EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Atlas Lithium Corporation (“Atlas Lithium”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our” refer to Atlas Lithium Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2024, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 9, 2024 (the “Original Form 10-Q”) to restate our condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, for the three months ended June 30 and to make certain other changes as described herein. Pipara & Co LLP (“Pipara”) was engaged by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) to be our independent registered public accounting firm as a result of the SEC’s order on May 3, 2024 suspending our prior independent registered public accounting firm, BF Borgers CPA PC (“Borgers”), from appearing and practicing as an accountant before the SEC. The Audit Committee engaged Pipara to re-audit our financial statements for the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”). In connection with Pipara’s audit, we identified certain accounting errors relating to the presentation, timing, omission and classification of a number of items in the 2023 Annual Report that also impacted our condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, as presented in the Original 10-Q (the “Previously Issued Financial Statements”). Following discussions with our management and Pipara, the Audit Committee determined that our Previously Issued Financial Statements will be restated to make the required corrections, necessary to comply with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) as further described below.

 

The restated condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 (the “Restated Financial Statements”), including the notes thereto, update and revise items in the Original Form 10-Q, including: (i) correction of errors in the treatment of certain right of use lease assets, (ii) correction of errors relating to the timing of recording executive bonuses, (iii) reclassification of a tax refinancing liability, (iv) correction of errors in the recording of Deferred other income, (v) derecognition of certain erroneous currency translation adjustments and (vi) re-assessing our interest in the net assets of certain of our non-wholly owned subsidiaries.

 

This Amendment also changes the Original Form 10-Q to (i) update the address of our principal executive offices; and (ii) amend Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, to reflect the restated numbers derived from the Restated Financial Statements and corresponding descriptions of our accounting policies.

 

For additional details of each line change, please refer to the section named “Restatement of Previously Issued Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024 and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024” in Note 1 – Organization, Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Restated Financial Statements.

 

We have concluded that in light of the errors described above, a material weakness exists in our internal control over financial reporting and that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024. For a discussion of management’s consideration of our disclosure controls and procedures, see Part I, Item 4, “Controls and Procedures” of this Amendment.

 

 

Except as described above, no other portion of the Original Form 10-Q is being amended and this Amendment does not reflect any events occurring after the filing of the Original Form 10-Q.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking statements, including without limitation, statements regarding current expectations, as of the date of this Quarterly Report, our future results of operations and financial position, our ability to effectively process our minerals and achieve commercial grade at scale; risks and hazards inherent in the mining business (including risks inherent in exploring, developing, constructing and operating mining projects, environmental hazards, industrial accidents, weather or geologically related conditions); uncertainty about our ability to obtain required capital to execute our business plan; our ability to hire and retain required personnel; changes in the market prices of lithium and lithium products and demand for such products; the uncertainties inherent in exploratory, developmental and production activities, including risks relating to permitting, zoning and regulatory delays related to our projects; uncertainties inherent in the estimation of lithium resources. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause actual results, performance, or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievement expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions Factors that could cause future results to materially differ from the recent results or those projected in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: unprofitable efforts resulting not only from the failure to discover mineral deposits, but also from finding mineral deposits that, though present, are insufficient in quantity and quality to return a profit from production; market fluctuations; government regulations, including regulations relating to permitting, royalties, allowable production, importing and exporting of minerals, and environmental protection; competition; the loss of services of key personnel; unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, litigation, sabotage, government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of infrastructure as well as general economic conditions.

 

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report and are subject to a number of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including the factors described under the sections in this Quarterly Report titled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other of our filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Additional information regarding risk factors that may affect us is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024. The risk factors contained in our 2023 Annual Report are updated by us from time to time in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other filings that we make with the SEC.

 

You should read this Quarterly Report and the documents that we reference in this Quarterly Report completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Given these uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise.

ATLAS LITHIUM CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and Description of Business

 

Atlas Lithium Corporation (together with its subsidiaries “Atlas Lithium,” the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on December 15, 2011. The Company changed its management and business on December 18, 2012, to focus on mineral exploration in Brazil.

