Eskay Mining Discovers a New VMS Center at Jeff North and Intercepts Polymetallic VMS Mineralization in Two Areas Along TV-Jeff Corridor

Research, News and Market Data on Eskay Mining

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / August 9, 2022 / Eskay Mining Corp. (“Eskay” or the “Company”) (TSXV:ESK)(OTCQX:ESKYF)(Frankfurt:KN7) (WKN:A0YDPM) is pleased to announce discovery of a new volcanogenic massive sulfide (“VMS”) center at Jeff North as well as recent drill intercepts of polymetallic mineralization in two areas along the TV-Jeff corridor, part of its 100% controlled Consolidated Eskay project, British Columbia. As of this release, over 13,000m of diamond drilling has been undertaken in numerous drill holes along 3.7km of strike at TV-Jeff. Diamond drilling also continues at the Scarlet Ridge area, subject of a Company news release dated July 27, 2022. To date, the Company has completed approximately 15,600m of diamond core drilling, approximately 52% of the 30,000m planned to be completed in 2022. Drill production remains on target to reach this aggressive goal with four drills fully operational.

“As with the Scarlet Ridge-Tarn Lake VMS corridor, the TV-Jeff VMS corridor is proving itself to be another large VMS complex with sulfide mineralization focused along multiple syn-volcanic fault structures each closely associated with intense hydrothermal alteration of volcanic rocks”, commented Dr. John DeDecker, Eskay Mining’s VP of Exploration. “The discovery of Jeff North now extends the strike length of the known TV-Jeff VMS corridor to 3.7km. Importantly, recent drill holes completed in two areas have yielded intercepts of polymetallic sulfide mineralization with abundant chalcopyrite and sphalerite. Spot XRF readings taken from core indicates promising pathfinder element support including silver from this style of mineralization. Also encouraging, anomalous geochemical results recently received from soil samples collected at the very start of the 2022 exploration season indicate mineralization potentially extends another 2 km further north from Jeff North. We are optimistic that multiple other VMS targets we have recently identified along the TV-Jeff trend will prove mineralized, and we continue to grow confident about the potential for the Consolidated Eskay project to host an entire VMS district.”

Jeff North

Drilling at Jeff North targeted a large conductive SkyTEM anomaly coincident with a ridge of silicified peperitic basalt displaying strong Ag-in-soil anomalies from samples collected during the 2021 program. Strong VMS stockwork mineralization encountered in recent drilling at Jeff North lies 600m north of Jeff and extends at least 700m northwards along strike remaining open to the north. Some stockwork intervals are distinctly polymetallic displaying abundant sphalerite and chalcopyrite in addition to the ubiquitous pyrite. This mineralogy coupled with the presence of strong pathfinder elements including Ag, As, Sb, Cu, Zn, and Pb as detected by handheld XRF provide encouragement for presence of Au and Ag, both of which must be assayed for accurate measurement.Core is being logged, split and sampled in preparation for submittal for assaying.

Jeff North Drilling Highlights

  • At present, drilling at Jeff North has ceased and the focus has moved onto TV, the area between TV and Jeff (Figures 1 and 2), and Scarlet Ridge. This said, Eskay is prepared to follow up with drilling at Jeff North late-season should assays confirm this to be a significant new discovery.
  • Jeff North represents a new VMS discovery beginning 600m north of Jeff and extending at least 700m northwards. Sulfide mineralization is hosted by intensely silicified peperitic basalt and andesite flows (Figures 3 and 4). Mineralization remains open to the north as well as down-dip.
  • J22-118 intercepted a 12.7m interval of polymetallic sulfide mineralization hosted within a silica-rich hydrothermal breccia and surrounding silicified mudstone (Figures 5 and 6). Sulfide mineralization includes abundant chalcopyrite and sphalerite. The presence of chalcopyrite with intense silicification suggests the proximity to a higher temperature VMS feeder zone than those encountered at TV and Jeff.
  • Handheld XRF analyses of sulfide mineralization in several drill holes from Jeff North show high concentrations of the pathfinder elements Ag, As, Sb, Cu, Zn, and Pb.
  • Early results from the 2022 soil sampling program show Ag and Hg anomalism extends 2km further north than hole J22-99 (Figure 9), the northernmost drill hole completed at Jeff North. Given that the Jeff North target was recognized as a SkyTEM conductivity high with an accompanying soil geochemical anomaly, Eskay’s exploration team is optimistic that the Jeff North VMS system extends further northward. Soil sampling over a large SkyTEM conductive high approximately 1.8km north of Jeff North is currently underway.
  • J22-122 intercepted a 9.0 m interval of polymetallic sulfide mineralization hosted by intensely silicified andesitic peperite and associated mudstone (Figures 7 and 8). Polymetallic mineralization in both J22-118 and J22-122 occur at an equivalent horizon to the lower stockwork zone at Jeff 125 m south of J22-122.

