CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report and the exhibits attached hereto (the “Quarterly Report”) contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable US and Canadian securities laws. Such forward-looking statements concern Energy Fuels Inc.’s (the “Company” or “Energy Fuels”) anticipated results and progress of the Company’s operations in future periods, planned exploration, and, if warranted, development of its properties, plans related to its business, and other matters that may occur in the future. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management.

Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, schedules, assumptions, future events, or performance (often, but not always, using words or phrases such as “expects” or “does not expect,” “is expected,” “anticipates” or “does not anticipate,” “plans,” “estimates” or “intends,” or stating that certain actions, events or results “may,” “could,” “would,” “might,” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made. Energy Fuels believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct, and such forward-looking statements included in, or incorporated by reference into, this Quarterly Report should not be unduly relied upon. This information speaks only as of the date of this Quarterly Report.

Readers are cautioned that it would be unreasonable to rely on any such forward-looking statements and information as creating any legal rights, and that the statements and information are not guarantees and may involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, and that actual results are likely to differ (and may differ materially) and objectives and strategies may differ or change from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements or information as a result of various factors. Such risks and uncertainties include risks generally encountered in the exploration, development, operation, and closure of mineral properties and processing facilities. Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation:


•	risks associated with mineral reserve and resource estimates, including the risk of errors in assumptions or methodologies;


•	risks associated with estimating mineral extraction and recovery, forecasting future price levels necessary to support mineral extraction and recovery, and the Company’s ability to increase mineral extraction and recovery in response to any increases in commodity prices or other market conditions;


•	uncertainties and liabilities inherent to conventional mineral extraction and recovery and/or in-situ uranium recovery operations;


•	geological, technical and processing problems, including unanticipated metallurgical difficulties, less than expected recoveries, ground control problems, process upsets, and equipment malfunctions;


•	risks associated with the depletion of existing mineral resources through mining or extraction, without replacement with comparable resources;


•	risks associated with identifying and obtaining adequate quantities of alternate feed materials and other feed sources required for operation of the White Mesa Mill;


•	risks associated with labor costs, labor disturbances, and unavailability of skilled labor;


•	risks associated with the availability and/or fluctuations in the costs of raw materials and consumables used in the Company’s production processes;


•	risks associated with environmental compliance and permitting, including those created by changes in environmental legislation and regulation, and delays in obtaining permits and licenses that could impact expected mineral extraction and recovery levels and costs;


•	actions taken by regulatory authorities with respect to mineral extraction and recovery activities;


•	risks associated with the Company’s dependence on third parties in the provision of transportation and other critical services;


•	risks associated with the ability of the Company to extend or renew land tenure, including mineral leases and surface use agreements, on favorable terms or at all;


•	risks associated with the ability of the Company to negotiate access rights on certain properties on favorable terms or at all;


•	the adequacy of the Company's insurance coverage;


•	uncertainty as to reclamation and decommissioning liabilities;


•	the ability of the Company’s bonding companies to require increases in the collateral required to secure reclamation obligations;


•	the potential for, and outcome of, litigation and other legal proceedings, including potential injunctions pending the outcome of such litigation and proceedings;


•	the ability of the Company to meet its obligations to its creditors;


•	risks associated with paying off indebtedness at its maturity;


•	risks associated with the Company’s relationships with its business and joint venture partners;


•	failure to obtain industry partner, government, and other third party consents and approvals, when required;


•	competition for, among other things, capital, mineral properties, and skilled personnel;


•	failure to complete proposed acquisitions and incorrect assessments of the value of completed acquisitions;


•	risks posed by fluctuations in share price levels, exchange rates and interest rates, and general economic conditions;


•	risks inherent in the Company’s and industry analysts’ forecasts or predictions of future uranium and vanadium price levels;


•	fluctuations in the market prices of uranium, vanadium and copper, which are cyclical and subject to substantial price fluctuations;


•	risks associated with the Company's existing long-term sales contracts expiring following the Company's 2018 deliveries, and all uranium sales after 2018 being required to be made at spot prices, unless the Company is able to enter into new long-term contracts at satisfactory prices in the future;


•	failure to obtain suitable uranium sales terms at satisfactory prices in the future, including spot and term sale contracts;


•	risks associated with asset impairment as a result of market conditions;


•	risks associated with lack of access to markets and the ability to access capital;


•	the market price of Energy Fuels’ securities;


•	public resistance to nuclear energy or uranium extraction and recovery;


•	risks associated with inaccurate or nonobjective media coverage of the Company's activities and the impact such coverage may have on the public, the market for the Company's securities, government relations, permitting activities and legal challenges, as well as the costs to the Company of responding to such coverage;


•	uranium industry competition, international trade restrictions and the impacts on world commodity prices of foreign state subsidized production;


•	risks associated with the Company's involvement in industry petitions for trade remedies, including the costs of pursuing such remedies and the potential for negative responses or repercussions from various interest groups, consumers of uranium and participants in other phases of the nuclear fuel cycle;


•	risks related to potentially higher than expected costs related to our Nichols Ranch Project and Canyon Project;


•	risks related to our ability to recover copper from our Canyon Project ores;


•	risks related to securities regulations;


•	risks related to stock price and volume volatility;


•	risks related to our ability to maintain our listing on the NYSE American and Toronto Stock Exchanges;


•	risks related to our ability to maintain our inclusion in various stock indices;


•	risks related to dilution of currently outstanding shares, from additional share issuances, depletion of assets or otherwise;


•	risks related to our lack of dividends;


•	risks related to recent market events;


•	risks related to our issuance of additional common shares under our At-the-Market ("ATM") program or otherwise to provide adequate liquidity in depressed commodity market circumstances;


•	risks related to acquisition and integration issues;


•	risks related to defects in title to our mineral properties;


•	risks related to our outstanding debt; and


•	risks related to our securities.

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect our forward-looking statements. Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could affect forward-looking statements are described further under the section heading: Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this Quarterly Report. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there

may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, believed, estimated, or expected. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Except as required by law, we disclaim any obligation to subsequently revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. Statements relating to “Mineral Reserves” or “Mineral Resources” are deemed to be forward-looking statements, as they involve the implied assessment, based on certain estimates and assumptions that the Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources described may be profitably extracted in the future.

We qualify all the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report by the foregoing cautionary statements.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Disclosure of Mineral Resources

The Company is a U.S. Domestic Issuer for United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") purposes, most of its shareholders are U.S. residents and its primary trading market is the NYSE American. However, because the Company is also listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX"), this Quarterly Report contains certain disclosure that satisfies the additional requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ from the requirements of United States’ securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all reserve and resource estimates included in this Quarterly Report, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein, have been prepared in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) classification system. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators (the “CSA”) which establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects.

Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the SEC, and reserve and resource information contained herein, or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report, and in the documents incorporated by reference herein, may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by companies reporting under only United States standards. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the term “resource” does not equate to the term “reserve” under SEC Industry Guide 7. Under United States standards, mineralization may not be classified as a “reserve” unless the determination has been made that the mineralization could be economically and legally produced or extracted at the time the reserve determination is made. Under SEC Industry Guide 7 standards, a “final” or “bankable” feasibility study is required to report reserves; the three-year historical average price, to the extent possible, is used in any reserve or cash flow analysis to designate reserves; and the primary environmental analysis or report must be filed with the appropriate governmental authority.

The SEC’s disclosure standards under Industry Guide 7 normally do not permit the inclusion of information concerning “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” or “Inferred Mineral Resources” or other descriptions of the amount of mineralization in mineral deposits that do not constitute “reserves” by United States standards in documents filed with the SEC. United States investors should also understand that “Inferred Mineral Resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “Inferred Mineral Resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimated “Inferred Mineral Resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources will ever be converted into mineral reserves. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an “Inferred Mineral Resource” exists or is economically or legally mineable.

Disclosure of “contained pounds” or “contained ounces” in a resource estimate is permitted and typical disclosure under Canadian regulations; however, the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute “reserves” by SEC standards as in-place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. The requirements of NI 43-101 for identification of “reserves” are also not the same as those of the SEC, and reserves reported by the Company in compliance with NI 43-101 may not qualify as “reserves” under SEC Industry Guide 7 standards. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable to information made public by companies that report in accordance with United States standards.

6.	LOANS AND BORROWINGS

The contractual terms of the Company’s interest-bearing loans and borrowings, which are measured at amortized cost, and the Company’s convertible debentures which are measured at fair value, are as follows.