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in United States dollars. For the period ended June 30, 2024, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company; its 100% owned subsidiary, Atlas Lítio Brasil Ltda. (“Atlas Brasil”), Athena Lítio Ltda (“Athena”) and its 47.58% equity interest in Apollo Resources Corporation (“Apollo Resources”) and Apollo Resources’ subsidiaries, Mineração Apollo, Ltda., Mineração Duas Barras Ltda. (“MDB”) and RST Recursos Minerais Ltda. (“RST”); and the Company’s 22.30% equity interest in Jupiter Gold Corporation (“Jupiter Gold”), which includes the accounts of Jupiter Gold’s subsidiary, Mineração Jupiter Ltda. The Company has concluded that Apollo Resources, Jupiter Gold and their respective subsidiaries are variable interest entities (“VIE”) in accordance with applicable accounting standards and guidance. As such, the accounts and results of Apollo Resources, Jupiter Gold and their respective subsidiaries have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)  

 

Restatement of Previously Issued Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024 and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024

 

Subsequent to the issuance of our Original Form 10-Q, management became aware of adjustments to be recorded to our condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024. Accordingly, our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 have been restated as further described below.

 

The following is a summarized description of the areas in which the errors were identified and for which we made correcting disclosures, reclassification and adjustments to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

(1) Reclassification of mining rights from Intangible assets to PPE in accordance with ASC 930-805, which provides that mining rights should be classified as tangible assets. The Company also reassessed the amounts comprising consolidated Property and equipment and excluded amounts owned by two entities controlled by the same controlling shareholder of the Company from the consolidation as they do not qualify as entities controlled by the Company.

 

(2) Identified and adjusted errors in the right of use assets - operating leases related to the extension of existing operating lease contract.

 

(3) Identified bonuses payable to senior executives that were incurred, however not accounted for in the correct year.

 

(4) Reclassified Tax refinancing from Accounts payable to Other current liabilities to adequate the presentation of each nature of liability which are tax installments agreed to be paid to the government generally in 48 months.

 

(5) Identified and corrected an amount previously considered as a commission to be paid arising from the Royalty Agreement. The Royalty Agreement was not subject to any commissions payable.

 

(6) Derecognition of cumulative translation adjustment of Atlas Litio. Its functional currency is US$, and impacts arising from the translation of foreign exchange transactions should not be allocated to OCI.

 

(7) Reassessed the Company’s interest in each subsidiary’s net assets and concluded that amounts recorded as Non-controlling interest were not reflecting non-controlling shareholders’ interests in the subsidiaries’ net assets.

 

(8) Identified exploration costs that should be capitalized as disclosed in accounting policies.

Leases

 

Finance Leases

 

For the reporting period ended June 30, 2024, no financial leases meeting the criteria outlined in ASC 842 have been identified.

 

Operating Leases

 

Right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. When the rate implicit to the lease cannot be readily determined, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the future lease payments. The ROU asset includes any lease payments made and lease incentives received prior to the commencement date. Operating lease ROU assets also include any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent when the lease payments are uneven throughout the lease term. The ROU assets and lease liabilities may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. The ROU and lease liabilities are primarily related to commercial offices with third parties.

 

The lease agreements have terms between 2 to 3 years and the liability was measured at the present value of the lease payments discounted using interest rates with a weighted average rate of 6.5% which was determined to be the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The continuity of the lease liabilities is presented in the table below:

 

Lease liabilities at December 31, 2023– as restated  $358,760 
Additions  $- 
Interest expense  $13,271

- Maturity date: 36 months as from the date of issuance;
- Principal repayment terms: due on maturity;
- Interest rate: 6.5% per annum;
- Interest payment terms: due semiannually in arrears until maturity, unless converted or redeemed earlier and payable at the election of the holder in cash, in shares of common stock, or in any combination thereof;
- Conversion right: the holder retains a right to convert all or any portion of the note into shares of the Company’s common stock at the Conversion Price up until the maturity date; and
- Conversion price: US$28.225/share
- Redemption right: the Company shall vest a right to redeem the convertible notes if and when (i) twelve months have passed since the loan origination and (ii) the volume weighted average price exceeded 125% of the conversion price for 5 trading days within a 20-day trading period. However, if the Company notifies the holder of its election to redeem the convertible note, the holder may then convert immediately at the conversion price.

 

On November 7, 2023, the Company issued $10,000,024 in convertible promissory notes under the terms of the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, and through June 30, 2024 there were no other purchases and sales of the convertible promissory notes pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement.

