DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Your Directors submit the financial report of the Company for the period ended 30 June 2025.
OPERATIONS
Exultant Mining Limited (Exultant or Company) (formerly Exultant Mining Pty Ltd) was incorporated in Western Australia on 31 January 2025 as a proprietary company limited by shares. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring, exploring and developing mineral resource projects in Australia and overseas.
Since incorporation, the Company has:
-
undertaken pre-listing activities, including raising seed capital; and
-
identified the Black Hammer Project (comprising exploration licence EL9332), the Peak View Project (comprising exploration licences EL8931 and EL9411) and the Deep Dykes Project (comprising of exploration licenses E29/1155, E29/1156 and E29/1154) (together, the Projects) pursuant to three acquisition agreements (the Acquisition Agreements) as well as applied for additional tenements (being Tuglow ELA6915 (part of Black Hammer) and Mt Hope E30/590 (part of Deep Dykes)) as detailed below.
The tenements comprising the Black Hammer Project and the Peak View Project are located in New South Wales and are considered prospective for copper, zinc, silver, gold and nickel. The tenements comprising the Deep Dykes Project are located in Western Australia and are considered prospective for gold and lithium.
Completion of settlement under each of the Acquisition Agreements is conditional on (amongst other things) Exultant receiving conditional approval in writing from the ASX to admit Exultant to the official list of ASX.
The Company now wishes to proceed to complete settlement of the Acquisition Agreements and pursue admission to the official list of ASX.
Black Hammer Project
The Black Hammer Project is comprised of one exploration licence of 60 units (174 km2) located approximately 130kms west of Sydney. The licence straddles the top of the Great Dividing Range with elevations between 1,000m and 1,350m. The area is used for grazing and pine plantation forestry.
Peak View Project
The Peak View Project is comprised of two exploration licenses EL9411 (32 units) and EL8931 (10 units) located approximately 32kms north-east of Cooma in New South Wales. The project has a comprehensive historic database including extensive soil geochemistry and drilling.
Deep Dykes Project
The Deep Dykes Project is comprised of three exploration licences E29/1155, E29/1156, E29/1154 located ~100kms north west of Menzies in Western Australia. The area is considered highly prospective for gold and lithium with several discoveries having been made in the region.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATION
The Company is subject to significant environmental and monitoring requirements in respect of its natural resources exploration activities. The Directors are not aware of any significant breaches of these requirements during the period. The Company’s principal activities are exploration for gold and metals.
MATERIAL BUSINESS RISKS
The Company exploration and evaluation operations will be subject to the normal risks of mineral exploration. The material business risks that may affect the Company are summarised below.
| Risk | Summary |
|---|---|
| Limited history | The Company was incorporated on 31 January 2025 and therefore has limited operational history and historical financial performance. The prospects of the Company must be considered in light of the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stages of their development, particularly in the mineral exploration sector, which has a high level of inherent risk and uncertainty. No assurance can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viabilitythrough the exploration and development of the Projects. |
| Exploration and development risks |
Mineral exploration, development and mining activities are high-risk undertakings that may be impeded by circumstances and factors beyond the control of the Company. There can be no assurance that exploration on the Company’s tenements, or any other mineral properties that may be acquired in the future, will result in the discovery of an economic ore deposit. Even if an apparently viable deposit is identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economicallyexploited. |
| Exploration costs | The exploration costs of the Company are based on certain assumptions with respect to the method and timing of exploration. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, the actual costs may materially differ from these estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the cost estimates and the underlying assumptions will be realised in practice, which may materially and adverselyaffect the Company’s viability. |
| Tenements | Interests in all tenements in Australia are governed by the respective State and Territory legislation and are evidenced by the granting of licences or leases. Each licence or lease is for a specific term and carries with it annual expenditure and reporting commitments, as well as other conditions requiring compliance. Consequently, the Company could lose title to, or its interest in, tenements if licence conditions are not met or if insufficient funds are available to meet expenditure commitments. The maintaining of exploration licences, obtaining renewals, or getting additional exploration or mining licences granted, often depends on the Company being successful in obtaining the required statutory approvals for its proposed activities and that the licences, concessions, leases, permits or consents it holds will be renewed as and when required. There is no assurance that such renewals will be given as a matter of course and there is no assurance that new conditions (such as increased expenditure and work commitments) will not be imposed in connection with any such renewals. The imposition of new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or the performance of the Company. |
| Environmental risks | Mineral exploration and development activities have inherent risks and liabilities associated with safetyand damage to the environment,and the disposal of |

