Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Ivanhoe Electric Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ivanhoe Electric Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 27, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting..
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.

BHP Exploration Alliance — Refer to Note 6 to the financial statements.
Critical Audit Matter Description
On May 7, 2024, the Company entered into an Exploration Alliance Agreement ("the Arrangement") with BHP Mineral Resources Inc. (“BHP”), which established the framework for BHP and the Company to explore mutually agreed “Areas of Interest” in the United States, for which the Company provided access to one Typhoon™ system and BHP contributed funding to be used to identify copper and other critical metal exploration opportunities within those Areas of Interest that may become 50/50 owned joint ventures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Ivanhoe Electric Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Ivanhoe Electric Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company") as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, of the Company and our report dated February 27, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
1. Background and basis of preparation:
Ivanhoe Electric Inc. (“Ivanhoe Electric” or “the Company”) is a United States company that combines advanced mineral exploration technologies with electric metals exploration projects predominantly located in the United States. The Company’s mineral exploration efforts focus on copper as well as other metals including nickel, vanadium, cobalt, platinum group elements, gold and silver. The Company’s portfolio of electric metals exploration projects include the Santa Cruz Project in Arizona, as well as other exploration projects in the United States.
In addition to mineral projects in the United States, the Company also holds direct and indirect ownership interests, and in some cases controlling financial interests, in other non-U.S. mineral projects, and in proprietary mineral exploration and minerals-based technologies.
The Company holds a 50 % interest in a joint venture with Saudi Arabian Mining Company Ma’aden (“Ma’aden”) to explore prospective land in Saudi Arabia.
The Company conducts the following business activities through certain subsidiaries:
• VRB Energy Inc. (“VRB”), develops, manufactures and installs vanadium flow batteries for grid-scale energy storage. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in VRB of 90.0 % as at December 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 — 90.0 %).
• Computational Geosciences Inc. (“CGI”), provides data analytics, geophysical modelling, software licensing and artificial intelligence services for the mineral, oil & gas and water exploration industries. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in CGI of 94.3 % as at December 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 — 94.3 %).
• Cordoba Minerals Corp. (“Cordoba”) holds the San Matias copper-gold-silver project in northern Colombia. Ivanhoe Electric had an ownership interest in Cordoba of 62.5 % as at December 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 — 62.8 %).
Basis of preparation:
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
Reverse stock split:
In June 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding common stock at a ratio of 3 -for-1 (the “Reverse Stock Split”) effective as of June 16, 2022. The number of authorized shares and the par values of the common stock were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split. For periods before June 16, 2022, all references to common stock, options to purchase common stock, per share data, and related information contained in the financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
References to “$” refer to United States dollars and “Cdn$” to Canadian dollars.

2. Significant accounting policies:
(a) Basis of measurement:
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except as disclosed in these accounting policies.
(b) Principles of consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of those subsidiaries where it directly or indirectly has more than 50% of the voting rights and/or has control over the subsidiary. For entities controlled through less than a 100% ownership interest, a non-controlling interest is recorded to reflect the non-controlling interest’s share of the net loss and net assets of the entity.
The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest based on either the variable interest entity (“VIE”) or the voting interest model.
An entity is considered to be a VIE if any of the following conditions exist: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, (b) the holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lack either the direct or indirect ability through voting rights or similar rights to make decisions that have a significant effect on the success of the entity or the obligation to absorb the entity’s expected losses or the right to receive the entity’s expected residual returns, or (c) the voting rights of some equity investors are disproportionate to their obligation to absorb losses of the entity, their rights to receive returns from an entity, or both, and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights.
The Company consolidates entities that are VIEs when the Company determines it is the primary beneficiary. Generally, the primary beneficiary of a VIE is a reporting entity that has (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance, and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company’s VIE’s are discussed in Note 16 (Earn-in option agreements) and Note 19 (Non-controlling interests).
(c) Foreign currency:
The functional currency and reporting currency of Ivanhoe Electric is the U.S. dollar. Each subsidiary determines its own functional currency based on the primary economic environment in which it operates.
(i) Foreign currency translation:
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the rates of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are measured and recorded in the functional currency at the exchange rate prevailing on the transaction date, and exchange differences arising on remeasurement are recognized in net loss.