Commencement of Drilling at TV

  • Drilling has commenced at TV focusing on expanding upon the core body of mineralization identified in 2021 drilling. Planned drill holes will test extensions of TV mineralization further down-dip, along strike to the north and south, and up stratigraphic section.
  • Testing of nearby IP-resistivity and SkyTEM targets is also scheduled. Based on past success of targeting VMS mineralization using SkyTEM and soil data at Jeff North, Jeff, and TV, the Eskay team is optimistic that a cluster of SkyTEM conductivity highs surrounding TV will lead to discovery of additional VMS mineralization.
  • The first 2022 drill hole at TV, TV22-84, intercepted approximately 40m of stockwork sulfide mineralization 65m down-dip from TV21-54, a very promising indication the system remains open in this direction (Figures 10 and 11).

To date, Eskay Mining has completed approximately 15,600m of diamond core drilling, approximately 52% of the 30,000m planned for 2022. Thus far, drilling has occurred around the area called Jeff North, Scarlet Ridge and now, at TV. At present, four drills are fully operational and drill production is on track to reach Eskay’s aggressive goal of 30,000 m.

Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (KNDI)
The shift towards off-road vehicles accelerates

Kandi Technologies Group, Inc. (KNDI), headquartered in Jinhua Economic Development Zone, Zhejiang Province, is engaged in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of various vehicular products. Kandi conducts its primary business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zhejiang Kandi Technologies Group Co., Ltd. (“Zhejiang Kandi Technologies”), formerly, Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co., Ltd.) and its subsidiaries including Zhejiang Kandi Smart Battery Swap Technology Co., Ltd, and SC Autosports, LLC (d/b/a Kandi America), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Kandi in the United States, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kandi America Investment, LLC. Zhejiang Kandi Technologies has established itself as one of China’s leading manufacturers of pure electric vehicle parts and off-road vehicles.

Michael Heim, CFA, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Off-road vehicle sales rose 80% as the company continues to shift towards golf carts, go-karts, and ATVS. Off-road vehicle sales carry higher gross margins (10-15%) than other businesses. Management indicates that crossover golf carts delivered from the factory have increased from dozens in March 2022 to more than 2,000/month. Management believes the off-road market could be a $2.2 billion market by 2028, demonstrating 19% annual growth. Kandi plans on introducing new models this fall to stay ahead of demand. Battery sales (following an acquisition earlier this year) were also strong and contributing to profitability. 

Kandi is deemphasizing the electric vehicle market and seeing a slow down in scooters/bikes. Management continues to believe the EV market is currently too competitive stating that competitors are losing up to $10,000/vehicle to gain market share. Scooters/bikes sales, which were especially strong during COVID, declined 90% year over year as demand for the product drops….

Sowing the Seeds for a Successful Drilling Program

Mark Reichman, Senior Research Analyst, Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Geological mapping update. As a follow up to our note published on July 27, geological mapping at the company’s porphyry copper-gold target Tatasham is expected to be completed in the next few weeks. The second phase of mapping at the company’s porphyry copper-gold Awacha target is planned to start by the end of August.

Excitement builds around Tatasham and Awacha. The geological mapping program, under the guidance of Dr. Steve Garwin, Senior Technical Advisor, employs the Anaconda mapping method to define drill targets at Tatasham and Awacha. The Anaconda method owes its name to Anaconda Copper where it was developed in the 1960s and 1970s and was instrumental in the discovery and resource expansion of several porphyry copper-gold deposits, including the Alpala deposit in the the Cascabel concession in Ecuador, and the Cortadera deposit in Chile. In our view, the comprehensive mapping program should support a productive drilling program and enhance the probability of successful outcomes….

More Records. ISG announced revenue of $70.7 million for the second quarter, flat with the $70.6 million in the year ago period. On a constant currency basis, revenue rose 5%. The quarter had record net income of $5.0 million, or $0.10 fully diluted EPS, versus $4.1 million and $0.08 the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA also was a record at $10.7 million, a 10% increase year-over-year.

Quarterly Drivers. Revenue was negatively impacted by a higher forex headwind than anticipated. In addition, the completion of a large Automation contract and relatively soft environment in the vertical negatively impacted overall revenue. Nonetheless, ISG continues to see growing demand for specialized services like cybersecurity, data analytics, application development, and technology modernization as well as an increased focus from clients on cost optimization….

