AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BUSINESS AND REFERENCES TO THE COMPANY Unless indicated, the terms we , us , our , Comstock , or the Company mean Comstock Inc., and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS Comstock commercializes innovative technologies, systems and supply chains that extract, process, and convert under-utilized waste and natural resources into clean energy and clean energy supporting products, including truly sustainable solutions that produce renewed and repurposed electrification metals and minerals from end-of-life solar panels. Bioleum Corporation (“Bioleum”), the Company's subsidiary, seeks to commercialize technologies, systems and supply chains that produce renewable fuels from waste, purpose grown energy crops and other forms of woody biomass. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of Comstock Inc. and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required of annual consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 . Accordingly, operating results for the three -months ended March 31, 2026 may not be indicative of full year 2026 results. In management's opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of our financial position as of March 31, 2026 , and our results of operations, changes in equity and cash flows for the three -months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 . GUARANTEES The Company accounts for guarantees in accordance with ASC Topic 460, Guarantees . Guarantee obligations are recognized as liabilities at the time the guarantee is contractually executed and are initially measured at fair value, reflecting the Company’s noncontingent obligation to stand ready to perform under the guarantee. The guaranteed liability remains outstanding until the Company is released from its exposure under the guarantee, which generally occurs upon expiration or settlement of the guarantee. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOUR CES The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis of accounting that assumes the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has had recurring net losses from operations and had an accumulated deficit of $ 388,110,925 at March 31, 2026 . For the three -months ended March 31, 2026 , the Company recognized a net loss of $ 9,383,417 . Cash and cash equivalents increased by $ 36,016,156 from $ 16,951,645 at December 31, 2025 to $ 52,967,801 at March 31, 2026 . At March 31, 2026 , the Company has no outstanding debt. The Company intends to fund our operations over the next twelve months from existing cash and cash equivalents, planned sales of non-strategic assets and other investments, sales and deferred revenue from our solar panel recycling business, and issuance of subsidiary-level equity (that is, by Bioleum Corporation). The Company also maintains access to capital from our existing shelf registration statement. Based on these existing and expected funding sources, management believes we will have sufficient funds to sustain our operations and meet our commitments under our investment agreements during the 12 months following the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements included herein. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2026 financial statement presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on net income (loss), cash flows, or stockholders' equity as previously reported. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS 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, which requires disclosure about the types of costs and expenses included in certain expense captions presented on the income statement. The new disclosure requirements are effective for the Company's annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the ASU to determine its impact on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. 10 Table of Contents NOTE 2 ACQUISITION OF HEXAS BIOMASS INC.

(“SSOF”) From 2019 through December 31, 2025 , the Company invested $ 8,500,000 for 11,236,111 shares in SSOF resulting in equity ownership of 16.99 % as of December 31, 2025. The December 31, 2025 carrying value of the Company's investment in SSOF reflects an observable transaction adjustment recorded by the Company in 2023. For the three -months ended March 31, 2026 , the Company recognized $ 227,844 in equity loss from affiliates for our investment in SSOF. At December 31, 2025, the Company had an advance to SSOF of $ 9,400,000 . During the three -months ended March 31, 2026 , the Company advanced an additional $ 5,750,000 . On March 26, 2026, all advances, totaling $ 15,150,000 were contributed in exchange for 23,307,692 shares of SSOF common stock at $ 0.65 per share. On March 30, 2026, the Company subscribed to and invested an additional $ 2,000,000 for 3,076,923 additional shares of SSOF common stock, also at $ 0.65 per share. These investments increased the Company's ownership to 40.66 %.

In connection with the change in ownership, management reassessed its prior conclusions regarding the Company's variable interest in SSOF. SSOF continues to be a variable interest entity in which the Company holds a variable interest, and the Company continues to conclude that it is not the primary beneficiary of SSOF, because the Company does not have the power, individually or together with its related parties, to direct the activities of SSOF that most significantly affect SSOF's economic performance. Although the Company's chief executive officer also serves as an executive of SSOF, this relationship was previously evaluated and was a factor in the prior conclusion, which remains unchanged. Accordingly, SSOF is not consolidated, and the Company accounts for its investment in SSOF under the equity method. At March 31, 2026 , the Company's maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with SSOF is limited to its investment of $ 37,147,156 . Investment in Green Li-ion Pte.

