JUSTIFIEDCONFIDENCE5/5ABAT is up 13.1% pre-market after receiving approval to sell up to $100 million of recycled black mass material under specified export terms. The concrete government authorization and sizable potential sales opportunity explain the move, while the amended shelf registration creates issuance risk into strength.