	June 30, 2018		December 31, 2017
Current portion of loans and borrowings:
Wyoming Industrial Development Revenue Bond loan (b)	3,512		3,414
Total current loans and borrowings	$	3,512	$	3,414
Long-term loans and borrowings:
Convertible debentures (a)	$	15,538	$	16,636
Wyoming Industrial Development Revenue Bond loan (b)	5,660		7,441
Total long-term loans and borrowings	$	21,198	$	24,077

(a)

On July 24, 2012, the Company completed a bought deal public offering of 22,000 floating-rate convertible unsecured subordinated debentures originally maturing June 30, 2017 (the “Debentures”) at a price of Cdn$1,000 per Debenture for gross proceeds of Cdn$21.55 million (the “Offering”). The Debentures are convertible into Common Shares at the option of the holder. Interest is paid in cash and in addition, unless an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may elect, from time to time, subject to applicable regulatory approval, to satisfy its obligation to pay interest on the Debentures, on the date it is payable under the indenture: (i) in cash; (ii) by delivering sufficient common shares to the debenture trustee, for sale, to satisfy the interest obligations in accordance with the indenture in which event holders of the Debentures will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the proceeds of the sale of such common shares; or (iii) any combination of (i) and (ii).

On August 4, 2016, the Company, by a vote of the Debentureholders, extended the maturity date of the Debentures from June 30, 2017 to December 31, 2020, and reduced the conversion price of the Debentures from Cdn$15.00 to Cdn$4.15 per Common Share of the Company. In addition, a redemption provision was added that will enable the Company, upon giving not less than 30 days' notice to Debentureholders, to redeem the Debentures, for cash, in whole or in part at any time after June 30, 2019, but prior to maturity, at a price of 101% of the aggregate

principal amount redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (less any tax required by law to be deducted) on such Debentures up to but excluding the redemption date. A right (in favor of each Debentureholder) was also added which gave the Debentureholders the option to require the Company to purchase, for cash, on the previous maturity date of June 30, 2017, up to 20% of the Debentures held by the Debentureholders at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount purchased plus accrued and unpaid interest (less any tax required by law to be deducted). In the three months ended June 30, 2017, Debentureholders elected to redeem Cdn$1.13 million ($0.87 million) under this right. No additional purchases are allowed under this right. In addition, certain other amendments were made to the Indenture, as required by the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and with respect to the addition of a U.S. Trustee in compliance therewith, as well as to remove provisions of the Indenture that no longer apply, such as U.S. securities law restrictions.

The Debentures accrue interest, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year at a fluctuating rate of not less than 8.5% and not more than 13.5%, indexed to the simple average spot price of uranium as reported on the UxC Weekly Indicator Price. The Debentures may be redeemed in whole or part, at par plus accrued interest and unpaid interest by the Company between June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2020 subject to certain terms and conditions, provided the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares of the Company on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") during the 20 consecutive trading days ending five days preceding the date on which the notice of redemption is given is not less than 125% of the conversion price.

Upon redemption or at maturity, the Company will repay the indebtedness represented by the Debentures by paying to the debenture trustee in Canadian dollars an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debentures which are to be redeemed or which have matured, as applicable, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

Subject to any required regulatory approval and provided no event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company has the option to satisfy its obligation to repay the Cdn$1,000 principal amount of the Debentures, in whole or in part, due at redemption or maturity, upon at least 40 days’ and not more than 60 days’ prior notice, by delivering that number of common shares obtained by dividing the Cdn$1,000 principal amount of the Debentures maturing or to be redeemed as applicable, by 95% of the volume-weighted average trading price of the common shares on the TSX during the 20 consecutive trading days ending five trading days preceding the date fixed for redemption or the maturity date, as the case may be.

In accordance with the revised terms approved on August 4, 2016, the Company had classified 20% of the principal amount of the Debenture as a current liability at December 31, 2016. Upon expiration of the option at June 30, 2017, the Company reclassified the amount not redeemed as a long term liability. The Debentures are classified as fair value through profit or loss where the Debentures are measured at fair value based on the closing price on the TSX (a Level 1 measurement) and changes are recognized in earnings. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 the Company recorded a gain on revaluation of convertible Debentures of $0.47 million and $0.32 million (June 30, 2017 – gain of $0.15 million and $0.78 million loss for the three and six months ended).

(b)

The Company, upon its acquisition of Uranerz in 2015, assumed a loan through the Wyoming Industrial Development Revenue Bond program (the "Loan"). The Loan has an annual interest rate of 5.75% and is repayable over seven years, maturing on October 15, 2020. The Loan originated on December 3, 2013 and required the payment of interest only for the first year, with the amortization of principal plus interest over the remaining six years. The Loan can be repaid earlier than its maturity date if the Company so chooses without penalty or premium. The Loan is secured by most of the assets of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Uranerz, including mineral properties, the processing facility, and equipment as well as an assignment of all of Uranerz’ rights, title and interest in and to its product sales contracts and other agreements. Uranerz is also subject to dividend restrictions. Principal and interest are paid on a quarterly basis on the first day of January, April, July and October. At June 30, 2018 the loan had an outstanding balance of $9.17 million of which the current portion of the note was $3.51 million.


7.	CAPITAL STOCK

Authorized capital stock

The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares without par value, unlimited Preferred Shares issuable in series, and unlimited Series A Preferred Shares. The Series A Preferred Shares issuable are non-redeemable, non-callable, non-

voting and with no right to dividends. The Preferred Shares issuable in series will have the rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions assigned to the particular series upon the Board of Directors approving their issuance.

Issued capital stock

In the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued 11,215,955 Common Shares under the Company’s “at-the-market” offering (the “ATM”) for net proceeds of $22.05 million.

Share Purchase Warrants

The following table summarizes the Company’s share purchase warrants denominated in US dollars. These warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities as the functional currency of the entity issuing the warrants, Energy Fuels Inc., is Canadian dollars.



Month Issued	Expiry Date	Exercise Price USD$	Warrants Outstanding	Fair value at June 30, 2018
March 2016 (a)	March 14, 2019	3.20	2,515,625	$	308
September 2016 (b)	September 20, 2021	2.45	4,168,750	3,957
				$	4,265

(a) The US dollar based warrants issued in March 2016 are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy (Note 15).

(b) The warrants issued in September 2016 are classified as Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy (Note 15).

The following weighted average assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the $0.31 million of fair value for the 2,515,625 warrants at June 30, 2018.



Risk-free rate	2.33%
Expected life	1.0 years
Expected volatility	39.9%
Expected dividend yield	0.00%


*	Expected volatility is measured based on the Company’s historical share price volatility over the expected life of the warrants.


8.	BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic and diluted loss per share

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share after adjustment for the effects of all potential dilutive common shares, calculated as follows:



	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2018		2017			2018			2017
Income (loss) attributable to shareholders	$	7,149	$	(4,470	)	$	(3,673	)	$	(14,978	)
Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding	77,513,180		70,423,642			77,131,395			69,597,088
Income (loss) per common share	$	0.09	$	(0.06	)	$	(0.05	)	$	(0.22	)

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,
	2018		2017			2018			2017
Income (loss) attributable to shareholders	$	7,149	$	(4,470	)	$	(3,673	)	$	(14,978	)
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding	86,534,484		70,423,642			77,131,395			69,597,088
Income (loss) per common share	$	0.08	$	(0.06	)	$	(0.05	)	$	(0.22	)

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, 9.02 million (June 30, 2017 - 9.10 million) options and warrants and the potential conversion of the Debentures have been excluded from the calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.


9.	SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

The Company, under the 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Compensation Plan”), maintains a stock incentive plan for directors, executives, eligible employees and consultants. Stock incentive awards include employee stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). The Company issues new shares of common stock to satisfy exercises and vesting under all of its stock incentive awards. At June 30, 2018, a total of 8,664,651 Common Shares were authorized for stock incentive plan awards.

