**CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the exhibits attached hereto (the "**Quarterly Report**") contain "forward-looking statements" and "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable United States ("**U.S.**") and Canadian securities laws (collectively, "**forward-looking statements**"), which may include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to Energy Fuels Inc.'s (the "**Company**" or "**Energy Fuels,**" "**we,**" "**us**" or "**our**"): anticipated results and progress of our operations in future periods; planned exploration, development and operation of our mineral properties; plans related to our business, including the ramp-up of uranium production and the expansion of our rare earth element ("**REE**") and heavy mineral sands ("**HMS**") initiatives; our continued development of capabilities for the commercial separation of REEs at our White Mesa Mill (the "**White Mesa Mill**" or the "**Mill**") in Utah; development activities at our South Bahia HMS and REE project in Brazil (the "**Bahia Project**"); our reclamation activities at the Kwale HMS Project in Kenya (the "**Kwale Project**") and development activities at the Vara Mada REE and HMS Project in Madagascar (the "**Vara Mada Project**," formerly known as the Toliara Project), which were acquired through our acquisition of Base Resources Limited ("**Base Resources**" or "**Base**") on October 2, 2024; the potential earn-in of up to a 49% joint venture interest in the Donald REE and HMS Project in Australia (the "**Donald Project**"); plans related to the potential recovery of radioisotopes at the Mill for use in targeted alpha therapy ("**TAT**") medical treatments; any plans related to the acquisition of additional uranium, uranium/vanadium, REE or HMS mineral properties; any plans related to the acquisition of metal-and-alloy or other projects to build out an ex-China supply chain; expectations regarding production levels, costs, margins and timing; historic and estimated Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves; maintenance and renewal of permits; expectations regarding political or government stability and regulatory conditions in jurisdictions in which we operate; expectations regarding the formalization of fiscal and other terms applicable to the Vara Mada Project with the Government of Madagascar through an investment agreement, amendments to existing laws or other mechanisms; any expectation that positive final investment decisions ("**FID**" or "**FIDs**") will be made for the Vara Mada Project, Donald Project and/or Bahia Project, or that any such projects will be developed; and any expectations regarding the outcome(s) of any pending or future litigation. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management.

Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, schedules, assumptions, future events or performance (often, but not always, identified by words or phrases such as "expects," "does not expect," "is expected," "is likely," "budgets," "scheduled," "forecasts," "intends," "anticipates," "does not anticipate," "continues," "plans," "estimates," "believes," or similar expressions or variations of such words and phrases, or statements that certain actions, events or results "may," "could," "would" "might," or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to be correct, and forward-looking statements included in, or incorporated by reference into, this Quarterly Report should not be unduly relied upon.

Readers are cautioned that it would be unreasonable to rely on any forward-looking statements as creating any legal rights, that such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, and that actual results are likely to differ, and may differ materially, and objectives, plans and strategies may differ or change, from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: global economic risks, including the occurrence of pandemics or other widespread health emergencies, political unrest or wars, or the imposition of tariffs or other trade restrictions that affect global markets; cybersecurity risks associated with critical and other highly sensitive minerals of international interest; litigation risks; risks associated with the restart, ramp-up and operation of our uranium, uranium/vanadium and REE and HMS mines and processing facilities; risks associated with our commercial production of separated REE oxides and the planned expansion of such production; risks associated with the exploration, permitting and development of the Vara Mada Project in Madagascar, the Donald Project in Australia and/or the Bahia Project in Brazil; risks associated with the reclamation and closure of the Kwale Project in Kenya; risks associated with the potential recovery of radioisotopes for use in the Company's TAT initiatives; risks associated with successfully completing and integrating business and mineral acquisitions; risks associated with joint ventures; international risks, including geopolitical and country risks; risks associated with negotiating and maintaining satisfactory fiscal and stability arrangements and obtaining foreign government approvals on a timely basis or at all, including expropriation risks; risks associated with the failure of the Government of Madagascar to formalize suitable fiscal and other terms applicable to the Vara Mada Project through an investment agreement, amendments to existing laws or other mechanisms, on a timely basis or at all; risks related to the Vara Mada Project associated with social unrest and political instability in Madagascar; risks associated with increased regulatory requirements applicable to our operations; and risks generally encountered in the exploration, development, operation, closure and reclamation of mineral properties and processing

Such forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions made by management as of the date such statements are made, many of which are inherently uncertain and may prove to be incorrect, including, but not limited to, assumptions: that there is no material deterioration in general business, economic or market conditions; that interest rates and foreign exchange rates do not fluctuate materially beyond current expectations; that the supply of, demand for, deliveries of, and the level and volatility of prices for uranium, vanadium, REE products, HMC, HMS products and our other primary metals, radioisotopes and minerals develop as anticipated; that commodity prices required to reach, sustain or increase expected or forecasted production levels are realized; that our production of separated REE oxides or other proposed REE activities, our HMS production, our proposed radioisotope program, or other potential production activities will be technically and commercially successful; that there are no material mining, processing and/or reclamation upsets; that we receive required regulatory and governmental approvals on a timely basis or at all; that licenses and permits are renewed as required; that financing is available on acceptable terms or at all; and that the Company is able to maintain constructive relationships with employees, contractors, business partners and joint venture partners.

This list of assumptions is not exhaustive. Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements are described elsewhere in the Quarterly Report, including under Part I, Item 2. *Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations*, and

**CAUTIONARY NOTE TO INVESTORS CONCERNING** 

**DISCLOSURE OF MINERAL RESOURCES AND RESERVES** 

We are a U.S. domestic issuer for United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**SEC**") reporting purposes, a majority of our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents, we are required to report our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("**U.S. GAAP**") and our primary trading market is the NYSE American. However, because we are also listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("**TSX**") and are a reporting issuer in Canada, this Quarterly Report also contains or incorporates by reference certain disclosure that satisfies the additional requirements of Canadian securities laws that differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws.

All mineral estimates constituting mining operations that are material to our business or financial condition included in this Quarterly Report, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein, have been prepared in accordance with both 17 CFR Subparts 220.1300 and 229.601(b)(96) (collectively, "**S-K 1300**"), the SEC's mining disclosure framework, and Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - *Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects* ("**NI 43-101**"), a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Furthermore, all mineral estimates constituting mining operations that are material to our business or financial condition included in this Quarterly Report are supported by pre-feasibility studies and/or initial assessments prepared in accordance with both the requirements of S-K 1300 and NI 43-101. S-K 1300 and NI 43-101 both provide for the disclosure of: (i) "Inferred Mineral Resources," which investors should understand have the lowest level of geological confidence of all mineral resources and thus may not be considered when assessing the economic viability of a mining project and may not be converted to a Mineral Reserve; (ii) "Indicated Mineral Resources," which investors should understand have a lower level of confidence than that of a "Measured Mineral Resource" and thus may be converted only to a "Probable Mineral Reserve"; and (iii) "Measured Mineral Resources," which investors should understand have sufficient geological certainty to be converted to a "Proven Mineral Reserve" or to a "Probable Mineral Reserve." **Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into Mineral Reserves as defined by S-K 1300 or NI 43-101. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource exists or is economically or legally mineable, or that an Inferred Mineral Resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category.** 

For purposes of S-K 1300 and NI 43-101, as of March 31, 2026, the Company is classified as a production stage issuer because it is engaged in the material extraction of Mineral Reserves on at least one material property. In late 2023, the Company commenced uranium production at three of its material properties, namely the Pinyon Plain Project and the La Sal and Pandora mines (each of the La Sal and Pandora mines constitutes a portion of the La Sal Project). The Pinyon Plain Project includes a Mineral Reserve and is considered by the Company to have reached viable commercial production as of April 1, 2024.

All mineral disclosure reported in this Quarterly Report has been prepared in accordance with the definitions of both S-K 1300 and NI 43-101.

**ENERGY FUELS INC.**

**NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

*(unaudited) (Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share amounts)*

**1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;THE COMPANY AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS**

Energy Fuels Inc. and its subsidiary companies (collectively, the "**Company**", "**Energy Fuels**" or "**our**") produce several of the critical materials essential to United States ("**U.S.**") energy security and other advanced technologies, including uranium, vanadium, Rare Earth Elements ("**REEs**") and heavy mineral sands ("**HMS**"), in an effort to strengthen domestic supply chains and reduce reliance on foreign-controlled sources. The White Mesa Mill (the "**White Mesa Mill**" or the "**Mill**"), located in Utah, is a key asset strengthen domestic supply chains due to its ability to process uranium, vanadium, REE products, and, potentially, radioisotopes.

Uranium is used as fuel for nuclear power generation. The Company is engaged in conventional and in situ recovery ("**ISR**") uranium exploration, evaluation, permitting (as applicable), extraction, recovery and sale of uranium from its mineral properties primarily located in the U.S. The Company's Pinyon Plain, Whirlwind, La Sal, Bullfrog, Arizona Strip and Roca Honda projects are U.S.-based conventional uranium mining projects located on the Colorado Plateau and within trucking distance of the Mill. The Sheep Mountain Project is a uranium project located in Wyoming, U.S.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company is producing mineralized material at its Pinyon Plain, La Sal and Pandora projects, as well as exploration drilling and analysis activities at its Pinyon Plain and Nichols Ranch projects. Other conventional uranium mining projects were on standby, under evaluation for future mining and related activities and/or in various stages of permitting. The Company's Nichols Ranch Project (inclusive of the Jane Dough and Hank satellite deposits) is an ISR uranium project located in Wyoming, U.S.

The Company also produces vanadium pentoxide ("**V₂O₅**") as a co-product of uranium recovery at the Mill from certain of its Colorado Plateau properties and, at times, from solutions recovered from the Mill's tailings impoundment system, each as market conditions warrant.

The Company conducts a uranium recycling program, which includes the processing of uranium from uranium-bearing materials not derived from natural or native ores ("**Alternate Feed Materials**"), the recycling of tailings solutions, and other activities associated with the recovery of uranium, vanadium and potentially other metals and radionuclides.

In addition, the Company is evaluating the potential to recover radioisotopes from its existing uranium processing streams at the Mill for use in targeted alpha therapy ("**TAT**") medical treatments.

REEs are used to manufacture permanent magnets for electric vehicles ("**EVs**"), defense systems, wind turbines, robotics and other clean energy and advanced technologies. The Company has advanced REE separation capabilities at the Mill to produce both 'light' and 'heavy' separated REE oxides. Additionally, the Mill has produced separated neodymium/praseodymium ("**NdPr**") at commercial scale. Additionally, the Mill has produced on-spec dysprosium ("**Dy**") oxide and terbium ("**Tb**") oxide at the Mill at pilot scale. The Company is piloting samarium ("**Sm**") oxide successfully at the Mill. NdPr, Dy, Tb and Sm are REEs that are classified as critical minerals in the U.S.

The Company's HMS projects contain titanium, zirconium and monazite. Titanium, which is produced from ilmenite and rutile, is used for aircraft engines and frames, spacecraft components, medical devices, pigments and other industrial and consumer goods uses. Zirconium is used for fuel rod cladding and reactor components for nuclear power plants, high-temperature parts in jet engines and spacecraft, metal alloys, ceramics, and abrasives and other uses in the medical field and chemical industry. The monazite is expected to provide feed for the Mill for the recovery of REEs and uranium.

The Company's REE/HMS projects include the Vara Mada REE and HMS project in Toliara, Madagascar (the "**Vara Mada Project,**" formerly known as the Toliara Project), which is a permitting/development stage property for the potential production of HMS products that would be sold into the commercial HMS product market while the associated monazite would be used as a feedstock ore for production of REEs and uranium at the Mill.

The Company also owns the Bahia REE and HMS project in Brazil (the "**Bahia Project**"), which is an exploration/permitting stage property for the potential production of heavy mineral concentrate ("**HMC**") that would be sold into the commercial HMC market while the associated monazite is expected to be used as a feedstock ore for the recovery of REEs and uranium at the Mill.

The Company has a joint venture (the "**Donald Project JV**") with Astron Corporation Limited ("**Astron**") to jointly develop and operate the Donald REE and HMS Project in Australia (the "**Donald Project**"), which is a fully permitted development stage property also for the potential production of HMC that would be sold into the commercial HMC market while the associated monazite is expected to be used as feedstock ore for the recovery of REEs and uranium at the Mill.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company is a "production stage issuer," as defined by Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K, because it is engaged in the material extraction of Mineral Reserves on at least one material property.

<u>Proposed Acquisition of Australian Strategic Materials Limited</u>

The Company entered into a definitive agreement on January 20, 2026, as amended on March 12, 2026, to acquire 100% of the issued share capital of Australian Strategic Materials Limited ("**ASM**") by way of a scheme of arrangement under Australian law. ASM is an Australian-based critical materials company with REE mining, processing, and metallization assets, including the Dubbo Project in New South Wales, a metallization and alloying facility in South Korea and plans to potentially construct a metallization and alloying facility in the U.S. Under the terms of the transaction, ASM shareholders will be entitled to receive 0.053 Common Shares (or CHESS Depositary Interests) for each ASM ordinary share held, and up to AUD$0.13 per ASM share in cash, subject to customary conditions. ASM option holders are expected to receive cash consideration of AUD$0.50 per option under a concurrent option scheme of arrangement.

The transaction remains subject to court, regulatory and shareholder approval under the Australian scheme of arrangement process. Australian foreign investment approval has been obtained. The Company expects the transaction to close as early as July 2026.

**2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Basis of Presentation**

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("**SEC**") applicable to interim financial information and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and the summary of significant accounting policies included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which was filed with the SEC on February 26, 2026.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("**U.S. GAAP**") for interim financial information, and, accordingly, do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands of U.S. dollars, except for share and per share amounts. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

In management's opinion, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows on a basis consistent with that of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. However, the results of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

**Principles of Consolidation**

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains and losses on transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated.

**Segment Information**

The Company regularly reviews its segment reporting for alignment with its strategic goals and operational structure, as well as for evaluation of business performance and allocation of resources by the chief operating decision maker ("**CODM**"), who is the Company's Chief Executive Officer and its President. The CODM primarily uses operating income (loss) to evaluate the performance of the Company's reportable segments.

**Recently Issued Accounting Standard**

***Disaggregated Income Statement Expense***

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)*, which requires expanded disclosures regarding the nature of expenses included within certain income statement line items. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and does not expect adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

**3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MARKETABLE SECURITIES**

Management invests excess cash in U.S. government notes, U.S. government agencies and tradeable certificates of deposits. After consideration of the Company's risk versus reward objectives and its liquidity requirements, the Company elected the fair value option for its marketable debt securities because the Company may sell them prior to their stated maturities. Under the fair value option, these instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at their fair value including interest income. Changes in fair value and interest income are recorded in *Other income (loss)* in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company's marketable debt securities are classified as current based on management's intent to use the investments to manage excess cash and liquidity needs. While certain investments have stated contractual maturity dates greater than one year, including marketable debt securities invested in U.S. government notes, U.S. government agencies and tradeable certificates of deposits, the Company may sell investments prior to maturity or reinvest excess cash in accordance with its cash management policy.

On June 30, 2025, the Company entered into an amendment to the JV Agreements whereby the Company advanced AUD$13.00 million ($8.52 million) to the Donald Project JV for the acquisition of certain land and properties (the "**First Advance**"). In addition, pursuant to a subsequent amendment to the JV Agreements, the Company agreed to advance (the "**Second Advanc**e", together with the First Advance, the "**Advances**") additional cash to purchase mineral separation equipment, of which AUD$2.87 million ($1.91 million) had been advanced as of December 31, 2025, with an additional AUD$6.70 million ($4.60 million at March 31, 2026 exchange rates) to be advanced subject to the satisfaction of contractual conditions.

The First Advance is secured by the underlying land and properties acquired while the Second Advance is secured by the mineral separation equipment acquired by the Donald Project JV. The Advances do not bear interest unless in the case of default. If a positive final investment decision ("**FID**") is made on the Donald Project, the outstanding Advances will be applied to the Company's earn-in interest in the Donald Project JV. If a positive FID is not made, the Advances shall become due and payable subject to the terms of the JV Agreements, as amended. As the Advances are convertible into equity under specified circumstances, the Company accounts for the Advances as long-term marketable debt securities for which it has elected the fair value option, and changes in fair value are recorded in *Other income (loss)* in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. As of March 31, 2026, a FID has not been made on the Donald Project JV.

**7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;INVESTMENTS**

**Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates**

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company owned a 10.50% and 9.48% equity interest in the Donald Project JV, respectively.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company owned a 27.73% interest in Tate Transition Metals Limited ("**Tate**"). On April 1, 2025, the Company invested an additional AUD$1.75 million ($1.11 million) in Tate, which increased its ownership from 19.90% to 27.73% as of April 1, 2025. As a result, the Company exercises significant influence, but not control, over Tate and beginning April 1, 2025, accounts for its investment in Tate using the equity method of accounting.