The Company monitors additional equity issuances and other potential orderly transactions of Green Li-ion to assess whether the equity securities issued are similar investments requiring adjustments of our investments carrying value to fair value. During the three -months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 , no adjustments were made to the carrying value of our investment in Green Li-ion as no orderly transactions for investments similar to the Company's investment were observed during those periods.

The original 2021 purchase price included a payable for the Flux Photon Assets of $ 18,000,000 , payable only from 20 % of future cash flows defined as the future monthly consolidated sales, less total variable costs, less operating expenses, maintenance, tax payments, and debt service payments of the Company and its subsidiaries until the purchase price was fully paid (the “Earn Out”). From 2021 through May 21, 2025, the Company advanced $ 1,150,000 in cash and applied an $ 800,000 discount in consideration for those advance payments, resulting in a remaining balance of $ 16,050,000 as of May 21, 2025. Flux Photon Earn Out On May 21, 2025, in connection with the restructured acquisition of Bioleum and the execution and delivery of the Bioleum Transaction Documents, the Company and Flux Photon entered into the FPC Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment. Under the FPC Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Company committed to a final settlement of $ 10.0 million of the existing Earn Out obligation. To satisfy this commitment, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, 1,700,000 of such shares went towards settling $ 10.0 million of the Earn Out, with true up provisions for any proceeds received by Flux Photon that are below or in excess of $ 10.0 million, and the other 300,000 shares of common stock as settlement with certain Flux Photon affiliates. In 2025, Flux Photon sold all 1,700,000 shares of the Company's stock for net proceeds of $ 4,726,187 with a remaining amount owed to Flux Photon pursuant to the FPC Asset Purchase Agreement of $ 5,273,813 which was recognized as Flux Photon payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheet (see Note 15 ). Payable to Flux Photon (see Note 7 ) Pursuant to the 2025 FPC Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Company is required to pay an additional $6,050,000 cash commitment to Flux Photon for the remaining Earn Out due on the FPC Asset Purchase Agreement.

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, footnotes and the risk factors included herewith and herein. OVERVIEW Comstock commercializes innovative technologies, systems and supply chains that extract, process, and convert under-utilized waste and natural resources into clean energy and clean energy supporting products, including truly sustainable solutions that produce renewed and repurposed electrification metals and minerals from end-of-life solar panels. We approach industrial growth opportunities by identifying, acquiring, and building companies with the potential for superior financial returns on deployed capital, by systematically creating and operating industrial enterprises and systems from the ground up, typically in full equity-based alignment with the founders of the technologies, and then developing, integrating and commercializing their breakthrough technology-based solutions through a distinctive combination of operational and organizational scale-up expertise. Comstock Metals and Bioleum Corporation represent the two leading examples of actualizing our strategy, wherein the founders' groups have a meaningful stake (up to 20% of the subsidiaries' equity or comparable form of profit interest) that is fully restricted until major monetization events occur. Comstock Metals has established the goal of s etting the global standard for solar panel recycling . Our process creates no waste, generates no landfilled materials, and results in clean recycled products that are safe for reuse. Bioleum seeks to commercialize technologies, systems and supply chains that produce renewable fuels from waste, purpose grown energy crops and other forms of woody biomass. We approach the challenge of sustainability head-on by innovating, developing and commercializing technologies that accomplish more while utilizing fewer natural resources, protecting our ecosystem from the negative impact of carbon emissions and toxic materials, and enabling and empowering the next industrial revolution. Our plans to generate these throughputs involve both deploying and licensing our technologies within a purpose-driven and designed ecosystem, including extended and interdependent partners that leverage their infrastructures, capacities, and resources, that are often directly integrated with our system. Our strategic assets for Bioleum include two Wisconsin renewable fuels demonstration facilities, two pilot farms for purpose grown energy crops, a site in Tulsa, Oklahoma for our first fully integrated biorefinery, and for Metals, an existing Nevada-based solar panel recycling demonstration facility and a first-of-its-kind industry-scale solar panel recycling facility that we are currently installing, testing and commissioning. We also own and manage investments in various legacy assets that previously supported our current or prior businesses that we are working to monetize. This