waste products. The occurrence of any such safety or environmental incident could delay exploration programs. Events such as unpredictable rainfall or bushfires, may impact on the Company’s ongoing compliance with environmental legislation, regulations and licences. Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean-up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous operations or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations. As an exploration and development company, the Company does not operate on Future capital a cashflow positive basis and is reliant on raising funds from investors in order to requirements continue to fund its operations and execute on its exploration and development strategy. The funds to be raised under the IPO are considered sufficient to meet the immediate objectives of the Company. However, the Company’s capital requirements depend on numerous factors and the Company will require additional debt or equity financing in the future to maintain or grow its business in addition to funds raised under the IPO. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure additional capital from debt or equity financing on favourable terms or at all. The Company may also seek to raise funds through earn-in and joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or other means. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital if and when required, this could delay, suspend or reduce the scope of the Company’s business operations (including scaling back exploration and development programs) and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating and financial performance. Any additional equity financing may result in dilution for some or all shareholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants which limit operations and business strategy.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The principal activity of the entity during the financial period was acquiring a portfolio of exploration properties in New South Wales and Western Australia through the intention of an initial public offer prospectus.

REMUNERATION REPORT
Introduction
The Directors present the Remuneration Report for the Company for the period ended 30 June 2025. This Remuneration Report forms part of the Directors’ Report in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its regulations. For the purposes of this report, Key Management Personnel ( KMP ) of the Company are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company, directly or indirectly, including any director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Parent Entity.
Remuneration Policy
The Company’s remuneration policy has been designed to align Director and Executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Company’s financial results. The Board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best Executives and Directors to run and manage the Company, as well as create goal congruence between Directors, Executives and shareholders. The Board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and senior Executives of the Company is as follows:
-
The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the Executive Directors and other senior Executives, was developed by the Board.
-
All Executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation and are entitled to the issue of share options.
-
Incentive paid in the form of share options are intended to align the interests of Directors and the Company with those of the shareholders.
The performance of Executives is measured against criteria agreed annually with each Executive and is based predominantly on the forecast growth of the Company’s shareholders’ value. The Board may, however, exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options, and can recommend changes to the committee’s recommendations. Any changes must be justified by reference to measurable performance criteria. The policy is designed to attract the highest calibre of Executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth.
Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.
All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed, or capitalised to exploration expenditure if appropriate. Options, if given to Directors and Executives in lieu of remuneration, are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology.
The Board policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for time, commitment and responsibilities. The remuneration committee determines payments to the Non-Executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to NonExecutive Directors has been set at $500,000pa. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and are able to participate in the employee securities incentive plan.
Remuneration Report Approval at FY2025 AGM
The remuneration report for the period ended 30 June 2025 will be put to shareholders for approval at the Company’s AGM which will be held in November 2025.

INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE OF OFFICERS
The Company has agreed to indemnify all of the Directors of the Company for any liabilities to another person (other than the Company or related body corporate) that may arise from their position as Directors of the Company and its controlled entities, except where the liability arises out of conduct involving a lack of good faith.
PROCEEDINGS ON BEHALF OF THE COMPANY
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or part of those proceedings. No proceedings have been brought or intervened in on behalf of the Company with leave of the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 .
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Board has not set measurable gender diversity objectives for the 2025 financial period because the Board considered the application of a measurable gender diversity objective requiring a specified proportion of women on the Board and in senior executive roles would, given the small size of the Company and the Board, unduly limit the Company from applying the Diversity Policy as a whole and the Company’s policy of appointing based on skills and merit. A performance evaluation of the Board and individual Directors was not undertaken during the period due to the current size of the Board and the infancy of the Company.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
==> picture [35 x 22] intentionally omitted <==
1. Corporate information
This annual report covers Exultant Mining Limited (the “Company”) (formerly Exultant Mining Pty Ltd), a company incorporated in Australia on 31 January 2025 for the period ended 30 June 2025. The presentation currency of the Company is Australian Dollars ( $ ). A description of the Company’s operations is included in the review and results of operations in the Directors’ Report. The Directors’ Report is not part of the financial statements. The Company is a for-profit entity and limited by shares incorporated in Australia. The financial statements were authorised for issue on 25 September 2025 by the Directors of the Company. The Directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements. The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.
2. Material accounting policies
a. Basis of preparation
This general-purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, including Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001 . Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes of the Company comply with International Financial Reporting Standards ( IFRS ). Exultant Mining Limited is a for-profit entity for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars and have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
b. Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company incurred a loss for the period of $76,261 (2024: $Nil) and net cash outflows from operating activities of $47,895 (2024: $Nil). As at 30 June 2025, the Company had a working capital of $4,380 (2024: $Nil). The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon the ability of the Company to secure funds by raising capital from investors and managing cash flow in line with available funds. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Company will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12 months period from the date of signing this financial report. Included in this cash flow forecast is $5,000,000 via an Initial Public Offering on the Australian Securities Exchange in 2025. Subsequent to period end, the Company raised $320,000 in funds from the issue of seed shares. Based on the cash flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