NOTE 2 – COMPOSITION OF CERTAIN FINANCIAL STATEMENT ITEMS (CONTINUED)

 

a) Derivative liability – embedded conversion feature on convertible debt

 

On November 7, 2023, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to Mr. Rowley (a senior adviser to the Company and the father of Nicholas Rowley, the Company’s Vice President of Business Development), and other investors. In accordance with FASB ASC 815, the conversion feature of the convertible debt was determined to be an embedded derivative. As such, it was bifurcated from the host debt liability and was recognized as a derivative liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The derivative liability is measured at fair value through profit or loss.

 

At December 31, 2023, the fair value of the embedded conversion feature was determined to be $486,304 using a Black-Scholes collar option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

   Value cap   Value floor 
Measurement date  December 31,
2023		   December 31,
2023		 
Number of options   354,297    354,297 
Stock price at fair value measurement date  $31.2800   $31.2800 
Exercise price  $28.2250   $35.2813 
Expected volatility   99.42%   99.42%
Risk-free interest rate   3.97%   3.97%
Dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%
Expected term (years)   2.85    2.85 

 

At June 30, 2024, the fair value of the embedded conversion feature was determined to be $174,586 using a Black-Scholes collar option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

   Value cap   Value floor 
Measurement date  June 30,
2024		   June 30,
2024		 
Number of options   354,297    354,297 
Stock price at fair value measurement date  $10.3800   $10.3800 
Exercise price  $28.2250   $35.2813 
Expected volatility   96.23%   96.23%
Risk-free interest rate   4.52%   4.52%
Dividend yield   0.00%   0.00%
Expected term (years)   2.36    2.36 

 

In the Black-Scholes collar option pricing models, the expected volatilities were based on historical volatilities of the securities of the Company and its trading peers, and the risk-free interest rates were determined based on the prevailing rates at the grant date for U.S. Treasury Bonds with a term equal to the expected term of the instrument being valued.

 

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a $124,228 gain and $311,717 gain, respectively, on changes in fair value of financial instruments in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss ($nil and $nil, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023).

b) Derivative liability – other stock incentives

 

The employment agreement of a Vice President of the Company, dated September 30, 2023, provides for the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock based on us achieving certain market capitalization milestones. As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s obligations under this employment agreement contemplates the issuance of additional shares of the Company’s common stock in five tranches, each representing 0.2% of the Company’s common stock outstanding at the time of vesting, with an expiry date of December 31, 2026 and market vesting conditions as follows:

 

- Tranche 3: when the Company achieves a $400 million market capitalization
- Tranche 4: when the Company achieves a $500 million market capitalization
- Tranche 5: when the Company achieves a $600 million market capitalization
- Tranche 6: when the Company achieves a $800 million market capitalization
- Tranche 7: when the Company achieves a $1.0 billion market capitalization

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 815, these RSU awards were classified as a liability, measured at fair value through profit or loss, and compensation expense is recognized over the expected term.

 

As at June 30, 2024, Tranche 3, Tranche 4, Tranche 5, Tranche 6 and Tranche 7 remain outstanding and unvested, and the total fair value of these outstanding rights to receive restricted stock was $850,089, as measured using a Monte Carlo Simulation with the following ranges of assumptions: the Company’s stock price on the June 30, 2024 measurement date, expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility between 71.2% and 82.3%, risk-free interest rate between a range of 5.09% to 5.48%, and an expected term of 2.5 years.

NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Authorized Stock and Amendments

 

On July 18, 2022, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors” or “Board”) approved a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 1-for-750 without affecting the number of shares of authorized common stock (the “Originally Intended Reverse Stock Split”). The holder of the majority voting power of our voting stock (the “Majority Stockholder”) approved the Originally Intended Reverse Stock Split by written consent on July 18, 2022, in lieu of a meeting of stockholders as permitted under the Nevada Revised Statute (“NRS”) Section 78.320(2) and the company’s bylaws, as then amended (the “Bylaws”).

