LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN |
LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN | 2. LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN The Interim Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared on a “going concern” basis, which means that the continuation of the Company is presumed even though events and conditions exist that, when considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern because it is possible that the Company will be required to adversely change its current business plan or may be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that these Interim Financial Statements were issued. The Company last recorded revenue from operations in 2009, and as such, Westwater is subject to all the risks associated with a development stage company. Management considered the following events and conditions in its going concern analysis. As of June 30, 2025, current liabilities exceeded current assets. Further, the Company last recorded revenues from operations in 2009. The Company expects to continue to incur cash losses as a result of construction activity at the Kellyton Graphite Plant and general and administrative expenses until operations commence at the Kellyton Graphite Plant. If financing is not available to fund the construction of Phase I of the Kellyton Graphite Plant through the equity and debt capital markets or alternative financing sources, the Company may be required to reduce or severely curtail operations, change its planned business development strategies related to the Coosa Graphite Deposit and Phase I of the Kellyton Graphite Plant, alter the construction and commissioning timeline of Phase I of the Kellyton Graphite Plant, put the construction of Phase I of the Kellyton Graphite Plant on hold until additional funding is obtained, or seek strategic alternatives. If the Company is required to abandon construction and development or alter its intended long-term plans related to the Kellyton Graphite Plant, the Company could be required to evaluate the recoverability of its long-lived assets. Since 2009, the Company has relied on equity financings, debt financings and asset sales to fund its operations. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and through the date that these Interim Financial Statements were issued, the Company continued construction activities related to the Kellyton Graphite Plant. However, those certain construction activities have been significantly reduced from anticipated levels until the additional funding needed to complete Phase I of the Kellyton Graphite Plant is in place. The Company’s construction-related contracts include termination provisions at the Company’s election that do not obligate the Company to make payments beyond what is incurred by the third-party service provider through the date of such termination. In its going concern analysis, the Company considered construction activity and related costs through the date that the Interim Financial Statements were issued. Based on this analysis and excluding potential external funding opportunities and the Company’s current equity facility, the Company’s planned non-discretionary expenditures for one year past the issue date of these Interim Financial Statements exceed the cash on hand as of the date of these Interim Financial Statements. On June 30, 2025, the Company’s cash balance was approximately $6.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold 7.1 million shares of Common Stock for net proceeds of $4.4 million pursuant to the ATM Sales Agreement with H.C. Wainwright, and sold 5.1 million shares of Common Stock for net proceeds of $3.2 million pursuant to the 2024 Lincoln Park PA. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has approximately $47.3 million remaining available for future sales under the ATM Sales Agreement and approximately $26.3 million remaining available for future sales under the 2024 Lincoln Park PA, subject to certain limitations contained with the Series A-1 Convertible Notes. See Note 9 Common Stock for further details regarding the Company’s equity financing agreements. On June 13, 2025, the Company entered into the June Securities Purchase Agreement with certain institutional investors (the “Investors”) under which the Company agreed to issue and sell in a registered public offering directly to the Investors, Series A-1 Convertible Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million at a redemption value of 115% of the outstanding principal amount, which will be convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock. See Note 6 Series A-1 Convertible Notes for further details regarding the Company’s Convertible Notes agreement. While the Company has advanced its business plan and has been successful in the past raising funds through equity financings as well as through the sale of non-core assets, no assurance can be given that additional financing will be available in amounts sufficient to meet its needs, or on terms acceptable to the Company. Recent volatility in the equity and debt capital markets, higher interest rates, inflation, electric vehicle production and adoption rates, generally uncertain economic conditions and regulatory policy and enforcement, and unstable geopolitical conditions, including tariffs, could significantly impact the Company’s ability to access the necessary funding to advance its business plan. The Company’s ability to raise additional funds under the ATM Sales Agreement may be limited by the Company’s market capitalization, share price and trading volume. When considering the above events and conditions in the aggregate, the Company believes such events and conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these Interim Financial Statements were issued.