Gevo (GEVO) – Management makes case that market is bigger than expected

Gevo (GEVO)
Management makes case that market is bigger than expected

Gevo’s mission is to transform renewable energy and carbon into energy-dense liquid hydrocarbons. These liquid hydrocarbons can be used for drop-in transportation fuels such as gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel, that when burned have potential to yield net-zero greenhouse gas emissions when measured across the full lifecycle of the products. Gevo uses low-carbon renewable resource-based carbohydrates as raw materials, and is in an advanced state of developing renewable electricity and renewable natural gas for use in production processes, resulting in low-carbon fuels with substantially reduced carbon intensity (the level of greenhouse gas emissions compared to standard petroleum fossil-based fuels across their lifecycle). Gevo’s products perform as well or better than traditional fossil-based fuels in infrastructure and engines, but with substantially reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to addressing the problems of fuels, Gevo’s technology also enables certain plastics, such as polyester, to be made with more sustainable ingredients. Gevo’s ability to penetrate the growing low-carbon fuels market depends on the price of oil and the value of abating carbon emissions that would otherwise increase greenhouse gas emissions. Gevo believes that its proven, patented, technology enabling the use of a variety of low-carbon sustainable feedstocks to produce price-competitive low carbon products such as gasoline components, jet fuel, and diesel fuel yields the potential to generate project and corporate returns that justify the build-out of a multi-billion-dollar business.

Michael Heim, CFA, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Gevo reported 2022-2Q results generally in line with expectations. Revenues are modest ($0.1m vs. $0.3m and our $1.0m est.). Operating costs have become more stable and predictable leading to steady EBITDA losses ($11.0m vs. $17.2m and our $11.4m est.). Net losses met expectations ($16.1m or $0.06 p/s vs. $19.1m or $0.09 p/s and our $14.0m or $0.06 p/s). The real story, however, is not near-term results but plant developments, financing, and contract signings.

Gevo was active in all aspects of the business. The company signed five new take-or-pay jet fuel contracts and now totals 350m gal./year or $2.2 billion. This is more contracted outtake than the projected NZ1 plant production. Management’s vision is to use NZ1 to demonstrate economics but has a clear eye on replicating the project. In fact, it plans to continue to sign contracts for production beyond 2027. Speaking of NZ1, Gevo has recently purchased land for the plant and says it is on schedule for a 2025 start-up….

We had forecast adjusted EPS of $0.44.

Forex, Economic Conditions Restrain Growth. Slower economic growth, increased inflation, and unfavorable foreign currency impacts resulted in a more challenging quarter than anticipated. Adverse foreign exchange reduced sales by $23.6 million in the quarter, while a lack of computer chips resulted in lower sales of gaming accessories. Operating income benefited from $9.4 million of contingent earnout income related to the PowerA acquisition….

Pyxis Tankers (PXS)
Outstanding quarter shows sensitivity to shipping rates

We currently own a modern fleet of five tankers engaged in seaborne transportation of refined petroleum products and other bulk liquids. We are focused on growing our fleet of medium range product tankers, which provide operational flexibility and enhanced earnings potential due to their “eco” features and modifications. We are positioned to opportunistically expand and maximize our fleet due to competitive cost structure, strong customer relationships and an experienced management team whose interests are aligned with those of its shareholders. For more information, visit: http://www.pyxistankers.com.

Michael Heim, CFA, Senior Research Analyst, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Pyxis reported strong top-line results due to higher shipping rates. Results carried through to earnings. Pyxis reported 2022-2Q net revenues of $16.1 million vs. $7.7 million for the same period last year as higher energy prices and a disruption in global oil flow routes due to the Russia/Ukraine war resulted in higher tanker shipping rates. The average TCE rate for the quarter was $21,070 vs. $12,280 and could go higher in the third quarter with 57% of capacity fixed at $30,500. Meanwhile, operating costs per day declined to $6,181 from $6,697 leading to net income of $4.6 million or $0.38 per diluted versus ($1.4 million) or ($0.16 per share).

Cash flow is strong and the balance sheet is reasonable. Adjusted EBITDA was $7.3 million up from $0.4 million. The company’s cash position has grown to $6.2 million with $73.8 million in debt. Debt represents approximately 60% of capitalization (net debt is 55%). Debt is well supported by a increasingly more valuable asset base. Financing costs are an average 4.6%. The utilization rate for the quarter was 98%, a large improvement above first quarter rates of 74% that suffered from the accidental grounding of a tanker….

2Q Reported With Product Milestones Ahead.  Tonix reported a loss of $27.4 million or $(1.22) per share compared with our estimated loss of $26.9 million or $(1.43) per share.  During the quarter the company raised $28.5 million in a private placement, ending with $145.5 million in cash on June 30.

