#1MP MATERIALS Gabelli Funds 45th Annual Auto Symposium Ryan Corbett - Chief Financial Officer November 1, 2021#2Safe Harbor This presentation contains certain statements that are not historical facts and are forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor provisions under the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of the words such as "estimate," "plan," "project," "forecast," "intend," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "seek," "will," "target," or similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of other financial and performance metrics, regarding the expected timing of completion of Stage II, expectations and timing of Stage III developments, including the location for Stage III, and projections of market opportunity. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this presentation, and on the current expectations of MP Materials Corp.'s ("MP Materials" or "MP") management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and must not be relied on by any investor as a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of MP Materials. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the business combination; risks relating to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to MP Materials; risks related to the rollout of MP Materials' business strategy, including Stage II and Stage III, and the timing of expected business milestones; risks related to the construction of Stage II, including timing for completion and costs; risks related to MP Materials' arrangements with Shenghe; the effects of competition on MP Materials' future business; risks related to political and macroeconomic uncertainty; the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, including the Delta variant and other variants, on any of the foregoing risks; risks related to MP's ability to comply with various government regulations that are applicable to its business; risks relate to MP's ability to maintain its governmental licenses, registrations, permits, and approvals necessary for its business; and those factors discussed in MP Materials' Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, and MP Materials' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, under the heading "Risk Factors," and other documents to be filed by MP Materials, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If any of these risks materialize or our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that MP Materials does not presently know or that MP Materials currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition, forward-looking statements reflect MP Materials' expectations, plans or forecasts of future events and views as of the date of this presentation. MP Materials anticipates that subsequent events and developments will cause MP Materials' assessments to change. However, while MP Materials may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, MP Materials specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, unless required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing MP Materials' assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed upon the forward-looking statements. MP MATERIALS 2#3Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Total Value Realized, Production Costs, Free Cash Flow, Normalized Stage I Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow, which have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). We define Adjusted EBITDA as our GAAP net income or loss before interest expense, net; income tax expense or benefit; and depreciation, depletion and amortization; further adjusted to eliminate the impact of stock-based compensation expense; transaction-related and other non-recurring costs; non-cash accretion of asset retirement and environmental obligations; gain or loss on sale or disposal of long-lived assets; write-down of inventories; royalty expense to SNR; tariff rebates; and other income or loss, net. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as our Adjusted EBITDA divided by our product sales adjusted for the revenue impact of tariff-related rebates from Shenghe on account of prior sales. Adjusted Net Income is defined as our GAAP net income or loss excluding the impact of depletion; stock- based compensation expense; transaction-related and other non-recurring costs; gain or loss on sale or disposal of long-lived assets; write-downs of inventories; royalty expense to SNR; tariff rebates; and other income or loss, net; adjusted to give effect to the income tax impact of such adjustments. Total Value Realized, which we use to calculate realized price per REO MT, is defined as our product sales adjusted for the revenue impact of tariff-related rebates from Shenghe on account of prior sales, and, in connection with our sales of REO to Shenghe between July 1, 2019, and June 5, 2020, the Shenghe Implied Discount. The Shenghe Implied Discount is equal to the difference between (i) Shenghe's average realized price, net of taxes, tariffs and certain other agreed-upon charges (such as one-time demurrage charges) on our products once sold to their ultimate customers and (ii) the amount of revenue we recognized on the sales of those products to Shenghe for sales between July 1, 2019, and June 5, 2020, which includes a non-cash portion. Realized price per REO MT is calculated as the quotient of: (i) our Total Value Realized for a given period and (ii) our REO sales volume for the same period. Production Costs, which we use to calculate production cost per REO MT, is defined as our cost of sales (excluding depreciation, depletion and amortization), less stock-based compensation expense included in cost of sales, shipping and freight costs, and costs attributable to certain other sales, for a given period. Production cost per REO MT is calculated as the quotient of: (i) our Production Costs for a given period and (ii) our REO sales volume for the same period. We define Free Cash Flow as net cash provided by or used in operating activities less additions of property, plant and equipment, net of proceeds received from government awards used for construction. Normalized Stage I Free Cash Flow is defined as Free Cash Flow plus (i) the non-cash portion of revenue from sales to Shenghe (i.e., Offtake Paydown), (ii) growth capital expenditures, and (iii) expenditures for transaction-related and other non-recurring costs. We define Adjusted Operating Cash Flow as net cash provided by or used in operating activities plus the non-cash portion of revenue from sales to Shenghe. You can find the reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures in the Appendix. MP Materials' management uses Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Net Income, to compare MP Materials' performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses and for budgeting and planning purposes. MP Materials believes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Net Income provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to MP Materials' financial condition and results of operations. MP Materials believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, and Adjusted Net Income provide an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projected operating results and trends. MP Materials believes realized price per REO MT, which utilizes the non-GAAP financial measure, Total Value Realized, is an important measure of the market price of the Company's product. Furthermore, MP Materials believes production cost per REO MT sold, which utilizes the non-GAAP financial measure, Production Costs, is a key indicator of the Company's production efficiency. We believe Free Cash Flow, Normalized Stage I Free Cash Flow, and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow, are useful for comparing our ability to generate cash with that of our peers. Free Cash Flow is not meant to be considered in isolation or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. MP Materials' method of determining these non-GAAP measures may be different from other companies' methods and, therefore, may not be comparable to those used by other companies and MP Materials does not recommend the sole use of these non-GAAP measures to assess its financial performance. Management does not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative or to be superior to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of non-GAAP financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in MP Materials' financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents reconciliations of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
