Provides Status Update on Late Filing of Financial Statements
November 25, 2005… Toronto, Ontario – Kinross Gold Corporation (“Kinross” or the
“Company”)
(TSX-K; NYSE-KGC). Pursuant to the alternative information guidelines of the
Ontario Securities Commission (“OSC”) Policy 57-603 and Canadian Securities Administrators
Staff Notice 57-301, Kinross is providing bi-weekly updates to the market regarding the process
relating to the preparation and filing of its financial statements and related matters, until such
time as Kinross is current with its filing obligations under Canadian securities laws.
Kinross expects that next week it will file its audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2004 including the comparative audited restated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2003 and its related management discussion and analysis. At the same
time, Kinross will file its restated quarterly financial statements for 2004.
Kinross will then work to finalize and file its quarterly financial statements for 2005 and other
required regulatory filings in order to bring the Company current.
Upon completing its audited financial statements, Kinross will be in a position to announce a
date for its 2004 annual and special shareholders meeting. Kinross anticipates holding its
shareholders meeting before the end of January 2006. Kinross will make an application to the
Ontario Superior Court of Justice to obtain an extension to the previous order, obtained in June
2005, which required Kinross to hold its shareholders meeting by December 31, 2005.
We are issuing bi-weekly updates as to the status and timing which can be viewed on our
website at www.kinross.com. The next update is scheduled for the week of December 5, 2005.
