First Phosphate Corp. ( (TSE:PHOS) ) has provided an update.

Denmark’s export credit agency EIFO has issued a non-binding letter of intent to provide a guarantee of up to EUR 170 million to support equipment and services purchases for First Phosphate’s planned igneous phosphate mine in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, Québec. Backed by the Danish state and considered AAA quality, the EIFO guarantee would be offered to one or more banks financing the project on a pro rata, pari passu basis with other senior lenders, subject to standard credit approvals and due diligence on environmental, social and other project matters.

The prospective guarantee underscores growing international financing interest in First Phosphate’s North American phosphate assets, which are positioned as a strategic source of high-purity material for lithium iron phosphate battery supply chains. If finalized, the support could materially de-risk project funding and bolster the company’s efforts to reshore critical battery materials production, potentially strengthening its competitive standing in the emerging LFP segment.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:PHOS) stock is a Buy with a C$1.59 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on First Phosphate Corp. stock, see the TSE:PHOS Stock Forecast page.