The Company uses the equity method of accounting to account for its investments in the Donald Project JV and Tate because it exercises significant influence, but not control, over the entities. The Company's judgment regarding the level of influence over its equity investments includes considering key factors such as its ownership interest, representation on the applicable Board of Directors and participation in policy-making decisions.

**9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;CONVERTIBLE SENIOR NOTES**

**2025 Convertible Senior Notes** 

On September 30, 2025, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with the initial purchasers (the "**Purchasers**"), relating to the issuance and sale of $600.00 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the "**Notes**"). The Purchasers exercised their option to purchase an additional $100.00 million aggregate principal amount of Notes in full on October 1, 2025, resulting in a total issuance of $700.00 million aggregate principal amount of Notes. The offering closed on October 3, 2025.

Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $674.67 million after deducting purchasers' discounts, commissions, and estimated offering expenses. The Company used $53.55 million of these proceeds to enter into the privately negotiated capped call transactions ("**Capped Calls**"), with the remainder intended to support development activities at the Mill and the Donald Project, along with general corporate and working capital needs.

The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture dated October 3, 2025. The Notes are unsecured and bear interest at 0.75% per year, payable semiannually on May 1 and November 1, beginning May 1, 2026. The Notes mature on November 1, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased.

<u>[Tabl](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[e of](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[Con](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[tent](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[s](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)</u>

Prior to August 1, 2031, holders may convert the Notes only upon the occurrence of specified events; thereafter, the Notes are convertible at any time until the second scheduled trading day before maturity. The initial conversion rate is 49.1672 shares per $1,000 principal amount (conversion price of approximately $20.34 per Common Share), subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The Company may settle conversions in cash, shares, or a combination of cash and shares.

The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to November 6, 2028, except as provided in the Indenture. On or after that date, the Company may redeem the Notes if its common share price is at least 130% of the conversion price for a specified period. Upon a fundamental change, holders may require the Company to repurchase their Notes at 100% of principal, plus accrued interest.

The Notes are accounted for as a single liability measured at amortized cost, with issuance costs amortized over the contractual term.

The net carrying value of the liability component and unamortized debt issuance costs of the Notes was as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **March 31, 2026** | **December 31, 2025** |
| 2025 convertible senior notes - principal | $700000 | $700000 |
| Less: unamortized debt issuance costs | (23312) | (24312) |
| Convertible senior notes, net | $676688 | $675688 |

---

The following table sets forth the interest expense recognized related to debt instrument for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Contractual interest expense | $1298 |
| Amortization of debt issuance costs | 1000 |
| Total interest expense | $2298 |

---

The effective interest rate of the Notes was 1.38%, which includes the amortization of debt issuance costs.

**Capped Calls**

In connection with the pricing of the Notes on September 30, 2025 and the Purchasers' full exercise of the option to purchase additional Notes on October 1, 2025, the Company entered into Capped Calls with the option counterparties. The Capped Calls entered into by the Company with the option counterparties are intended to reduce potential dilution to the common shares upon conversion of the Notes and/or offset potential cash payments the Company may be required to make in excess of the principal amount of the Notes, with such reduction or offset subject to a cap.

The Capped Calls are subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the Notes. The capped calls are separate transactions, entered into by the Company with the option counterparties and do not form part of the terms of the Notes.

The following table sets forth key terms and costs incurred for the Capped Calls related to the Notes:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Initial strike price per common share, subject to certain adjustments | $20.34 |
| Initial cap price per common share, subject to certain adjustments | $30.70 |
| Capped Call costs | $53550 |
| Common shares covered, subject to anti-dilution adjustments | 34417 |

Existing equity incentive awards include employee non-qualified stock options, RSUs and SARs. The Company issues new Common Shares to satisfy exercises and vesting under its equity incentive awards. Under the Compensation Plan, full value awards mean any award other than employee non-qualified stock options, SARs or similar awards, the value of which non-qualified stock options, SARs or similar awards are based solely on an increase in the value of the Common shares over the grant price, option price or similar exercise price applicable to such award ("**Full Value Awards**"). The number of Common Shares reserved for issuance to participants under the Compensation Plan shall not exceed 17,500,000 (the "**Total Share Authorization**"). In addition to being subject to the Total Share Authorization limit, the aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under all Full Value Awards shall not exceed 12,500,000 (the "**Full Value Share Authorization**"). As of March 31, 2026, the total Common Shares authorized for future equity incentive plan awards was 10,608,106 Common Shares under the Total Share Authorization and 9,987,836 Common Shares under the Full Value Share Authorization.

The Company's share-based compensation expense, by type of award, is as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three Months Ended March 31,** | **Three Months Ended March 31,** |
| | **2026** | **2025** |
| RSUs<sup>(1)</sup> | $2388 | $2007 |
| SARs |  | 7 |
| Stock options | 1260 | 818 |
| Total share-based compensation expense<sup>(2)</sup> | $3648 | $2832 |

---

(1)The fair value of the RSUs granted under the Compensation Plan was determined as the higher of the Company's closing share price on the NYSE American on the last trading day before the date of grant and the five-day volume-weighted average price ("**VWAP**") on the NYSE American ending on the last trading day before the grant date.

(2)Share-based compensation is included in *Selling, general and administration* and *Exploration, development and processing* in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, the Company capitalized $0.14 million and $0.23 million of share-based compensation expense to *Mineral properties* on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.

As of March 31, 2026, there were $9.17 million and $4.58 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to the unvested RSUs and stock options, respectively which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years and 1.6 years, respectively. There is no unrecognized expense remaining related to the SARs as of March 31, 2026.

**Restricted Stock Units**

The Company grants RSUs to directors, executives and eligible employees. Awards for executives and eligible employees are determined as a target percentage of base salary and generally vest over three years. Holders of unvested RSUs do not have voting rights on those RSUs. The RSUs are subject to forfeiture risk and other restrictions. Upon vesting, the employee is entitled to receive one Common Share of the Company for each RSU at no additional payment.

The Company has no unvested SARs as of March 31, 2026.

**Stock Options**

The Company may grant stock options to directors, executives, employees and consultants to purchase Common Shares of the Company. The exercise price of the stock options is set as the higher of the Company's closing share price on the NYSE American on the last trading day before the date of grant and the five-day VWAP on the NYSE American ending on the last trading day before the grant date. Stock options granted generally vest over a period of two years or more and are generally exercisable over a period of five years from the grant date, such period not to exceed 10 years.

<u>Performance-Based Stock Options</u>

The Company grants stock options to its executives and certain other high-level employees intended to incentivize them to achieve the Company's strategic long-term goals over the specified terms of the grants, based on significant common share price growth objectives, and to reward them for achieving those growth objectives. The grants entitle the recipients to purchase one Common Share of the Company at an exercise price being a 10% premium to the higher of (i) the VWAP of the Common Shares of the Company on the NYSE American for the five trading days ending on the last trading day prior to the date of the meeting when granted, and (ii) the closing price of the common shares of the Company on the NYSE American on the last trading day prior to the date of such meeting (the "**Performance-Based Options**"). The Performance-Based Options vest as to 50% one year following the grant date and as to the remaining 50% two years following the grant date. The term of the Performance-Based Options is five years.

The fair value of all stock options, including Performance-Based Options, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was estimated at the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes Option Valuation Model, with the following weighted average assumptions:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Risk-free interest rate | 3.6% |
| Expected life | 3.3 years |
| Expected volatility<sup>(1)</sup> | 64.5% |
| Expected dividend yield | —% |
| Weighted average grant date fair value | $10.55 |

**13.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;INCOME TAXES**

As of March 31, 2026, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. The Company continually reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowance and intends to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or a portion of the allowance. Should the Company's assessment change in a future period, it may release all or a portion of the valuation allowance, which would result in a deferred tax benefit in the period of adjustment.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $0.05 million on loss before tax of $10.91 million with an effective tax rate of 0.4% in 2026. The tax expense consists primarily of Brazil income tax arising from the transfer pricing revenue recognized. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.15 million on loss before tax of $27.47 million. The effective tax rate was 4% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which was a result of the full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets. The tax benefit consists of the reversal of the tax liability for Base Titanium Limited ("**Base Titanium**") that was recorded primarily prior to the acquisition of Base Resources Limited ("**Base Resources**") in 2024. As production of the Kwale mine has now ceased, a tax loss is expected for the year, and the liability has been reversed.

**15.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

**General Legal Matters**

Other than routine litigation incidental to our business, or as described below, the Company is not currently a party to any material, pending legal proceedings that management believes would be likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

***White Mesa Mill***

In 2011, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe filed an administrative appeal of the State of Utah Division of Air Quality's decision to approve a Modification to the Air Quality Approval Order at the Mill. Then, in 2013, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe filed a Petition to Intervene and Request for Agency Action challenging the Corrective Action Plan approved by the State of Utah Department of Environmental Quality ("**UDEQ**") relating to nitrate contamination in the shallow aquifer at the Mill. In August 2014, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe filed an administrative appeal to the Utah Division of Radiation Control's ("**DRC**") Radioactive Materials License Amendment 7 approval regarding alternate feed material from Dawn Mining. The challenges remain open at this time and may involve the appointment of an administrative law judge ("**ALJ**") to hear the matters. The Company does not consider these actions to have any merit. If the petitions are successful, the likely outcome would be a requirement to modify or replace the existing Air Quality Approval Order, Corrective Action Plan or license amendment, as applicable. At this time, the Company does not believe any such modifications or replacements would materially affect its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the scope and costs of remediation under a revised or replaced Air Quality Approval Order, Corrective Action Plan and/or license amendment have not yet been determined and could be significant.

On January 19, 2018, UDEQ renewed, and on February 16, 2018 reissued, the Mill's License for another ten years and the Groundwater Discharge Permit ("**GWDP**") for another five years, after which further applications for renewal of the License and GWDP will need to be submitted. During the review period for each application for renewal, the Mill can continue to operate under its then existing License and GWDP until such time as the renewed License or GWDP is issued. Most recently, on July 15, 2022, the routine GWDP renewal application was submitted to UDEQ for consideration.

In 2018, the Grand Canyon Trust, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and Uranium Watch (collectively, the "**Mill Plaintiffs**") served Petitions for Review challenging UDEQ's renewal of the Mill License and GWDP and Requests for Appointment of an ALJ, which they later agreed to suspend pursuant to a Stipulation and Agreement with UDEQ, effective June 4, 2018. The Company and the Mill Plaintiffs held multiple discussions over the course of 2018 and 2019 in an effort to settle the dispute outside of any judicial proceeding. In February 2019, the Mill Plaintiffs submitted to the Company their proposal for reaching a settlement agreement. The parties have not to date come to agreement on resolution of these matters. Regardless, the Company does not consider the Mill Plaintiffs' challenges to have any merit and, if a settlement cannot be reached, intends to participate with UDEQ in defending against the challenges. If the challenges are successful, the likely outcome would be a requirement to modify the renewed License and/or GWDP. At this time, the Company does not believe any such modification would materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On August 26, 2021, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe filed a Petition to Intervene and Petition for Review challenging the UDEQ's approval of Amendment No. 10 to the Mill License, which expanded the list of Alternate Feed Materials that the Mill is authorized to accept and process for its source material content. Then, on November 18, 2021, the Tribe filed its Request for Appointment of an ALJ, followed shortly thereafter by a stay on the request in accordance with a Stipulation and Agreement between the Tribe, UDEQ and the Company. Thereafter, discussions between the Company and the Tribe commenced in an effort to resolve the dispute and other outstanding matters without formal adjudication. However, the Company does not consider this action to have any merit. If resolution is not achieved, the stay is lifted and the petition is successful before an ALJ, the likely outcome would be a requirement to modify or revoke the Mill License amendment. At this time, the Company does not believe any such modification or revocation would materially affect its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

***Kwale Project***

<u>Stevedoring Dispute with the Kenya Ports Authority</u>

To operate its ship loading and jetty facility in Likoni ("**Jetty Facility**"), the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Base Titanium, requires a Port Operating License issued by the Kenya Ports Authority ("**KPA**"). In March 2014, KPA granted Base Titanium a waiver to operate the Jetty Facility indefinitely until the formal license is approved by the KPA board of directors.

To date, the Port Operating License has not been finalized, as KPA has refused to grant the license unless it includes an obligation on the Company to pay a $1/tonne stevedoring charge on exports from the Jetty Facility. Under applicable KPA tariffs, KPA may levy a $1/tonne charge for stevedoring services it provides. However, the Company objects to stevedoring charges being levied by KPA principally on the grounds that (i) the Company's Jetty Facility is a private facility that was built entirely at the Company's expense; and (ii) no such stevedoring services are either required of, or are being provided by, KPA and, therefore, a service charge in respect of stevedoring is not applicable and invalid. Nonetheless, KPA sought to levy such charges shortly prior to the maiden shipment from the Jetty Facility in 2014, which Base Titanium paid under protest to ensure the vessel was permitted to sail.

In 2017, Base Titanium sought and obtained an injunction from the High Court of Kenya to compel KPA to provide necessary marine services to vessels berthing at the Jetty Facility ("**2017 Ruling**"). In conjunction, the parties entered consent orders to establish an escrow account where disputed charges are being held, pending the final outcome of the dispute.

Base Titanium sought resolution of the dispute through arbitration commenced in Kenya in February 2017, brought under the Kenya Ports Authority Act. The KPA challenged the jurisdiction of the arbitrator to hear the dispute and, in late 2019, the arbitrator ruled in favor of arbitration having jurisdiction. In March 2022, the High Court of Kenya upheld the arbitrator's jurisdictional ruling. The KPA appealed this ruling to the Court of Appeal of Kenya, but this appeal has not progressed. Separately, in February 2021, the High Court of Kenya ruled that the arbitrator should be removed and directed the parties to seek appointment of a new arbitrator. KPA separately appealed the 2017 Ruling and, in April 2023, the Court of Appeal of Kenya dismissed KPA's appeal, paving the way for the Company to seek appointment of a new arbitrator. The Company has held off on seeking the appointment of a new arbitrator to allow for a potential amicable resolution of the matter. This matter remains unresolved, and the Company anticipates that it may need to recommence formal dispute resolution proceedings through arbitration.

The amount in dispute is approximately $4.6 million (with $1.4 million previously paid, and approximately $3.2 million held in the escrow account).

<u>Mivumoni B Village</u>

On March 18, 2021, a local landholder representing himself and 65 additional individuals (collectively, the "**Petitioners**") filed a petition against Base Titanium in the Environment and Land Court at Mombasa alleging failings in the Environmental Impact Assessment process for the Kwale Project, excessive noise and air pollution from dust and adverse consequences of contaminated water allegedly caused by the Kwale Project's operations. The Company maintains its position that it has not committed the alleged violations or breaches and that no substantive evidence has been adduced supporting the claims. Among other things, the Kwale Project has a valid and subsisting Environmental Impact Assessment License issued by the National Environmental Management Authority and the Company has conducted its operations in compliance with that license and the Environmental and Social Management Plan.

Base Titanium raised a preliminary objection challenging the jurisdiction of the Environment and Land Court, at first instance, on procedural grounds, which the Court dismissed by way of a 2022 ruling later upheld by the Court of Appeal of Kenya in 2025. The Company appealed to the Supreme Court of Kenya. A hearing was held on March 12, 2026 and the parties are awaiting the ruling.

The Company does not consider this action to have any merit. The Company therefore does not believe, at this time, that this action will materially impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

***Vara Mada Project***

The Company acquired control over the Vara Mada Project on October 2, 2024 through its acquisition of Base Resources. At the time of the acquisition, the Project had, since November 2019, been suspended by the Government of Madagascar. Shortly after the acquisition, on November 28, 2024, the Government lifted the suspension and on December 5, 2024, the Company entered into the Madagascar memorandum of understanding ("**MOU**") setting forth certain key terms applicable to the Project. Following lifting of the suspension and entry of the Madagascar MOU, the Company has been in the process of re-commencing development efforts and investment in the Project, re-establishing community and social programs, and advancing the technical, environmental, social and other activities necessary to achieve a positive FID.

Since acquiring the Vara Mada Project, the Company has been in discussions with the Government of Madagascar to establish the necessary legal regime to support development of the Vara Mada Project, which will be required before a positive FID can be made. These discussions have been focused on, among other things, mechanisms for achieving legal and fiscal stability, select tax and custom benefits, necessary adjustments to foreign exchange rules, protections from expropriation and access to international arbitration for dispute resolution. The Company has also been seeking clarification of existing procedures for adding monazite to the Vara Mada Project's mining permit, which currently allows for the production of ilmenite, rutile, and zircon. Recent discussions with the Government have focused on addressing these issues through an investment agreement to be approved by Parliament or through revisions to existing Malagasy law applicable to large-scale mining investments.

