Summary

USA Rare Earth filed pro forma financial statements showing what the combined company would look like after merging with Serra Verde Group, covering Q1 2026 and full-year 2025. The filing comes as USAR prepares for a shareholder vote on the merger, with a preliminary proxy statement already submitted to the SEC on May 13.

The pro forma numbers give investors their first detailed look at the financial profile of the post-merger entity. Retail holders should pay close attention to the Department of Commerce financing arrangement, which appears to significantly constrain the company's flexibility. The DOC holds an equity interest and has imposed extensive covenants, domestic content requirements, and national security provisions.

Most concerning: defaults under DOC agreements could cascade across all company financing, and the arrangement restricts USAR's ability to pursue strategic transactions. With multiple pending acquisitions (Carester and Texas Mineral Resources) and a Stillwater magnet facility not yet operational, execution risk is elevated. Watch for the definitive proxy statement and merger vote date. The pro forma financials in Exhibit 99.1 will show combined revenue, costs, and cash position—critical for assessing whether this merger strengthens or stretches the balance sheet given the restrictive DOC financing and multiple development projects underway.
