CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW
Dear Shareholders,
I am pleased to present the Annual Report of Greenwing Resources Ltd.
Greenwing continues to execute a strategy deliberately aligned with the global economies shift toward a lower carbon intensity, via progressing a portfolio of assets in Lithium and Graphite.
We are actively assessing development, funding, and investment options for our three projects — San Jorge Lithium Brine Project, Graphmada Graphite Mine, and Que River Polymetallic Project, all of which have JORC compliant Mineral Resources, aimed at maximizing shareholder value.
The San Francisco Salar (San Jorge Project) is one of only 23 salars in the Lithium Triangle, with Greenwing among five companies controlling an entire salar offering rare, strategic advantage. Following the successful initial drilling campaign in FY24 and further exploration surveys in FY25, the Company continues its review of exploration to optimize the upcoming second drilling program targeting high-potential salar zones.
Graphite assets carry critical strategic value amid rising global trade tensions and China’s export controls, underscoring the importance of secure non-China supply. Graphmada’s graphite production is qualified and has sold across all major global end markets. Further drilling is planned at Ambatofafana in the southern project area to enhance resource confidence.
Lithium and graphite fundamentals remain robust, with Greenwing well placed to benefit from an anticipated recovery in concentrate prices.
The Que River Project provides further value with an established polymetallic resource adjacent to an operating mine, enhancing growth potential. The Company continues with its ongoing detailed assessment of exploration, metallurgical, and production data to refine resource extensions and potential revised open pit designs.
I would like to acknowledge and thank Rick Anthon who recently stepped down from the board for his commitment and contribution to the Company over 12 years.
We would also like to thank our shareholders for their ongoing support.
Yours sincerely,
James Brown Chairman

SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN STATE OF AFFAIRS
Changes to the Company’s state of affairs are described in the Review of Operations which follows.
OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
Result for the financial year
Consolidated net profit after tax for the Group was $1,603,075 (2024: $1,991,322 loss). The movement in result from loss to profit between the periods is primarily attributed to:
-
Recognition of $6 million fair value gain on the expiration of the derivative liability;
-
Recognition of $2 million provision for rehabilitation expenditure taken up for the Que River mine site.
Dividends
No dividends have been paid during the period, and no dividends have been recommended by the Directors (2024: nil).
Material operational and financial results
Exploration and development - Lithium
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Andes Litio SA, has the option to acquire up to 100% of the San Jorge Lithium Brine Project located in Catamarca, Argentina. The San Jorge Project consists of 15 granted Exploration Licenses (EL’s) covering some 36,600 hectares inclusive of the San Francisco Salar.
The Company concluded its initial 6-hole program during the prior year and declared its maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at the San Jorge Project on the 27 May 2024[1] . Some key points to note regarding the MRE are:
-
MRE declared with 1.07Mt of Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (LCE) at a grade of 195 Li mg/L 2 as total resources, with 0.67 Mt LCE as Indicated Resources and 0.4 Mt LCE as Inferred Resources. Resources are contained in 0.65 and 0.38 cubic kilometres of brine respectively, with specific yield porosities of 7.4 and 7.3%.
-
Resource remains open laterally and at depth to the west and north, with the recent additional TEM (Transient electromagnetic geophysics) and passive seismic program indicating brine extends to the limits of current exploration.
-
63% of initial MRE classified in the indicated category. Overall resource characterized by strong porosity (specific yield) values, averaging 7.4% in the volcanics and sediments.
During the year the Company completed magnetotelluric (MT) and transient electromagnetic (TEM) geophysical exploration at San Jorge, supporting the interpretation that the lithium bearing brine extends to the west and north of the resource as well as at depth.
MT reveals the brine body extends to a depth of approximately 600 metres, which is beyond the depth extent obtainable by the TEM method. Notably, the brine body remains open at the western limit of both the MT and TEM surveys. The deepest drill hole, SJDD04, reached 402 meters, where lithium concentration increases with depth.
1 Reported in accordance with the 2012 Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (‘the JORC Code 2012’) released to the ASX on 27 May 2024 "San Jorge Lithium Brine Project – Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate”.
5
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
The MT and TEM electrical geophysics confirm the brine body extends more than 4 kilometres west of the salar boundary and over 5 kilometres to the north, providing significant opportunities to grow the project, with much of the brine body outside the salar.
There is considerable potential for future drilling in the exploration target and beneath the current Indicated and Inferred resources to potentially add more tonnes at a higher average grade.
There are a finite number of salars in the Lithium triangle and fewer again where the company has the rights to 100% of the entire salar and surrounding ground. The work done to date gives the Company a high degree of confidence that further drilling has the potential to increase the resource numbers at the San Jorge Project substantially.
The Company also reviewed its Millie’s Reward lithium-in-spodumene project and has engaged with the vendors of the project to progress completion of the transfer of the leases, with the intention to recommence field activities.
Exploration and development - Graphite
The Company continues to explore Graphmada for large-scale mining and processing operations, with a key focus on reducing operating costs and growing production to meet market demand at the lowest possible capital intensity.
During the 2023 financial year, the Company’s exploration program yielded a material upgrade in JORC Code (2012) Mineral Resource for the Graphmada Mining Complex of 212% to 61.9 million tonnes (Mt) of large flake graphite at 4.5% Total Graphitic Carbon as outlined in the Mineral Resource update released on 12 July 2022[3] .
The Company continues to conduct exploration in addition to care and maintenance activities on site. During the year it announced results from the auger drilling program at Andapa which confirmed further mineralisation. The Company intends to continue with exploration with a view to increase the Mineral Resource Estimate.
Greenwing made the decision in December 2019 to suspend mining and front-end processing at Graphmada at the end of December 2019, given a forecast of above average anticipated rainfall over the monsoon season, of a similar quantum to the previous year. In March 2020 operations were suspended following Madagascar closing its borders due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The mine remains under care and maintenance.
The Company is actively looking for partners to advance the project.
Exploration and development - Polymetallic
The Company’s Que River Project was previously mined for high grade quality base metals via underground operations in the 1980s and subsequently through open pit methods in the 2000’s. Currently, the project hosts a defined Mineral Resource comprising zones of mineralisation that were previously not optimised into the operations. With the rise in global metal prices and advancements in processing and extraction technologies, these zones now present a compelling opportunity for future development.
During the year, the Company has conducted a comprehensive review of the mineral resource and exploration potential of this project. A key outcome of this work was the release of an updated Mineral Resource Estimate[4] for the project (refer to a summary of the Mineral Resource Estimate at page 76). At current cut off the Mineral Resource contains a significant endowment of in-situ contained metal with 75 kt Zinc, 10 kt copper, 59 koz gold, 3700 koz silver and 36 kt lead. The previous Mineral Resource

estimate for Que River was most recently reported by the Company in its 2013 annual report, under the JORC Code 2004 Edition.
This re-assessment of the Que River Project confirms its potential as a valuable redevelopment opportunity, with an existing mineral resource, strong exploration upside, a granted mining lease, and proximity to established infrastructure. .
Financial Position
The Company raised additional funds via equity raisings during the year. Funding transactions during the financial year are summarised as follows:
-
issued 55,400,000 ordinary shares issued at a price of $0.038 raising $2,105,200;
-
issued 51,925,099 ordinary shares issued at a price of $0.03 raising $1,557,753;
-
the Company’s former Chairman provided an unsecured debt facility of $1 million. At reporting date, $382,200 had been drawn on this facility.
In 2022, the Company announced a strategic funding transaction with NIO Inc. (NIO)[5] enabling the Company to accelerate its exploration program at San Jorge Lithium Project and aligning NIO as the Company’s potential joint venture and offtake partner. The funds invested by NIO funded a successful maiden drilling program which yielded the declaration a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate as noted elsewhere in this report. A call option which was agreed as part of the strategic investment which gave NIO the right to acquire between 20% to 40% of the issued capital of Andes Litio SA. The call option holds options rights over the San Jorge Lithium Project expired unexercised on 27 May 2025.
On expiry of the call option, the financial derivative liability of $6,000,000 was derecognised and released to income; and the Company regaining control of Andes Litio SA, resulting in the investment being accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary from that date.
Risk management
Material business risks could adversely affect the achievement of the financial performance or financial outcomes of the Company. The Company monitors risk through regular reviews. Risks, responses, classifications and mitigation strategies are maintained and presented to the Board of the Company at each Board meeting. The Company will continue to monitor commodity markets and review its strategy periodically and adjust as required.
The material risks for the Company are:
Regulatory and compliance changes
Externalities such as environmental regulations and geopolitical factors could aversely affect future exploration and evaluation programs. Risk management systems are required to track, monitor and analyse market changes to assess potential impact on the business. Business policies need to be updated to ensure compliance with government or market regulator standards and regulations.
Regulatory and compliance changes can be managed by establishing a structured framework that includes monitoring new regulations, assessing their impact, updating policies and procedures, and training staff accordingly. Clear communication, robust internal controls, and the use of compliance calendars or software help ensure deadlines and obligations are met. Regular audits and continuous improvement processes further strengthen compliance, while fostering a culture of accountability ensures the business remains adaptable and resilient in the face of ongoing regulatory change.

ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
Permitting and land access risks
Land access is critical for exploration and/or exploration to succeed. It requires both access to the mineral rights and access to the surface rights. Mineral rights may be negotiated and required. In all cases the acquisition of prospective exploration and mining licences is a competitive business, in which proprietary knowledge or information is critical and the ability to negotiate satisfactory commercial arrangements with other parties is often essential. The Company may not be successful in acquiring or obtaining the necessary licences to conduct exploration or evaluation activities.
The Company can manage permitting and land access risks by engaging early with regulators, landowners, and community stakeholders to build trust and identify potential issues before they escalate. Clear mapping of permit requirements, timelines, and conditions helps prevent delays, while maintaining strong relationships with authorities supports smoother approvals. The Company should also develop contingency plans for access disruptions, ensure contractual agreements with landholders are robust, and monitor changes in legislation or local concerns that may affect access. Ongoing communication, transparency, and proactive risk management reduce the likelihood of costly project delays or disputes.
Third party risks
The Company may be required to obtain the consent of and/or pay compensation to the holders of third-party interests which overlay areas within the tenements, including pastoral leases, and other mining tenure in respect of exploration or mining activities on the tenements. Any delays in respect of conflicting third-party rights, obtaining necessary consents, or compensation obligations, may adversely impact the Company’s ability to carry out exploration or mining activities within the affected areas.
The Company can manage third-party risks by implementing a structured due diligence and monitoring process. This involves carefully vetting vendors, contractors, and partners before engagement, assessing factors such as financial stability, regulatory compliance, data security, and ethical practices. Clear contracts with defined responsibilities, performance standards, and audit rights help establish accountability. Once engaged, ongoing monitoring—through periodic reviews, risk assessments, and performance tracking—ensures third parties continue to meet requirements. Strong communication, contingency planning, and alignment with the company’s compliance and ethical standards further mitigate risks, protecting both operations and reputation.
Environmental risk
The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to overseas laws and regulations concerning the environment. The costs of complying with these laws and regulations may impact the development of economically viable projects. The Company’s activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or field development or mining proceeds. It is the Company’s intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.
The cost and complexity of complying with applicable environmental laws and regulations may prevent the Company from being able to develop potentially economically viable mineral deposits.
The Company may require approval from the relevant authorities before it can undertake activities that are likely to impact the environment. Failure to obtain such approvals will prevent the Company from undertaking its desired activities. The Company is unable to predict the effect of additional environmental laws and regulations, which may be adopted in the future, including whether any such laws or regulations would materially increase the Company’s cost of doing business or affect its operations in any area.
There can be no assurances that new environmental laws, regulations or stricter enforcement policies, once implemented, will not oblige the Company to incur significant expenses and undertake significant investments in such respect which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
8
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
The Company can manage environmental risk by first identifying and assessing potential impacts of its operations, such as emissions, waste, resource use, and biodiversity disruption. This should be followed by developing mitigation strategies, including adopting cleaner technologies, implementing waste reduction and recycling programs, and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and standards.
Establishing an environmental management system (such as ISO 14001), setting measurable sustainability targets, and monitoring performance regularly strengthens accountability. Engaging with stakeholders, conducting impact assessments, and preparing contingency plans for incidents (e.g., spills or natural disasters) further reduce risks. By embedding sustainability into strategy and culture, companies not only manage environmental risk but also enhance resilience and reputation.
Tenure and access risk
The Company’s rights in the tenements may be obtained by grant by regulatory authorities or be subject to contracts with third parties.
Any third party may terminate or rescind the relevant agreement lawfully or not and, accordingly, the Company may lose its rights to exclusive use of, and access to any, or all, of the tenements. Third parties may also default on their obligations under the contracts which may lead to termination of the contracts. Additionally, the Company may not be able to access the tenements due to natural disasters or adverse weather conditions, hostilities, or failure to obtain the relevant approvals and consents.
The Company can manage tenure and access risk by proactively securing legal rights and agreements for land use and resource access. This involves conducting thorough due diligence to understand land ownership, indigenous and community rights, and any overlapping claims. Early engagement with landowners, regulators, and local communities helps identify potential conflicts and build trust.
The Company should formalise agreements through clear contracts, permits, or licenses, and establish monitoring processes to ensure compliance with tenure conditions. Contingency planning for disputes or access restrictions, along with ongoing stakeholder communication, ensures operations remain secure and sustainable while minimizing legal, social, and reputational risks.
Currency price volatility
Volatility in prices requires careful management of business performance and cashflows. Lower prices can require a reassessment of the feasibility of mine plans and certain projects and initiatives. Even if a project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment could potentially cause substantial delays which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results and financial condition.
The Company can manage currency price volatility by implementing a combination of financial, operational, and strategic measures. Financially, it can use hedging instruments such as forward contracts, options, or swaps to lock in exchange rates and reduce exposure to fluctuations.
Operational strategies include diversifying suppliers and markets across different currencies, invoicing in the Company’s home currency where possible, and adjusting pricing to reflect exchange rate changes. Maintaining a flexible treasury strategy, monitoring currency trends, and regularly reviewing exposure levels allow the company to respond quickly to market movements. Together, these approaches help stabilise cash flows, protect profit margins, and reduce the financial impact of currency volatility.

ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
Climate change risk
Climate change risk refers to the potential impacts on a company’s operations, finances, and reputation from both physical events, such as extreme weather or rising sea levels, and transition risks, including regulatory changes and shifts to a low-carbon economy.
The Company can manage these risks by assessing exposure, implementing mitigation measures like reducing emissions and improving energy efficiency, strengthening infrastructure and supply chains, ensuring compliance with climate-related regulations, and integrating climate considerations into financial planning and reporting. Continuous monitoring and stakeholder engagement further enhance resilience and support sustainable long-term business performance.

Non-Executive Directors
The Board’s policy is to remunerate Non-Executive Directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment, and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the NonExecutive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties, and accountability. Independent external advice is sought as deemed appropriate. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at a general meeting. Fees for Non-Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align Non-Executive Directors’ interests with shareholder interests, NonExecutive Directors are encouraged to hold shares in the Company and may receive options as longterm incentive remuneration.
The Board has resolved that Director’s fees, for the Chairman will be $100,000 per annum, effective 1 July 2021 and for Non-Executive Directors will be $45,000 per annum, effective 1 April 2011. Shareholders approved on 30 November 2010 the aggregate remuneration for all non-executive directors at an amount of $350,000 per annum. This amount does not include the value of options provided to Non-Executive Directors or committee member fees.
Any issue of shares, options or performance rights to Directors under the Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan will be subject to shareholder approval pursuant to the provisions of the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act 2001.
From time-to-time Non-Executive Directors have undertaken specific tasks in addition to their role as Non-Executive Directors. The basis of remuneration for such tasks was agreed between the NonExecutive Director and the Company.
Bonus payments are at the discretion of the Board and are based certain milestones being achieved, such as the completion of a project, or overall company performance.
Executives
Executive Directors and executives receive either a salary plus superannuation guarantee contributions as required by law or provide their services via a consultancy arrangement. Individuals may elect to sacrifice part of their salary to increase payments towards superannuation. Bonus payments are at the discretion of the Board and are based on an executive’s performance. In addition, long term incentives are received through participation in the Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan.
The Board has resolved that fees payable to the Executive Director will be $335,000 per annum, effective 1 March 2025.
Valuation methodology
All remuneration paid to Directors and executives is valued at cost to the Group and expensed. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes methodology and performance rights are valued using the Monte Carlo Simulation methodology. Both the options and performance rights are expensed over the vesting period.

ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025

Base salary
Executive remuneration is structured as a “total employment cost” package comprising cash, leave benefits and superannuation, and is reviewed annually regarding competitiveness and performance. There are no guaranteed salary increases fixed in any senior executive contracts.
Greenwing Resources Ltd employee share loan scheme
There are no Employee Share Loans granted at reporting date.
Relationship between the remuneration policy and Group performance
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, Directors and executives. Two methods have been applied to achieve this aim, the first being a performance-based incentive based on performance milestones (included in the CEO remuneration package), and the second (at the Board’s discretion) being the issue of options and shares to directors, executives and employees to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The performance milestones (in relation to the CEO only) are set annually, with a certain level of consultation with key management personnel to ensure buy-in. The measures are specifically tailored to the area each individual is involved in and has a level of control over. The performance milestones target areas the Board believes hold greater potential for group expansion and profit, covering financial and non-financial as well as short and long-term goals. The level set for each performance milestone is based on the Group’s production plans and respective industry standards.
Performance in relation to the performance milestones is assessed annually, with bonuses being awarded depending on the degree to which the milestone has been achieved. Following the assessment, the performance milestones are reviewed by the Remuneration Committee considering the desired and actual outcomes, and their effectiveness in achieving the Group’s goals and shareholder returns. The performance milestones are then set for the following year.
During each year directors and executives of the Group may be issued with performance rights, options and shares. The Board considers that this is an appropriate way to attract persons of experience and ability to the Group; foster and promote loyalty by providing an incentive to remain in the Group’s employment for the long term; and to recognise the ongoing ability of key management personnel to contribute to the performance and success of the Group.
The proportion of remuneration linked to performance and the fixed proportion are as follows:
| Fixed | remuneration | At risk – STI | At risk - LTI | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | 2025 | 2024 | 2025 | 2024 |