includes our legacy gold and silver mining assets, real estate assets and certain non-strategic investments. This includes northern Nevada real estate that we own, control and/or manage comprised of industrial and commercial land, water rights, other direct investments and about seven square miles of patented and unpatented mining claims and surface parcels, some of which contain significant amounts of measured, indicated, and inferred gold and silver mineral resources. Lines of Business Metals Segment Our Metals Segment utilizes solar panel recycling and materials recovery solutions that drive sustainability across the electrification products market. From 2024 through 2026, we operated a permitted, demonstration-scale solar panel recycling facility that delivers environmentally superior, zero-landfilled recycling solutions to support U.S. mineral industries. For the three-months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, this facility generated revenues of $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, from service fees for decommissioning services, recycling and processing end-of-life solar panels, and offtake sales of high-value recycled materials, including aluminum, copper, glass, and concentrated precious metals. We believe this technology deployment is globally leading and positioned to operate a world-class, quality, global solar panel recycling operation and has the potential to set the global standard for solar panel recycling and ultimately, a global worldwide recycling network deployment. Comstock Metals has completed all permitting requirements for its first industry-scale production facility, located on the same campus as the operating demonstration-scale facility. The cost of equipment and installation is estimated to be approximately $14 million. Equipment arrival and installation began in the first quarter of 2026, and commissioning of the plant is expected to be completed in the second quarter with operations coming on-line shortly thereafter. This plant is expected to scale to a production capacity to over 3 million panels per year representing up to 100,000 tons of processed waste materials per year. This strategically located facility will enable the expeditious transition of proven processes from commercial demonstration to full-scale production. The industry-scale facility is expected to enhance our ability to meet the rapid and continuously growing demand for domestically recovered metals. Comstock Metals has selected and submitted state-level permits for a second industry-scale production facility in southern Nevada. Our plan supports the creation of a more robust domestic supply chain for critical materials by innovating and scaling sustainable recycling technologies. The Company plans to build up to seven facilities in the United States over the next five years and support American energy and resource independence while simultaneously delivering significant economic and environmental value. Our Metals Segment's 2026 objectives included (1) finalizing commercial plant equipment installation, (2) commissioning of commercial plant, (3) securing larger and longer terms supply contracts (4) select site number two, three and four and begin permitting for site number two, (5) ensure financing for Comstock Metals to sufficiently fund the construction and commissioning of the Company’s second industry-scale facility (6) ordering all of the industry-scale equipment for our second industry-scale facility, (7) finalize the design for downstream recovery of the solar tailings, (8) extend and operate an upgrading line capable of making high specification glass materials and metallurgical grade Silicon metal from scrap OEM materials, and (9) operate one ton per day pilot that can recover silver products and initially create concentrated “other metal” slurries we will use for subsequent Dore’ production. We believe we are on track for completing all of our 2026 objectives. Mining Segment Our Mining Segment is administered by our wholly owned subsidiaries, Comstock Mining LLC, Comstock Processing LLC and various other local subsidiaries that collectively own approximately seven square miles of patented mining claims, unpatented mining claims and surface parcels in Nevada, comprising the Comstock Mineral Estate. 26 Table of Contents On December 18, 2024 and amended on June 6, 2025, the Company executed a membership interest purchase agreement (the “Mackay MIPA”) with Mackay Precious Metals Inc. (“Mackay”) pursuant to which the Company sold all of its right, title, and interest in its wholly owned subsidiary Comstock Northern Exploration LLC, and the Company's 25% interest in Pelen Limited Liability Company (“Pelen”), for an aggregate purchase price of $2,950,000. Pursuant to a royalty agreement between the Company and Mackay, dated December 18, 2024 (the “Mackay Royalty Agreement”) the Company was to receive a 1.5% royalty of Net Smelter Returns (as such term is defined in the Mackay Royalty Agreement). On January 9, 2026, the Company and Mackay entered into a Royalty Purchase and Sale Agreement, wherein the Company sold to Mackay 100% of the Company’s right, title, and interest in and to a 1.5% net smelter returns royalty covering certain patented and unpatented mining claims and leased properties located in Storey County, Nevada, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,100,000, all of which