Investor presentation summary
5 Feb, 2026Equity raising and financial flexibility
Raising approximately A$76M through a non-underwritten institutional placement and up to A$5M via a share purchase plan to enhance financial flexibility during ramp-up at Kayelekera.
Pro-forma unaudited cash post-raise is A$145M, supporting project execution, working capital, and contingency liquidity.
Offer price set at A$2.15 per share, a 25.3% discount to the last closing price, with new shares representing ~15% of issued capital.
Funds will support acid plant and grid connection projects, working capital, TSF lift, and Letlhakane development.
Additional liquidity options include inventory pre-payment facilities under negotiation.

Targeting steady state production of ~200klb/month (~2.4Mlbpa) and first shipment in Q2 CY2026, with first cash receipts in Q3 CY2026.
First drummed uranium produced in Q3 CY2025, within the US$50M restart budget.
Acid plant commissioning expected by end of Q1 CY2026; grid connection completion targeted by end of CY2026.
Owner-operator mining implemented, with over 700 full-time employees and strong safety record.
Product qualification with converters ongoing, with final acceptance anticipated in February 2026.
Offtake strategy and market positioning
Strong contract book with high-quality counterparties secures attractive margins; ~80% of LOM production remains uncontracted for market upside.
Four binding offtake agreements for 3.5Mlbs with fixed, base-escalated pricing; initial forward contracts for 0.25Mlbs across 2026/27.
Ability to swap between converters provides delivery flexibility across contracts.
