On January 30, 2026, Elektros Inc. announced it has retained Ludlow Consulting as its strategic communications advisor to elevate its institutional-grade messaging, media relations and shareholder engagement. The multi-year agreement includes development of an integrated public relations, media relations and investor relations framework aligned with public company best practices and regulatory compliance standards. Ludlow Consulting will deploy a dedicated team to coordinate quarterly earnings announcements, targeted conference presentations and tailored investor roadshows across North America and Europe, aiming to reach more than 500 buy-side and sell-side analysts over the next 12 months.

Under the renewed mandate, Elektros will implement Ludlow’s proprietary AI-enabled investor engagement platform to track real-time sentiment, automate personalized outreach and optimize press release distribution. The platform integrates machine-learning algorithms that analyze over 2,000 media outlets daily, providing metrics on share of voice, sentiment scores and engagement benchmarks. This technology will support Elektros’s efforts to increase retail and institutional investor participation by 25% in the coming year, with targeted campaigns in key markets such as Germany, Japan and Canada.

Electros’s Sierra Leone project, located in the Tinkoko Chiefdom of Bo District, reached a crucial milestone on August 15, 2024, when the Company executed a joint-venture ground lease agreement securing rights to 4,500 hectares of spodumene-rich formations. The project’s definitive feasibility study, completed in October 2025, estimated recoverable lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) reserves of 18 million tonnes at an average grade of 1.2%. With first production targeted for Q4 2027, Elektros plans an initial output of 20,000 tonnes LCE per annum, scaling to 60,000 tonnes by 2030 to support accelerating global electric vehicle battery demand.