Employee Stock Options

The Company, under the Compensation Plan may grant options to directors, executives, employees and consultants to purchase Common Shares of the Company. The exercise price of the options is set as the higher of the Company’s closing share price on the day before the grant date or the five-day volume weighted average price. Stock options granted under the Compensation Plan generally vest over a period of two years or more and are generally exercisable over a period of five years from the grant date not to exceed 10 years. The value of each option award is estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes Option Valuation Model. There were 0.42 million options granted in the six months ended June 30, 2018 (six months ended June 30, 2017 – 0.73 million options). At June 30, 2018, there were 2.34 million options outstanding with 1.95 million options exercisable, at a weighted average exercise price of $3.74 and $4.10 respectively, with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 3.49 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of the fully vested options was $0.16 million.

The fair value of the options granted under the Compensation Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was estimated at the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes Option Valuation Model, with the following weighted-average assumptions:



Risk-free interest rate	2.840
Expected life	5.0 years	*
Expected volatility	59.0
Expected dividend yield	0.00%
Weighted-average expected life of option	5.00
Weighted-average grant date fair value	$0.96


*	Expected volatility is measured based on the Company’s historical share price volatility over a period equivalent to the expected life of the options.

The summary of the Company’s stock options at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and the changes for the fiscal periods ending on those dates is presented below:



	Range of Exercise Prices $	Weighted Average Exercise Price $	Number of Options
Balance, December 31, 2016	2.12 - 15.61	5.69	2,045,143

Balance, June 30, 2018	1.70 - 15.61	3.74	2,336,929

A summary of the status and activity of non-vested stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is as follows:



	Number of shares		Weighted Average Grant- Date Fair Value
Non-vested December 31, 2017	365,180		$	1.20
Granted	422,956		0.91
Vested	(377,087	)	1.06
Forfeited	(20,405	)	0.92
Non-vested June 30, 2018	390,645		$	1.04

Restricted Stock Units

The Company grants RSUs to executives and eligible employees. Awards are determined as a target percentage of base salary and generally vest over periods of three years. Prior to vesting, holders of restricted stock units do not have the right to vote the underlying shares. The RSUs are subject to forfeiture risk and other restrictions. Upon vesting, the employee is entitled to receive one share of the Company’s common stock for each RSU for no additional payment. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of 1.19 million RSUs under the Compensation Plan (June 30, 2017 - 1.13 million).

A summary of the status and activity of non-vested RSUs at June 30, 2018 is as follows:



	RSU
	Number of shares		Weighted Average Grant- Date Fair Value
Non-vested December 31, 2017	1,909,477		$	2.17
Granted	1,191,132		1.70
Vested	(1,486,126	)	2.24
Forfeited	—		—
Non-vested June 30, 2018	1,614,483		$	1.99

The total intrinsic value and fair value of RSUs that vested and were settled for equity in the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $2.41 million (June 30, 2017 – $1.64 million).

The share-based compensation recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.52 million and $1.72 million (three and six months ended June 30, 2017 - $0.74 million and $1.78 million, respectively).

At June 30, 2018, there were $0.16 million and $1.83 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to the unvested stock options and RSU awards, respectively. These costs are expected to be recognized over a period of approximately two years.


10.	INCOME TAXES

As of June 30, 2018, the Company does not believe it is more likely than not that it will fully realize the benefit of the deferred tax assets. As such, the Company recognized a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017. For the six months ending June 30, 2018 the company anticipates having a small amount of taxable income that will result in a decrease to the valuation allowance of $0.03 million due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.


11.	SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The components of other income (expense) are as follows:



	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,

12.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

General legal matters

Other than routine litigation incidental to our business, or as described below, the Company is not currently a party to any material pending legal proceedings that management believes would be likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

White Mesa Mill

In January 2013, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe filed a Petition to Intervene and Request for Agency Action challenging the Corrective Action Plan approved by the State of Utah Department of Environmental Quality (“UDEQ”) relating to nitrate contamination in the shallow aquifer at the White Mesa Mill site. This challenge is currently being evaluated, and may involve the appointment of an administrative law judge to hear the matter. The Company does not consider this action to have any merit. If the petition is successful, the likely outcome would be a requirement to modify or replace the existing Corrective Action Plan. At this time, the Company does not believe any such modification or replacement would materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the scope and costs of remediation under a revised or replacement Corrective Action Plan have not yet been determined and could be significant.

On January 19, 2018, UDEQ renewed, and on February 16, 2018 reissued with minor corrections, the Company’s White Mesa Mill license for another ten years, and Groundwater Discharge Permit for another five years, after which renewal periods further applications for renewal for the license and permit will need to be submitted. During the review period for each application for renewal, the Mill can continue to operate under its then existing license and permit until such time as the renewed license or permit is issued. On March 15, 2018, March 16, 2018 and March 19, 2018, the Grand Canyon Trust, Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and Uranium Watch, respectively, served Petitions for Review challenging UDEQ’s renewal of the license and permit. Then, on May 29, 2018, May 30, 2018 and June 4, 2018, Uranium Watch, the Grand Canyon Trust and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, respectively, filed with UDEQ Requests for Appointment of an Administrative Law Judge, which they subsequently agreed to suspend pursuant to a Stipulation and Agreement with UDEQ, effective June 4, 2018. The Company does not consider these challenges to have any merit and intends to participate with UDEQ in defending against the challenges. If the challenges are successful, the likely outcome would be a requirement to modify the renewed license and/or permit. At this time, the Company does not believe any such modification would materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Canyon Project

In March, 2013, the Center for Biological Diversity, the Grand Canyon Trust, the Sierra Club and the Havasupai Tribe (the “Canyon Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona (the “District Court”) against the Forest Supervisor for the Kaibab National Forest and the U.S. Forest Services ("USFS") seeking an order (a) declaring that the USFS failed to comply with environmental, mining, public land, and historic preservation laws in relation to our Canyon Project, (b) setting aside any approvals regarding exploration and mining operations at the Canyon Project, and (c) directing operations to cease at the Canyon Project and enjoining the USFS from allowing any further exploration or mining-related activities at the Canyon Project until the USFS fully complies with all applicable laws. In April 2013, the Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Preliminary Injunction, which was

denied by the District Court in September, 2013. On April 7, 2015, the District Court issued its final ruling on the merits in favor of the Defendants and the Company and against the Canyon Plaintiffs on all counts. The Canyon Plaintiffs appealed the District Court’s ruling on the merits to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and filed motions for an injunction pending appeal with the District Court. Those motions for an injunction pending appeal were denied by the District Court on May 26, 2015. Thereafter, Plaintiffs filed urgent motions for an injunction pending appeal with the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which were denied on June 30, 2015. The hearing on the merits at the Court of Appeals was held on December 15, 2016. On December 12, 2017, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued its ruling on the merits in favor of the Defendants and the Company and against the Canyon Plaintiffs on all counts. The Canyon Plaintiffs have petitioned the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals for a rehearing en banc. On February 21, 2018, the Court of Appeals ordered the Defendants and the Company to file a response to the Canyon Plaintiffs' petition for a rehearing en banc. Those responses were filed on April 13, 2018 and April 20, 2018, respectively, and the parties are currently awaiting a further determination from the Court of Appeals on the petition. If a rehearing is granted, and the Canyon Plaintiffs are successful on their appeal on the merits, the Company may be required to maintain the Canyon Project on standby pending resolution of the matter. Such a required prolonged stoppage of mining activities could have a significant impact on our future operations.

Daneros Project

On February 23, 2018, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) issued its Environmental Assessment (“EA”), Decision Record, and Finding of No Significant Impact (“FONSI”) relating to the BLM-approved Mine Plan of Operations Modification (“MPOM”) for the expansion of the Company’s Daneros Mine, subject to certain specified requirements. The MPOM allows for expanded mining operations, the reclamation of historic mining disturbances, and the implementation of additional operational and emission controls. On March 29, 2018, the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance and Grand Canyon Trust filed a Notice of Appeal with the Interior Board of Land Appeals (“IBLA”), challenging BLM’s Decision Record, FONSI, MPOM and EA. On April 12, 2018, the Company filed a Motion to Intervene with IBLA, requesting that the Company be allowed intervention as a full party to this appeal and, on May 1, 2018, the Company’s Motion to Intervene was granted by IBLA. On April 18, 2018, the United States Department of Interior (“DOI”) granted Appellants’ request for an extension of time to file a statement of reasons until 30 days from when the IBLA receives the complete Administrative Record (“AR”), which was received on April 26, 2018. On May 22, counsel for the BLM filed an Unopposed Motion to Suspend Briefing Schedule for inadvertently filing an incomplete AR and, on May 29, 2018, DOI granted BLM’s motion. On July 6, 2018, BLM filed its Motion to Replace Incomplete Version of Administrative Record with Complete Version. DOI’s April 18, 2018 grant of Appellants’ request for an extension of time to file a statement of reasons shall commence when the Complete Version is filed.