was received on or before January 20, 2026. On February 22, 2026, the Company agreed to a minor modification to the non-compete language associated with the prior purchase of properties by Mackay and received an additional $300,000 in consideration from Mackay. The Company recognized the purchase price of $1,100,000 and the additional $300,000 received in connection with the non-compete modification as gain on sale of royalty rights in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the first quarter of 2026, the Company committed a plan to sell the mining assets and related mining entities. The related assets and liabilities were classified as Held for Sale and $22,732,293 was classified as Assets Held for Sale and $6,651,319 was classified as Liabilities Held for Sale on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026. Our Mining Segment's 2026 objectives are focused on (1) monetizing our mining assets, (2) maximizing the associated cash proceeds and potential retained upside and (3) realizing the ongoing cost savings benefits from a realigned, simpler and more focused enterprise. We believe we are on track for completing all of our 2026 objectives. Fuels Segment - Bioleum Corporation Our Fuels Segment is administered by Bioleum and we hold an investment in Bioleum, through our Preferred Series 1 equity position. Bioleum seeks to deliver advanced lignocellulosic biomass refining solutions that set new industry standards for the production of cellulosic ethanol, gasoline, renewable diesel, sustainable aviation fuel, and other renewable Bioleum™ fuels, with extremely low carbon intensity scores of 15 and market-leading yields of up to 125 gallons per dry metric ton of feedstock (on a gasoline gallon equivalent basis), depending on feedstock, site conditions, and other process parameters. In December 2025, Bioleum completed the acquisitions of Hexas Biomass Inc. (“Hexas”) (see Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) and substantially all of the patents and other intellectual property assets of RenFuel K2B AB (“RenFuel IP”), including RenFuel IP’s patented catalytic esterification process to refine Bioleum’s proprietary biointermediates. Bioleum is now capable of producing its own purpose grown energy crops used in producing our liquid fuels applications with proven yields exceeding 25 to 30 dry metric tons per acre per year. The combination of Bioleum’s high yielding refining platform and Hexas’ high yielding energy crops enables the production of enough feedstock to produce upwards of 100 barrels (at 42 gallons per barrel) of fuel per acre per year, with regenerative practices that can effectively transform marginal agricultural lands into perpetual “drop-in sedimentary oilfields” with the potential to dramatically boost regional energy security and rural economies. Bioleum plans to contribute to domestic energy dominance by directly building, owning, and operating a network of Bioleum refineries in the U.S., starting with its planned first 400,000 barrel per year commercial demonstration facility in Oklahoma. Bioleum will also license its advanced feedstock and refining solutions to third parties for additional production in global markets. Bioleum does not currently generate revenue. Bioleum operates two complementary and interdependent pilot facilities, including the Wausau Facility, and the Madison Facility. Bioleum continues innovating its existing commercial process for the purpose of advancing its technological readiness, stabilizing and increasing its market-leading yields, further decreasing carbon intensities, and driving costs down in the longer-term pursuit of fossil parity. Bioleum’s innovations group has further partnered with other industry leading technologists, including the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Emerging Fuels Technologies Inc., and others with sponsored research, licensing, and other agreements. On February 28, 2025, the Company entered into a series of definitive agreements, later assigned to Bioleum, with subsidiaries of Marathon Petroleum Corporation (“Marathon”), involving the purchase of $14,000,000 in Bioleum equity as part of the Series A Financing subject to a $700,000,000 valuation cap. The purchase price includes $1,000,000 in cash and $13,000,000 in payment-in-kind assets comprised of equipment, related intellectual properties, and other materials located at Marathon’s former renewable fuel demonstration facility in Madison, Wisconsin. In May 2025, Bioleum also completed the initial $20 million closing of its Series A preferred equity offering (“Series A Financing”). Bioleum also plans to complete its Series A Financing during the first half of 2026 and commence project equity and debt financing activities that includes an allocation of up to $160 million from the State of Oklahoma in project activity bonds for the construction of its planned first 400,000 barrel per year facility in Oklahoma. Strategic Investments Segment We own and manage several investments and projects that are strategic to our plans and ability to produce and maximize throughput in our Metals and Mining Segments, that are held for the purpose of complementing or enhancing our mission of accelerating the commercialization of hard technologies for the energy transition and creating value but that are not a component of such other segments or otherwise have distinct operating activities.

