When we use the terms “Ur-Energy,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” or the “Company” we are referring to Ur-Energy Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires. Throughout this document we make statements that are classified as “forward-looking.” Please refer to the “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” section below for an explanation of these types of assertions.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information 

 

This report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of applicable United States (“U.S.”) and Canadian securities laws, and these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "may," "potential," "intends," "plans" and other similar expressions or statements that an action, event or result "may," "could" or "should" be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative thereof or other similar statements. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to: (i) the ability to maintain safe and compliant operations at Lost Creek; (ii) the continued schedule for ramp-up at Lost Creek, including the schedule for bringing additional header houses online; (iii) our ability to reach steady state higher production levels at Lost Creek in a timely and cost-effective manner including timely delivery into our contracts; (iv) development and construction priorities and timelines for Shirley Basin, and whether our current projections for buildout can to be achieved with respect to budget and timelines; (v) the ability to complete additional favorable uranium sales agreements; (vi) the timing and outcome of final regulatory approvals of the amendments for uranium recovery at the LC East Project; (vii) continuing effects of supply-chain disruption, and challenges in the labor market, and whether the Company will continue to anticipate and overcome such challenges; (viii) the effects of the current evolving uranium market, including supply and demand, and whether higher spot and term pricing will be sustained; (ix) the impacts of global geopolitical events on the nuclear fuel industry and specifically U.S. uranium producers; (x) what impacts the ban on Russian uranium will have on the uranium market and on what timeline; and (xi) whether we will be able to expand our production portfolio business with organic or inorganic growth. Additional factors include, among others, the following: future estimates for production; capital expenditures; operating costs; mineral resources, grade estimates and recovery rates; market prices; business strategies and measures to implement such strategies; competitive strengths; estimates of goals for expansion and growth of the business and operations; plans and references to our future successes; our history of operating losses and uncertainty of future profitability; status as an exploration stage company; the lack of mineral reserves; risks associated with obtaining permits and other authorizations in the U.S.; risks associated with current variable economic conditions; the possible impact of future debt or equity financings; the hazards associated with mining production operations; compliance with environmental laws and regulations; wastewater management; the possibility for adverse results in potential litigation; uncertainties associated with changes in law, government policy and regulation; uncertainties associated with a Canada Revenue Agency or U.S. Internal Revenue Service audit of any of our cross border transactions; changes in size and structure; the effectiveness of management and our strategic relationships; ability to attract and retain key personnel and management; uncertainties regarding the need for additional capital; sufficiency of insurance coverages, bonding surety arrangements, and indemnifications for our inventory; uncertainty regarding the fluctuations of quarterly results; foreign currency exchange risks; ability to enforce civil liabilities under U.S. securities laws outside the U.S.; ability to maintain our listing on the NYSE American and Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”); risks associated with the expected classification as a "passive foreign investment company" under the applicable provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; risks associated with our investments and other risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, dated March 6, 2024.

Cautionary Note to Investors Concerning Disclosure of Mineral Resources

 

Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral resource estimates included in this report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with U.S. securities laws pursuant to Regulation S-K, Subpart 1300 (“S-K 1300”). Prior to these estimates, we prepared our estimates of mineral resources in accord with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (“CIM Definition Standards”). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators which establishes standards for public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. We are required by applicable Canadian Securities Administrators to file in Canada an NI 43-101 compliant report at the same time we file an S-K 1300 technical report summary. The NI 43-101 and S-K 1300 reports (for each of the Lost Creek Property (March 4, 2024) and Shirley Basin Project, as amended (March 11, 2024)), are substantively identical to one another except for internal references to the regulations under which the report is made, and certain organizational differences.

 

Investors should note that the term “mineral resource” does not equate to the term “mineral reserve.” Mineralization may not be classified as a “mineral reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Investors should also understand that “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under S-K 1300, estimated “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies. Additionally, as required under S-K 1300, our report on the Lost Creek Property includes two economic analyses to account for the chance that the inferred resources are not upgraded as production recovery progresses and the Company collects additional drilling data; the second economic analysis was prepared which excluded the inferred resources. The estimated recovery excluding the inferred resources also establishes the potential viability at the property, as detailed in the S-K 1300 report. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable.

Ur-Energy Inc.

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2024

(expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated)

 

1. Nature of Operations

 

Ur-Energy Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on March 22, 2004, under the laws of the Province of Ontario. The Company continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act on August 8, 2006. The Company is an exploration stage issuer, as defined by United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company is engaged in uranium mining and recovery operations, with activities including the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of uranium mineral resources located primarily in Wyoming. The Company commenced uranium production at its Lost Creek Project in Wyoming in 2013.

 

Due to the nature of the uranium recovery methods used by the Company on the Lost Creek Property, and the definition of “mineral reserves” under Subpart 1300 to Regulation S-K (“S-K 1300”), the Company has not determined whether the property contains mineral reserves. The recoverability of amounts recorded for mineral properties is dependent upon the discovery of economic resources, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to develop the properties and upon attaining future profitable production from the properties or sufficient proceeds from disposition of the properties.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of presentation

 

These interim consolidated financial statements do not conform in all respects to the requirements of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) for annual financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal adjustments which in the opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. We applied the same accounting policies as in the prior year. Certain information and footnote disclosures required by US GAAP have been condensed or omitted in these interim consolidated financial statements.

Lost Creek Property

 

The Company acquired certain Wyoming properties in 2005 when Ur-Energy USA Inc. purchased 100% of NFU Wyoming, LLC. Assets acquired in this transaction include the Lost Creek Project, other Wyoming properties, and development databases. NFU Wyoming, LLC was acquired for aggregate consideration of $20 million plus interest. Since 2005, the Company has increased its holdings adjacent to the initial Lost Creek acquisition through staking additional claims and making additional property purchases and leases.

 

There is a royalty on each of the State of Wyoming sections under lease at the Lost Creek, LC West and EN Projects, as required by law. We are not recovering U3O8 within the State section under lease at Lost Creek and are therefore not subject to royalty payments currently. Other royalties exist on certain mining claims at the LC South, LC East and EN Projects. There are no royalties on the mining claims in the Lost Creek, LC North, or LC West Projects.

Shirley Basin Property

 

The Company acquired additional Wyoming properties in 2013 when Ur-Energy USA Inc. purchased 100% of Pathfinder Mines Corporation (“Pathfinder”). Assets acquired in this transaction include the Shirley Basin property, other Wyoming properties, and development databases. Pathfinder was acquired for aggregate consideration of $6.7 million, the assumption of $5.7 million in estimated asset reclamation obligations, and other consideration.

 

Other U.S. Properties

 

Other U.S. properties include the acquisition costs of several prospective mineralized properties, which the Company continues to maintain through claim payments, lease payments, insurance, and other holding costs in anticipation of future exploration efforts.

  9. Notes Payable

 

On October 15, 2013, the Sweetwater County Commissioners approved the issuance of a $34.0 million Sweetwater County, State of Wyoming, Taxable Industrial Development Revenue Bond (Lost Creek Project), Series 2013 (the “Sweetwater IDR Bond”) to the State of Wyoming, acting by and through the Wyoming State Treasurer, as purchaser. On October 23, 2013, the Sweetwater IDR Bond was issued, and the proceeds were in turn loaned by Sweetwater County to Lost Creek ISR, LLC pursuant to a financing agreement dated October 23, 2013 (the “State Bond Loan”). The State Bond Loan called for payments of interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2014. The principal was scheduled to be paid in 28 quarterly installments commencing January 1, 2015.

