NEW YORK, Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TMC the metals company Inc. (Nasdaq: TMC) ("TMC" or "the Company"), a leading developer of the world's largest resource of critical metals essential to energy, defense, manufacturing and infrastructure, today provided a corporate update and second quarter financial results for the period ended June 30, 2026.
Q2 2026 Financial Highlights
-- Current liquidity available from our cash on hand and our credit
facilities of approximately $143 million as of June 30, 2026
-- $20.1 million cash used in operations for the quarter ended June 30,
2026, which included $9 million in withholdings related to equity awards
collected at the end of March 2026 and remitted in early April 2026
-- Net loss of $60.1 million and net loss per share of $0.14 for the quarter
ended June 30, 2026
U.S. Government Funding Update
-- The Company is actively engaged in funding processes with multiple U.S.
agencies named in President Trump's Executive Order 14285 regarding plans
to build nodule processing and refining capacity in the United States
-- While these processes continue confidentially, the Company does not
currently intend to pursue other capital market transactions until such
time as one or more of these processes are completed
-- The Company will provide more substantive detail at the appropriate time
TMC USA's Applications Continue Progressing Through NOAA Review
-- TMC USA's consolidated USA-A application and USA-B exploration license
application continue to progress through NOAA's review under DSHMRA and
its implementing regulations
-- Based on NOAA guidance, the Company continues to expect the permit in
advance of targeted Q4 2027 offshore collection system commissioning; the
rigor of NOAA's review supports the permit's long-term durability and
legal defensibility and reinforces the high standards applicable to all
applicants
-- The Company's USA-A area covers approximately 65,000 km(2) with an
estimated 619 million tonnes of wet nodules and potential exploration
upside of an additional 200 million tonnes; the USA-B area covers
approximately 122,000 km(2) and hosts an estimated 1.02 billion tonnes of
polymetallic nodules
Strategic Partnerships Progress Key Offshore and Onshore Developments
-- On July 21, 2026, TMC USA entered into a Master Services Agreement with
Mariana Minerals for a phased program to advance a proposed polymetallic
nodule processing and refining industry park at the Port of Brownsville,
Texas, beginning with mobilization, concept development and technical
design work to establish plant feasibility and design basis -- building
on the internal prefeasibility study commissioned by TMC USA from a
third-party engineering firm
-- Allseas continued engineering, project management and vessel-use
activities during the second quarter of 2026 under its definitive
agreement with TMC to develop, commission and operate the Hidden Gem
commercial nodule collection system, designed for a nameplate capacity of
3.0 million wet tonnes per annum
-- On July 22, 2026, TMC signed a Mutual Master Services Agreement ("MMSA")
with U.S. exploration company Eco Minerals intended to expand TMC's
offshore capabilities through exclusive vessel charter access and
advanced seafloor mapping, sampling and autonomous survey services, while
enabling the companies to jointly pursue third-party opportunities. Under
the agreement, TMC will provide Eco Minerals with environmental and
regulatory advisory services. Under a separate MoU, TMC USA has provided
Eco Minerals with a non-binding offtake for Eco Minerals' nodules to be
processed in TMC USA's planned U.S. facility with Mariana Minerals,
subject to definitive agreements, government financing and required
approvals.
U.S. Reaffirms Its Right to Exercise High Seas Freedoms as ITLOS Protects NORI and TOML's Due Process Rights
-- Last month at the ISA proceedings in Kingston, Jamaica, the United States
strongly reiterated that it is not a party to UNCLOS and does not regard
Part XI or the 1994 Agreement as customary international law
-- On July 18, 2026, the Seabed Disputes Chamber of the International
Tribunal for the Law of the Sea ("ITLOS") prescribed provisional measures
recognizing the rights of the Company's subsidiaries, Nauru Ocean
Resources Inc. ("NORI") and Tonga Offshore Mining Limited ("TOML"), to
due process and fair treatment in their proceedings against the ISA
ISA Approves NORI's Exploration Contract Extension
-- On July 20, 2026, the ISA Council approved by consensus a five-year
extension of NORI's exploration contract in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone
Gerard Barron, Chairman & CEO of TMC, commented: "The regulatory picture is becoming clearer as our applications continue to progress through NOAA's review process. There has been a delay of a few months in the USA-A consolidated application certification process, but we remain confident that the permit will arrive well in advance of offshore vessel commissioning by the end of 2027, which we believe remains the critical path for production start. The rigor of NOAA's review is ultimately helpful for the permit's legal defensibility in the coming decades.