Revenue and costs of sales in future periods will vary significantly depending on a number of factors, including the amount of solar panels that we recycle and the amount of renewable energy technology solutions that we license and sell, lease revenues on our real properties, the market prices for those services, the extent to which we secure and collect reasonable royalties, the degree to which we can provide event-driven engineering services, and the costs associated with each component of the aforementioned revenues. Cost of goods sold for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 decreased $286,986 primarily due to the prior year ramp up of our commercial demonstration facility operating for our metal recycling operations. Selling, general and administrative expense for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $3,310,308 to $6,568,773 from $3,258,465 in the comparable 2025 period, primarily as a result of higher employee-related costs of $1,539,177 due to higher headcount in 2026 compared to 2025 as we ramp up our metals recycling and biofuels businesses and a payment for incentive compensation of $263,750 in February 2026, compared to a prior year adjustment to lower the 2024 accrued incentive compensation for $600,000, higher rent expense of $525,537 also due to leasing our industry-scale metal recycling facility in Silver Springs, NV and our renewable fuels pilot facilities in Madison, WI. Variance also attributed to higher consulting fees of $388,813, higher legal fees of $225,039, higher director fees of $196,658, higher marketing expense of $128,260 and higher utilities of $119,551. Research and development expenses for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $1,207,676 to $2,096,242 from $3,303,918 in the comparable 2025 period, primarily related to lower rent expense of $1,564,654 attributed to the AST research and development rent of $1,487,476 paid in March 2025 and lower research and development costs for renewable fuel associated projects of $217,920; offset by higher employee-related costs of $566,991 due to higher headcount in 2026 compared to 2025. 28 Table of Contents Depreciation and amortization for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $1,016,000 to $1,391,384 from $375,384 in the comparable 2025 period, primarily from higher amortization for intangible asset additions in 2025 and higher depreciation for property, plant and equipment additions in 2025 including the Bioleum Madison facility. In 2026, we recognized a gain on the sale of royalty rights of $1,400,010 (see Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Interest expense for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $511,151 to $147,993 from $659,144 in the comparable 2025 period, primarily due to lower interest and amortization in 2026 compared to in 2025 due to the payoff of obligations. Interest income for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $559,195 to $655,304 from $96,109 in the comparable 2025 period, higher interest income related to our cash sweep account and $237,415 of interest income related to the SSOF advances (see Note 4 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Change in the fair value of our derivative instruments for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 decreased by $468,788 to a loss of $722,015 from a loss of $1,190,803 in the comparable 2025 period, resulting from a decrease in the Company's share price in connection with potential make whole obligations for minimum value commitments on the Company’s common stock and the change in fair value of conversion option derivatives. In 2025, loss on the conversion of debt to equity of $1,196,880 was attributed to the 2025 Kips Bay Note. In 2025, gain on extinguishment of liability of $845,000 was attributed to the restructuring of LINICO acquisition-related payable. Other income (expense), net for the three-months ended March 31, 2026 were $225,970, primarily consisting of losses from our equity method investments of $251,844. Other income (expense), net for the three-months ended March 31, 2025 were $50,535, primarily consisting of gain from our equity method investments of $41,438. OUTLOOK Comstock Metals has established the goal of s etting the global standard for solar panel recycling . Our process creates no waste, no landfilled materials, and results in clean recycled products safe for reuse. Bioleum seeks to commercialize technologies, systems and supply chains that produce renewable fuels from waste, purpose grown energy crops and other forms of woody biomass, enabling and integrating agricultural and clean energy economics. The growth opportunities for both Comstock Metals and Bioleum have and continue developing beyond our original plans, and we have now realigned both the organizations and their respective capital bases with some of the most sophisticated partners for investment, feedstocks, technologies, operations, and offtakes, including significant investments. The Company’s corporate objectives for 2026 include: • Monetize our legacy mineral and mining properties, plants and equipment; • Secured sufficient power sources for hyper-scale data center developments on our lands in Silver Springs, NV; • Restructure, align and expand the ownership in the SSOF and position for high-value monetization; • Monetize all other legacy, non-core real estate in Silver Springs, NV; and • Support Bioleum development, including the integration and commercialization of Hexas. The Company’s progress to date has now resulted in two, fully dedicated, high-growth potential companies: our Nevada-based renewable metals operation with expanding, multiple, industry-scale production sites and our Oklahoma-headquartered Bioleum Corporation, with major research, development and pilot production operations based in Wausau and Madison, Wisconsin and Hexas Biomass farming and purpose grown energy crop solutions in Olympia, Washington. Comstock Metals Comstock Metals has now been operating its