 

During the term of the State Bond Loan, the Sweetwater County Commissioners and the State of Wyoming approved two separate deferrals of principal payments during the downturn in the uranium market and our period of reduced production operations. Following those deferrals, quarterly principal payments resumed on October 1, 2022, and were scheduled to continue until October 1, 2024.

 

On March 27, 2024, we pre-paid the remaining $4.4 million due on the bond loan. The State Bond Loan was secured by all the assets of the Lost Creek Project. All releases of collateral have been obtained following the final repayment of the facility.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s current debt. The Company has no long-term debt.

10. Warrant Liability

 

In February 2021, the Company issued 16,930,530 warrants to purchase 8,465,265 common shares at $1.35 per whole common share for a term of three years.

 

In February 2023, the Company issued 39,100,000 warrants to purchase 19,550,000 common shares at $1.50 per whole common share for a term of three years.

 

Because the warrants are priced in U.S. dollars and the functional currency of Ur-Energy Inc., the parent entity, is Canadian dollars, a derivative financial liability was created. Using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP, the liability created is measured and recorded at fair value, and adjusted monthly, using the Black-Scholes model described below as there is no active market for the warrants. Any gain or loss from the adjustment of the liability is reflected in net income for the period.

11. Asset Retirement Obligations

 

Asset retirement obligations relate to the Lost Creek mine and Shirley Basin project and are equal to the current estimated reclamation cost escalated at inflation rates ranging from 0.74% to 5.20% and then discounted at credit adjusted risk-free rates ranging from 0.33% to 9.61%. Current estimated reclamation costs include costs of closure, reclamation, demolition and stabilization of the wellfields, processing plants, infrastructure, aquifer restoration, waste dumps, and ongoing post-closure environmental monitoring and maintenance costs. The schedule of payments required to settle the future reclamation extends through 2033.

 

The present value of the estimated future closure estimate is presented in the following table.

The exercise price of a new grant is set at the closing price for the shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) on the trading day immediately preceding the grant date and there is no intrinsic value as of the date of grant. 

 

We received $0.3 million from options exercised in the six months ended June 30, 2024. 

 

Stock-based compensation expense from stock options was $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively and $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

 

As of June 30, 2024, there was approximately $1.5 million of unamortized stock-based compensation expense related to the Option Plan. The expenses are expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average vesting period of 2.3 years under the Option Plan.

Restricted share units

 

On June 24, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of the Company’s restricted share unit plan (the “RSU Plan”), as subsequently amended and now known as the Restricted Share Unit and Equity Incentive Plan (the “RSU&EI Plan”). The RSU&EI Plan was approved by our shareholders most recently on June 2, 2022.

 

Eligible participants under the RSU&EI Plan include directors and employees of the Company. Granted RSUs are redeemed on the second anniversary of the grant. Upon an RSU redemption, the holder of the RSU will receive one common share, for no additional consideration, for each RSU held.

 

Activity with respect to RSUs is summarized as follows:

Fair value calculation assumptions for stock options, restricted share units, and warrants

 

The fair value of stock options are determined using the Black-Scholes model on their respective grant dates.  The fair value of restricted share units are determined using the Intrinsic Value Method on their respective grant dates. 

 

The Company estimates expected future volatility based on daily historical trading data of the Company’s common shares. The risk-free interest rates are determined by reference to Canadian Benchmark Bond Yield rates with maturities that approximate the expected life. The Company has never paid dividends and currently has no plans to do so. Forfeitures and expected lives were estimated based on actual historical experience.

 

Share-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted share units is recognized net of estimated pre-vesting forfeitures, which results in expensing the awards that are ultimately expected to vest over the expected life.

 

13. Sales

 

Revenue is primarily derived from the sale of U3O8 under multi-year agreements or spot sales agreements. The Company also receives disposal fee revenues, which are not related to the sale of U3O8.

 

Revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

14. Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales includes ad valorem and severance taxes related to the extraction of uranium, all costs of wellfield and plant operations including the related depreciation and amortization of capitalized assets, reclamation, and mineral property costs, plus product distribution costs. These costs are also used to value inventory. The resulting inventoried cost per pound is compared to the NRV of the product, which is based on the estimated sales price of the product, net of any necessary costs to finish the product. Any inventory value in excess of the NRV is charged to cost of sales.

15. Operating Costs

 

Operating expenses include exploration and evaluation expense, development expense, general and administration (“G&A”) expense, and mineral property write-offs. Exploration and evaluation expenses consist of labor and the associated costs of the exploration and evaluation departments as well as land holding and exploration costs including drilling and analysis on properties which have not reached the permitting or operations stage. Development expense relates to properties that have reached the permitting or operations stage and include costs associated with exploring, delineating, and permitting a property. Once permitted, development expenses also include the costs associated with the construction and development of the permitted property that are otherwise not eligible to be capitalized. G&A expense relates to the administration, finance, investor relations, land, and legal functions, and consists principally of personnel, facility, and support costs.

17. Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, lease receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, and warrant liabilities. The Company is exposed to risks related to changes in interest rates and management of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. 

 

Credit risk 

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash. These assets include Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar denominated certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and demand deposits. These instruments are maintained at financial institutions in Canada and the U.S. Of the amount held on deposit, approximately $0.6 million is covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, leaving approximately $72.4 million at risk on June 30, 2024, should the financial institutions with which these amounts are invested be rendered insolvent. The Company considers any expected credit losses on its financial instruments to be nominal as of June 30, 2024.

 

 

Currency risk 

 

As of June 30, 2024, we maintained a balance of approximately $2.8 million Canadian dollars. The funds will be used to pay Canadian dollar expenses and are considered to be a low currency risk to the Company.  A hypothetical 10% weakening in the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar as of June 30, 2024 would not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. 

 

Liquidity risk  

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s financial liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $4.1 million, and the current portion of lease liability of $0.2 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $61.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. 

 

Interest rate risk 

 

The Company has completed a sensitivity analysis to estimate the impact that a change in interest rates would have on the net loss of the Company. This sensitivity analysis shows that a change of +/- 100 basis points in interest rate would have a negligible effect on the six months ended June 30, 2024. The financial position of the Company may vary at the time that a change in interest rates occurs, causing the impact on the Company’s results to vary. 

 

18. Subsequent Event

 

On July 29, 2024, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 57,150,000 common shares at a price of $1.05 per common share. The gross proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $60.0 million, before deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company.

 

The Company also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 8,572,500 additional common shares on the same terms. On July 30, 2024, the underwriters exercised in full their option to purchase the option shares. The exercise closed on July 31, 2024. The gross proceeds to the Company from the exercise of the underwriters’ option were approximately $9.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, or approximately $69.0 million in aggregate for the offering.

Item 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

Business Overview

 

The following discussion and analysis by management is designed to provide information that we believe is necessary for an understanding of our financial condition, changes in financial condition, and results of our operations and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and MD&A contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.  