On October 17, 2025, a new President of Madagascar was sworn in by the Country's High Constitutional Court following a period of social unrest and political instability that resulted in the removal of the Country's prior President. In-country political developments continue to evolve, including with respect to changes and appointments of key government ministers. At this time, it is too early to determine whether and to what extent recent social and political developments in Madagascar may impact the Vara Mada Project, whether positively or negatively, including with respect to the Vara Mada Project's development prospects or timelines, the ability to achieve suitable fiscal or other terms applicable to the Vara Mada Project or the ability to achieve a positive FID. These developments have not had an impact on the financial results of the Company at this time. The Company will continue to monitor events as they unfold.

There can be no assurance of achieving sufficient legal and fiscal stability or the timing thereof or of obtaining approval of the addition of monazite to the mining permit or the timing thereof. If such approvals are not obtained, or obtained on terms less favorable than expected, this could delay any FID in relation to the Vara Mada Project or prevent or otherwise have a significant effect on the development of the Vara Mada Project or ability to recover monazite from the Vara Mada Project.

***Mineral Property Commitments***

The Company enters into commitments with federal and state agencies and private individuals to lease mineral rights. These leases are renewable annually, and renewal costs are expected to total $2.59 million for the remainder of the year ended December 31, 2026.

***Surety Bonds***

The Company has indemnified third-party companies to provide surety bonds as collateral for the Company's AROs. The Company is obligated to replace this collateral in the event of a default and is obligated to repay any reclamation or closure costs due. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has $22.66 million posted as collateral against undiscounted AROs of $48.73 million. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $22.47 million posted as collateral against undiscounted AROs of $50.49 million. The Company will be liable to pay any reclamation expense that exceeds the amount of the collateral posted against the surety bonds.

**16.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING**

**Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis**

Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair value accounting utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described, below:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

The Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 include cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current accrued liabilities. These instruments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of the instruments. Allowances for doubtful accounts are recorded against the accounts receivable balance to estimate net realizable value.

The Company's investments in marketable equity securities are publicly traded stocks measured at fair value and classified within Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Level 1 marketable equity securities use quoted prices for identical assets in active markets, while Level 2 marketable equity securities utilize inputs based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets.

The Company's investments in marketable debt securities are valued using quoted prices of a pricing service and, as such, are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company's investments accounted for at fair value consisting of common shares are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and, as such, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company's Advance to the Donald Project JV is accounted for as a marketable debt security and is valued using the discounted cash flow approach. The discounted cash flow approach is an income based valuation approach used to estimate the instrument's fair value using a range of indicated discount rates between 6.18% to 6.29% and 5.52% to 6.00% for the valuations as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, depending on the estimated timing of a positive FID or no positive FID. The indicated discount rate range is based upon significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

**Summary of Reportable Segments**

<u>Uranium</u>

The uranium segment engages in conventional and in situ recovery uranium extraction, recovery and sales of uranium from mineral properties and the recycling of uranium-bearing materials generated by third parties along with the exploration, permitting and evaluation of uranium properties in the U.S. As part of these activities, the Company also acquires, explores, evaluates and, if warranted, permits uranium properties. The Company's final uranium product is U3O8, which is sold to customers for further processing into fuel for nuclear reactors generating carbon emission-free energy. The Company also produces vanadium pentoxide, V2O5, as a co-product of uranium at the Mill, as market conditions warrant. The Company is also exploring opportunities to separate radium-226 and radium-228 as other products from uranium process streams from its existing mines.

<u>Rare Earth Elements</u>

The REE segment is engaged in the Company's initiatives to progress towards full REE separation capabilities at the Mill to produce both "light" and "heavy" separated REE oxides in the coming years.

<u>Heavy Mineral Sands</u>

The HMS segment is engaged in the permitting, exploration, development and recovery of HMS, which includes ilmenite, rutile, zircon and monazite, at the Vara Mada Project, the Bahia Project, and the Company's equity method investments in the Donald Project JV and Tate. The HMS segment is also engaged in the reclamation of the Kwale Project, which ceased mining operations at the end of 2024.

**Our Company**

We produce several of the critical materials essential to U.S. energy security and advanced technologies, including uranium, REEs, vanadium and HMS, strengthening domestic supply chains and reducing reliance on foreign adversarial sources. The Company owns conventional uranium, uranium/vanadium and REE/HMS properties, projects in various stages of operation, development, exploration and permitting and fully permitted uranium and uranium/vanadium projects on standby. The Company's White Mesa Mill near Blanding, Utah, is the only licensed and operating uranium mill and the only uranium mill capable of producing separated REE oxides in the U.S.

The Mill is our key to building a critical materials hub in the U.S. through the production of uranium, REEs, vanadium and potentially radium. Uranium is the strategic fuel powering carbon free, emission free baseload nuclear energy and remains one of the most reliable forms of power supporting U.S. energy independence and decarbonization goals. The REEs we produce are essential to manufacture permanent magnets used in EVs, hybrid EVs, defense systems, robotics and other advanced technologies. The titanium and zirconium products derived from our HMS production are used in national security and other key industries. Titanium is used in aircraft engines and airframes, spacecraft components, medical devices and pigments, while zirconium is crucial for fuel rod cladding, reactor components, jet engine parts and advanced ceramics in medical, aerospace and chemical applications. The radium that we are evaluating recovering from our REE and uranium processing streams have the potential to provide materials needed for emerging TAT cancer treatments. In addition, Energy Fuels recovers uranium from Alternate Feed Materials at the Mill, recycling valuable resources that would otherwise be discarded and returning them to the fuel cycle to support U.S. nuclear energy and national security objectives.

The Company is: mining uranium ore and mineralized material from its Pinyon Plain, La Sal and Pandora mines, located in Arizona and Utah, respectively, and processing and/or stockpiling the material at the Mill; processing stockpiled Alternate Feed Materials at the Mill for the production of finished U3O8 product; completing sales of U3O8 under its portfolio of long-term contracts and on the spot market; performing development activities at its Donald Project in Australia in preparation for a FID, which the Company expects could be made as early as Q2 2026; negotiating fiscal and stability arrangements, seeking government approvals and performing permitting and development activities at its Vara Mada Project in Madagascar in preparation for a potential FID, which the Company believes could be made as early as 2027 if fiscal and stability arrangements are finalized; continuing drilling activities and resource evaluation at its Bahia Project in Brazil; performing various permitting, exploration and development activities across its uranium and uranium/vanadium properties in the U.S; and completing reclamation and post-closure monitoring activities at its Kwale Project in Kenya.

**Uranium Segment**

<u>Conventional Uranium Mine Activities</u>

The Company mined ore containing approximately 375,000 pounds of U3O8 from the Pinyon Plain mine with an average grade of 1.12% and mined mineralized material containing approximately 50,000 pounds of U3O8 from its La Sal and Pandora mines for a total of approximately 425,000 pounds of contained U3O8 during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Ore grades at Pinyon Plain in Q1 decreased due to moving from one high-grade zone to another and are expected to increase moving forward. Such uranium-bearing ore and mineralized material was processed at the Mill and/or stockpiled at the mines or Mill for future processing, subject to market conditions, contract requirements and the Mill's processing schedule. Processing at the Mill began in Q4 2025 and is expected to continue through at least Q2 2026, subject to market conditions, contract requirements and the Mill's processing schedule. Ore and mineralized material that is not processed as part of the Mill's conventional ore run, which began in Q4 2025 and is expected to continue through Q2 2026, will remain stockpiled at the Mill and is included in the

<u>[Tabl](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[e of](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[Con](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[tent](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[s](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)</u>

Company's inventories of U3O8 contained in stockpiled ore and mineralized materials. The Company currently expects to process any additional stockpiled and mined ore and mineralized material from its Pinyon Plain, La Sal and Pandora mines with the remainder stockpiled at the mines or Mill for processing during 2026 or 2027, subject to market conditions, contract requirements and the Mill's schedule. Stockpiled material available at the Mill, which can be processed into finished U3O8 product on a relatively short notice, provides the Company more flexibility in securing sales on the most favorable terms when needed.

The Company plans to continue to maintain its other uranium projects and facilities in a state of readiness for the purpose of restarting mining activities on an expedited basis, as contract obligations and market conditions may warrant. To this end, the Company expects to continue rehabilitation and development work at its Whirlwind mine in preparation for future production. Although the timing of the Company's plans to extract and process mineralized materials from the Whirlwind mine will be based on contract requirements, inventory levels and/or sustained improvements in general market conditions, the Company currently expects the Whirlwind mine, along with the Company's Nichols Ranch ISR project, to be able to commence uranium production within one (1) year from a "go" decision. With strong market conditions, the Whirlwind and Nichols Ranch mines could potentially increase Energy Fuels' uranium production by up to approximately 600,000 pounds per year starting as early as 2027.

The Company also accelerated permitting and development on its Roca Honda Project, a large, high-grade conventional project in New Mexico, its Bullfrog Project in Utah, and its EZ Project in Arizona, which together with its Sheep Mountain Project (a large conventional project in Wyoming) could expand the Company's uranium production to a run-rate of up to five million pounds of U3O8 per year in the coming years. The Company is also continuing to maintain required permits at its other conventional projects, including the Energy Queen mine. These projects serve as important pipeline assets for the Company's future conventional production capabilities, as market conditions may warrant.

<u>Mill Activities (Uranium)</u>

The Mill processed stockpiled conventional ore and mineralized materials and Alternate Feed Materials, which resulted in 790,000 pounds of finished U3O8 production during Q1 2026. The Company commenced its conventional ore processing campaign at the Mill in Q4 2025 as planned, which is expected to continue through at least Q2 2026 due to: (i) the previously announced higher mining rate expected at the Pinyon Plain mine in 2025 and in subsequent years; (ii) the desire to produce enough finished U3O8 from this Mill run to allow the Company to fulfill its contract deliveries in 2026 and 2027, along with maintaining the flexibility to complete opportunistic spot sales; and (iii) the desire to allow the Company to allow the Mill to make its planned expanded Phase 1 Circuit process changes at the Mill in 2026.

The Mill also continued to advance its research and development ("**R&D**") activities on medical isotopes and engaging in discussions with buyers interested in off-take agreements for the material.

<u>Uranium Permitting and Development Activities</u>

The Company continues to prepare two additional mines in Colorado and Wyoming (Whirlwind and Nichols Ranch, respectively) for expected production within one year from a "go" decision and is advancing several other of its large-scale U.S. mine projects in order to increase uranium production in the coming years, as market conditions warrant. With strong market conditions, the Whirlwind and Nichols Ranch mines could potentially increase Energy Fuels' uranium production by up to 600,000 pounds of U3O8 per year as early as 2027. The exact timing for resumption of production from each of these projects will be subject to current and future uranium market conditions and/or the procurement of additional long-term contracts. In 2026, the Company also plans to continue advancing its permitting and development on the Roca Honda, Bullfrog, and EZ Projects, which together with the Company's Sheep Mountain Project, could expand the Company's uranium production by over five million pounds of U3O8 per year in the coming years, as market conditions warrant. As the Company is ramping up its commercial uranium production, it can rely on its uranium inventories and potential purchases of uranium on the spot market to supplement its uranium production if necessary to fulfill existing contract requirements.

<u>TAT Activities</u>

The Company is also evaluating the potential to recover Ra-226 and Ra-228 from its existing uranium and REE process streams for use in the development of TAT medical isotopes for the treatment of cancer, which is seeing promising results in clinical trials to date. TAT requires reliable and secure supplies of radium, which pharmaceutical companies use to extract other short half-life, alpha-emitting elements for production of TAT drugs. Currently, there is no domestic supplier of radium. Therefore, Energy Fuels sees a potentially significant opportunity to become the U.S. radium supplier of choice, as TAT treatments advance through clinical trials and later into widespread use.

**Rare Earth Elements Segment** 

<u>REE Separation Circuits at the Mill</u>

*Existing Phase 1 Circuit*

In late 2023 and early 2024, the Company constructed enhancements and modifications to its existing solvent extraction ("**SX**") circuits at the Mill for commercial separation of NdPr at the Mill, while at the same time producing "heavy" (Sm+) RE Concentrate. The Company completed these modifications and fully commissioned the project in Q2 2024 and completed its initial run of separated NdPr commercial production in Q3 2024. The modifications made the Mill leach circuits to crack and leach monazite together with the modifications to the Mill's SX circuits to separate NdPr are referred to as the "**Phase 1 Circuit**".

The existing Phase 1 Circuit has the design capacity to process approximately 8,000 to 10,000 tonnes of monazite per year, producing approximately 4,000 to 6,000 tonnes of TREO, containing approximately 850 to 1,000 tonnes of recoverable separated NdPr per year. Although the modifications to the Mill's SX circuit comprised in the Phase 1 Circuit are stand-alone and dedicated to REE production and do not interfere with the Mill's uranium and vanadium production, the Phase 1 Circuit's crack and leach circuit shares certain circuits with the Mill's uranium production and as a result, Phase 1 Circuit REE production and conventional uranium production cannot be run at the same time, as the Phase 1 Circuit is currently configured. It is therefore necessary at this time to switch back and forth between conventional uranium and uranium/vanadium production and Phase 1 Circuit REE production from monazite sands, which can be done with modest cost and effort.

The Phase 1 Circuit as currently configured would allow for the processing of the first phase of the Donald Project monazite production, once that project is developed, for the recovery and separation of NdPr and an Sm+ mixed RE concentrate which could be sold on the market or stockpiled for separation of the heavies upon completion of later expansion of the Phase 1 Circuit and/or the planned Phase 2 Circuit at the Mill.

*Planned Expansion of Phase 1 Circuit*

The Company is planning further enhancements to expand its heavy REE production at its Phase 1 Circuit for the planned commercial-level recovery of Tb and Dy, along with samarium ("**Sm**"), europium ("**Eu**") and gadolinium ("**Gd**"), with the ability to separate other heavy REEs such as yttrium ("**Y**") and lutetium ("**Lu**"), if market conditions or customer requirements warrant. Subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals, financing, the successful development of these enhancements, and the receipt of sufficient quantities of monazite sand feedstock, the expanded Phase 1 Circuit is expected to be operational in 2027 with planned production recovery of up to approximately 14 tonnes of Tb and 48 tonnes of Dy per year, and potentially other heavy REEs, the existing 850 to 1,000 tonnes of NdPr capacity, from processing up to approximately 10,000 tonnes of monazite per year. The Company had previously announced its intention to start commercial production of Dy and Tb by the end of 2026, but has changed those plans in order to expand the enhancements to the Mill's Phase 1 Circuit to allow for the additional production of Sm, Eu and Gd and to provide the ability to separate other heavy REEs in the 2027 time frame.

At the same time as these enhancements are being made to the Phase 1 Circuit, the Company plans to make further enhancements to the Phase 1 Circuit to allow for the processing of uranium- and REE-bearing mixed rare earth carbonates ("**MREC**") or similar intermediary REE products from third-party sources in the Phase 1 Circuit, subject to receipt of all regulatory approvals, financing and the successful development of these further enhancements. As MREC or similar intermediary REE products would not need to utilize the Phase 1 Circuit's crack and leach circuits, it is expected that such products could be separated into NdPr and heavy REEs separately from uranium production, thereby allowing such feedstocks to be separated into REE oxides through the Phase 1 Circuit's SX circuits without interfering with normal Mill conventional uranium ore processing, which could be run simultaneously with the separation of such feedstocks. These enhancements are expected to be made and the Phase 1 Circuit operational to accept MREC and similar intermediary REE products in 2027.

*Planned Phase 2 Circuit*

The Company also plans to expand its NdPr, Dy and Tb production capability, and potentially other REE material production capability, through the development of its proposed stand-alone Phase 2 Circuit, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals, financing, completion of engineering and the receipt of sufficient feed materials.

In January 2026, the Company announced the results of a new AACE International Class 3 Bankable Feasibility Study ("**BFS**") evaluating the planned Phase 2 Circuit expansion of REE processing capabilities at the Mill. The BFS evaluated the construction of a Phase 2 Circuit designed to materially expand the Mill's ability to process monazite and other REE-bearing feedstocks into separated REE oxides. Upon commissioning, the Phase 2 Circuit is expected to increase the Mill's REE oxide

production capacity from approximately 850 to 1,000 tpa of NdPr oxide from the Phase 1 Circuit, to over 6,000 tpa of NdPr oxide, along with approximately 80 tpa of Tb and 288 tpa of Dy oxides from the combined Phase 1 Circuit and Phase 2 Circuit. This would provide the capability to produce sufficient NdPr for up to approximately 7.0 million EVs/hybrid EVs per year. The Phase 2 Circuit would also add a dedicated monazite "crack-and-leach" circuit to the Mill's existing leach circuits, which would allow the Phase 2 Circuit to be run completely independently of (and simultaneously with) the Mill's conventional uranium and uranium/vanadium production.

The BFS estimates initial capital costs of approximately $410.0 million and indicates attractive projected economics, including significant expected annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("**EBITDA**") over the modeled project life. The Phase 2 Circuit expansion is intended to position the Company as a leading domestic processor of both light and heavy REE oxides, supporting a secure U.S.-based REE supply chain. The BFS assumes feedstock supply from the Company's HMS and monazite projects, as well as third-party sources including MREC and similar feedstocks, subject to permitting, development and market conditions.

