The Yorkville Debentures are convertible at the holder’s option at a conversion price equal to the lower of a fixed price (which shall be the higher of 140% of the NYSE closing price on the day prior to the initial closing and $3.79) or a variable price (95% of the lowest daily VWAP during the five trading days prior to conversion), subject to a floor price equal to 50% of the NYSE official closing price on the day prior to the date of issuance (which shall be reduced in certain circumstances, but in no event to less than 20% of such price). Subject to certain repayment limitations while convertible notes remain outstanding to Orion, the Company may redeem the Yorkville Debentures after 181 days at a 10% premium. Upon a change of control, Yorkville may require repurchase at a 10% premium. The Yorkville Debentures are subordinated to the Company’s obligations under the Notes.

Also included below are the key judgments and sources of estimation uncertainty that management has determined could have the most significant impact on the amounts recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Previous report
Assessment of Impairment of Thacker Pass
Previous report
The Company reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Once it is determined that impairment exists, an impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset carrying value exceeds its fair value. For asset groups where an impairment loss is determined using the discounted future net cash flows method, future cash flows are estimated based on quantities of recoverable mineralized material, expected lithium prices (considering current and historical prices, trends and related factors), production levels, operating costs, capital requirements and reclamation costs, all based on life-of-mine plans. The term “recoverable mineralized material” refers to the estimated amount of lithium or other commodities that will be obtained after considering losses during processing and treatment. The Company’s estimates of future cash flows are based on numerous assumptions and uncertainties. It is possible that actual future cash flows will be significantly different than the estimates, as actual future quantities of recoverable minerals, lithium and other commodity prices, production levels and costs of capital are each subject to significant risks and uncertainties.
Previous report
The Company determined that the JV is a variable interest entity due to its reliance on additional financing to complete Phase 1 of the development of Thacker Pass. The Company has determined it is the primary beneficiary of the JV due to the relative decision-making power of the parties over the most significant activities of the JV. As a result, the Company has consolidated Lithium Nevada Ventures in its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Previous report
Accounting and Valuation for Debt and Debt Facilities
Previous report
The Company accounts for debt instruments, including convertible debt and the DOE Loan, as financial liabilities recorded at amortized cost unless a fair value election is applied. Interest cost is capitalized where the proceeds are used to fund the development of qualifying assets. Initial proceeds received are allocated between the debt host and any embedded derivative and other instruments in the same transaction. Any resulting discount is accreted over the term of the debt instrument using the effective interest rate method.
Previous report
Embedded derivative features required to be separated by U.S. GAAP are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized through income or loss. The fair value of embedded derivative features require significant estimates and judgments to be made by management.
Previous report
Direct and incremental costs incurred to obtain a debt facility, including fees paid to the lender and third-party transaction costs, are deferred once the facility is considered probable and are recorded as deferred financing costs associated with the loan commitment and are reclassified as a discount on debt once drawn, in proportion to amounts borrowed in relation to total borrowings expected under the facility.
Previous report
Accounting and Valuation for Contracts on Own Equity
Previous report
Contracts or embedded derivative features to issue common shares, other than through share-based payments issued in connection with goods or services, are evaluated to determine whether they are classified as financial liabilities or equity. Contracts on the Company's own equity include the conversion feature in the convertible debt and the warrants and exchange obligations issued to the DOE. Contracts that may be settled net in cash outside the control of the Company or are not indexed to equity are treated as financial liabilities, recorded at fair value with changes recorded through income or loss. To the extent an instrument subsequently becomes indexed to own equity and is eligible to be classified as equity, it is reclassified to equity at its fair value on the date of reclassification. The Company’s obligations under the LAC Warrant to January 30, 2026 and the Company’s obligations under a JV Warrant Exchange are subject to estimation which includes, along with the price of the underlying equity, estimates of future share issuances through sale of shares or conversion of convertible debt. The value of the JV Warrant and LAC’s obligation in the event of a JV Warrant Exchange are also affected by future issuance of units.
Previous report
Royalties on future production or sales are reported based on their underlying characteristics. When indicated by their terms, royalties and production payments are treated as financial liabilities, such as those subject to call options for a specified price or those sold on proven properties and settleable with cash flows in which the Company has significant continuing involvement.

Given the advanced level of detailed engineering, the Company has commenced a definitive capital estimate, targeting completion in the second half of 2026.