Surety Bonds

The Company has indemnified third-party companies to provide surety bonds as collateral for the Company’s asset retirement obligation. The Company is obligated to replace this collateral in the event of a default, and is obligated to repay any reclamation or closure costs due. The Company currently has $21.59 million posted against an undiscounted asset retirement obligation of $43.31 million (December 31, 2017 - $22.13 million posted against undiscounted asset retirement obligation of $43.46 million).


13.	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On May 17, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Robert W. Kirkwood and Benjamin Eshleman III to the Board of Directors of the Company.

Mr. Kirkwood is a principal of the Kirkwood Companies, including Kirkwood Oil and Gas LLC, Wesco Operating, Inc., and United Nuclear LLC (“United Nuclear”). United Nuclear, owns a 19% interest in the Company’s Arkose Mining Venture while the Company owns the remaining 81%. The Company acts as manager of the Arkose Mining Venture and has management and control over operations carried out by the Arkose Mining Venture. The Arkose Mining Venture is a contractual joint venture governed by a venture agreement dated as of January 15, 2008 entered into by Uranerz Energy Corporation (a subsidiary of the Company) and United Nuclear (the “Venture Agreement”).

United Nuclear contributed $nil to the expenses of the Arkose Joint Venture based on the approved budget for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Mr. Benjamin Eshleman III is President of Mesteña LLC, which became a shareholder of the Company through the Company’s acquisition of Mesteña Uranium, L.L.C (now Alta Mesa LLC) in June 2016 through the issuance of 4,551,284 common shares of the Company to the direction of the Sellers (of which 4,324,465 common shares of the Company are currently held by the Sellers). In connection with the Purchase Agreement, one of the Acquired Companies, Leoncito Project, L.L.C. entered into an Amended

and Restated Uranium Testing Permit and Lease Option Agreement with Mesteña Unproven, Ltd., Jones Ranch Minerals Unproven, Ltd and Mesteña Proven, Ltd. (collectively the “Grantors”), which requires Leoncito Project, L.L.C., to make a payment in the amount of $0.60 million to the Grantors in June 2019 (of which up to 50% may be paid in common shares of the Company at the Company’s election). At June 30, 2018, the Company has accrued $0.40 million of this liability on the balance sheet. The Grantors are managed by Mesteña LLC.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Alta Mesa Properties held by the Acquired Companies are subject to a royalty of 3.125% of the value of the recovered U₃O₈ from the Alta Mesa Properties sold at a price of $65.00 per pound or less, 6.25% of the value of the recovered U₃O₈ from the Alta Mesa Properties sold at a price greater than $65.00 per pound and up to and including $95.00 per pound, and 7.5% of the value of the recovered U₃O₈ from the Alta Mesa Properties sold at a price greater than $95.00 per pound. The royalties are held by the Sellers, and Mr. Eshleman and his extended family hold all of the ownership interests in the Sellers. In addition, Mr. Eshleman and certain members of his extended family are parties to surface use agreements that entitle them to surface use payments from the Acquired Companies in certain circumstances. The Alta Mesa Properties are currently being maintained on care and maintenance to enable the Company to restart operations as market conditions warrant. Due to the price of U₃O₈, the Company did not pay any royalty payments or surface use payments to the Sellers or to Mr. Eshleman or his immediate family members in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and does not anticipate paying any royalty payments or surface use payments to the Sellers or to Mr. Eshleman or his immediate family members during the remainder of 2018. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, surface use payments from June 2016 through December 31, 2018 have been deferred until June 30, 2019 at which time the Company will pay $1.35 million to settle this obligation. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has accrued $1.08 million of this liability on the balance sheet.


14.	REVENUE RECOGNITION AND CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

Adoption

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted new guidance on revenue from contracts with customers using the modified retrospective method applied to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under the new guidance, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with previous guidance.

We recorded a net decrease to opening accumulated deficit of $2.47 million as of January 1, 2018, for the cumulative impact of adopting the new guidance. The impact primarily related to the change in accounting for disposal contracts, resulting in the recognition of $2.47 million of deferred revenue.



	Balance at December 31, 2017			New Revenue Standard Adjustment			Balance at January 1, 2018
Liabilities
Deferred revenue	$	2,474		$	(2,474	)	$	—
Equity
Accumulated deficit	$	(309,287	)	$	2,474		$	(306,813	)

Under the modified retrospective method of adoption, we are required to disclose the impact to revenues had we continued to follow our accounting policies under the previous revenue recognition guidance. We estimate that there would be no impact to revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 as we did not receive any disposal material which would have been classified as deferred revenue in the period.

Refer to Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements in Management's Discussion and Analysis section for a summary of our significant policies for revenue recognition.


15.	FAIR VALUE ACCOUNTING

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The following tables set forth the fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) by level within the fair value hierarchy as at June 30, 2018. As required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

As of June 30, 2018, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term deposits, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.



	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3		Total
Investments	$	4,697		$	—		$	—	$	4,697
Warrant liabilities	(3,957		)	(308		)	—		(4,265		)
Convertible debentures	(15,538		)	—			—		(15,538		)
	$	(14,798	)	$	(308	)	$	—	$	(15,106	)

The Company's investments are marketable equity securities which are exchange traded, and are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the investments is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company.


16.	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Sale of shares in the Company's ‘At-the-Market’ program (“ATM”).

From July 1, 2018 through August 1, 2018, the Company issued 1.33 million shares for proceeds of $3.49 million using the ATM.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Overview

We provide the raw materials for generation of clean nuclear electricity. Our primary product is a uranium concentrate (“U₃O₈”), or yellowcake, which when further processed will become the fuel for nuclear energy. According to the Nuclear Energy Institute, nuclear energy provides nearly 20% of the total electricity, and 60% of the clean carbon-free energy, generated in the United States. The Company generates revenues from extracting and processing materials for our own account, as well as from toll processing for others.

Our uranium concentrate is produced from multiple sources:


•	Conventional recovery operations at our White Mesa Mill (the "Mill") including:


•	Processing ore from uranium mines;


•	Recycling of uranium bearing materials that are not derived from conventional ore, ("Alternate Feed Materials"); and


•	In-situ recovery (“ISR”) operations.

In addition, the Company has a long history of conventional vanadium recovery at the Mill, when vanadium prices support those activities. The Company is currently expecting to resume vanadium recovery from pond solutions at the Mill in 2018. The Company is also evaluating opportunities for copper recovery from our Canyon Project.

The Mill, located near Blanding Utah, processes ore mined from the Four Corners region of the United States as well as alternate feed materials that can originate worldwide. We have the only operating uranium mill in the United States, which is also the last operating facility left in the U.S. with the near-term ability to resume recovery of vanadium. The Mill is licensed to process an average of 2,000 tons of ore per day and to extract approximately 8.0 million pounds of U₃O₈ per year. The Mill has separate circuits to process conventional uranium and vanadium ores as well as Alternate Feed Materials.

Currently, there are no mines operating in the vicinity of the Mill, due to low uranium prices. The Mill is currently processing alternate feed materials for the recovery of uranium, under multiple toll processing arrangements as well as alternate feed materials for our own account. Additionally, the Mill is recovering dissolved uranium from the Mill’s tailings management system that was not fully recovered during the Mill’s prior thirty-plus years of operations (“Pond Return”). The Company is actively pursuing additional toll and Alternate Feed Materials for processing at the Mill.

The Mill also continues to pursue additional sources of feed materials. For example, a significant opportunity has arisen for the Company to potentially participate in the clean-up of abandoned uranium mines in the Four Corners Region of the U.S. Recently, the U.S. Justice Department and Environmental Protection Agency announced settlements in various forms in excess of $1.5 billion to fund certain clean-up activities on the Navajo Nation. Additional settlements with other parties are also pending. Our Mill is within close trucking distance and is uniquely positioned in this region to receive uranium-bearing materials from these

cleanups and thus recycle the contained U₃O_8, while at the same time permanently disposing of the cleanup materials outside the boundaries of the Navajo Nation. There are no other facilities in the U.S capable of providing this service. Consequently, the Company is actively pursuing these types of opportunities.