 

Incorporated on March 22, 2004, Ur-Energy is an exploration stage issuer, as that term is defined by the SEC. We are engaged in uranium recovery and processing activities, including the acquisition, exploration, development, and operation of uranium mineral properties in the U.S. We are operating our first in situ recovery uranium facility at our Lost Creek Project in Wyoming. Ur-Energy is a corporation continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act on August 8, 2006. Our common shares are listed on the TSX under the symbol “URE” and on the NYSE American under the symbol “URG.” 

 

Ur-Energy has one wholly owned subsidiary, Ur-Energy USA Inc., incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado. Ur-Energy USA Inc. has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: NFU Wyoming, LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Wyoming which acts as our land holding and exploration entity; Lost Creek ISR, LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of the State of Wyoming to operate our Lost Creek Project and hold our Lost Creek properties and assets; and Pathfinder Mines Corporation, incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, which holds, among other assets, the Shirley Basin Project in Wyoming. Our material U.S. subsidiaries remain unchanged since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, dated March 6, 2024.  

 

We utilize in situ recovery (“ISR”) of the uranium at our flagship project, Lost Creek, and will do so at other projects where possible. The ISR technique is employed in uranium extraction because it allows for an effective recovery of roll front uranium mineralization at a lower cost. At Lost Creek, we extract and process uranium oxide (“U3O8”) for shipping to a third-party conversion facility to be weighed, assayed and stored until sold. After sale, when further processed, the uranium we have produced fuels carbon-free, emissions-free nuclear power which is a cost-effective, safe, and reliable form of electrical power. Nuclear power provides an estimated 50% of the carbon-free electricity in the U.S.  

 

Our Lost Creek wellfield is permitted and licensed for annual recovery of up to 1.2 million pounds U3O8. The processing facility at Lost Creek, which includes all circuits for the production, drying and packaging of U3O8 for delivery into sales transactions, is designed and approved under current licensing to process up to 2.2 million pounds of U3O8 annually, which provides additional capacity of up to one million pounds U3O8 to process material from other sources. The Lost Creek processing facility will be utilized to process captured U3O8 from our Shirley Basin Project for which a satellite plant will be built in 2025. However, the Shirley Basin permit and license allow for the construction of a full processing facility, providing greater construction and operating flexibility as may be dictated by market conditions.

 

Currently, our sales deliveries in 2024 are projected to be 570,000 pounds U3O8 into two of our sales agreements secured in 2022. We now have six multi-year sales agreements which together anticipate sales of approximately 5.7 million pounds U3O8 between 2024 and 2030.

Industry and Market Update

 

In May 2024, a ban on Russian imports of nuclear fuels to the U.S. was signed into law. The law is due to become effective in August 2024. While the legislation has certain waivers available until January 1, 2028, the prohibitions on imports continue through 2040. The ban will help to secure the U.S. nuclear fuel supply chain and advance domestic uranium recovery operations.

 

Utilities and other buyers continue to identify energy security as a nearly universal priority. Beyond the war in Ukraine, continuing Russian misconduct has only strengthened the resolve of fuel purchasers to reduce dependence on Russian nuclear products. U.S. and global utilities have increasingly been seeking non-Russian supplies when negotiating uranium term sales agreements.

 

In April, members of the G7 committed to reducing dependency on Russian nuclear fuel supplies to create a diversified fuel supply chain free from Russian influence, and to offer support to countries which are working to diversify their nuclear fuel sources. 

 

During the quarter, Kazatomprom announced the Government of Kazakhstan adopted amendments to the Kazakh tax code increasing the mineral extraction tax by approximately fifty percent effective in 2025. Additionally, there are differentiated rates which will be applied based upon annual production volume under each subsoil use agreement held by a producer. These taxes are anticipated to bring costs of production for much of Kazakh uranium production in line with other global lower cost operations.

 

Additionally, Kazakh production continues to be hindered by significant supply chain disruptions related to sufficient supply of sulfuric acid for its recovery processes and other materials shortages. Kazatomprom has announced substantially reduced production targets (~20% below state-concession required levels) due to this supply shortage as well as continuing construction delays. 

 

Nearly all uranium producers have faced challenges as they return to production operations. Even for experienced and well financed operators, ramp-up and return to commercial level operations has been impeded by labor, equipment, technical, supply chain and other challenges and delays. This slowed return to full production levels may continue to affect market pricing.

 

Global factors continue to positively influence the uranium recovery market and the nuclear energy industries. Continued growth in the acceptance of nuclear energy, and geopolitics have also contributed to a stronger uranium market with a more optimistic future.

 

Numerous nuclear power plants in the U.S. are planning extension of licensed lifespan while several others are considering returning to operations. The U.S. Department of Energy is proceeding with requests for proposals under both its HALEU and LEU programs for which domestic uranium supply is preferred.

 

These developments have supported both spot and term pricing for uranium. Spot prices averaged $88 per pound U3O8 through the quarter; term pricing remained at approximately $79 per pound U3O8 through the quarter.

 

Mineral Rights and Properties

 

We have 12 U.S. uranium properties. Ten of our uranium properties are in the Great Divide Basin, Wyoming, including Lost Creek. Currently, we control nearly 1,800 unpatented mining claims and three State of Wyoming mineral leases for a total of more than 35,000 acres in the area of the Lost Creek Property, including the Lost Creek permit area (the “Lost Creek Project”), and certain adjoining properties referred to as LC East, LC West, LC North, LC South and EN Project areas (collectively, with the Lost Creek Project, the “Lost Creek Property”). Our Shirley Basin Project permit area, also in Wyoming, comprises nearly 1,800 acres of Company-controlled mineral acres.

Lost Creek Property

 

Lost Creek production is advancing with three header houses having come online in 2024 H1. During Q2 we captured approximately 70,679 pounds, dried and packaged 64,170 pounds and shipped 70,390 pounds U3O8. These figures represent an increase in each of these production numbers compared with Q1 production. Notwithstanding these improvements, we are guiding to the lower side of our earlier 2024 production guidance of 550,000 to 650,000 pounds captured on IX resin.  

 

At quarter end, our in-process inventory was approximately 86,204 pounds, our drummed inventory at Lost Creek was 21,570 pounds, and our finished inventory at the conversion facility was 74,625 pounds U3O8. We shipped 35,199 pounds U3O8 to the conversion facility on July 25, 2024. 

 

Header House (HH) 2-9 came online mid-July and HH 2-10 is scheduled to come online mid-August. Our construction crew is now on track to meet its goal of routinely completing a new header house approximately every thirty days. Throughout Q2 we had 12 drill rigs working at Lost Creek; we anticipate additional drill rigs will mobilize to Lost Creek over the next two months. 

 

Fabrication of HHs 2‑11 through 2-14 is in progress in our Casper construction shop and onsite construction related to these next header houses is well advanced. We recently took delivery of and deployed two downhole geophysical logging trucks that were ordered in early 2023.

 

Our site workforce is stabilizing, with safety and task training advancing. We continue to effectively navigate ongoing supply chain issues through the implementation of our long lead-time purchasing program. The lead time for electrical transformers remains challenging but we have a sufficient number of header house transformers on the ground for at least the next year. 