The United States has strongly reiterated through its engagement at the ISA its longstanding position that it is not a party to UNCLOS, and that 'the United States is not bound by Convention rules dealing with seabed mining through the International Seabed Authority.' That clarity matters as America moves to develop these critical seabed resources responsibly under U.S. law.
Our planned operations are taking shape offshore and onshore. Allseas is moving from commercial framework to execution, carrying out the engineering, project management and vessel work needed to transform the Hidden Gem from a successful pilot into an integrated commercial production system. We believe our agreement with Eco Minerals gives us greater access to survey vessel and AUV capacity needed to explore effectively, while opening the door to joint projects and potential processing collaboration as those opportunities mature. Onshore, TMC USA is moving forward with Mariana Minerals as part of its owner's team for a phased program at the Port of Brownsville, beginning with concept development and technical design work to establish plant feasibility, design basis, key trade-offs and targets for the operating agreement. As I've said before, our future onshore capital spending domestically is contingent on a majority of the funding coming from U.S. government sources. The momentum is continuing with advanced funding processes in progress with multiple U.S. agencies.
Finally, I was pleased to be invited to Washington, D.C. last week for the President's American Mining Roundtable, which included significant airtime for seafloor resources and further underscored what the U.S. State Department reiterated in July at the ISA meeting: 'responsible seabed mineral development is a strategic national security and economic priority.'
A secure U.S. critical seabed minerals supply chain is moving from policy ambition to physical execution, and TMC is proud to play a leading role."
Operational Highlights
TMC USA Enters into MSA with Mariana Minerals
On July 21, 2026, TMC USA entered into a Master Services Agreement with Mariana Minerals for a phased program to advance a proposed polymetallic nodule processing and refining industry park at the Port of Brownsville, Texas, beginning with mobilization, concept development and technical design work to establish plant feasibility and design basis, as well as a trade-off and opportunity assessment program for Phase 1, Stage 1 of the proposed onshore nodule processing facility in the Port of Brownsville, Texas.
TMC and Eco Minerals Enter Exclusive Offshore Survey and Exploration Services Agreement
On July 22, 2026, TMC and Eco Minerals entered into a Mutual Master Services Agreement under which Eco Minerals will serve, subject to vessel availability, as TMC's exclusive provider of vessel charter and marine survey services, including advanced seafloor mapping, sampling and autonomous survey capabilities. TMC will provide Eco Minerals with environmental and regulatory advisory services, drawing on its offshore assessment and permitting experience. The companies may jointly pursue third-party survey and exploration services opportunities. The agreement builds on an existing memorandum of understanding identifying TMC as a potential processing partner for Eco Minerals, subject to a standards-compliant prefeasibility study, due diligence, definitive agreements and required regulatory approvals.
TMC USA's USA-A and USA-B Applications Continue Through DSHMRA Review
NOAA's review of TMC USA's consolidated USA-A exploration license and commercial recovery permit application and USA-B exploration license application continues under DSHMRA and its implementing regulations. NOAA formally certified the USA-B application on May 26, 2026; certification is an intermediate eligibility determination, not the final issuance of a license or permit. The rigor of NOAA's review supports the long-term durability and legal defensibility of any licenses or permits issued and reinforces the high standards applicable to all applicants. The USA-A application area covers approximately 65,000 km(2) of seafloor and contains an estimated 619 million tonnes of polymetallic nodules, with potential upside of approximately 200 million additional tonnes; the USA-B application area covers approximately 122,000 km(2) of seafloor and hosts an estimated 1.02 billion tonnes of polymetallic nodules based on TMC's Technical Report Summary for the Initial Assessment published in August 2025.
International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea Unanimously Orders ISA to Respect NORI and TOML's Due Process Rights. NORI Exploration Contract Renewed
On July 18, 2026, the Seabed Disputes Chamber of ITLOS ordered the prescription of provisional measures to protect the rights of our subsidiaries, NORI and TOML, in their proceedings against the ISA. In the first contentious cases ever decided by the Chamber under Part XI of UNCLOS, the Chamber confirmed its jurisdiction, recognized that NORI and TOML have rights to due process and fair treatment, found a real and imminent risk of irreparable prejudice to those rights, and prescribed provisional measures requiring the ISA to act in accordance with the applicable legal framework, including rules of due process.
