MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN

==> picture [106 x 47] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [104 x 110] intentionally omitted <==

Dear Shareholder,

Over the past year, Prodigy Gold has renewed its focus on gold exploration in the Northern Territory. This was highlighted by the relocation of our corporate headquarters to Darwin in

August 2022. We are now based in the juristiction that we work and explore in. This has been a positive step for the company which was highlighted by the Minister for Mining and Industry, the Hon. Nicole Manison, announcing the results of the Round 16 Resourcing the Territory Grants from our Smith Street office in Darwin during May this year. It was at this announcement that Prodigy Gold was awarded two future grants, one for a diamond hole at Tregony and one for a regional groundgravity survey around the Tanami North Project area.

The successful completion of a underwriten renounceable pro rata rights issue (“Rights Issue”) during October 2022, allowed the planning for and execution of exploration works on our strategically important prospects around the Tanami North, Lake Mackay and Buccaneer Project areas. The Company would like to thank its investors for their continued financial support and in particular APAC Resources for sub-underwriting the Rights Issue.

The completion of the Rights Issue provided funds to complete a diamond hole into the Phreaker Prospect at Lake Mackay, which allowed us to complete the sole funding requirements of the re-stated Joint Ventures with IGO. The results of this hole highlighted further base metal mineralisation down plunge of previously reported intercepts at this exciting project.

Prodigy Gold holds its Joint Ventures in very high regard, and continues to work closely with IGO at Lake Mackay, Newmont Corporation at the Monza and Tobruk Projects and Australasian Metals at the Barrow Creek Project. These Joint Ventures are important to Prodigy Gold as they allow us to continue exploring our high ranked exploration targets while maintaining our land position in the significantly prospective Tanami Region. This region hosts one of the world’s best performing gold mines – Newmont Australia’s Tanami Operations.

Recognising the Company’s very large tenement holding in the Tanami Region of the Northern Territory, Prodigy Gold decided to advance the agreement with Stockton Mining on the Old Pirate project and surrounding exploration tenements, which was shareholder approved at the Company’s last Annual General Meeting. This continues to be the right strategic move for the Company. Prodigy Gold is closely working with

Stockton Mining to complete the agreement towards the end of 2023.

Some of the highlights for the year include:

  • Relocation of the head office to Darwin in August 2022;

  • Completion of the Rights Issue raising gross proceeds of $11.65 Million and repayment of a $2.5 Million loan to Mount Sun Investments Limited;

  • Successful diamond drilling into the Phreaker Prospect at Lake Mackay, intersecting a zone of copper, zinc, and silver mineralisation;

  • Completion of sole funding requirements for the re-stated Joint Venture Agreement at Lake Mackay with IGO;

  • Receipt of results of metallurgical testwork on the Buccaneer Deposit, highlighting the potential for CIL extraction;

  • Completion of greenfields drilling at the Boco North Prospect in the Tanami North project area;

  • Approval of co-funding for Tregony diamond drilling and a regional ground gravity geophysical survey by the NT Government; and

  • Newmont completed drilling on our JV titles in close proximity to their Callie operation.

The Company is also pleased to announce that it has completed its Environment, Social and Goverenance (ESG) reporting for the year. This is an important guiding document for the Company moving into the future. The report has been released on the ASX and can be reviewed on our website. On the safety front, it was a great year with no Lost Time Injuries reported for the Company.

It has been a particularly challenging start to the exploration field season this year due to the extended Northern Australian wet season, so the Board would like to thank all our dedicated staff members, for their commitment and work ethic. The flexibility of our staff ensuring the completion of programs while restrictions limited access, was inspiring.

And lastly, and importantly, the Board would like to thank its dedicated shareholders and joint venture partners. With our renewed focus on the development of our highly ranked assets we look forward to reporting future results and continuing the journey of discovery.