Monkeypox Program Has Become A New Focus.  Tonix announced that it formed a collaboration with the Kenya Medical Research Institute for a Phase 1 trial to start in 1H2023.   Tonix has been developing TNX-801, a vaccine that has been shown to be effective against both smallpox and monkeypox in preclinical testing with non-human primates.  We have always seen the potential for TNX-801 as an improved smallpox vaccine that would be sold to the US government stockpile for use defense against bioterrorism.  Since Monkeypox has been declared a public health emergency, monkeypox prevention could bring additional sales beyond our estimates….

Research, News, and Market Data on V2X

Company Release – 
8/9/2022

  • Establishing second-half 2022 guidance for V2X that reflects the contributions of both Vectrus and Vertex with a total revenue range of $1.90 to $1.94 billion, an Adjusted EBITDA1 range of $140 to $150 million, and an operating cash flow range of $130 to $150 million

MCLEAN, Va., Aug. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — V2X, Inc. (NYSE:VVX) announced second quarter 2022 financial results. The second quarter 2022 results are based on Vectrus’ stand-alone financial metrics for the period ended July 1, 2022, and do not include contribution from The Vertex Company.

V2X (PRNewsfoto/V2X, Inc.)

Transaction
Update

“We’re excited to announce the successful combination of Vectrus and The Vertex Company, creating a larger, higher margin and more diversified, V2X,” said Chuck Prow, Chief Executive Officer of V2X.  “With 14,000 employees, $3.6 billion in pro forma annual revenue, and $290 million of Adjusted EBITDA, V2X is a leader in the operational segment of the federal services market providing converged solutions throughout the mission lifecycle of our clients most critical and enduring global missions.”

Prow continued, “V2X has a strong financial profile with significant free cash flow and long-term revenue visibility through several notable contract wins that are in the early stages of their lifecycle. These wins are reflected in the company’s trailing twelve-month awards of approximately $6 billion, which include two recent significant awards at Vertex, the Naval Test Wing Atlantic, a seven-year program valued at $850 million, and the Air Force Global Strike Command five-year contract valued at $130 million. This also includes $600 million of awards booked at Vectrus during the quarter that were driven by expansion and increased scope on existing programs as well as follow-on contracts. The strong velocity of awards has resulted in a significant backlog of approximately $12 billion that provides solid visibility over the next several years.”

“In summary, the financial and strategic attributes of V2X are compelling,” added Prow. “Our integration activities are well underway and the commitment to our clients, the missions we are privileged to support, and delivering results remains our focus.”

Vectrus
Second Quarter Results

“Second quarter results for stand-alone Vectrus were strong, propelled by top-line performance and favorable operating cash flow,” said Prow.  “During the quarter, revenue grew 6% year-over-year and 9% sequentially to $498 million. Revenue growth was driven by building on the momentum of programs in INDOPACOM and Europe, along with successful phase-in of new contracts, including the Logistics Readiness Center at Fort Benning,” said Prow.  “Each day, our global team of dedicated employees execute on our core programs while also bringing innovation and technology-oriented solutions to complex challenges throughout the mission lifecycle.”  

“With a high-level readiness to meet the needs of our clients, the team continued its support of several important missions during the quarter, including providing the DoD with urgent and compelling services for the European Deterrence Initiative,” said Prow. “We leveraged our rapid response capability and over 40-year history of operating in Europe to provide the DoD with unique services in support of this complex and ongoing mission. Additionally, achieving full operational capability on LOGCAP V Kwajalein, approximately a month and a half ahead of schedule, has helped to expand our footprint in the INDOPACOM region. Activity in the region remains robust and our position continues to expand. For example, we recently expanded our scope of responsibilities at Subic Bay in the Philippines.  This program is expected to run over the next eight years and provides strategic logistics services to the DoD.  Work content in the INDOPACOM region now represents 9% of total revenue, up 3% from last year, and positions us well to support the DoD in a full range of operations over the next ten years.”

“Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was strong at $24.7 million or 5.0% margin.  Adjusted EBITDA increased sequentially $6.5 million and was driven by higher revenue volume and success on operational excellence initiatives.  We remain focused on margin improvement, and this quarter’s results reflect our ability to expand earnings even as we execute on several programs in the early phases of period of performance. As we have noted in the past, LOGCAP V is generating higher revenue volume with a greater amount of material and pass-through content that has a different margin complexion. However, our teams are focused on driving program efficiencies and improving margin rates through contract add-on work while working with clients to convert certain components of work to more advantageous contract structures.”

Prow concluded, “Our second quarter results demonstrate the Company’s success in achieving top-line growth through increased work scope on existing programs, expansion of capabilities, broadening our geographic footprint, and adding new clients.  As we embark on the Company’s new chapter as V2X, I am excited about the greater scale, market leadership, and enhanced portfolio of offerings with the Vectrus/Vertex combination.”

