In spite of continued disruption by the COVID pandemic to global markets, coupled with bad weather impacting and restricting concrete pouring on current projects in a number of US States:

  • 28% increase in period-on-period total US and Indian revenue for first 6 months (H1) of FY22;

  • 68% increase in total US Revenue in H1 of FY 22 (US$1,196,906 ) to FY21 (US$482,725);

  • US$1,151,000 (A$1,580,679) worth of EdenCrete® sales in GDOT projects pipeline;

  • Developed low CO2 , low cost, high fly-ash EdenCrete® Pz concrete mixes for US market;

  • India - Second EdenCrete®Pz Order received from Godrej for approx. A$92,000;

  • Indonesian sales agent appointed after half-year for EdenCrete® following successful trials;

  • 80% increase in total OptiBlend® revenue in H1 of FY 22 compared with H1 of FY21; and

Market Overview

There has been a significant rise over the past 6 months in:

  • the total number of US EdenCrete® projects that are underway or being planned;

  • the number of US companies and State DOTs using, trialling or discussing EdenCrete®;

  • the size and wide range of US projects and applications (including for both infrastructure projects and commercial projects) where EdenCrete® is being used or likely to be used; and

  • the number of US States where these projects are to be carried out.

Eden has successfully developed low CO2, low cost, high fly ash concrete mixes for US market using EdenCrete® Pz (see below for more details) which is generating significant interest.

  • Expanding Hythane® rollout in India opens opportunities for Eden India .

COVID-19, Omicron and Bad Weather - Impact on Sales

During the six months, the spread around the world of Omicron impacted many businesses including EdenCrete® and OptiBlend® sales in USA and India.

Further extended adverse weather conditions in Georgia delayed many GDOT projects, significantly reducing budgeted US EdenCrete® sales for the six months, as evidenced by the A$1,580,679 of EdenCrete® required for GDOT projects that are now in the pipeline and for which contracts are already awarded.

Interim Financial Report 2021

Market Overview (Continued)

Positive review of the performance of EdenCrete® concrete at Atlantic Transfer Station after 8 months use; EdenCrete® being considered for at least 1 new project.

Shotcrete customers in 5 States (Colorado, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee) and trials with potential customers in 2 new States (Mississippi and Texas).

Further repair project planned for Denver International Airport.

Several Eden staff who attended the recent World of Concrete convention in the US reported a very high level of serious interest in the possible use of EdenCrete® products across all concrete applications.

Market interest in EdenCrete® is growing rapidly in India, Australia and Indonesia:

  • In India, a huge market for EdenCrete® products, a second order for approx. $92,000 of EdenCrete®Pz from Godrej Construction has been despatched. Further Indian orders over the next 12 months are expected as Godrej rolls out the range of concrete mixes in four Indian cities.

  • In Australia, a number of major trials are underway for commercial and infrastructure projects.

The OptiBlend® dual fuel system is generating growing interest and demand in India and USA.

Restrictions in a number of Indian States imposed on running diesel generators solely on diesel fuel led to two diesel generator manufacturers as well as other diesel generator distributors exploring with Eden India the possibility of selling Eden’s OptiBlend® kits in conjunction with their diesel generators. This development could significantly increase OptiBlend® sales over the next 1224 months.

Ongoing EdenPlast® trials by a plastics company in Japan over the next few months, if successful, are anticipated to result in the first commercial sales of Eden Plast®.

After a long period when there was little market interest in hydrogen and Hythane®, Eden is presently in separate discussions with a significant Indian company and a significant European company in relation to the separate possible collaborations using Eden’s hydrogen and Hythane® technologies.

After a significant impact on sales from COVID-19 over the past 2 years, Eden is confident of a significant increase in the number of projects and volume of sales across its product range, not only in the USA but around the world, during the remainder of 2022 and beyond.

  • In Indonesia, also a very large potential market, the recent appointment of an Indonesian sales agent following successful trials with 2 large concrete companies, should generate early sales.

Interim Financial Report 2021

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Low CO2, low cost, high fly ash concrete mixes developed for US Market with EdenCrete® Pz

Eden US has recently completed the development, at its Colorado laboratory, of a range of low-CO2 , high- fly ash content concrete mixes that incorporate either EdenCrete® Pz or Pz7. This programme, designed to help our customers optimize the dosage of our EdenCrete® products in their mix designs for cost-efficient strength gain optimization, has been very successful.

With a range of concrete mixes, made using several different brands and types of cements, and compared with the same mixes but with either 20% or 40% fly ash being substituted for an equivalent quantity of cement powder and with a low dosage of EdenCrete® Pz, highly material total cost savings of up to US$6 per cubic yard of concrete have been achieved, without any reduction in the strength of the concrete.

