UNITED STATES ANTIMONY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

JuneSeptember 30, 2022

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

AGAU Mines, Inc., predecessor of United States Antimony Corporation (“USAC” or “the Company”), was incorporated in June 1968 as a Delaware corporation to mine gold and silver. USAC was incorporated in Montana in January 1970 to mine and produce antimony products. In June 1973, AGAU Mines, Inc. was merged into USAC. In December 1983, the Company suspended its antimony mining operations when it became possible to purchase antimony raw materials more economically from foreign sources. The principal business of the Company has been the production and sale of antimony products.

 

During 2000, the Company formed a 75% owned subsidiary, Bear River Zeolite Company (“BRZ”), to mine and market zeolite and zeolite products from a mineral deposit in southeastern Idaho. In 2001, an operating plant was constructed at the zeolite site and zeolite production and sales commenced. During 2002, the Company acquired the remaining 25% of BRZ and continued to produce and sell zeolite products.

 

During 2005, the Company formed a 100% owned subsidiary, Antimonio de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“AM”), to explore and develop potential antimony properties in Mexico.

 

During 2006, the Company acquired 100% ownership in United States Antimony, Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“USAMSA”), which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

In 2018, the Company acquired 100% ownership in Stibnite Holding Company US Inc. (previously Lanxess Holding Company US Inc.), Antimony Mining and Milling US LLC (previously Lanxess Laurel US LLC), a Delaware limited liability company and Lanxess Laurel de Mexico, S.A. de C.V (“Lanxess Laurel Mexico”), a Mexico corporation, both of which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

In its operations in Montana, the Company produces antimony oxide, antimony metal, and precious metals. Antimony oxide is a fine, white powder that is used primarily in conjunction with a halogen to form a synergistic flame-retardant system for plastics, rubber, fiberglass, textile goods, paints, coatings and paper. Antimony oxide is also used as a color fastener in paint, as a catalyst for production of polyester resins for fibers and film, as a catalyst for production of polyethylene pthalate in plastic bottles, as a phosphorescent agent in fluorescent light bulbs, and as an opacifier for porcelains. The Company also sells antimony metal for use in bearings, storage batteries and ordnance.

 

In its operations in Idaho, the Company produces zeolite, a group of industrial minerals used in a variety of purposes including soil amendment and fertilizer. Zeolite is also used for water filtration, sewage treatment, nuclear waste and other environmental cleanup, odor control, gas separation and other miscellaneous applications.

 

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of its financial position as of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, and its results of operations for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, and 2021, and cash flows for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 and 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021, was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. Operating results for the three and six monthnine-month periods ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

 

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022.

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to U.S. GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

UNITED STATES ANTIMONY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

JuneSeptember 30, 2022

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform prior periods’ amounts to the current presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the results of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as previously reported.

 

COVID -19

 

The Company’s operations and business have experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading throughout the United States and elsewhere, causing disruptions to the Company’s business operations and management. These disruptions are most evident in the Company’s ability to retain and house employees and properly manage them while maintaining proper social distancing and with delays in obtaining materials and supplies.

 

The effects of the continued outbreak of COVID-19 and related government responses could also include extended disruptions to supply chains and capital markets, reduced availability of contractors and a prolonged reduction in economic activity. These effects could have a variety of adverse impacts on the Company, including its ability to conduct operations.

 

The Company has taken steps to mitigate the potential risks to suppliers and employees posed by the spread of COVID-19, including work from home policies where appropriate. The Company will continue to monitor developments affecting both its workforce and contractors, and will take additional precautions as necessary. The ultimate impact of COVID-19 depends on factors beyond management’s knowledge or control, including its duration and third-party actions to contain its spread and mitigate its public health effects. Therefore, the Company cannot estimate the potential future impact to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows, but the impacts could be material.