The Company expects to complete Phase 2 by mid-2029, subject to licensing, financing, and receipt of sufficient feedstock.

The following table summarizes the Mill's existing and planned REE circuit capacity:

(1) Actual recoveries may differ.

*REE Feed Sources*

The Company has focused primarily on monazite concentrates, as they have superior concentrations of the three critical "magnet" REEs (NdPr, Dy and Tb) compared to many other REE-bearing minerals. Monazite concentrates typically contain higher concentrations of "heavy" REEs, including Dy and Tb, versus many other REE-bearing ores, mainly due to the presence of xenotime, which is another REE-bearing phosphate mineral that is often found with monazite. The monazite feedstock for the Company's REE production is expected to be procured through Company-owned mines like the Vara Mada Project and Bahia Project, as well as the Company's joint venture interest in the Donald Project, along with other potential acquisitions, joint ventures, open market offtake (like the Company's current arrangement with The Chemours Company), and/or other collaborations, in each case upon successful completion of development of the projects and transactions.

As mentioned above, the Company plans to expand its capability to accept uranium and REE-bearing MREC and other similar feedstock from third-party sources, as available. This will provide more flexibility to receive other types of feedstocks and to utilize the Phase 1 Circuit for REE production without interfering with conventional uranium and uranium/vanadium production at the Mill. To the extent this MREC and similar feedstock originates from the cracking and leaching of monazite sands at other facilities, the MREC is expected to contain similar favorable distributions of heavy REEs as monazite sands themselves.

<u>Successful Pilot Production of Tb</u>

On March 25, 2026, the Company announced that it successfully produced its first kilogram of high-purity Tb oxide at the Mill, representing the first U.S. primary production of this critical "heavy" rare earth material in decades. Using monazite ore sourced from the U.S., the Company achieved a Tb oxide purity of approximately 99.9% at pilot scale, which meets the specifications required by global manufacturers of rare earth permanent magnets. This milestone follows the Company's recent pilot-scale production of approximately 30 kg of high-purity Dy oxide and further demonstrates the technical capability of the Company's existing rare earth processing infrastructure to produce separated heavy rare earth oxides from primary mineral feedstocks.

<u>Proposed Acquisition of Australian Strategic Materials Limited</u>

In accordance with its plans to expand its REE production to include metals and alloys, the Company entered into a definitive agreement on January 20, 2026, as amended on March 12, 2026, to acquire 100% of the issued share capital of ASM by way of a scheme of arrangement under Australian law. ASM is an Australian-based critical materials company with REE mining, processing and metallization assets, including the Dubbo Project in New South Wales, an REE metallization and alloying facility in South Korea, and plans to potentially construct an REE metallization and alloying facility in the U.S. ASM's Korean

metals and alloying plant is one of the few facilities outside of China currently producing REE metals and alloys, including NdPr, Dy and Tb metals and Neodymium Iron Boron ("**NdFeB**") and developing Dysprosium-Iron ("**FeDy**") alloy production. Upon closing of this transaction, which is expected as early as July 2026, the Company believes it will be the largest, fully integrated REE "mine-to-metal and alloy" producer outside of China closing a critical strategic gap in global supply chains for magnet applications, including automotive, robotic, energy and defense technologies.

Under the terms of the transaction, ASM shareholders will be entitled to receive 0.053 Common Shares (or CHESS Depositary Interests) for each ASM ordinary share held, and up to AUD$0.13 per ASM share in cash, subject to customary conditions. ASM option holders are expected to receive cash consideration of AUD$0.50 per option under a concurrent option scheme of arrangement.

The transaction remains subject to court, regulatory and shareholder approval under the Australian scheme of arrangement process. Australian foreign investment approval has been obtained. The Company expects the transaction to close as early as July 2026.

**Heavy Mineral Sands Segment**

<u>Heavy Mineral Sands Initiatives</u>

The Company strategically entered the HMS sector to control the Company's internal costs and supply chains for its primary REE feedstock: monazite concentrates. Monazite concentrate is a superior REE mineral concentrate, as it contains excellent distributions of the "magnet" REEs (NdPr, Dy and Tb) and other "heavy" REEs such as Sm, Gd, Lu and Y which are in short supply and used in a number of technological and defense applications. Notably, monazite concentrates can be processed at the Company's Mill by leveraging existing licenses, infrastructure and expertise. HMS mines (titanium and zirconium minerals, including ilmenite, rutile and zircon) also present an attractive future opportunity for the Company by providing an expected low-cost and large-scale monazite feedstock that the Company may then process into separated REE products at the Mill. The Company owns 100% interests in the Vara Mada (Madagascar) and Bahia (Brazil) Projects and has the right to earn up to a 49% joint venture interest in the Donald Project (Australia) pursuant to which Energy Fuels expects to offtake all REE-monazite.

<u>Vara Mada Project</u>

The Company acquired control over the Vara Mada Project on October 2, 2024. At the time of the acquisition, the Vara Mada Project had, since November 2019, been suspended by the Government of Madagascar. Shortly after the acquisition, on November 28, 2024, the Government lifted the suspension, and on December 5, 2024, the Company entered into a MOU with the Government of Madagascar setting forth certain key terms applicable to the Vara Mada Project. The lifting of the suspension by the Malagasy Government was a significant step in the development of the Vara Mada Project as it enabled the Company to re-commence development and other technical activities on the ground after a five-year hiatus, including the re-establishment of the Company's social programs, additional mine planning and engineering, expanding the critical mineral resource base, and progressing other activities as necessary to progress the Vara Mada Project and achieve a positive FID, which the Company expects could be made as early as 2027 if fiscal and stability arrangements are finalized.

Consistent with the MOU, the Company and the Government have been negotiating the terms of an investment agreement to be submitted to the Madagascar Parliament for approval and promulgation as a law. The investment agreement is intended to provide the key pillars for a bankable large-scale project, including mechanisms for ensuring long-term legal and fiscal stability, select tax and customs benefits, adjustments to foreign exchange rules, protections from expropriation and access to international arbitration for dispute resolution. While discussions have focused on an investment agreement as the Stability Mechanism, it is possible that other means of achieving stability will be considered and/or pursued as discussions progress.

The Company has also been focusing on re-establishment of the Company's social programs after the five-year hiatus imposed following the lifting of suspension, including re-establishing meaningful community engagement and social programs aimed at securing a firm social license to operate to support safe, secure and reliable surface access to collect baseline, technical and other data necessary to update permit conditions, as well as performing additional mine planning and engineering work, expanding the critical mineral resource base, and progressing other activities necessary to progress the Vara Mada Project and achieve a positive FID.

On October 17, 2025, a new President of Madagascar was sworn in by the Country's High Constitutional Court following a period of social unrest and political instability that resulted in the removal of the Country's prior President. In-country political developments continue to evolve, including with respect to changes and appointments of key governmental ministers. Energy Fuels is working with the new administration to reaffirm the previously negotiated concepts with the prior administration, which had substantially finalized the core investment agreement terms, and otherwise continues to constructively engage with the new administration.

At this time, it is too early to determine whether and to what extent these recent social and political developments in Madagascar may impact the Vara Mada Project, whether positively or negatively, including with respect to the Vara Mada Project's development prospects or timelines, the ability to achieve suitable fiscal or other terms applicable to the Vara Mada Project or the ability to achieve a positive FID. There can be no assurance of achieving sufficient legal and fiscal stability or the timing thereof or obtaining approval of the addition of monazite to the mining permit or the timing thereof. If a stability mechanism and necessary approvals to support the Vara Mada Project are not obtained, or are obtained on terms less favorable than expected, this could delay any FID in relation to the Vara Mada Project or prevent or otherwise have a significant effect on the development of the Vara Mada Project or the Company's ability to recover monazite from the Vara Mada Project. These developments have not had an impact on the financial results of the Company at this time. The Company will continue to monitor events as they unfold.

In January 2026, the Company announced the results of an updated Feasibility Study ("**FS**") for the Vara Mada Project, which evaluates the long-term development potential and economic viability of the Vara Mada Project. The FS was prepared in accordance with U.S. Regulation S-K 1300 and Canadian NI 43-101 and confirms the Vara Mada Project's world-class scale, long mine life and robust economics as a REE and HMS development opportunity. Based on the FS, the Vara Mada Project is expected to have a modeled mine life of approximately 38 years and, at full production capacity, is projected to generate post-tax, pre-debt net present value (10% discount rate) of approximately $1.8 billion and a post-tax internal rate of return of approximately 25%. In addition, the FS indicates that the project could ramp up to over $500 million of annual EBITDA and generate average annual free cash flow of approximately $264 million over the modeled mine life. These projected economics are supported by Proven and Probable mineral reserves and long-term price assumptions for ilmenite, zircon, rutile and monazite. The FS contemplates staged capital development and includes the potential processing of monazite at the Mill; however, downstream REE processing and oxide production are not included in the base FS economics.

<u>Donald Project</u>

The Company has a joint venture with Astron, the Donald Project JV, to jointly develop and operate the Donald Project in Australia, which is a well-known REE and HMS deposit that the Company believes could provide it with another near-term, low-cost, and large-scale source of monazite sand that, upon development, would be transported to the Mill for the recovery of separated REE products. The Donald Project has all major regulatory approvals required to construct and operate the project. The Donald Project is notable in that the monazite concentrates expected to be produced at the project contain elevated concentrations of the "heavy" REE oxides, including Dy and Tb.

The JV Agreement provides Energy Fuels with the right to invest up to AUD$183.00 million (approximately $125.75 million at March 31, 2026 exchange rates) to earn up to a 49% interest in the Donald Project JV. In addition, the Company has agreed to issue Common Shares to Astron having a value of up to $17.50 million. The Company has invested AUD$39.56 million in cash into the Donald Project through March 31, 2026. The remaining $14.00 million of Common Shares will be issued upon a positive FID. As of March 31, 2026, the Company has a 10.50% ownership interest in the Donald Project. Astron, through its subsidiary Dickson & Johnson Pty Ltd, holds the remaining 89.50% interest.

<u>Bahia Project</u>

The Bahia Project is an HMS and REE deposit that the Company believes has the potential to supply 3,000 to 10,000 tonnes of monazite per year to the Mill for decades for processing into high-purity REE oxides. That amount of monazite contains approximately 1,500 to 5,000 tonnes of total rare earth oxides ("**TREO**"), including an estimated 300 to 500 tonnes of NdPr per year and significant commercial quantities of Dy and Tb and other "heavy" REEs. While Energy Fuels' primary interest in acquiring the Bahia Project is the uranium and REE-bearing monazite, the Bahia Project is also expected to produce large quantities of high-quality ilmenite and rutile and zircon minerals also in high demand for the production of the critical minerals, titanium and zirconium.

The Vara Mada and Bahia Projects, and the Donald Project JV offer a diverse book of monazite supply for the Company's REE processing and critical minerals initiatives, which in the meantime are expected to be supplemented by third-party purchases.

**Market Conditions and Trends**

The following discussion provides an overview of market conditions for the commodities relevant to the Company's operations and development activities. These market conditions influence pricing, demand, sales opportunities, production decisions, inventory strategies and the timing of development and investment activities. Market conditions are subject to volatility and uncertainty and may change based on a variety of factors, including global economic conditions, geopolitical developments, government policies and supply-and-demand dynamics.

<u>Uranium Market</u>

The Company believes that world demand is increasing for clean, carbon-free, reliable and affordable baseload electricity, including nuclear energy. Concurrently, the nuclear fuel market remains in deficit, existing uranium mines and inventories are depleting, and geopolitics are putting security of supply into greater focus. In addition, trade issues are injecting uncertainty into U.S. and global markets. As a result, the Company believes the current- and long-term fundamentals of the uranium industry remain positive.

Uranium spot prices increased modestly during the first quarter of 2026, due to several factors, including continued western bans on Russian uranium and nuclear fuel, accelerated nuclear plant restarts, life extensions, new builds including interest in using nuclear to power data centers and artificial intelligence ("**AI**"), uranium mine supply tightness, and entities such as the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust speculatively purchasing and sequestering material. The Company continues to believe that uranium prices will continue to rise to higher levels to support the additional primary production that will be required. We continue to expect to see more nuclear units constructed around the world, along with existing capacity extended and protected, while primary mine production drops due to depletion of resources, reduced production, commissioning challenges, logistic issues, and insufficiently high prices.

According to TradeTech, world uranium requirements continue to exceed primary mine production, with the gap being bridged by dwindling secondary supplies and excess uranium inventories in various forms that have already been mined. At the same time, a large portion of global uranium production remains state-owned and state-subsidized, and therefore not subject to normal market fundamentals, which the Company believes present risks to current and future markets. However, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the upcoming halt of waivers under the U.S. uranium ban on December 31, 2027, has increased demand for non-Russian uranium. Geopolitical tensions continue to increase between the U.S. and China, and Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan maintain close commercial and political ties with Russia, which the Company believes places future uranium and nuclear supplies from those nations at some risk. As a result, the Company has observed significantly more interest in both spot transactions and long-term contracts for U3O8 from utilities.

The Company believes that certain uranium supply and demand fundamentals point to sustained market strength and potentially higher prices in the future, increased demand from utilities and end-users (including the technology sector), financial entities, traders, and producers. However, the Company also believes that while uranium market conditions have improved significantly since 2021, they still could be vulnerable, primarily due to secondary uranium supplies, excess inventories, and non-market activities of state-owned enterprises. While U.S. and European utilities are reducing their exposure to Russian supply, the Company believes that Russia, and increasingly China, maintains significant capabilities across the nuclear fuel cycle, which could re-enter the global market in the future upon resolution of the conflict in Ukraine, circumvention of trade restrictions, a cooling of geopolitical tensions or other factors.

<u>Vanadium Market</u>

Vanadium is a metallic element that, when converted into ferrovanadium ("**FeV**") (an alloy of vanadium and iron), is used primarily as an additive to strengthen and harden steel and make it anti-corrosive. According to market consultant FastMarkets, over 90% of FeV is used in the steel industry. In addition, vanadium is used in the aerospace and chemical industries and continues to see interest in energy storage technologies, including vanadium redox flow batteries. China is the largest global

producer of vanadium, with additional production coming from Russia, South Africa, and Brazil (according to Wood MacKenzie).

The Company believes that one of the primary drivers of vanadium pentoxide ("**V2O5**") prices is demand for steel, including global prospects for economic growth, construction, infrastructure and automotive manufacturing. According to Fastmarkets, the imposition of tariffs and counter-tariffs has slowed trade between the U.S. and China, which are two of the larger markets for steel and ferro-alloys. This has led to reduced demand for ferro-alloys in certain end-markets, particularly industries such as automotive and appliances, which are sensitive to trade policies. The Company expects V₂O₅ prices could rise with stronger global economic confidence or greater demand from U.S. critical mineral initiatives.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the mid-point price (dollars per pound) of vanadium in Europe had the following activity:

| Midpoint | $5.89 | $5.93 | 1% | $5.40 | $5.95 | $6.11 |

---

Vanadium prices during recent periods have reflected a combination of global steel demand conditions, macroeconomic uncertainty and trade-related developments. While demand for vanadium remains primarily tied to steel production, the Company believes longer-term demand may also be influenced by infrastructure spending, energy transition initiatives and potential growth in energy storage applications.

The Company believes that vanadium market fundamentals remain closely linked to global steel demand and that pricing may continue to experience volatility in the near term. The Company continues to maintain vanadium inventory and believes this inventory provides it with flexibility to respond to improved market conditions or sales opportunities, should the Company elect to pursue sales, while managing downside risk during periods of price volatility.

<u>Rare Earth Elements Market</u>

REEs are a group of 17 chemical elements (the 15 elements in the lanthanum series, plus yttrium and scandium) that are used in a variety of clean energy and advanced technologies, including EVs, robotics, wind energy, cell phones, computers, flat panel displays, advanced optics, catalysts, medicine and national defense applications. Monazite, the primary source of REEs currently utilized by the Company, also contains significant recoverable quantities of uranium, which fuels the production of carbon-free electricity using nuclear technology. According to industry analyst Wood-Mackenzie, most demand for REEs is in the form of separated REEs, "as most end-use applications require only one or two separated rare earth compounds or products." (Wood Mackenzie, *Rare Earths, Outlook to 2030*, 20th Edition). The main uses for REEs include: (i) battery alloys; (ii) catalysts; (iii) ceramics, pigments and glazes; (iv) glass polishing powders and additives; (v) metallurgy and alloys; (vi) permanent magnets; (vii) phosphors; and (viii) others (according to Adamas Intelligence). By volume, NdPr, Dy and Tb used for permanent magnets in drive unit motors for EVs and plug-in hybrid EVs ("**PHEV**"), and lanthanum ("**La**") and cerium ("**Ce**") used in catalysts comprised 60% of total consumption, yet over 90% of the value consumed.

