UPLODE 2024. Comstock Inc. recently hosted its UPLODE24 investor webinar which provided an opportunity to hear directly from business leaders associated with Comstock’s business units, along with Quantum Generative Materials (GenMat). More broadly, the event underscored Comstock Inc.’s unique approach to drive innovation to improve business outcomes and accelerate the commercialization of decarbonization technologies.

Key catalysts in 2024. Investors can look forward to an eventful year in 2024 as Comstock Metals commissions its material recovery facility and begins generating cash flow, along with expanding its supplier commitments. We expect Comstock Fuels will move closer to commercialization as it executes commercial agreements for joint development projects and expands, integrates, and commissions a continuous bio-intermediate production system to produce cellulosic ethanol and hydro-deoxygenated bioleum oil. Additionally, external venture capital funding for Quantum Generative Materials could put a spotlight on the value of Comstock’s investment. Lastly, disposition of Comstock’s remaining Green Li-ion preferred shares and properties in Silver Springs, Nevada could provide proceeds of up to $60 million that could significantly enhance the company’s financial flexibility.

More broadly, the event underscored the value of innovating new break-through technologies to improve business outcomes and accelerate the commercialization of decarbonization technologies.

Bench strength matters. Each of the business unit leaders demonstrated relevant experience and a compelling vision for moving their businesses forward.

UPLODE 2023. Comstock Inc. will host its inaugural UPLODE23 investor summit on June 28 at 11:00 am ET. The registration link is here. In our view, UPLODE23 offers an excellent opportunity to learn more about the company’s business plans for Comstock Fuels, Comstock Metals, Comstock Mining, and Quantum Generative Materials (GenMat), along with respective paths to commercialization. In addition to high level discussions of industry fundamentals for each business and showcasing technologies, we anticipate a detailed review of progress to date and future plans.

Key catalysts in 2023. In our view, executing a license agreement(s) associated with its biorefining technologies and commencing development of commercial scale projects is perhaps the most significant revenue opportunity in 2023. Within its mining segment, Comstock expects to publish preliminary economic assessments for the Lucerne and Dayton resource areas. Additionally, the company expects to advance Comstock Metals’ technology readiness for broader material recycling, including photovoltaics.