2. Material accounting policies (continued)
c. Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification. An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
d. Comparatives
When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial period.
e. Changes in accounting policies
During the period the Company made no change to its accounting policies.
f. Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies and estimate uncertainty
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results. Information about significant judgements, estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expense is provided below.
i. Environmental issues
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation, and the Directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Company’s development and its current environmental impact the Directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate.
ii. Taxation
Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, are based on the best estimates of Directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the Company as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the Directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents that Directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office.
iii. Exploration and evaluation expenditure
The application of the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure requires judgement in determining whether it is likely that future economic benefits are likely either from future exploitation or sale or where activities have not reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves.

2. Material accounting policies (continued)
iv. Share-based payment transactions
The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black-Scholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity.
g. Accounting Standards that are mandatorily effective for the current reporting period
The Company has adopted all of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are relevant to its operations and effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 July 2024. The Directors have determined that there is no material impact of the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on the Company and, therefore, no material change is necessary to Company accounting policies.
h. Standards and Interpretations in issue not yet adopted
At the date of authorisation of the financial statements, the Company has not applied the new and revised Australian Accounting Standards, Interpretations and amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective. Based on a preliminary review of the standards and amendments, the Directors do not anticipate a material change to the Company’s accounting policies, however further analysis will be performed when the relevant standards are effective.

3. Income tax benefit / (expense) (continued)
Accounting policy
Income tax
Current tax is calculated by reference to the amount of income taxes payable or recoverable in respect of the taxable profit or tax loss for the period. It is calculated using tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. Current tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable). Deferred tax is accounted for using the comprehensive balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax base of those items. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that sufficient taxable amounts will be available against which deductible temporary differences or unused tax losses and tax offsets can be utilised. However, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary differences giving rise to them arise from the initial recognition of assets and liabilities (other than as a result of a business combination) which affects neither taxable income nor accounting profit. Furthermore, a deferred tax liability is not recognised in relation to taxable temporary differences arising from goodwill. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates and joint ventures except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with these investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period(s) when the asset and liability giving rise to them are realised or settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Parent Entity/Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Current and deferred tax is recognised as an expense or income in the statement of comprehensive income, except when it relates to items credited or debited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also recognised directly in equity, or where it arises from the initial accounting for a business combination, in which case it is taken into account in the determination of goodwill or excess.
Goods and services and sales tax
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of Goods and Services Tax (GST) except:
- Where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority, it is recognised as part of the cost of the asset or as part of an item of expense; or
For receivables and payables which are recognised inclusive of GST.
The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables. Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are presented as operating cash flows included in receipts from customers or payments to suppliers. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO.

4. Earnings per share
Loss used for basic and diluted loss per share are loss after tax of $76,261 (2024: loss after tax of $Nil). The weighted average number of ordinary shares used as the denominator in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share is 1,625,683 ordinary shares (2024: Nil ordinary shares).

Accounting policy
Exploration and evaluation costs, including feasibility study expenditure, are expensed in the period they are incurred apart from acquisition costs to acquire mineral tenements which are capitalised on an area of interest basis. Acquisition costs include the associated transaction costs and the estimated rehabilitation liability recognised upon the acquisition of mineral tenements. Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the right of tenure of the area of interest is current, and they are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest or alternatively by its sale, or, where exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. Once a development decision has been made all past exploration and evaluation expenditure in respect of an area of interest has been capitalised is transferred to mine properties where it is amortised over the life of the area of interest to which it relates on a unit-of-production basis.

