Overview

Net loss for Q1 narrowed to $4.7 mln from $9.2 mln a year earlier
Company expects Q2 revenue to benefit from tariff relief and higher vanadium prices
Outlook
Largo expects stronger revenue realization in Q2 2026 due to tariff relief and inventory sales
Result Drivers
PRODUCTION GAINS - Higher vanadium output was driven by improved mine access, stronger ore availability, and greater plant stability, per co-CEO Daniel Tellechea
TARIFF IMPACT - Q1 sales and revenue were constrained by high U.S. tariffs on Brazilian imports in the early part of the quarter, according to co-CEO Alberto Arias
PRICE LAG - Higher vanadium and ferrovanadium prices in the U.S. were not fully reflected in Q1 revenue due to timing of sales contracts, with benefits expected in Q2