(ii) Foreign operations:
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations whose functional currency is other than the reporting currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date. Revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated using the average rates for the year. Translation adjustments are shown as a component of other comprehensive income.
(d) Cash and cash equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents comprise deposits held with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to insignificant risk of changes in value.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
(e) Trade accounts receivable:
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at cost and do not bear interest. Management evaluates all accounts periodically and an allowance is established based on the best facts available. Management considers historical realization data, accounts receivable aging trends, other operational trends and reasonable forecasts to estimate the collectability of receivables. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have been exhausted, the receivable is written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
(f) Inventory:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost comprises direct materials and where applicable, direct labor costs and overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventory to its present location and condition. Cost is calculated using the weighted average cost method. Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Where cost exceeds net realizable value, the recorded value of inventory is written down to its net realizable value, and such impairment losses are not reversed in future periods.
(g) Investments subject to significant influence:
The Company accounts for its investments over which it has significant influence or joint control, but not a controlling financial interest, using the equity method of accounting unless it has elected to account for an investment subject to significant influence at fair value.
Interests in equity-accounted investees are recognized initially at cost. Subsequently, the Company adjusts the carrying amount of the investments to fair value where the fair value option has been elected or recognizes its share of earnings or losses of the investees where applying the equity method.
Where investee’s financial information is not produced in a sufficiently timely manner for the Company to apply the equity method of accounting in its consolidated financial statements, the Company records its share of earnings and losses on a lag, not to exceed three months. When a lag period is applied, the Company discloses all material intervening events.
The Company evaluates its equity method investments for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that there is an other-than-temporary decline in the value of the investment. Declines in fair value that are deemed to be other-than-temporary are charged to other expenses.
(h) Other investments
Changes in the fair value for equity securities with a readily determinable fair value are reported in the consolidated statement of loss. The Company records equity securities without readily determinable fair values (such as investment in common stock, warrants and options of privately held companies) at cost, less impairment, and makes subsequent adjustments to the carrying values for observable price changes for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are written down to their fair value if a qualitative assessment indicates that the investment is impaired and the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying amount.
(i) Derivatives
Derivative instruments and embedded derivatives on the balance sheet are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings unless hedge accounting applies. The Company has not applied hedge accounting to any derivatives.
(j) Exploration properties and exploration expense
Direct costs for the acquisition of mineral exploration rights, including option payments, are capitalized and recorded initially at cost as exploration properties. Exploration and evaluation costs are expensed in the period incurred until such time as it has been determined that a mineral property is commercially feasible, in which case subsequent exploration and evaluation costs incurred to develop a mineral property are capitalized. Commercial

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
feasibility is generally established when a mineral property has proven and probable reserves, permits or rights to extract the resources and reserves have been obtained and financing to develop the property has been approved.
Mineral interests are not amortized until the underlying property is converted to the production stage, at which point the mineral interests are amortized over the estimated recoverable proven and probable reserves.
Exploration and evaluation costs include topographical, geological, geochemical and geophysical studies, exploratory drilling, trenching, sampling, and activities in relation to evaluating the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource, as well as value-added taxes in relation to these direct exploration and evaluation costs incurred in foreign jurisdictions when recoverability of those taxes is uncertain.
Exploration and evaluation costs include funding exploration and evaluation costs pursuant to earn-in arrangements through which the Company has the right to fund exploration and evaluation activities on assets owned by a third party and the opportunity to earn into a partial ownership position directly or indirectly in the underlying assets upon reaching specified funding thresholds. Earn-in arrangements generally provide no commitment by the Company for future funding and the Company is not entitled to any economic returns associated with the underlying mineral interests unless the Company chooses to fund to certain levels.
(k) Property, plant and equipment:
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Major expenditures for replacements and significant improvements that increase asset values and extend useful lives are capitalized.
The cost of property, plant and equipment, less its estimated residual value, is depreciated over its estimated useful lives using the straight-line method on the following bases:
Asset Basis
Equipment and vehicles 3 to 10 years
Computer equipment 3 to 5 years
Leasehold improvements Shorter of useful life and remaining lease term
The useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed annually, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
(l) Leases:
The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at the inception of a contract. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset during the term of the arrangement and if the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset.