 

On December 20, 2022, the Company made the appropriate filings with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (“SOS”) that were intended to effect the Originally Intended Reverse Stock Split (the “Original Articles Amendment”). In April 2023, the Board determined that due to an error, the Original Articles Amendment was a nullity and that it would be in the best interest of the Company to take corrective action to remedy the inaccuracy and to file the documents that would have been necessary to effectuate a 1-for-750 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding common stock with a corresponding split of the authorized common stock (the “Rectified Reverse Stock Split”) and then immediately thereafter increase the number of shares of authorized common stock back to the number it was prior to the Rectified Reverse Stock Split as of December 20, 2022.

 

On April 21, 2023, the Board authorized and approved the necessary documents and filings with the SOS to decrease the number of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock and correspondingly decrease the number of authorized shares of common stock, each at a ratio of 1-for-750, retroactively effective as of December 20, 2022, without a vote of the stockholders, as pursuant to the NRS, no stockholder approval was required. Also on April 21, 2023, the Board and the Majority Stockholder approved an Authorized Capital Increase Amendment to increase the authorized number of shares of common stock from 5,333,334 shares to 4,000,000,000 shares retroactively as of December 20, 2022, in accordance with the Board’s and stockholders’ original intent in effecting the Originally Intended Reverse Stock Split.

NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (CONTINUED)

 

Further, the Board determined that it was advisable and in the best interests of the Company to amend and restate the Company’s articles of incorporation to decrease the number of shares of authorized common stock to two hundred million (200,000,000) and to amend certain other provisions in the Company’s articles (the “Amended and Restated Articles”). The Board and the Majority Stockholder determined to decrease the number of shares of authorized common stock to reduce the number of shares available for issuance given the negative perception the dilutive effect of having such a large number of shares available for issuance may have on any potential future efforts to attract additional financing. On April 21, 2023, the Board and the Majority Stockholder approved the Amended and Restated Articles. On May 25, 2023, the Company made the appropriate filings with the SOS to effect the changes as described above.

 

On May 25, 2023, the Company also filed with the SOS a Certificate of Withdrawal of Designation of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and a Certificate of Withdrawal of Designation of the Series C Convertible Preferred which were effective as of May 25, 2023.

 

As of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the Company had 200,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share.

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

On December 18, 2012, the Company filed with the SOS a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Stock”) to designate one share of a new series of preferred stock. The Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock provides that for so long as Series A Stock is issued and outstanding, the holders of Series A Stock shall vote together as a single class with the holders of the Company’s common stock, with the holders of Series A Stock being entitled to 51% of the total votes on all such matters regardless of the actual number of shares of Series A Stock then outstanding, and the holders of common stock are entitled to their proportional share of the remaining 49% of the total votes based on their respective voting power. The one outstanding share of our Series A Stock has been held by our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Mr. Marc Fogassa since December 18, 2012, a period greater than 11 years.

 

Series D Preferred Stock

 

On September 16, 2021, the Company filed with the SOS a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series D Stock”) to designate 1,000,000 shares of a new series of preferred stock. The Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D COD”) provides that for so long as Series D Stock is issued and outstanding, the holders of Series D Stock shall have no voting power until such time as the Series D Stock is converted into shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Series D COD one share of Series D Stock is convertible into 10,000 shares of common stock and may be converted at any time at the election of the holder. Giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split discussed above, each share of Series D Stock is effectively convertible into 13 and 1/3 shares of common stock. Holders of the Series D Stock are not entitled to any liquidation preference over the holders of common stock and are entitled to any dividends or distributions declared by the Company on a pro rata basis. There were no shares of Series D Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

NOTE 8 – RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Currency Risk

 

The Company operates primarily in Brazil which exposes it to currency risks. The Company’s business activities may generate intercompany receivables or payables that are in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company. Changes in exchange rates from the time the activity occurs to the time payments are made may result in the Company receiving either more or less in local currency than the local currency equivalent at the time of the original activity.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates between the applicable foreign currency and the U.S. dollar affect the translation of each foreign subsidiary’s financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting in the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s foreign subsidiaries translate their financial results from the local currency into U.S. dollars in the following manner: (a) income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period; (b) balance sheet asset and liability accounts are translated at end of period exchange rates; and (c) equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Translation in this manner affects the shareholders’ equity account referred to as the foreign currency translation adjustment account. This account exists only in the foreign subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar balance sheets and is necessary to keep the foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets in agreement.

