American Marconi Wireless News - 5E Advanced Materials Advances Toward Offtake Agreements Following Customer Roadshow

HESPERIA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 26, 2026 / 5E Advanced Materials, Inc. ("5E" or the "Company") (Nasdaq:FEAM)(ASX:5EA), a company focused on becoming a vertically integrated global leader and supplier of refined borates and advanced boron derivative materials, today announced that its senior management team completed a customer roadshow with 12 prospective customers.

The roadshow follows the recent exit announcement of a domestic producer of boric acid, further tightening the boron supply chain and increasing customer focus on a secure, U.S.-sourced supply. This market dynamic reinforces the strategic importance of developing a reliable domestic supply chain.

Key Highlights

• CEO, CFO, VP of Commercial Products, and VP of Operations met with 12 prospective customers across diverse industrial end markets, including ceramics, glass, cellulose insulation, ferroboron, biocidal and pesticidal applications, as well as distribution

• Engagements included on-site facility tours and technical discussions regarding product specifications, logistics, and product qualification pathways

• Multiple customers requested proposals and indicative commercial terms

• These interactions lay the groundwork for potential long-term offtake agreements and project financing

The roadshow provided an opportunity for prospective customer decision-makers to engage directly with 5E's leadership team, review the Company's project timeline and discuss commercial structures and diligence topics relevant to potential project financing. The 5E team participated in three facility tours, gaining insight into boric acid applications that are critical to customers' industrial operations.

"The roadshow provided an important opportunity to engage with multiple prospective customers, discuss 5E, our plans to bolster the domestic boron supply chain and present commercial frameworks designed to support offtake agreements and underpin project finance," said Paul Weibel, Chief Executive Officer. "We are encouraged by multiple requests for proposals and indicative terms. Equally important, the roadshow helped us better understand each customer's business needs and identify value-added collaboration opportunities that we believe can drive long-term partnerships."
