GREATER SUDBURY, ON, Feb. 27, 2026 /CNW/ - Frontier Lithium Inc. (TSXV: FL) (FRA: HL2) (OTC: LITOF) ("Frontier" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its recent and upcoming participation in key industry events, as well as announce its third quarter financial results.
Frontier recently participated in the Precious Metals & Critical Minerals Virtual Investor Conference, a live, interactive online investor event hosted by VirtualInvestorConferences.com where the Company presented to a broad audience of individual and institutional investors and engaged one-on-one with market participants.
The Company attended the 35th Annual BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference in Hollywood, Florida, from February 22–25, 2026. Frontier met with investors, partners, and industry professionals. Discussions emphasized that critical minerals are now viewed as a national security issue, with access to capital being the main challenge rather than geology. The U.S. Government signaled openness to investing in global projects supporting American supply chains. Lithium sentiment was positive, driven by demand for energy storage and concerns over reliance on Chinese supply.
Frontier Lithium was also pleased to participate in the recent Canadian Critical Minerals Investment Forum hosted by Natural Resources Canada and Invest in Canada. Engagements were held across Rome, Munich, and Paris joining Canadian critical mineral mining peers to showcase our projects and to strengthen collaboration with European governments, investors and industrial partners. In all engagements, discussions advanced cooperation under bilateral critical minerals frameworks and the G7 Alliance on the Production of Critical Minerals, reinforcing a shared commitment to standards-based markets and responsible development and explore new partnerships across strategic sectors. Across all forums, Frontier showcased its investment-ready lithium assets and reaffirmed its commitment to safe, sustainable and long-term development in support of resilient North American and European battery supply chains.
In addition, Frontier will be attending the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) 2026 Convention, taking place between March 1 – 4, 2026, at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, the world's premier mineral exploration and mining event bringing together global industry leaders, investors, governments and service providers. Frontier will be exhibiting at Booth No. 3236 in the Investors Exchange and scheduled to deliver a corporate presentation as part of PDAC's "Electric Materials 2" session on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, from 3:30 p.m. in Room 801B at the MTCC, highlighting its project developments and investment story to an audience of investors and industry participants
The Company also reports the filing of its interim financial results for the third quarter ended December 31, 2025. Frontier closed the quarter with $12 million in cash and cash equivalents, supporting continued project advancement and corporate activities. The quarter and subsequent period reflect continued execution across key workstreams, including consultation activities under Ontario's One Project, One Process (1P1P) framework and strengthened engagement with local First Nations, culminating in the execution of formal process agreements in January 2026 with Deer Lake and Sandy Lake First Nations to advance collaborative permitting for the Company's PAK Project (the "PAK Project" or "Project). Earlier in the quarter, the PAK Project was selected as Ontario's first lithium project under the 1P1P framework, helping streamline the provincial permitting pathway. Frontier also continued advancing refinery pre-definitive feasibility study work with its engineering partner, including value engineering initiatives across the mine and mill flowsheet, and released an independent socioeconomic impact study highlighting the Project's significant economic, employment and regional benefits. Most recently, the Company welcomed the announcement of the start of construction of the Berens Bridge and Road Project by Ministry of Northern Economic Development and Growth. Collectively, these milestones demonstrate measurable progress toward de-risking and advancing the PAK Project.
Frontier's condensed interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying management's discussion and analysis for the three month period ended December 31, 2025 have been filed on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and can be viewed under the company's website at https://www.frontierlithium.com/.