This project has attracted considerable interest, and Eden has discussions underway or planned with a wide range of potential customers in many states of the US, including large ready mix concrete suppliers. When these cost savings are coupled with the materially reduced Greenhouse Gas footprint delivered benefit as a result of using the far lower CO2 fly ash, Eden US anticipates that this programme alone will deliver very significant market growth and product sales over the coming years.

Waste transfer stations

The first ever waste transfer station project using EdenCrete® in the concrete tipping slab that is exposed to extreme wear, was built in Savannah, Georgia for Atlantic Waste Services earlier this year (see Eden’s ASX announcement of 12 February 2021).

Shotcrete Market Growth

There has been a very positive impact from the recently completed shotcrete marketing video. During the period, following the release of Eden’s new shotcrete promotional video in June 2021, new shotcrete customers in 4 US States - North Carolina, Tennessee, Mississippi and Georgia – were added to the already existing shotcrete customer base that now spreads across 5 States (Colorado, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennessee) and trials with new potential customers planned in two new States being Mississippi and Texas.

Airports - Further EdenCrete® project planned for Denver International Airport.

Following earlier success in a number of repair projects in the concrete apron outside the United Airlines maintenance hangar (see Eden’s ASX announcement 7 September 2021) Eden has been advised that a further repair project that will include the use of EdenCrete® is scheduled for the coming months.

Eden is presently opening discussion with other US agencies in relation to potentially undertaking trials and/ or projects at other US airports.

Marketing video on more durable, longer lasting EdenCrete® concrete planned.

Following the success with the shotcrete marketing video during the six months, Eden is planning a further EdenCrete® marketing video focusing on the significant durability benefits delivered by EdenCrete® to concrete, resulting in stronger, longer lasting, more durable, lower cost concrete.

The order for this project came after a review of the increased abrasion resistance and reduced permeability that EdenCrete® delivers to concrete. The dosage rate used was 4 gallons/cubic yard of concrete, and this still delivered a very cost-effective alternative to a more expensive, epoxy coating treatment that it replaced and which had previously been applied to concrete tipping slabs in other waste transfer stations.

After 8 months of use under very harsh, acidic and abrasive conditions, a positive review of the performance of the EdenCrete® enhanced concrete at Atlantic Waste Transfer Station has resulted in EdenCrete® now being considered for inclusion in similar concrete for at least one proposed new transfer station project.

Florida DOT

During the six months, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) added both EdenCrete® and EdenCrete®Pz to its list of approved admixtures.

EdenCrete® is now approved for DOT use in 22 States (EdenCrete®Pz in 17 States), being:

Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia; and (see Figure 1).

These 22 States represent approximately:

  • 55% of the total US population;

  • 75,480 bridges* that are structurally deficient or functionally obsolete;

  • 52% of the total number of such bridges in the USA*; and

  • 55% of the total US land area.

With its significantly expanding US sales footprint, the ongoing DOT EdenCrete® trials (particularly for bridges) in various States, plus the approvals for DOT use in 22 States, EdenCrete® is very well placed to participate in the expected significant market growth from an additional US$110 million under the recently announced US Federal infrastructure programme.

This Federal funding is in addition to US$905 million of US Federal funding awarded to 24 projects in July 2021 under the Infrastructure for Rebuilding America programme.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

INTERNATIONAL EDENCRETE® MARKET

India - Godrej Construction – Second Order - A$92,000

Eden Innovations (India) Pvt Limited, the wholly owned subsidiary of Eden Innovations Ltd received its second purchase order from Godrej Construction, the construction division of Godrej & Boyce Manufacturing Co. Ltd (“Godrej”), to supply it with approximately A$92,000 worth of EdenCrete®Pz for use in its ready-mix concrete operation in several cities (including Mumbai and Pune) in the state of Maharashtra. The first order was received in August 2020.

This second order from Godrej Construction, which is six times larger, followed the successful completion of a significant, 12 months testing and development programme conducted by Godrej Construction using standard concrete mixes from several cities where it operates, that, with the addition of only modest dosages of EdenCrete® Pz, were able to incorporate far higher percentages of fly ash in place of ordinary Portland cement.

As a result, these new concrete mixes were able to deliver stronger, cheaper concrete with far lower CO2 footprints than had been possible without the addition of EdenCrete®Pz.

