Financially, Lithium Argentina held $64 million in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2025, with $231 million of net debt for Cauchari-Olaroz. Ganfeng provided a $130 million debt facility to support corporate refinancing and enhance liquidity.

The Company uses non-GAAP financial measures like Cash Operating Costs and Total Cash Costs per tonne to provide insight into its cost structure. These measures exclude non-cash and non-operating items for better comparability of operating performance.
