About TMC the metals company

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

TMC the metals company is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and is incorporated in British Columbia, Canada. Its shares trade on Nasdaq under the ticker TMC. The SEC classifies its business as metal mining. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported a net loss of $319.8m. At that date it held total assets of $181.6m and shareholders' equity of −$33.4m.

In its own words

We are a deep seabed minerals developer focused on the collection, processing and refining of polymetallic nodules found on the seafloor in international waters of the Clarion Clipperton Zone (“CCZ”), approximately 1,500 miles (or 2,400 kilometers) south-west of San Diego, California. The CCZ is a geological submarine fracture zone of abyssal plains and other formations in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, with a length of around 7,240 kilometers (4,500 miles) that spans approximately 4,500,000 square kilometers (1,737,000 square miles). Polymetallic nodules are discrete rocks that sit unattached to the seafloor, occur in significant quantities in the CCZ and have high concentrations of nickel, copper, cobalt and manganese, alongside meaningful concentrations of rare earth elements (REE) in a single rock.

Our mission is to build a carefully managed, shared stock of metal (a “metal commons”) that can be used, recovered and reused for generations to come. We believe significant quantities of newly mined metal are required because existing metal stocks are insufficient to meet rapidly rising demand.
