When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “PCT” and the “Company” mean PureCycle Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively. We are a Florida-based corporation focused on commercializing a patented dissolution recycling technology for polypropylene that physically separates the polymer from other plastics, colors, odors and impurities (the “Technology”). The Technology was originally developed by P&G and is designed to restore recycled polypropylene waste into like-new resin, called PureFive® resin. Our PureFive® resin has similar properties and applicability for reuse as virgin polypropylene. We have a global license for the Technology from P&G, which was amended during 2025 to permanently waive the possible clawback of our exclusivity for plants located in North America. The amendment also extends the time that our plants must begin construction and commence sales in other regions to avoid a clawback of the exclusivity under the license agreement.
