Executive summary

  • Fiscal 2026 is pivotal, with momentum toward becoming a leading U.S. borate producer, supported by boron's addition to the U.S. critical minerals list and critical infrastructure designation.

  • Federal recognition of boron as a critical mineral validates the strategy, opening access to significant government funding and strategic partnerships.

  • Achieved operational milestones with successful boric acid shipments for specialty glass and boron carbide trials, advancing toward commercial production.

  • Issued a Preliminary Feasibility Study for a 130,000 short ton/year boric acid plant, confirming a 39.5-year mine life and 5.3 million short tons of reserves.

  • Completed equity offerings and a major debt-for-equity exchange, improving liquidity but still facing substantial going concern risks.

Financial highlights

  • Pre-feasibility study confirmed strong project economics: 39.5-year mine life, 19.2% pre-tax IRR, and $725 million pre-tax MTV for phase one of Fort Cady.

  • Net loss for the quarter was $10.7 million, a 17% improvement year-over-year due to lower project, facility, and administrative costs.

  • Cash and cash equivalents increased to $5.5 million as of September 30, 2025, following a $7.4 million equity raise.

  • $285 million letter of interest from the US Export-Import Bank under the Make More in America initiative.

  • No revenue generated; operations remain pre-revenue and dependent on external financing.

Outlook and guidance

  • Focus for the remainder of fiscal 2026: secure non-dilutive U.S. capital support, advance commercial offtake contracts, and execute feed and pre-FID workstreams for construction readiness in 2026.

  • Targeting FEL-3 engineering and final investment decision for commercial-scale facility by mid-2026, with initial commercial production expected in the second half of 2028.

  • Plans to optimize wellfield design, progress customer qualification, and pursue government and private financing.

  • Substantial doubt remains about the ability to continue as a going concern without additional financing within 12 months.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