 

Shirley Basin

 

In Q1 we were pleased to announce plans to begin the buildout of our Shirley Basin in situ recovery facility in Carbon County, Wyoming. Installation of the monitor wells for the first mine unit is on schedule with all of the planned wells piloted and approximately 95% of the wells cased. Well completion is ongoing. After all monitor wells are installed, we will collect baseline water quality and perform hydrologic aquifer tests. The hydrologic confinement at Shirley Basin is well established. We currently have two drill rigs working at Shirley Basin and expect to add a third rig in coming weeks. When the monitor well program is complete, the three rigs will redeploy to Lost Creek until construction and development drilling begins at Shirley Basin in 2025 H1.

The existing south access road to the site has been upgraded to an all-season road. Materials are on-hand and construction will soon commence for the secondary 15kV electrical power line distribution to the mine site. Engineering design is underway for the refurbishment of the pre-existing substation that serviced historic Shirley Basin operations. The office building layout has been approved and bids are under review for the refurbishment of existing site buildings for use as construction, maintenance and casing facilities. Engineering related to the satellite plant, including the wastewater treatment system, is at various stages of design and layout. Steel has been rolled and welded for the 15 IX columns under construction at a fabrication facility in Casper. Long-lead items are advancing on schedule.

 

Sales of U3O8 and Sales Agreements 

 

We sold 75,000 pounds U3O8 in Q2 at an average price of $61.65 per pound for proceeds of $4.6 million. In addition to the 75,000 pounds sold in Q2, we have received binding notices from our customers for the delivery of 495,000 pounds in the second half of this year for total sales of 570,000 pounds U3O8 in 2024. Including the revenue received during the quarter, we expect to realize revenues of $33.1 million from our 2024 U3O8 sales.

 

Subsequent to quarter-end we provided notice to one of our purchasers of a delivery of 100,000 pounds U3O8 which was transferred and sold on August 8, 2024.

  

Deliveries for 2025 are committed to three of our customers for a base amount of 700,000 pounds U3O8. Under these agreements, two of the three buyers may elect to flex up or down by as much as 10% of the annual base delivery quantity. We have received notice from one of our purchasers of its election to flex up its 2025 purchases by 10%, such that we now anticipate we may deliver 730,000 pounds U3O8 into our term sales agreements in 2025. We have not received all the 2025 delivery notices from our purchasers.

 

As previously disclosed, in April we signed the third of three new offtake agreements completed in 2024. The newest agreement calls for annual delivery commitments of up to 100,000 pounds U3O8 in 2026 through 2029, a portion of which is based upon production milestones. Pricing is a combination of escalated fixed price, well above anticipated all-in costs of production, and a market-related pricing component that is subject to an escalated floor and ceiling. We have provided notice to the buyer of satisfaction of the milestones related to the 2026 and 2027 deliveries.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP measures with US GAAP financial statement presentation

 

The following tables include measures specific to U3O8 sales, cost of sales, gross profit, pounds sold, price per pound sold, cost per pound sold, and gross profit per pound sold. These measures do not have standardized meanings within US GAAP or a defined basis of calculation. These measures are used by management to assess business performance and determine production and pricing strategies. They may also be used by certain investors to evaluate performance. The following two tables provide a reconciliation of U3O8 price per pound sold and U3O8 cost per pound sold to the consolidated financial statements.

Cost of sales per the financial statements includes U3O8 costs of sales and lower of cost or NRV adjustments. U3O8 cost of sales includes ad valorem and severance taxes related to the extraction of uranium, all costs of wellfield and plant operations including the related depreciation and amortization of capitalized assets, reclamation, and mineral property costs, plus product distribution costs. These costs are also used to value inventory. The resulting inventoried cost per pound is compared to the NRV of the product, which is based on the estimated sales price of the product, net of any necessary costs to finish the product. Any inventory value in excess of the NRV is charged to cost of sales in the financial statements. NRV adjustments, if any, relate to U3O8 inventories and do not relate to the sale of U3O8, and are excluded from the U3O8 cost of sales and U3O8 cost per pound sold measures.

 As previously announced, the Company made the decision to ramp up operations after securing new term contracts in 2022 with initial deliveries beginning in 2023 Q3.  

 

We sold 75,000 pounds of U3O8 in the six months ended June 30, 2024 at an average price per pound sold of $61.65. 

 

In 2023 Q3 and 2023 Q4, we delivered a total of 180,000 produced pounds of U3O8 into term contracts at an average price per pound sold of $60.45. 

 

Our sales in 2024 are projected at 570,000 pounds of U3O8 at an average price per pound sold of $58.15 and we expect to realize revenues of $33.1 million. The deliveries are under contracts negotiated in 2022, when the long-term price was between $43 and $52 per pound.

 

Deliveries for 2025 are committed to three of our customers for a base amount of 700,000 pounds of U3O8. Under these agreements, two of the three buyers may elect to flex up or down by as much as 10% of the annual base delivery quantity. We received notice from one of our purchasers of its election to flex up its 2025 purchases by 10%, such that we now estimate we will deliver 730,000 pounds of U3O8 into our term sales agreements in 2025. We have not received all the 2025 delivery notices from our purchasers.

Wellfield production at Lost Creek resumed in 2023 Q2 and 4,392 pounds were captured during the quarter. Pounds captured was 30,491 pounds in 2023 Q3 and increased again to 68,448 pounds in 2023 Q4 as mining activities increased. Pounds captured in 2024 Q1 decreased to 38,221 pounds but rebounded to 70,679 pounds in 2024 Q2.  The decrease in Q1 was due to dryer issues in the plant, which limited our ability to bring new pounds into the plant.

Table of Contents

 

Plant production at Lost Creek resumed in 2023 Q3 with 15,759 pounds drummed during the quarter.  Drying operations encountered labor and equipment issues that reduced plant throughput in 2023 Q4. The equipment issues were addressed, and 39,229 pounds were drummed in 2024 Q1 and 64,170 pounds were drummed in 2024 Q2. 

 

There were no shipments in 2023. The first shipment of U3O8 to the conversion facility since the return to commercial operations was completed in 2024 Q1, when 35,445 pounds were delivered to the conversion facility. During 2024 Q2, two shipments totaling 70,390 pounds were shipped to the conversion facility.

 

We ended the quarter with 86,204 pounds in process, 21,570 drummed pounds in the plant, and 74,625 pounds at the conversion facility. 

 

Because production rates were low during the initial ramp up period, the cost per pound to produce inventory exceeded its NRV. Production increased in 2024 Q1 and Q2. As expected, the NRV adjustments decreased from $2.5 million in 2023 Q4 to $1.1 million in 2024 Q1 and decreased again to $0.2 million in 2024 Q2.  The last NRV adjustment was in April 2024, which was the only NRV adjustment of the second quarter.

 

The cost per produced pound at the conversion facility increased during the quarter reflecting the higher cost per pound of the drummed inventory shipped to the conversion facility in 2024. As production and shipments continue to increase to targeted levels, we expect the cost per pound in ending inventory and ultimately the cost per pound sold to level off and then decrease accordingly.

