Global Atomic Announces Q3 2025 Results

TORONTO, Nov. 12, 2025 /CNW/ - Global Atomic Corporation ("Global Atomic" or the "Company"), (TSX: GLO) (OTCQX: GLATF) (FRANKFURT: G12) announced today its operating and financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.  For more detail, please refer to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, on the Company's website at www.globalatomiccorp.com.

Stephen G. Roman, President & CEO of Global Atomic, commented, "During the third quarter of 2025, we made significant progress on site earthworks and civil works for the foundations of the processing plant at the Dasa Project.  In addition, we continued to move closer to obtaining necessary approvals for the financing required to complete the Dasa Project."

"We're pleased that our meetings with the U.S. development bank have continued through the U.S. Government shutdown.  Those meetings have been focused on completing the bank's internal process to prepare for their Credit Committee's review and approval of our Dasa Project.  Similarly, we have continued meeting with a potential JV partner regarding a project level minority joint venture investment into our SOMIDA subsidiary in Niger."

"Until we obtain a commitment for funding the remaining capital to develop Dasa, we will manage capital spending to conserve cash while maintaining key parameters on the Project's critical path for completion."

OUTLOOK

Dasa Uranium Project

• The Company remains actively engaged with a U.S. Development Bank to establish a debt facility from which the Company could draw funds to finance up to 60% of Dasa's development costs.
• The U.S. Development Bank has confirmed that their internal process to present and finalize the review of the Dasa Project loan to its Credit Committee is nearing completion.
• If approved by the Credit Committee, the Dasa Project loan will then move to the Investment Committee and then the Board of Directors for final approval. We understand the US Development Bank is working to a year-end approval timeline.
• While working toward completion of the debt facility, the Company is also in active discussions regarding a minority project level investment, representing a potential alternative to finance the Dasa Project. Any such investment would be based on the intrinsic value of the Dasa Project as per the Company's 2024 Feasibility Study plus investments made by the Company to advance the Project since that Study, and not the current price of the Company's shares.
• The Company is also pursuing other non-equity funding options.
• The Company continues to manage its capital spending at the Dasa Project and subsequent to Q3 2025 completed a$37.1 million equity offering which will provide additional time to finalize project financing on terms best suited to the Company while continuing to advance the Dasa Project.

Turkish Zinc Joint-Venture

• Higher zinc prices, improved availability of the joint-venture's primary raw material; electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) from area steel mills and lower input costs, are expected to contribute to profitable operations for the balance of 2025.
• Area steel mill productivity has stabilized since the earthquakes in early 2023 and the preceding COVID pandemic.

HIGHLIGHTS

Dasa Uranium Project – Mine Development

• Underground development, underway since November 2022, has ramped down to the third level adjacent to the footwall of the ore zone with development waste being hauled to surface.
• Waste development tonnes brought to surface include medium grade (3,000 to 5,000 ppm), low grade (1,300 to 3,000 ppm) and mineralized waste (240 to 1,300 ppm), all of which can be processed during the commissioning of the plant.
• Ramping and underground level development will continue in order to facilitate stope access on five mining levels in time for commissioning of the processing plant.
• Underground ventilation, electrical services, and water management infrastructure upgrades are being installed in coordination with the deepening of the mine.

Dasa Uranium Project – Plant Construction

• Selection of long-lead equipment is complete. Manufacturing has been completed for many of these components, many of which have been delivered to the Dasa site.
• Our Engineering, Procurement and Contract Management ("EPCM") contractors are completing the final detailed engineering and ordering the remaining components for the Processing Plant.
• The Company continued earth and civil works in Q3 2025 to prepare the site for construction of the Processing Plant. To date, earthworks are largely complete and civil works contractors are currently preparing foundations prior to equipment installation.
• A 90-tonne crane arrived at site in Q3 2025 to facilitate construction and equipment installation.
• The Company has completed the construction of additional housing for employees and construction crews including a new 260-person housing facility. Final testing of electrical and plumbing systems is underway.
• Plant commissioning is subject to the timing of project financing.

Dasa Uranium Project – Niger Government Support

• Continued dialogue with government officials at both the national and regional level have confirmed strong support for the Dasa Project.
• A recent video highlighting development work at Dasa and community engagement was distributed in Niger via social media and national television in early October to help raise awareness with stakeholders. The video was well received in country and is available for viewing on the Company's website.