| Item | 2025 | 2024 2023 2022 2021 |

Performance conditions linked to remuneration
The Group seeks to emphasise reward incentives for results and continued commitment to the Group through the provision of various cash bonus reward schemes, specifically the incorporation of incentive payments based on the achievement of performance milestones and continued employment with the Group.
The objective of the reward scheme is to both reinforce the short and long-term goals of the Group and provide a common interest between management and shareholders.
The satisfaction of the performance conditions is evidenced by execution of contracts or agreements and whole of Board assessment and approval. The Board does not consider that performance conditions should include a comparison with factors external to the Group at this time.
The performance related proportions of remuneration paid during the year based on these targets are included in the remuneration table, refer to page 17.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
1. General information and statement of compliance
These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of Greenwing Resources Ltd (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Consolidated Group” or “Group”). Greenwing Resources Ltd is the Group’s ultimate parent company (the “Parent entity”) and is a public company incorporated and domiciled in Australia.
Financial information of the parent entity, Greenwing Resources Ltd, is presented in Note 36.
The Group is a for profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.
The Financial Report was approved by the Board of Directors on 26 September 2025.
The consolidated general-purpose financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards results in full compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.
2. Summary of material accounting policies
Overall considerations
The material accounting policies that have been used in the preparation of these financial statements are summarised below.
The financial statements have been prepared using the measurement bases specified by Australian Accounting Standards for each type of asset, liability, income and expense. The measurement bases are more fully described in the accounting policies below.
Basis of consolidation
The Group financial statements consolidate those of the Parent Company and all of its subsidiaries (as noted in Note 34) as of 30 June 2025. The Parent controls a subsidiary if it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the subsidiary. Three subsidiaries have a different reporting date other than 30 June, however they have provided financial information to allow the consolidated Group financial statements to be prepared based on a 30 June reporting date.
All transactions and balances between Group companies are eliminated on consolidation, including unrealised gains and losses on transactions between Group companies. Where unrealised losses on intra-group asset sales are reversed on consolidation, the underlying asset is also tested for impairment from a group perspective. Amounts reported in the financial statements of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the accounting policies adopted by the Group.
Profit or loss and other comprehensive income of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are recognised from the effective date of acquisition, or up to the effective date of disposal, as applicable.
Non-controlling interests, presented as part of equity, represent the portion of a subsidiary’s profit or loss and net assets that is not held by the Group. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests. There are no non-controlling interests in the Group during the year.

ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025

2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Business combinations
The Group applies the acquisition method in accounting for business combinations. The consideration transferred by the Group to obtain control of a subsidiary is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of assets transferred, liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group, which includes the fair value of any asset or liability arising from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition costs are expensed as incurred.
Assets and liabilities assumed are generally measured at their acquisition-date fair values.
Foreign currency translation
Functional and presentation currency
The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian Dollars ($AUD), which is also the functional currency of the Parent Company. The functional currency of the Company subsidiaries Graphmada SARL, Graphmada Mauritius, Limada SARL, is US Dollars and Andes Litio SA is Argentine Peso and US Dollars, being the currency which sales and material expenses are transacted. These subsidiary financial statements are translated into Australian Dollars in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards as detailed below.
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year end exchange rates are recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value which are translated using the exchange rates at the date when fair value was determined.
Foreign operations
In the Group’s financial statements, all assets, liabilities and transactions of Group entities with a functional currency other than the $AUD are translated into $AUD upon consolidation. On consolidation, all monetary assets and liabilities have been translated into $AUD at the closing rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary items are not retranslated at year-end and are measured at historical cost, these are translated into $AUD using the exchange rates at the date of the transaction. Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity have been treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated into $AUD at the closing rate at the date of acquisition. Income and expenses have been translated into $AUD at the average rate over the reporting period. Exchange differences are charged or credited to other comprehensive income and recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation the cumulative translation differences recognised in equity are reclassified to profit or loss and recognised as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Segment reporting
Management currently identifies two operating segments. These operating segments are monitored by the Group’s chief operating decision maker and strategic decisions are made on the basis of adjusted segment operating results.
Factors which assist management in identifying reportable segments are broadly based on where project expenditure is to be spent in accordance with the Group’s strategic outlook.
27
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
The measurement policies the Group uses for segment reporting under the Accounting Standards are the same as those used in its financial statements, except those expenses relating to discontinuing operations (refer Note 9) are not included in arriving at the operating profit of the operating segments. In addition, non-current exploration and evaluation asset held for sale are assets which are not directly attributable to the business activities of any operating segment and are not allocated to a segment. There have been no changes from prior periods in the measurement methods used to determine reported segment profit or loss.
Interest income
Interest is reported on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.
Other Income
Other income is recognised as and when it is receivable and has been recorded as part of other receivables if it has not yet been received.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of the service or as incurred.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes all expenses directly attributable to the mining process as well as directly related production costs based on normal operating capacity. Costs of ordinarily interchangeable items are assigned using the first in, first out cost formula. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less any applicable selling expenses.
Equity Accounted Investments
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
A joint venture is a type of joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint venture. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.
The Consolidated Entity’s investment in its associate and joint venture are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised at cost. The carrying amount of the investment is adjusted to recognise changes in the Consolidated Entity’s share of net assets of the associate or joint venture since the acquisition date. The statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income reflects the Group’s share of the results of operations of the associate or joint venture. Any change in OCI of those investees is presented as part of the Group’s OCI. In addition, when there has been a change recognised directly in the equity of the associate or joint venture, the Group recognises its share of any changes, when applicable, in the statement of changes in equity. Unrealised gains and losses resulting from transactions between the Group and the associate or joint venture are eliminated to the extent of the interest in the associate or joint venture.
The financial statements of the associate or joint venture are prepared for the same reporting period as the Consolidated Entity. When necessary, adjustments are made to bring the accounting policies in line with those of the Consolidated Entity.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in its associate or joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the associate or joint venture is impaired. If there is such evidence, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate or joint venture and its carrying value, and then recognises the loss in the profit or loss.
28
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Upon loss of significant influence over the associate or joint control over the joint venture, the Group measures and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the carrying amount of the associate or joint venture upon loss of significant influence or joint control and the fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.
Property, plant and equipment
Equipment is initially recognised at acquisition or manufacturing cost, including any costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the Group’s management.
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated through the straight-line distribution of cost over the estimated economic useful life of the asset which is the period which the Company expects the use of the asset.
The Group uses the units of production basis when depreciating specific assets which results in a depreciation charge proportional to the depletion of the anticipated remaining life of mine production. Each item’s economic life, which is assessed annually, has due regard to both its physical life limitations and to present assessments of economically recoverable reserves of the mine property at which it is located.
The useful lives used for depreciation and amortisation of assets included in property, plant and equipment are presented below:
-
Buildings and infrastructure: 5 to 25 years
-
Plant & equipment: 2 to 25 years
-
Motor vehicles: 3 to 5 years
Material residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.
Gains or losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the assets and are recognised in profit or loss and other comprehensive income within other income or other expenses.
Exploration and evaluation
Exploration and evaluation activity involves the search for mineral resources, the determination of technical feasibility and the assessment of commercial viability of an identified resource. Exploration and evaluation activity includes:
-
Researching and analysing historical exploration data
-
Gathering exploration data through geophysical studies
-
Exploratory drilling and sampling
-
Determining and examining the volume and grade of the resource
-
Surveying transportation and infrastructure requirements
-
Conducting market and finance studies
Licence costs paid in connection with a right to explore in an existing exploration area are capitalised and amortised over the term of the permit. Once the legal right to explore has been obtained, exploration and evaluation expenditure is charged to profit or loss and other comprehensive income as incurred if the Group concludes that a future economic benefit is more likely than not to be realised. These costs include directly attributable employee remuneration, materials and fuel used, surveying costs, drilling costs and payments made to contractors.
In evaluating whether the expenditures meet the criteria to be capitalised, several different sources of information are used. The information that is used to determine the probability of future benefits depends on the extent of exploration and evaluation that has been performed.
29
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. Exploration and evaluation expenditure is capitalised in the year in which it is incurred when the following conditions are satisfied:
-
The rights to tenure of the area of interest are current; and
-
at least one of the following conditions is also met:
-
(i) the exploration and evaluation expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; and
-
(ii) exploration and evaluation activities in the area of interest have not at the end of the reporting period reached a stage which 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.
Accumulated costs in relation to an abandoned area are written off in full against profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made.
A regular review for impairment is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest.
Development assets
Development assets includes capitalised development expenditure, rehabilitation costs and accumulated amortisation.
Development expenditure
Development expenditure incurred by or on behalf of the consolidated entity is accumulated separately for each area of interest in which economically recoverable resources have been identified. Such expenditure comprises costs directly attributable to the construction of a mine, the related infrastructure and expenditure transferred from the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure phase.
Rehabilitation costs
Costs of site restoration are provided for over the life of the facility from when exploration commences and are included in the costs from that stage. Site restoration costs include obligations relating dismantling and removing mining plant, reclamation, waste dump rehabilitation and other costs associated with restoration and rehabilitation of the site. Such costs have been determined using estimates for current costs and currently legal requirements and technology.
Any changes in the estimates are accounted for on a prospective basis. In determining the costs of site restoration, there is uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of the restoration due to community expectations and future legislation. Accordingly, the costs have been determined on the basis that the restoration will be completed within one year of abandoning the site.
Amortisation of Development expenditure and rehabilitation costs
Amortisation is charged using the units-of-production method, with separate calculations being made for each area of interest. The units-of-production basis results in an amortisation charge proportional to the depletion of proved and probable reserves. Mine properties are tested for impairment in accordance with the following policy on Impairment Testing of Non-Financial Assets.
Impairment testing of non-financial assets
At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired.
For impairment assessment purposes, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely independent cash inflows (cash-generating units). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment, and some are tested at cash-generating unit level.
All other individual assets or cash-generating units are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
30
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value-in-use. To determine the value-in-use, management estimates expected future cash flows from each cash-generating unit and determines a suitable interest rate in order to calculate the present value of those cash flows. The data used for impairment testing procedures are directly linked to the Group’s latest approved budget, adjusted as necessary to exclude the effects of future reorganisations and asset enhancements. Discount factors are determined individually for each cash-generating unit and reflect management’s assessment of respective risk profiles, such as market and asset-specific risks factors.
Any impairment loss is charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit. All assets are subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss previously recognised may no longer exist. An impairment charge is reversed if the cash-generating unit’s recoverable amount exceeds its carrying amount.
Financial instruments
Recognition, initial measurement and derecognition
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument and are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transaction costs, except for those carried at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured initially at fair value. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expires.
Classification and subsequent measurement of financial assets
Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
-
amortised cost
-
fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
-
equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
-
debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)
Classifications are determined by both:
-
The entities business model for managing the financial asset
-
The contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets
All income and expenses relating to financial assets that are recognised in profit or loss are presented within finance costs, finance income or other financial items, except for impairment of trade receivables, which is presented within other expenses.
Subsequent measurement financial assets
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVPL):
-
they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows
-
the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding
31
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
Financial assets that are held within a different business model other than ‘hold to collect’ or ‘hold to collect and sell’ are categorised at fair value through profit and loss. Further, irrespective of business model financial assets whose contractual cash flows are not solely payments of principal and interest are accounted for at FVPL. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments, for which the hedge accounting requirements apply. The Group has no financial assets at fair value through profit or loss at the reporting date.
Equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Equity FVOCI)
Investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading are eligible for an irrevocable election at inception to be measured at FVOCI. Under Equity FVOCI, subsequent movements in fair value are recognised in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. Dividend from these investments continue to be recorded as other income within the profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents return of capital. The Group has no equity instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income as at the reporting date.
Debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income (Debt FVOCI)
Financial assets with contractual cash flows representing solely payments of principal and interest and held within a business model of collecting the contractual cash flows and selling the assets are accounted for at debt FVOCI. The Group has no debt instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income as at the reporting date.
Any gains or losses recognised in OCI will be reclassified to profit or loss upon derecognition of the asset.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group uses forward-looking information to recognise expected credit losses and considers a broad range of information when assessing credit risk and measuring expected credit losses. This includes past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the expected collectability of the future cash flows of the instrument. Instruments that are captured under this requirement includes trade and other receivables.
-
In applying this forward-looking approach, a distinction is made between:
-
financial instruments that have not deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition or that have low credit risk (‘Stage 1’) and
-
financial instruments that have deteriorated significantly in credit quality since initial recognition and whose credit risk is not low (‘Stage 2’).
‘Stage 3’ would cover financial assets that have objective evidence of impairment at the reporting date.
‘12-month expected credit losses’ are recognised for the first category while ‘lifetime expected credit losses’ are recognised for the second category.
Measurement of the expected credit losses is determined by a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses over the expected life of the financial instrument.
Classification and measurement of financial liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities include borrowings, trade and other payables and a derivative liability.
Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.
32
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVTPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss (other than derivative financial instruments that are designated and effective as hedging instruments).
All interest-related charges and, if applicable, changes in an instrument’s fair value that are reported in profit or loss are included within finance costs or finance income.
Income taxes
Tax expense recognised in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Current income tax assets and/or liabilities comprise those obligations to, or claims from, the Australian Taxation Office and other fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods, that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. However, deferred tax is not provided on the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability unless the related transaction is a business combination or affects tax or accounting profit. Deferred tax on temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures is not provided if reversal of these temporary differences can be controlled by the Group and it is probable that reversal will not occur in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Group has a right and intention to set off current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognised as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss, except where they relate to items that are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other short term, highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Non-current assets and liabilities classified as held-for-sale and discontinued operations
When the Group intends to sell a non-current asset or a group of assets (a disposal group), and if sale within 12 months is highly probable, the asset or disposal group is classified as “held for sale” and presented separately in the statement of financial position. Liabilities are classified as “held for sale” and presented as such in the statement of financial position if they are directly associated with a disposal group.
The Group has determined that its Tasmanian Non-Current Exploration and Evaluation asset held for sale shall be designated in this category.
Assets classified as “held for sale” are measured at the lower of their carrying amounts immediately prior to their classification as held for sale and their fair value less costs to sell. However, some “held for sale” assets such as financial assets or deferred tax assets, continue to be measured in accordance with the Group's accounting policy for those assets. Once classified as “held for sale”, the assets are not subject to depreciation or amortisation.
33
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Profit or loss from discontinued operations
A discontinued operation is a component of the entity that either has been disposed of, or is classified as held for sale, and:
-
represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations;
-
is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations; or
-
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale
Profit or loss from discontinued operations, including prior year components of profit or loss, are presented in a single amount in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. This amount, which comprises of the post-tax profit or loss of discontinued operations and the post-tax gain or loss resulting from the measurement and disposal of assets classified as held for sale.
The disclosures for discontinued operations in the prior year relate to all operations that have been discontinued by the reporting date for the latest period presented.
The Group has determined that its Tasmanian Non-Current Exploration and Evaluation asset held for sale shall be designated in this category.
Employee benefits
Wages, salaries and annual leave
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non–monetary benefits and annual leave expected to be settled wholly with 12 months of reporting date are recognised as provisions in respect of employee services up to reporting date. They are measured at the amounts that are expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
Equity and reserves
Share capital represents the fair 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.
Other components of equity include:
(a) Foreign currency translation reserve which records the exchange differences arising from translation of financial statements of foreign operations into Australian dollars;
(b) the Share based payments reserve which comprises costs associated with share-based payments (see Sharebased employee remuneration); and
(c) Convertible notes reserve which relates to the conversion feature of the convertible notes that meets the fixed-fixed test.
Accumulated losses include all current and prior period retained losses. All transactions with owners of the parent are recorded separately within equity.
Share-based employee remuneration
The Group operates equity-settled share-based remuneration plans for its employees. None of the Group's plans feature any options for a cash settlement.
All goods and services received in exchange for the grant of any share-based payment are measured at their fair values. Where employees are rewarded using share-based payments, the fair values of employees' services are determined indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted. This fair value is appraised at the grant date and excludes the impact of non-market vesting conditions (i.e.: profitability and sales growth targets and performance conditions).
All share-based remuneration is ultimately recognised as an expense in profit or loss with a corresponding credit to share based payments reserve. If vesting periods or other vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest.
34
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Non-market vesting conditions are included in assumptions about the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognised in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognised in prior periods if share options ultimately exercised are different to that estimated on vesting.
Upon exercise of share options, the proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to share capital.
Transactions with parties other than employees
The Group enters into share based payment transactions where the Group receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments (including shares or options). The goods or services received or acquired in a share-based payment transaction are recognised when the entity obtains the goods or as the services are received. Accordingly, the Group recognises an increase in equity in an equity settled share-based payment transaction. When recognising share-based payments arising from grant of an equity instrument, the Group considers the effect of any vesting conditions. The Group measures the goods and services received, and the corresponding increase in equity at the fair value of the goods or services received, unless that fair value cannot be reliably estimated, at which time the Group measures the fair value indirectly by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted.
In 2023 the Group issued shares to acquire Andes Litio SA (refer to Note 13). The consideration paid in the form of equity instruments has been accounted for as a share based payment by reference to the fair value of the asset acquired. Shares to be issued as part of the deferred consideration are recorded in the share based payment reserve as at 30 June 2025.
Provisions, contingent assets and liabilities
General
Provisions for legal disputes, onerous contracts or other claims are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of: (a) a past event; (b) it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required from the Group; and (c) amounts can be estimated reliably. Timing or amount of the outflow may still be uncertain.
Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material.
Any reimbursement that the Group can be virtually certain to collect from a third party with respect to the obligation is recognised as a separate asset. However, this asset may not exceed the amount of the related provision.
In those cases where the possible outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligations is considered improbable or remote, no liability is recognised.
Rehabilitation provision
Mine rehabilitation costs will be incurred by the Group either while operating, or at the end of the operating life of, the Group’s facilities and mine properties. The Group assesses its mine rehabilitation provision at each reporting date. The Group recognises a rehabilitation provision where it has a legal and constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount of obligation can be made. The nature of these restoration activities includes dismantling and removing structures; rehabilitating mines and tailings dams; dismantling operating facilities; closing plant and waste sites; and restoring, reclaiming and revegetating affected areas.

ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
The obligation generally arises when the asset is installed or the ground/environment is disturbed at the mining operation’s location. When the liability is initially recognised, the present value of the estimated costs is capitalised by increasing the carrying amount of the related mining assets to the extent that it was incurred as a result of the development/construction of the mine.
Over time, the discounted liability is increased for the change in present value based on the discount rates that reflect current market assessments and the risks specific to the liability. The periodic unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income as part of finance costs.
Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Value Added Tax (VAT)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST and VAT, except where the amount of GST and VAT incurred is not recoverable from the Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST and VAT is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST and VAT.
Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST and VAT components of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
Comparative figures
Where required by accounting standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year.
Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies
When preparing the financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about the recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.
Information about estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses is provided below. Actual results may be substantially different.
Provision for mine rehabilitation
The Group assesses its mine rehabilitation provision annually. Significant estimates and assumptions are made in determining the provision for mine rehabilitation as there are numerous factors that will affect the ultimate liability. These factors include estimates of the extent, timing and costs of rehabilitation activities, technological changes, regulatory changes, cost increases as compared to inflation rates, and changes in discount rates. These uncertainties may result in future actual expenditure differing from the amounts currently provided. Refer to note 23 for the provision for mine rehabilitation.
Estimation of useful lives of assets
The Group’s management determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortisation charges for its property, plant and equipment. The useful lives could change significantly because of technical innovations or some other event. Management will increase the depreciation and amortisation charge where useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or it will write off or write down technically obsolete or nonstrategic assets that have been abandoned or sold. There has been no change to the estimated useful lives of assets at year-end.
Impairment
In assessing impairment, management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash-generating unit based on expected future cash flows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate. Refer to note 19 for the impairment testing of non-current assets performed.

2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Exploration and evaluation
The application of the Group’s accounting policy for E&E expenditure requires judgement to determine whether future economic benefits are likely from either future exploitation or sale, or whether activities have not reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves. In addition to applying judgement to determine whether future economic benefits are likely to arise from the Group’s E&E assets or whether activities have not reached a stage that permits a reasonable assessment of the existence of reserves, the Group has to apply a number of estimates and assumptions. The determination of an Australasian Joint Ore Reserves Committee Code (JORC) resource is itself an estimation process that involves varying degrees of uncertainty depending on how the resources are classified (i.e., measured, indicated or inferred). The estimates directly impact when the Group defers E&E expenditure. The deferral policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events and circumstances, particularly, whether an economically viable extraction operation can be established. Any such estimates and assumptions may change as new information becomes available. If, after expenditure is capitalised, information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of expenditure is unlikely, the relevant capitalised amount is written off to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income in the period when the new information becomes available. There has been no change to the assumptions of exploration and evaluation at year-end.
Ore reserve and mineral resource estimates
Ore reserves and mineral resource estimates are estimates of the amount of ore that can be economically and legally extracted from the Group’s mining properties. Such reserves and mineral resource estimates and changes to these may impact the Group’s reported financial position and results, in the following way:
-
The carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets, mine properties (development assets), plant and equipment may be affected due to changes in estimated future cash flows
-
Depreciation and amortisation charges in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income may change where such charges are determined using the units of production method, or where the useful life of the related assets change
-
Provisions for mine rehabilitation may change where reserve estimate changes affect expectations about when such activities will occur and the associated cost of these activities
The Group estimates its ore reserves and mineral resources based on information compiled by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological and technical data on the size, depth, shape and grade of the ore body and suitable production techniques and recovery rates. Such an analysis requires complex geological judgements to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, future capital requirements and production costs, along with geological assumptions and judgements made in estimating the size and grade of the ore body. As the economic assumptions used may change and as additional geological information is produced during the operation of a mine, estimates of ore reserves and mineral resources may change.
The Group estimates and reports mineral resources in line with the principles contained in the 2004 and 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (the JORC Code).
There was no change in estimates during the year when compared to the prior year.
Provision for impairment of Inventory
The Group estimates the value of equipment, spares and consumables that are on hand and that can be used in the production of graphite. Judgement is exercised by the Group in determining whether these parts will be realised through future production. There was a write down of inventory during the year of $201,354 which was due to consumables that were not of value.

2. Summary of material accounting policies (continued)
Treatment of uncertain tax positions
The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Graphmada SARL, has been advised by the Madagascan tax authorities that it is reviewing tax lodgements for 2019-2021.
In relation to the 2019 - 2021 years, these reviews are in the preliminary stage, and the Company has not yet received any formal notice and accordingly is not able to quantify the potential financial outcome at this time. It is noted that the level of operating and financial activity has reduced significantly during this period following the Graphmada mine ceasing processing in December 2019, which was then followed the onset of COVID-19.
No provision has been recorded in the year ended 30 June 2025. The directors have concluded that it is probable the Company’s view will be accepted by the taxation authority and as such no liability has been recognised, which is consistent with the tax treatment in the lodged filings which will be defended.
Graphmada has VAT receivable of AUD $800,492 as at 30 June 2025 (2024 – AUD$775,875) (refer Note 12). Andes Litio SA has VAT receivable of AUD $829,340 (2024 – AUD $983,225 fully impaired as joint venture investment.) As VAT refunds have not been received since the on-set of COVID-19, and is not paid in Argentina until production commences, this amount has been fully impaired as at 30 June 2025.
3. Changes in accounting policies
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2025. The consolidated entity's assessment of the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations, most relevant to the consolidated entity, are set out below.
AASB 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
This standard is applicable to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and early adoption is permitted. The standard replaces IAS 1 'Presentation of Financial Statements', with many of the original disclosure requirements retained and there will be no impact on the recognition and measurement of items in the financial statements. But the standard will affect presentation and disclosure in the financial statements, including introducing five categories in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations. The standard introduces two mandatory sub-totals in the statement: 'Operating profit' and 'Profit before financing and income taxes'. There are also new disclosure requirements for 'management-defined performance measures', such as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation ('EBITDA') or 'adjusted profit'. The standard provides enhanced guidance on grouping of information (aggregation and disaggregation), including whether to present this information in the primary financial statements or in the notes. The consolidated entity will adopt this standard from 1 July 2027 and it is expected that there will be a significant change to the layout of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.
4. Going concern
The financial report for the year ended 30 June 2025 has been prepared based on going concern, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.
During the year, the Group reported a profit after tax of $1,603,075 (2024: loss after tax $1,991,322), net operating cash outflows of $1,199,714 (2024: $887,626) and a net current asset deficiency of $2,338,717 (2024: $6,059,883). In addition, the Group has the following commitment to settle within 12 months:
-
a $1,300,000 obligation to Mineral Resources Tasmania (via bank guarantee or cash deposit) to satisfy the requirement of the Que River mining licence. The Group has entered into a payment arrangement (refer note 24 and 27 for details).
-
USD $1,750,000 to be paid by Andes Litio to acquire the remaining interests in San Jorge Lithium Brine Project (refer note 27 for details).
-
The cash and cash equivalents balance as at 30 June 2025 is not sufficient to cover these commitments. Prima facie, these factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.
38
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
4. Going concern (continued)
The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon one or more of the following:
-
the ability of the Group to raise sufficient additional capital in the future. Refer to note 25 and 35 for capital raises completed during the year and subsequent to year end;
-
its ability to achieve a financial return from its mining and exploration rights;
-
reducing its level of expenditure through farm outs or joint ventures;
-
access to a loan facility of $1,000,000 (which has an expiry date of 31 December 2025). As at 30 June 2025, $382,200 has been drawn down and $617,800 of the facility is available to be drawn. (refer to note 21); and
-
the realisation of funds from the sale of inventories and interests in exploration assets. As at the date of this report the directors are unable to confirm the success or otherwise of any asset sale.
As a result of the items noted above the directors believe the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate and accordingly have prepared the financial report on this basis. The going concern basis presumes that funds will be available to finance future operations and that the realisation of assets and liabilities will occur in the normal course of business.
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 ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial report.

Deferred tax asset not recognised is $25,656,706 (2024: $26,506,517) which is represented by $22,980,047 (2024: $22,280,341) from Australian based operations carried forward tax losses and undisclosed tax losses of $2,676,659 (2024: $4,226,176) from overseas subsidiaries based on prior years lodged tax returns and the accounting losses for the periods to 30 June 2025.
The deferred tax balances have been recognised at the current tax rate of 30% (2024: 30%).
The deductible temporary differences and tax losses do not expire under current tax legislation. Madagascan Tax Losses expire after a period of 5 years. Deferred tax assets have not been recognised in respect of these items because it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the Group can utilise the benefits from.
9. Loss attributable to discontinued operations
The Company had signed an agreement to sell its Tasmanian exploration assets which was subject to several customary conditions for an agreement of this type, and these conditions were not satisfied. These assets remain available for sale. Refer to note 24. The disposal group was fully impaired during 2017 and is, therefore, carried at nil value having been recognised as Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Assets Held for Sale in the Statement of Financial Position. During the current and prior year, care and maintenance expenses relating to the disposal group have been eliminated from profit or loss from the Group’s continuing operations and are shown as a single line item on the face of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (see Loss from discontinued operations).
The Company is currently in negotiations with an external party to dispose of the assets.

Cash at bank earns interest at floating rates based on daily bank deposit rates. Short-term deposits are made for varying periods of between one day and three months, depending on the immediate cash requirements of the Group, and earn interest at the respective short-term deposit rates. The Group deposits cash surpluses only with major banks of high-quality credit standing.
The Company’s subsidiary Andes Litio SA has its cash balance included in the Group cash balance. The investment is now accounted for as a consolidated entity from 27 May 2025 after previously being accounted for as an investment in joint venture using equity method – refer Note 13. As at 27 May 2025, Andes Litio SA’s cash balance was $14,625.

