Li-Cycle Holdings Corp. (NYSE: LICY) ("Li-Cycle" or the “Company"), an industry leader in lithium-ion battery resource recovery and the leading lithium-ion battery recycler in North America, today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended October 31, 2021. For the fiscal Q4 2021 and full fiscal year 2021, revenues increased to $4.4 million and $7.4 million from $0.5 million and $0.8 million in fiscal Q4 2020 and fiscal year 2020, respectively.

“We were pleased with our strong fourth quarter performance. The growth in our revenues exemplified the strong operational and commercial execution by the Li-Cycle team. We now have approximately 85 battery supply customer sources. We produced approximately 1,900 tonnes of black mass at the Kingston and Rochester Spokes during fiscal 2021, with more than 800 tonnes of black mass produced during the fourth quarter alone, and 100% of this production sold under off-take agreements.” said Ajay Kochhar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Li-Cycle.

"We also made significant strides on our Spoke and Hub strategy, competitively positioning Li-Cycle as the leading North American lithium-ion battery recycler. In aligning with our key commercial and strategic partners, we now expect to have annual Spoke processing capacity of up to 45,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery input and Hub processing capacity of 90,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery equivalent input in North America. We have the necessary funding available to support our expanded Rochester Hub and planned Spokes, including our initial launch into Europe," added Mr. Kochhar.

Demand Trends

Rising consumer adoption of EVs is driving global automotive OEMs to increase their manufacturing capacity to ensure EV sales market share. Growing cell, module and pack manufacturing is accelerating the need for scrap recycling in the near to medium term. At least 5% to 10% of lithium-ion battery manufacturing volumes are typically lost or rejected as scrap. End-of-life EV batteries available for recycling will augment this recycling growth in the long term.

North America is emerging as an important region for the lithium-ion battery supply chain. As battery manufacturers and automotive OEMs increasingly establish operations in the region, the Company expects this will lead to increased quantities of battery manufacturing scrap for recycling. It is estimated that the existing North American mega-factory capacity will grow from approximately 45 GWh in 2021 to more than 500 GWh by 2025. European mega-factory capacity is also projected to grow from 37 GWh in 2021 to more than 930 GWh by 2030.

Spoke & Hub Network:

Li-Cycle reiterates its global 2025 network targets of at least 100,000 tonnes of annual lithium-ion battery equivalent Spoke processing capacity (equivalent to approximately 20 GWh of lithium-ion batteries) and a centralized network of at least 220,000 tonnes of annual lithium-ion battery equivalent Hub processing capacity (equivalent to approximately 44 GWh of lithium-ion batteries). In the near to medium term, the Company expects its expansion efforts to focus on North America and Europe. The Company is also opportunistically exploring investments in Asia Pacific. Li-Cycle will continue to partner with multiple customers in each region in connection with supply and off-take arrangements.

To date, Li-Cycle has announced annual lithium-ion battery processing capacity for its Spokes in operation, construction and advanced development totaling 65,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery input/year and Hub capacity under construction of approximately 90,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery equivalent input/year (35,000 tonnes of black mass input/year).

Spokes in Construction and Advanced Development:

  • North America
    • Arizona and Alabama Spokes: each of these Spoke facilities is expected to have an annual processing capacity of 10,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery input/year and is currently under construction and expected to commence operations in 2022.
    • Ohio Spoke: with expected annual processing capacity of 15,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery input/year, this Spoke will be co-located at Ultium Cells LLC’s battery cell manufacturing mega-factory, based on a multi-year agreement to process the mega-factory's battery manufacturing scrap. The facility is expected to be operational in early 2023.
  • Europe
    • Norway Spoke: Li-Cycle’s inaugural European Spoke is being developed through a joint venture with Norwegian Morrow Batteries and ECO STOR. It is expected to have an annual processing capacity of 10,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery input/year, with operations expected to begin in early 2023.
    • Germany Spoke: The Company is targeting its second Spoke in Europe to be in Germany. It is expected to have an annual processing capacity of 10,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery input/year.

Rochester Hub:

Li-Cycle expects the Rochester Hub will have the nameplate input capacity to process 35,000 tonnes of black mass annually (equivalent to approximately 90,000 tonnes of lithium-ion battery equivalent feed annually). With this capacity, the Rochester Hub will have the ability to process battery material that is equivalent to approximately 225,000 electric vehicles per year or 18 GWh of lithium-ion batteries.