Including NRV cost of sales adjustments, cost of sales was $3.3 million and $4.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and $3.0 million and $9.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Excluding NRV adjustments, cost of sales was $3.1 million and $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The sales of 75,000 pounds of U3O8 in 2024 were all out of produced product at a cost of $41.69 per pound. The sale in 2023 was from existing conversion facility inventory that the Company had in place at the end of 2022. We sold 43,259 produced pounds of U3O8 at a cost per pound sold of $28.06 and 56,741 purchased pounds at a cost per pound sold of $42.56, which resulted in an average U3O8 cost per pound sold of $36.29 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. 

 

Cost of sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 included $0.2 million and $1.3 million of NRV adjustments, respectively. Cost of sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 included NRV adjustments of $3.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively.  The decrease is attributable to increased production for the respective periods. The last NRV adjustment was in April 2024, which was the only NRV adjustment of the second quarter.

 

Gross Profit (Loss)  

 

Excluding the NRV adjustments, the U3O8 gross profit in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.5 million, or approximately $19.96 per pound on average. The gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $36.41 per produced pound sold and $21.91 per purchased pound sold for an average of $28.18 per pound.

Total operating costs increased $6.7 million in the first three months and $18.8 million for the six months of 2024 as compared to 2023. The increases were mainly due to development costs at Lost Creek, including disposal well completion costs, and higher labor costs, which resulted from an increase in staffing.

Exploration and evaluation expense consists of labor and the associated costs of the exploration, evaluation, and regulatory departments, as well as land holding and exploration costs on properties that have not reached the development or operations stage. Exploration and evaluation expenses increased approximately $0.2 million and $0.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. For the quarter, the biggest increase was for outside services.  For the six months, the largest increase was for labor, much of which was additional staffing, as well as the increase in services, which occurred primarily in the second quarter. 

 

The Company is considered an exploration stage issuer and expenses its pre-production development costs. As noted above, these development costs are incurred in advance of production from the related mining areas. Development expense includes costs incurred at the Lost Creek Project not directly attributable to production activities, including wellfield construction, drilling, and development costs. It also includes costs incurred at the Shirley Basin Project not directly attributable to the construction of the capitalizable assets of the project, including the installation of the wellfield monitor well ring and other development costs. The following table summarizes the development costs included in operating costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Development expenses increased approximately $7.0 million and $17.4 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The increases were driven by drilling activities and the related wellfield construction costs that relate to the MU2 development program at Lost Creek. In addition, development costs also included $3.7 million related to completion of a new disposal well at Lost Creek. At Shirley Basin, we have begun to install the monitor well ring and incurred approximately $1.1 million and $1.3 million in related development costs in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.

 

General and administration expenses relate to the administration, finance, investor relations, land, and legal functions, and consist principally of personnel, facility, and support costs. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the expenses decreased $0.5 million and increased $0.6 million, respectively. The $0.6 million increase was primarily due to the higher labor costs.

 

Other Income and Expenses 

 

Higher interest rates and cash balances have generated significant interest income in 2024. At the same time, interest expense decreased after the Company paid off the loan in March 2024. 

 

For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2024, the warrant liability mark to market revaluation resulted in $4.2 and $1.5 million gains, compared to $1.2 and $3.1 million gains in 2023, respectively. As a part of the February 2021 and February 2023 underwritten public offerings, we issued warrants that were priced in U.S. dollars. The outstanding warrant positions combined with volatility in the Company’s stock price led to a significant decrease in the warrant liability and a corresponding mark to market gain. 

 

Changes in foreign exchange rates were negligible for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. In 2023, we briefly held higher U.S. dollar balances in a Canadian bank following the February 2023 underwritten public offering, which led to a $0.3 million foreign exchange gain.

Earnings (loss) per Common Share

 

 

The basic and diluted losses per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was $0.02 and $0.9, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the losses per share were $0.03 for both periods. The diluted loss per common share is equal to the basic loss per common share due to the anti-dilutive effect of all convertible securities in periods of loss. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As shown in the Interim Consolidated Statements of Cash Flow, our cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased from the December 31, 2023 balance of $68.2 million to $72.1 million as of June 30, 2024. Cash resources consist of Canadian and U.S. dollar denominated deposit and money market accounts, and U.S. treasury fund investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we spent $25.6 million on operating activities, used $1.9 million for investing activities, and generated $31.4 million from financing activities.

 

Operating activities used $25.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. We sold 75,000 pounds of U3O8 for $4.6 million during the quarter and generated $1.1 million from interest income, net of loan interest expense of $0.1 million. We spent $5.8 million on production-related cash costs, $26.0 million on operating costs, and had a $0.5 million favorable working capital movement primarily related to an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

 

Investing activities used $1.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. We spent $1.0 million on construction and equipment at Shirley Basin and $0.9 million for vehicles and equipment. The vehicles and equipment will be used primarily at Lost Creek.

 

Financing activities provided $31.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. We received net proceeds of $25.8 million from the sale of common shares through our At Market Facility, and $11.4 million from the exercise of warrant and stock options. We spent $5.7 million on the Wyoming bond loan, ultimately paying off the loan in March 2024 and $0.1 million on lease payments.

 

Wyoming State Bond Loan

 

On October 23, 2013, we closed a $34.0 million Sweetwater County, State of Wyoming, Taxable Industrial Development Revenue Bond financing program loan (“State Bond Loan”). The State Bond Loan called for payments of interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum on a quarterly basis, which commenced January 1, 2014. The principal was to be payable in 28 quarterly installments, which commenced January 1, 2015.

 

During the term of the State Bond Loan, the Sweetwater County Commissioners and the State of Wyoming approved two separate deferrals of principal payments during the downturn in the uranium market and our period of reduced production operations. Following those deferrals, quarterly principal payments resumed on October 1, 2022, and were scheduled to continue until October 1, 2024.

 

On March 27, 2024, we pre-paid the remaining $4.4 million due on the bond loan. The State Bond Loan was secured by all the assets of the Lost Creek Project. All releases of collateral have been obtained following the final repayment of the facility.

 

Universal Shelf Registration and At Market Facility

 

On May 29, 2020, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. (“B. Riley Securities”), relating to our common shares. On June 7, 2021, we amended and restated the Sales Agreement to include Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor,” and together with B. Riley Securities, the “Agents”) as a co-agent. Under the Sales Agreement, as amended, we may, from time to time, issue and sell Common Shares at market prices on the NYSE American or other U.S. market through the agents for aggregate sales proceeds of up to $50 million. The Sales Agreement was filed in conjunction with a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3, effective May 27, 2020, which has now expired.

 

 
36

Table of Contents

 

On November 23, 2021, we filed a new universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC through which we may offer and sell, from time to time, in one or more offerings, at prices and terms to be determined, up to $100 million of our common shares, warrants to purchase our common shares, our senior and subordinated debt securities, and rights to purchase our common shares and/or senior and subordinated debt securities. The registration statement became effective December 17, 2021, for a three-year period.

 

On December 17, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the Sales Agreement (“Amendment No. 1” and together with the Sales Agreement, the “Amended Sales Agreement”) with the Agents to, among other things, reflect the new registration statement under which we may sell up to $50 million from time to time through or to the Agents under the Amended Sales Agreement, in addition to amounts previously sold under the Sales Agreement. In February 2023, in conjunction with our underwritten public offering, we filed a prospectus supplement by which we decreased the amount of common stock offered pursuant to the Amended Sales Agreement.