There is no restricted cash in the cash and cash equivalents disclosed above and in the statement of cash flows (2024: $622,769). Under the strategic funding transaction with NIO Inc, 80% of funds received from the placement of $12 million are to be used for the San Jorge Lithium Project and are therefore not available for general use by the Group. The funding for the San Jorge Lithium Project has been fully expended.

As part of the strategic funding transaction with NIO Inc. through its wholly owned subsidiary Blue Northstar Limited (NIO), the Company lost sole control of the relevant activities of Andes Litio SA on signing the subscription agreement in September 2022. Even though the Group retains 100% of the shares and voting rights, joint control exists as decisions about the relevant activities of the San Jorge Project require unanimous consent of the parties.
The subscription agreement became unconditional on 19 December 2022, whereby the Company had an unconditional right to receive $12 million from NIO. The $12 million subscription represents NIO paying the Company for a call option to acquire up to 40% in Andes Litio SA and an equity stake in the Company. The call option issued by the Company to NIO to acquire up to a 40% stake in Andes Litio SA represents a derivative liability to the Company. The fair value of the call option was independently valued at $6 million.
The Company has deconsolidated its interest in Andes Litio SA from the date of signing the subscription agreement (as control was deemed to have been lost) and recognise its interest in Andes Litio SA as an interest in a jointly controlled entity and is accounted for under the equity accounting method.
The call option was not exercised by NIO prior to its expiry date of 27 May 2025 and lapsed in accordance with the terms of the Call Option Deed. Upon expiry of the Call Option Deed, the Company regained sole control of Andes Litio SA resulting in the investment being accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary. The regain of control has been treated as an asset acquisition with the balance of the investment being recognised in exploration and evaluation assets as disclosed in Note 17.

Carry forward exploration and evaluation expenditure
The recovery of the costs of exploration and evaluation expenditure carried forward is dependent upon the discovery of commercially viable mineral and other natural resource deposits and their subsequent development and exploitation or alternatively their sale.
Exploration and evaluation assets held for sale
The Tasmanian assets held for sale are fully impaired and carried at nil value having been previously recognised as Capitalised Exploration and Evaluation Assets Held for Sale in the Statement of Financial Position.

17.Exploration and evaluation assets (continued)
Impairment and write-off
Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of an exploration and evaluation asset may exceed its recoverable amount. Management regularly evaluates the recoverability of exploration and evaluation assets.
18. Development assets

19. Impairment testing of non-current assets
In accordance with the Group’s accounting policies and processes, the Group performs its impairment assessment annually at 30 June. Non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting period to determine whether there is an indication of impairment.
When indicators of impairment exist, a formal estimate of the recoverable amount is made. External and internal indicators of impairment as at 30 June 2025 included;
-
the mine being in care and maintenance whilst further exploration is undertaken;
-
increased expected future costs of production; and
-
under-utilisation of the processing plant.
The Group made the decision in December 2019 to suspend mining and front-end processing at Graphmada at the end of December 2019, given a forecast of above average anticipated rainfall over the monsoon season, of a similar quantum to Q1 2019. In March 2020 operations were suspended following Madagascar closing its borders due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The mine remains under care and maintenance.
Due to the indicators above, the Group assessed the recoverable amounts of its major Cash-Generating-Unit (“CGU”), relating to the mining operations.
a) Impairment testing
i) Methodology
Impairment is recognised when the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount being the value in use of the CGU has been estimated using the discounted cashflows method based on the Group’s recoverable minerals.
Value in use is estimated based on discounted cash flows using market-based commodity price, estimated quantities of recoverable minerals, production levels, operating costs and capital requirements detailed in the Company’s Life of Mine (“LOM”) plan. The 2025 LOM plan utilises an estimated 6-year production timeframe based on the expansion of production to 40,000 tonnes of saleable concentrates per annum, utilising 100% Measured and 60% Indicated Mineral Resources estimated in accordance with the JORC Code 2012. No Inferred Mineral Resources were utilised in LOM planning.
49
ANNUAL REPORT For the year ended 30 June 2025
==> picture [161 x 39] intentionally omitted <==
19. Impairment testing of non-current assets (continued)
Significant judgements and assumptions are made by the Group to determine value in use. This includes assessing variable key assumptions such as market prices, cost structures, production utilisation and capacity, available minerals and discount rates. Any change in these variable assumptions can cause adverse changes in one or more of the assumptions used to estimate value in use.
ii) Key assumptions
The table below summarises the key assumptions used in the 30 June 2025 carrying value assessments. Comparison to the prior period has been provided.
| Assumptions | Unit | 2025 (2029-2048) |
2024 (2028-2047) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Projected average graphite price | US$/ton | 1,600 | 1,056 |
| Projected average C1 costs(1) | US$/ton | 775 | 470 |
| Pre-Tax discount rate (%)(2) | % | 30 | 24 |
| Mineral resource (M&I only)(3) | Contained Graphite Tonnes (000’s) |
1,263 | 1,263 |
| Production capacity per annum(4) | Tonnes (000’s) | 20 - 40 | 20 – 40 |
| Production start date | 2029 | 2028 | |
| Production end date | 2048 | 2047 |
Notes:
-
(1) C1 costs represents the cash cost of running the mining operation in Madagascar. These are production and local administration operating costs and includes royalties paid to the government.
-
(2) Discount rate reflects country risk of Madagascar.
(3) The Company continues to undertake drilling programs with the intention of materially increasing its Mineral Resource. The Contained Graphite only includes Measured and 60% of Indicated Mineral Resources.
(4) The Production Capacity increase would require a substantial investment by the Company before 40,000t annual production capacity could be achieved.
Commodity prices
Commodity prices are estimated with reference to external, independent market forecasts and reviewed at least annually. The price applied is conservative and has considered observable market data.
Discount rate
The future cash flows of the CGU are discounted by the estimated real after tax weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), pursuant to the Capital Asset Pricing Model. The denominal pre-tax WACC has been derived from comparable company analysis, in addition to the WACC rate of the group’s mining operations being the primary CGU.
Production activity and operating and capital costs
Life of mine (LOM) production activity and operating and capital cost assumptions are based on the Group’s latest five-year budget and expansion studies. Discounted cash flows include expected cost improvements and sustaining capital requirements. Estimated production is assumed consistent with the capacity constraint of the proposed Process Plant considered while assuming a constant recovery rate.
Resources and reserves
Mineral resource tonnes were based on the Group’s JORC 2012 compliant Mineral Resource Statement detailed on page 74.

19. Impairment testing of non-current assets (continued)
iii) Impacts
Due to the recoverable amount of the Group’s mining operations CGU being more than the estimated carrying amount, no impairment charge was required for the year ending 2025 (2024: nil):

| 11,640,588 - 11,640,588 |
11,060,829 11,060,829 |
Based on current assumptions, the recoverable amount is estimated to be AUD $46.2 million (2024: AUD $44.5 million)
b) Sensitivity analysis
Sensitivity analysis is conducted on an amount by which the value assigned on key assumption must change to make the recoverable amount to be equal to the carrying amount. The changes to estimated key assumptions would have the following approximate impact on the recoverable amount of the CGU in its functional currency that has been subject to impairment in the 30 June 2025 statutory accounts:
-
A decrease in the graphite price to USD $1,375 (2024: USD $925) per tonne.
-
A 10bp (2024: 5bp) movement increase in the discount rate.
-
A 30% (2024: 20%) increase in operating costs.
For the year ended 30 June 2024, the approximate impact on the recoverable amounts of the CGU was disclosed as follows:
-
A decrease in the graphite price to USD $925 per tonne would result in an impairment.
-
A 5bp movement increase in the discount rate would result in an impairment.
-
A 20% increase in operating costs would result in an impairment.
In addition to the above, the level of production activity is also a key assumption in the determination of recoverable amount. Should the Group recognise decreases/increases in processing capacity, changes in recoverable amount estimates may arise. Due to the number of factors that could impact production activity, assessment to sensitivity has not been determined for these factors.
The sensitivities above assume specific assumption moves are in isolation, whilst all other assumptions are held constant. A change in one of the assumptions may accompany a change in another assumption.

Other payables are recognised when the Group has identified a present obligation from the result of past events. These amounts include employee payment obligations, professional fees and statutory obligations.
Due to the short-term nature of these payables, their carrying value is assumed to approximate their fair value. Trade payables and other payables are non-interest-bearing and are normally settled on 30 to 60-day terms. For other terms and conditions relating to related party payables refer Note 30. Information regarding credit, foreign exchange and liquidity risk exposure is set out in Note 29.