 

Investments

 

The Company determines the appropriate classification of investments at the time of acquisition and re-evaluates such determinations at each reporting date. Equity securities that have a readily determinable fair value are carried at fair value determined using Level 1 fair value measurement inputs with the change in fair value recognized as unrealized gain (loss) in the consolidated statement of operations each reporting period. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recognized on a specific identification basis.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

 

NOTE 3– EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) is computed as net income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options and warrants.

NOTE 10 – INCOME AND OTHER TAXES

Mexican Tax Assessment

In 2015, the Mexican tax authority (“SAT”) initiated an audit of the USAMSA’s 2013 income tax return. In October 2016, as a result of its audit, SAT assessed the Company $13.8 million pesos, which was approximately $666,400 in U.S. Dollars (“USD”) as of December 31, 2016. SAT’s assessment was based on the disallowance of specific costs that the Company deducted on the 2013 USAMSA income tax return. The assessment was settled in 2018 with no assessment against the Company.

In early 2019, the Company was notified that SAT re-opened its assessment of USAMSA’s 2013 income tax return and, in November 2019, SAT assessed the Company $16.3 million pesos, which was approximately $795,000 USD as of December 31, 2021.

UNITED STATES ANTIMONY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

JuneSeptember 30, 2022

 

Management reviewed the 2019 assessment notice from SAT and, similar to the earlier assessment, believes the findings have no merit. An appeal was filed by the Company in November 2019 suspending SAT from taking immediate action regarding the assessment. The Company posted a guarantee of the amount in March 2020 as is required under the appeal process. In August 2020, the Company filed a lawsuit against SAT for resolution of the process and, in December 2020, filed closing arguments.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Mexican court ruled against the Company in the above matter. The Company has appealed the ruling. As of September 30, 2022, the updated SAT assessment was approximately $21.3 million pesos, which was approximately $1.1 million USD for $285,000 of unpaid income taxes and $815,000 of interest and penalties.

As of September 30, 2022, management assessed the possible outcomes for this tax audit and believes, based on discussions with its tax attorney in Mexico, that the most likely outcome will be that the Company will be successful in its appeal resulting in no tax due. Management determined that no amount should be accrued at September 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021 relating to this potential tax liability. There can be no assurance that the Company’s ultimate liability, if any, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

If an issue addressed during the SAT audit is resolved in a manner inconsistent with management expectations, the Company will record changes to tax attributes, recognize penalties in general and administrative expense, interest will be recorded as interest expense and record the tax expense associated with the assessment.

NOTE 911 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company follows U.S. GAAP guidance in determining its accrual and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies, and evaluate such accruals and contingencies for each reporting period.

Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

 

From time to time, the Company is assessed fines and penalties by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). Using appropriate regulatory channels, management may contest these proposed assessments.

The Puerto Blanco mill and the Madero smelter at the Company’s Mexico operation bring antimony up to an intermediate or finished stage, which may be sold directly or shipped to the United States operation for finishing at the Thompson Falls, Montana plant. The Puerto Blanco mill in Mexico is the site of our crushing and flotation plant, and a cyanide leach plant which will recover precious metals after the ore goes through the crushing and flotation cycles. A precious metals recovery plant is operated in conjunction with the antimony processing plant at Thompson Falls, Montana, where a 99% precious metals mix will be produced. The zeolite operation produces zeolite near Preston, Idaho. Almost all of the sales of products from the United States antimony and zeolite operations are to customers in the United States, although the Company does have a sales operation in Canada.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

History

 

United States Antimony Corporation, or USAC, was incorporated in Montana in January 1970 to mine and produce antimony products. In December 1983, we suspended antimony mining operations but continued to produce antimony products from domestic and foreign sources. In April 1998, we formed United States Antimony SA de CV or USAMSA, to mine and smelt antimony in Mexico. Bear River Zeolite Company, or BRZ, was incorporated in 2000, and it is mining and producing zeolite in southeastern Idaho. On August 19, 2005, USAC formed Antimonio de Mexico, S. A. de C. V. to explore and develop antimony and silver deposits in Mexico. Our principal business is the production and sale of antimony, silver, gold, and zeolite products. On May 16, 2012, we started trading on the NYSE MKT (now NYSE AMERICAN) under the symbol UAMY.