EXPLORATION

Review Summary

Prodigy Gold NL (“Prodigy Gold” or the “Company”) shifted exploration strategy during the last year directing its focus to the Tanami North, Lake Mackay and Buccaneer Projects. The Company continues to work closely with its Joint Venture partners, Newmont Exploration Pty Ltd, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Newmot Corporation (NYSE:NEM), IGO Limited (ASX:IGO) and Australasian Metals Limited (ASX:A8G). As part of this shift the Company has re-established the Tregony exploration camp as a base for works completed and to be completed in the Tanami North Project area.

The Company is actively looking at ways to reduce the current project holding costs through the sale of the Old Pirate Project to Stockton Mining as well as looking at ways to divest other non-core projects, including the North Arunta and Reynolds Range Projects, where possible. Prodigy Gold and its Joint Venture partners currently hold around 26,360km[2] (2022: 27,006km[2] ) of land under tenure . The area held under granted tenure is 11,277km[2] with 15,084km[2] held under application.

The 2022-2023 financial year has seen Prodigy Gold focus on extending its current Mineral Resources at Hyperion and Buccaneer and releasing its maiden Tregony Mineral Resource. Prodigy Gold has also continued looking at ways to develop the Buccaneer Mineral Resource through the completion of further testwork, such as the detailed metallurgy testwork on the Buccaneer Deposit as announced in March 2023. Greenfields exploration has advanced on projects like Boco North and the Lake Mackay Gold Project in both, the Northern Territory and Western Australia.

Figure 1 - Sunrise over the Tregony Exploration Camp – June 2023

During the reporting period on-ground exploration continued at the Lake Mackay JV Projects with IGO Limited (ASX: IGO) (“IGO”). This year’s exploration focussed on assessing the results of drilling completed over the previous year on the various gold prospects and also on the diamond hole drilled at the Phreaker Prospect in the current and previous reporting period. While the gold assays showed some encouraging results on the Western Australian tenement the decision was made to relinquish the exploration licence E80/5001 during June 2023. The results for the FY2022 Phreaker diamond hole showed the continuation of the base metal mineralisation at the project and allowed for targeting of a new hole that was drilled in November 2022. The results received highlighted encouraging base metal mineralisation down plunge from previously reported drilling. Prodigy Gold was excited to complete the sole funding requirements of the

restructured Joint Venture agreement with IGO through the completion of these two diamond holes into the Phreaker Prospect.

Other significant on-ground exploration activity completed during the reporting period entailed co-funded RC drilling of the Boco North propsect, located within the Tanami North Project area. The Boco North drilling was aimed at opening up an unexplored greenfields area along the significantly mineralised Suplejack Shear Zone (“SSZ”). Boco North had not been effectively drill tested and was seen as a geochemically blind target due to the presence of an overlying unmineralised cover. The drilling showed a much thicker than expected overlying cover resulting in no holes penetrating through to the underlying prospective Tanami Group rocks, this resulted in the program being curtailed which was supported by no significant results being returned from this program. On completion the rig was mobilised to the Tregony Deposit with drilling commencing in July 2023. Results are pending.

Tanami North Project Area

The Tanami North Project is underlain by sequences belonging to the favourable Tanami Group. It is poorly exposed, with the majority of the geology interpreted from regional magnetic surveys and limited drilling. Localised outcrop that occurs on the Tregony Prospect has been the focus of historic exploration.This Project area is a key strategic area for Prodigy Gold to develop over the coming years with a focus on growing the mineral resource inventory around the Tregony and Hyperion Deposits and to advance some greenfield targets around these Deposits.

Five existing Deposits are known along the Suplejack Shear Zone (“SSZ"), the major structural control of the Project:

  • Groundrush Deposit - 7.7Mt @ 4.3g/t Au for 1.1Moz[1] (50% TAM : 50% NST) located 42km to the south of Tregony;

  • Hyperion Deposit - 4.4Mt @ 2.2g/t Au for 314koz[2] (100% Prodigy Gold) located approximately 18km north of Groundrush;

  • Crusade Deposit - 1.3Mt @ 2.3g/t Au for 94koz[1] (50% TAM : 50% NST ) located 22km to the northeast of Tregony;

  • Ripcord Deposit - 0.75Mt @ 2.1g/t Au for 51koz[1] (50% TAM : 50% NST) located adjacent to the Groundrush Deposit;

  • Tregony Deposit - 1.1Mt @ 1.3g/t Au for 49koz[3] (100% Prodigy Gold) located 11km to the east of the Suplejack Fault and forms part of the Tanami North Project.

