Research News and Market Data on LODE

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, January 21, 2026 – Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” and the “Company”) today announced it has received the final $1 million from Mackay Precious Metals Inc. (“Mackay”), completing an agreement to sell its residual 1.5% net smelter returns (“NSR”)  royalty associated with the recently sold northern claim targets to for an  aggregate purchase price of $1.1 million in cash. This transaction increases the total cash proceeds from the sale of those properties, leasehold interests, and royalties to over $4 million in cash.

On June 30, 2023, Comstock executed a Mineral Exploration and Mining Lease Agreement (“Mackay Lease”) with Mackay. The Mackay Lease was terminated on December 18, 2024, in favor of the MIPA. Since June 30, 2023, Comstock received approximately $3.8 million in initial and ongoing lease payments and reimbursed expenses in addition to the over $4 million from the sale of the claims and the residual NSR sale transaction.

“Realizing nearly $8 million in consideration from the previous lease and subsequent sale, plus an additional 240 acres of patented and unpatented mineral and other properties in Lyon County for no additional consideration,  wraps up a series of extremely positive transactions for Comstock and Mackay,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Comstock’s executive chairman and chief executive officer. “The transaction is especially timely, as we actively entertain multiple options for advancing our S-K 1300 compliant Dayton and permitted Lucerne resources.”

Comstock is committed to become a major U.S. silver producer from both the millions of ounces of resources already quantified in our technical reports and our ever-growing solar recycling silver resources.

Release – Comstock Metals Expands Recycling Network – Launches End-of-Life Solar Facility in Ohio

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on LODE

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, January 15, 2026 — Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” or the “Company”) and its subsidiary, Comstock Metals LLC (“Comstock Metals”), a leader in the responsible recycling of end-of-life solar panels and the only certified, zero-landfill solar recycling solution in North America, today announced that it has secured an additional site for storage that is expandable into an industry-scale recycling and processing facility.

This Ohio location strengthens Comstock Metals’ growing national recycling network and is strategically positioned to serve customers throughout Ohio and the broader Midwest—one of the larger and centrally located solar markets in the country. The site will function as a centralized hub for the collection, preparation, storage, and aggregation of decommissioned photovoltaic (PV) solar panels that will ultimately expand into processing as the market grows.

As solar deployment continues to expand across Ohio and neighboring states, the demand for compliant, environmentally responsible end-of-life solutions is accelerating. The central Ohio facility is designed to directly support solar manufacturers, developers, utilities, engineering and construction firms (EPCs), installers, decommissioners and asset owners by providing a local, reliable solution for managing retired solar panels, where valuable materials, including aluminum, silver, copper, gallium, and other metals are recovered and repurposed.

“Establishing a facility in central Ohio allows us to directly support the Midwest region’s growing end-of-life panel disposal needs while providing a logistically-efficient solution that keeps costs low for our customers,” said Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, President of Comstock Metals. “Our mission is to close the loop on solar energy by ensuring panels at the end of their useful life are managed responsibly and their critical materials are fully repurposed.”

By enabling timely, efficient, and compliant decommissioning, transport, and recycling, Comstock’s zero-landfill solution reduces landfill waste, conserves natural resources and supports the industry’s long-term sustainability. The Company is also finalizing the permit application and subsequent submission plans for its second, integrated, industry-scale Nevada location, with final selection of a location to take place later this year.

“As the volume of end-of-life solar panels expands across the country and grows into the tens and hundreds of millions, our ability to scale responsibly and efficiently across the country, delivers real sustainability—and peace of mind—to our customers and partners,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Executive Chairman and CEO of Comstock. “Our team is setting the standard for solar panel recycling across an expanding, fully integrated national network.”

As solar energy adoption continues to grow across the western United States, the need for compliant and environmentally responsible end-of-life solutions is critical. Comstock Metals’ California facility is designed to directly support solar developers, utilities, installers, and asset owners by providing a centralized location for the safe handling, consolidation, and logistics coordination of retired solar panels.

Comstock Metals’ California facility can now optimize network logistics and costs for the western U.S. and:

  • Enable direct support for solar asset owners, developers, EPCs, and installers;
  • Enhance our ability to rapidly and fully respond to customer needs;
  • Facilitate decommissioning efforts by providing a “local” base from which to operate;
  • Centralize collection points for end-of-life solar panels in California; and
  • Coordinate all handling, storage, and logistics coordination compliantly.

By enabling reliable, efficient, and compliant interstate transport and recycling, Comstock Metals helps reduce landfill disposal, conserve natural resources, and support the long-term sustainability of the solar industry.

