FYI Resources Ltd is pleased to announce the commencement by the Company in establishing a quotation on the 'over the counter' (OTC) market in the USA

24.02.2021  |  DGAP
FYI Resources Ltd. (ASX: FYI) (FYI or the Company) has commenced the process to seek quotation on the OTCQX as a secondary listing as a result of significant interest from North American investors who are active investors in the electric vehicle (EV) sector and power storage industries. The OTCQX is the highest tier in the OTC markets run by OTC Markets Group, a platform which offers an electronic quotation and trading service that will enhance the visibility and liquidity of FYI securities and accessibility to potential investors. The investor interest includes equity funds, ESG funds and family offices. The interest the Company has received from North American investors is a direct result of:

- FYI's progress on the innovative and fully integrated high purity alumina (HPA) strategy

- the Company attracting high calibre corporate and counter party interest

- The demonstrated value outlined in the Company's published DFS (ASX 11 March 2020)

- Leverage that HPA offers in the burgeoning EV and power storage markets

- Potential partnerships and opportunities in North America

FYI will maintain its primary listing on the ASX, with the OTCQX as a secondary or compliance listing, which trades the same class of ordinary share to the FYI's ASX traded stock. The FYI OTCQX quoted shares or securities will be traded "over-the-counter" via a dealer network as opposed to trading on a centralised exchange. FYI's shares will not be a synthetic or derivative stock.

The increasing investor interest in the US for the EV sector and its supply chain commodities, including HPA, appears to be stimulated, in part, by President Biden announcing plans to replace the US Government's fleet of 645,000 vehicles with EVs* as part of the Democrat Party's sweeping $1.9 trillion post COVID stimulus funding and investment into supporting US industries including battery related development**.

Frankfurt Stock Exchange

FYI already trades on OTC markets on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under code "SDL.F" and the Munich Stock Exchange under the code "SDL.M".

The Frankfurt and Munich listings have already provided valuable exposure for the Company to European investors. FYI has observed increased trading volumes through these platforms over the past several months with overall European based trading tripling.

The Frankfurt listing assists FYI's investor reach and increases its exposure to European investors. The Frankfurt Stock Exchange is the world's third largest exchange-trading market, behind the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ. More than 50% of the total trades on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange are conducted through investors in countries outside of Germany.

Cautionary Statements

Substance of DFS
The DFS referred to in this announcement is a study of the potential viability of the Cadoux Kaolin Project. It has been undertaken to understand the technical and economic viability of the Project.

The DFS assumes as a 25-year Project life based only on Proved and Probable Ore Reserves (100%).

The DFS is based on the material assumptions outlined in the announcement made 11 March 2020 and the appended summary of the DFS. These include assumptions about the availability of funding. While the Company considers all of the material assumptions to be based on reasonable grounds, there is no certainty that they will prove to be correct or that the range of outcomes indicated by this DFS will be achieved.

To achieve the range of outcomes indicated in the DFS, funding in the order of A$189 million will likely be required. Investors should note that there is no certainty that the Company will be able to raise the amount of funding when needed. It is also possible that such funding may only be available on terms that may be dilutive to or otherwise affect the value of the Company's existing shares.

It is also possible that the Company could pursue other "value realisation" strategies such as a sale, partial sale or joint venture of the Project. If it does, this could materially reduce the Company's proportionate ownership of the Project.
