Post# of 388
Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), a leading U.S. producer of uranium and rare earth elements (“REE”), today announced its entry into a definitive agreement to sell three wholly owned subsidiaries that together hold its Alta Mesa ISR Project to enCore Energy for total consideration of $120 million (the “transaction”). The transaction, which is expected to close by the end of 2022 or early 2023, is significant for the company, as the cash received is expected to fully finance much of Energy Fuels’ uranium, REE, vanadium and medical isotope business plans for the next two to three years without diluting shareholders. “This is a unique transaction for Energy Fuels. Not only does it allow us to monetize the Alta Mesa Project for $120 million, it allows our company to focus and accelerate our higher priority uranium and rare earth projects without dilution to our shareholders,” said Mark S. Chalmers, president and CEO of Energy Fuels. “This non-dilutive transaction will add cash to Energy Fuels’ significant working capital position, which was $122 million at September 30, 2022. Energy Fuels will also retain some exposure to short-term market upside and optionality at Alta Mesa and enCore through the convertible note.”