Typical monazite sands from the southeast U.S. average approximately 55% TREO and 0.20% uranium, which is the typical grade of uranium found in mines that have historically fed the Mill. Of the 55% TREO, the NdPr typically comprises approximately 22% of the TREO. NdPr is among the most valuable of the REEs, as it is the key ingredient in the manufacture of high-strength permanent magnets, which are essential to the lightweight and powerful synchronous motors required in EVs, PHEVs, and permanent magnet used in wind turbines for renewable energy generation, as well as in an array of other modern technologies, including mobile devices and defense applications. Monazite also contains higher concentrations of "heavy" REEs than other REE-bearing minerals, including Dy and Tb used in permanent magnets used in EVs, PHEVs, defense and other applications, and Sm, Gd, Lu and/or Y, which are currently in limited demand, but are seeing growing interest by the U.S. government for national security purposes and manufacturers for commercial production.

The Company is currently focused primarily on NdPr, Tb and Dy, but has the capability to separate other REEs such as Sm, Eu, Gd, Lu and Y should market conditions and/or government demand support such activities. REEs are mined both as a primary target and as a co-product of HMS mining where the natural monazite sands are physically separated from the other mined sands. The ore then goes through a process of cracking and cleaning at the Mill that may include acids or caustic solutions, elevated temperature and pressure to recover the uranium and free the REEs from the mineral matrix. After removal of the uranium, this solution is cleaned of any remaining deleterious elements (including remaining radioactive elements) and sent to SX circuits that have the primary role to separate the REEs into separate individual REEs by extraction, scrubbing stripping and washing. SX facilities then use solvents and a series of mixer-settlers for the separation of the REEs from each other and to

create the desired purified REE products (often as oxides) for the market or particular end user. Separated REE products are typically sold to various markets, depending on the use. Separated REE products can be made into REE metals and metal-alloys, which are used to produce permanent magnets and other applications.

REEs are commercially transacted in a number of forms and purities. Therefore, there is no single price for REEs collectively but numerous prices for various REE compounds and materials. The primary value that the Company expects to generate in the short- to medium-term will come from NdPr, Dy, and Tb oxides as those are the REEs the Company plans to target for high purity separation. In addition, as discussed above, the Company commenced production of separated NdPr in 2024. Furthermore, if the Company successfully completes the acquisition of Australian Strategic Materials, the Company will have the potential to generate value from the production of REE metals and alloys.

*Monazite Concentrates*

Monazite concentrates are an excellent source of REEs, uranium and thorium, and particularly the magnetic REEs (NdPr, Sm, Tb and Dy) when compared to other REE-bearing minerals. The uranium in monazite can be used for nuclear power, and thorium can potentially be used for thorium salt reactors and medical isotope production.

Most monazite produced from HMS is in the form of either a separated monazite concentrate or as monazite contained in HMC. Currently, most monazite concentrates produced globally are shipped to China. Current demand growth for monazite is closely linked to the growing push for clean energy technologies, such as EVs and wind turbines.

Monazite prices have been on an upward trend since mid-2025 due to an improvement in REE pricing linked to Chinese government-imposed restrictions on REE exports from China. Prices continued to move upward through Q1 2026.

The following tables set forth the prices for certain REE compounds and materials mid-point prices in RMB¥/kg and their approximate value in USD$/kg, according to data from Benchmark Mineral Intelligence ("**Benchmark**") (X-China pricing) and Asian Metal (Chinese pricing):

The REE magnet market is expected to see significant growth through 2040 per Adamas Intelligence, driven by increasing demand for NdFeB magnets in EVs, PHEVs, robotics, advanced air mobility, and defense. While China consumes the most REEs in its manufacturing industries, much of it is consumed in the manufacture of end-use goods for export and by non-Chinese companies operating within China. REE separation facilities are additionally located in Vietnam, India, as well as Neo Performance Materials' Silmet facility in Estonia, processing a variety of feedstocks and sources. In addition, there are small-scale or experimental operational facilities located elsewhere (Russia included).

The Company views its commercial production of separated NdPr, pilot production of separated Dy and Tb, and planned future production of separated Sm, Eu, and Gd, from both monazite concentrates (current) and MREC (future), as important first steps toward restoring a REE supply chain controlled by the U.S. where one currently does not exist. By acquiring the Vara Mada Project, Bahia Project, and the right to earn into a 49% interest in the Donald Project, the Company has secured what it believes will be low-cost monazite feedstocks that can be processed in the U.S. into separated REE products available for sale to U.S. and allied customers on a competitive basis. Upon successful development of those projects, expected to be in the 2028 to 2030 time frame, the Company will have secured monazite sources capable of producing up to approximately 4,500 tonnes per year of separated NdPr along with 200 to 300 tonnes per year of separated Dy and Tb.

To further restore a U.S.-controlled REE supply chain, the Company expects to develop the Mill's planned Phase 2 Circuit (expected in the 2028-to-2029 timeframe), which would have the capacity to allow the Mill to produce in total (from the Phase 1 Circuit and the Phase 2 Circuit) up to 6,000 tonnes per year of separated NdPr along with 200 to 300 tonnes per year of separated Dy and Tb, which would utilize all the monazite concentrates expected to be mined from the Company's Vara Mada, Bahia, and Donald Projects and any additional monazite expected to be sourced from Chemours' mines on the U.S. East Coast and others. Multiple potential domestic sources of mined HMS, including monazite, exist in North America and are potential feedstocks for the Mill. On a global level, there is a potential to acquire natural monazite sands from the following locations: Australia, South Africa, Madagascar, New Zealand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Brazil, Malaysia, Thailand, India, Russia and others.

Upon the successful acquisition of ASM, which is expected to occur as soon as July 2026, the Company will combine ASM's Korean Metals Plant and its planned American Metals Plant with REE oxide production at the Mill. The Company will also own the advanced Dubbo REE Project in Australia. This transaction is expected to create what the Company believes would be the largest fully integrated REE "mine-to-metal and alloy" producer outside of China to close a critical strategic gap in the global supply chains for magnet applications, including automotive, robotic, energy and defense technologies. As demand for these advanced technologies increases in the coming years, the Company expects demand and prices for REEs to increase. Increases in supply sources for REEs are expected in conjunction with this anticipated rising demand.

<u>Heavy Mineral Sands Market</u>

*General*

HMS is typically categorized into titanium dioxide-bearing minerals such as ilmenite and rutile (but also including leucoxene and upgraded products such as slag and synthetic rutile), zircon, monazite and xenotime.

*Titanium Dioxide Minerals*

Ilmenite and rutile are primarily used as feedstock for the production of titanium ("**TiO2**") pigment with a small percentage also used in the production of titanium metal and fluxes for welding rods and wire. TiO2 is the most widely used white pigment because of its nontoxicity, brightness and very high refractive index. It is an essential component of consumer products such as paint, plastics and paper. Pigment demand is therefore the major driver of ilmenite and rutile pricing.

Weak global pigment demand continued through Q1 2026 due to ongoing economic weakness and the increased uncertainty and cost implications arising from the war in Iran. However, a combination of idled production at some major pigment operations, reductions in pigment inventory and rising input costs have resulted in major pigment producers announcing price increases through Q1 2026 into Q2 2026.

The sulfate pigment process, which relies on sulfur or sulfuric acid as a key input, remains the major technology utilized for pigment production in China. The recent steep increase in global sulfur prices resulting from production and trade disruptions in the Middle East have presented a major challenge to all sulfate pigment producers. This is compounding recent increases in export freight costs and the ongoing impact of high tariffs on Chinese pigment imports in the key markets of Europe, Brazil and India. Chinese pigment producers have begun seeking increases in pigment prices in an attempt to halt the prolonged squeeze on producer margins. Pigment production in China is the major global source of demand for sulfate ilmenite. As part of the attempt to improve financial performance, Chinese pigment producers continue to put pressure on sulfate ilmenite suppliers to reduce sulfate ilmenite prices. Increased shipping costs, resulting from recent fuel cost escalation, are expected to further erode net prices received by sulfate ilmenite suppliers.

Western pigment producers are the main source of demand for chloride ilmenite and high-grade feedstocks including rutile. Major western pigment producers continue to experience challenges from the weak and uncertain economic conditions. However, the idling of a number of pigment plants (owned by a major global pigment producer who entered administration) across Europe and Asia has taken some pressure off the market and pigment inventories have recently been decreasing. Western pigment producers are competing to gain market share from the idled facilities as well as from Chinese producers in those markets in which tariffs have been applied to Chinese pigment imports. The idled pigment operations, as well as low production utilization rates at other production facilities, have eroded demand and pricing for rutile and chloride ilmenite. However, if western pigment producers succeed in gaining market share, and increasing their rates of production, demand for rutile and chloride ilmenite is expected to improve. The suspension of production of synthetic rutile by a major producer from December 1, 2025 may help to alleviate pressure on the high-grade feedstock market through 2026. Chloride ilmenite, regarded as a niche feedstock for western pigment production with a high relative economic value, is typically purchased under long-term offtake arrangements and generally experiences limited short-term price fluctuations. An incident at a major mineral sands mining operation in Africa during Q1 2026 is likely to impact chloride ilmenite supply for a significant part of 2026.

Demand for rutile from the welding and titanium metal sectors remains firm. The main drivers of demand have been the shipbuilding and aerospace industries combined with sanctions on Russian-supply of raw materials. However, the extent of the rutile price premium into these sectors (above pigment sector pricing) has eroded due to an excess of global supply including the increase in production of premium rutile in China from concentrates being imported into China from Africa.

The Company believes that longer-term fundamentals for rutile and all grades of ilmenite are positive. Long-term pigment demand, driving consumption of rutile and ilmenite, is expected to grow at the rate of global GDP and should recover from the subdued conditions of recent years as more certainty returns to markets and we see a return to sustainable growth in housing and building sectors. Supply of TiO2 feedstock to meet future demand remains dependent on a significant amount of new supply entering the market from new projects.

*Zircon*

Zircon has a range of end-uses, the predominant of which is in the production of ceramic tiles, accounting for more than 50% of global zircon consumption. Milled zircon enables ceramic tile manufacturers to achieve brilliant opacity, whiteness and brightness in their products. Zircon's unique properties include heat and wear resistance, stability, opacity, hardness and strength, making it sought after for other applications such as refractories, foundries and specialty chemicals.

Demand growth for zircon is closely linked to growth in global construction and increasing urbanization in the developing world.

While zircon market conditions generally remained subdued through Q1 2026, the curtailment of supply by some major producers, together with some supply disruptions and a reduction in inventories in China, appears to have stabilized zircon prices and led to some zircon producers seeking price increases for Q2 2026. After a prolonged period of weakness, zircon demand in China, the largest global consumer of zircon, appears to have improved in the early stages of 2026. Improvement in zircon prices will depend on the extent and sustainability of this uplift in demand and the extent to which reduced supply returns to the market.

The Company believes that the longer-term fundamentals for zircon are positive. Zircon demand growth is expected to closely follow GDP and to be driven by recoveries in demand for ceramics in housing and building, as well as growth in industrial manufacturing including foundries for steel products and refractories for glass production (including solar panels). Supply of zircon to meet future demand is also highly dependent on a significant amount of new supply entering the market from new projects.

The following table sets forth certain HMS prices in USD$/t (freight on board basis), according to TZ Minerals International Pty Ltd.'s estimated market prices published in March 2026:

**Inventories**

The Company is well-stocked to meet its long-term uranium contract sales and potential spot sales as market conditions warrant. The Company's inventory balances as of March 31, 2026 were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Ore, mineralized material and raw materials (estimated contained pounds of U3O8) | 960000 |
| Work-in-process (contained pounds of U3O8) | 180000 |
| Finished pounds of U3O8 | 1100000 |
| Total pounds of finished and contained U3O8 | 2240000 |

---

The mix between contained uranium in ore and mineralized material inventories and finished U3O8 product inventory depends on the timing of the processing of stockpiled uranium mineralized material at the Mill, any spot uranium sales or purchases the Company may elect to complete in 2026.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company has approximately 905,000 pounds of finished V2O5 in inventory, and there remains an estimated 1.0 to 3.0 million pounds of additional solubilized recoverable V2O5 in tailings solutions at the Mill awaiting future recovery, as market conditions may warrant.

**Outlook for Remainder of 2026**

<u>Guidance</u>

The Company's guidance for 2026 is as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Low** | **High** |
| Mined (contained pounds of U3O8) | 2000000 | 2500000 |
| Processed (finished pounds of U3O8)<sup>(1)</sup> | 1500000 | 2500000 |
| Sales (pounds of U3O8)<sup>(2)</sup> | 1500000 | 2000000 |

---

(1) Assumes the conventional uranium Mill run continues through 2026 including downtime for planned maintenance. The conventional Mill run is expected to be completed once available stockpiled mineralized materials have been processed. A subsequent Mill run will proceed pending receipt of sufficient mineralized material stockpiles to justify the restart, which is currently expected to be in later in 2026 or early in 2027.

(2) Subject to sales into the spot market depending on market conditions.

<u>Finished Uranium Costs Expected to Continue to Decline</u>

The Company commenced processing low-cost Pinyon Plain mine ores in Q4 2025. We expect to process approximately 1.5 to 2.5 million pounds of finished U3O8 in 2026. During this Mill run, the Company expects the average mining and transportation costs to the Mill for Pinyon Plain ore to be $10 to $14 per pound of recovered U3O8, which together with an expected milling cost of approximately $13 to $16 per pound U3O8, are expected to result in a total weighted average cost of approximately $23 to $30 per pound of U3O8 recovered. The Company believes this ranks among the lowest costs for mined uranium production in the world. These high-grade Pinyon Plain ores are expected to be blended and processed with a relatively small quantity of lower grade, higher cost, La Sal/Pandora ores at the Company's discretion.

The Company's inventories of finished U3O8 had a weighted average cost of approximately $36 per pound U3O8 as of March 31, 2026, reflecting the weighted average cost of production and purchases of finished inventories from various sources over the years, as the Company continued to ramp up production and maximize economies of scale, including from Alternate Feed Materials, the La Sal/Pandora mines, low-grade mine clean-up materials, and purchases of uranium on the spot market. These costs do not fully reflect the expected lower costs of recently mined ores from the Pinyon Plain mine, which had only been processed and added to inventories commencing in early October (a conventional ore processing run, including Pinyon Plain and La Sal/Pandora ores, commenced at the Mill in early October 2025).

As the Company accounts for cost of goods sold as the weighted average cost of its finished product inventories, sales of uranium produced in 2026 will reflect the blended average of the 1,100,000 pounds of U3O8 in finished inventories as of December 31, 2025, plus the cost of additional finished U3O8 produced from blended Pinyon Plain and La Sal/Pandora ores. This is expected to result in costs of goods sold continuing to decline to the $30 to $40 per pound range in during the remainder of 2026, depending on the quantity of any additional spot sales of inventory that may be made in throughout 2026. The Company's ability to blend and match various sources of uranium feeds to satisfy contract delivery requirements is a unique element of the Company's production capabilities that no other producer has in North America.

Based on expected decreasing cost of goods sold and conservative uranium price forecasts, gross margins from the Company's uranium sales are expected to increase over time through 2026, subject to the pricing of its contracts at the time of sale.

<u>Uranium Sales</u>

The Company sells uranium into its long-term contract portfolio and as well as a portion of its inventories on the spot market depending on uranium price movements and inventories.

The Company's six long-term utility contracts require future deliveries of uranium between 2026 and 2032. The actual volumes delivered under these contracts varies based on the buyer's exercise of options and quantity flexibility. The Company remains actively engaged in pursuing additional selective long-term uranium sales contracts due to observed upticks in interest from nuclear utilities seeking long-term supply. As of March 31, 2026, the Company's contracted uranium sales volumes are as follows (in pounds):

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Minimum** | **Base** | **Maximum** |
| Remainder of the year ending December 31, 2026 | 330000 | 400000 | 470000 |
| Year ending December 31, 2027 | 770000 | 890000 | 1130000 |
| Year ending December 31, 2028 | 770000 | 890000 | 1130000 |
| Year ending December 31, 2029 | 490000 | 560000 | 1010000 |
| Year ending December 31, 2030 | 400000 | 460000 | 900000 |
| Thereafter | 160000 | 160000 | 240000 |
| Total | 2920000 | 3360000 | 4880000 |

---

The Company holds uncommitted inventory and expects to evaluate additional spot and/or long-term uranium sales opportunities. The Company may also evaluate the purchase of uranium on the spot market, subject to market conditions, contract requirements and the Mill's schedule for processing uranium ore stockpiles at the Mill.

**Succession Planning**

On April 15, 2026, the Company appointed Ross R. Bhappu as its President and Chief Executive Officer pursuant to a previously announced management succession plan. Mr. Bhappu succeeded Mark S. Chalmers, who retired after more than eight years as Chief Executive Officer. In connection with his retirement, Mr. Chalmers was entitled to retirement-related benefits under his employment arrangements, including approximately $2.10 million in cash severance and equity-based awards valued at approximately $1.05 million. These arrangements were contemplated as part of the Company's previously established succession planning process. Mr. Chalmers agreed to continue to support the Company as an exclusive consultant for a two-year period. The Company believes this leadership transition provides continuity while positioning the Company to advance into its next phase of growth.