This second Godrej Construction order is a highly significant development in the commercialization of EdenCrete® products because:

  • Not only is it a significant order but it is the first repeat order from outside the USA to be received for any EdenCrete® product;

  • The successful testing and development programme undertaken by Godrej Construction occurred during a year when India was greatly impacted by several major challenges including COVID 19 lockdown restrictions and opens the way for Godrej to roll these mixes out in several fast-growing cities in Maharashtra with a combined population of over 50 million people;

  • India is estimated to currently produce around 150 million tonnes of fly ash per year and this is estimated to rise to around 500 million tonnes p.a. within the next 5-10 years as scheduled new coal fired power plants come on line;

  • India has a population of nearly 1.3 billion people, of whom approximately 800 million live in rural areas;

  • India announced in 2019 a US$1.2 trillion infrastructure programme, that along with the rapidly increasing urbanization, will require very large quantities of concrete; and

concrete mixes made with less Indian cement and a far higher percentage of Indian fly ash, has led to a number of new concrete mixes, covering a range of performance standards, being developed that all deliver stronger and cheaper concrete, and with each mix having a far lower CO2 footprint than had previously been possible.

A major rollout of EdenCrete® products, and in particular EdenCrete® Pz, across India is expected over the coming years, potentially opening the largest EdenCrete® market in the world. This order had been delayed by both the shortage of shipping containers and restricted shipping options, but the product has now left Colorado, is expected to arrive in India by late March/ early April 2022.

Australia – Edencrete® Marketing Progress

Parchem Construction Supplies Pty Ltd, the EdenCrete® products distributor in Australian and New Zealand, has been making progress in the marketing of the EdenCrete® range in both Australia and New Zealand, and a number of trials with potentially significant customers have been undertaken.

One such trial was undertaken in mid-December 2021, at a sugar mill in North Queensland. Sugar, similar to chlorides, is highly corrosive to concrete. Due to the corrosive environment of this operation, ongoing maintenance, repair and sometimes replacement, is constantly required on the concrete slabs. EdenCrete® was identified to be used in this repair trial, for its strength and durability, with an objective of extending the service life of the repaired slab. Further trials are being planned for 2022. The slabs will be monitored over time to determine their durability in this harsh environment.

Indonesia – Sales Agent Appointed After Successful Trials Of High Fly Ash Concrete

Following successful trials over the past six months of EdenCrete® Pz in various low CO2, low cost, highfly ash concrete mixes with an Indonesian concrete company that was introduced by Ai Building Indonesia (“Ai Building”), since the end of the Quarter, Ai Building has been appointed as a commission sales agent for the EdenCrete® range of products for Indonesia.

Indonesia, like India, is a major cement manufacturing country with a large concrete industry, which also has many coal -fired power stations and a significant ongoing supply of fly ash. Similarly, to India, Indonesia is expected to develop into a major market for EdenCrete® products, and in particular for EdenCrete® Pz for use in low CO2, low cost, high fly ash concrete mixes.

INDIAN OPTIBLEND® MARKET

Indian OptiBlend® Sales

◊ H1 FY 22 - INR 21,432,143 (A$392,939)

The Indian OptiBlend® activities for the six months included the sale to Colgate Palmolive (India) Ltd of five OptiBlend® dual fuel systems worth INR 6.418 million (A$117,512).

The Indian OptiBlend® market remains strong, in spite of major disruptions as a result of the steep increase in COVID-19 cases resulting from the rapid spread of the Omicron variant across India.

Interest in India for OptiBlend® dual fuel systems is continuing to increase, with discussions now underway with two diesel genset manufacturers, a number of other possible distributors and a wide range of possible commercial, industrial and residential customers, including a hotel chain. Eden India anticipates its OptiBlend® sales over the next 6-12 months should continue at, or above, the current level achieved during the half year.

During the six-months, Eden India’s engineers also completed the installation in Nigeria of three OptiBlend® dual fuel systems that Eden India had earlier sold to a Nigerian company.

US OPTIBLEND® MARKET

US OptiBlend® Sales

◊ H1 FY22 - US $639,564 (A$870,718)

The total US OptiBlend® sales for the first half of FY 2022 (i.e., H1 of FY22) of A$870,718 compared with A$116,000 for H1 of FY21, still delivered an increase of 651% on a period-on-period basis.

As previously reported, following the extended power crisis in Texas during the winter in early 2021, there was a significant upturn during 2021 in interest in Eden’s OptiBlend® dual fuel system, which extends the operating time of back-up diesel powered generators up to 70% , by substituting cheaper natural gas, for up to 70% of the diesel fuel.

That increased interest has continued and the new appointments in September 2021 of two specialist sales companies as OptiBlend® sales representatives (Power Source Midwest Inc and Davidson Sales Company) that between them operate in 17 US states, have greatly extended Eden’s OptiBlend® sales capacity.

Continued strong interest exists in the US market interest, driven by both the increasing number, and intensity, of natural disasters, and the lower price of natural gas compared with diesel fuel.