“Our goal is to help close the loop on solar energy by ensuring that panels at the end of their useful life are managed responsibly and the critical minerals and materials are repurposed for productive use,” said Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, President of Comstock Metals. “This facility allows us to directly support California’s clean energy leadership while ensuring materials are transported efficiently to our specialized recycling operations in Nevada.”

The new facility in California accepts end-of-life and decommissioned solar panels from commercial, utility-scale, and other approved sources. Panels received at the site are prepared and optimized for transportation and shipped in accordance with all applicable state and federal regulations to Comstock Metals’ certified recycling facilities in Nevada, where critical materials such as aluminum, silver, copper, gallium, and other metals can be repurposed.

“Comstock Metals is setting the global standard in solar panel recycling by creating a scalable, reliable, efficient, and optimized network of decommissioning, collecting, aggregating, storing and full-recovery processing (and ultimately refining) nodes designed and built for speed and scale,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Executive Chairman and CEO of Comstock. “Most of the industry is still getting their heads around the magnitude of inevitable end of life panels, measured in the tens of millions and then hundreds of millions, and growing, and our demonstrated ability to scale and meet those volumes delivers true sustainability and peace of mind to our customers.”

Release – Comstock Metals Completes All Permits for First of Its Kind Recycling Facility

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on LODE

VIRGINIA CITY, Nev., January 09, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” and the “Company”) and Comstock Metals LLC (“Comstock Metals”), a leader in the responsible recycling of end-of-life solar panels with the only certified, North American, zero-landfill solution, announced today that it has received its Written Determination Permit from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection – Bureau of Sustainable Materials Management (NDEP-BSMM), for the processing of waste solar panels and photovoltaics for its industry-scale materials recovery facility located in Silver Springs, NV. This timely and final required approval results in a fully permitted operation and facility and keeps our scale up plans for commissioning this industry-first, large scale processing facility in Silver Springs, NV, right on schedule.

On January 5, 2026, Comstock Metals received a similar notification of approval for the associated Air Quality control permit. These last two permits, represent the complete scope of required regulatory approvals for commissioning the scale up of a facility designed for processing more than 3 million panels per year from one, continuous production line, representing up to 100,000 tons per year of waste materials being processed. This facility integrates technologies for efficiently crushing, conditioning, extracting, and recycling metal concentrates from photovoltaics. The Company previously ordered all of the equipment and  received deliveries during Q4 2025 and remains on schedule for receiving the rest of the equipment, installing, testing, and commissioning this first of its kind industry-scale facility during the first quarter of 2026.

“We appreciate BSMM’s collaborative engagement in issuing the first industry-scale Written Determination permit for solar panel recycling, a key regulatory milestone that enables Nevada’s only zero-landfill, high-volume, end-of-life solar panel recycling solution serving the broader region,” said Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, President of Comstock Metals. “This authorization aligns with our original permitting timeline and reflects the effectiveness of our regulatory strategy, the strength of our relationships with regulators, and the successful execution of a complex, first-of-its-kind permitting process.”

Many of the U.S. solar panels have been deployed in the southwestern U.S., primarily California, Arizona, and Nevada, with decommissioning of these solar panels occurring now, accelerating supply and increasing the demand for environmentally responsible end-of-life solutions. Comstock has positioned itself to ensure the safe deconstruction and productive reuse of these important materials. Establishing our platform in Nevada establishes the leading solar recycling position over more than half the U.S. market for end-of-life panels and establishes a platform for rapid expansion across the rest of the United States.

“Comstock Metals is setting the global standard in solar panel recycling by creating a scalable, reliable, efficient, and optimized network of decommissioning, collecting, aggregating, storing and full-recovery processing (and ultimately refining) nodes designed and built for speed and scale,” said Corrado De Gasperis, Executive Chairman and CEO of Comstock. “Most of the industry is still getting their heads around the magnitude of inevitable end of life panel dilemma, measured in the billions of panels, while we deploy and deliver a full end of life solution.”

Comstock (LODE) – Rating Lowered to Market Perform from Outperform

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

Rating Lowered to Market Perform. While we had upgraded Comstock Inc. to Outperform on November 4, we have concluded our rating upgrade may have been too early, despite the share price appreciating ~33% from the date of our upgrade. It appears the company’s near-term capital needs remain significant, and we will reassess the value of the company’s businesses, once Comstock’s commercial scale recycling facility is operational and plans for the company’s mining assets are more fully realized. Moreover, we have been frustrated by the company’s promises to monetize non-core assets, including properties in Silver Springs, Nevada, without following through on its commitment. At this stage, we consider Comstock’s investment in Bioleum Corporation as a call option on its growth and success, which is subject to significant risk factors.

