Commenting on the commencement of Nasdaq trading, 5E CEO, Henri Tausch, said:

“Our Nasdaq listing delivers another important milestone for the Company, and I am incredibly proud of the team who have worked diligently to deliver a successful U.S. listing. We also look forward to working with U.S. and other Nasdaq investors in our pursuit to become a vertically integrated global leader in boron advanced materials.

Although relatively unknown, boron is a scarce resource and critical input to many traditional and future facing decarbonization applications, including permanent magnets, electric vehicles, wind turbines, and micronutrients. Accelerating worldwide demand and limited supply from international, unstable sources is driving the need for a new, domestic source of boron. 5E is well positioned to provide this critical source as we operate the largest known new conventional boron deposit globally, which is located in Southern California and designated Critical Infrastructure by the U.S. government.

We are in the Right Place, at the Right Time, with the Right Asset.”