first commercial demonstration facility for nearly two years and in January of 2026, received the final permits for the first industry-scale photovoltaic recycling facility in northern Nevada. Comstock Metals has also selected its second site in the southern part of the State of Nevada. These industry-scale facilities are designed for recycling up to 3.3 million panels (or approximately 100,000 tons) of annual capacity, per production line, with operations for the first facility commencing post first and second quarter 2026 commissioning activities so operations can commence in the second quarter 2026. Additional site selection activities are ongoing for the next five industry-scale facilities (that is, industry-scale recycling facilities #3-#7) and multiple associated storage sites and at least one centralized, industrial scale refining facility capable of handling the metals-rich tailings produced by its recycling facilities. The Company's Metals objectives for 2026 include: • Receive, deploy, assemble and commission our first industry-scale facility in Silver Springs, NV; • Operate our first industry-scale facility in Silver Springs profitably; • Secure additional Master Service Agreements with national and regional customers; • Advance development efforts, with partners, to recover more and higher-purity materials from recycled streams; • Select and secure additional sites, expand storage capabilities and secure permits for these additional sites; • Complete site selection for at least three additional solar panel recycling locations and commence permitting; • Upgraded downstream production lines for enhanced recoveries, including high specification glass and silver; • Submit permits for our second industry-scale facility in southern NV; and • Procure our second industry-scale recycling equipment and processing facility and commence commissioning. 29 Table of Contents The capital expenditures for each of the first and second facilities with 100,000 tons of annual capacity are expected to be approximately $14 million each, which includes expanded storage. Master Service Agreements are being signed with major utility and electronic recycling aggregators across the U.S. and particularly in the southwest regions including California, Arizona and Nevada. Future revenue growth will depend on the rate of customer replacements, pricing, and operating performance as the Company scales production. Comstock Mining Comstock Mining has amassed the single largest known land position within the Comstock mineral district, including an extensive repository of drilling data, engineering, and gold and silver resources, including the Lucerne and Dayton resources. Our Mining Segment's 2026 objectives are focused on (1) monetizing our mining assets, (2) maximizing the associated cash proceeds and (3) realizing the ongoing cost savings benefits from a realigned and more focused enterprise. We believe we are on track for completing all of our 2026 objectives. Bioleum Bioleum is actively engaged in the expansion of its pilot production facilities and the planning for its first commercial demonstration facilities and the associated supply chain participants (including feedstock, site selection, engineering, construction and offtake). Bioleum’s objectives for 2026 include: • Complete a “Series B” equity financing for Bioleum; • Deploy a Hexas-based, commercial demonstration fuel farm; • Expand integrated pilot production capabilities to up to five barrels per week of intermediates and fuels; • Commercialize at least one major new project for purpose grown feedstock applications; • Commercialize at least one major new project for renewable fuel applications; • Commercialize at least one major project that integrates our technology solutions into existing production platforms; and • Advance our innovation and development efforts toward even higher yields, lower costs and lower capital. Bioleum also offers integrations of its solutions into existing agriculture, forestry, pulp and paper, ethanol, and existing petroleum infrastructures to generate additional capacities, revenues, technical services, engineering and royalties. The plans also include integrating Bioleum’s high yield Bioleum refining platform with Hexas’ high yield energy crops to provide enough feedstock to produce upwards of 100 barrels of fuel per acre per year, effectively transforming agricultural lands into perpetual “drop-in sedimentary oilfields” with the potential to dramatically boost domestic energy resources. Strategic Investments Investment in Green Li-ion Green Li-ion continues making meaningful progress in the development and deployment of its system that remanufactures critical PCAM, having now deployed its first commercial battery remanufacturing facility from fully recycled battery materials deployed. The Company intends to sell the remaining 35,662 Green Li-ion preferred shares as soon as Green Li-ion experiences a liquidity event, subject to market conditions. Investments in other non-mining real estate, water rights and securities The Company has announced plans for monetizing its mining, non-mining real estate and water rights as soon as practical, also subject to market conditions. