NioCorp Investor Presentation Deck

Disclaimers & Technical Disclosures Financial Information; Non-GAAP Measures Certain financial information and data included in this Presentation is unaudited and may not conform to Regulation S-X. This Presentation also includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including, but not limited to, "Averaged EBITDA," "Averaged EBITDA Margin," and "After-Tax Cumulative Net Free Cash Flow." These performance measures do not have a standard meaning within GAAP and, therefore, amounts presented may not be comparable to similar data presented by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures, and other measures that are calculated using these non-GAAP measures, are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing NioCorp's financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are included in this Presentation because they are key performance measures used in the June 2022 Feasibility Study for purposes of projecting the economic results of the Elk Creek Project, and NioCorp believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to NioCorp's financial condition and results of operations. NioCorp believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing NioCorp's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures included in this Presentation are projections. Reconciliations of these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are not provided because NioCorp is unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable effort, due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence and the financial impact of such items impacting comparability and the periods in which such items may be recognized. For the same reasons, the Company unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results. See "Forward-Looking Statements." In addition to the non-GAAP financial measures, this Presentation may contain financial forecasts and projections (collectively, "prospective financial information") of NioCorp. Neither the independent registered public accounting firm of NioCorp audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the prospective financial information for the purpose of their inclusion in this Presentation, and accordingly, neither of them expressed an opinion or provided any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this Presentation. This prospective financial information constitutes forward-looking statements and should not be relied upon as being guarantees or necessarily indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying such prospective financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, competitive and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information. See "Forward-Looking Statements." Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective financial information is indicative of future performance of NioCorp or that actual results will not differ materially from the results presented in the prospective financial information included in this Presentation. Actual results may differ materially from the results contemplated by the prospective financial information included in this Presentation. The inclusion of such prospective financial information herein should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results reflected in such projections will be achieved. The purpose of the prospective financial information is to assist investors, shareholders and others in evaluating the performance of NioCorp's business. The prospective financial information may not be appropriate for other purposes. Information about NioCorp's guidance, including the various assumptions underlying it, is forward-looking and should be read in conjunction with "Forward-Looking Statements" in this Presentation, and the related disclosure and information about various economic, competitive, and regulatory assumptions, factors, and risks that may cause NioCorp's actual future financial and operating results to differ from what NioCorp currently expects. All amounts in this Presentation are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. Mineral Reserves and Resources Unless otherwise indicated, information concerning NioCorp's mining property included in this Presentation, including mineral resource and reserve estimates, has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy ("CIM") "Definition Standards - For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, May 10, 2014" (the "CIM Definition Standards"). Beginning with NioCorp's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 (the "NioCorp Form 10-K"), NioCorp's mining property disclosures included or incorporated by reference in its SEC filings, including mineral resource and reserve estimates, are required to be prepared in accordance with the requirements of subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K ("S-K 1300"). Previously, NioCorp prepared its estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves following only NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. On June 28, 2022, NioCorp issued a CIM-compliant NI 43-101 technical report (the "2022 NI 43-101 Elk Creek Technical Report") for the Elk Creek Project, which is available through the website maintained by the Canadian Securities Administrators at www.sedar.com. On September 6, 2022, the Company filed technical report summary for the Elk Creek Project that conforms to S-K 1300 reporting standards (the "S-K 1300 Elk Creek Technical Report Summary") as Exhibit 96.1 to "the NioCorp Form 10-K, which is available through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov. The 2022 NI 43-101 Elk Creek Technical Report and S-K 1300 Elk Creek Technical Report Summary are based on a feasibility study (the "June 2022 Feasibility Study") prepared by qualified persons (within the meaning of both NI 43-101 and S-K 1300, as applicable) and are substantively identical to one another except for internal references to the regulations under which the report is made, and certain organizational differences. The requirements and standards under Canadian securities laws, however, differ from those under S-K 1300. The terms "mineral resource," "inferred mineral resource," "indicated mineral resource," "mineral reserve," "probable mineral reserve," and "proven mineral reserve" included herein are used as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under the CIM Definition Standards. While the terms are substantially similar to the same terms defined under S-K 1300, there are differences in the definitions. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral resource or mineral reserve estimates that the Company may report under NI 43-101 will be the same as the mineral resource or mineral reserve estimates that the Company may report under S-K 1300. NioCorp discloses estimates of both is mineral resources and mineral reserves. You are cautioned that mineral resources are subject to further exploration and development and are subject to additional risks and no assurance can be given that they will eventually convert to future reserves. Under both regimes, inferred resources, in particular, have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and their economic and legal feasibility. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the inferred resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. See Item 1A, Risk Factors in the NioCorp Form 10-K. Reference should be made to the full text of the 2022 NI 43-101 Elk Creek Technical Report and the S-K 1300 Elk Creek Technical Report Summary for further information regarding the assumptions, qualifications and procedures relating to the estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources as defined under NI 43-101 and S-K 1300, respectively.