Work planned at the Tanami North Project over the next 2 years includes further resource drilling at Tregony and Hyperion, greenfields exploration in and around these Deposits and also at the Boco North Prospect. A gravity geophysical survey is planned over an extensive portion of the project area in the coming 12 months.

Tregony Deposit

The Tregony Project is located on EL31331 in the Tanami North area and falls within the same structural trend that includes the Groundrush (1.1Moz Au), Hyperion (314koz Au), and Crusade (94koz Au) Deposits. Previous prefeasibility studies on a JORC 2004 gold resource have been completed on the project following diamond drilling in 2012. This information is now being used by Prodigy Gold to guide further exploration on the project moving forward. Prodigy Gold historically completed one hole into the Tregony Deposit in 2021, which was included in the recent maiden mineral resource for the project.

The Tregony Deposit consists of what appears to be shallow dipping quartz vein arrays within the Killi Killi Formation with some exceptionally high historic gold grades, including 3m @ 106.3g/t Au, 6m @ 28.7g/t Au, and 10m @ 16.2g/t Au[4] .

Early systematic exploration recorded over the tenement was completed by AngloGold Ashanti (AGA) and Acacia Resources between 1995 – 2000, following up on work (soils, rock chip and limited post hole campaigns) completed by Messenger and Dominion Mining in the early 1990’s. AGA’s strategy involved a first phase of regional soils and/or shallow VAC holes, with anomalous areas quickly followed up with a second phase of shallow RAB drilling combined with several regional stratigraphic traverses. With this strategy they discovered the Tregony Deposit and identified several other prospects.

During FY21, the Company completed an in-house data review, updated the mineralisation model at Tregony and drill tested the Deposit with one diamond hole to confirm the stacked vein model. This geological information, reinforced by updated historical results and the visual gold observed in the diamond hole, demonstrates the potential of the system to extend under shallow sandstone cover, and beneath the shallow RAB drilling.

Using this data review and the drill hole from 2021, a maiden resource estimation was completed by Prodigy Gold and released in February 2023. This resource has highlighted areas requiring further drilling to advance the project, which is planned to be completed in early FY24.

The reported maiden mineral resource for Tregony was in the inferred category and totals[5]

  • 1.44Mt @ 1.16g/t Au for 54.0koz @ 0.6g/t Au lower cut-off

  • 0.61Mt @ 1.71g/t Au for 33.7koz @ 1.0g/t Au lower cut-off

A review of the Tregony mineral resource resulted in a change in the lower cut-off for reporting to match the cut-off used on other deposits. The latest annual mineral resource statement uses a lower cut-off grade of 0.7g/t Au with reported resources for Tregony now at:

  • 1.1Mt @ 1.3g/t Au for 49Koz

On completion of the Boco North program the drill rig mobilised to the Tregony Deposit to drill test the mineralisation, aiming to grow the resource base and add confidence in the recently reported mineral resources.

Boco North Prospect

The Boco North drilling was aimed at opening up an unexplored greenfields area along the significantly mineralised SSZ. Boco North had not been effectively drill tested and was seen as a geochemically blind target due to the presence of an overlying unmineralised cover. The Company completed 9 RC holes for a total of 1,647m on the program, which was cofunded under the NT Government’s Round 15 Resourcing the Territory Grants. The drilling at the Boco North Prospect returned a much thicker than expected overlying cover resulting in no holes penetrating through to the underlying prospective Tanami Group rocks. The program was terminated before drilling all holes originally planned. Results of the Boco North drilling program were released in July with no significant results returned for any of the drilled holes[6] .

