Energy Fuels wins ASM approval, advances toward August closing

Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Milestone completion reduces execution risk, expands assets, and potentially de-risks financing; close proximity to closing date typically lifts probabilities of positive rerating for Energy Fuels (EFR). Dilution risk exists from new EFR CHESS Depositary Interests to ASM holders, but near-term focus is on completion and integration.
