NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Description of Business
Atlas Lithium Corporation (together with its subsidiaries “Atlas Lithium,” the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on December 15, 2011. The Company changed its management and business on December 18, 2012, to focus on mineral exploration in Brazil.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited interim financial information presented in the financial statements has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), consistent in all material respects with those applied in our 2024 Form 10-K, and are expressed in United States dollars. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our 2024 Form 10-K. For the period ended September 30, 2025 the condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company; (i) its 100% owned subsidiary Atlas Lithium Limited and its subsidiary Atlas Litio Brasil Ltda (“Atlas Brazil”); (ii) its 100% owned subsidiary Athena Mineral Resources Corporation and its subsidiary Athena Litio Ltda; (iii) its 100% owned subsidiary Brazil Mineral Resources Corporation and its subsidiary Atlas Recursos Minerais; (iv) its 28.15% equity interest in Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation (“Atlas Critical Minerals”) and its subsidiaries Mineração Apollo Ltda., Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. (“MDB”), RST Recursos Minerais Ltda. (“RST”) and Mineração Jupiter Ltda. We have concluded that Atlas Critical Minerals and its subsidiaries are variable interest entities (“VIE”) in accordance with applicable accounting standards and guidance. As such, the accounts and results of Atlas Critical Minerals and their subsidiaries have been included in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Business Segment
The Company has one reportable segment: mining. The mining segment is composed of several mining projects, being all of them located in Brazil. Currently the Company has projects in development phase, with special focus on our project in the vicinity of Araçuaí, Minas Gerais, Brazil (the “Neves Project”). No revenues were generated in the three months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, revenues were exclusively generated by the Company’s Quartzite project. The other mining projects are in exploration phase.
The accounting policies of the mining segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
The chief operating decision maker (CODM) of the mining segment is the Company’s chief executive officer. The CODM regularly reviews the revenue, significant expenses categories – including exploration and evaluation costs and capitalized expenses – and general and administrative expenses. The significant expenses (including capitalized expenses) on which the CODM relies are those that are reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Total segment assets as of September 30, 2025, were $72,169,028, primarily consisting of cash and cash equivalents, mineral rights, capitalized exploration and evaluation costs and equipment acquisitions for the Neves Project.
All of the long-lived assets are located in Brazil and no revenues were generated in the three months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, revenues were exclusively generated by the Company’s Quartzite project. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025, the Company had four customers accounting for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue each (such customers collectively represented 95% of the Company’s revenue).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements other than those described in our 2024 Form 10-K that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 2 – COMPOSITION OF CERTAIN FINANCIAL STATEMENT ITEMS
Inventories
Inventories as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, are comprised of the following:
SCHEDULE OF INVENTORIES
Materials and supplies consist primarily of feedstock intended for use in the Company’s production processes related to lithium operations.
As of September 30, 2025, Quartzite inventories only contain slabs produced through the cutting and polishing of natural quartzite. Slabs are actively sold in the market and classified as finished goods.
Property and Equipment
The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s property and equipment as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
SCHEDULE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Exploration costs such as drilling, development and related costs are either classified as exploration and charged to operations as incurred, or capitalized, such as to assist with mine planning within a reserve area. Whether to capitalize an exploration cost or incur an expense also depends on whether the drilling or development costs relate to an ore body that has been determined to be commercially mineable and whether the expenditure relates to a probable future benefit to be generated singly or in combination with other assets. The basis of the mineral interest is amortized on a units-of-production basis.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of the cost of software (implementation of SAP enterprise resource planning software, as well as other software). The carrying value of these intangible assets as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $331,887 and $399,773, respectively.

NOTE 2 – COMPOSITION OF CERTAIN FINANCIAL STATEMENT ITEMS (CONTINUED)
Leases
Finance Leases
For the reporting period ended September 30, 2025, no financial leases meeting the criteria outlined in ASC 842 have been identified.
Operating Leases
Right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. When the rate implicit to the lease cannot be readily determined, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the future lease payments. The ROU asset includes any lease payments made and lease incentives received prior to the commencement date. Operating lease ROU assets also include any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent when the lease payments are uneven throughout the lease term. The ROU assets and lease liabilities may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. The ROU assets and lease liabilities are primarily related to the Company’s offices in Belo Horizonte and Araçuaí and Geology sheds leased from third parties.