Following the ruling, the ISA Council approved by consensus a five-year extension of NORI's exploration contract in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone. Together, TMC believes these decisions provide greater regulatory certainty for NORI and its Sponsoring State, Naoero (formerly known as Nauru), and demonstrate that ITLOS is a vital part of the institutional machinery established under UNCLOS, ensuring critical oversight and accountability.
NOAA Certifies TMC USA's USA-B Exploration License Application
On May 26, 2026, NOAA formally certified the USA-B exploration license application submitted by our U.S. subsidiary, TMC USA. Certification is an intermediate determination by NOAA confirming an applicant's eligibility (based on financial responsibility, technological capability, prior obligations, and plan adequacy) for an exploration license or commercial recovery permit, but it is not the final issuance of that license or permit.
TMC and Allseas Sign Commercial Agreement for the First Offshore Nodule Recovery Operation
On May 11, 2026, we announced that we had signed a Contract for Development Work and Commercial Production with our strategic partner and investor Allseas, a global leader in offshore pipeline installation, heavy lift and subsea construction, for the development, commissioning and operation of the first commercial polymetallic nodule collection system. The agreement establishes the commercial framework for advancing offshore nodule recovery operations and builds on the successful pilot collection test completed in 2022. The commercial system is expected to have a nameplate production capacity of 3.0 million wet tonnes of nodules per annum, with commissioning targeted to begin in Q4 2027, subject to regulatory approvals.
NOAA Determines TMC USA's Consolidated Deep-Seabed Mining Application for USA-A Area is in Full Compliance
On April 28, 2026, NOAA determined that the consolidated application by our subsidiary, TMC USA, for an exploration license and commercial recovery permit for the USA-A area under DSHMRA is in full compliance with the requirements of the Act and its implementing regulations, marking a key step in the U.S. regulatory and permitting process. The news follows the earlier determination of substantial compliance of the application on March 6, 2026, and represents another step along the path of regulatory milestones.
TMC Subsidiaries Submit Massive Deep-Sea Dataset to Public Database as Company Launches Video Series on Findings of Environmental Research
On April 15, 2026, we announced that our subsidiaries, NORI and TOML, had submitted extensive environmental datasets to the ISA's DeepData database, covering a decade of exploration activities in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone. The submission includes data from 777 equipment deployments and more than 4,800 environmental samples, generating approximately 76,000 biological records and 69,185 geochemical data points across the full water column and seafloor environment. Key findings are showcased in a new video series demonstrating how the data addresses environmental concerns and how innovation has reduced the impact footprint of TMC's collection system versus legacy technology.
Industry Update
The Metals Royalty Co. (Nasdaq: TMCR) Begins Public Trading
On April 8, 2026, The Metals Royalty Co. began public trading (Nasdaq: TMCR). TMCR has a 2.0% Gross Overriding Royalty on the NORI area from a 2023 transaction which was previously announced. As part of the agreement, TMC was granted an equity stake in TMCR, which currently represents 22.4% of TMCR's outstanding equity following our additional investment in TMCR in May 2026. TMC retains the right to repurchase up to 75% of the NORI Royalty at an agreed capped return, exercisable in two transactions, between the second and the tenth anniversary of the agreement. If both repurchase transactions are executed, TMCR's remaining gross overriding royalty on the NORI project revenue will be 0.5%.
U.S. Department of State Commentary at ISA and UN Meetings
The U.S. has once again reminded the world of the strategic opportunity presented by the responsible development of deep seabed minerals, and its clear and longstanding legal right to regulate their exploration and commercial recovery in the high seas. In a statement delivered last month at the ISA, the U.S. State Department commented:
"For the United States, responsible seabed mineral development is a strategic national security and economic priority; we view seabed minerals in the broader context of critical mineral supply chain security. Global demand for critical minerals is rising rapidly, and diversified supply chains are necessary for geopolitical and economic stability. Humankind depends on modern technologies. It is prudent that we acknowledge that ocean resources can meet this demand with impacts significantly lower than many land-based alternatives."
Financial Results Overview
At June 30, 2026, we held cash of approximately $98.7 million and held no financial debt. We believe that our cash position will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure commitments for at least the next twelve months from today.
We reported a net loss of approximately $60.1 million, or $0.14 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $74.3 million, or $0.20 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Exploration and evaluation expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 were $56.1 million compared to $10.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The second quarter of 2026 included $37.2 million in settlement of initial costs and other negotiated costs owed to Allseas following the signing of a development and operating agreement, higher share-based compensation expense and an increase in prefeasibility study costs.
General and administrative expenses were $15.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to $11.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, reflecting higher share-based compensation and payroll costs.
