Corporate Overview

During Q1 2013, First Uranium had 238,434,935 Units trading on the NEX (FIU.H). The
Corporation also has a secondary listing on the JSE Limited and the Units trade under
the symbol FUU. Each Unit is currently comprised of 77.3 Class A Special Shares and 1
Class B Common Shares.

The Corporation is considering the most efficient and orderly way in which to distribute
to the shareholders all remaining property of the Corporation (after payment of the
Corporation’s remaining creditors), as well as investigating alternatives, which may
include the prospect for a business combination or sale of the Corporation. If no viable
alternatives are available to the Corporation, the Corporation may then proceed to be
wound up and dissolved. However, the Board has not made any decisions with respect
to the windup and dissolution at this time.
Summary of Financial Results

The Corporation reported a profit from its continuing operations of $0.03 million in Q1
2014 (Q1 2013: loss of $10.3 million).

Prior to the disposal of its discontinued operations in Q2 2013, the Corporation
reported profits from its discontinued operations of $34.4 million in Q1 2013,
comprised of $31.1 million from Mine Waste Solutions and $3.3 million from the
Ezulwini Mine. The primary driver for the profit in Q1 2013 was the derivative income
related to the gold stream transactions compared to the derivative expense recognized
in previous reporting periods.

During Q1 2014, the Corporation utilized $0.5 million of its remaining cash on ongoing
corporate expenses. During Q1 2013, the Corporation (including its discontinued
operations) generated $4.1 million cash from its operations and utilized $3.6 million on
capital projects and other investing activities related to its discontinued operations.

As at June 30, 2013, the Corporation’s current assets were $4.6 million (March 31,
2013: $4.6 million) and its current liabilities amounted to $1.3 million (March 31, 2013:
$1.3 million), consisting of a $1.0 million tax payable provision and $0.4 million of trade
and other payables.