 

On June 28, 2023, we filed a new universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC through which we may offer and sell, from time to time, in one or more offerings, at prices and terms to be determined, up to $175 million of our common shares, warrants to purchase our common shares, our senior and subordinated debt securities, and rights to purchase our common shares and/or senior and subordinated debt securities. The registration statement became effective July 19, 2023, for a three-year period.

 

On July 19, 2023, we entered into a further amendment to the Amended Sales Agreement (“Amendment No. 2” and hereafter the “Amended Sales Agreement”) with the Agents to, among other things, reflect the new registration statement under which we may sell up to $50 million from time to time through or to the Agents under the Amended Sales Agreement, in addition to amounts previously sold under the Sales Agreement. Subsequently, we filed a new prospectus supplement in June 2024 under which we may sell up to $100 million from time to time through or to the Agents under the Amended Sales Agreement, including the common shares previously sold under the Sales Agreement.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we utilized the Amended Sales Agreement for gross proceeds of $26.6 million from sales of 15,573,025 common shares.

 

2023 Underwritten Public Offering

 

On February 21, 2023, the Company closed a $46.1 million underwritten public offering of 39,100,000 common shares and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 19,550,000 common shares, at a combined public offering price of $1.18 per common share and accompanying warrant. The gross proceeds to Ur‑Energy from this offering were approximately $46.1 million. After fees and expenses of $3.0 million, net proceeds to the Company were approximately $43.1 million.

 

Liquidity Outlook 

 

As of August 6, 2024, our unrestricted cash position was $121.3 million, which reflects the proceeds from our recent underwritten public offering.  

 

We expect to realize revenues of $33.1 million from the sale of 570,000 pounds of uranium to be delivered in 2024. We had 74,625 pounds of conversion facility inventory on June 30, 2024. We delivered 75,000 pounds into sales contracts in April 2024. As of August 6, 2024, we had 109,824 pounds of U3O8 in our conversion facility inventory. As noted above, of that conversion facility inventory, we will deliver and sell 100,000 pounds U3O8 to one of our customers on August 8, 2024.

 

 
37

Table of Contents

 

Our unrestricted cash position and expected proceeds from uranium sales are anticipated to cover production and development costs as we ramp up production at Lost Creek, ongoing corporate overhead, and development and construction expenditures at Shirley Basin.

 

We expect the planned development and construction of the Shirley Basin Project in 2025 and 2026 will be funded by operating cash flow, cash on hand, or additional financing as required. We have no immediate plans to issue additional securities or obtain funding, however, we may issue additional debt or equity securities at any time. 

 

Looking Ahead 

 

Header House (HH) 2-10 is scheduled to come online mid-August. Our construction crew is now on track to meet its goal of routinely completing a new header house approximately every thirty days. Throughout Q2 we had 12 drill rigs working at Lost Creek; we anticipate additional drill rigs will mobilize to Lost Creek in the next two months. 

 

Fabrication of HHs 2-11 through 2-14 is in progress in our Casper construction shop and onsite construction related to these next header houses is well advanced.

 

Although we continue to experience equipment and operational challenges, we are seeing month-over-month increases in production, drying and packaging. At August 4, 2024, we drummed and packaged an estimated 25,800 pounds U3O8 since quarter end. We continue to see very positive grades and production from the latest header houses brought online.  

 

Notwithstanding the advances we have made, we are guiding to the lower side of our earlier 2024 production guidance of 550,000 and 650,000 pounds U3O8 captured at Lost Creek. We have made four shipments of U3O8 to the converter in 2024 and anticipate routine shipments throughout the remainder of the year. 

 

We have commitments under contracts negotiated in 2022, when the long-term price was between $43 and $52 per pound, for deliveries of 570,000 pounds U3O8 in 2024 and expect to realize revenues of $33.1 million. 

 

Uranium spot prices remained strong and relatively stable in 2024 Q2, with pricing averaging approximately $88 per pound U3O8 during the quarter. Nuclear utilities and other purchasers are back in the market, which has sustained term pricing, which averaged $78 per pound U3O8 at the end of 2024 Q1 and $80 per pound U3O8 at the end of 2024 Q2.  

 

We continue to receive requests for proposals (“RFPs”) from utilities and other global fuel buyers. We have responded to the RFPs with prices commensurate with rising market conditions including increased demand for domestically produced uranium. As discussed above, we completed three additional uranium sales agreements during 2024 H1. Our contract book now stands at a total of approximately 5.7 million pounds U3O8 with deliveries occurring in 2024 through 2030. Sales prices are anticipated to be profitable on an all-in production cost basis and escalate annually from initial pricing, including some market-based pricing features.

 

With our expanded sales contract book, and encouraging market conditions, we have decided to proceed with the buildout of a satellite facility at our wholly owned, fully permitted and licensed Shirley Basin Project in Carbon County, Wyoming. The buildout will nearly double our annual permitted mine production to 2.2 million pounds U3O8.

Table of Contents

 

Construction and drilling at the site have proceeded since weather and conditions on the ground permitted in late spring. Installation of the monitor well ring for the first mine unit remains on schedule to be complete this year. Road construction and the refurbishment of existing and installation of new electric infrastructure are all advancing. Major construction activities at Shirley Basin are expected to begin in 2025 and initial production is expected to commence in early 2026. 

 

Following our recent public offering, we had $121.3 in cash resources as of August 6, 2024. With this strong treasury, we are well funded for upcoming construction at Shirley Basin and for strategic opportunities for accretive expansion through organic or inorganic growth.

 

We are pleased to be one of the few publicly traded companies that is commercially recovering uranium and expanding our production capacity to sell into a strengthening uranium market. As discussed, stronger prices have already enabled us to secure multi-year sales agreements with leading nuclear companies, which in turn allowed us to resume commercial production at Lost Creek and initiate construction and development activities at Shirley Basin. 

 

We will continue to closely monitor the uranium markets, and other developments, which may affect the uranium production industry and provide the opportunity to put in place additional off-take sales contracts. 

 

As always, we will focus on maintaining safe and compliant operations.

 

Transactions with Related Parties 

 

There were no reportable transactions with related parties during the quarter. 

 

Proposed Transactions 

 

As is typical of the mineral exploration, development, and mining industry, we will consider and review potential merger, acquisition, investment and venture transactions and opportunities that could enhance shareholder value. Timely disclosure of such transactions is made as soon as reportable events arise. 

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates 

 

We have established the existence of uranium resources at the Lost Creek Property, but because of the unique nature of in situ recovery mines, we have not established, and have no plans to establish, the existence of proven and probable reserves at this project. Accordingly, we have adopted an accounting policy with respect to the nature of items that qualify for capitalization for in situ U3O8 mining operations to align our policy to the accounting treatment that has been established as best practice for these types of mining operations. 

 

The development of the wellfield includes injection, production and monitor well drilling and completion, piping within the wellfield and to the processing facility and header houses used to monitor production and disposal wells associated with the operation of the mine. These costs are expensed when incurred. 

 

Mineral Properties 

 

Acquisition costs of mineral properties are capitalized. When production is attained at a property, these costs will be amortized over an estimated benefit period. 