The lease agreements have terms between two2 tofive years and the liability was measured at the present value of the lease payments discounted using interest rates with a rate of 6.5%, which was determined to be the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The continuity of the lease liabilities is presented in the table below:
SCHEDULE OF OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY
The maturity of the lease liabilities (contractual undiscounted cash flows) is presented in the table below:
SCHEDULE OF CONTRACTUAL UNDISCOUNTED CASH FLOWS
Convertible Debt
SCHEDULE OF CONVERTIBLE DEBT
On November 7, 2023, the Company entered into a convertible note purchase agreement (the “Convertible Note Purchase Agreement”) with an entity controlled by Mr. Martin Rowley, and other investors to raise up to $20,000,000 in proceeds through the issuance of convertible promissory notes with the following key terms:
On November 7, 2023, we issued $10,000,000 in convertible promissory notes under the terms of Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, and there were no other purchases and sales of the convertible promissory notes pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement. On the date of issuance, we received $10,000,000 in cash proceeds and recorded (i) a $9,688,305 convertible debt liability and (ii) a $311,695 conversion feature derivative liability in our consolidated statement of financial position, as further disclosed below.
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded $163,836 and $486,166 in interest expense and $26,188 and $77,710in accretion expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss ($163,836 and $487,946, in interest expenses and $26,188 and $77,995 in accretion expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024).
Derivative Liabilities
SCHEDULE OF DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
a) Derivative liability – embedded conversion feature on convertible debt
On November 7, 2023, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to certain investors. In accordance with FASB ASC 815, the conversion feature of the convertible debt was determined to be an embedded derivative. As such, it was bifurcated from the host debt liability and was recognized as a derivative liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
At December 31, 2024, the fair value of the embedded conversion feature was determined to be $66,310 using a Black-Scholes collar option pricing model with the following assumptions:
SCHEDULE OF FAIR VALUE EMBEDDED CONVERSION PRICING MODEL ASSUMPTION
At September 30, 2025, the fair value of the embedded conversion feature was determined to be $10,383 using a Black-Scholes collar option pricing model with the following assumptions:
In the Black-Scholes collar option pricing models, the expected volatilities were based on historical volatilities of the securities of the Company and its trading peers, and the risk-free interest rates were determined based on the prevailing rates at the grant date for U.S. Treasury Bonds with a term equal to the expected term of the instrument being valued.
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized a $3,313 loss and a $55,927 gain on changes in fair value of financial instruments in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss ($84,934 and $396,651 gain in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024).
b) Derivative liability – other stock incentives
The employment agreement of Igor Tkachenko, a Vice President of the Company, dated September 30, 2023, provides for the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock based on us achieving certain market capitalization milestones. As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s obligations under this employment agreement contemplates the issuance of additional shares of the Company’s common stock in five tranches, each representing 0.2% of the Company’s common stock outstanding at the time of vesting, with an expiry date of December 31, 2026 and market vesting conditions as follows:
In accordance with FASB ASC 815, these RSU awards were classified as a liability, measured at fair value through profit or loss, and compensation expense is recognized over the expected term.
As at December 31, 2024, Tranche 3, Tranche 4, Tranche 5, Tranche 6 and Tranche 7 remain outstanding and unvested, and the total fair value of these outstanding rights to receive restricted stock was $315,189, as measured using a Monte Carlo Simulation with the following ranges of assumptions: the Company’s stock price on the December 31, 2024 measurement date, expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility between 71.2% and 82.3%, risk-free interest rate between a range of 5.09% to 5.48%, and an expected term of 2.5 years. The expected volatilities were based on historical volatilities of the securities of the Company and its trading peers, and the risk-free interest rates were determined based on the prevailing rates at the grant date for U.S. Treasury Bonds with a term equal to the expected term of the award being valued.
