Risks

  • The completed public offering increases the companyquity on the market and could result in dilution for existing shareholders; this impacts capital markets and materials-sector investors.
  • The Ohio metallization facility has an expected start window of early to mid-2027 and an approximate cost of $40 million, creating execution and timeline risk for the rare earths operations.