Second quarter 2022 revenue of $498.1 million was up $27.2 million year on year.  “Revenue grew 6% year-over-year, driven by our transition to full operational capability on LOGCAP V programs in Iraq and Kuwait late last year, and INDOPACOM this year. In addition, revenue benefitted from transitioning Fort Benning and volume associated with rapid response and contingency efforts,” said Susan Lynch, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “This revenue growth demonstrates achievement of our enterprise goal of growing the business through contract expansion and portfolio diversity despite the headwinds associated with the withdrawal of the US military from Afghanistan,” added Lynch. 

Operating income was $15.0 million or 3.0% margin.  This includes M&A and integration related expenses of $5.9 million and amortization of acquired intangible assets of $2.1 million which were incurred in the quarter.  Adjusted operating income1 was $23.0 million or 4.6% margin, increasing sequentially by $6.4 million and 100 basis points.  Adjusted EBITDA1 was $24.7 million or 5.0% margin, increasing sequentially by $6.5 million and 100 basis points.  Adjusted EBITDA margin compares to $26.6 million or 5.6% in the prior year period. “The year-on-year margin change was influenced by the significant amount of revenue and contracts that are in the early stages of their lifecycle.  In aggregate, on average and over time, we expect to see improvement in the margin profile as we drive operational efficiencies and diversify into higher margin scopes of work,” said Lynch.

Fully diluted EPS for the second quarter of 2022 was $0.88 as compared to $1.35 in the prior year.  Fully diluted EPS in the quarter included the aforementioned M&A and integration related costs.  Adjusted diluted EPS1 was $1.41 in the quarter as compared to $1.52 in the prior year. The year-on-year change in Adjusted diluted EPS1 was primarily due to the above-mentioned change in Adjusted EBITDA1.

Cash generated from operating activities for the quarter was $46.0 million.  Through July 1, 2022, net cash from operating activities was $19.6 million, compared to net cash from operating activities of $14.0 million through the second quarter of 2021. Cash from operating activities through the first half of 2022 was negatively impacted by an approximately $8.0 million repayment of CARES Act tax deferrals and $5.8 million of merger-related payments.

Net debt on July 1, 2022, was $58.4 million, compared to $105.2 million on July 2, 2021.  Total debt on July 1, 2022, was $90.2 million, down $84.8 million from $175.0 million on July 2, 2021. Cash at quarter-end was $35.1 million.  Total consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA1 (total leverage ratio) was 1.09x compared to 1.76x at the same time last year.

Total backlog as of July 1, 2022, was $4.6 billion.  Funded backlog was $1.3 billion. 

V2X

Lynch continued, “We are establishing second half 2022 guidance ranges for V2X, which includes the contribution from both Vectrus and The Vertex Company.”

V2X guidance for the second half (2H) 2022 is as follows:

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

The primary financial performance measures we use to manage our business and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. Management believes that these financial performance measures are the primary drivers for our earnings and net cash from operating activities. Management evaluates its contracts and business performance by focusing on revenue, operating income, and operating margin. Operating income represents revenue less both cost of revenue and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. Cost of revenue consists of labor, subcontracting costs, materials, and an allocation of indirect costs, which includes service center transaction costs. SG&A expenses consist of indirect labor costs (including wages and salaries for executives and administrative personnel), bid and proposal expenses and other general and administrative expenses not allocated to cost of revenue. We define operating margin as operating income divided by revenue.

We manage the nature and amount of costs at the program level, which forms the basis for estimating our total costs and profitability. This is consistent with our approach for managing our business, which begins with management’s assessing the bidding opportunity for each contract and then managing contract profitability throughout the performance period.

In addition to the key performance measures discussed above, we consider adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, and organic revenue to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives. We provide this information to our investors in our earnings releases, presentations, and other disclosures.

Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA margin, and organic revenue, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for operating income, operating margin, net income, and diluted earnings per share as determined in accordance with GAAP.  Definitions and reconciliations of these items are provided below.

  • Adjusted
    operating income
     is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to significant charges or credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items, such as M&A, integration and related costs, LOGCAP V pre-operational legal costs, and amortization of acquired intangible assets that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations.
  • Adjusted
    operating margin
     is defined as adjusted operating income divided by revenue.
  • Adjusted
    net income
     is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, significant charges or credits, and unusual and infrequent non-operating items, such as M&A, integration and related costs, LOGCAP V pre-operational legal costs, and amortization of acquired intangible assets that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations.
  • Adjusted
    diluted earnings per share
     is defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
  • EBITDA is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude depreciation and amortization.
  • Adjusted
    EBITDA
     is defined as EBITDA, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, significant charges or credits and unusual and infrequent non-operating items, such as M&A, integration and related costs, LOGCAP V pre-operational legal costs that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations.
  • EBITDA
    margin
     is defined as EBITDA divided by revenue.
  • Adjusted
    EBITDA margin
     is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.