==> picture [35 x 22] intentionally omitted <==
8. Exploration and evaluation expenditure (continued)
No amortisation is changed during the exploration and evaluation phase. Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when an indicator of impairment exists, and capitalised assets are written off where required. Where an area of interest is abandoned, or the directors decide that it is not commercial, any accumulated acquisition costs in respect of that area are written off in the financial period the decision is made. Each area of interest is also reviewed at the end of each accounting period and accumulated costs written off to the extent that they will not be recoverable in the future. As the Company’s previous projects are no longer being pursued, they are considered impaired.
Impairment of assets
At the end of each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed. Impairment testing is performed annually for intangible assets with indefinite lives. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

10. Contributed equity (continued)
Capital Management
The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, it does not have ready access to credit facilities and therefore is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements, with the primary source of Company funding being equity raisings. Accordingly, the objective of the Company’s capital risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements to meet exploration programmes and corporate overheads. This is achieved by maintaining appropriate liquidity to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.
Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares have no par value and have the right to receive dividends as declared and, in the event of the winding up of the Company, to participate in proceeds from the sale of all surplus assets in proportion to the number of and amounts paid up on the shares held. Ordinary shares entitle their holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at a meeting of the Company. Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuing of shares are deducted from share capital, net of any related income tax benefits.

Accounting policy
The Company operates equity-settled share-based payment employee share and option schemes. The fair value of the equity to which employees become entitled is measured at grant date and recognised as an expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding increase to an equity account. The fair value of shares is ascertained as the market bid price. The fair value of options is ascertained using a Black– Scholes pricing model which incorporates all market vesting conditions. The number of shares and options expected to vest is reviewed and adjusted at the end of each reporting date such that the amount recognised for services received as consideration for the equity instruments granted shall be based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.

c. Contingent liabilities
In the opinion of the Directors, there are no contingent liabilities as at 30 June 2025.
16. Financial instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of deposits with banks, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The Company does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments. The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk, credit rate risk and liquidity risk. The Company uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and other price risks and aging analysis for credit risk. Risk management is carried out by the Board and they provide written principles for overall risk management.
Financial risk exposures and management
The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk and market risk.
Market risk: Foreign currency risk
The Company has minimal exposure to foreign currency risk as at the reporting date.
Market risk: Cashflow interest rate risk
The Company’s only interest rate risk arises from cash and cash equivalents held. The Company does not consider this to be material and have therefore not undertaken any further analysis of risk exposure.
Market risk: Price risk
The Company is not exposed to equity securities price risk or commodity price risk.
Credit risk
As at 30 June 2025, trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. It is expected that these amounts will be received when due, thus the Company has not undertaken any further analysis of risk exposure.

16. Financial instruments (continued)
Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by arranging interest free loans with no fixed term of repayment from Directors.
Fair value estimation risk
The fair value of financial assets and liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes. The Directors consider that the carrying amount of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded in the financial statements approximates their fair values as the carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Accounting policy
Initial recognition and measurement
Financial instruments, incorporating financial assets and financial liabilities, are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Trade date accounting is adopted for financial assets that are delivered within timeframes established by marketplace convention. Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs where the instrument is not classified as ‘at fair value through profit or loss’, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
==> picture [35 x 22] intentionally omitted <==
16. Financial instruments (continued)
Classification and subsequent measurement
Finance instruments are subsequently measured at either of fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or cost. Amortised cost is the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and reduction for impairment, and adjusted for any cumulative amortisation of the difference between the amount initially recognised and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method. Fair value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit or loss.
The Company does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Loans and receivables are included in current assets, except for those which are not expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. (All other loans and receivables are classified as non-current assets).
Financial liabilities
Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Fair value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value of all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
Impairment of financial assets
At each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
De-recognition
Financial assets are derecognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity is no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised where the related obligations are either discharged, cancelled or expire. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF EXULTANT MINING LTD
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Exultant Mining Ltd (“the Company”), which comprises the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion:
-
a. the accompanying financial report of the Company is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:
-
(i) giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 30 June 2025 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and
-
(ii) complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.
-
b. the financial report also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards as disclosed in Note 2 (a).
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company 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 (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial report which indicates that the Company incurred a net loss of $76,261 during the year ended 30 June 2025. As stated in Note 2(b), these events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 2(b), indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in this respect of this matter.

Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Company’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the 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 financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In Note 2, the directors also state in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements , that the financial report complies with International Financial Reporting Standards.
In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
==> picture [561 x 59] intentionally omitted <==
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
-
Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