As a result, many US institutions and companies are re-assessing their back-up power generating capacity. Apart from natural gas being cheaper and producing far lower levels of Greenhouse Gas emissions, operating on mixtures of as low as 30% diesel fuel and up to 70% natural gas, it also extends the back-up power generating capability that is delivered by the on-site stored diesel fuel (supplemented by the natural gas) by up to 230%, providing a far longer period of protection against the consequences of a major grid failure and an extended power outage.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

EDENPLAST®

During the last quarter, the Japanese plastics company that has been trialling EdenPlast® over the past 12 months, conducted further trials. An additional master batch of EdenPlast® CNT-enriched polymers is currently being prepared for further testing in Japan.

Eden is hopeful that a positive outcome from the Japanese trials will lead to an initial sale and the establishment of a strong commercial EdenPlast® market.

HYDROGEN AND HYTHANE®

Interest in Eden’s Hydrogen / Hythane® products and technologies

Hydrogen – European interest

During the six-months, further discussions took place with a European chemical company with which Eden, in 2019, conducted joint laboratory trials, in relation to a possible collaboration involving the use of Eden’s proprietary pyrolysis process for production of both turquoise hydrogen and carbon nanotubes. These recent discussions are ongoing.

In addition to its existing EdenCrete® products, Eden’s long-term strategic plan is to develop global markets for a range of other products (including EdenPlast®) that will collectively use sufficient CNT, to support the development of a commercial scale, turquoise hydrogen programme based upon Eden’s efficient, low cost, patented, commercialised and proprietary methane pyrolysis process.

Hythane® (hydrogen-enriched natural gas) – Emerging Interest in India®

India, which adopted a Hydrogen Roadmap in 2006 that included Hythane® (hydrogen-enriched natural gas) as a transitional fuel, is expanding the planned use of Hythane® beyond the current initial project that is underway and which involves converting 7,000 natural gas buses in Delhi to operate on Hythane®.

A new Hythane® bus project in the Mumbai area is being planned and Eden India has been approached in relation to possibly supplying Eden’s proprietary blending system to blend the hydrogen and natural gas. Eden’s blender was successfully installed, and operated for 11 years until the station was closed, in the first Indian Hythane® station that Eden built near the Delhi Airport for Indian Oil in 2009.

CORPORATE

Eden completed a placement raising A$2.607 million (before costs), being the placement of the September 2021 rights issue shortfall (A$1.507 million) and the balance (A$1.1 million) from the directors’ 15% placement capacity. The placement shares were issued at $0.022 per placement shares with one (1) free EDEO option exercisable at 5 cents ($0.05) and expiring on 7 October 2024 for every two (2) new placement shares subscribed.

Eden is currently exploring a range of financing options including reviewing the possibility of undertaking a capital raising by way of an equity placement to one or more strategic cornerstone investors

Additionally, it is understood that the possibility of adding hydrogen into natural gas pipelines in India is also being considered as a means of both reducing air pollution and Greenhouse Gas emissions. Eden India is planning to manufacture in India all its future blender Hythane® requirements. Interestingly, a similar hydrogen-enriched natural gas project is also reportedly being planned in the north east of the USA.

Interim Financial Report 2021

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PREPARATION

The half-year consolidated financial statements are a general-purpose financial report prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134: Interim Financial Reporting, Australian Accounting Interpretations and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting.

It is recommended that this financial report be read in conjunction with the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021 and any public announcements made by Eden Innovations Ltd during the half-year in accordance with continuous disclosure requirements arising under the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules. The half-year report does not include full disclosures of the type normally included in an annual financial report.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

The Group has reported a net loss for the period of $2,562,962 (2020: $2,840,213) and a cash outflow from operating activities of $2,309,683 (2020: $2,946,940). The directors are confident that the Group, subject to being able to raise further capital, will be able to continue its operations as a going concern.

Without such capital, the net loss for the period and the cash outflow from operating activities during the period indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuing applicability of the going concern basis of accounting is dependent upon the Group’s ability to source additional finance. Unless additional finance is received the Group may need to realise assets and settle liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts which could differ from the amounts at which they are stated in these financial statements.

Accounting Policies

The accounting policies have been consistently applied by the entities in the consolidated group and are consistent with those in the June 2021 financial report except for the adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards.

New and amended standards adopted by the Group

The Group has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (the AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current half-year. The new and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations do not have any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts recognised in the Group’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the members of Eden Innovations Limited

Report on the Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Eden Innovations Limited (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a summary of significant accounting policies 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:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2021 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) 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 & Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our 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 in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s review report.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report, which indicates that the Company incurred a net loss of $2,562,962 and cash outflows from operating activities of $2,309,683 during the half year ended 31 December 2021. As stated in Note 1, these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

ASX Code: EDE

Eden Innovations Limited and Controlled Entities ABN 58 109 200 900

Interim Financial Report 2021

Responsibility of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Group 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.

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 2021 and its performance for the halfyear 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.
