2. LIQUIDITY

At June 30, 2017, the Company had working capital of $8.4 million, which is expected to provide it with the necessary liquidity through March 31, 2018. At December 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4.3 million. The increase in working capital of $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to the following:

the completion of two equity offerings in January 2017 and February 2017 for net proceeds of $8.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively;
the completion of the sale of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Hydro Resources Inc. (“HRI”) to Laramide Resources Ltd. (“Laramide”) on January 5, 2017. Upon completion, the Company received $2.2 million in cash, a $5.0 million promissory note, of which $1.5 million is due within 12 months, 2,218,333 shares of Laramide Resources Ltd.’s common stock which had a fair value of $0.6 million at June 30, 2017 and 2,218,333 common stock purchase warrants which had a fair value of $0.3 million at June 30, 2017. Details regarding this transaction are discussed in Note 3, below; and
the repayment of the remaining $5.5 million outstanding under the RCF Loan (defined in Note 7, below.)

Also during the six months ending June 30, 2017, the Company entered into a Controlled Equity Offering Sales Agreement on April 14, 2017, with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. acting as sales agent, pursuant to which the Company has registered the offer and sale from time to time of shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $30.0 million (the “ATM Offering”,) of which approximately $29.2 is available for future sales as of August 11, 2017. The Company believes that the ATM Offering, along with its existing working capital balance, will provide it with the necessary liquidity to fund operations through 2018. The Company will also continue to explore additional opportunities to raise capital, further monetize its non-core assets and identify ways to reduce its cash expenditures.

While the Company has been successful in the past raising funds through equity and debt financings as well as through the sale of non-core assets, no assurance can be given that additional financing will be available to it in amounts sufficient to meet the Company’s needs or on terms acceptable to the Company. In the event that funds are not available, the Company may be required to materially change its business plans.