At the market offering. Comstock Inc. recently executed an At-the-Market Offering Agreement with Titan Partners Group LLC to offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time totaling up to $100.0 million. Titan Partners will be compensated at a commission rate equal to 3.0% of the gross sales price per share. Net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures associated with commercializing subsequent industry scale and storage facilities for Comstock Metals, in addition to acquisitions, and technical, operational and human resource development expenses for supporting growth. Beyond acting as a headwind for capital appreciation, the ATM equity issuance could promote shareholder dilution.

Bioleum Expands Feedstock Capabilities with Hexas Acquisition. Bioleum Corporation, of which Comstock is a strategic investor, acquired Hexas Biomass Inc. for approximately $6.5 million in stock, cash, and convertible debt, securing ownership of all Hexas intellectual property and associated high-yield energy crop technologies. Hexas’ crops deliver 25–30 dry metric tons per acre, above conventional forestry yields, and can be cultivated on marginal lands without competing with food production. When paired with Bioleum’s refining platform, these crops enable production of more than 100 barrels of biofuel per acre per year, strengthening long-term supply certainty and improving economics for Bioleum’s facilities.

Strategic Value of an Integrated Feedstock Model. Bioleum expects Hexas’ scalable, low-cost feedstock model to “anchor” each refinery deployment, reducing regional biomass variability and improving reliability, pricing, and throughput across its system. Management emphasized that pairing purpose-grown crops with Bioleum’s refining technology materially improves risk-adjusted economics across future projects and accelerates commercialization.

Release – Bioleum Corporation Acquires Hexas Biomass Inc.

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on LODE

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, December 8, 2025 – Comstock Inc. (NYSE American: LODE, the “Company”) today announced that one of its strategic investees, Bioleum Corporation (“Bioleum”), acquired Hexas Biomass Inc. (“Hexas”), a global leader in the development and deployment of purpose grown energy crops and biomaterials, including all of its intellectual properties and certain liabilities, in exchange for a purchase price of approximately $6.5 million comprised of approximately $3.5 million paid with 146,637 shares of Bioleum common stock at $24 per share, $500,000 in five annual cash payments of $100,000 each, commencing at closing, and $2.5 million of convertible debt, redeemable with cash payments payable from 5% of Hexas’ aggregate revenues or convertible into Bioleum common stock, also at a conversion  price of $24 per share.

Hexas has developed a portfolio of proprietary intellectual properties for the propagation, production, harvesting, and processing of purpose grown crops with proven annual yields exceeding 25 to 30 dry metric tons per acre, or about 4 to 7 times the yields of traditional forestry species. Hexas’ crops are specifically designed to thrive in diverse environments, including marginal and underutilized lands. These crops enhance agricultural ecosystem without disrupting or competing with food production.

The combination of Bioleum’s high yield refining platform and Hexas’ high yield purpose grown crops enables the production of over 100 barrels of biofuel per acre of biomass production per year. For comparison, producers of soy and corn only net about 2 and 10 barrels of biofuel per acre per year, respectively. The production of Hexas’ purpose grown crops transforms marginal agricultural lands into perpetual “drop-in sedimentary oilfields” with the potential to dramatically boost domestic energy independence and expand rural economies using regenerative agricultural practices.

“Hexas was founded to make the highest and best use of natural resources by providing industries with access to abundant, carbon negative, and ecologically positive feedstocks,” said Wendy Owens, Hexas’ founder and chief executive officer. “Bioleum’s acquisition will help us to execute on that vision by accelerating commercialization and global deployment of our technologies in biofuels and multiple other biobased applications. We are very excited to continue our established track record of bioproducts leadership as we join Bioleum’s integrated system and growing team.”

“Incorporating a proprietary low-cost feedstock model into our system provides unprecedented benefits for our refining solutions and targeted supply chain partners,” added Kevin Kreisler, Bioleum’s chief executive officer. “While our solutions are designed to process most known forms of lignocellulosic biomass, the Hexas technologies will allow us to enhance, supplement, and/or dramatically expand locally available biomass by “anchoring” each of our owned and licensed refineries with a dedicated, perpetual feedstock supply, ensuring the reliability, consistency, scale, and pricing needed to minimize risk and maximize profitability.”

The U.S. DOE has previously estimated that America can produce over of one billion tons per year of waste wood and other forms of biomass for conversion into transportation fuels. That’s enough to produce more than 3 billion barrels of fuel per year with Bioleum’s refining solutions, but much of this biomass is widely dispersed and subject to regulatory, collection, and other sources of regional variability. Converting just 40 million underutilized acres of non-food producing land into profitable purpose grown biomass farms with Hexas’ high yield crops could provide enough feedstock to double that output while decreasing variability and risk for new renewable fuel projects.