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our financial position and liquidity are based on our net sources of capital from financing as generally compared to our net uses of capital from investing activities and ultimately, our ability to provide or use cash flows from or in our operations. Our cash balances at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were $52,967,801 and $16,951,645, respectively, with $3,891,945 representing Bioleum’s total cash balance at March 31, 2026. The Company had current assets of $76,967,528 and current liabilities of $17,074,453, representing working capital excess of $59,893,075 at March 31, 2026. The current liabilities include $3,726,467 of accrued expenses, including but not limited to $1,284,022 for certain research and development payables, $877,629 representing the current portion of the Flux Photon earn-out payable, and $1,068,187 for accrued payroll and related expenses. The Company intends to fund our operations over the next twelve months from existing cash and cash equivalents, planned sales of non-strategic assets and other investments, sales and deferred revenue from our solar panel recycling business, and issuance of subsidiary-level equity (that is, by Bioleum Corporation). Based on these existing and expected funding sources, management believes we will have sufficient funds to sustain our operations and meet our commitments under our investment agreements during the 12 months following the date of issuance of the consolidated financial statements included herein. While we have been successful in the past in obtaining the necessary capital to support our operations, including registered equity financings from our existing shelf registration statement, non-registered equity placements, non-registered equity issued directly from certain subsidiaries, borrowings, and various other means, there is no assurance we will be able to obtain additional equity capital or other financing, if needed. Our primary source of liquidity during the first three-months of 2026 and 2025 was cash from financing activities. During the three-months ended March 31, 2026, we generated $56,371,850 in cash from our financing activities and we used $5,823,158 and $14,532,536, respectively, in cash in our operating and investing activities. During the three-months ended March 31, 2025, we generated $9,731,350 in cash from our financing activities and we used $4,962,518 and $1,816,330, respectively, in cash in our operating and investing activities. 30 Table of Contents The Company continues commercializing its metals recycling lines of business. Comstock Metals has received all permits and is currently commissioning its first industry scale facility, with a capacity of up to 100,000 tons of processed material per year, for capital expenditures of approximately $14 million, including the expansion its existing storage capacity, which is also well under way. The first industry scale facility was funded from equity proceeds. Future industry scale facilities and metal recovery capacities will be funded from prior equity proceeds and future debt proceeds, as needed, including direct term loans or industrial bonds and/or other alternative qualified loan financings. Comstock Metals expects to have at least three industry scale facilities operating with up to 100,000 tons of annual capacity coming online over the next three years (2026 through 2028), with up to four additional industry-scale facilities and expansions and strategically located storage areas that are also being planned across the U.S. markets. The Company has increasing access to a number of alternative capital resources, including $20 million in proceeds to date from the Bioleum Preferred Series A offering, $92.0 million in gross proceeds from two recent CMPO equity raises, various grant sources, including a recent $3.0 million grant from the State of Oklahoma, and various planned asset sales in 2026 and 2027. The Company is also planning additional “Series B” direct equity investment into Bioleum during 2026, from various known strategic and other investors directly into Bioleum. On January 28, 2026, the Company announced a Confidentially Marketed Public Offering (“CMPO”) with Titan Partners Group LLC (“Titan Partners”). The Company raised $50 million in gross proceeds before underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. On January 30, 2026, the Company issued 18,181,819 registered shares of its common stock at a price of $2.75 per share for $50,000,002 and received net proceeds of $46,140,002 pursuant to the equity offering on January 28, 2026. On March 3, 2026, Titan Partners exercised their over-allotment option and placed an additional 2,727,272 registered shares of our common stock at a price of $2.75 per share for additional gross proceeds of $7,499,998 (net proceeds of $6,937,498). Risks to our liquidity could result from future operating expenditures above management’s expectations, including but not limited to variable and fixed costs associated with solar recycling, research and development, capital expenditures and expansions, selling, general and administrative expenses, and investment related expenditures in excess of anticipated sale proceeds from our non-strategic assets and other investments, declines in the market value of properties planned for sale, or declines in the share price of our common stock that would adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. If we were unable to obtain any necessary additional funds, this could have an immediate material adverse effect on liquidity and raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In such case, we could be required to limit or discontinue certain business plans, activities or operations, reduce or delay certain capital expenditures or investments, or sell certain assets or businesses. There can be no assurance that we would be able to take any such actions on favorable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2025 Form 10-K. ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market Prices Changes in the market price of commodities, including precious metals, critical metals and oil and gas may significantly affect our future profitability and cash flow. Metal and fuel prices fluctuate widely due to factors such as: demand, global production levels, supply chain constraints, investor sentiment, central bank reserves, global conflicts and the value of the U.S. dollar and other currencies. Interest Rate Risk The interest rates on our existing long-term debt borrowings are fixed, and as a result, interest due on borrowings are not impacted by changes in market-based interest rates. There have been no material changes in the market risks discussed in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES A.