The Company expects annual production output from the Rochester Hub to be approximately 42,000 to 48,000 tonnes of nickel sulphate, 7,500 to 8,500 tonnes of lithium carbonate and 6,500 to 7,500 tonnes of cobalt sulphate.

Li-Cycle expects to commission the Rochester Hub in 2023, subject to receipt of remaining regulatory and other approvals. Li-Cycle estimates that the Rochester Hub will require a total capital investment of approximately $485 million (+/-15%).

Financial Review for the Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Full Year Ended October 31, 2021

Financial Results for Fourth Quarter 2021

Revenues for the quarter increased 836% to $4.4 million, compared to $0.5 million in the same quarter last year, driven by increases in recycling services and product sales, primarily as a result of the increase in the quantities of batteries and battery scrap processed at the Rochester Spoke and the continued onboarding of new battery supply customers. Revenues from product sales were approximately $4.2 million, while revenues from recycling services were approximately $0.1 million.

Operating expenses for the quarter increased to $18.6 million, compared to $5.0 million during the same period last year, driven by increased personnel costs, share-based compensation, professional fees and administrative costs in support of a public company. In addition, a ramp-up of operations at the Kingston and Rochester Spokes resulted in increases in raw materials, supplies, and logistics costs.

Net loss in the quarter was approximately $205.0 million, compared to approximately $4.4 million in the prior-year period. This was primarily driven by the impact of a listing fee of $152.7 million related to the Business Combination and $35.8 million of fair value loss on financial instruments.

Adjusted EBITDA (loss) was $(11.5) million, compared to $(4.1) million for the prior-year period1. This was largely driven by higher staffing and network development costs related to the growth and expansion of the business, as discussed in relation to operating expenses noted above.

Cash flows used in operating activities were approximately $11.3 million, compared to $1.8 million during the same period last year, primarily driven by increased personnel costs, increased professional fees and admin costs in support of a public company, a ramp up of operations at the Kingston Spoke and Rochester Spoke, increases in raw materials and supplies. The cash outflows were partially offset by cash receipts from increased sales.

Financial Results for Full Year 2021:

Revenues increased approximately 831% to approximately $7.4 million, compared to approximately $0.8 million in the prior-year period, driven by increases in recycling services and product sales, primarily as a result of the increase in the quantities of batteries and battery scrap processed at the Kingston and Rochester Spokes and the continued onboarding of new battery supply customers. Revenues from product sales were approximately $6.9 million, while revenues from recycling services were approximately $0.4 million.

Operating expenses increased to approximately $39.2 million, compared to approximately $9.9 million during the prior-year period, driven by increased personnel costs, share-based compensation, professional fees and admin costs in support of a public company. In addition, a ramp up of operations at the Kingston and Rochester Spokes resulted in increases in raw materials, supplies, and logistics costs. The year-over-year increase in R&D expenditure was primarily due to R&D expenses in 2020 being largely funded by government grants, the amortization of which offset the applicable R&D expense for accounting purposes.

Net loss was approximately $226.6 million, compared to approximately $9.3 million in the prior-year period. This was primarily driven by the impact of listing fee of $152.7 million related to the Business Combination and $38.3 million of fair value loss on financial instruments.

Adjusted EBITDA (loss) was approximately $25.4 million for the twelve months ended October 31, 2021, compared to approximately $8.0 million for the prior-year period. This was largely driven by higher staffing and network development costs related to the growth and expansion of the business, as discussed in relation to operating expenses noted above.

Cash flows used in operating activities were approximately $27.8 million, compared to approximately $7.4 million during the prior-year period, primarily driven by increased personnel costs, professional fees and admin costs in support of a public company. In addition, a ramp up of operations at the Kingston Spoke and Rochester Spoke resulted in increases in raw materials and supplies, and logistics costs. The cash outflows were partially offset by cash receipts from increased sales.

Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $596.9 million as of October 31, 2021. On August 10, 2021, Li-Cycle completed the Business Combination, resulting in net proceeds of $525.3 million. On September 29, 2021, Li-Cycle issued a convertible note to Spring Creek Capital ("Koch Strategic Platforms"), resulting in net proceeds of $98.4 million.

There were 163,179,653 common shares outstanding as of October 31, 2021.

Li-Cycle reports its financial results in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The Company makes references to certain non-IFRS measures, including Adjusted EBITDA. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing a further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for the analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. Li-Cycle defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest expense (income), income tax expense (recovery), foreign exchange (gain) loss, fair value (gain) loss on financial instruments, and non-recurring expenses such as forfeited SPAC transaction cost, listing fee, and accelerated vesting of share-based compensation related to the Business Combination.
