A ~$1.1B market cap wrapped around a ~$40M-revenue, loss-making smelter — the only US vertically-integrated antimony producer, priced almost entirely on a back-end-loaded $125M federal-ramp promise from a serially-promotional CEO; own the antimony scarcity story, but the equity is a momentum/policy option, not a value asset.

A ~$1.1B market cap wrapped around a ~$40M-revenue, loss-making smelter — the only US vertically-integrated antimony producer, priced almost entirely on a back-end-loaded $125M federal-ramp promise from a serially-promotional CEO; own the antimony scarcity story, but the equity is a momentum/policy option, not a value asset.

Refresh delta (since 2026-06-18)
- Q2 results. Revenue $7.9M against $10.5M in Q2 2025. Gross profit $0.6M (7% margin) against $2.8M (27%). Operating loss $7.0M (including $3.4M of net non-cash items) against break-even. Net income $0.1M against $0.2M, because a $6.8M unrealised gain on the Larvotto equity stake and $0.4M of interest income offset the operating loss. Operating expenses $7.6M against $2.8M. [sec.gov: Form 8-KA filing for something that happened between reports and matters enough to tell shareholders now. filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101538/000110465926094130/tm2622899d1_ex99-1.htm; quarter ended 2026-06-30]
- Antimony pricing and volume. Antimony segment revenue $5.9M against $9.6M. Pounds sold rose about 26% to 428,425 from 340,305, while the average selling price fell about 52% to $13.70 a pound from $28.32; average cost a pound fell about 33% to $13.34 from $19.85. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1, same URL]
- DLA revenue did not land in Q2. The first two Defense Logistics Agency shipments, about 82,000 pounds of antimony metal ingots, were delivered in June 2026 but formally accepted by the DLA in July 2026, so no Q2 revenue was recognised; about $2.6M is expected in Q3. The release's schedule shows shipments 3 and 4 (about 81,000 pounds, about $2.60M) in transit and shipments 5 to 7 (about 126,000 pounds, about $3.97M) waiting on inspection, about $9.17M in total. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1, same URL]
- Zeolite. Revenue $1.9M against $0.9M (+110%); tons sold 6,609 against 3,084. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1, same URL]
- Balance sheet and cash. Cash and cash equivalents $41.4M and held-to-maturity U.S. Treasury securities $20.7M at 2026-06-30 (2025-12-31: $30.5M and $20.4M). Working capital $70.0M (2026-03-31: $35.0M). Inventory $21.6M (2025-12-31: $12.5M). The Larvotto stake was marked at $43.2M at 2026-06-30 ($46.7M at the 2026-08-10 close, per the release). [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1, same URL]
- Equity issuance. In the six months to 2026-06-30 the company sold 4,326,433 shares at the market for gross proceeds of $50,033,307 (weighted average $11.56) and net proceeds of $49,070,838. It also borrowed $5.0M and $10.0M under a $19.0M margin credit line secured by its Treasury Strips in the first and second quarters. [sec.gov: Form 10-QThe quarterly version of the annual report. Lighter, and not audited. filed 2026-08-11, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101538/000110465926094035/uamy-20260630x10q.htm]
- Cash flow and capital spending. Net cash used in operating activities $20.7M for the six months (prior year $2.4M), driven by a $9.6M inventory build. Gross Capital expenditureMoney spent on long-lived things — buildings, machines, servers — rather than on running costs. $22.8M for the six months. A $12.8M milestone payment under the Defense Production Act Title III grant was received in April 2026. [sec.gov: 10-Q filed 2026-08-11, same URL; 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1]
- Buy-back. On 2026-08-19 the board authorised a repurchase programme of up to $100 million of common stock. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-19, exhibit 99.1, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101538/000110465926098593/tm2623553d1_ex99-1.htm]
- Stibnite Hill. To date in 2026 the company has hauled 42 truckloads, about 576 tons of stibnite ore at about 10% antimony, and is running about three truckloads a day (about 42 tons a day), against about 800 tons over 45 days in the 2025 campaign. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-25, exhibit 99.1, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101538/000110465926100539/tm2623553d2_ex99-1.htm]
- Controls. The 10-Q concludes disclosure controls were not effective at 2026-06-30 because of the material weakness reported in the FY2025 Form 10-KA company’s audited annual report to the US regulator. The most complete thing it publishes., and describes remediation hires; it reports no change in internal control during the quarter beyond remediation. [sec.gov: 10-Q filed 2026-08-11, same URL, Part I Item 4]
- Officers. Effective 2026-09-30 Shawn P. Winkler (interim CFO since 2026-05-04) became permanent Chief Financial Officer and Richard R. Isaak's employment was terminated without cause, which the filing says was unrelated to financial results or reporting. On 2026-10-01 the company signed a three-year employment agreement with CEO Gary C. Evans effective 2026-08-01 at a $430,000 base salary. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-10-02, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101538/000110465926113034/tm2626607d2_8k.htm; 8-K filed 2026-10-02, https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/101538/000110465926113036/tm2626607d1_8k.htm]
- Where the new filings meet the carried view (stated as fact, no line changes). The carried FY2026 base case assumes "$95M actual" revenue and says Q1 booked "$6.8M and zero DLA"; Q2 revenue was $7.9M with zero DLA revenue recognised (items 1 and 3), so six-month revenue is about $14.7M. The carried seed catalyst calls the Q2 2026 print "the single most important data point for the thesis"; items 1 to 3 give its facts. The carried seed's price figures rest on market data this delta does not refresh.
What held
- The company still describes itself as the only fully integrated antimony company outside China and Russia, and it commissioned the Radersburg flotation facility and substantially completed the Thompson Falls expansion. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1]
- The DLA contract is delivering: shipments are moving through acceptance, with the first accepted in July 2026. [sec.gov: 8-K filed 2026-08-11, exhibit 99.1]
- The Larvotto stake is still held (marked at $43.2M at 2026-06-30). [sec.gov: 10-Q filed 2026-08-11]
- The controls material weakness remains reported. [sec.gov: 10-Q filed 2026-08-11]