As at September 30, 2025, Tranche 3, Tranche 4, Tranche 5, Tranche 6 and Tranche 7 remain outstanding and unvested, and the total fair value of these outstanding rights to receive restricted stock was $36,077, as measured using a Monte Carlo Simulation with the following ranges of assumptions: the Company’s stock price on the September 30, 2025 measurement date, expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility between 73.69% and 85.22%, risk-free interest rate between a range of 3.66%, and 4.75%, and expected term of 15 months. The expected volatilities were based on historical volatilities of the securities of the Company and its trading peers, and the risk-free interest rates were determined based on the prevailing rates at the grant date for U.S. Treasury Bonds with a term equal to the expected term of the award being valued.
c) Derivative asset - Non-Deliverable Forward
Atlas Brazil, a subsidiary of Atlas Lithium, is exposed to foreign-currency exchange-rate fluctuations in the normal course of business because a portion of its expenses are paid in Brazilian reais (BRL). To mitigate this exposure, Atlas Brazil utilizes non-deliverable forward foreign-exchange contracts (“NDFs”), which are designed to offset changes in cash flow attributable to currency exchange movements.
The Company applies hedge accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP (ASC 815). As a result, these derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, with the entire gain or loss on the derivative initially recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). These amounts remain deferred in OCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the same income statement line item as the hedged item when it affects earnings.
Atlas Lithium actively monitors the derivative portfolio of its subsidiary monthly to assess financial results and cash flow implications. These contracts are used strictly for risk management purposes, and neither Atlas Brazil nor Atlas Lithium engage in speculative foreign-exchange transactions. Additionally, these contracts do not contain any credit-risk-related contingent features.
As of September 30, 2025, the fair value of outstanding NDF contracts was recorded as Derivative assets on the balance sheet.
The following table summarizes the non-deliverable forward foreign exchange contracts that remain open as of September 30, 2025:

NOTE 3 – DEFERRED OTHER INCOME
On May 2, 2023, the Company and Atlas Brazil entered into a Royalty Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lithium Royalty Corp., a Canadian company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“LRC”). The transaction contemplated under the Purchase Agreement closed simultaneously on May 2, 2023, whereby Atlas Brazil sold to LRC in consideration for $20,000,000 in cash, a royalty interest equaling 3% of the gross revenue (the “Royalty”) to be received by Atlas Brazil from the sale of products from 19 mineral rights and properties that are located in Brazil and held by Atlas Brazil. Deferred income recognized will be charged to profit and loss on a units-of-sale basis in accordance with the sales of the spodumene produced in mineral rights objective of the Purchase Agreement.
NOTE 4 – OTHER NONCURRENT LIABILITIES
Other noncurrent liabilities are comprised of tax refinancing programs at our operating subsidiaries located in Brazil and provision for contingencies. The balance of these non-current liabilities as of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, amounted to $30,048 and $33,962, respectively.

SCHEDULE OF RELATED PARTIES
Technical Services Agreement
In July 2023, we entered into a technical service agreement (the “Technical Services Agreement”) with RTEK pursuant to which RTEK agreed to provide us certain mining engineering, planning and business development services. Messrs. Nicholas Rowley and Brian Talbot are the founders and principals of RTEK. The Technical Services Agreement was amended and restated on March 31, 2024 to modify the compensation terms thereunder, and again amended and restated on August 16, 2024 (as further amended and restated, the “Second A&R RTEK Agreement”) in order to, among other things, revise certain budget and service terms and issue additional RSUs to RTEK, subject to achievement of certain milestones and performance criteria.
On March 12, 2025, RTEK delivered a letter to the Company purporting to terminate the Second A&R RTEK Agreement due to the Company’s alleged repudiation of its obligations thereunder. The Company firmly disagrees with such allegation and at that time regarded the agreement as in effect.
On March 20, 2025, the Company notified RTEK that it was terminating the agreement due to RTEK’s failure and inability to perform several of the services required under the agreement and several breaches to the other terms of the Second A&R RTEK Agreement.
The Company does not believe that it will incur any early termination penalties as a result of its termination of the Second A&R RTEK Agreement.

Atlas Critical Minerals issued 515,416 restricted stock units of Atlas Critical Minerals to officers and directors of the Company at a weighted average price of $ 0.83 per share in settlement of $427,832 in salaries and fees owed to such officers and directors due to their services provided to Atlas Critical Minerals.