Release – Comstock Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results



Comstock Announces Second Quarter 2022 Results

Research, News, and Market Data on Comstock Mining

Cellulosic
Breakthrough Unlocks Massive New Feedstock Model for Net Zero Energy
Independence

VIRGINIA
CITY, NEVADA, AUGUST 9, 2022
 – Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” and the “Company”) today announced its recent business development highlights, second quarter 2022 results, and updated outlook.  

Selected Strategic Highlights – Cellulosic Fuels

  • Expanded our leading cellulosic fuels technology portfolio by filing for a new patent covering breakthrough pathways to produce Bioleum a renewable offset for petroleum and multiple drop-in renewable fuels from woody biomass.
  • Filed a preliminary application for a U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) grant opportunity for a pilot scale system to validate enhanced production metrics of purified bio-intermediaries and renewable fuels from woody biomass.
  • Received a notification of “encouragement” from the U.S. Department of Energy for this same grant opportunity.
  • Established strategic collaborations with leading industry partners, including feedstock and offtake relationships, for the development of renewable fuels, from woody biomass, at dramatically improved yield, efficiency, and cost.
  • Advanced the engineering and development of our cellulosic fuel demonstration facility.

Selected Strategic Highlights – Lithium Extraction
and Electrification Products

  • Commissioned our proprietarylithium-ion battery (“LIB”) pilot crushing, separation, and conditioning system.
  • Enhanced the design and commenced upgrades on our proprietary LIB pilot crushing and separation system.
  • Completed construction of our prototype lithium extraction system in our R&D facility and commenced testing.
  • Advanced permitting for our state-of-the-art battery metal recycling facility in Nevada.
  • Production of high-purity black mass to commence in our battery metal recycling facility by Q2 2023.
  • Production of battery grade lithium carbonate to commence in our battery metal recycling facility by Q3 2023.

Selected Financial Highlights

  • Total assets were $117,826,063 as of June 30, 2022, as compared to $115,119,393 at March 31, 2022.
  • Operating expenses were $5,896,617 for the second quarter 2022, including selling, general and administrative expenses of $2,508,573 and research and development expenses of $2,579,150, and depreciation of $808,894.
  • Second quarter 2022 net loss was $13,766,846 or $(0.20) per share, as compared to second quarter 2021 net loss of $6,320,992 or $(0.15) per share. The 2022 results were primarily driven by increases in research and development expenditures and changes in fair values of derivatives.
  • Advanced non-strategic asset monetization efforts with asset sales proceeds expected at $20 million. 
  • Debt was $4,572,356 on June 30, 2022, net of discount, representing an unsecured promissory note.
  • Cash and cash equivalents were $4,345,315 on June 30, 2022.
  • Outstanding common shares were 76,822,049 at June 30, 2022, and 78,737,632 at August 8, 2022.

“Our financial results reflect the impact of our continued investment in the research, development and commercialization of our renewable energy businesses,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Comstock’s executive chairman and chief executive officer. “The building and operating of these proprietary demonstration systems are critical prerequisites for full scale commercialization.”

Cellulosic Fuels

The Company recently announced a significant expansion of its leading cellulosic technology portfolio by filing for a new patent covering breakthrough pathways to produce renewable diesel, sustainable aviation fuel (“SAF”) gasoline and marine fuel from woody biomass, at dramatically improved yield, efficiency, and cost in comparison to all known methods.

Renewable fuels provide a critical opportunity for decarbonization, however, most of the existing U.S. renewable fuel refineries draw from the same limited pool of constrained feedstocks. Comstock’s plans to decarbonize with renewable fuels involves abundant feedstocks that are not used today, enabling a vast untapped energy source with superior benefits. 

“Our new patent covers processes and compositions that have been validated at our existing two ton per day cellulosic fuels pilot facility, verifying that we can simultaneously produce multiple purified biointermediates that are uniquely isolated and free of the contaminants that have frustrated prior attempts at commercializing cellulosic fuel technologies,” added De Gasperis.

Based on current data, Comstock projects best-in-class renewable yields exceeding 80 gallons per dry ton of woody biomass (on a gasoline gallon equivalent basis), with lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions reductions exceeding 80% over petroleum.

The Company is currently expanding its existing cellulosic demonstration systems to include the production of Bioleum™ and expects these demonstration systems to add to our existing capabilities for producing carbon-neutral pulps, cellulosic sugar and cellulosic ethanol.  The expansion into Bioleum™ will demonstrate the full capability of producing these bio-intermediaries suitable for the production of renewable diesel, marine, SAF and gasoline from woody biomass.