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

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) and our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023

 

This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Item 1.A. of Part II of this Report that could cause actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Additionally, our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any period in the future.

 

Overview

 

Atlas Lithium Corporation (“Atlas Lithium”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our” refer to Atlas Lithium Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries) is a mineral exploration and development company with a developing lithium project and multiple lithium exploration properties. In addition, we own exploration properties in other battery minerals, including nickel, copper, rare earths, graphite, and titanium. Our current focus is the development from exploration to future active mining of our hard-rock lithium project located in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil at a well-known pegmatitic district in Brazil, which has been denominated by the government of Minas Gerais as “Lithium Valley.” We intend to mine and then process our lithium-containing ore to produce lithium concentrate (also known as spodumene concentrate), a key ingredient for the battery supply chain.

 

We are building a modular plant targeted at producing up to 150,000 tons of lithium concentrate per annum (“tpa”) in what we describe as Phase I. We plan on adding additional modules to the plant with the intent of doubling its production capacity to up to 300,000 tpa in Phase II. However, there can be no assurance that we will have the necessary capital resources to develop such facility or, if developed, that we will reach the production capacity necessary to commercialize our products and with the quality needed to meet market demand.

 

All our mineral projects and properties are located in Brazil, a well-established mining jurisdiction. Our lithium properties include approximately 53,942 hectares (539 km2) divided in 95 mineral rights (2 in pre-mining concession stage, 85 in exploration stage, and 8 in pre-exploration stage).

 

In addition, we also have a few additional lithium mineral rights that are in the process of being acquired and not yet titled in our name.

Table of Contents

 

We are primarily focused on advancing and developing our hard-rock lithium project located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Our Minas Gerais Lithium Project (“MGLP”) consists of 85 mineral rights spread over approximately 468 km2 and predominantly located within the Brazilian Eastern Pegmatitic Province which has been surveyed by the Brazilian Geological Survey and is known for the presence of hard rock formations known as pegmatites which contain lithium-bearing minerals such as spodumene and petalite. Our primary area of focus is the Neves Project, which is part of MGLP. The Neves Project has been drilled extensively and presents spodumene-bearing deposits amenable to open pit mining, with generation of ore material that can be processed by dense media separation technique to yield lithium concentrate, a commercial product within the battery supply chain.

 

We own approximately 47.58% of the shares of common stock of Apollo Resources, a private company primarily focused on the development of its initial iron mine.

 

We also own approximately 22.30% of the shares of common stock of Jupiter Gold, a company with an operating quartzite quarry and gold projects in exploration phase, the common stock of which is quoted on the OTCQB marketplace under the symbol “JUPGF.”

 

The results of operations from both Apollo Resources and Jupiter Gold are consolidated in our financial statements under U.S. GAAP.

 

Operational Update

 

During the second quarter of 2024, Atlas Lithium achieved important milestones across several key operational areas including:

 

ØGeotechnical drilling program in the Neves Project advanced to approximately 80% completion as of June 30, 2024, with full completion expected by end of August 2024. This program provides crucial data for mine planning and design.
  
ØMetallurgical studies for both Anitta 2 and Anitta 3 deposits within the Neves Project were successfully completed.
  
ØThe core components of the modular dense media separation (DMS) lithium processing plant underwent trial assembly and are in the process of being packaged for shipment. Atlas Lithium has designed its processing plant as a series of compact, preassembled modules, an approach that appears to have never before been used for lithium processing in Brazil. This modular configuration reduces the plant’s physical footprint compared to traditional designs. It will also enable more efficient transportation, installation, and commissioning.
  
Ø

SAP enterprise software was successfully installed.

 

In June 2024, Apollo Resources received from the state regulatory authority a 10-year license to mine its iron ore property in the Iron Quadrangle region of Minas Gerais, Brazil.

 

In July 2024, a U.S. company ordered polished quartzite slabs from Jupiter Gold’s quartzite production. Such slabs are expected to be shipped in August 2024, marking the first sale of polished quartzite slabs from Jupiter Gold as an exporter.