The Company’s ISR operations consist of our currently producing Nichols Ranch Project and our standby operation at Alta Mesa. At our Nichols Ranch Project, the Company placed its ninth header house into production in March 2017. In order to save cash and resources, the Company is deferring additional wellfield development until uranium prices recover. The Alta Mesa Project will remain on standby in the current uranium price environment.

We believe the current spot price of uranium does not support production for the majority of global uranium producers and, accordingly, we believe that prices will recover at some point in the future. In addition, as discussed below, on July 18, 2018 upon petition by the Company (and Ur-Energy), the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) initiated an investigation into the effects of uranium imports on U.S. national security. This DOC investigation has the potential to result in trade remedies, including import quotas, which may generate higher prices for U.S. uranium. In anticipation of potential price recoveries, we continue to maintain and advance our resource portfolio. Once prices recover, we stand ready to resume wellfield construction at our Nichols Ranch Project, develop wellfields and resume production at our Alta Mesa facility, as well as mine and process resources from our Canyon Project, Daneros Project, La Sal Project and Whirlwind Project. The Company believes we could start bringing this new production to the market within approximately six to twelve months of a positive production decision. Longer term, we expect to resume production at our conventional mines on standby and develop our large conventional mines at Roca Honda and Henry Mountains.

In addition to resources controlled by Energy Fuels, there are substantial conventional uranium/vanadium mines/projects in the vicinity of our Mill, which as stated above, is the only operating uranium mill in the United States. We expect that as these mines are brought into production we will be able to generate profitable toll milling contracts to process this third party ore.

Uranium Market Update

According to monthly price data from TradeTech LLC (“TradeTech”), uranium spot prices were $21.00 per pound on March 31, 2018. During the quarter, weekly spot prices reported by TradeTech generally rose, reaching a high of $24.00 per pound during the week of June 6, 2018, ending the quarter at $22.75 per pound. TradeTech price data also indicate that long-termU₃O₈prices were unchanged, beginning and ending the quarter at $28.00 per pound. On July 31, 2018, TradeTech reported a spot price of $25.85 per pound and a long-term price of $31.00 per pound. According to TradeTech, the April 2018 market was “quite active” in terms of volume, and May 2018 “spot market activity by volume increased considerably”, including participation by utilities, traders, producers and financial entities. TradeTech stated that “[t]his notable level of buying activity was driven by uncertainties surrounding the temporary suspension of the US Department of Energy’s uranium barter program and potential government action with respect to US trade laws.” (TradeTech Nuclear Market Review (NMR), May 31, 2018). Transaction volume in June 2018 was lower, though “the buying pool remained diverse with utilities, traders, producers, and financial entities all concluding purchases.” (TradeTech NMR, June 30, 2018). TradeTech further stated that “although utilities are beginning to venture into the spot market a bit more, US utilities in particular are hampered by uncertainties hanging over the market, including potential government action with respect to US trade laws.” TradeTech noted that uranium demand from non-US utilities is “decidedly strong.”

Several positive developments supported the uranium market during the three month period ended June 30, 2018. Rio Tinto announced lower Q1-2018 and full year production from their Rossing and Ranger mines (TradeTech NMR, April 30, 2018). U.S. uranium production during Q1-2018 was down over 50% (TradeTech NMR, May 11, 2018). The State of New Jersey passed legislation supporting nuclear energy in the state, and uranium was included on a draft list published by the U.S. Department of Interior of 35 minerals which are considered critical to the economic and national security of the US (TradeTech NMR May 25, 2018). Paladin announced that it was placing its Langer Heinrich mine in Namibia on care and maintenance (TradeTech NMR, May 25, 2018). Kazakhstan announced cuts that would result in 2018 production being 12.5% lower than 2016 (TradeTech NMR, June 8, 2018). Two new uranium funds also advanced. Yellowcake plc raised £150 million and purchased approximately 8 million pounds of U₃O₈ in mid-July (TradeTech NMR, July 13, 2018). In addition, Sydney, Australia-based Tribeca Investment Partners announced their intent to launch a $75 million uranium fund (TradeTech NMR, June 15, 2018). In Japan, the government reaffirmed its 20-22% nuclear power share by 2030 in its draft revised Strategic Energy Plan (TradeTech NMR May 18, 2018). Also, Kyushu Electric announced the restart of the 9^th reactor to return to service (Genkai 4) in Japan (TradeTech NMR, June 22, 2018). Following the end of the quarter in July 2018, Cameco announced that the McArthur River/Key Lake suspension in Canada has been “extended for indeterminate duration," and that Cameco’s total production in 2019 would be only be about nine million pounds of U₃O₈ versus expected contract delivery commitments of 25.0 to 27.0 million pounds of U₃O₈.

The Company continues to believe that the continued weak uranium markets are primarily the result of excess uranium supplies caused by large quantities of secondary uranium supplies, excess inventories, and thus far insufficient primary production cut-backs. The Company also believes that the Company’s joint filing of the "Section 232 Petition," discussed below, has injected considerable uncertainty into the market, causing utilities and other market participants to be less aggressive in their buying and selling activities at this time.

Vanadium Market Update

According to weekly price data from Metal Bulletin, vanadium spot prices were $15.50 per pound of V₂O₅ on March 26, 2018. During the quarter, weekly spot prices reported by Metal Bulletin mostly rose, reaching a high of $17.25 per pound of V₂O₅ on June 25, 2018, the end of the quarter. The July 30, 2018 weekly spot price for vanadium as reported by Metal Bulletin was $19.33 per pound.

The Company believes that global production cutbacks have caused supply to fall well below demand, creating a deficit in the market. In addition, steel production accounts for about 90% of vanadium consumption, and vanadium demand has strengthened due to increased steel production and a revision of rebar standards in China that requires more vanadium (Metal Bulletin). According to Metal Bulletin, there are “no signs of change to the persistent tight supply situation” for vanadium. (Metal Bulletin, Global Vanadium Wrap, July 3, 2018). There is also considerable interest in the vanadium battery market, which currently accounts for about 2% of global demand (Mining Weekly, May 4, 2018). However, the Company believes this number could rise significantly in the coming years as flow batteries penetrate the utility-scale storage market.

Operations Update and Outlook year ending December 31, 2018

The Company plans to extract and/or recover uranium from the following sources in 2018 (each of which is more fully described below):


•	Nichols Ranch Project


•	Alternate Feed Materials


•	Pond Return at the White Mesa Mill

Our planned operations, together with our existing inventories, are expected to produce finished uranium in excess of our existing sales contracts.

Extraction and Recovery Activities

The Company expects to produce a total of 460,000 to 520,000 pounds of U₃O₈ in the year ending December 31, 2018, of which 171,000 pounds of U₃O₈were produced in the first six months of the year.

The Company currently has finished goods inventory and uranium extraction and recovery capabilities that exceed the commitments contained in its existing sales contracts. As a result, both ISR and conventional uranium extraction and/or recovery have been, and are expected to continue to be, maintained at reduced levels until such time as market conditions improve sufficiently.

ISR Activities

We expect production at Nichols Ranch to total 140,000 to 160,000 pounds in the year ending December 31, 2018, of which we recovered 82,000 pounds during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

At June 30, 2018, the Nichols Ranch wellfields had nine header houses extracting uranium. Until such time that improvement in uranium market conditions is observed or suitable sales contracts can be entered into, the Company intends to defer further development of wellfields at its Nichols Ranch Project and to keep the Alta Mesa Project on standby.

Conventional Activities

We expect to recover 320,000 to 360,000 pounds of uranium at the Mill during the year ending December 31, 2018 for our own account, 89,000 pounds of which have been recovered to date in 2018. Of this material, approximately 145,000 pounds are expected to be from Alternate Feed Materials and the remainder from Pond Return. In addition to the 145,000 pounds expected to be recovered from Alternate Feed Materials, valued at $3.3 million, the Company expects to receive an additional $3.8 million in cash from processing fees, for a total expected value from alternate feed materials of $7.1 million during 2018, $0.2

million of which has been earned to date in 2018. The Company is continuing to pursue other Alternate Feed Material opportunities, some of which may result in additional value to the Company in 2018.

