With Resilience, Growth, and Gratitude, Goldbelt Looks Forward to 2026

Dear Shareholders,

As we close out 2025, I want to thank Goldbelt’s owners, our shareholders, for guiding Goldbelt’s journey and for being the motivation behind the work we do every day.

Goldbelt’s mission, vision, and values shape how we create opportunity and long-term prosperity for our people. That direction is informed by you. Your trust, engagement, and participation as owners guide how the corporation plans, invests, and grows.

One of the most significant milestones this year was the passage of the Goldbelt Elders’ Trust, approved by shareholders and rooted in our shared responsibility to care for Elders and strengthen generational well-being. The Trust has been established, and Goldbelt will continue investing in the principal until it is endowed and able to issue annual payments to Elders age 60 and over.

The first Elder benefit payment was paid by the Tináa Distributions Trust at $5 per share, just before Christmas. This benefit goes to Elders 65 and older and will continue as a placeholder until the Elders’ Trust is fully endowed.

On April 5, 2025, the Goldbelt Ancestral Trust’s Board of Trustees approved Resolution 25-04, authorizing the first distribution from the Ancestral Trust to original shareholders and shareholders who are their direct descendants. Goldbelt delivered the inaugural $5 per share payment from the Ancestral Trust, issued decades sooner than planned, totaling $1,215,000. Together, these actions reflect Goldbelt’s purpose and our commitment to building enduring value for generations.

Throughout 2025, Goldbelt advanced long-term investments aligned with owner priorities. We announced the Goldbelt Aaní Port project, positioning the corporation for sustained regional impact and future opportunity. We also celebrated the naming of Goldbelt Transportation’s new catamaran, Goldbelt Áakʼw Tide, selected by a shareholder and reflecting our cultural connection and shared identity.

This year also tested our preparedness and resolve. Uncertainty began with the DOGE efforts to reduce the size of the federal government, pausing work on some Goldbelt contracts and canceling others. During the federal government shutdown, Goldbelt’s planning, strategy, and diversified portfolio were put to the test. Because of disciplined decision-making and long-term foresight, the corporation remained resilient and well positioned, reinforcing the importance of strategic planning, thoughtful growth, and risk management on behalf of owners.

Connection with shareholders remained central to our work. Engagement at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders, Shareholder Opportunity Meetings, Virtual Town Halls, and community events continues to shape how Goldbelt listens, responds, and moves forward.

From a performance standpoint, 2025 was a very strong year. Consistent profits strengthen Goldbelt’s ability to reinvest responsibly, support shareholder benefits, and continue building generational wealth. These outcomes reflect a strategy designed to serve owners today and into the future.

Thank you again for your trust and commitment as owners. Goldbelt is a forever company. As we look to 2026, Goldbelt remains focused on advancing opportunities in ways that honor our values and reflect your vision.

Gunalchéesh,
McHugh Pierre
President & CEO
