Li-Cycle Reports Third Quarter 2024 Operational and Financial Results, Including Strong Revenue Growth and Lower Costs

Highlights
•Closed an upsized $475-million loan facility with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) to support development of the Company's Rochester Hub project;
•Completed Rochester Hub internal technical review under the proposed mixed hydroxide precipitate (“MHP”) scope and expects annual production of up to approximately 8,250 tonnes of lithium carbonate and up to approximately 72,000 tonnes of MHP;
•Secured 100% off-take agreement with Glencore Ltd. for the MHP production from the Rochester Hub on market terms;
•Achieved strong year-over-year revenue growth of 79% to $8.4 million, which is equal to the previous quarter’s record revenue;
•Lowered selling, general & administrative ("SG&A") expenses by 50% year-over-year to $12.9 million, mainly due to the Company's cash preservation initiatives;
•Prioritizing full financing package to support construction restart at the Rochester Hub and to satisfy requirements for first advance of the DOE loan facility; and
•Working to establish a self-sufficient and financially accretive Spoke business through optimization initiatives and focus on Generation 3 Spokes.
TORONTO, ONTARIO (November 7, 2024) – Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. (NYSE: LICY) ("Li-Cycle" or the “Company"), a leading global lithium-ion battery resource recovery company, today announced financial results and business updates for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

“We are pleased to report that Li-Cycle has achieved significant milestones to support the restart of construction at the Rochester Hub. In addition to closing the upsized $475-million DOE loan facility, we also announced the establishment of a commercial framework for MHP off-take alongside our existing lithium carbonate off-take agreements. These are positive steps that will help us build momentum as we work to optimize our Spoke facilities to establish a self-sufficient Spoke business and secure a full funding package needed to restart construction of the Rochester Hub project,” said Ajay Kochhar, Li-Cycle's President & CEO.

“We believe the completion of the DOE loan agreement and the continued support from partners like Glencore are strong endorsements of our technology, business model, and the key role that Li-Cycle will play to support the shift to electrification. We also thank the DOE for their continued support and are grateful for the bipartisan support for lithium-ion battery recycling and how it can underpin the development of a strong domestic battery supply chain.”

DOE ATVM Loan Facility Finalized

Li-Cycle entered into an agreement for a loan facility (“Loan Facility”) of up to $475 million (including up to $445 million of principal and up to $30 million in capitalized interest) through the DOE Loan Programs Office’s Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (“ATVM”) program following the DOE's detailed technical, market, financial and legal due diligence.

The Loan Facility has a final maturity of March 15, 2040, for an approximately 15-year term with attractive interest rates. The first advance under the DOE Loan Facility ("First Advance"), must occur on or prior to November 7, 2025, and is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions and requirements, including completing the Company’s base equity contribution (“BEC”) to the Rochester Hub project.

The BEC includes a requirement for the Company to settle commitments related to the Rochester Hub project for costs incurred but not yet paid (approximately $92 million as of September 30, 2024). Additionally, the Company is required to fund approximately $173 million in reserve account requirements by First Advance1, of which up to approximately $97 million can be satisfied via letters of credit. These amounts represent a significant portion of the remaining BEC, are based on current estimates and may change prior to First Advance, and are among other components of the BEC that will need to be satisfied prior to First Advance.

The Company is actively exploring additional financing and strategic alternatives for a complete funding package needed to restart the construction at the Rochester Hub (of which the Loan Facility is a key component) and for general corporate purposes. The funding package would assist in satisfying the conditions for First Advance under the Loan Facility, including funding the remaining BEC (which includes the reserve account requirements) and a minimum cash balance.

Rochester Hub Project

The Company has completed its internal technical review of the MHP scope for the Rochester Hub. Li-Cycle expects to produce up to approximately 8,250 tonnes of battery-grade lithium carbonate and up to approximately 72,000 tonnes of MHP annually at the Rochester Hub under the MHP scope. The project’s nameplate processing capacity remains at 35,000 tonnes of black mass annually.

1 The Loan Facility reserve accounts required for First Advance includes reserves for project construction, project ramp-up, and Spoke capital expenditures. Funding of these reserve accounts does not constitute capital expenditure on the Rochester Hub project and the requirement to fund these reserve accounts is in addition to the total capital cost of the Rochester Hub project through to mechanical completion. The majority of these reserve account funds are expected to be released to the Company on or before the completion of the Rochester Hub project.


image_0a.jpg
The Company estimates the total capital cost of the Rochester Hub project through to mechanical completion to be approximately $960 million, of which the remaining estimated cost to complete (“CTC”) the project is approximately $487 million. The CTC includes commitments related to the project for costs incurred but not yet paid (approximately $92 million as of September 30, 2024). The total capital cost for the Rochester Hub project through to mechanical completion excludes costs for project commissioning, ramp-up, working capital or financing.