The Company recently submitted a preliminary grant application to the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) entitled “Production of Renewable Diesel,
Sustainable Aviation Fuel, Gasoline, and Marine Fuel from Lignocellulosic
Biomass at Dramatically Improved Yield, Efficiency, and Cost” 
and received a DOE notification of encouragement to apply for this funding opportunity, reflecting positively on the Company technology readiness and the strength of its collaboration partners.

De Gasperis continued, “The existing U.S. biorefining capacity is far greater than current feedstocks can support, and the DOE clearly recognizes the need for expanded feedstocks. We believe that our expanded technology solutions, and the magnitude of feedstocks that they enable, unblock one of the most critical supply chain constraints across the U.S. and global markets.”

Electrification Products

The Company completed construction and initial commissioning of its breakthrough LIB crushing, separating, and conditioning process during the second quarter, successfully confirming the production of highly concentrated “black mass.”

“We have successfully developed a proprietary system that produces a novel and pure black mass, further positioning us for high efficiency metals extraction, starting with lithium,” said Mr. De Gasperis. “Our team is enhancing the pilot system for deployment in Nevada where we will ultimately integrate our black mass production and lithium extraction process in 2023.”  

The Company expects to receive its main operating permit during the fourth quarter of 2022 and complete the submission of its modified air quality permits for our LIB processes at our state-of-the-art, battery metal recycling facility in the third quarter.

“The cleaning and repairs of our facility in Nevada are near complete and truly look outstanding.  The facility can now be readied for the receipt and installations of pilot and demonstration units for crushing, separating and conditioning of our novel black mass and subsequently, our lithium extraction, while the permitting process continues” concluded Mr. De Gasperis.

Corporate

Cash and cash equivalents were $4,345,315 on June 30, 2022. The Company expects over $20 million in proceeds over the next two quarters from the sale of its non-mining properties, non-strategic investments, and collection of advances receivable, including the Daney Ranch for $2.5 million, net, and proceeds from Sierra Springs Opportunity Fund totaling over $18 million.

Management Comment

Commenting on the second quarter of 2022 and recent corporate events, Dr. Patrick R. Gruber, Gevo’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Given our continued success in securing SAF supply agreements as well as the additional interest that we are witnessing in the marketplace, there should not be any question about the potential size of the market for renewable fuels. The opportunities in front of us over the next decade and beyond are large and rapidly growing. Our goal is to build SAF production capacity at a rate that will establish Gevo and its partners as a market leader and powerhouse in the renewable fuels sector. It all starts with NZ1, the engineering and design is going well. Based on what we see today we expect to stay on schedule for the 2025 start-up.” Dr. Gruber also remarked that, “Gevo’s RNG project continues to ramp to nameplate capacity of 355,000 MMBtu. All three dairies are now producing biogas which is then upgraded and injected into the sales pipeline. That RNG is sold into the California market by our marketing partner, BP. We continue to collect the performance data for our application to the California Air Resource Board to receive LCFS credits and the Renewable Fuel Standard Program for RINs.”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial
Results

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we sold 9 thousand gallons of SAF, isooctane, and isooctene from our Luverne Facility. Revenue decreased $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, due to the Luverne Facility being operated for the Company’s development projects on a as needed basis.

Cost of goods increased $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in direct labor and utility expenses as the Luverne Facility was not fully staffed during the second quarter of 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The majority of our costs are related to the production of SAF, isooctane, and isooctene as we continue to develop and tailor our Luverne Facility demonstration operations to support our focus on advancing technology, testing and optimizing alternative feedstocks, yeast strains, and unit operations as well as partnership development for integrated GHG reductions. Cost of goods sold also includes a $2.1 million net realizable gain adjustment made to our finished goods and work in process inventory. There were no inventory net realizable value adjustments recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2021, as the Luverne Facility was temporarily shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Research and development expense increased $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase of laboratory expenses and additional stock-based compensation expense.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $4.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to increases in personnel costs related to strategic new hiring, stock-based compensation, and professional fees.

Preliminary stage project costs are related to our Verity and future Net-Zero Projects and consist primarily of employee expenses and consulting costs. Preliminary stage project costs decreased $5.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily because we began capitalizing our RNG and NZ1 project costs in 2021.

Other operations expense increased $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily related to unallocated engineering and consulting services.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the amortization of our patents.

We incurred no gain (loss) from the change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liability in the three months ended June 30, 2022. The last of the liability warrants expired in February 2022.

There were no significant changes in interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest and dividend income increased $0.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to the interest earned on our investments partially offset by the amortization of the bond premiums.

Other income (expense) increased $2.7 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to our receipt of $2.9 million from the US Department of Agriculture’s Biofuel Producer Program to support biofuel producers who faced unexpected losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Biofuel Producer Program grants are not tax-exempt.