The White Mesa Mill has historically operated on a campaign basis, whereby uranium recovery is scheduled as mill feed, cash needs, contract requirements, and/or market conditions may warrant. The Company currently expects that planned processing activities will keep the Mill in operation through the end of 2018, and generate positive cash flow as a result. The Company is also actively pursuing opportunities to process new and additional alternate feed sources, low grade ore from third parties in connection with various uranium clean-up requirements and further recovery of uranium from Pond Return. The Company also plans to recover vanadium from existing pond solutions, in a manner similar to the way the Company has recovered uranium from those same solutions, and perhaps recover vanadium from other sources.

Recent studies of the Company’s vanadium capabilities has resulted in the identification of up to 4.0 million pounds of solubilized vanadium in the Mill’s tailings and evaporation ponds, and consequently the Company has decided to resume vanadium production in 2018. The Company expects to initially recover approximately 500,000 lbs. of V₂O₅ in late-2018 or early-2019, and given favorable costs, recoveries, and then-prevailing market conditions, we expect to continue vanadium recovery in 2019, recovering up to approximately 4.0 million lbs. of V₂O₅ over the life of the project. The Company is also reviewing the economics of processing certain previously mined uranium/vanadium ore stockpiles and re-initiation of conventional uranium/vanadium mining at certain of its uranium/vanadium mines, as well as the recovery of vanadium alone or in combination with uranium from other potential vanadium-bearing streams, as market conditions may warrant. The goal of the Company’s vanadium review is to better quantify vanadium revenue streams, in light of recent increases in vanadium prices, while minimizing the risks of market fluctuations.

Successful results from these activities would allow the Mill to extend the 2018 campaign into 2019 and beyond. However, in the event we are unable at any time to secure sufficient feed sources to justify full operation of the Mill, the Company would expect to place uranium recovery activities at the Mill on standby at that time, until sufficient mill feed becomes available. While on standby, the Mill would continue to dry and package material from the Nichols Ranch Plant and continue to receive and stockpile Alternate Feed Materials for future milling campaigns. Each future milling campaign would be subject to receipt of sufficient mill feed and resulting cash flow that would allow the Company to operate the Mill on a profitable basis or that would result in all or a portion of the Mill's standby costs being recovered.

The Company plans to continue to carry out engineering, procurement and construction management activities at the Canyon project in 2018, including additional bench and pilot plant scale metallurgical test work of the uranium/copper mineralization, as well as pursue any additional permitting actions that may be required to recover copper at the White Mesa Mill. The timing of our plans to extract and process mineralized materials from this project will be based on the results of this additional evaluation work, along with market conditions, available financing and sales requirements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company received amendments to its Plans of Operations, to expand operations at its La Sal and Daneros Projects, both of which are currently on standby. The Company continues to selectively advance certain permits at its other major conventional uranium projects. The Company plans to continue the licensing and permitting of its Roca Honda Project, a large, high-grade conventional project in New Mexico, with the Record of Decision currently now scheduled to be completed in 2019. The Company will also continue to evaluate the Bullfrog Property at its Henry Mountains Project. Expenditures for certain of these projects have been adjusted to coincide with expected dates of price recoveries based on our forecasts. All of these projects serve as important pipeline assets for the Company’s future conventional production capabilities, as market conditions warrant. A number of the Company’s conventional mines also have substantial vanadium resources, which the Company is currently evaluating, particularly with the recent increases in vanadium prices in excess of the $15 per pound range.

The Company will also continue to pursue additional cost cutting initiatives, including the potential sale or abandonment of certain non-core properties and the sale of excess mining equipment and other assets.

Trade Petition

In January 2018, the Company participated in the filing of a Petition for Relief with the U.S. Department of Commerce ("DOC") under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (as amended) From Imports of Uranium Products that Threaten U.S. National Security (the "Petition"). The Petition describes how uranium and nuclear fuel from state-owned and state-subsidized enterprises in Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and China potentially represent a threat to U.S. national security. The Petition seeks a remedy which will set a quota to limit imports of uranium into the U.S., effectively reserving 25% of the U.S. nuclear market for U.S. uranium production. Additionally, the Petition suggests implementation of a requirement for U.S. federal utilities and agencies to buy U.S. uranium in accordance with the President's Buy American Policy. The remedies, if granted, would be expected to strengthen

the U.S. uranium mining industry, bolster national defense, and improve supply diversification for U.S. utilities and their customers. The Company intends to continue its support of this action during 2018.

On July 18, 2018, the DOC initiated its investigation. Pursuant to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (as amended), starting on July 18, 2018, the Secretary of the DOC has 270 days to prepare a report to the President of the United States. Following receipt of the Secretary’s report, the President then has 90 days to act on the Secretary’s recommendations, and if necessary take action to “adjust the imports of an article and its derivatives” and/or pursue other lawful non-trade related actions to address the threat. It should be noted, however, that there can be no certainty of the outcome of the petition, and therefore the outcome of this process is uncertain.

Sales and other revenue update and outlook year ending December 31, 2018

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company completed deliveries of 500,000 pounds of U₃O₈at a weighted average price of $53.55 per pound. On April 1, 2018, the Company completed the delivery of 400,000 pounds of U₃O₈ under two long-term contracts with a fixed price of $61.30 per pound, and on June 15, 2018, the Company completed the delivery of 100,000 pounds of U₃O₈ under a spot contract at $22.57 per pound, where the price is based on the average spot price per pound of uranium for the five weeks prior to the date of delivery. In the final six months of the year, the Company expects to complete one delivery of 100,000 pounds of U₃O₈in Q4 under a contract, where the price is based on the average spot price per pound of uranium for the five weeks prior to the date of delivery. It should be noted that all of the Company's existing long-term sales contracts expire following the Company's 2018 deliveries, and all uranium sales after 2018 will be required to be made at spot prices, unless the Company is able to enter into new long-term contracts at satisfactory prices in the future.

Operating Expenses

Uranium recovered and costs and expenses applicable to revenue

In the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recovered 39,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from ISR recovery activities for the Company's own account, and 89,000 pounds from the Company's alternate feed sources. In the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recovered 80,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from the Nichols Ranch Project and 32,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from the Company’s alternate feed sources. In addition, the Company recovered 359,000 pounds for the account of a third party under a tolling agreement.

Costs and expenses applicable to revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2018 totaled $10.67 million, compared with $11.07 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Included in cost and expenses applicable to revenue is $1.80 million related to toll processing for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Costs of goods sold averaged $21.34 per pound and $30.91 per pound in the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

In the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recovered 82,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from the Nichols Ranch Project and 89,000 pounds from the Company's alternate feed sources. In the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recovered 138,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from the Nichols Ranch Project, 66,000 pounds of U₃O₈ from the Company’s alternate feed sources. In addition, the Company recovered 466,000 of U₃O₈ pounds for the account of a third party under a tolling agreement.

Costs and expenses applicable to revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2018 totaled $11.91 million, compared with $13.14 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Included in cost and expenses applicable to revenue is $1.80 million related to toll processing for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Costs of goods sold averaged $21.65 per pound and $30.87 per pound in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The decrease in the cost of sales was primarily attributable to a decrease in the quantity of U₃O₈ sold year over year as discussed above as well as a decrease in toll processing and other revenues.

Other Operating Costs and Expenses

Development, permitting and land holding

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company spent $1.00 million for development of the Canyon Project and permitting and land holding costs related to this and other projects. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company spent $1.19 million for development, permitting, and land holding primarily at the Canyon Project completing the sinking of the shaft, completing evaluation drilling and finalizing development of the site. While we expect the amounts relative to the items listed above have added future value to the Company, we expense these amounts as we do not have proven or probable reserves at any of the Company's projects under SEC Industry Guide 7.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company spent $2.60 million for development of the Canyon Project and permitting and land holding costs related to this and other projects. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company spent $4.51 million for development, permitting, and land holding of which $3.81 million was spent at the Canyon Project completing the sinking of the shaft, completing evaluation drilling and finalizing development of the site. Additionally, the Company spent $0.70 million completing and putting into production its ninth wellfield at Nichols Ranch, completing the permitting on the Jane Dough Project and the Sheep Mountain Project and for other permitting activities and land holding costs in the six months ended June 30, 2017

Standby expense

The Company’s La Sal and Daneros Projects were placed on standby in 2012, as a result of market conditions. In February 2014, the Company placed its Arizona 1 Project on standby. In 2015 and 2016, the White Mesa Mill was operated at lower levels of uranium recovery, including prolonged periods of standby. Costs related to the care and maintenance of the standby mines, along with standby costs incurred while the White Mesa Mill was operating at low levels of uranium recovery or on standby, are expensed.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, standby costs totaled $1.39 million compared with $1.03 million in the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, standby costs totaled $3.90 million compared with $2.24 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily related to decreased toll milling activities at the White Mesa Mill causing the Mill to operate at lower levels of uranium recovery with excess costs being expensed to standby for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Abandonment of mineral properties

The Company has allocated value to mineral properties upon their acquisition. From time to time, the Company may choose to abandon these mineral properties by not paying the required renewal fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 the Company did not renew certain mineral leases and recorded abandonment expense of $0.04 million and $0.29 million, respectively. There were no abandonment expenses recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Accretion

Accretion related to the asset retirement obligation for the Company’s properties increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, which were $0.46 million and $0.92 million compared with the prior year three and six months ended of $0.35 million and $0.69 million, respectively. This increase is primarily due to normal accretion activity.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses include costs associated with marketing uranium, corporate and general and administrative costs. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for personnel, contract and professional services, stock-based compensation expense and other overhead expenditures. General and administrative expenses totaled $5.00 million and $9.84 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $6.31 million and $11.01 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease is due primarily due to a lower head count in 2018.