Li-Cycle has also entered into an agreement with Glencore Ltd. (“Glencore”) covering the off-take of 100% of the MHP to be produced at its Rochester Hub. The Company has amended and restated certain of its existing commercial agreements with Glencore and Traxys North America LLC (“Traxys”) to establish a commercial framework that provides a strong market foundation for the proposed MHP scope for the Rochester Hub project. Glencore’s and Traxys’ existing off-take rights covering lithium carbonate production from the Rochester Hub are not affected by these amendments.

Spoke Optimization

Li-Cycle continues to implement its Spoke optimization initiatives, which the Company believes will improve cash flows at its Generation 3 Spokes in Arizona, Alabama and Germany, with a view to establishing a self-sufficient and financially accretive Spoke business. The goals of the Spoke optimization initiatives include increasing throughput and recoveries, reducing costs, and enhancing the quality of the black mass produced at the Generation 3 Spokes to continue supporting the Company's key partners and customers. As part of the optimization initiatives and consistent with the focus in the Generation 3 Spokes, Li-Cycle is continuing closure activities at its Generation 1 Ontario Spoke and has curtailed operations at its Generation 2 New York Spoke.

Commercial Highlights

Li-Cycle continued to gain commercial traction and focused on the processing of electric vehicle ("EV") battery packs to leverage the processing capabilities of the Company’s Generation 3 Spokes. Approximately 40% of the Company’s global feedstock in Q3 2024 was EV battery packs and four of its top five global customers were EV original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs").

During the first nine months of 2024, Li-Cycle's largest customer source of revenue was a U.S.-headquartered, vertically integrated EV and battery manufacturer with a substantial global EV market share. In Q3 2024, the Company expanded a recycling agreement with one of the largest EV OEMs in Europe and now has recycling contracts with four of the largest EV OEMs on the continent.

Review of Q3 2024 Financial Results

The Company achieved strong year-over-year revenue growth of 79% for total revenue of $8.4 million, versus total revenue of $4.7 million in 2023. Total revenue includes revenue from


image_0a.jpg
product sales, which takes into account the impact of non-cash fair value pricing adjustments and recycling services. The total revenue increase was mainly due to higher recycling services revenue of $4.0 million, versus $1.2 million in 2023, increase in product revenue due to higher metal prices and favorable mix of constituent metals and favorable fair value pricing adjustment of $0.1 million, versus no adjustment in the prior year.

Total cost of sales was slightly lower at $20.0 million versus $20.1 million in 2023. Total cost of sales includes costs attributable to product sales and recycling services. Costs attributable to product sales decreased by $0.7 million due to lower production levels. This was offset by a $0.6 million increase in costs attributable to recycling services due to new service contracts entered into during the period.

SG&A expenses decreased 50% to $12.9 million versus $25.9 million in 2023, primarily due to lower recurring personnel costs driven by restructuring initiatives implemented since the pause of construction at the Rochester Hub.

Other income increased to $81.7 million, compared to $13.3 million in the same period last year, primarily due to favorable fair value adjustments of the Company’s financial instruments offset by an increase in interest expense.

Net profit was $56.5 million, compared to a loss of $30.7 million in 2023, which was primarily due to the increase in other income and the decrease in SG&A.

Adjusted EBITDA2 loss improved to $21.7 million, compared to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $41.4 million in 2023. This was largely driven by the decrease in SG&A and higher revenue.

The Company incurred capital expenditures of $20.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to capital expenditures of $290.8 million in the same period last year primarily due to the pause of construction at the Rochester Hub. The capital expenditures consisted of payments made for equipment and construction materials purchased during previous periods for the Rochester Hub and Germany Spoke.

Balance Sheet Position

As of September 30, 2024, Li-Cycle had cash and cash equivalents of $32.2 million, compared to $57.0 million at June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by operating and investing activities partially offset by lower expenditures due to the Company's cash conservation initiatives and proceeds raised through the at-the-market (“ATM”) equity offering program in the third quarter.

Between August 12, 2024, and September 13, 2024, the Company raised $1.1 million of net proceeds by issuing an aggregate of 701,323 of the Company’s common shares under the ATM

program at a weighted average price of $1.67 per share. Li-Cycle expects to continue utilizing its ATM equity offering program in the fourth quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA (loss)

Li-Cycle reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company makes references to certain non-GAAP measures, including adjusted EBITDA (loss). These measures are not recognized measures under U.S. GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those U.S. GAAP measures by providing a further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for the analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under U.S. GAAP.

Li-Cycle defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (income), income tax expense (recovery) adjusted for items that are not considered representative of ongoing operational activities of the business and items where the economic impact of the transactions will be reflected in earnings in future periods. Adjustments relate to fair value loss on financial instruments, debt extinguishment loss and certain non-recurring expenses. Foreign exchange (gain) loss is excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA (loss).

These and other risks and uncertainties related to Li-Cycle’s business are described in greater detail in the sections entitled "Item 1A. Risk Factors" and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation—Key Factors Affecting Li-Cycle’s Performance” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and the sections entitled "Part II. Other Information—Item 1A. Risk Factors" and “Part I. Financial Information—Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation—Key Factors Affecting Li-Cycle’s Performance” in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, in each case filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Ontario Securities Commission in Canada.