NOTE 8 – RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Currency Risk
The Company operates primarily in Brazil which exposes it to currency risks. The Company’s business activities may generate intercompany receivables or payables that are in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company. Changes in exchange rates from the time the activity occurs to the time payments are made may result in the Company receiving either more or less in local currency than the local currency equivalent at the time of the original activity.
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates between the applicable foreign currency and the U.S. dollar affect the translation of each foreign subsidiary’s financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries translate their financial results from the local currency into U.S. dollars in the following manner: (a) income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period; (b) balance sheet asset and liability accounts are translated at end of period exchange rates; and (c) equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Translation in this manner affects the shareholders’ equity account referred to as the foreign currency translation adjustment account. This account exists only in the foreign subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar balance sheets and is necessary to keep the foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets in agreement.
NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with FASB ASC 855-10 Subsequent Events, we have analyzed our operations subsequent to September 30, 2025 to the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, and we have determined that there are no material subsequent events to disclose in these condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 Form 10-K”).
This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1.A. of Part II of this Report that could cause actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Additionally, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future.
Overview
Atlas Lithium Corporation (“Atlas Lithium”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our” refer to Atlas Lithium Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries) is a mineral exploration and development company with lithium projects and multiple lithium exploration properties. In addition, we own exploration properties in other battery minerals, including nickel, copper, rare earths, graphite, and titanium. Our current focus is the development from exploration to active mining of our hard-rock lithium project located in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil at a well-known pegmatitic district in Brazil, which has been denominated by the government of Minas Gerais as “Lithium Valley.” We intend to mine and then process our lithium-containing ore to produce lithium concentrate (also known as spodumene concentrate), a key ingredient for the battery supply chain.
We own 53,942 hectares (539 km2) for lithium in 95 mineral rights (2 in pre-mining concession stage, 85 in exploration stage, and 8 in pre-exploration stage). We believe that we hold the largest portfolio of exploration properties for lithium in Brazil among publicly listed companies.
In addition to our lithium exploration activities, as of September 30, 2025, we also own approximately 28.15% of the shares of common stock of Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation (formerly known as Jupiter Gold Corporation), which trades on the OTC QB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol JUPGF. Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation (“Atlas Critical Minerals”) is an exploration stage company focused on the exploration and development of mineral rights relating to certain critical minerals such as rare earths, copper, graphite, nickel, iron, gold and quartzite. The results of operations of Atlas Critical Minerals are consolidated in our financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”).
Operational Update
Neves Lithium Project
The Neves Project main mineral right received “Portaria de Lavra” (mining concession) status from Brazil’s Ministry of Mines and Energy on May 27, 2025, representing the highest level of mineral titleship in Brazil and authorizing continuous mining operations.
On August 4, 2025, the Company announced the completion of a Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”) for the Company’s 100%-owned Neves Project by SGS Canada Inc. (“SGS”), prepared under the supervision of Marc-Antoine Laporte, a qualified person as defined in Item 1300 of Regulation S-K.
Following publication of its DFS, the Company is focusing on a careful process of soliciting and analyzing competitive proposals from potential third party vendors for all items anticipated to be required to develop the Neves Project through commissioning and production, including but not limited to, plant assembly, construction of facilities and internal roads, pre-stripping and open pit mining. The Company’s team is evaluating candidate suppliers based on both cost and quality parameters, with the aim of potentially reducing capital expenditures for the Neves Project from the $57.6 million estimated in the Company’s DFS. The Company’s dense media separation plant is fully paid and is in Brazil awaiting assembly. The Company has invested approximately $30 million in acquiring and transporting the newly fabricated dense media separation plant to Brazil. The DFS supports the technical robustness of utilizing proven DMS processing technology, with comprehensive metallurgical testing demonstrating an expected lithium recovery rate of 61.7%.
