Greentech Metals Ltd Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements For the period ended 30 June 2021
This report is prepared for the period from date of incorporation (24 March 2021) to 30 June 2021.
The financial reports cover Greentech Metals Ltd as a consolidated Group. Greentech Metals Ltd is a for profit proprietary parent company incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The parent company holds 100% of Greentech Holdings Pty Ltd.
The functional and presentation currency of Greentech Metals Ltd is Australian dollars.
The financial report was approved by the directors as at the date of the director’s report.
1 Basis of Preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB').
The parent company was incorporated on 24 March 2021 and hence the reporting period is from incorporation to 30 June 2021. As this is the Group’s first financial report, no comparatives have been included.
The parent company converted to a public company limited by shares on 27 August 2021.
Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Group incurred a loss for the period ended 30 June 2021 of $79,136, net cash outflows used in operating activities was $51,880. As at 30 June 2021, the Group had $67,663 in cash and cash equivalents.
Based on the Group’s future cashflow forecast, the Group will require additional funding in the next 12 months to enable it to continue its normal business activities and to ensure the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities as and when they fall due.
The Group is currently in process of undertaking an Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) in order to raise up to $5,000,000 through the issue of 25,000,000 fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.20 per share. The directors are confident that the IPO will be completed and funds received in order to ensure it has sufficient working capital available over the next 12 months. Should the IPO not proceed, further equity or debt funding will need to be undertaken.
These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Greentech Metals Ltd Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the period ended 30 June 2021
The financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts, nor the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Group not be able to continue as a going concern.
Principles of Consolidation
Subsidiaries
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Greentech Metals Ltd and the results of all subsidiaries at the reporting date. Greentech Metals Ltd and its subsidiaries together are referred to in this financial report as the group or the consolidated entity.

The group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity.
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital is 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. The capital structure of the Group consists of equity comprising issued capital and accumulated losses.
Due to the nature of the Group’s activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group’s capital risk management is to maintain sufficient current working capital position to meet the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programs and corporate overheads. The Group’s strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Greentech Metals Ltd
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Greentech Metals Ltd (the Entity) and its subsidiary (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the con solidated 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 period then ended, and notes to the financial report, including a summary of significant accounting policies and the declaration by those charged with governance.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2021, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the period then ended in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards.

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. 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 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 1 in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

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 on the other information obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, 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 management and those charged with governance for the Financial Report
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of a financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial report, management is responsible for assessing the Group’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 management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report
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.