 

Development costs including, but not limited to, production wells, header houses, piping and power will be expensed as incurred as we have no proven and probable reserves.

Table of Contents

 

Inventory and Cost of Sales

 

Our inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value based on projected revenues from the sale of that product. We are allocating all costs of operations of the Lost Creek facility to the inventory valuation at various stages of production except for wellfield and disposal well costs which are treated as development expenses when incurred. Depreciation of facility enclosures, equipment, and asset retirement obligations as well as amortization of the acquisition cost of the related property is also included in the inventory valuation.

 

Share-Based Expense and Warrant Liability 

 

We are required to initially record all equity instruments including warrants, restricted share units and stock options at fair value in the financial statements. 

 

Management utilizes the Black-Scholes model to calculate the fair value of the warrants and stock options at the time they are issued. In addition, the fair value of derivative warrant liability is recalculated monthly using the Black-Scholes model with any gain or loss being reflected in the net income for the period. Use of the Black-Scholes model requires management to make estimates regarding the expected volatility of the Company’s stock over the future life of the equity instrument, the estimate of the expected life of the equity instrument and the number of options that are expected to be forfeited. Determination of these estimates requires significant judgment and requires management to formulate estimates of future events based on a limited history of actual results.  

 

The fair value of the restricted share units is based on the intrinsic method, which uses the closing price of the common shares on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the grant. 

 

Impairment of long-lived assets 

 

The Company assesses the possibility of impairment in the net carrying value of its long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. When potential impairment is indicated, management calculates the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows relating to the asset or asset group using estimated future prices, recoverable resources, and operating, capital, and reclamation costs. When the carrying value of an asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value, which is determined using discounted future net cash flows, or other measures of fair value. 

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements 

 

We have not entered into any material off balance sheet arrangements such as guaranteed contracts, contingent interests in assets transferred to unconsolidated entities, derivative instrument obligations, or with respect to any obligations under a variable interest entity arrangement.

 

Outstanding Share Data 

 

As of August 6, 2024, we had outstanding 362,274,028 common shares and 8,536,608 options to acquire common shares.

Item 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk to the Company of adverse financial impact due to changes in the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments because of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.  

 

Credit risk 

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. These assets include Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar denominated certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and demand deposits. These instruments are maintained at financial institutions in Canada and the U.S. Of the amount held on deposit, approximately $0.6 million is covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, leaving approximately $72.4 million at risk on June 30, 2024, should the financial institutions with which these amounts are invested be rendered insolvent. The Company considers any expected credit losses on its financial instruments to be nominal as of June 30, 2024. 

 

Currency risk 

 

As of June 30, 2024, we maintained a balance of approximately $2.8 million Canadian dollars. The funds will be used to pay Canadian dollar expenses and are considered to be a low currency risk to the Company.  A hypothetical 10% weakening in the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar as of June 30, 2024 would not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. 

 

Liquidity risk  

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s financial liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $4.1 million, and the current portion of lease liability of $0.2 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $61.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. 

 

Interest rate risk 

 

Financial instruments that expose the Company to interest rate risk are its cash equivalents, deposits, restricted cash, and debt financings. Our objectives for managing our cash and cash equivalents are to always maintain sufficient funds on hand to meet day-to-day requirements and to place any amounts that are considered more than day-to-day requirements on short-term deposit with the Company's financial institutions to earn interest. 

 

Commodity Price Risk 

 

The Company is subject to market risk related to the market price of uranium. Future sales would be impacted by both spot and long-term uranium price fluctuations. Historically, uranium prices have been subject to fluctuation, and the price of uranium has been and will continue to be affected by numerous factors beyond our control, including the demand for nuclear power, political and economic conditions, governmental legislation in uranium producing and consuming countries, and production levels and costs of production of other producing companies. The average spot market price was $82.00 per pound U3O8 as of August 6, 2024.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this MD&A, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information the Company is required to disclose in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act: (1) is recorded, processed and summarized effectively and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures include components of internal control over financial reporting. No matter how well designed and operated, internal controls over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Nature of Operations

1. Nature of Operations

 

Ur-Energy Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on March 22, 2004, under the laws of the Province of Ontario. The Company continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act on August 8, 2006. The Company is an exploration stage issuer, as defined by United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company is engaged in uranium mining and recovery operations, with activities including the acquisition, exploration, development, and production of uranium mineral resources located primarily in Wyoming. The Company commenced uranium production at its Lost Creek Project in Wyoming in 2013.

 

Due to the nature of the uranium recovery methods used by the Company on the Lost Creek Property, and the definition of “mineral reserves” under Subpart 1300 to Regulation S-K (“S-K 1300”), the Company has not determined whether the property contains mineral reserves. The recoverability of amounts recorded for mineral properties is dependent upon the discovery of economic resources, the ability of the Company to obtain the necessary financing to develop the properties and upon attaining future profitable production from the properties or sufficient proceeds from disposition of the properties.

Lost Creek Property

 

The Company acquired certain Wyoming properties in 2005 when Ur-Energy USA Inc. purchased 100% of NFU Wyoming, LLC. Assets acquired in this transaction include the Lost Creek Project, other Wyoming properties, and development databases. NFU Wyoming, LLC was acquired for aggregate consideration of $20 million plus interest. Since 2005, the Company has increased its holdings adjacent to the initial Lost Creek acquisition through staking additional claims and making additional property purchases and leases.

 

There is a royalty on each of the State of Wyoming sections under lease at the Lost Creek, LC West and EN Projects, as required by law. We are not recovering U3O8 within the State section under lease at Lost Creek and are therefore not subject to royalty payments currently. Other royalties exist on certain mining claims at the LC South, LC East and EN Projects. There are no royalties on the mining claims in the Lost Creek, LC North, or LC West Projects.

Shirley Basin Property

 

The Company acquired additional Wyoming properties in 2013 when Ur-Energy USA Inc. purchased 100% of Pathfinder Mines Corporation (“Pathfinder”). Assets acquired in this transaction include the Shirley Basin property, other Wyoming properties, and development databases. Pathfinder was acquired for aggregate consideration of $6.7 million, the assumption of $5.7 million in estimated asset reclamation obligations, and other consideration.

 

Other U.S. Properties

 

Other U.S. properties include the acquisition costs of several prospective mineralized properties, which the Company continues to maintain through claim payments, lease payments, insurance, and other holding costs in anticipation of future exploration efforts.

On October 15, 2013, the Sweetwater County Commissioners approved the issuance of a $34.0 million Sweetwater County, State of Wyoming, Taxable Industrial Development Revenue Bond (Lost Creek Project), Series 2013 (the “Sweetwater IDR Bond”) to the State of Wyoming, acting by and through the Wyoming State Treasurer, as purchaser. On October 23, 2013, the Sweetwater IDR Bond was issued, and the proceeds were in turn loaned by Sweetwater County to Lost Creek ISR, LLC pursuant to a financing agreement dated October 23, 2013 (the “State Bond Loan”). The State Bond Loan called for payments of interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum on a quarterly basis commencing January 1, 2014. The principal was scheduled to be paid in 28 quarterly installments commencing January 1, 2015.

