Falcon Energy Materials Uplists to OTCQB Venture Market to Enhance U.S. Investor Access
Falcon Energy Materials has uplisted from the OTC Pink market to the OTCQB Venture Market, a strategic move that enhances the company's visibility and access to U.S. investors while supporting its growth as a provider of critical battery materials.
Falcon Energy Materials plc has been approved to uplist from the OTC Pink market to the OTCQB Venture Market, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. This transition to the premier U.S. marketplace for early-stage and developing companies represents a significant corporate milestone that could substantially impact the company's market presence and investor accessibility.
The OTCQB, established in 2010, provides improved visibility and greater access to U.S. investors and is recognized by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as an established public market.

Falcon's shares will trade on the OTCQB under the ticker symbol "FLCNF" while continuing to trade on the Toronto TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "FLCN."
This uplisting carries important implications for Falcon's growth trajectory and market positioning. The company believes this milestone will enhance liquidity, increase transparency, and broaden its exposure to both retail and institutional investors in the U.S. capital markets. The move aligns with Falcon's strategic objective of becoming a key player in the energy storage materials sector, particularly as demand for battery components continues to grow globally.
Matthieu Bos, Chief Executive Officer of Falcon, emphasized the strategic importance of this development, stating that trading on the OTCQB Venture Market aligns with the company's commitment to increasing shareholder value, improving market visibility, and maintaining high standards of corporate governance. This uplisting occurs as Falcon progresses toward developing a state-of-the-art 25 ktpa Coated Spheronized Purified Graphite production facility in Morocco.
The company's focus on becoming the premier provider of natural CSPG, a critical component for energy storage solutions, positions it at the forefront of the evolving battery materials market. With strategic partnerships with leading Chinese technology firms and Tier One Moroccan partners, Falcon benefits from advanced technological expertise and access to high-quality raw materials.

The uplisting to OTCQB represents more than just a change in trading venue—it signals Falcon's maturation as a public company and its readiness to engage with the broader U.S. investment community. This enhanced market presence could facilitate future capital raising efforts and strategic partnerships as the company advances its Moroccan production facility, which is projected to generate substantial EBITDA upon becoming operational.