Non-GAAP cash EBITDA loss3 in the three months ended June 30, 2022, was $(11.0) million, compared with a $(17.2) million non-GAAP cash EBITDA loss in the same period in 2021.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used for operating activities was $17.1 million compared to $19.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The $2.4 million decrease was primarily due to increased costs associated with our production of isobutanol and hydrocarbon products for market development, process technology and related process engineering work. In addition, we had increases in personnel expenses to support the growth in business activity, partnership development and Verity development expenses.

About Gevo

Gevo’s mission is to transform renewable energy and carbon into energy-dense liquid hydrocarbons. These liquid hydrocarbons can be used for drop-in transportation fuels such as gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel fuel, that when burned have potential to yield net-zero greenhouse gas emissions when measured across the full lifecycle of the products. Gevo uses low-carbon renewable resource-based carbohydrates as raw materials, and is in an advanced state of developing renewable electricity and renewable natural gas for use in production processes, resulting in low-carbon fuels with substantially reduced carbon intensity (the level of greenhouse gas emissions compared to standard petroleum fossil-based fuels across their lifecycle). Gevo’s products perform as well or better than traditional fossil-based fuels in infrastructure and engines, but with substantially reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to addressing the problems of fuels, Gevo’s technology also enables certain plastics, such as polyester, to be made with more sustainable ingredients. Gevo’s ability to penetrate the growing low-carbon fuels market depends on the price of oil and the value of abating carbon emissions that would otherwise increase greenhouse gas emissions. Gevo believes that it possesses the technology and know-how to convert various carbohydrate feedstocks through a fermentation process into alcohols and then transform the alcohols into renewable fuels and materials, through a combination of its own technology, know-how, engineering, and licensing of technology and engineering from Axens North America, Inc., which yields the potential to generate project and corporate returns that justify the build-out of a multi-billion-dollar business.

Gevo believes that Argonne National Laboratory GREET model is the best available standard of scientific based measurement for life cycle inventory or LCI.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this press release may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements relate to a variety of matters, including, without limitation, whether our fuel sales agreements are financeable, the timing of our Net-Zero 1 project, our financial condition, our results of operation and liquidity, our business development activities, our Net-Zero Projects, our RNG Project, our fuel sales agreements, our plans to develop our business, our ability to successfully develop, construct and finance our operations and growth projects, our ability to achieve cash flow from our planned projects, the ability of our products to contribute to lower greenhouse gas emissions, particulate and sulfur pollution, and other statements that are not purely statements of historical fact These forward-looking statements are made based on the current beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the management of Gevo and are subject to significant risks and uncertainty. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Gevo undertakes no obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although Gevo believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements involve many risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from what may be expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. For a further discussion of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, as well as risks relating to the business of Gevo in general, see the risk disclosures in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Gevo for the year ended December 31, 2021 and in subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K and other filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by Gevo.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This press release contains financial measures that do not comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), including non-GAAP cash EBITDA loss, non-GAAP adjusted net loss and non-GAAP adjusted net loss per share. Non-GAAP cash EBITDA loss excludes depreciation and amortization and non-cash stock-based compensation from GAAP loss from operations. Non-GAAP adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share exclude non-cash gains and/or losses recognized in the quarter due to the changes in the fair value of certain of Gevo’s financial instruments, such as warrants, convertible debt and embedded derivatives, from GAAP net loss. Management believes these measures are useful to supplement its GAAP financial statements with this non-GAAP information because management uses such information internally for its operating, budgeting and financial planning purposes. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to Gevo’s historical performance as well as comparisons to the operating results of other companies. In addition, Gevo believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency into the indicators used by management as a basis for its financial and operational decision making. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and therefore, should only be read in conjunction with financial information reported under U.S. GAAP when understanding Gevo’s operating performance. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided in the financial statement tables below.

1Cash EBITDA
loss is a non-GAAP measure calculated by adding back depreciation and
amortization and non-cash stock-based compensation to GAAP loss from
operations. A reconciliation of cash EBITDA loss to GAAP loss from operations
is provided in the financial statement tables following this release.

2Adjusted net loss per share is a non-GAAP measure calculated by
adding back non-cash gains and/or losses recognized in the quarter due to the
changes in the fair value of certain of our financial instruments, such as warrants,
convertible debt and embedded derivatives, to GAAP net loss per share. A
reconciliation of adjusted net loss per share to GAAP net loss per share is
provided in the financial statement tables following this release.

3 Cash EBITDA loss is a non-GAAP measure calculated by adding
back depreciation and amortization and non-cash stock compensation to GAAP loss
from operations. A reconciliation of cash EBITDA loss to GAAP loss from
operations is provided in the financial statement tables following this release.