**The San Juan County Clean Energy Foundation**

The San Juan County Clean Energy Foundation (the "**Foundation**") is a fund specifically designed to contribute to the communities surrounding the Mill in southeastern Utah. Energy Fuels deposited an initial $1 million into the Foundation at the time of formation and now provides ongoing funding equal to 1% of the Mill's revenues, thereby providing an ongoing source of funding to support local priorities. The Foundation focuses on supporting education, the environment, health/wellness, and local economic development in the City of Blanding, San Juan County, the White Mesa Ute Community, the Navajo Nation and other area communities.

An Advisory Board, comprised of local citizens from San Juan County, evaluates grant applications on a quarterly basis and makes recommendations to the Foundation's Managers for final review and approval. As of March 31, 2026, the Foundation has awarded 48 grants totaling $0.86 million, of which $0.29 million was committed to Native American initiatives.

**Known Trends or Uncertainties**

The Company has had negative net cash flows from operating activities and net losses in previous years and through the three months ended March 31, 2026. This is due to generally depressed uranium and vanadium prices up until 2024, low quantities of monazite to recover salable REE products, which has not allowed the Company to realize economies of scale and capital expenditures to develop the Company's growing portfolio projects.

As part of its growth objectives and business plan, the Company routinely assesses strategic acquisition, investment and financing opportunities, including opportunities at various stages of the supply chain that are complementary or adjacent to the Company's current operations. The Company is currently in various stages of considering, and in some cases discussing and negotiating with counterparties in relation to, such acquisition, investment and financing opportunities. There is no certainty, and no assurance can be given, as to whether any definitive agreements will be entered into in relation to any material acquisition, investment or financing opportunities in the future. Further, even if any such definitive agreements are entered into in the future, no assurance can be provided as to whether any material transactions will ultimately be completed.

The Company's ability to execute its business plan effectively will depend in part on its ability to raise additional capital for the completion of any material future acquisitions and investments. No assurance can be given that any such additional funding will be made available or that, if available, it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company or its shareholders. Any additional equity financing raised to provide such funding, or issuance of shares as consideration under the relevant transaction, may be dilutive to shareholders and any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. In addition, if any such acquisition, investment or joint venture opportunities are completed, the Company may be exposed to risks specific to the acquired business or asset, including risks relating to operations, regulatory compliance, technology, supply chains, markets, management, integration, or other factors that differ from, or are outside of, the Company's historical areas of experience, and such risks could adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We are not aware at this time of any trends or uncertainties that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on revenues, income or cash flows of the Company, other than: (i) recent activity in uranium markets, which has resulted in: (a) the Company's six long-term uranium supply agreements, with remaining deliveries of 330,000 to 470,000 pounds in 2026 depending on customer elections; (b) the Company continuing mining at three of its uranium mines (Pinyon Plain, La Sal and Pandora); and (c) selling uranium inventories and mined uranium production into its long-term contracts, and potentially on the spot market; (ii) U.S. government laws and programs, including any tariffs enacted by the President and retaliatory tariffs proposed by other countries, which could increase the cost to produce any of the Company's products and also in changes in demand and prices received for the Company's sale of its products, depending on how much tariff and other trade activities settle out, which could result in the development of commercial markets for "heavy" REEs that did not previously exist in the U.S. and U.S. government support for critical minerals, including uranium, production; (iii) volatility in prices of uranium,

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, net loss decreased by $15.36 million to $10.96 million or $0.04 per share from $26.32 million or $0.13 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher uranium concentrates revenues driven by the timing of uranium contract deliveries, as well as an increase in other income, partially offset by higher operating costs between periods.

<u>Revenues</u>

Revenues increased by $18.94 million to $35.84 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $16.90 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher uranium concentrates revenues driven by the timing of contract deliveries, the Mill's operating schedules and related market conditions, partially offset by the absence of HMS sales.

<u>Costs Applicable to Revenues</u>

Costs applicable to revenue increased by $3.36 million to $21.48 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $18.12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher uranium volumes sold at higher cost per pound of U3O8, partially offset by the absence of HMS sales and related costs.

<u>Other Operating Costs and Expenses</u>

*Exploration, development and processing (excluding share-based compensation)*

Exploration, development and processing costs (excluding share-based compensation) increased by $1.64 million to $8.09 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $6.45 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily due to higher development costs at the Mill for increased headcount and higher exploration costs at the Bahia Project, partially offset by lower costs capitalized to mineral properties between periods as the Company established proven and probable reserves for the Juniper Zone at Pinyon Plain.

While we expect exploration and development costs related to our mineral properties to provide future value to the Company, the Company expenses these costs in part due to the fact that the Company has not established Proven Mineral Reserves or Probable Mineral Reserves as defined by S-K 1300 or NI 43-101 through the completion of a feasibility or pre-feasibility study for several of the Company's projects as of March 31, 2026, with the exception of its Vara Mada, Pinyon Plain and Sheep Mountain Projects.

*Standby*

Standby costs are related to the care and maintenance of the standby mines and are expensed as incurred. Standby costs increased by $1.47 million to $3.34 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $1.87 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to advancing permitting and development on its Roca Honda Project and higher general maintenance costs as a result of inflation.

*Accretion of asset retirement obligations*

Accretion of asset retirement obligations decreased by $0.47 million to $0.60 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $1.07 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to the substantial completion of rehabilitation activities at the Kwale Project.

*Selling, general and administrative (excluding share-based compensation)*

Selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding share-based compensation) increased by $0.39 million to $13.37 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $12.98 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to increases in general headcount, salaries and benefits.

*Share-based compensation*

Share-based compensation increased by $0.90 million to $3.51 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $2.61 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to the higher grant fair values of awards.

*Transaction and integration related costs*

Transaction and integration related costs are for legal, advisory and accounting fees directly related to the planned acquisition of ASM. Transaction and integration related costs were $2.38 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. There were no transaction and integration related costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

<u>Other Income (Loss)</u>

*Other income (loss)*

Other income was $5.79 million, net for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Other loss was $1.49 million, net for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The change was primarily due to mark-to-market gains on marketable securities in 2026 compared to mark-to-market losses in 2025, higher realized gains on maturities of marketable securities, and higher interest income, partially offset by a lower foreign exchange loss in 2026. See Note 14 — *Supplemental Financial Information* for more information.

*Income tax benefit (expense)*

Income tax expense was $0.05 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 on loss before income taxes of $10.91 million. The income tax expense is primarily due to Brazil income tax arising from transfer pricing revenue recognized. Income tax benefit was $1.15 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 on loss before income taxes of $27.47 million. The

income tax benefit was primarily due to the reversal of the tax liability for Base Titanium Limited that was recorded prior to the acquisition of Base Resources.

**Segment Results of Operations**

We have three reportable segments: (i) uranium, (ii) REE and (iii) HMS. The uranium segment engages in conventional and *in situ* recovery uranium extraction, recovery and sales of uranium from mineral properties and the recycling of uranium-bearing materials generated by third parties along with the exploration, permitting and evaluation of uranium properties in the U.S. As part of these activities, the Company also acquires, explores, evaluates and, if warranted, permits uranium properties. The Company's final uranium product is U3O8, which is sold to customers for further processing into fuel for nuclear reactors. The Company also produces vanadium pentoxide, V2O5, as a co-product of uranium at the Mill, as market conditions warrant. In addition to uranium, the Company is also exploring opportunities to separate radium-226 and radium-228 as a coproduct of uranium process streams at the Mill. The REE segment is engaged in the Company's initiatives to progress towards full REE separation capabilities at the Mill to produce both "light" and "heavy" separated REE products in the coming years. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company completed the construction and commissioning of Phase 1 of the modification and enhancement of its infrastructure at the Mill. The Company expects to procure monazite through Company-owned mines like the Vara Mada Project, Bahia Project, its JV interest in the Donald Project and other potential joint ventures or other collaborations, as well as open market purchases. The HMS segment engages in the exploration, development and recovery of HMS at the Kwale Project (now in reclamation), Bahia Project and Vara Mada Project and includes the Company's equity method investments in the Donald Project JV and Tate. The Company recovers stand-alone ilmenite, rutile, zircon and monazite to provide sources of titanium and zirconium.

**Uranium Segment Results**

<u>Revenues</u>

*Uranium concentrates*

Revenues from uranium concentrates was $35.72 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company sold 100,000 pounds of U3O8 on the spot market for $9.59 million at a weighted average sales price of $95.88 per pound for the three months ended March 31, 2026. The Company sold 410,000 pounds of U3O8 under existing long-term contracts for $26.13 million, at a weighted average sales price of $63.74 per pound for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

There were no revenues from uranium concentrates for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

*Alternate Feed Materials, processing and other*

Revenues from Alternate Feed Materials, processing and other decreased by $1.24 million to $0.12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $1.36 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is primarily due to processing certain alternate feed material including the recognition of related deferred revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

<u>Costs Applicable to Revenues</u>

*Costs applicable to uranium concentrates*

Costs applicable to uranium concentrates was $21.48 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. There were no costs applicable to uranium concentrates for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

**Rare Earth Element Segment Results**

There were no revenues or costs applicable to rare earth element revenues for either of the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

**Heavy Mineral Sand Segment Results**

Revenues from HMS were $15.54 million and costs applicable to HMS were $18.12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. There were no revenues or costs applicable to heavy mineral sands for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

**Funding of Major Cash Requirements**

Our primary short-term and long-term cash requirements are to fund working capital needs and operating expenses, capital expenditures and potential future growth opportunities through ongoing initiatives such as our REE separation capacity expansion, development of the Vara Mada Project, earn-in to the Donald Project JV, uranium mining activities at the Pinyon Plain, La Sal and Pandora mines, processing activities at the Mill, exploration activities at the Bahia Project, TAT radioisotope initiative and reclamation of the Kwale Project, as well as potential business and property acquisitions.

We expect to be able to fund working capital and operating expenses, capital expenditures and currently planned growth initiatives over the next 12 months through available cash balances and product inventory sales, if needed. We may also increase our working capital through issuances of Common Shares pursuant to our ATM in appropriate circumstances and fund our capital expenditures and potential future growth opportunities through debt and/or equity financings. We intend to continue to pursue the acquisition of monazite mineral rights and other uranium producing assets.

**Shares Issued for Cash**

The Company has an ATM in place, which allows the Company to make Common Share distributions to the extent qualified under a U.S. shelf registration statement on Form S-3 ("**Shelf Registration Statement**") and one or more prospectus supplements. The Company's current Shelf Registration Statement went effective on March 22, 2024 and permits the Company to sell any combination of its common shares, warrants, rights, subscriptions receipts, preferred shares, debt securities and/or units in one or more offerings. On June 13, 2025, we filed with the SEC a Prospectus Supplement to our Shelf Registration Statement, qualifying for distribution up to $300.00 million in additional Common Shares under the ATM. Sales made pursuant to the above summarized U.S. shelf registration statements and prospectus supplements are made on the NYSE American at then-prevailing market prices, or any other existing trading market of the Common Shares in the U.S. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company issued 3.04 million Common Shares for net proceeds of $52.77 million under the ATM. See Note 11 — *Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share* for more information.

**Convertible Senior Notes**

On October 3, 2025, the Company closed its upsized offering of $700.00 million aggregate principal amount of 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 for aggregate gross proceeds of $700.00 million. The Notes bear interest at 0.75% per annum, payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1, beginning May 1, 2026, and mature on November 1, 2031, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased. The initial conversion price of the Notes is approximately $20.34 per common share, representing a 32.5% premium to the last reported sale price of the Common Shares on the NYSE American on September 30, 2025. The conversion price is subject to customary adjustments.

In connection with the offering, the Company entered into capped call transactions that are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Common Shares upon any conversion of the Notes and/or offset potential cash payments the Company may be required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap initially equal to $30.70 per share (which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of Common Shares on the NYSE American on September 30, 2025), and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions.

Net proceeds from the offering are intended to support REE initiatives, including expansion at the White Mesa Mill and the Donald Project, as well as general corporate purposes.

**Working Capital and Future Requirements for Funds**

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had working capital of $956.63 million, including $108.45 million in cash and cash equivalents, $802.24 million of marketable securities, approximately 1,100,000 pounds of uranium finished goods inventory and approximately 905,000 pounds of vanadium finished goods inventory. The Company believes it has sufficient cash and resources to carry out its business plan for at least the next twelve months.

The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its working capital and its capital structure.

<u>Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2025</u> 

*Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities*

Net cash provided by operating activities was $8.32 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Net cash used in operating activities was $18.83 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is primarily due to higher cash receipts from uranium sales during the period, including the collection of a significant portion of receivables within the quarter, and lower cash outflows associated with asset retirement obligation settlements, as the prior year period reflected higher settlement activity.

*Net cash used in investing activities*

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $8.27 million to $15.10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $23.37 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in the net cash outflows from purchases and maturities of marketable securities of $8.91 million, decrease in additions of $3.23 million to property, plant, and equipment and mineral properties between periods, decreased contributions to our investments in the Donald Project JV and Tate of $2.64 million, which was partially offset by proceeds from asset sales of $0.29 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

*Net cash provided by financing activities*

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $28.15 million to $49.69 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $77.84 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to lower proceeds of $24.86 million for the issuance of Common Shares for cash, net under the ATM and the increase of $4.36 million in cash paid upon vesting of RSUs.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our financial statements. We provide expanded discussion of our more significant accounting policies, estimates and judgments in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. We believe these accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparation of our financial statements.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.**

The Company is exposed to risks associated with commodity prices, interest rates and credit. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential loss that we may incur as a result of changes in the market value of uranium, vanadium, REEs, HMC and HMS products. Interest rate risk results from our debt and equity instruments that we issue to provide financing and liquidity for our business. Credit risk arises from the extension of credit throughout all aspects of our business. Industry-wide risks can also affect our general ability to finance exploration, and development of exploitable resources; such effects are not predictable or quantifiable. Market risk is the risk to the Company of adverse financial impact due to changes in the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments as a result of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

**Commodity Price Risk**

Our profitability is directly related to the market price of uranium, vanadium, REEs, HMC and HMS products recovered. We may, from time to time, undertake commodity and currency hedging programs, with the intention of maintaining adequate cash flows and profitability to contribute to the long-term viability of the business. We anticipate selling forward in the ordinary course of business if, and when, we have sufficient assets and recovery to support forward sale arrangements, and forward sale arrangements are available on suitable terms. There are, however, risks associated with forward sale programs. If we do not have sufficient recovered product to meet our forward sale commitments, we may have to buy or borrow (for later delivery back from recovered product) sufficient product in the spot market to deliver under the forward sales contracts, possibly at higher prices than provided for in the forward sales contracts, or potentially default on such deliveries. In addition, under forward contracts, we may be forced to sell at prices that are lower than the prices that may be available on the spot market when such deliveries are completed. Although we may employ various pricing mechanisms within our sales contracts to manage our exposure to price fluctuations, there can be no assurance that such mechanisms will be successful. There can also be no assurance that we will be able to enter into term contracts for future sales of uranium, vanadium, separated NdPr, REE oxides or other REE products or HMC or HMS products at prices or in quantities that would allow us to successfully manage our exposure to price fluctuations.

**Interest Rate Risk**

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its cash equivalents, deposits, and restricted cash. The Company does not use derivatives to manage interest rate risk. Our interest income is earned in U.S. dollars and is not subject to currency risk.

**Currency Risk**

The foreign exchange risk relates to the risk that the value of financial commitments, recognized assets or liabilities will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency rates. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As the U.S. Dollar is the functional currency of our U.S. operations, the currency risk has been reduced. We maintain a nominal balance in Canadian dollars, Australian dollars, Kenyan Shillings, Malagasy Ariary and Brazilian Real, resulting in a low currency risk relative to our cash and cash equivalent balances. We also hold equity marketable securities in Canadian dollars.

The following table summarizes, in U.S. dollar equivalents, the Company's major foreign currency (identified above) exposures as of March 31, 2026 (in thousands):

**Credit Risk**

Credit risk relates to cash and cash equivalents, trade, and other receivables that arise from the possibility that any counterparty to an instrument fails to perform. The Company primarily transacts with highly rated counterparties, and a limit on contingent exposure has been established for any counterparty based on that counterparty's credit rating. As of March 31, 2026, the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk was the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade and note receivables and marketable debt securities.

**ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.**

**Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures**

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "**Exchange Act**")), are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and to ensure that material information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, with assistance from other members of management, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026, and, based on their evaluation, have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date as was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

**Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

During the fiscal period covered by this report, the Company's management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as amended). Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

**ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION.**

On May 5, 2026, the Company, together with its wholly owned subsidiary Energy Fuels Resources (USA) Inc., entered into a new Employment Agreement with Ross R. Bhappu, newly appointed President and Chief Executive Officer and executive Director of the Company, having an effective date of April 16, 2026 (the "**Bhappu Agreement**"). The Bhappu Agreement is the same, in most respects, to his original employment agreement dated July 30, 2025, having an effective date of August 4, 2025 (the "**Original Agreement**"), pursuant to which he was acting as President of the Company, except as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.Mr. Bhappu's annual base salary was updated from the Original Agreement's $550,000 to $600,000, subject to review and increase at the discretion of the Company (the "**Revised Bhappu Base Salary**");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.Any notice given by the Company or Mr. Bhappu not to renew the Bhappu Agreement after its initial two-year term shall be provided in writing at least one hundred eighty (180) days, rather than ninety (90) days as contemplated by the Original Agreement, prior to the end of the employment period then in effect. As a result, the Bhappu Agreement will be automatically renewed for twelve (12) additional months, and if neither Company nor Mr. Bhappu provides written notice of intent not to renew the Bhappu Agreement prior to one hundred eighty (180) days before the end of such additional 12-month period, the Bhappu Agreement will continue to be automatically renewed for successive additional 12-month periods until such time as either the Company or Mr. Bhappu provides written notice of intent not to renew prior to one hundred eighty (180) days before the end of any such renewal period; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.The Company may terminate the Bhappu Agreement for just cause, without just cause or in the event of a disability. Mr. Bhappu may terminate his employment for "good reason" upon occurrence of the events specified in the Bhappu Agreement. In the event Mr. Bhappu's employment is terminated by the Company without Just Cause or upon a Disability, or Mr. Bhappu elects to resign for Good Reason (as each are defined in the Bhappu Agreement), or upon his death, he or his estate will be entitled to severance pay equal to 2.0 times (rather than 1.0 times per the Original Agreement) the sum of the Revised Bhappu Base Salary and the "**Bhappu Target Cash Bonus**" (being 85% of the Revised Bhappu Base Salary for the year in which the cash bonus is paid, subject to the Company's Short Term Incentive Plan) for the full year in which the date of termination occurs (the "**Regular Severance Factor**"), plus all accrued obligations, including any outstanding Revised Bhappu Base Salary, accrued and unused vacation pay and any other cash benefits accrued up to and including the date of termination ("**Accrued Obligations**"), less required withholdings. The estimated amount payable to Mr. Bhappu in the case of termination without Just Cause or upon Disability, or for Good Reason or death, based upon the Revised Bhappu Base Salary, would be a cash payment in the amount of $2,220,000.

------

<u>[Tabl](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[e of](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[Con](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[tent](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)[s](#i5f08701d2d4247f2bf006caf36b6555f_7)</u>

However, in the case of termination following a Change of Control (as defined in the Bhappu Agreement), Mr. Bhappu or his estate will be entitled to severance pay equal to 2.99 times the sum of the Revised Bhappu Base Salary and the Bhappu Target Cash Bonus for the full year in which the date of termination occurs (the "**Change of Control Severance Factor**"), plus all Accrued Obligations, less required withholdings (as the case may be, subject to either the Regular Severance Factor or Change of Control Severance Factor, the "**Bhappu Severance Amount**"). The estimated amount payable to Mr. Bhappu in the case of termination following a Change of Control, subject to the Change of Control Severance Factor and based upon the Revised Bhappu Base Salary, would be a cash payment in the amount of $3,318,900.

In addition to his Bhappu Target Cash Bonus opportunity during each calendar year, Mr. Bhappu has an equity award opportunity during each calendar year with a target value equal to 120% of his Revised Bhappu Base Salary, subject to the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan.

If Mr. Bhappu's employment is terminated without just cause or for a disability, or Mr. Bhappu elects to resign for good reason, or Mr. Bhappu dies, in any case whether before or after a change of control or in the absence of any change of control, then, in addition to the payment of the Bhappu Severance Amount and all Accrued Obligations, Mr. Bhappu or his estate will (A) have up to the earlier of (i) 90 days from the date of termination for all cases other than death and twelve (12) months from the date of termination in the case of death, or (ii) the expiry date when the particular stock option expires, to exercise the stock options previously granted to Mr. Bhappu that have vested but have not yet been exercised; (B) be paid (or issued shares issuable thereunder) any RSUs that have vested and are unpaid as of the date of termination; and (C) receive any other rights available to him or his estate in respect of any SARs or other awards granted to Mr. Bhappu up to his date of termination. Any stock options and RSUs that are not vested on or before his date of termination will be immediately cancelled and forfeited to the Company.

Mr. Bhappu is also subject to a Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement.

The forgoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Bhappu Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a "Rule 10b5–1 Trading Arrangement" or "non-Rule 10b5–1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.

Bhappu ("**Employee**"). In this Agreement, Employee and the Company are referred to jointly and collectively as the "**Parties**," and generally and singularly as a "**Party**."

In consideration of the promises and agreements contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Employee hereby agree as follows:

**ARTICLE 1**

**EMPLOYMENT, REPORTING AND DUTIES**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1Employment. The Company hereby employs and engages the services of Employee to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer, and Employee agrees to diligently and competently serve as and perform the functions of President and Chief Executive Officer for the compensation and benefits stated herein. A copy of Employee's current job description is attached hereto as Exhibit A, and Company and Employee agree and acknowledge that, subject to Section 4.2(b), Company retains the right to reasonably add to, or remove, duties and responsibilities set forth in that job description as business or other operating reasons may arise for changes to occur. It is understood that, as President, Employee will be appointed an officer of EFI and EFRI under this Agreement, but that Employee's direct employment relationship will be as an employee of EFRI.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2<u>Full-time Service</u>. Excluding any periods of vacation and sick leave to which Employee may be entitled, Employee agrees to devote Employee's full time and energies to the responsibilities with the Company and shall not, during the Term of this Agreement (defined in Article 3 below), be engaged in any business activity which would interfere with or prevent Employee from carrying out Employee's duties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee shall be entitled to seek and maintain one non-executive, non-chair directorship with a publicly traded company that does not compete directly or indirectly with the Company in any of the Company's primary business lines, in addition to directorships on private family holding companies or on any company where Employee is requested by the Company to seek or maintain a directorship.

**ARTICLE 2**

**COMPENSATION AND RELATED ITEMS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1<u>Compensation</u>. As compensation and consideration for the services to be rendered by Employee under this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay Employee and Employee agrees to accept:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)*Base Salary and Benefits.* A base salary ("**Base Salary**") of $600,000 per annum, less applicable withholdings, which shall be paid in accordance with the Company's standard payroll practices. Employee's Base Salary may be increased from time to time (but not decreased, including after any increase, without Employee's written consent), at the discretion of the Company, and after any such change, Employee's new level of Base Salary shall be Employee's Base Salary for purposes of this Agreement until the effective date of any subsequent change. Employee also shall receive benefits such as health insurance, vacation and

------

other benefits consistent with the then applicable Company benefit plans to the same extent as other employees of the Company with similar positions or levels. Employee understands and agrees that, subject to Sections 2.1(b) and (c) below, the Company's benefit plans may, from time to time, be modified or eliminated at Company's discretion.

Pursuant to the terms of the STIP, each annual Cash Bonus shall be payable based on the achievement of performance goals and may be higher or lower than the Target Cash Bonus based on achievement of those goals, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

Pursuant to the terms of the LTIP, each annual equity award shall be made based on the achievement of performance goals, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and may be higher or lower than the Target Equity Award based on achievement of those goals. For each calendar year during the term of this Agreement, the Board (or the Compensation Committee) of EFI will determine and will establish in writing (i) the applicable LTIP performance goals, which shall be reasonably achievable and if achieved would result in payment of the Target Equity Award, (ii) the percentage of annual Base Salary value to be awarded in equity to Employee if some lesser or greater percentage of the annual LTIP performance goals are achieved, and (iii) such other applicable terms and conditions of the LTIP necessary to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A.

That payment shall be made in one lump sum, less required withholdings, within ten (10) working days after the effective date of such termination. Employee will have up to the earlier of: (A) ninety (90) days from the effective date of termination of Employee's employment; or (B) the date on which the exercise period of the particular stock option expires, to exercise only that portion of the stock options previously granted to Employee that have not been exercised, but which have vested, and thereafter Employee's stock options will expire, and Employee will have no further right to exercise the stock options.

------

employment, or within no more than five (5) working days thereafter, and the Company will reimburse the Employee for all proper expenses incurred by the Employee in discharging his responsibilities to the Company prior to the effective date of termination of the Employee's employment in accordance with Section 2.2 above (except that, in the event that the termination of employment under this Agreement results from Employee's death, the Company shall pay all Accrued Obligations and reimbursements for business expenses on or before the payday scheduled for the pay period in which Employee died); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B)an amount in cash equal to two (2.0) however, in the case of termination following a Change of Control, an amount in cash equal to two and ninety-nine one hundredths (2.99) (the "**Severance Factor**") times the sum of Employee's Base Salary and Target Cash Bonus for the full year in which the date of termination occurs, less required withholdings, such amount to be paid within thirty (30) calendar days after the date Employee (or, if the reason for the termination is Employee's death or Disability, the legal representative of Employee's estate or Employee) signs the Release contemplated by Section 3.7;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)Employee or Employee's legal representative, or Employee's estate will have up to the earlier of: (A) ninety (90) days from the effective date of termination of Employee's employment for all cases other than the death of Employee and twelve (12) months from the effective date of termination of Employee's employment in the case of death of Employee; or (B) the date on which the exercise period of the particular stock option expires, to exercise only that portion of the stock options previously granted to Employee that have not been exercised, but which have vested, and thereafter Employee's stock options will expire and Employee or his legal representative or estate will have no further right to exercise the stock options. Subject to Section 4.1(c), any stock options held by Employee that are not yet vested at the termination date immediately expire and are cancelled and forfeited to the Company on the termination date. Any RSUs held by Employee that have vested on or before the termination date shall be paid (or the shares issuable thereunder issued) to Employee or his legal representative or estate as applicable. Subject to Section 4.1(c), any RSUs held by Employee that are not vested on or before the termination date will be immediately cancelled and forfeited to the Company on the termination date. Subject to Section 4.1(c), the rights of Employee or his legal representative or estate as applicable upon termination in respect of any SARs or other awards granted to Employee under any of the Company's equity compensation plans shall be as set forth in such plans or in the award agreement for any such awards, as applicable;

The Company (or its Successor, as defined in Section 4.1(a)) agrees to reimburse Employee for the full cost of the COBRA continuation rate charged for employee and dependent coverage, through the EFRI Health and Welfare Plan on a monthly basis, for a period of months equal to twelve (12) times the Severance Factor (the "**Coverage Period**"). Employee and his dependents may, at their choosing, enroll in the COBRA continuation plan through EFRI for the period of time permitted under COBRA following Employee's termination month or, if they choose, they may enroll in a separate plan of their choosing, by using the reimbursement to enroll in medical and prescription insurance of their choosing. The reimbursement will be to Employee directly and will be grossed up so that there is no negative tax impact to Employee or his dependents for coverage of the premiums charged by the insurance carriers for the COBRA continuation coverage for the current month of reimbursement. The reimbursed cost of COBRA coverage will be indexed annually and will match the

------

rate charged for any month of coverage available by the insurance carrier for Medical, Dental, and Optical coverage through EFRI for employee and spouse coverage. Both Employee and his dependents will have the option of purchasing a medical plan separate from the plan offered by EFRI. For the avoidance of doubt, if Employee's employment ends after Employee becomes eligible for Medicare and Employee elects coverage through Medicare, Employee's dependents may still elect COBRA coverage through EFRI's plans for the period and in the manner permitted under COBRA, provided that COBRA, as then amended, permits such continuation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)Nothing herein shall preclude the Company from granting additional severance benefits to Employee upon termination of employment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Disability, any Base Salary payable to Employee during the one hundred and eighty (180) day period of disability will be reduced by the amount of any disability benefits Employee receives or is entitled to receive as a result of any disability insurance policies for which the Company has paid the premiums.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)*Section 280G*. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, or any other plan, arrangement or agreement to the contrary, if any of the payments or benefits provided or to be provided by the Company or its affiliates to Employee or for Employee's benefit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise ("**Covered Payments**") constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the "**Code**") and would, but for this Section 3.3(c) be subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (or any successor provision thereto) or any similar tax imposed by state or local law or any interest or penalties with respect to such taxes (collectively, the "**Excise Tax**"), then the following shall apply:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)If the Covered Payments, reduced by the sum of (1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the federal, state, and local income and employment taxes payable by Employee on the amount of the Covered Payments which are in excess of three times Employee's "base amount" within the meaning of Section 280(G) of the Code less one dollar (the "**Threshold Amount**"), are greater than or equal to the Threshold Amount, Employee shall be entitled to the full benefits payable under this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)If the Threshold Amount is less than (1) the Covered Payments, but greater than (2) the Covered Payments reduced by the sum of (x) the Excise Tax and (y) the total of the Federal, state, and local income and employment taxes on the amount of the Covered Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount, then the Covered Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the extent necessary so that the sum of all Covered Payments shall not exceed the Threshold Amount. In such event, the Covered Payments shall be reduced in the following order: (A) cash payments not subject to Section 409A; (B) cash payments subject to Section 409A; (C) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (D) non-cash forms of benefits. To the extent any payment is to be made over time (e.g., in installments, etc.), then the payments shall be reduced in reverse chronological order.

The determination as to which of the alternative provisions of Section 3.3(c)(ii) shall apply to Employee shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company (the "**Accounting Firm**"), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and Employee within 15 business days of the date of termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably requested by the Company or Employee. For purposes of determining which of the alternative provisions of Section 3.3(c)(ii) shall apply, Employee shall be deemed to pay federal income taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state

------

and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates of individual taxation in the state and locality of Employee's residence on the date of termination, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and Employee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4<u>Definition of Just Cause</u>. As used in this Agreement, the term "**Just Cause**" will mean any one or more of the following events:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)theft, fraud, dishonesty, or misappropriation by Employee involving the property, business or affairs of the Company or the discharge of Employee's responsibilities or the exercise of his authority;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)willful misconduct or the willful failure by Employee to properly discharge his responsibilities or to adhere to the policies of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Employee's gross negligence in the discharge of his responsibilities or involving the property, business or affairs of the Company to the material detriment of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Employee's conviction of a criminal or other statutory offence that constitutes a felony, or which has a potential sentence of imprisonment greater than six (6) months or Employee's conviction of a criminal or other statutory offense involving, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of EFI, moral turpitude;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Employee's material breach of a fiduciary duty owed to the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)any material breach by Employee of the covenants contained in the Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement between Employee and EFRI or Employee's failure to enter into a Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement as required by and within the time provided in Article 5 below;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)Employee's unreasonable refusal to follow the lawful written direction of the Board of Directors of EFI on any material matter;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h)any conduct of Employee which, in the reasonable opinion of the Board of Directors of EFI, is materially detrimental or embarrassing to the Company; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)any other conduct by Employee that would constitute "just cause" as that term is defined at law.

