FISCALIA NACIONAL ECONOMICA REFERS TO PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT BETWEEN SQM AND CODELCO


Santiago, Chile, April 24, 2025 – Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (“SQM” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SQM; Santiago Stock Exchange: SQM-A, SQM-B) informs that on the evening of April 23, 2025, the Chilean Antitrust Authority (in Chile named Fiscalia Nacional Económica or “FNE”) approved Phase 1 of the public-private partnership agreement between Codelco and SQM, subject to compliance with certain mitigation measures.

The FNE's investigation focused on the production and marketing of lithium. In this context, the FNE ruled out various risks; however, it warned that the implementation of the Partnership would entail the creation of a new structural link between current and future players in the lithium industry. In response, measures standard for this type of transaction were agreed upon, such as information management protocols and the configuration of the Partnership's corporate governance.

This approval is a very important step for the future implementation of the Partnership and adds to those already issued by the antitrust authorities of Brazil, South Korea, Japan, Saudi Arabia, and the European Union.

The FNE's report and approval resolution, along with the mitigation measures, will be available on the FNE and Company websites once the respective public versions have been prepared.
