Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) triples 2025 metals revenue, ramps solar recycling and Bioleum fuels

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Comstock Inc. reported that 2025 revenue from its metals segment reached $1.4 million, more than triple 2024’s $0.4 million, with total 2025 billings over $3.5 million. The company is pivoting from a junior mining focus toward metals recovery and renewable fuels through two main businesses: Nevada-based Comstock Metals and Oklahoma-based Bioleum Corporation.

Comstock Metals has permits and funding for its first industry-scale solar panel recycling facility in northern Nevada, designed to handle up to 3.3 million panels or about 100,000 tons annually, with operations expected to begin in the second quarter of 2026. A second Nevada site has been selected, with capital expenditures for each of the first two facilities projected at about $14.0 million. Bioleum is expanding pilot production, pursuing a Series A equity raise, and targeting ultra-low-carbon fuels, with plans indicating potential yields of up to 100 barrels of fuel per acre per year from purpose-grown energy crops and waste biomass.

Insights

Clean-tech and capital allocation analyst

Comstock is scaling early-stage clean recycling and biofuel platforms, but revenue remains small relative to planned spending.

Comstock highlights strong strategic progress in 2025, shifting toward metals recovery and renewable fuels. Metals segment revenue rose to $1.4 million with billings above $3.5 million, while the company secured permits and funding for its first industry-scale solar panel recycling facility.

Planned capital intensity is high: each of the first two 100,000‑ton facilities is expected to cost about $14.0 million, and total capital spending of roughly $13.0 million is estimated through the end of Q1 2026. The business model depends on rising end‑of‑life solar panel volumes, execution of master service agreements with utilities and recyclers, and successful commissioning.

Bioleum remains pre-commercial, focusing on pilot expansions, a Series A equity raise, and integrated biomass-fuel systems that target up to 100 barrels of fuel per acre annually. Future filings may clarify commercialization timing, margins, and how capital requirements align with the company’s small current revenue base.

NEWS RELEASE

COMSTOCK ANNOUNCES FULL YEAR 2025 ACHIEVEMENTS AND RESULTS

Expands Board as Company Accelerates Growth in Solar Recycling and Critical Metals Recovery

VIRGINIA CITY, NEVADA, March 24, 2026 – Comstock Inc. (NYSE: LODE) (“Comstock,” “our” and the “Company”), today announced its full year 2025 results, 2025 summary achievements, and our 2026 business outlook.

“Last year marked a number of critical achievements that punctuated the turnaround from a junior mining opportunity into a validated, leading metals recovery company positioned for global growth, including final proof of our zero-landfill recycling concept from our demonstration facility, team-building, full permitting, final, first-of-its-kind engineered and tested designs, secured industrial scale facility and storage capacity and fully funded the facility and operations while also receiving direct investment from Marathon Petroleum Corp and another third party investor, directly into Bioleum Corp., validating our efforts,” stated Corrado De Gasperis, the Company’s Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Comstock has now founded, developed and positioned two distinct, high-growth businesses: a Nevada-based metals recovery company and an Oklahoma-based renewable fuels company, each with sophisticated strategic and financial partners and clear paths toward commercialization and growth.”

Recent Corporate Transactional and Liquidity and Capital Resources Highlights

● Completed, in early 2026, an oversubscribed equity financing of $57.5 million in gross proceeds and $53.0 million, net of offering expenses, driven by demand from leading institutional investors and further strengthening our capital base to accelerate the commercialization and development of the Comstock Metals recycling and refining processes;

● Eliminated all debt obligations, including convertible and promissory notes, and extinguished multiple other non-debt obligations, resulting in a strong financial position for accelerating growth and further monetizing non-core assets;

● Separated Bioleum Corp. from Comstock based on $35 million in direct strategic investments from Marathon Petroleum Corp and another investor and secured our investment through a $65 million Convertible Preferred Stock.

● Secured power equivalent to 250-300 MW supporting a high value monetization of Nevada real estate investments;

● Expands Board with three outstanding, experienced, independent directors representing two of the Company’s top four shareholders, reflecting support of the exceptional opportunity positioned for solar recycling and critical metals. Cash and cash Equivalents were $17.0 million at December 31, 2025, and of cash and cash equivalents, prior to the net proceeds from the 2026 financing; and $56.1 million at March 20, 2026.

● Common shares outstanding were 51.9 million at December 31, 2025, and 74.1 million shares at March 20, 2026.