The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and a corresponding lease liability at the commencement of the lease, except the Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and liabilities for leases where the total lease term is less than or equal to 12 months. The Company has elected to treat the lease and non-lease components of office leases as a single lease component.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the unpaid lease payments at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
Operating Leases
The ROU asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred less any lease incentives received.
For operating leases, the Company records the amortization of the ROU assets and the accretion of the lease liabilities as a single lease cost on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Finance Leases
For finance leases, the ROU asset is subsequently amortized using the straight-line method from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of its useful life or the end of the lease term unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Company or the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an option to purchase the underlying asset. In those cases, the ROU asset is amortized over the useful life of the underlying asset. Amortization of the ROU asset is included in depreciation and interest expense on the lease liability is included in interest expense.
(m) Intangible assets:
Intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over the assets estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in the estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis.
The estimated useful lives of intangibles are:
Asset Basis
Patents and licenses 5 to 20 years
Software 1 to 5 years
Artificial Intelligence intellectual property 5 years
(n) Impairment of long-lived assets:
Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values or third-party independent appraisals.
(o) Revenue recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue from the following major sources:
• Data processing services;
• Sale of software licenses; and
• Sale of renewable energy storage systems.
(i) Data processing services:
The Company sells data processing services to customers in the mineral, oil & gas and water exploration industries. The Company enters into contracts with customers with single and multiple deliverables or performance obligations. General payment terms are net 15 days. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer products or services that are distinct. Determining whether products or
F-11
Table of Contents
IVANHOE ELECTRIC INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
services are distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately, or combined as one unit of accounting and the allocation of the transaction price to each distinct performance obligation may require significant judgment.
For short term contracts with a single deliverable, the Company recognizes revenue at the point in time when it transfers control of a distinct performance obligation to a customer. Control transfers on the agreed upon deliverable being delivered to the customer, the customer accepting the deliverable and when the Company has not retained any significant risk of future obligations with respect to the service being provided.
The Company enters into arrangements for the provision of long-term data processing services. Such services are recognized as a performance obligation satisfied over time. Revenue is recognized for these services based on the stage of completion of the contract using the most appropriate measure of progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligations. Payment for these services is in accordance with an agreed billing schedule and therefore either (i) a contract asset is recognized over the period in which the services are performed, representing the Company’s right to consideration for the services performed to date, or (ii) a contract liability is recognized until the corresponding services have been provided.
(ii) Sale of software licenses:
The Company enters into software license agreements where it provides the use of software to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time that it satisfies its performance obligation by making the software available for download, meeting customer specific acceptance criteria, where applicable, and having reasonable certainty that the consideration will be received. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer.
(iii) Sale of energy storage systems:
The Company designs, develops, and manufactures energy storage systems as products as well as energy storage solutions and operations & maintenance (“O&M”) services. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer.
Energy storage systems as products are transferred at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the product, which is typically upon shipment, delivery, installation and commissioning, depending on the contract terms.
Revenue is recognized for sales of battery storage solutions over time based on the estimated progress to completion using a cost-based input method. In applying the cost-based input method of revenue recognition, we use the actual costs incurred relative to the total estimated costs to determine progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue and gross profit to recognize. The cost based input method of revenue recognition is considered a faithful depiction of efforts to satisfy energy storage solutions and therefore reflect the transfer of goods or services to a customer under such contracts. Costs incurred towards contract completion may include costs associated with direct materials, labor, subcontractors, and other indirect costs related to contract performance. The cost-based input method of revenue recognition requires the Company to make estimates of net contract revenues and costs to complete projects.
O&M services are transferred over time when customers receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company’s performance under the terms of service arrangements.
(p) Contingent liabilities:
(i) Warranties:
The Company provides maintenance on energy storage products during the warranty period, typically a fixed number of months agreed upon with the customer. Costs of warranty include the cost of labor, material and related overhead necessary to repair a product during the warranty period. The Company accrues for the estimated cost of the warranty on products shipped upon recognition of the sale of the product. The costs are
F-12
Table of Contents
IVANHOE ELECTRIC INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
estimated based on actual historical expenses incurred and on estimated future expenses related to current sales, and are updated each reporting period.