Impairment

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $1.34 million and $2.35 million in impairment charges related to inventory. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $1.96 million inventory impairment. The impairment of inventories is due to declining Uranium prices and lower amounts of contract sales due to expiring sales contracts.

Interest Expense and Other Income and Expenses

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018, was $0.48 million compared with $0.50 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018, was $0.97 million compared with $1.05 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This decrease was due to lower principal amounts from the Wyoming revenue bond loan and the put option conversion of the convertible debentures.

Other income and expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, other income and expense totaled $0.50 million income, net. These amounts primarily consist of a gain on investments accounted for at fair value of $0.67 million, gain on sale of assets held for sale of $0.34 million, a gain on the change in the mark-to-market values of the Company's Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) of $0.47 million, foreign exchange gain of $0.13 million, sale of surplus assets of $0.27 million, offset by the loss on the decrease in warrant liabilities of $1.45 million.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, other income and expense totaled $3.68 million of income, net. These amounts primarily consist of a gain on the increase in warrant liabilities of $3.04 million, a gain on the change in the mark-to-market values of the Company's Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”) of $0.15 million, gain on sale of surplus assets of $0.35 million, a gain on investments accounted for at fair value of $0.12 million and interest income of $0.03 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, other income and expense totaled $0.56 million income, net. These amounts primarily consist of a gain on investments accounted for at fair value of $0.44 million, gain on sale of assets held for sale of $0.34 million,

a gain on the change in the mark-to-market values of the Debentures of $0.32 million, foreign exchange gain of $0.11 million, sale of surplus assets of $0.28 million, offset by the loss on the decrease in warrant liabilities of $1.08 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, other income and expense totaled $1.76 million of income, net. These amounts mainly consist of a gain on warrant liabilities of $0.85 million, $0.62 million gain in fair value of investments, and a gain on sale of surplus assets of $1.14 million, partially offset by a loss on the change in the mark-to-market values of the Company's Debentures of $0.78 million.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Funding of major business and property acquisitions

Over the past six years the Company has funded major business and property acquisitions with capital provided by the issuance of its common shares. In 2012 we acquired Titan Uranium Inc. and the US Mining Division of Denison, in 2013 we acquired Strathmore Minerals Corp, in 2015 we acquired Uranerz and in 2016 we acquired Mesteña, each in exchange for newly issued shares.

We intend to continue to acquire assets utilizing common shares when we can do so under attractive terms.

Cash issued for shares

On December 23, 2016, the Company filed a prospectus supplement in both Canada and the United States to its Canadian base shelf prospectus and U.S. registration statement on Form S-3 which enabled the Company, at its discretion from time to time, to sell up to $20 million worth of Common Shares by way of an “at-the-market” offering (the “ATM”). On December 29, 2017, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to its U.S. registration statement, qualifying for distribution up to an additional $30 million in additional common shares under the ATM.

From January 1, 2017 to August 1, 2018, a total of 19,746,938 Common Shares have been sold under the ATM, for net proceeds to the Company of $39.54 million.

Working capital at June 30, 2018 and future requirements for funds

At June 30, 2018, the Company had working capital of $55.25 million, including $43.24 million in cash and 225,000 pounds of finished goods inventory. The Company believes it has sufficient cash and resources to carry out its business plan for at least the next twelve months.

The Company is actively focused on its forward looking liquidity needs, especially in light of the current depressed uranium markets. The Company is evaluating its ongoing fixed cost structure as well as decisions related to project retention, advancement and development. If current uranium prices persist for any extended period of time, the Company will likely be required to raise capital or take other measures to fund its ongoing operations. Significant development activities, if warranted, will require that we arrange for financing in advance of planned expenditures. In addition, we expect to continue to augment our current financial resources with external financing as our long term business needs require.

The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, current portion of notes payable and current taxes payable are due within the current operating year.

Cash and cash flows

Six months ended June 30, 2018

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $64.83 million at June 30, 2018, compared to $40.70 million at December 31, 2017. The increase of $24.13 million was due primarily to cash provided by financing activities of $19.46 million, cash provided by operating activities of $3.01 million, cash provided by investing activities of $2.93 million offset by loss on foreign exchange on cash held in foreign currencies of $1.26 million.

Net cash used in operating activities of $3.01 million is comprised of the net loss of $3.69 million for the period adjusted for non-cash items and for changes in working capital items. Significant items not involving cash were $3.15 million of depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment, $2.35 million impairment on inventory, stock based compensation expense of $1.72 million, accretion of ARO of $0.92 million, $1.08 million change in warrant liabilities, other non-cash expenses of $0.46 million, an increase in inventories of $4.95 million, offset by an increase in trade and other receivables of $2.19 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $3.40 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $19.46 million consisting primarily of $22.05 million proceeds from the issuance of stock using the Company's ATM offering offset by $1.68 million to repay loans and borrowings and $0.91 million cash paid for tax withholding.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $2.93 million, of which $2.94 million related to cash received for the sale of the Company's Reno Creek property.

Six months ended June 30, 2017

Cash and cash equivalents were $41.53 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $40.08 million at December 31, 2016. The increase of $1.45 million was due primarily to cash provided by financing activities of $5.37 million, and gain on foreign exchange on cash held in foreign currencies of $0.05 million offset by cash used in operations of $3.97 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $5.37 million consisting primarily of $7.46 million proceeds from the issuance of stock in the ATM Offering and $0.37 million in cash received from non-controlling interest partially offset by $2.46 million to repay loans and borrowings.

Net cash used in operating activities of $3.97 million is comprised of the net loss of $15.08 million for the period adjusted for non-cash items and for changes in working capital items. Significant items not involving cash were $3.69 million of depreciation and amortization of property, plant and equipment, $1.78 million of stock-based compensation, $1.96 million impairment in inventories, $3.60 million impairment of assets held for sale, a change in the value of the convertible debentures of $0.78 million, a $0.76 million miscellaneous non-cash expense, $0.69 million accretion of asset retirement obligation, a $3.68 million decrease in inventories, a $0.23 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets, offset by a $3.12 million increase in trade and other receivables and a $1.73 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, a loss on the value of the warrant liabilities of $0.85 million, an unrealized foreign exchange loss of $0.18 million and $0.54 million in cash paid for reclamation and remediation activities.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. These judgments and estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances taking into account previous experience. Although the Company regularly reviews the estimates and judgments made that affect these financial statements, actual results may be materially different.

Significant estimates made by management include:

a. Exploration Stage

SEC Industry Guide 7 defines a reserve as “that part of a mineral deposit which could be economically and legally extracted or produced at the time of the reserve determination”. The classification of a reserve must be evidenced by a bankable feasibility study using the latest three-year price average. While the Company has established the existence of mineral resources and has successfully extracted and recovered saleable uranium from certain of these resources, the Company has not established proven or probable reserves, as defined under SEC Industry Guide 7, for these operations or any of its uranium projects. As a result, the Company is in the Exploration Stage as defined under Industry Guide 7. Furthermore, the Company has no plans to establish proven or probable reserves for any of its uranium projects.

While in the Exploration Stage, among other things, the Company must expense all amounts that would normally be capitalized and subsequently depreciated or depleted over the life of the mining operation on properties that have proven or probable reserves.