 

Antimony Division

 

Our antimony smelter and precious metals plant is located in the Burns Mining District of Sanders County, Montana, approximately 15 miles west of Thompson Falls, MT. We hold 2 patented mill sites where the plant is located. We have no “proven reserves” or “probable reserves” of antimony.antimony, as these terms are defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-K Subpart 1300. Environmental restrictions preclude mining at this site.

 

Mining was suspended in December 1983, because antimony could be purchased more economically from foreign sources.

 

For 2021, and since 1983, we relied on foreign sources for raw materials, and there are risks of interruption in procurement from these sources and/or volatile changes in world market prices for these materials that are not controllable by us. We have sources of antimony in Mexico but we are still depending on foreign companies for raw material in the future. We expect to receive raw materials from our owned and leased properties for 2022 and later years. We continue working with suppliers in North America, Central America, and South America.

 

We currently own 100% of the common stock, equipment, and the leases on real property of United States Antimony, Mexico S.A. de C.V. or “USAMSA”, which was formed in April 1998. We currently own 100% of the stock in Antimony de Mexico SA de CV (ADM) which owns the San Miguel concession of the Los Juarez property. USAMSA has two divisions, (1) the Madero smelter in Coahuila, (2) the Puerto Blanco flotation mill and oxide circuit in Guanajuato. ADM possesses the Los Juarez mineral deposit.

 

In our existing operations in Montana, we produce antimony oxide, antimony metal, and precious metals. Antimony oxide is a fine, white powder that is used primarily in conjunction with a halogen to form a synergistic flame-retardant system for plastics, rubber, fiberglass, textile goods, paints, coatings and paper. Antimony oxide is also used as a color fastener in paint, as a catalyst for production of polyester resins for fibers and film, as a catalyst for production of polyethylene pthalate in plastic bottles, as a phosphorescent agent in fluorescent light bulbs, and as an opacifier for porcelains. We also sell antimony metal for use in bearings, storage batteries and ordnance.

Table of Contents

 

We estimate (but have not independently confirmed) that our present share of the domestic market and international market for antimony oxide products is approximately 4% and less than 1%, respectively. We are the only significant U.S. producer of antimony products, while China supplies 92% of the world antimony demand. We believe we are competitive both domestically and world-wide due to the following:

 

 

·

We have a reputation for quality products delivered on a timely basis.

 

 

 

 

·

We have the only two operating, permitted, antimony smelters in North and Central America.

 

 

 

 

·

We are the only domestic producer of antimony products.

 

 

 

 

·

We can ship on short notice to domestic customers.

 

 

 

 

·

We are vertically integrated, with raw materials from our own mines, mills, and smelter in Mexico, along with the raw materials from exclusive supply agreements we have with numerous ore and raw material suppliers.

 

 

 

 

·

Our smelter in Coahuila is the largest operating antimony smelter in Mexico or the United States with a current maximum capacity of about 32,600 pounds of feed per day and permitting for 50% to 70% expansion.

 

Zeolite Division

 

We own 100% of Bear River Zeolite Company, (BRZ, an Idaho corporation) that was incorporated on June 1, 2000. BRZ has a lease with Webster Farm, L.L.C. that entitles BRZ to surface mine and process zeolite on property located near Preston, Idaho, in exchange for a royalty payment. In 2010 the royalty payment was adjusted to $10 per ton sold. The current minimum annual royalty is $60,000. In addition, BRZ has more zeolite on U.S. Bureau of Land Management land. The Company pays various royalties on the sale of zeolite products. William Raymond and Nancy Couse are paid a royalty that varies from $1 to $5 per ton. On a combined basis, royalties vary from 8%-13% of sales. Shortly after inception BRZ constructed a processing plant on the property which improved its productive capacity. Ground-breaking for an additional warehouse to store additional inventory and a shop to service equipment started in 2021 and the warehouse and shop are expected to bewas completed by mid-2022.in the three months ended September 30, 2022. A vertical-shaft-impactor crusher was replaced by a hammer mill for crushing line number 1 in 2021 for increased production rate. A replacement jaw crusher was installed and put into service in 2021. The new jaw crusher was further improved with a variable-speed apron feeder in late 2021 and subsequent and substantial improvements have been made to the jaw crusher in 2022. In 2021, the Company purchased a house in Preston Idaho for the express purpose of housing workers for its zeolite operation.

