The Company has based such statements on its current expectations and projections about future events and trends that it believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Such forward-looking statements involve and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company and/or its subsidiaries to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Such factors include, among others, regulatory developments in the United States, Australia and other jurisdictions, the continuation of the Company’s partnership with the Research Group of Dr. Mark Obrovac at Dalhousie University for the development of the Company’s technology, the Company’s ability to scale-up production of its anode or cathode materials and the Company’s ability to attract and retain key management and technology personnel.

In May 2019, the US announced an increase on Chinese graphite import tariffs as well as other materials from 10% to 25%. China responded by introducing 10% import tariff on flake graphite and synthetic graphite.
Congress proposed new legislation in July 2020 that would identify critical minerals, ensure timely surveying of domestic deposits, cut down on unnecessary permitting delays to produce them, and invest in R&D of alternatives. Synthetic graphite was specifically identified as a critical mineral.
President Biden’s currently proposed $1.7bn infrastructure plan includes significant support for the EV industry with funding to provide further support and investment in the domestic supply chain for raw materials, parts, and factory retooling as well as to support American workers to make batteries and EVs. It also contains funds to support the target of achieving 500k charging stations nationwide by 2030.

NOVONIX DTA Key Differentiating Features
-
During battery operation, there can be substantial changes to the liquid electrolyte. NOVONIX DTA System utilizes an in-situ, nondestructive technique to measure and monitor the evolution of liquid electrolytes over the lifetime of a battery
-
The lithium-ion DTA system has the ability to quantify reactions in a non-destructive manner to monitor and understand battery failure. It is an integral part of monitoring how each liquid electrolyte has evolved during the lifetime of a battery
Measurements can be performed throughout the lifetime of a lithium-ion cell and users can better understand the electrolyte evolution and can make informed conclusions about the state of health of the battery
-
’s Differential Thermal Analysis (“DTA”) System equips users with the ability to reliably measure battery performance to make informed decisions on the optimal lithium ion battery chemistries for specific applications