Items such as the construction of wellfields and related header houses, additions to our recovery facilities and advancement of properties will all be expensed in the period incurred. As a result, the Company’s consolidated financial statements may not be directly comparable to the financial statements of mining companies in the development or production stages.

b. Resource estimates utilized

The Company utilizes estimates of its mineral resources based on information compiled by appropriately qualified persons. The information relating to the geological data on the size, depth and shape of the deposits requires complex geological judgments to interpret the data. The estimation of future cash flows related to resources is based upon factors such as estimates of future uranium prices, future construction and operating costs along with geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the size and grade of the resource. Changes in the mineral resource estimates may impact the carrying value of mining and recovery assets, goodwill, reclamation and remediation obligations and depreciation and impairment.

d. . Depreciation of mining and recovery assets acquired

For mining and recovery assets actively extracting and recovering uranium we depreciate the acquisition costs of the mining and recovery assets on a straight line basis over our estimated lives of the mining and recovery assets. The process of estimating the useful life of the mining and recovery assets requires significant judgment in evaluating and assessing available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data, projected rates of extraction and recovery, estimated commodity price forecasts and the timing of future expenditures, all of which are, by their very nature, subject to interpretation and uncertainty.

Changes in these estimates may materially impact the carrying value of the Company’s mining and recovery assets and the recorded amount of depreciation.

e. Impairment testing of mining and recovery assets

The Company undertakes a review of the carrying values of its mining and recovery assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may exceed their estimated net recoverable amounts determined by reference to estimated future operating results and net cash flows. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of a mining or recovery asset is not recoverable based on this analysis. In undertaking this review, the management of the Company is required to make significant estimates of, among other things, future production and sale volumes, forecast commodity prices, future operating and capital costs and reclamation costs to the end of the mining asset’s life. These estimates are subject to various risks and uncertainties, which may ultimately have an effect on the expected recoverability of the carrying values of mining and recovery assets.

f. Asset retirement obligations

Asset retirement obligations are recorded as a liability when an asset that will require reclamation and remediation is initially acquired. For disturbances created on a property owned that will require future reclamation and remediation the Company records asset retirement obligations for such disturbance when occurred. The Company has accrued its best estimate of its share of the cost to decommission its mining and milling properties in accordance with existing laws, contracts and other policies. The estimate of future costs involves a number of estimates relating to timing, type of costs, mine closure plans, and review of potential methods and technical advancements. Furthermore, due to uncertainties concerning environmental remediation, the ultimate cost of the Company’s decommissioning liability could differ from amounts provided. The estimate of the Company’s obligation is subject to change due to amendments to applicable laws and regulations and as new information concerning the Company’s operations becomes available. The Company is not able to determine the impact on its financial position, if any, of environmental laws and regulations that may be enacted in the future. Additionally, the expected cash flows in the future are discounted at the Company’s estimated cost of capital based on the periods the Company expects to complete the reclamation and remediation activities. Differences in the expected periods of reclamation or in the discount rates used could have a material difference in the actual settlement of the obligations compared with the amounts provided

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Investments

In January 2016, ASU No. 2016-01 was issued related to financial instruments. The new guidance requires entities to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income. This new guidance also updates certain disclosure requirements for these investments. This update is effective in fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is not permitted. Adoption of this standard has no impact on the Company's financial statements as the Company had previously elected to account for these investments using the fair value option.

Revenue recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, as amended by ASU No. 2016-12, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," which requires revenue to be recognized based on the amount an entity is expected to be entitled to for promised goods or services provided to customers. The standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding contracts with customers. The guidance in this standard supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition," and most industry-specific guidance. Adoption of the standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented (full retrospective method) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018 and applied the modified retrospective method with prior periods presented as if revenue were recognized under Topic 606. See FN 14 for further discussion.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

The FASB has issued the following standards which are not yet effective:

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 which core principle is that a lessee should recognize the assets and the liabilities that arise from leases, including operating leases. Under the new requirements, a lessee will recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and the right-of-use asset representing the right to the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of twelve months or less, the lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from the previous GAAP. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within such fiscal year, with early adoption permitted.

The ASU requires a modified retrospective transition method with the option to elect a package of practical expedients. The Company is evaluating the effect of this amendment and the impact it will have on the Company’s financial statements.

Nonemployee Share-Based Payment

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which more closely aligns the accounting for employee and nonemployee share-based payments. This standard more closely aligns the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions to the guidance for awards to employees except for specific guidance on certain inputs to an option-pricing model and the attribution of cost. This standard is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of Topic 606.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The Company is exposed to risks associated with commodity prices, interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and credit. Commodity price risk is defined as the potential loss that we may incur as a result of changes in the market value of uranium. Interest rate risk results from our debt and equity instruments that we issue to provide financing and liquidity for our business. The foreign currency exchange risk relates to the risk that the value of financial commitments, recognized assets or liabilities will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency rates. Credit risk arises from the extension of credit throughout all aspects of our business. Industry-wide risks can also affect our general ability to finance exploration, and development of exploitable resources; such effects are not predictable or quantifiable. Market risk is the risk to the Company of adverse financial impact due to change in the fair value or future cash flows of financial instruments as a result of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Commodity Price Risk

The Company is subject to market risk related to the market price of U3O8. The Company's existing long term contracts have expired, following the Company's April 2018 deliveries, and all uranium sales will now be required to be made at spot prices until the Company enters into new long-term contracts at satisfactory prices in the future. Future revenue beyond our current contracts will be affected by both spot and long-term U3O8 price fluctuations which are affected by factors beyond our control, including: the demand for nuclear power; political and economic conditions; governmental legislation in uranium producing and consuming countries; and production levels and costs of production of other producing companies. The Company continuously monitors the market to determine its level of extraction and recovery of uranium in the future.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its cash equivalents, deposits, restricted cash, and debt. Our interest earned is not material; thus not subject to significant risk. Our Wyoming Industrial Development Revenue Bond has a fixed interest rate over its remaining four-year life, removing variability. The Company is exposed to an interest rate risk associated with its Debentures, which is based on the spot market price of U3O8. These Debentures mature in December 2020. The Company does not currently expect the spot market price of U3O8 to exceed $54.99 per pound prior to the Debentures’ maturity and, accordingly, does not believe there is any significant interest rate risk related to these Debentures. The Company does not use derivatives to manage interest rate risk. The following chart displays the interest rate applicable to our Debentures at various U3O8 per pound price levels.



UxC U3O8 Weekly Indicator Price	Annual Interest Rate
Up to $54.99	8.5%
$55.00–$59.99	9%
$60.00–$64.99	9.5%
$65.00–$69.99	10%
$70.00–$74.99	10.5%
$75.00–$79.99	11%
$80.00–$84.99	11.5%
$85.00–$89.99	12%
$90.00–$94.99	12.5%
$95.00–$99.99	13%
$100 and above	13.5%

Currency Risk

The foreign exchange risk relates to the risk that the value of financial commitments, recognized assets or liabilities will fluctuate due to changes in foreign currency rates. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As the US Dollar is the functional currency of our U.S. operations, the currency risk has been reduced. We maintain a nominal balance in foreign currency, resulting in a low currency risk relative to our cash balances. Our Debentures are denominated in Canadian Dollars and, accordingly, are exposed to currency risk.

The following table summarizes, in United States dollar equivalents, the Company’s major foreign currency (Cdn$) exposures as of June 30, 2018 ($000):



Cash and cash equivalents	$	20,296
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	(522		)
Loans and borrowings	(15,538		)
Total	$	4,236

The table below summarizes a sensitivity analysis for significant unsettled currency risk exposure with respect to our financial instruments as at June 30, 2018 with all other variables held constant. It shows how net income would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variables that were reasonably possible at that date.



('000s)	Change for Sensitivity Analysis	Increase (decrease) in other comprehensive income
	+1% change in
	U.S.
Strengthening net earnings	dollar	$	56
	-1% change in U.S.
Weakening net earnings	dollar	$	(56	)

Credit Risk

Credit risk relates to cash and cash equivalents, trade, and other receivables that arise from the possibility that any counterparty to an instrument fails to perform. The Company only transacts with highly-rated counterparties and a limit on contingent exposure has been established for any counterparty based on that counterparty’s credit rating. The Company’s sales are attributable mainly to multinational utilities. As at June 30, 2018, the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk was the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and taxes recoverable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

At the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2018, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
