3. GOING CONCERN

 

The Company incurred a loss of $2,071 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 (2023 - $3,213) and had a working capital deficit of $6,928 and an accumulated deficit of $163,983 as of September 30, 2024. As a development stage issuer, the Company has not yet commenced its mining operations and accordingly does not generate any revenue. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $150, which will not be sufficient to

 

fund normal operations or the repayment of the April 2024 Notes (as further discussed in Note 5b) for the next twelve months. These conditions and events raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In response to these conditions and events, the Company plans to obtain additional financing. As disclosed in Note 12, in November 2024 the Company closed an underwritten public offering (the “November 2024 Registered Offering”) and a non-brokered private placement (the “November 2024 Private Offering”, and together with the November 2024 Registered Offering, the “November Offerings”) which resulted in the receipt of net proceeds of $6,000, after giving effect to certain fees but before estimated underwriting discounts and offering expenses. In addition, NioCorp expects to have access to up to $58,577 in net proceeds from the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement, dated January 26, 2023 (the “Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement”), between the Company and YA II PN, Ltd., an investment fund managed by Yorkville Advisors Global, LP (“Yorkville”), through April 1, 2026. The Company may pursue additional sources of financing, and while it has been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurance it will be able to do so in the future. Other than the funds received from the November Offerings, and the potential issuance of Common Shares under the Yorkville Equity Facility Financing Agreement, the Company did not have any further funding commitments or arrangements for additional financing as of September 30, 2024. The Company’s plans to obtain additional financing have not been finalized, are subject to market conditions, and are not within the Company’s control and therefore cannot be deemed probable. Further, the Company will be required to raise additional funds for the construction and commencement of operations. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