As part of the strategic funding transaction with NIO Inc., the Company received $12 million in subscription proceeds. The Subscription comprises of two components, namely:
An equity interest in Greenwing; and
- A call option to acquire up to a 40% stake in Andes Litio SA (together with the offtake rights on the equity interest acquired in Andes Litio SA).
The call option issued by the Company to NIO to acquire up to a 40% stake in Andes Litio SA represents a derivative liability to the Company. At inception, the fair value of the derivative liability – call option was assessed to be $6,000,000 and represented the premium agreed to be paid by NIO for the right to acquire up to a 40% stake in Andes Litio SA (and associated offtake rights). The residual amount to be paid by NIO of $6,000,000 has been recorded as equity (refer Note 25). The call option expired in May 2025 without being exercised, therefore the Company recognised the expiration in profit & loss.
Fair value hierarchy
The levels detail the consolidated entity's assets and liabilities, measured or disclosed at fair value, using a threelevel hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being:
-
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date
-
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
-
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

22. Financial derivative liability (continued)
Valuation techniques for fair value measurements categorised within level 2 and level 3
Derivative liability – call option fair value at reporting date
The cost to NIO to exercise their call option for a 40% stake in Andes Litio SA would be USD $80 million, valuing 100% of Andes Litio SA and the San Jorge project to be USD $200 million. The fair value of the call option is calculated using the probability weighted excess value discounted to the valuation date, being 26 September 2022 when then the Company entered into the subscription agreement with NIO.
The fair value of the call option is reasonably approximated by calculating the probability-weighted potential excess value of Andes Litio SA (and its sole asset the San Jorge Project) above the $200 million and discounting the value to the valuation dates.
Level 3 – Liabilities

25.Issued capital
Capital management
For the purpose of the Group’s capital management, capital includes issued capital, and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Group’s capital management is to ensure that it maintains a strong credit rating and healthy capital ratios to support its business and maximise the shareholder’s value.
Management controls the capital of the Group by monitoring performance against budget to provide the shareholders with adequate returns and ensure the Group can fund its operations and continue as a going concern. The Group’s debt and capital includes ordinary share capital and financial liabilities, supported by financial assets.
Management effectively manages the Group’s capital by assessing the Group’s financial risks and adjusting its capital structure in response to changes in these risks and in the market. These responses include the management of debt levels, distributions to shareholders and share issues. There have been no changes in the strategy adopted by management to control the capital of the Group since the prior year. There are no externally reported capital requirements.
The Group monitors capital based on the carrying amount of equity plus debt (if any) less cash and cash equivalents as presented on the face of the statement of financial position.
The amounts managed as capital by the Group for the reporting periods under review are summarised as follows:
| Total equity Cash and cash equivalents Capital Total equity Borrowings Overall financing Capital-to-overall financing ratio Issued and paid up capital Ordinary shares - fully paid |
2025 2024 $ $ 21,688,579 16,481,969 (787,367) (708,672) |

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on winding up of the Group in proportion to the number of fully paid ordinary shares. On a show of hands every holder of ordinary shares present at a meeting, in person or by proxy, is entitled to one vote and upon a poll each share is entitled to one vote. The Group has no authorised share capital, and the shares have no par value.

c) Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan (ESOP)
The Greenwing Resources Ltd Employee Share and Option Plan (“ESOP” or “Plan”) was approved by shareholders at an annual general meeting held on 30 November 2010. The directors of the Group administer the Plan and in their absolute discretion determine to whom the securities will be offered, the number to be offered and any performance criteria in relation to the options or performance rights issued under the Plan.
Options or performance rights may not be issued to a director (or associate) or employee except where the relevant shareholder approval is provided pursuant to the Corporations Act 2001 and ASX Listing Rules. No consideration is payable by an eligible person for a grant of an option or a performance right, unless the board decides otherwise.
Subject to the rules of the Plan and to ASX Listing Rules, the Group (acting through the Board) may offer options or performance rights to any eligible person at such times and on such terms as the Board considers appropriate. Options issued under the Plan may be exercised or vest at any time during the period commencing on the issue date and ending no later than five years from the date of issue.
Performance rights granted will only vest upon satisfaction of the performance condition and during the period that the performance condition was met. Options or performance rights which have vested and have been issued under the Plan will automatically lapse in three months from the date of departure or such longer period as the board determines in the event that an eligible person either resigns voluntarily from employment with the Group or is dismissed in certain circumstances, unless otherwise agreed by the Board.
Options or performance rights issued under this Plan carry no dividend or voting rights. On vesting of performance rights, shares will automatically be issued to the eligible person subject to compliance with the Group’s Policy for Trading in Group Securities and the insider trading provisions of the Corporations Act 2001. Unless otherwise provided in the invitation to receive performance rights, no amount shall be payable by the eligible person on the automatic exercise of performance rights.
Set out below are summaries of options granted under the plan:

29. Financial risk management
(i) Financial risk management policies
The Group is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Group’s financial instruments consist of at call and short term deposits with banks, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, borrowings and financial derivative liability.
The Group’s risk management is coordinated at its headquarters, in close cooperation with the Board of Directors, and focuses on actively securing the Group’s short to medium-term cash flows by minimising the exposure to financial markets. Long-term financial investments are managed to generate lasting returns.
It is the Group’s policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes may be undertaken. Currently, the Group does not apply any form of hedge accounting. The Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes nor does it write options. The most significant financial risks to which the Group is exposed are described below.
(ii) Financial risk exposures and management
The main types of risks affecting the Group are market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises three types of risks: foreign currency, interest rate risk and commodity price risk. The Group’s financial instruments affected by market risk include deposits, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and accrued liabilities.
Foreign currency risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Group has transactional currency exposures that arise from sales or purchases in currencies other than the respective functional currencies. The Group manages this risk by matching receipts and payments in the same currency and monitoring movements in exchange rates.
The Group’s transactions are usually carried out in either $AUD, $US-Dollars ($USD), Argentine Pesos (ARS) and Malagasy Ariary (MGA). Exposures to currency exchange rates arise from:
-
The Group’s overseas trade receivables which are primarily denominated in $US-Dollars ($USD),
-
VAT receivable which are denominated in either MGA or ARS
-
Trade and other payables are denominated in either $USD, ARS or MGA.
-
The Group may also hold cash balances in $USD, ARS and MGA.
Foreign currency sensitivity
The following table demonstrates the Groups sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in the Australian Dollar against the relevant foreign currencies and the impact on the reported loss for the year. 5% represents management’s assessment of the possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity includes only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items and adjusts their translation at the period end for a 5% change in foreign currency rates.

|
| +/-41,566 +/- 41,566 |
|
| +/- 1,846 +/- 1,846 +/- 36,922 +/- 36,922 |
If the AUD had strengthened against the $USD, or MGA, by 5% then this would have increased the reported profit by the above amounts.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of change in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s cash deposits. The Group’s convertible notes issued have a fixed interest rate and therefore have no exposure to the risk of change in market interest rates.
Interest rate sensitivity
Interest rate sensitivities have not been included in the financial report as the changes in the loss before tax due to changes in interest rate is not material to the results of the Group.
(b) Liquidity risk
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
As at 30 June 2025, the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities have contractual maturities (including interest payments where applicable) as summarised below:
| Current | Non-current | Non-current | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Within 6 | 6 to 12 | 1 to 5 | Later |
| months | months | years | than 5 | |

| Debt facility including fees and interest | 382,200 | - | - | - |
| 1,791,078 | - | - | - |
This compares to the maturity of the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities in the previous reporting period as follows:
| 2024 Trade and other payables Debt facility including fees and interest |
Current Non-current Within 6 months 6 to 12 months 1 to 5 years Later than 5 years |

29.Financial risk management (continued)
(c) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to this risk for various financial instruments, for example by granting receivables to customers and placing deposits, etc. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the reporting date, as summarised below:
| Classes of financial assets Carrying amount: Cash and cash equivalents Other receivables Tasmanian assets – security deposit |
2025 2024 $ $ 787,367 708,672 24,701 60,817 500,000 500,000 |
|---|---|
| 1,312,068 1,269,489 |
There are no amounts of collateral held as security at 30 June 2025.
The credit risk for cash and cash equivalents, money market funds, debentures and derivate financial instruments is considered negligible since the counterparties are reputable banks with high quality external credit ratings.
VAT, after expected credit losses, is receivable from the Government of Madagascar for the equivalent value of A$nil (2024: A$nil) at reporting date. The receivable amount relates to VAT included on trade and other purchase transactions in Madagascar since acquiring the Graphmada operations. Whilst the Company is confident that it will receive the VAT in full, there is always an element of risk associated with recouping foreign taxes.
The Group’s management considers that all of the above financial assets that are not impaired or past due for each of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality.
At reporting date, the Group has other receivables that have not been settled by the contractual due date. The Group has VAT receivable that is impaired.
The closing balance of trade and other receivables loss allowances as at 30 June 2025 reconciles with trade and other receivables loss allowance opening balance as follows:
| Opening estimated credit losses 1 July 2024 Credit losses from newly consolidated investment from 1 June 2025 Estimated credit losses provided in year and foreign exchange movements Expected credit loss at 30 June 2025 |
2025 2024 $ $ 775,875 814,331 982,656 - (128,699) (38,456) |

The fair value of a financial asset or a financial liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and trade and other payables approximate their carrying values, as a result of their short maturity or because they carry floating rates of interest.
Financial instruments classified as other receivables – VAT receivable are measured at amortised cost. No other financial assets or financial liabilities are measured at fair value.
The fair value of the Groups’ financial instruments recognised in the financial statements approximates or equals their carrying amounts. For details on how fair values are calculated for each class of financial instrument refer to Note 2 of the Notes to the financial statements.