“The successful capitalization of our Company with aligned, long term investors positions and enables global industrial growth and further non-core asset and investment sales to become a highly focused, highly-profitable, multi-billion dollar valued corporation,” stated Mr. De Gasperis. “This also positioned the interest and opportunity to further align, expand and enhance our board and governance with the competencies and capacities for governing a multi-billion-dollar global enterprise. Having two of our top four investors excited to support and participate this remarkable opportunity is highly gratifying, to say the least.”

Selected Segment Highlights for Comstock Metals (for the year ended December 31, 2025)

“We have now received all permits for commissioning and operating our first industry-scale facility. Equipment is arriving daily with all equipment expected on site in early April, with commissioning underway, and operations start up, on plan, during the second quarter of this year just as our order pipeline grows,” said Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, President of Comstock Metals.

Comstock Metals 

Comstock Metals has now been operating its first commercial demonstration facility for nearly two years and in November of 2024, submitted permits for the first industry-scale photovoltaic recycling facility in northern Nevada. The permits were received in early January of 2026. Comstock Metals has also selected its second site in the southern part of the State of Nevada. These industry-scale facilities are designed for recycling up to 3.3 million panels (or approximately 100,000 tons) of annual capacity, with operations for the first facility commencing post commissioning activities during the first quarter of 2026 for operations in the second quarter 2026. 

Additional site selection activities are ongoing for the next five industry-scale facilities (that is, industry-scale recycling facilities #3-#7) and multiple associated storage sites and at least one centralized, industrial scale refining facility capable of handling the metals-rich tailings produced by its recycling facilities. 

The Company's Metals objectives for 2026 include:

● Receive, deploy, assemble and commission our first industry-scale facility in Silver Springs, NV;

● Operate our first industry-scale facility in Silver Springs profitably;

● Secure additional Master Service Agreements (MSA) with national and regional customers;

● Select and secure additional sites, expand storage capabilities and secure permits for these additional sites;

● Submit permits for our second industry-scale facility in southern, NV;

● Procure the equipment for our second industry-scale recycling and processing facility and commence commissioning;

● Complete site selection for at least three additional solar panel recycling locations and commence permitting;

● Evaluate international expansion opportunities with international strategic and capital partners; and

● Advance development efforts, with strategic partners, to recover more and higher-purity materials from recycled streams.

The capital expenditures for each of the first and second facilities with 100,000 tons of annual capacity are expected to be approximately $14.0 million each, which includes expanded storage. The Company estimates total capital spending of approximately $13.0 million to be fully paid by the end of the first quarter of 2026. Revenues were three times greater in 2025 of $1.4 million, as compared to 2024 of $0.4 million. Total billings in 2025 were over $3.5 million. Master Service Agreements are being signed with major utility and electronic recycling aggregators across the U.S. and particularly in the southwest regions including California, Arizona and Nevada. Future revenue growth will depend on the rate of customer replacements, pricing, and operating performance as the Company scales production.

Comstock Mining 

Comstock Mining has amassed the single largest known land position within the Comstock mineral district, including an extensive repository of drilling data, engineering, and gold and silver resources, including the Lucerne and Dayton resources. 

The Company's Mining objectives for 2026 include: 

● Commercialize agreements that monetize our mining and related mining beneficiation assets; and

● Publish the Dayton Consolidated Project technical work with preliminary economics and sensitivities.

The Company’s 2026 efforts will be to monetize these assets completely or partially, with partners willing to acquire and deploy capital and capacity to develop, advance and ultimately further monetize these assets to the benefit our shareholders. 

Bioleum 

Bioleum is actively engaged in the expansion of its pilot production facilities and the planning for its first commercial demonstration facilities and the associated supply chain participants (including feedstock, site selection, engineering, construction and offtake).

● Commercialize at least one major project that integrates our technology solutions into existing production platforms; and

● Advance our innovation and development efforts toward even higher yields, lower costs and lower capital.

Bioleum also offers integrations of its solutions into existing agriculture, forestry, pulp and paper, ethanol, and existing petroleum infrastructures to generate additional capacities, revenues, technical services, engineering and royalties. The plans also include integrating Bioleum’s high yield Bioleum refining platform with Hexas’ high yield energy crops to provide enough feedstock to produce upwards of 100 barrels of fuel per acre per year, effectively transforming agricultural lands into perpetual “drop-in sedimentary oilfields” with the potential to dramatically boost domestic energy resources.

Summary

“In 2026, we plan on increasing our early mover advantage in solar panel recycling as we commission our first industry-scale facility, select and secure the next three sites for processing and storage and rapidly expand our national footprint,” concluded Mr. De Gasperis. “We are winning in the market and continue securing and forging market share from the largest and fasting growing customers while advancing refining development efforts to recover more and higher-purity metals and materials.”
