Welcome to our dedicated page for LITHIUM AMERICAS SEC filings (Ticker: LAC), a comprehensive resource for investors and traders seeking official regulatory documents including 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly earnings, 8-K material events, and insider trading forms.
Lithium Americas Corp. filings document its Thacker Pass lithium project, consolidated financial reporting, project financing, and public-company governance. Form 10-K and 10-Q disclosures cover audited and interim financial statements, operating updates, construction spending, and risk factors related to a development-stage lithium resource and processing project.
Material-event reports describe at-the-market equity distribution agreements, DOE ATVM loan amendments, warrant and registration-rights arrangements, and other capital-structure matters. Proxy materials cover annual meeting business, director elections, board composition, executive compensation, and shareholder voting for the company’s common shares listed on the NYSE and Toronto Stock Exchange.
Lithium Americas Corp. is asking shareholders to approve routine items at its 2026 virtual annual meeting, including fixing the Board size at seven, electing seven directors and reappointing PwC as auditor. Only holders of 348,821,406 common shares outstanding as of April 23, 2026 may vote.
The proxy highlights major 2025 progress at the Thacker Pass lithium project, including achieving fully funded status for Phase 1 with partners GM, Orion and a $2.23 billion U.S. Department of Energy loan. LAC drew $435 million from the DOE loan in October 2025 and a further $432 million in February 2026, and raised $590.9 million of equity via at-the-market programs.
By year-end 2025, detailed engineering was 93% complete and procurement 60% complete. The company reported approximately $905.6 million in total cash and restricted cash, including $412.6 million at the Thacker Pass joint venture, and targets mechanical completion in 2027 with full ramp-up during 2028.
Lithium Americas Corp. appointed Clayton Walker as an independent member of its Board of Directors, effective May 4, 2026. He brings more than 25 years of senior leadership at Rio Tinto, including roles overseeing major copper and iron ore operations across the Americas.
The company highlights that Walker’s operating, technical and U.S. regulatory experience is expected to support development of the Thacker Pass lithium project in Nevada. Phase 1 of Thacker Pass is designed for nominal production capacity of 40,000 tonnes per year of battery-quality lithium carbonate, with mechanical completion targeted for late 2027.
Thacker Pass is owned by a joint venture in which Lithium Americas holds a 62% interest and General Motors Holdings LLC holds 38%. Project financing for Phase 1 includes a $2.23 billion loan from the U.S. Department of Energy, which holds warrants for a 5% equity stake in Lithium Americas and a 5% non-voting equity interest in the joint venture.
Lithium Americas Corp. (LAC) files Amendment No. 1 to its Form 10-K mainly to add full Part III disclosures on directors, executive compensation, governance and ownership that were originally expected to come from the proxy statement. The amendment also updates the cover-page share count and includes new CEO/CFO certifications.
LAC describes a seven-member Board, with five directors deemed independent and a lead independent director overseeing executive sessions. The filing outlines five standing committees, their membership and charters, and highlights strong meeting attendance and a formal skills matrix covering financial, operational, ESG and risk expertise.
The company details a pay-for-performance program for three named executives, combining salary, short-term incentives tied to a 2025 corporate scorecard, and long-term incentives in restricted and performance share units based on relative total shareholder return. It also emphasizes stock ownership guidelines, clawback and insider trading policies, and caps on non-employee director pay to align leadership with shareholders.