On August 14, 2025, the Minas Gerais state agency responsible for permitting applications issued an extensive technical report recommending approval of the Company’s expansion permit application (“Expansion Application”) filed in November 2024. On August 28, 2025, a civil action related to the Company’s Expansion Application was filed by N’Golo (“NGO”), a non-governmental organization known for filing claims against mining projects, having filed 29 such claims in the last six years. The action was filed in the federal court located in Teofilo Otoni, Brazil (the “Court”), alleging that the Company did not conduct a consultation with Girau, a traditional community (the “Community”). The Company believes the NGO’s action is without any merit. In an affidavit dated September 3, 2025, the Community repudiated the NGO claim with the President of the Community association and a large number of its members stating that: i) the NGO had never visited the Community and does not represent the wishes of the Community; and ii) the Company had fully consulted with the Community. Prior to the Expansion Application, the Company had retained a team of six experts including an anthropologist and a social scientist to consult with the Community. On May 9, 2024, the State of Minas Gerais, through one of its departments, issued a report stating that the Company had satisfied the consultation with the Community. On October 1, 2025, in a Court filing, the Brazilian federal government, through one of its agencies, reaffirmed that the State of Minas Gerais has the appropriate authority and autonomy on matters related to the Company’s consultation. Based on currently available information, the Company does not expect this proceeding to prevent the issuance of the expansion permit or to cause material delay to the development of the Neves Project. The critical path for the development of the Neves Project consists of planning and procurement activities, including the solicitation of third-party proposals as described above, which are continuing uninterrupted.
During the third quarter of 2025, the Company increased its cash reserves to $21.0 million which provides great flexibility during the current period of softer lithium prices.
Salinas Project Exploration Progress
On August 18, 2025, the Company reported exploration results from its 100%-owned Salinas Project located in Brazil’s Lithium Valley. Initial exploratory drilling confirmed spodumene-rich lithium mineralization near the surface at approximately 23 meters depth. The Salinas Project encompasses 388 hectares located approximately 5 miles east of the Colina Project, owned by Pilbara Minerals after it acquired Latin Resources for approximately $370 million in August 2024. The Company’s Salinas Project is located approximately 100 kilometers north of the Neves Project.
Recent Developments
On December 19, 2024, the Company entered into an Option Agreement with Atlas Critical Minerals pursuant to which the Company granted Atlas Critical Minerals an exclusive option to acquire 100% of the equity interests of Brazil Mineral Resources Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for total consideration of (i) $8.0 million payable, at the Company’s discretion, in the form in cash, shares of Atlas Critical Minerals common stock at a valuation of $0.6266 per share, or a combination thereof; and (ii) a perpetual 1.5% royalty on gross revenues from specified mineral tenements to be documented at the time exercise of such option (the “Option”). The Option is exercisable no earlier than the filing by Atlas Critical Minerals of a Form F-1 registration statement with the SEC in connection with the uplisting of Atlas Critical Minerals’ common stock to the Nasdaq Capital Market and for a period of 12 months thereafter. Atlas Critical Minerals filed a registration statement on Form F-1 with the SEC on September 15, 2025, and, accordingly, the Option is currently exercisable for the duration of the option term, subject to the execution of a definitive purchase agreement and satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions.
Results of Operations
The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025, Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 totaled $24.5 million, compared to net loss of $32.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is mainly due to:
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $21.0 million and working capital of $17.1 million.
Net cash used in operating activities totaled $ 15.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $14.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing a decrease of $1.2 million or 8%. This decrease was primarily driven by a $4.0 million net increase in general and administrative expenses, especially in: (A) (i) payroll expenses due to the team expansion following the Neves Project progress and (ii) higher expenditures related to marketing and investor relations; partially offset by (B) (i) a reduction in third-party services contracted and (ii) the commencement of the capitalization of $3.2 million in exploration expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $7.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net cash used of $23.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing a decrease in cash used of $15.7 million or 67%. The decrease primarily reflects:
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $28.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $30.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, representing a decrease in cash provided of $1.6 million or 5%. The decrease is due to the following financing activities that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025:
We have historically incurred net operating losses and have not yet generated material revenues from the sale of products or services. As a result, our primary sources of liquidity have been derived through proceeds from the sales of our equity and the equity of one of our subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $21.0 million and working capital of $17.2 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents $15.5 million and working capital of $10.6 million as of December 31, 2024. We believe our cash and equivalents will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for a period of at least twelve months from the date of these financial statements. However, our future short- and long-term capital requirements will depend on several factors, including but not limited to, the rate of our growth, our ability to identify areas for mineral exploration and the economic potential of such areas, the exploration and other drilling campaigns needed to verify and expand our mineral resources, the successful installation of our lithium processing facilities, and our ability to attract talent. To the extent that our current resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to scale back our existing operations and growth plans, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial prospects and could raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We operate primarily in Brazil, which exposes us to currency risks. Our business activities may generate intercompany receivables or payables that are in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity. Changes in exchange rates from the time the activity occurs to the time payments are made may result in it receiving either more or less in local currency than the local currency equivalent at the time of the original activity.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates between the applicable foreign currency and the U.S. dollar affect the translation of each foreign subsidiary’s financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Our foreign subsidiaries translate their financial results from the local currency into U.S. dollars in the following manner: (a) income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period; (b) balance sheet asset and liability accounts are translated at end of period exchange rates; and (c) equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Translation in this manner affects the shareholders’ equity account referred to as the foreign currency translation adjustment account. This account exists only in the foreign subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar balance sheets and is necessary to keep the foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets in agreement.