Except to the extent explicitly provided in Section 5.1, the Company must provide written notice to Employee prior to termination for Just Cause pursuant to Section 3.4(c), (f), (g), (h), or (i) and provide Employee the opportunity to correct and cure the failure within thirty (30) calendar days from the receipt of such notice. If the parties disagree as to whether the Company had Just Cause to terminate the Employee's employment, the dispute will be submitted to binding arbitration pursuant to Section 8.10 below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5<u>Definition of Disabled</u>. As used herein, "**Disabled**" shall mean a mental or physical impairment which, in the reasonable opinion of a qualified doctor selected by mutual agreement of the Company and Employee acting reasonably, renders Employee unable, with or without reasonable accommodation, to perform with reasonable diligence one or more of the essential functions and duties of Employee's position on a full-time basis and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, which inability continues for a period of not less than one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days. The providing of service to the Company for up to two (2) three

------

(3) day periods during the one hundred eighty (180) day period of disability will not affect the determination as to whether Employee is Disabled and will not restart the one hundred and eighty (180) day period of disability. If any dispute arises between the parties as to whether Employee is Disabled, Employee will submit to an examination by a physician selected by the mutual agreement of the Company and Employee acting reasonably, at the Company's expense. The decision of the physician will be certified in writing to the Company, will be sent by the physician to Employee or Employee's legally authorized representative, and will be conclusive for the purposes of determining whether Employee is Disabled. If Employee fails to submit to a medical examination within twenty (20) days after the Company's request, Employee will be deemed to have voluntarily terminated his employment without Good Reason under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6<u>Return of Materials; Confidential Information</u>. In connection with Employee's separation from employment for any reason, Employee shall return any and all property belonging to the Company, and all material of whatever type containing "Confidential Information" as defined in the Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement between Employee and EFRI, including, but not limited to, any and all documents, whether in paper or electronic form, which contain Confidential Information, any customer information, production information, manufacturing-related information, pricing information, files, memoranda, reports, pass codes/access cards, training or other reference manuals, Company vehicle, telephone, gas cards or other Company credit cards, keys, computers, laptops, including any computer disks, software, facsimile machines, memory devices, printers, telephones, pagers or the like.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.7<u>Delivery of Release</u>. Within ten (10) working days after termination of Employee's employment, and as a condition for receipt of payments set forth in Section 3.3(b)(i)(B), 3.3(b)(iii) and 4.1(a), the Company shall provide to Employee, or Employee's legal representative (if Employee is Disabled and has a legal representative) or Employee's estate (if Employee is deceased), a form of written release, which form shall be satisfactory to the Company and generally consistent with the form of release used by the Company prior to such termination of employment (the "**Release**") and which shall provide a full release of all claims against the Company and its corporate affiliates, except where Employee has been named as a defendant in a legal action arising out of the performance of Employee's responsibilities in which case the Release will exempt any claims which Employee or his legal representative or estate may have for indemnity by the Company with respect to any such legal action. As a condition to the obligation of the Company to make the payments provided for in such Sections. Employee, Employee's legal representative (if Employee is Disabled and has a legal representative), or Employee's estate (if Employee is deceased), shall execute and deliver the Release to the Company within the time periods provided for in said release.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)"**Good Reason**" means, without the written agreement of Employee, there is:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)a material reduction or diminution in the level of responsibility, or office of Employee, provided that before any claim of material reduction or diminution of responsibility may be relied upon by Employee, Employee must have provided written notice to EFI's Board of Directors of the alleged material reduction or diminution of responsibility and have given EFI at least thirty (30) calendar days within which to cure the alleged material reduction or diminution of responsibility;

**ARTICLE 5**

**CONFIDENTIALITY**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1<u>Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement</u>. Employee has already signed the Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement that was attached as Exhibit C to his August 2025 Employment Agreement with the Company. That Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement is incorporated into this Employment Agreement by reference. For the avoidance of doubt, Employee is not required to execute the Confidentiality and Non-Solicitation Agreement as a condition of any renewal of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or does limit the Company from requiring Employee to enter into agreements containing restrictive covenants, including confidential information, non-solicitation, and non-competition covenants, in the future.

**ARTICLE 6**

**RESTRICTIONS ON COMPETITION**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1<u>Restrictions are Reasonable and Necessary</u>. During Employee's employment with the Company, Employee will have access to, develop, and use the Company's trade secret information. As a result, Employee and the Company agree that the restrictions on competition set out in Sections 6.2, 6.3, and 6.4 are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company's legitimate interest in protecting its trade secrets from use (including inadvertent and unintentional use) and disclosure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2<u>Duty of Loyalty</u>. Employee agrees that, during the period of Employee's employment with the Company, Employee owes the Company a duty of loyalty which prohibits Employee from taking any step on behalf of Employee or any other person or entity to compete with the Company. Employee further agrees that Employee owes the Company a fiduciary duty of care, which prevents Employee from diverting business opportunities away from the Company

------

and from co-opting the Company's business opportunities for personal profit or in order to benefit an unrelated entity during Employee's employment with the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3<u>Covered Period</u>. In this Agreement the "**Covered Period**" is defined as the period beginning on the Effective Date of this Agreement and continuing until twenty-four months after the termination of Employee's termination of employment under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4<u>Non-Competition</u>. Employee and the Company agree that, in view of the very unique business circumstances of the Company, the following additional restrictions on Executive's ability to compete with the Company during the Covered Period are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company's legitimate interests in protecting its trade secrets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)*Agreement Not To Compete.* During the Covered Period, given the worldwide nature of each of the Company's businesses and of any Competitive Businesses, Employee will not, directly or indirectly, engage in any Competitive Activities anywhere within the world. The term "**Competitive Activities"** means (a) owning, managing, operating, joining, being a director of or otherwise controlling any Competitive Business, (b) participating in the ownership, management, operation or control of (other than as a holder of less than 5% of the shares of a public company) or Board of Directors of any Competitive Business, and (c) providing services comparable to those Employee performed hereunder, whether as an employee, independent contractor, consultant, volunteer, officer, director, member, manager, or creditor of any Competitive Business. For the purposes of this Agreement, a "**Competitive Business**" is any business in the uranium, rare earth from monazite or heavy minerals sand deposits or thorium- or radium-based targeted alpha therapy industries and any business that it intends to enter into the uranium, rare earths metals or alloy production and/or thorium- or radium-based targeted alpha therapy industries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5<u>Remedies for Breach of Restrictive Covenants</u>. Employee acknowledges that in connection with Employee's employment, he will receive or will become eligible to receive substantial benefits and compensation. Employee acknowledges that Employee's employment by the Company and all compensation and benefits from such employment and work will be conferred by the Company upon Employee only because and on the condition of Employee's willingness to commit Employee's best efforts and loyalty to the Company, including protecting the Company's Confidential Information and abiding by the restrictive covenants outlined in this Article 6. Employee agrees that his obligations set out in this Article 6 will not unduly restrict or curtail Employee's legitimate efforts to earn a livelihood following any termination of his employment with the Company. Employee agrees that the restrictions contained in this Article 6 are reasonable and necessary and all defenses to the strict enforcement of these restrictions by the Company are waived by Employee. Employee further acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions contained in this Article 6 would cause the Company irreparable harm which could not be adequately compensated in damages alone. Employee further acknowledges that it is essential to the effective enforcement of this Agreement that, in addition to any other remedies to which the Company may be entitled at law or in equity or otherwise, the Company will be entitled to seek and obtain, in a summary manner, from a court of competent jurisdiction, interim, interlocutory, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief, specific performance, and other equitable remedies, without bond or other security being required. In addition to any other remedies to which the Company may be entitled at law or in equity or otherwise, in the event of a breach of any of the covenants or other obligations contained in this Agreement, the Company will be entitled to an accounting and repayment of all profits, compensation, royalties, commissions, remuneration or benefits which Employee directly or indirectly has realized or may realize relating to, arising out of or in connection with any such breach. Should a court of competent jurisdiction declare any of the covenants set out in this Article 6 unenforceable, the court shall be empowered and directed to modify and reform such covenants so as to provide relief reasonably necessary to protect the

------

legitimate interests of the Company and to award injunctive relief, damages, or both to which the Company may be entitled. The remedies set out in this Agreement are in addition to other remedies that may be available at law and equity including, without limitation, remedies under the Universal Trade Secrets Act and the Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act.

**ARTICLE 7**

**RIGHTS TO WORK PRODUCT**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1<u>Definitions</u>. In this Agreement, the term "**Work Product**" means all things created or developed by Employee as a result of performing duties and tasks for the Company or in the course of Employee's employment by the Company. Work Product includes, but is not limited to, images, video recordings, drawings, concepts, ideas, creative work(s), mock-ups, models, specifications, plans, strategies, drafts, writings, reports, and other tangible materials.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2<u>Notification of Work Product</u>. Employee agrees to inform the Company promptly of the full details of any invention, business or product information, discovery, concept or idea that Employee conceives, completes, reduces to practice or otherwise creates (whether alone or with others) during the Covered Period, and that: (a) relates, at the time of conception or reduction to practice, to the Company's business or any of the Competitive Businesses; or (b) was developed in whole or in part on the Company time or with the use of the Company equipment, facilities, supplies, resources, materials, Confidential Information, or personnel; or (c) arises from or is suggested by any work Employee performs or was hired to perform for the Company (collectively, "**Developments**"). Developments include, but are not limited to, information regarding the use, operation, or development of any of the following: hardware and apparatus, instructions or procedures, research and development materials, copyrights, patents, trademarks, ideas, concepts, processes, techniques, know-how, manufacturing and/or assembly designs, devices, results of study, product development concepts and plans, trade secrets and methods, formulae, and computer programs, as well as any improvements and related knowledge. Developments shall be included in the definition of Confidential Information for purposes of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3<u>Work Made for Hire</u>. Each of Employee's Work Products shall be deemed a "**Work Made for Hire**." The Company shall own all right, title, and interest in and to Work Product and Developments, including any copyright and trademarks in the Development. Employee hereby assigns, transfers, and conveys to the Company all of Employee's rights, title and interest in such Work Product. Upon request of the Company, Employee shall execute such additional documents as the Company may reasonably request confirming the Company's ownership of copyrights, trademarks, and other rights or assigning said copyrights, trademarks, and other rights to the Company. Employee further agrees that if Company elects to file an application for patent protection on any Work Product or invention in which Employee is or was involved, Employee will execute all necessary documentation to effectuate the patent application, including formal assignments in favor of the Company. Employee will cooperate with attorneys and other persons designated by the Company and provide all cooperation reasonably required for the orderly prosecution of such patent application or to otherwise protect the Company's interest in the Work Product. The Company will pay all reasonable expenses incurred for the preparation and prosecution of patent applications. The Company is not obligated to make additional payment to Employee for any actions Employee takes under this Article 7.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4<u>Employee's Representations</u>. If, in the course of Employee's employment by the Company, Employee incorporates into the Work Product an invention or other idea or product to which Employee owns the rights, the Company (and its Successors) is hereby granted and shall have a non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license to make, have

------

made, modify, use, offer to sell, and sell such invention or other idea or product as part of or in connection with the Work Product.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5<u>Post-Employment Use of Work Product</u>. Both during Employee's employment under this Agreement and continuing perpetually after Employee's employment under this Agreement terminates, the Company shall have the right to modify, edit, revise, and alter the Work Product without the assistance or approval of Employee. Employee may not make modifications to the Work Product following the termination of this Agreement unless Employee first obtains written permission to do so from the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6<u>Prior Inventions</u>. Employee has already provided a list of discoveries, creative works, and inventions made by Employee while not employed by the Company and which, therefore, do not constitute Developments ("**Prior Inventions**"). This list of Prior Inventions was included as Exhibit D of Employee's August 2025 Employment Agreement with the Company and is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. Any dispute or controversy regarding whether an invention is a Prior Invention shall be construed against Employee, Employee having had the opportunity to list all prior inventions. To the extent that any Prior Invention is used by Employee in the course of Employee's employment under this Agreement, or is otherwise disclosed (other than solely through listing such Prior Inventions) or furnished to the Company, Employee shall be deemed to grant to the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, assignable, license to use, make, have made, reproduce, modify, improve, sell, and otherwise exploit such Prior Invention for any and all purposes.

**ARTICLE 8**

**GENERAL PROVISIONS**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1<u>Governing Law</u>. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado without regard to conflict of laws principles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2<u>Assignability</u>. This Agreement is personal to Employee and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by Employee other than that Employee may assign Employee's right to receive compensation under Article 2 and Article 3 after death by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee's legal representatives and heirs. This Agreement shall also inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3<u>Withholding</u>. The Company may withhold from any amounts payable under this Agreement any amounts required by law or agreement including, without limitation, amounts authorized by Employee, federal, state, and local taxes, garnishments, and child support payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.4<u>Entire Agreement; Amendment</u>. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between Employee and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as otherwise provided herein, supersedes any prior agreements or understandings, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof, including without limitation all employment, severance or change of control agreements previously entered into between Employee and the Company. Except as may be otherwise provided herein, this Agreement may not be amended or modified except by subsequent written agreement executed by both parties hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5<u>Section 409A</u>. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code (**"Section 409A"**) to the extent Section 409A is applicable to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall be

------

interpreted, operated and administered by the Company in a manner consistent with such intention and to avoid the pre-distribution inclusion in income of amounts deferred under this Agreement and the imposition of any additional tax or interest with respect thereto. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent that any payment under this Agreement constitutes "nonqualified deferred compensation" under Section 409A, the following shall apply to the extent Section 409A is applicable to such payment:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Any payable that is triggered upon the Employee's termination of employment shall be paid only if such termination of employment constitutes a "separation from service" under Section 409A; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)All expenses or other reimbursements paid pursuant to this Agreement that are taxable income to Employee shall be paid no later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which Employee incurs such expense. With regard to any provision herein that provides for reimbursement of costs and expenses or in-kind benefits, except as permitted by Section 409A, (a) the right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, (b) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits, provided during any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement, or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other taxable year; and (c) such payment shall be made on or before the last day of Employee's taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense occurred. For purposes of Section 409A, Employee's right to receive installment payments of any severance amount, if applicable, shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

In the event that Employee is deemed on the date of termination to be a "specified employee" as defined in Section 409A, then with regard to any payment or the provision of any benefit that is subject to Section 409A and is payable on account of a separation from service (as defined in Section 409A), such payment or benefit shall be delayed for until the earlier of (a) the first business day of the seventh (7<sup>th</sup>) calendar month following such termination of employment, or (b) Employee's death. Any payments delayed by reason of the prior sentence shall be paid in a single lump sum, without interest thereon, on the date indicated by the previous sentence and any remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6<u>Multiple Counterparts; Electronic Signatures</u>. This Agreement may be executed electronically or in pen-and-ink and in multiple counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.7<u>Notices</u>. Any notices provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed delivered upon deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid and marked for registered or certified mail, addressed to the Party to whom directed at the addresses set forth below or at such other addresses as may be substituted therefor by notice given hereunder. Notice given by any other means must be in writing and shall be deemed delivered only upon actual receipt.

The parties will then alternate striking from the list until there is one arbitrator remaining, who will be the selected arbitrator. Unless the parties otherwise agree and subject to the availability of the arbitrator, the arbitration will be heard within sixty (60) days following the appointment, and the decision of the arbitrator shall be binding on Employee and the Company and will not be subject to appeal.

## Exhibit 95.1

**Exhibit 95.1**

**Mine Safety Disclosure**

Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "**Dodd-Frank Act**"), issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States, and that is subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration under the Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 ("**Mine Safety Act**"), are required to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC information regarding specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities.

The following table sets out the information concerning mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by Section 1503(a) of the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act for the period January 1, 2026 through March 31, 2026 covered by this report:

1. The Company's Arizona 1 Project and the Energy Queen Property were on standby and not mined during the period. The Whirlwind mine, portions of the La Sal Project (i.e., the Beaver property and Pandora property) and the Pinyon Plain mine each operated during portions of the period.

3. A Section 104(b) withdrawal order is issued if, upon a follow up inspection, an MSHA inspector finds that a violation has not been abated within the period of time as originally fixed in the violation and determines that the period of time for the abatement should not be extended. Under a withdrawal order, all persons, other than those required to abate the violation and certain others, are required to be withdrawn from and prohibited from entering the affected area of the mine until the inspector determines that the violation has been abated.

4. A citation is issued under Section 104(d) where there is an S&S violation and the inspector finds the violation to be caused by an unwarrantable failure of the operator to comply with a mandatory health or safety standard. Unwarrantable failure is a special negligence finding that is made by an MSHA inspector and that focuses on the operator's conduct. If during the same inspection or any subsequent inspection of the mine within 90 days after issuance of the citation, the MSHA inspector finds another violation caused by an unwarrantable failure of the operator to comply, a withdrawal order is issued, under which all persons, other than those required to abate the violation and certain others, are required to be withdrawn from and prohibited from entering the affected area until the inspector determines that the violation has been abated.

5. A flagrant violation under Section 110(b)(2) is a violation that results from a reckless or repeated failure to make reasonable efforts to eliminate a known violation of a mandatory health or safety standard that substantially and proximately caused, or reasonable could have been expected to cause, death or serious bodily injury.

6. An imminent danger order under Section 107(a) is issued when an MSHA inspector finds that an imminent danger exists in a mine. An imminent danger is the existence of any condition or practice which could reasonably be expected to cause death or serious physical harm before such condition or practice can be abated. Under an imminent danger order, all persons, other than those required to abate the condition or practice and certain others, are required to be withdrawn from and are prohibited from

------

entering the affected area until the inspector determines that such imminent danger and the conditions or practices which caused the imminent danger no longer exist.

7. These dollar amounts include the total amount of all proposed assessments under MSHA relating to any type of violation during the period, including proposed assessments for non-S&S citations that are not specifically identified in this exhibit, regardless of whether the Company has challenged or appealed the assessment.

8. A Notice is given under Section 104(e) if an operator has a pattern of S&S violations. If upon any inspection of the mine within 90 days after issuance of the notice, or at any time after a withdrawal notice has been given under Section 104(e), an MSHA inspector finds another S&S violation, an order is issued, under which all persons, other than those required to abate the violation and certain others, are required to be withdrawn from and prohibited from entering the affected area until the inspector determines that the violation has been abated.

9. There were no legal actions pending before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission as of the last day of the period covered by this report. In addition, there were no pending actions that are (a) contests of citations and orders referenced in Subpart B of 29 CFR Part 2700; (b) complaints for compensation referenced in subpart D of 29 CFR Part 2700; (c) complaints of discharge, discrimination or interference referenced in Subpart E of 29 CFR Part 2700; (d) applications for temporary relief referenced in Subpart F of 29 CFR Part 2700; or (e) appeals of judges' decisions or orders to the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission referenced in Subpart H of 29 CFR Part 2700.