(ii) Asset retirement obligations:
The Company recognizes asset retirement obligations arising from regulatory, contractual or other legal requirements to perform certain property and asset reclamation activities at the end of the respective asset life. Asset retirement obligations are recorded when environmental disturbance occurs, accompanied by a legal obligation to remediate. Asset retirement obligations, or increases therein, are initially measured at fair value and subsequently adjusted for accretion expense and changes in the amount or timing of the estimated cash flows.
(q) Research and development costs:
Expenditure on research and development activities is recognized as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
(r) Stock-based compensation:
The Company recognizes employee stock-based compensation as an expense in the consolidated financial statements. Equity-classified awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model using the grant date stock price, dividend yield, estimated amounts for volatility of the Company’s stock, the expected life of the awards and the risk-free interest rate. Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period for each separate tranche of the award. Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
The fair value of stock-settled restricted stock units (“RSU’s”) and deferred share units (“DSU’s”) is based on the Company’s stock price on the date of grant. Shares of common stock are issued at the vesting date for stock-settled RSU’s and DSU’s. The fair value of stock-settled RSU’s and DSU’s is amortized over the vesting period and recognized as an expense in the consolidated financial statements.
(s) Income taxes:
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company recognizes the effect of uncertain income tax positions if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties, if any, in general and administrative expenses.
Each reporting period, the Company reviews its deferred tax assets for the possibility they will not be realized. A valuation allowance will be recorded if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
(t) Fair value measurements:
The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs, to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels (Note 23):
• Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible at the measurement date.
F-13
Table of Contents
IVANHOE ELECTRIC INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
• Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
• Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
(u) Net loss per share:
Basic and diluted loss per share attributable to common stockholders are computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the respective period presented.
The diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is computed by giving effect to all potential dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period, except to the extent they are antidilutive.
(v) Convertible debt:
Upon the issuance of convertible debt, the Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of consolidated and combined loss. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment, the instrument is evaluated for consideration of any beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features.
The equity component, if any, is treated as a discount on the liability component of the convertible debt, which is amortized over the term of the convertible debt using the effective interest rate method. When it has been determined an instrument does not have an equity component, the Company may elect to account for the instrument at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in the statement of consolidated and combined loss, except with respect to changes in value caused by changes in the Company’s own credit risk.
(w) Debt and equity issuance costs:
Debt issuance costs directly related to a debt liability, including fees, commissions and legal expenses, are deferred and presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt and amortized on an effective interest rate method over the term of the liability. Amortization of debt issuance costs is included in interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statement of loss.
For debt where the Company has elected fair value accounting under ASC 825, debt issuance costs are expensed on recognition in the Company’s consolidated statement of net loss.
Costs directly attributable to the issuance of equity in the Company are netted against the gross proceeds of the equity.

3. Use of estimates:
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Significant areas requiring the use of estimates are as follows
(i) Recoverable value of exploration properties:
The Company reviews and evaluates exploration properties for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of our exploration mineral interests did not involve significant estimation in the periods presented as circumstances did not indicate the carrying amount of our assets may not be recoverable. However, the recoverability of our recorded mineral interests is subject to market factors that could significantly affect the recoverability of our assets, such as commodity prices, results of exploration activities that may affect our intentions to continue under option or earn-in agreements and geopolitical circumstances, particularly in Colombia. By nature, significant changes in these factors are reasonably possible to occur periodically, which could materially impact our financial statements
(ii) Impairment indicators in equity securities:
The recoverability of the carrying value of the Company’s investments in private equity securities, including those subject to significant influence, is dependent on the Company’s ability to sell the assets privately or the investees’ ability to publicly list the shares or generate profitable operations and pay dividends in the future, in each case in amounts that exceed the carrying value. Changes in the investees’ plans and value or the Company’s expectations related to the manner and timing of realizing the value of its equity investments, may result in changes in the recoverability of recorded amounts.
(iii) Recoverability of deferred income tax assets:
The Company has recognized significant valuation allowances against its deferred tax assets. The necessity for valuation allowances could be affected by changes in the Company’s estimates of future taxable income. In addition to the generation of future taxable income through the establishment of economic feasibility, development and operation of mines on the Company’s exploration assets, opportunities for future taxable income could arise through disposal of assets, or the identification of tax-planning strategies or changes in tax laws that would allow the benefits of future deductible temporary differences in certain entities or jurisdictions to be offset against future taxable temporary differences in other entities or jurisdictions.