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 the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of American (“U.S. GAAP”). There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in our 2024 Form 10-K.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The information to be reported under this Item is not required of smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the design, operation, and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that materially affected, or would be reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations of the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgement in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of business, we may periodically become subject to legal proceedings and claims arising in connection with ongoing business activities from time to time. The results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, and unfavorable resolutions are possible and could materially affect our results of operations, cash flows or financial position. In addition, regardless of the outcome, litigation could have an adverse impact on us because of defense costs, diversion of management attention and resources and other factors.
Based on information readily available, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there are no pending legal proceedings that, in the opinion of management, are likely to result in a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the information in this Quarterly Report, including our financial statements and the related notes thereto and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as any additional risk factors that may be described in our other filings with the SEC from time to time, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2025, before deciding whether to invest in our securities. The occurrence of any of the risks, the events or developments described below could harm our business, financial condition, operating results, and growth prospects. In such an event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. You should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties included in this Quarterly Report and elsewhere in our Annual Report and other SEC filings before you decide to invest in our common stock.
We are required to obtain governmental permits in order to conduct development and mining operations, a process which is often costly and time-consuming, and subject to interference by third parties
We are required to obtain and renew governmental permits for our exploration activities and, prior to developing or mining any mineralization that we discover, we will be required to obtain new governmental permits. Obtaining and renewing governmental permits is a complex, costly and time-consuming process. The timeliness and success of permitting efforts are contingent upon many variables not within our control, including the interpretation of permit approval requirements administered by the applicable permitting authority. We may not be able to obtain or renew permits that are necessary for our planned operations or the cost and time required to obtain or renew such permits may exceed our expectations. Any unexpected delays or costs associated with the permitting process could delay the exploration, development or operation of our properties, which in turn could materially adversely affect our future revenues and profitability. In addition, key permits and approvals may be revoked or suspended or may be changed in a manner that adversely affects our activities.
Private parties, such as social or environmental activists, frequently attempt to intervene in the permitting process and to persuade regulators to deny necessary permits or seek to overturn permits that have been issued. For example, on August 28, 2025, N’Golo (“NGO”), a non-governmental organization known for numerous claims against mining projects, having filed 29 such claims in the last six years, filed a civil action in the federal court located in Teofilo Otoni, Brazil, claiming that the Company did not sufficiently consult with Girau, a traditional community, in connection with our Neves Project. While the leadership of the Girau community has repudiated the claims of NGO and we do not expect this action to materially delay our development of the Neves Project, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successful defend against and overcome all third-party objections to the permitting of our business activities.
Obtaining the necessary governmental permits involves numerous jurisdictions, public hearings and possibly costly undertakings. These third-party actions can materially increase the costs and cause delays in the permitting process and could cause us to not proceed with the development or operation of a property. In addition, our ability to successfully obtain key permits and approvals to explore for, develop, operate and expand operations will likely depend on our ability to undertake such activities in a manner consistent with the creation of social and economic benefits in the surrounding communities, which may or may not be required by law. Our ability to obtain permits and approvals and to successfully operate in particular communities may be adversely affected by real or perceived detrimental events associated with our activities.
