URANIUM ENERGY CORP

Previous wording

As more fully described under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” of Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations, herein, we have a history of significant negative cash flow and net losses, with an accumulated deficit balance of $349.29 million as of January 31, 2025. Historically, we have been reliant primarily on equity financings from the sale of our common stock in order to fund our operations. Although we generated revenues from sales of U 3 O 8 we extracted during Fiscal 2015, Fiscal 2013 and Fiscal 2012 of $3.08 million, $9.03 million and $13.76 million, respectively, and generated revenues from sales of purchased uranium inventory totaling $66.84 million during the six months ended January 31, 2025 , we have yet to achieve consistent profitability or develop consistent positive cash flow from our operations, and we do not expect to achieve consistent profitability or develop consistent positive cash flow from operations in the near term. As a result of our limited financial and operating history, including our significant negative cash flow from operations and net losses to date, it may be difficult to evaluate our future performance.

Previous wording

As at January 31, 2025, we had working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $126.45 million including cash and cash equivalents of $61.51 million and purchased uranium inventory holdings of $72.90 million. Subsequent to January 31, 2025, we received additional net cash proceeds of $2.04 million under our 2024 ATM Offering. We believe that our existing cash resources and, if necessary, cash generated from the sale of the Company’s liquid assets, will provide sufficient funds to carry out our planned operations for 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report. Our continuation as a going concern for a period beyond those 12 months will be dependent upon our ability to obtain adequate additional financing, as our operations are capital intensive and future capital expenditures are expected to be substantial. Our continued operations, including the recoverability of the carrying values of our assets, are dependent ultimately on our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow from our operations.

Previous wording

We have a limited history of uranium extraction and generating revenue. In November 2010, we commenced uranium extraction at our Palangana Mine, which has been our sole source of revenues from the sales of produced U 3 O 8 during Fiscal 2015, Fiscal 2013 and Fiscal 2012, with no revenues from sales of produced U 3 O 8 during the six months ended January 31, 2025, or any other fiscal years. In August 2024, we restarted uranium extraction at our fully permitted, and past producing, Christensen Ranch Mine ISR operation in Wyoming. We expect the ramp-up phase will continue while new production areas are being constructed and completed in 2025.

Previous wording

We are responsible for certain remediation and decommissioning activities in the future, primarily for our Hobson and Irigaray Processing Facilities, our ISR Mines, Roughrider Project and our recently acquired Sweetwater Acquisition assets, and have recorded a liability of $30.63 million on our balance sheet at January 31, 2025, to recognize the present value of the estimated costs of such reclamation obligations. Should the actual costs to fulfill these future reclamation obligations materially exceed these estimated costs, it may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results, including not having the financial resources required to fulfill such obligations when required to do so.

Current wording

We are responsible for certain remediation and decommissioning activities in the future, primarily for our Hobson and Irigaray Processing Facilities, our ISR Mines, Roughrider Project and our recently acquired Sweetwater Acquisition assets, and have recorded a liability of $38.72 million on our balance sheet at April 30, 2025, to recognize the present value of the estimated costs of such reclamation obligations.

Previous wording

As at January 31, 2025, the total estimated reclamation costs for all of our projects was $50.30 million. We have secured $50.65 million of surety bonds as an alternate source of financial assurance for the estimated costs of the reclamation obligations, of which $9.21 million is funded and held as restricted cash for collateral purposes as required by the surety. We may be required at any time to fund the remaining $41.44 million or any portion thereof for a number of reasons including, but not limited to, the following: (i) the terms of the surety bonds are amended, such as an increase in collateral requirements; (ii) we are in default with the terms of the surety bonds; (iii) the surety bonds are no longer acceptable as an alternate source of financial assurance by the regulatory authorities; or (iv) the surety encounters financial difficulties. Should any one or more of these events occur in the future, we may not have the financial resources to fund the remaining amount or any portion thereof when required to do so.

Changes in tariffs, duties and other trade policies may impact the demand for uranium and the costs of products we require to operate and develop our projects. On February 1, 2025, the President of the United States signed executive orders directing the United States to impose tariffs on goods originating from Canada, Mexico and China. In the case of Canadian goods, these measures took effect on March 4, 2025 and include an additional 25% tariff on goods originating from Canada, except for Canadian energy products, which include critical minerals such as uranium that are subject to a lower rate of 10%. These tariffs took effect in March 2025, with tariffs on certain goods of Mexican origin delayed until April 2, 2025. On March 4, 2025, Canada also announced additional 25% tariffs against certain goods of United States origin, including uranium. The United States has also discussed additional potential future tariffs on goods originating from the European Union. These developments are ongoing and are subject to change, including the imposition of additional tariffs and retaliatory measures by these and other countries. Depending on their extent, scope and duration, these tariffs and retaliatory measures may result in increased costs for any equipment and other goods we require to operate and develop our projects in accordance with our current plans. At the same time, it is possible that these tariffs and other measures may benefit certain aspects of our business, including by increasing demand for uranium produced in the United States. Although discussions continue regarding potential economic arrangements between these countries, there remains significant uncertainty over the scope, impact and duration of any tariffs and retaliatory measures, and they may, among other things, adversely impact general economic conditions, including the market and demand for uranium and our business financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, in 2025, the United States government instituted a ban on the import of low-enriched uranium from Russia. If the United States Government reduces or rescinds any sanctions or restrictive measures that currently limit U.S. imports of uranium from other countries, such modification could adversely affect the market for uranium of United States origin and could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Previous wording

In March 2020 the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a black swan event impacting about 50% of the world’s uranium production and has accelerated the market rebalancing. In 2020 significant production cuts were announced in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, including uranium facilities in Canada, Kazakhstan and Namibia. In 2024 most production impacted by COVID-19 has returned to an operating status. The Company also believes that a large degree of uncertainty exists in the market, primarily due to the size of mobile uranium inventories, transportation issues, premature reactor shutdowns in the U.S. and the length of time of any uranium mine, conversion or enrichment facility shutdowns.

We are authorized to issue 750,000,000 shares of common stock of which 428,412,265 shares were issued and outstanding as of January 31, 2025. Future issuances for financings, mergers and acquisitions, exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants and for other reasons may result in significant dilution to and be issued at prices substantially below the price paid for our shares held by our existing stockholders. Significant dilution would reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power held by our existing stockholders and may result in a decrease in the market price of our shares.
