Woodlawn advanced through commissioning during the period, delivering record throughput and strong improvements in recoveries as the operation moved into higher-grade mining areas. With nameplate capacity expected to be achieved in the 2026 March Quarter and initial bulk concentrate shipments already completed, the project is now positioned to enter steady-state production.

Sulphur Springs Project – is a high-grade copper-zinc development project that has commenced pre-development activities.

The project is located 144 km to the southeast of Port Hedland and includes the Sulphur Springs and Kangaroo Caves deposits together with tenements along the 27km Panorama Trend that contains six advanced targets that have returned minerlaised intersections of zinc and copper. The Updated Definitive Feasibility Study released in October confirmed a substantial uplift in project value with a Pre-Tax NPV8% of A$921 million.

Pioneer Dome - is a highly prospective, multi-commodity project with Lithium, caesium and beryllium deposits located approximately 130 km south of Kalgoorlie and 270 km north of the port of Esperance.

1. Reporting Entity

This Half-Year Report covers Develop and its subsidiaries. The Company is a public listed Company domiciled in Australia.

The Company’s registered office is at 234 Railway Parade, West Leederville, Western Australia.

The Group is a for-profit entity involved in the exploration and development of base metals and mining services.

Summary of Material Accounting Policy Information

a) Statement of Compliance

The half-year financial report is a general-purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 ‘ Interim Financial Reporting’ . Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 ‘ Interim Financial Reporting’ . The halfyear report does not include notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report and should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual report.

b) Basis of Preparation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain non-current assets and financial instruments that are measured at revalued amounts or fair values. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. All amounts are presented in Australian dollars, unless others noted.

The interim report does not include all the notes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, this report should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the adoption of new and amended accounting standards as set out below.

c) Going Concern

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

d) New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

e) Key Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the financial report requires judgement and the use of estimates and assumptions in applying the Group's accounting policies, which affect amounts reported for assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions. The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the half-year financial report, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty, are the same as those applied in the most recent annual financial report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Develop Global Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Develop Global Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the halfyear ended on that date, material accounting policy information and other explanatory information, and the directors’ declaration.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of the Group does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • i. Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and of its financial performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • ii. Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to the audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

Responsibility of the directors for the financial report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

BDO Audit Pty Ltd ABN 33 134 022 870 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms.

Auditor’s responsibility for the review of the financial report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and its financial performance for the half-year ended on that date and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