 

During the term of the State Bond Loan, the Sweetwater County Commissioners and the State of Wyoming approved two separate deferrals of principal payments during the downturn in the uranium market and our period of reduced production operations. Following those deferrals, quarterly principal payments resumed on October 1, 2022, and were scheduled to continue until October 1, 2024.

 

On March 27, 2024, we pre-paid the remaining $4.4 million due on the bond loan. The State Bond Loan was secured by all the assets of the Lost Creek Project. All releases of collateral have been obtained following the final repayment of the facility.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s current debt. The Company has no long-term debt.

10. Warrant Liability

 

In February 2021, the Company issued 16,930,530 warrants to purchase 8,465,265 common shares at $1.35 per whole common share for a term of three years.

 

In February 2023, the Company issued 39,100,000 warrants to purchase 19,550,000 common shares at $1.50 per whole common share for a term of three years.

 

Because the warrants are priced in U.S. dollars and the functional currency of Ur-Energy Inc., the parent entity, is Canadian dollars, a derivative financial liability was created. Using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy under US GAAP, the liability created is measured and recorded at fair value, and adjusted monthly, using the Black-Scholes model described below as there is no active market for the warrants.

Asset retirement obligations relate to the Lost Creek mine and Shirley Basin project and are equal to the current estimated reclamation cost escalated at inflation rates ranging from 0.74% to 5.20% and then discounted at credit adjusted risk-free rates ranging from 0.33% to 9.61%. Current estimated reclamation costs include costs of closure, reclamation, demolition and stabilization of the wellfields, processing plants, infrastructure, aquifer restoration, waste dumps, and ongoing post-closure environmental monitoring and maintenance costs. The schedule of payments required to settle the future reclamation extends through 2033.

The Company’s share capital consists of an unlimited amount of Class A preferred shares authorized, without par value, of which no shares are issued and outstanding; and an unlimited amount of common shares authorized, without par value, of which 295,184,728 shares and 270,898,900 shares were issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

On February 21, 2023, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 34,000,000 common shares and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 17,000,000 common shares, at a combined public offering price of $1.18 per common share and accompanying warrant. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.50 per whole common share and will expire three years from the date of issuance. Ur-Energy also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 5,100,000 common shares and warrants to purchase up to 2,550,000 common shares on the same terms. The option was exercised in full. Including the exercised option, Ur-Energy issued a total of 39,100,000 common shares and accompanying warrants to purchase up to 19,550,000 common shares. The gross proceeds to Ur-Energy from this offering were approximately $46.1 million. After fees and expenses of $3.0 million, net proceeds to the Company were approximately $43.1 million.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold 15,573,025 common shares through its At Market facility for $26.6 million. After issue costs of $0.8 million, net proceeds to the Company were $25.8 million.

 

Stock options

 

In 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the adoption of the Company's stock option plan (the “Option Plan”). The Option Plan was most recently approved by the shareholders on June 2, 2023. Eligible participants under the Option Plan include directors, officers, employees, and consultants of the Company. Under the terms of the Option Plan, grants of options will vest over a three-year period: one-third on the first anniversary, one-third on the second anniversary, and one-third on the third anniversary of the grant. The term of the options is five years.

Restricted share units

 

On June 24, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved the adoption of the Company’s restricted share unit plan (the “RSU Plan”), as subsequently amended and now known as the Restricted Share Unit and Equity Incentive Plan (the “RSU&EI Plan”). The RSU&EI Plan was approved by our shareholders most recently on June 2, 2022.

 

Eligible participants under the RSU&EI Plan include directors and employees of the Company. Granted RSUs are redeemed on the second anniversary of the grant. Upon an RSU redemption, the holder of the RSU will receive one common share, for no additional consideration, for each RSU held.

Fair value calculation assumptions for stock options, restricted share units, and warrants

 

The fair value of stock options are determined using the Black-Scholes model on their respective grant dates.  The fair value of restricted share units are determined using the Intrinsic Value Method on their respective grant dates. 

 

The Company estimates expected future volatility based on daily historical trading data of the Company’s common shares. The risk-free interest rates are determined by reference to Canadian Benchmark Bond Yield rates with maturities that approximate the expected life. The Company has never paid dividends and currently has no plans to do so. Forfeitures and expected lives were estimated based on actual historical experience.

 

Share-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted share units is recognized net of estimated pre-vesting forfeitures, which results in expensing the awards that are ultimately expected to vest over the expected life.

Cost of sales includes ad valorem and severance taxes related to the extraction of uranium, all costs of wellfield and plant operations including the related depreciation and amortization of capitalized assets, reclamation, and mineral property costs, plus product distribution costs. These costs are also used to value inventory. The resulting inventoried cost per pound is compared to the NRV of the product, which is based on the estimated sales price of the product, net of any necessary costs to finish the product. Any inventory value in excess of the NRV is charged to cost of sales.

Exploration and evaluation expenses consist of labor and the associated costs of the exploration and evaluation departments as well as land holding and exploration costs including drilling and analysis on properties which have not reached the permitting or operations stage. Development expense relates to properties that have reached the permitting or operations stage and include costs associated with exploring, delineating, and permitting a property. Once permitted, development expenses also include the costs associated with the construction and development of the permitted property that are otherwise not eligible to be capitalized. G&A expense relates to the administration, finance, investor relations, land, and legal functions, and consists principally of personnel, facility, and support costs.

17. Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, lease receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, and warrant liabilities. The Company is exposed to risks related to changes in interest rates and management of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. 

 

Credit risk 

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash. These assets include Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar denominated certificates of deposit, money market accounts, and demand deposits. These instruments are maintained at financial institutions in Canada and the U.S. Of the amount held on deposit, approximately $0.6 million is covered by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, or the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, leaving approximately $72.4 million at risk on June 30, 2024, should the financial institutions with which these amounts are invested be rendered insolvent. The Company considers any expected credit losses on its financial instruments to be nominal as of June 30, 2024.

 

 

Currency risk 

 

As of June 30, 2024, we maintained a balance of approximately $2.8 million Canadian dollars. The funds will be used to pay Canadian dollar expenses and are considered to be a low currency risk to the Company.  A hypothetical 10% weakening in the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar as of June 30, 2024 would not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. 

 

Liquidity risk  

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s financial liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $4.1 million, and the current portion of lease liability of $0.2 million. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $61.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. 

 

Interest rate risk 

 

The Company has completed a sensitivity analysis to estimate the impact that a change in interest rates would have on the net loss of the Company. This sensitivity analysis shows that a change of +/- 100 basis points in interest rate would have a negligible effect on the six months ended June 30, 2024. The financial position of the Company may vary at the time that a change in interest rates occurs, causing the impact on the Company’s results to vary.

18. Subsequent Event

 

On July 29, 2024, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 57,150,000 common shares at a price of $1.05 per common share. The gross proceeds to the Company from the offering were approximately $60.0 million, before deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company.

 

The Company also granted the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 8,572,500 additional common shares on the same terms. On July 30, 2024, the underwriters exercised in full their option to purchase the option shares. The exercise closed on July 31, 2024. The gross proceeds to the Company from the exercise of the underwriters’ option were approximately $9.0 million, before deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, or approximately $69.0 million in aggregate for the offering.
