Summary

VAC acquisition amendment and supplemental transaction disclosure. The parties amended the merger agreement to clarify provisions concerning e-VAC’s customer supply-contract dispute, a potential settlement, repayment of debt and related purchase-price adjustments. The customer had purported to terminate the contract; e-VAC initiated arbitration, and VAC’s U.S. lenders later agreed to forbear from remedies for specified defaults. The VAC acquisition remains subject to closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to close within 12 months.

Key Figures

• H1 revenue growth was driven mainly by the new U.S. magnet facility, which contributed €38.1M, and higher sales from existing permanent-magnet operations. H1 operating cash flow included €81.5M of net proceeds from the §48C tax-credit sale.
• VAC consideration is estimated at $1.786B, including $718M cash, 65.853M Energy Fuels common shares valued at $747.4M using a $11.35 share price, up to $135M in preferred shares, and $185.9M of debt repayment tied to a change-in-control provision. The preferred shares may be issued to replace shares limited by the applicable issuance cap or to provide a value top-up if the specified pre-closing share-price test is met.
• The $718M cash consideration includes $300M paid directly to a U.S. lender and $39M placed in escrow. Energy Fuels expects a $250M-principal senior secured term loan to help finance VAC debt repayment, at an assumed SOFR of 3.67% plus a 2.5% margin.
• e-VAC’s customer dispute arose in April 2026; the customer gave notice of termination on 7/1/2026, and e-VAC began arbitration on 7/7/2026 seeking a ruling that termination was wrongful and recovery of amounts due over the remaining contract term. VAC recorded a €7.68M customer-specific expected credit loss allowance in H1.
• As of 6/30/2026, VAC had €69.5M of available liquidity: €43.7M cash and €25.8M of undrawn credit facilities. Its U.S. lenders’ 9/24/2026 forbearance agreement does not extend maturity or change the $300M term-loan principal.
