STRONG FUNDAMENTALS, ADAPTIVE TO GLOBAL DISRUPTION

OPTIMIZED CAPITAL STRUCTURE

  • In November 2021, AMG entered into a new $350 million 7-year senior secured term loan B facility ("term loan") and a $200 million 5-year senior secured revolving credit facility ("revolver"). The total facility amount of $550 million replaced AMG's prior credit facility and extended the term loan maturity from 2025 to 2028 and revolver maturity from 2023 to 2026.
  • On April 15, 2024, the Company entered into a new $100 million incremental term loan, structured as a fungible add-on to the existing $350 million senior secured term loan, with the same pricing, terms and 2028 maturity as the existing $350 million term loan. AMG will use the proceeds of the new incremental term loan for general corporate purposes and lithium resource development.
  • AMG Engineering entered into €140 million of long-term bilateral unsecured performance-based guarantee facility agreements in January 2022, which replace the existing ones.

BUSINESS

• Focus on operational efficiency

• Reduction of operating costs and capital expenditures

RESILIENCE

• Momentum on positive business gains, strong backlogs into early 2024

DISCIPLINED APPROACH TO GROWTH

  • AMG Brazil's spodumene production expansion solidifies AMG's low-cost position
  • AMG's lithium hydroxide refinery's first 20,000-ton module in Bitterfeld, Germany, is in advanced phases of commissioning, and the product qualification process is planned to start in Q3 2024.
  • During 2023, AMG Vanadium ramped up its new ferrovanadium production facility in Zanesville, Ohio, doubling the Company's spent catalyst throughput capacity to approximately 11 million pounds of ferrovanadium per year.

The fundamental positions of our businesses are sound,

and AMG remains focused on disciplined, sustainable growth