(iv) Fair value of convertible notes:
Certain convertible notes are carried in the statements of financial position at fair value, with changes in fair value reflected in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss. Fair values are estimated by reference to valuation techniques that may include inputs that are not based on observable market data.
(v) Valuation of stock options:
The fair value of stock options granted by the Company is estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Inputs to the model that require management judgment include the options expected life and volatility.
4. Recently adopted accounting standards and recent accounting pronouncements:
Segment reporting
The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective January 1, 2024. This update was issued to improve the disclosures about a public entity’s reportable segments by requiring disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual

and interim basis. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In August 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-05 Business Combinations—Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60): Recognition and Initial Measurement. The update was issued to address the accounting for contributions made to a joint venture, upon formation, in a joint venture’s separate financial statements. Upon formation, a joint venture will recognize and initially measure its assets and liabilities at fair value (with exceptions to fair value measurement that are consistent with the business combinations guidance). This update is effective prospectively for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This update was issued to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2023-09 on January 1, 2025 and will be required to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation if quantitative thresholds are met. The amount of income taxes paid, if any, will be required to be disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update was issued to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses and address requests from investors for more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The Company is required to adopt ASU 2024-03 on January 1, 2027 and is currently evaluating the expected impact on the consolidated financial statements.
5. Cash and cash equivalents:
Of the total cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2024 and 2023, $ 11.2 million and $ 15.0 million, respectively, was not available for the general corporate purposes of the Company as it was held by non-wholly-owned subsidiaries (Note 19).
6. Restricted cash and deferred exploration liability:
On May 7, 2024, the Company entered into an Exploration Alliance Agreement ("the Alliance") with BHP Mineral Resources Inc. (“BHP”), which sets out the framework for BHP and the Company to explore mutually agreed “Areas of Interest” in the United States to identify copper and other critical metal exploration opportunities within those Areas of Interest that may become 50/50 owned joint ventures.
The agreement is for a term of three years , which may be extended upon mutual agreement. BHP will provide the initial funding of $ 15.0 million and thereafter the Company and BHP would provide funding on a 50/50 basis. The Company will provide the Alliance access to one Typhoon™ system.
On August 19, 2024, BHP provided initial funding in the amount $ 6.0 million, which is solely for funding exploration activities of the Alliance. The funding has been recorded as restricted cash, with an offsetting credit recorded as a deferred exploration liability. As at December 31, 2024, the restricted cash balance was $ 4.3 million, as $ 1.7 million in cash was spent on exploration activities.
The Company is using the equity method of accounting for the Areas of Interest as it was determined that they are subject to joint control.

(Tabular amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated)
The Ma'aden transactions included the establishment of a 50/50 exploration joint venture between Ma’aden and Ivanhoe Electric to explore approximately 48,500 km 2 of prospective land (“Ma’aden land”) in Saudi Arabia and a $ 127.1 million strategic investment by Ma'aden in Ivanhoe Electric common stock. Refer to Note 13 for further information with respect to the Ma’aden investment in Ivanhoe Electric common stock.
In July 2023, Ivanhoe Electric contributed $ 66.0 million in cash into the Ma'aden Joint Venture. Ma’aden contributed access to Ma’aden land for the purpose of conducting exploration activities as a contribution for its 50 % shareholding in the joint venture.
In addition, Ivanhoe Electric and the Ma'aden Joint Venture entered into a separate Typhoon™ equipment purchase agreement with I-Pulse Inc. ("I-Pulse") whereby the Ma’aden Joint Venture purchased three Typhoon™ units for an aggregate contract price of approximately $ 12.0 million.
The exploration phase of the Ma'aden Joint Venture has an initial term of five years that may be extended for up to an additional five years subject to confirmation by both shareholders. The Shareholders’ Agreement shall terminate at the end of the exploration term if no land area with an economically viable resource has been identified (“Designated Project”).
In the event of termination of the Shareholders’ Agreement or upon conclusion of the exploration phase, the legal and beneficial title to each Typhoon™ unit shall immediately revert to Ivanhoe Electric and Ma’aden shall be entitled to withdraw the land access rights to the Ma’aden land (except concerning Designated Projects).
The Ma'aden Joint Venture is managed by the Board of Directors of the joint venture with Ivanhoe Electric and Ma’aden each having the right to appoint three directors.