 

We have no reserves nor resources of zeolite.zeolite, as these terms are defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-K Subpart 1300.

 

“Zeolite” refers to a group of industrial minerals that consist of hydrated aluminosilicates that hold cations such as calcium, sodium, ammonium, various heavy metals, and potassium in their crystal lattice. Water is loosely held in cavities in the lattice. BRZ zeolite is regarded as one of the best zeolites in the world due to its high CEC of approximately 180-220 meq/100 gr., its hardness and high clinoptilolite content, its absence of clay minerals, and its low sodium content. BRZ’s zeolite deposits’ characteristics which make the mineral useful for a variety of purposes including:

 

 

Soil Amendment and Fertilizer. Zeolite has been successfully used to fertilize golf courses, sports fields, parks and common areas, and high value agricultural crops

 

 

 

 

Water Filtration. Zeolite is used for particulate, heavy metal and ammonium removal in swimming pools, municipal water systems, fisheries, fish farms, and aquariums.

 

 

 

 

Sewage Treatment. Zeolite is used in sewage treatment plants to remove nitrogen and as a carrier for microorganisms.

 

 

Nuclear Waste and Other Environmental Cleanup. Zeolite has shown a strong ability to selectively remove strontium, cesium, radium, uranium, and various other radioactive isotopes from solution. Zeolite can also be used for the cleanup of soluble metals such as mercury, chromium, copper, lead, zinc, arsenic, molybdenum, nickel, cobalt, antimony, calcium, silver and uranium.

 

 

 

 

Odor Control. A major cause of odor around cattle, hog, and poultry feed lots is the generation of the ammonium in urea and manure. The ability of zeolite to absorb ammonium prevents the formation of ammonia gas, which disperses the odor.

Table of Contents

 

Gas Separation. Zeolite has been used for some time to separate gases, to re-oxygenate downstream water from sewage plants, smelters, pulp and paper plants, and fish ponds and tanks, and to remove carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide from methane generators as organic waste, sanitary landfills, municipal sewage systems, animal waste treatment facilities, and is excellent in pressure swing apparatuses.

 

 

 

 

Animal Nutrition. According to other research, feeding up to 2% zeolite increases growth rates, decreases conversion rates, and prevents scours. BRZ does not make these claims.

 

 

 

 

Miscellaneous Uses. Other uses include catalysts, petroleum refining, concrete, solar energy and heat exchange, desiccants, pellet binding, horse and kitty litter, floor cleaner and carriers for insecticides, pesticides and herbicides.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the average sales price for antimony increased $5.25 per pound compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. Gross profit per pound increased $1.72 per pound over the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The Company experienced a decrease in production in Q3 due to a temporary decrease in feed for two reasons. First, there was a scheduled shut-down by our North American supplier that was followed by equipment failure at their facility. In addition to this, the supplier reported having difficulties with labor supply in Q3. Second, the decrease in supply corresponded with less sourcing in Mexico during the negotiation phase regarding our purchase option agreement. The same thing that led to a meeting with the owners of the Wadley mine culminating in a purchase option agreement resulted in a bottleneck during this period, namely, the insistence that all purchased ore was done without invoicing and paid for in cash-an arrangement unacceptable to US Antimony.

Both of these problems have been corrected and we now have a record number of tons of ore at our smelter in Madero and are receiving the predicted number of tons of feed from our North American supplier. However, there is a delay between the purchase of raw material and the processing and sale product and this delay has affected Q3 and will affect Q4. The Company has recently received a ton of material for testing to produce antimony metal or oxide. Preliminary results of this test-work are very encouraging. This supplier has about 100 short tons of this material and our processing of it could result in a mutually beneficial arrangement. During the decrease of supply the Company supplemented its feed in Montana from material processed at its smelter in Mexico.