Results of Operations

 

The Six Months Ended June 30, 2024, compared to the Six Months ended June 30, 2023

 

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $23,137,504, compared to net loss of $13,862,249 during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase is mainly due to:

 

  ● After a trial mining period in the second half of 2023, Jupiter Gold started its continuing operations at its quartzite quarry in 2024. The gross margin of $180,256 was generated from the sales of 269 m3 of unprocessed blocks of quartzite from its own production. Considering the start of operations in 2024, there was no gross margin generation in the six months ended June 30, 2023.
  ● Higher general and administrative expenses of approximately $3.4 million in the period primarily due to increased costs of labor and consultants related to technical services, increased legal fees relating to transactions consummated during the quarter and other third-party costs;
  ● An increase of approximately $7.8 million in stock-based compensation expense compared to the prior period, reflecting bonus for the members of the management team eligible for stock-based compensation; and
  ● Higher finance costs of approximately $0.7 million for the period mainly due to interest expenses related to convertible notes issued in November 2023.
  ●

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $32,267,730 and working capital of $27,067,961.

 

Net cash used by operating activities totaled $11,292,221 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net cash provided of $11,033,491 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, representing a variation in the cash flow from operating activities of $22,325,715. The variation in net cash used /provided by operating activities was mainly due to:

 

  ● In the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company received $20,000,000 arising from the one-time royalty sale with no matchable transaction in 2024 as explained in Note 3.
  ● Increase of approximately $3,500,000 in general and administrative expenses due to the increase in the Company’s structure as it moves towards operations. As a result of that the Company had more expenditures with employees’ compensation and costs with third parties service providers such as technical consultants;

Table of Contents

 

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $16,777,111 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net cash used of $1,929,812 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, representing an increase in cash used of $14,847,299 or 769%. The increase reflects the payments made in connection with the acquisition of the components of our lithium processing plant and capitalized exploration costs.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $30,140,298 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $10,675,118 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, representing an increase in cash provided of $19,465,180 or 182%. The increase is mainly due to the following financing activities that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023:

 

  ● The sale of an aggregate of 1,871,250 shares of our common stock to Mitsui in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The gross proceeds from the Private Placement were $30.0 million.

 

For further information on the transaction mentioned above, please refer to note 7 – related parties transactions.

 

We have historically incurred net operating losses and have not yet generated material revenues from the sale of products or services. As a result, our primary sources of liquidity have been derived through proceeds from the (i) sales of our equity and the equity of one of our subsidiaries, and (ii) issuance of convertible debt. As of June 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $32,267,730 and working capital of $27,067,091, compared to cash and cash equivalents $29,549,927 and a working capital of $23,809,637 as of December 31, 2023. We believe our cash and cash and equivalents will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for a period of at least twelve months from the date of these financial statements. However, our future short- and long-term capital requirements will depend on several factors, including but not limited to, the rate of our growth, our ability to identify areas for mineral exploration and the economic potential of such areas, the exploration and other drilling campaigns needed to verify and expand our mineral resources, the successful installation of our lithium processing facilities, and the ability to attract talent to manage our different areas of endeavor. To the extent that our current resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to scale back our existing operations and growth plans, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial prospects and could raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Currency Risk

 

We operate primarily in Brazil, which exposes us to currency risks. Our business activities may generate intercompany receivables or payables that are in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity. Changes in exchange rates from the time the activity occurs to the time payments are made may result in it receiving either more or less in local currency than the local currency equivalent at the time of the original activity.

 

Our consolidated financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates between the applicable foreign currency and the U.S. dollar affect the translation of each foreign subsidiary’s financial results into U.S. dollars for purposes of reporting in the consolidated financial statements. Our foreign subsidiaries translate their financial results from the local currency into U.S. dollars in the following manner: (a) income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period; (b) balance sheet asset and liability accounts are translated at end of period exchange rates; and (c) equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Translation in this manner affects the shareholders’ equity account referred to as the foreign currency translation adjustment account. This account exists only in the foreign subsidiaries’ U.S. dollar balance sheets and is necessary to keep the foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets in agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of American (“U.S. GAAP”). Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.

 

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The information to be reported under this Item is not required of smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the design, operation, and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of June 30, 2024. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. On the basis of that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that as a result of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting, described in our Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed on Form 10-K/A with the SEC on November 8, 2024 (the “Form 10-K/A”), our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2024, that materially affected, or would be reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 

 

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constrains and that management is required to apply judgement in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