Management determined that the Ma'aden Joint Venture is subject to joint control and will account for the investment using the equity method of accounting.
At December 31, 2024, the Ma’aden Joint Venture owes the Company $ 0.2 million for costs that the Company incurred on behalf of the Ma’aden Joint Venture (December 31, 2023 - $ 1.3 million).

The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Expected volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of a group of peer companies’ common stock and a group of relevant stock market indices over the expected option life. Management exercised judgment in determining the expected life of the options and considered factors such as the contractual term of the options, the vesting schedule and expected volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on Federal Reserve rates in effect for bonds with maturity dates equal to the expected term of the option.

16. Earn-in option agreements:
The Company has entered into various joint venture earn-in agreements whereby it has an option to obtain ownership interests in project entities through a combination of payments to the owner and funding exploration and evaluation expenditures on the underlying exploration assets according to a specified timeframe, while determining whether it wishes to continue to invest to obtain a minority or majority interest. Under these agreements, the Company may obtain ownership rights to the underlying mineral interests through acquisition of the underlying rights or through obtaining control of the entity holding such rights.
Project entities are generally considered variable interest entities prior to the Company acquiring an equity interest in the project entity (and thereafter in cases where the entity is financed through additional subordinated financial support such as shareholder debt). The Company has exercised judgment in determining that the activities that most significantly affect the project entity’s performance during the early exploration stage of the Company including the Company’s determination that its decision-making rights, which are practically limited to short-term discretionary exploration activity, are not the activities that most significantly affect the economic results of the project entities. The Company has determined that decisions that most significantly affect the economic results of a non-operating entity holding a single or primary exploration property without reserves include granting or amending exploration concessions and options as well as decisions related to the retention or abandonment of the associated mineral rights, none of which can be undertaken unilaterally by the Company.
The table below shows the net carrying value of the Company’s assets in these entities, being the investment in the equity of the ultimate owner of the project (“Project Sponsor”) and the investment in the equity of the underlying project entity, respectively, as of December 31, 2024, which together represent the Company’s maximum exposure to loss on the underlying project as of December 31, 2024 as a result of the earn-in agreement and associated agreements. The Company has no liabilities on the balance sheet with respect to these entities.
The Company has no minimum commitment to future expenditures in relation to these arrangements and has not issued guarantees on behalf of these entities. The table also presents certain information with respect to the earn-in option (cumulative expenditures to date, expenditures necessary to obtain an initial minority ownership right and expenditures required to achieve the maximum ownership interest available under the agreement). Exploration expenditures made in respect of these earn-in arrangements, which are at the discretion of the Company and therefore exceed contractual obligations, are presented in Note 15. The Company funds exploration expenditures in excess of contractual requirements for the purpose of evaluating and investing in option agreements.

(3) On January 16, 2025, the Company provided notice to Exiro Minerals USA Corp. of its election to terminate the earn-in agreement relating to the White Hills Project effective February 15, 2025.
17. Disposal of subsidiary:
On October 15, 2024, VRB entered into an agreement with China Energy Storage Industry Co., Ltd. (“Red Sun”) to form a joint venture in VRB's existing operation in China. Under this agreement, Red Sun holds a 51 % ownership stake in VRB China and VRB owns the remaining 49 %. The change in control became effective on October 31, 2024.
Red Sun purchased shares of VRB China, a previously wholly-owned subsidiary of VRB, from VRB for $ 20.0 million and will complete a capital increase directly in VRB China in the amount of $ 35.2 million, of which $ 12.7 million was received in October 2024. The remaining $ 22.5 million will be received in five installments during 2025.
The $ 20.0 million due to VRB is payable in two tranches and is recorded in accounts and other receivables as at December 31, 2024. On October 28, 2024, $ 10.0 million was deposited to an account in China jointly controlled by Red Sun and VRB. Following receipt of several regulatory approvals required to transfer the funds outside of China, on February 11, 2025, VRB received the first tranche payment with the balance being due in June 2025.