The Company continues making significant improvements to its infrastructure at the Preston Facility. We have purchased a newer dozer with dual ripper attachment (Caterpiller D8K) to aid in the mining as it is clear that our best method of mining is to rip and use blasting to supplement and not vice-versa. Our old D8 is shot and was costing more to repair than it was worth. We have hired a new supervisor and mechanic, Richard Lyon, who is a certified MSHA person and has been doing a spectacular job at the plant and in locating quality rolling stock to replace our aging fleet of equipment for both the mine and the mill. We have purchased a 2,000-gallon water truck for road dust control in the summer months. The shop building is finally complete along with a new 50’ x 100’ warehouse . A new method of dust control is being implemented for testing first in our crusher room based on the pressurization of the room. Depending on its success, the Company plans to implement the same system around all dust-sensitive areas. The Company has located and is in the process of purchasing an excavator for the purpose of loading and removal of ripped or blasted rock and for general use at the mine. A new road serving a new level was completed by our chief miner in q3, Allan Boot. The Company placed a down-payment on a salt-shed for the storage of ore above the jaw crusher and plans to purchase and have built many more to increase our tonnage during the fall and winter months via the elimination of the use of tarps for keeping our stockpiles dry.

As of JuneSeptember 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of hand of $8,369,750$7,716,093 which consisted of $8,312,469$7,658,810 in money market funds and deposit accounts along with $57,281$57,283 of restricted cash.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $745,038$22,916 for the six-monthnine-month period ending JuneSeptember 30, 2022, compared with cash used by operating activities of $2,236,609$2,477,864 during the six-monthnine-month period ended June 20,September 30, 2021. The $2,981,647$2,500,780 change in cash from operating activities is attributable to a decrease in existing inventories coupled with continuingongoing strong revenue from antinomy sales which have more than doubled in the current year.

 

Net cash used by investing activities of $13,775,850$13,685,072 included the purchase of a caterpillar for the Bear River Zeolite operation and ongoing construction of a new warehouse in Preston, ID. The Company also invested $13,500,000 in a managed investment account,bond fund due, seeking to improve its return on investment versus maintaining deposits in a low-interest bearing money market account. The managed investment accountfund invests in primarily US Treasury Bonds and other fixed income funds.

 

Cash flow used by financing activities for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 was $19,767$42,080 compared to a cash flow provided by financing activities of $23,841,057$23,782,557 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021. In 2021, the Company raised $25,132,883$23,342,180 from the issuance of common stock and warrants and $1,790,703 from the exercise of warrants by existing shareholders. This capital raise and warrant exercise was not recurring during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022.

 

For the year ending December 31, 2022, we are planning to use funds acquired from the two stock offerings raised in 2021 to make significant improvements to our operations at Madero, Puerto Blanco, Bear River Zeolite, and Thompson Falls facilities with the goal of increasing production and decreasing costs.

In the past, the Company has been successful in raising required capital from sale of common stock.  As a result of planned operations and potential equity sales and potential debt borrowings, management believes cash flows from operations and existing cash and investments are sufficient to conduct planned operations and meet contractual obligations for the next 12 months.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to its stockholders.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Conclusions of Management Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Page 29 of 33

Table of Contents

 

At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the President and Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operations of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a – 15(e) and Rule 15d – 15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the PEO and the PFO have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as it was determined that there were material weaknesses affecting our disclosure controls and procedures. 

 

Management of the Company believes that these material weaknesses are due to the small size of the Company’s accounting staff. The small size of the Company’s accounting staff may prevent adequate controls in the future, such as segregation of duties, due to the cost/benefit of such remediation. To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of external legal and accounting professionals. As the Company grows, management expects to increase the number of employees, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes during the quarter ended JuneSeptember 30, 2022 in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal controls over financial reporting.