Kreisler concluded, “Our ambition is to build shareholder value by systemically empowering agricultural, forestry, pulp and paper, renewable fuels, petroleum, energy, and mobility stakeholders to license and deploy our solutions across their respective industries at speeds that are far greater than Bioleum, or any other company, could ever achieve on its own. We are laser focused on developing, deploying, and enabling that system, and we couldn’t be more excited to complete this transaction.”

As part of Bioleum’s system, Hexas will continue servicing customers worldwide in the energy, including biofuels, structural and non-structural products sectors by supplying XanoFiber™ (and other purpose grown biomass from its proprietary giant grasses) to them as a low-cost, drop-in ready, reliable supply of biomass. Owens will continue to run Hexas as its president.

Final Permitting Pathway for Industrial-Scale Facility. Comstock Metals received eligibility for its Air Quality Permit from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP), completing the major regulatory requirements needed to commission its 100,000-ton-per-year solar panel recycling facility in Silver Springs, Nevada. The approval keeps commissioning on track for the first quarter of 2026, with equipment deliveries expected before year-end. The facility is designed to process more than three million end-of-life panels annually using Comstock’s certified zero-landfill system that recovers aluminum, glass, silver, and other metals. We expect the facility to begin ramping up operations during the second quarter of 2026.

A Leading U.S. Solar Recycling Platform. This marks the first industrial solar recycling air permit issued in Nevada and reinforces Comstock’s leading position to accommodate a growing national waste stream. With most legacy U.S. solar panels deployed across Nevada, California, and Arizona, the Silver Springs, Nevada hub positions Comstock to serve more than half of the domestic decommissioning market. The Comstock Metals team is evaluating additional processing and storage locations to support broader expansion as panel retirements accelerate.

Air Quality Permit For Its First-Of-A-Kind, Industrial Scale Solar Panel Processing Facility

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, November 24, 2025 — Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock” and the “Company”) and Comstock Metals LLC (“Comstock Metals”), a leader in the responsible recycling of end-of-life solar panels with the only certified, north American, zero-landfill solution, announced today that it has received its notification of eligibility for an Air Quality Permit from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection – Bureau of Air Pollution Control  (NDEP-BAPC), subject to certain normal compliance conditions and public notice periods, for the processing of waste solar panels and photovoltaics for its industry-scale materials recovery facility located in Silver Springs, NV. This timely approval keeps our scale-up plans for commissioning our first industry-scale facility in Silver Springs, NV, right on schedule.

This notification follows the recently received notification of eligibility for a Written Determination Permit from the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection – Bureau of Sustainable Materials Management (NDEP-BSMM), also with the normal conditions and public notice period. These two major permits, once final, represent the complete scope of required regulatory approvals for commissioning the scale up of a facility designed for processing over 3 million panels per year from one, continuous production line, representing up to 100,000 tons per year of waste materials being processed. This facility integrates technologies for efficiently processing, conditioning, extracting, and recycling metal concentrates from photovoltaics. The Company previously reported that the equipment for the plant was ordered, and fabrication is also proceeding as planned with deliveries expected by year end, so that it can commence installation, testing, and commissioning of the industry-scale facility during the first quarter of 2026. The process for both Air and BSMM permits proceeded essentially as planned, since last Spring, when the final forms for both of these permits were submitted.  

“We appreciate BAPC’s collaborative efforts in issuing this first major solar panel recycling Air Quality Permit and enabling the expansion of the only Nevada-based, zero-landfill, end-of-life solar panel solution serving this broad region and keeping these critical materials out of our landfills or from being sent offshore to foreign foundries, basically offshoring the problem,” said Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, President of Comstock Metals. “We are thankful for the strong working collaboration with our regulators and the remarkable support that we are experiencing from the broader community who increasingly understands and appreciates the critical societal value of preventing heavy metal contamination of our lands, water systems and communities.”

Most of the older U.S. solar panels in service have been deployed in the southwestern U.S., primarily California, Arizona, and Nevada, with decommissioning of these solar panels occurring now, accelerating supply and increasing the demand for environmentally responsible end-of-life solutions, negating potential legacy liability faced by our customers should the panels not be 100% recycled. Comstock has positioned itself to ensure the safe deconstruction and productive reuse of these important materials. Establishing our platform in Nevada establishes the leading solar recycling position over more than half the U.S. market for end-of-life panels and establishes a platform for rapid expansion across the rest of the United States.

“We have established both a technological and market leadership position in this rapidly growing end-of-life photovoltaic supply chain,” stated Corrado De Gasperis, Comstock’s Executive Chairman and CEO. “Our metals team is already carefully and strategically assessing additional processing and storage sites as we look to capitalize and expand our platform in this rapidly growing end-of-life environmental dilemma. Comstock Metals is the only zero-landfill, end-of-life solution for these wasted solar panels. We are setting the standard for this entire industry and positioning ourselves for rapid expansions.”