VRB China is a variable interest entity, as it is dependent on additional subordinated financial support from Red Sun, principally in the form of additional committed capital contributions. A portion of Red Sun’s equity in VRB China, being 30 % of the total equity in VRB China, is contingently returnable to the Company in the event Red Sun defaults on its payable to the Company or any of its capital commitments to VRB China, all of which are due and payable during 2025. Judgment was required in determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary prior to Red Sun having fully paid for its equity. The Company has determined it is no longer the primary beneficiary of VRB China as of October 31, 2024. In reaching this decision, the Company considered that as of October 31, 2024 Red Sun assumed the operator role over the business of VRB China, is actively managing significant business activities and has the right to appoint the majority of directors. The Company has determined that this results in Red Sun having greater decision-making power over the most significant activities of VRB China. In addition, Red Sun gained liquidation and dividend rights associated with the majority of the equity of VRB China.
As a result, the Company has de-consolidated VRB China as of October 31, 2024 and has accounted for its retained interest in VRB China using the equity method of accounting. The Company has recorded its retained interest in VRB China at a fair value of $ 35.8 million, based on the consideration paid, and recognized a gain on the sale of the controlling interest of VRB China of $ 50.7 million, as presented below.

As at December 31, 2024, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss in VRB China is represented by the aggregate carrying value of $ 60.6 million, including $ 20.0 million accounts receivable and $ 40.6 million for its retained interest in the equity of VRB China.
18. Non-controlling interests investment in subsidiary:
On May 8, 2023, Cordoba closed the $ 100.0 million strategic arrangement with JCHX to advance the Alacran Project in Colombia. Upon closing, JCHX received a 50 % ownership interest in CMH Colombia S.A.S. (“CMH”), a Colombian company that owns 100 % of the Alacran Project and is the joint venture vehicle for Cordoba and JCHX in this strategic project level partnership.
For its 50 % interest, JCHX will pay the $ 100.0 million purchase price in three installments. As of the closing of the transaction, $ 40.0 million was paid as a first installment. On January 4, 2024, Cordoba received the second installment of $ 40.0 million that was payable in cash upon the board of directors of Cordoba approving the Feasibility Study of the Alacran Project and the filing of the Environmental Impact Assessment (“EIA”) to the relevant Colombian Government authority, with $ 10.0 million of this amount paid in December 2023 and the remaining $ 30.0 million settled in January 2024. A third and final installment of $ 20.0 million is receivable in cash upon the approval of the EIA, which must be within two years of the transaction’s closing date. Should the EIA not be approved by the second anniversary of the closing date, JCHX will have the option to elect not to complete this final installment.
In the event JCHX does not pay the third installment, JCHX’s and Cordoba’s ownership of CMH shares will be adjusted to 40 % and 60 %, respectively.
The Company currently retains control over the relevant activities of CMH and therefore continues to consolidate the entity.
The Company measures its non-controlling interest and loss attributable to non-controlling shareholders on the basis of a hypothetical liquidation at book value. Upon closing in 2023, the Company recorded the difference between the consideration received and the carrying value of the interest given up of $ 18.0 million in additional paid in capital.
19. Non-controlling interests:
The Company held a controlling interest in several entities that are not wholly-owned. The associated non-controlling interests and portion of assets and liabilities represented by these subsidiaries are shown below. The assets and

The Company had no unrecognized income tax benefits as of December 31, 2024 or 2023. Due to the net operating loss carryover position coupled with the lack of any unrecognized tax benefits, the Company has not provided for any interest or penalties associated with any uncertain tax positions. If interest and penalties were to be assessed, the Company would charge interest to interest expense, and penalties to general and administrative expense. It is not anticipated that there will be any significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.
The Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability related to its investments in foreign subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability related to investments in these foreign subsidiaries.

For the year ended December 31, 2024 JCHX provided engineering services to Cordoba totaling $ 1.6 million.
22. Net loss per share:
Basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders was calculated as follows:
Year ended December 31,
2024 2023 2022
Net loss attributable to common stockholders or parent $ 128,622 $ 199,377 $ 149,813
Weighted-average number of shares outstanding
Basic and diluted 120,377,904 102,491,529 78,527,539
Basic and diluted net loss per share $ 1.07 $ 1.95 $ 1.91
For purposes of this calculation, convertible debt, and options to purchase common stock are considered common stock equivalents but have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders as their effect is antidilutive. The amount of antidilutive shares excluded from the calculation as at December 31, 2024 was 9.0 million (December 31, 2023 - 7.5 million, December 31, 2022 - 7.9 million).