(iv) Financial instruments measured at fair value
The financial instruments recognised at fair value in the statements of financial position have been analysed and classified using a fair value hierarchy reflecting the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels:
-
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;
-
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices); and
-
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that is not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
Refer to Note 22 for details regarding fair value disclosures relating to the financial derivative liability.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the members of Greenwing Resources Ltd
Report on the Audit of the Financial Report
Opinion
We have audited the financial report of Greenwing Resources Ltd (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 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 year then ended, and notes to the financial report, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.
In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:
-
(i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2025 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and
-
(ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .
Basis for opinion
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 are independent of the Group in accordance with 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 our audit of the 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 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 4 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.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Accounting for Andes Litio SA transaction including regaining control
| Key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|---|---|
| The Group’s strategic funding arrangement involving Andes Litio SA and NIO Inc., included a Subscription Agreement granting NIO a call option to acquire a 20%–40% interest in Andes Litio SA, along with associated offtake rights. As a result of this arrangement, the Group initially accounted for Andes Litio SA as an equity- accounted joint venture and recognised a derivative liability in respect of NIO’s option. In May 2025, the arrangement concluded with NIO opting not to exercise its call option and relinquishing its voting rights over Andes Litio SA. Consequently, the Group regained control of Andes Litio SA, triggering a change in accounting treatment from equity accounting to full consolidation in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements. The derivative liability previously recognised was also required to be derecognised from the statement of financial position. The transaction involved significant judgement and complexity, particularly in determining whether the change in control should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition. Significant auditor attention was required to evaluate the appropriate measurement of the Group’s interest in Andes Litio SA up until the date of consolidation, including the treatment of capitalised expenditure and foreign exchange losses, and the derecognition of the derivative liability. Given the material impact on the Group’s financial statements and the level of judgement involved, this matter was considered to be a significant audit area. |
Our audit procedures included, but were not limited to the following: • Evaluating the Group’s ongoing accounting treatment of the equity accounted investment in accordance with the applicable Accounting Standards • Selecting and testing a sample of transactions within the joint venture and ensuring accounting policies applied on these transactions are consistent with the Group’s policy • Reviewing the accounting treatment regarding consolidation including the assessment of a business combination versus an asset acquisition • Reviewing the accounting treatment in relation to the premium paid on the investment • Ensuring the derivative liability has been derecognised in accordance with accounting standards • Auditing the disclosures made in the financial statements in relation to the transaction, estimates and judgements made, as well as classification on the statement of financial position. |
Recoverability of development assets
| Key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|---|---|
| As at 30 June 2025, the Group has recognised a significant balance of development assets. The carrying value of development assets is required to be assessed for impairment indicators on an annual basis. This requires significant judgement to be applied by management. |
Our procedures included, amongst others: • Evaluating management’s determination of the CGU’s to ensure they are appropriate, including being at a level no higher than the operating segments of the entity |

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.
==> picture [78 x 30] intentionally omitted <==
| Key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|---|---|
| The Group’s disclosures in respect to development assets, set out the key assumptions for the value-in-use calculations and the impact of possible changes in these assumptions would have on the impairment assessment, is included in note 19. The recoverability of development assets testing was significant to our audit because management’s assessment process, including the determination of cash generating unit (CGU) carrying value and calculation of value-in-use is complex and judgemental. Management’s assessment process involves an extended period of forecasting due to the nature of the project and includes estimates and assumptions relating to market and economic conditions. The impact of inputs used in management’s assessment required significant auditor attention. |
• Obtaining and gaining an understanding of the Group’s value in use model, testing the mathematical accuracy, and critically evaluating management’s methodologies and their key assumptions • Evaluating the Group’s inputs used in the value-in-use calculations including those relating to forecast revenue, total resources, costs, operation start dates and discount rate • Performing sensitivity analysis on the key assumptions in the model. These included, graphite sales price, production costs, production start date and discount rate • Involving our internal Corporate Finance specialists to assess the discount rate applied against comparable market information • Evaluating the adequacy of related disclosures in the financial report. |
Carrying value of exploration and evaluation assets
| Key audit matter | How the matter was addressed in our audit |
|---|---|
| The Group carries exploration and evaluation assets in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditure, as set out in the Note 17. The recoverability of exploration and evaluation is a key audit matter due to: • The significance of the total balance • The level of procedures undertaken to evaluate management’s application of the requirements of AASB 6_Exploration_ for Evaluation of Mineral Resources (‘AASB 6’) in light of any indicators of impairment that may be present. |
Our procedures included, but were not limited to the following: • Obtaining evidence that the Group has valid rights to explore the areas represented by the capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure by obtaining supporting documentation such as exploration licenses and considering whether the Group maintains tenements in good standing • Making enquiries of management with respect to the status of ongoing exploration programs in the respective areas of interest and assessing the Group’s cashflow budget for level of budgeted spend on exploration projects and held discussions with directors of the Group as to their intentions and strategy • Enquiring of management, reviewing ASX announcements and reviewing directors’ minutes to ensure the Group had not decided to discontinue activities in any applicable areas of interest and to assess whether there are any other facts or circumstances that existed to indicate impairment testing was required. |

| Total | 61.9 | 4.5 | 2,781 | 61.9 | 4.5 | 2,781 |
Numbers subject to rounding.
The following summary presents a fair and balanced representation of the information contained within JORC Table 5 (sections 1-3)[7] :
-
The Company holds the Mineral Resources via 100% owned exploitation permit numbers 26670, 25600 and the Loharano renewal. The granted permit (26670and 25600) have rights for 40 years to explore and mine graphitic resources.
-
The mineralization contains large flake graphite mineralized within both the weathered profile (regolith) and underlying crystalline graphitic gneisses (hard rock), broadly coinciding with regional graphite mineralization trends.
-
Diamond and auger drilling have intersected the mineralization, which is distributed broadly within the known mineralization footprint. The mineralization broadly dips to the west at approximately 45° and consists of a broad mineralization profile that continues to depth.
-
25,368 samples from 2,212 auger holes (18,843 meters drilled) and 212 diamond holes (8,555 meters drilled) were prepared, split, and analysed at the in-house Graphmada laboratory, with a representative proportion analysed by an SANAS accredited laboratory in South Africa for Fixed Carbon and Graphitic Carbon respectively, as well as further analysis for Sulphur.
-
The estimate was classified as Measured, Indicated, and Inferred based on augering, diamond drilling, surface mapping, drill hole sample assay results, drill hole logging, assigned density values based on core sample measurements, flake size distribution studies, and nearby mining and processing operations.
-
Grade estimation was completed using the ordinary kriging estimation method and checked using inverse distance weighting to the power of two estimation.
-
A nominal 3% cut-off is supported by statistical analysis of the grade population distribution of the total dataset.

Table 1 Summary Mineral Resource at a 5% ZnEq cut-off
The Mineral Resources remaining comprise material remaining in-situ from the previous mining operations that are potentially viable due to the significantly higher current metals prices.
The Mineral Resource is reported separately as two mining targets: near surface material suitable for open pit mining and the remainder as an underground mining target. The reporting difference is only relevant for underground where all material within 5 m of a previous underground stope is considered sterilised and not reported. This removes from the underground Mineral Resource most material that might be considered unrecoverable as old pillars or that have increased geotechnical risk.
Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for Que River was derived from block model estimates for the N, QR32 and S Lenses and historic polygonal estimates for the main PQ lens. The current estimates applies a 5% ZnEq (zinc equivalent) cut-off that considers the significant value of copper, silver and gold.
At the 5% ZnEq cut-off the Mineral Resource contains a significant endowment of in-situ contained metal with 75 kt Zinc, 10 kt copper, 59 koz gold, 3700 koz silver and 36 kt lead.
% Zinc Equivalent is based on the following formula as defined in the recently announced Mineral Resource is reported at a 5% ZnEq cut-off where: ZnEq = Zn + 0.7 Pb + 2.1 Cu +0.04 Ag + 3.3 Au
Que River is predominantly considered a zinc-lead mine, however considerable value is associated with gold and silver grades as well as some copper which can combine to be as value or more valuable than zinc-lead. Hence a zinc equivalent cut-off is required to ensure value of copper, gold and silver areas are not overlooked.
Rosebery ore processing performs similar to Que River. The published Rosebery combined recovery and payability values (source HKEX:MMG 23 January 2025) provide factors consistent with that expected for a standalone processing Que River operation. High factors of around 6 for Cu and Au grades reflect the relatively high current metal prices for Cu, Au and Ag and generally higher smelter payability. These factors include the data in Table 2 below.
However, toll treatment may not provide the same opportunities as an owner operated processing plant. The combined recovery, concentrate payability and milling cost used by the Company in 2009

for toll treatment at the Rosebery mill were lower as they included processing costs but also flatter payability across the commodities. It is these less optimistic equivalence assumptions and factors that are applied at this stage of the project review are outlined in Table 3 below.

Table 3: Assumptions applied
The total payability adopted at this stage is based on the most conservative option using combined mill cost, smelter returns & charges and mill recovery factors achieved by the Company under toll treatment contract in 2009 during the last phase of mining at Que River with toll treatment at the Rosebery concentrator.
Metal prices assumed this review include the 3 month LME contract price for base metals or last three month Kitco average price for precious metals.
Based on this information it is the Company’s opinion that the elements included in the metal equivalents calculation have a reasonable potential to be recovered and sold.
