Judd Merrill on recent calls
“I have a few prepared remarks, and then we'll move on through the slide deck here. The first quarter of 2026 reflects a continuation of the transformation we drove in 2025, but more importantly, it marks the beginning of execution at scale.”
“I have a few remarks, and then we'll turn it over to Corrado, but I just want to look at the company dashboard here. From a CFO's perspective, 2025 was really a transformational year for Comstock.”
“This was a transformative quarter for Comstock. We strengthened our balance sheet, funded our growth plans, and positioned the company for the next phase of commercialization.”
“First, this being my last call as the CFO of the company, I want to take a moment to thank the shareholders, stakeholders, my colleagues, the Board and Steve for the trust and support in my role here over the last 6.5 years.”
“Let me start my comments with our balance sheet. We ended the quarter with total cash of approximately $3 million. One of the more noticeable changes to the balance sheet and the statement of stockholders' equity is the effect of the reverse stock split.”