The Company will continue to explore in this area of interest on the Boco prospect as well as the Tregony Deposit.

Hyperion Prospect

The Hyperion Project area contains the Hyperion Mineral Resource, which is stated as 4.4Mt @ 2.2g/t Au for 314Koz above a 0.7g/t Au lower cut-off grade[7] . The resource cut-off grade is based on processing at a mill the scale of the historic Central Tanami Processing Plant that is located on the neighboring tenments held by Northern Star and Tanami Gold. The Hyperion Mineral Resource was previously called Suplejack, the name has since been changed at the request of the local community.

The mineralisation at the Hyperion Mineral Resource is associated with a structural break between regional north-south trending thrust faults. At the Hyperion Deposit, this is a shear zone hosted in differentiated dolerite, typically intruded by granitic dykes. The shear zone generally trends at approximately 106 degrees and dips towards the south at 60-80 degrees. The structure is typically between 4m and 13m thick, with an average true width of approximately 6m.

7 ASX: 31 July 2018 Note: This estimate varies immaterially to the 31 July 2018 resource statement due to the use of a Wittle generated open pit shell to constrain the Mineral Resource and a change in lower cut-off grade from 0.8g/t to 0.7g/t Au.

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT – REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

==> picture [106 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

It is planned to complete further RC drilling at the Hyperion Project in the FY24 period with samples used to add confidence in the current mineral resource estimate as well as to provide material for metallurgical testwork on the mineralisation at the Deposit. This will be critical information when looking at the potential for further development of the project moving forward. Some drilling will be used to test areas outside the current mineral resource to attempt to grow the overall endowment of the Deposit.

Buccaneer Resource Project

In August 2023, an updated mineral resource was completed on the Buccaneer Deposit. While not a large amount of new data has been added to the project since the previous model in 2017 this new model has used updated resource domaining, which is supported by the geological understanding of the Deposit. The update also included results of some new diamond holes drilled in 2021.

The updated mineral resource for Buccaneer[8] is in the indicated and inferred categories and totals:

  • At a 0.7g/t Au lower cut off:

  • 3.9Mt @ 1.2g/t Au for 157koz Indicated

  • 5.3Mt @ 1.2g/t Au for 201koz Inferred

==> picture [331 x 301] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 5 Mineral Resource Classification for Buccaneer – Plan view for Domain 1

In March 2023, Prodigy Gold released detailed results of the Buccaneer Project metallurgical testwork program completed by Independent Metallurgical Operations (“IMO”)[9] . A summary of the results includes:

  • Comminution testwork showed that the three composites analysed (oxide, transition and fresh material) are amenable to conventional crushing and grinding processes

  • Gravity gold and cyanide leach testwork returned recoveries of 95.1%, 96.7% and 84.6% for the three composites, respectively with gravity gold recoveries averaging 18.6%

  • fastest kinetics achieved for the oxide and transition composites

  • o low cyanide and lime consumption for each of the oxide, transition and fresh composites

  • Low overall gold recoveries in the column leach testwork showed that heap leaching is not a viable processing option.

The study to evaluate processing and mining scenarios for the Buccaneer Mineral Resource continues, including the assessment of IMO’s recommendations outlined in their technical report. This information will be used in the development of a mining study to determine the most appropriate methodology to advance the project using the latest mineral resource just completed. This will also highlight areas for future drilling and any other testwork required to advance the understanding of the Buccaneer Project.

Aircore drilling is being planned on the project to look at potentially extending the mineral resource as recently defined, with this drilling likely to be completed in late FY24 or early FY25.

Receipt of Exploration Grants – Tanami North Project

The Hon. Nicole Manison – Minister for Mining and Industry, announced the results of the grants program under the Round 16 of the Geophysics and Drilling Collaborations (GDC) program funded by the Resourcing the Territory initiative at Prodigy Gold’s office in Darwin[10] .

==> picture [295 x 368] intentionally omitted <==

Figure 6 Photo of Minister Manison at Prodigy Gold’s Darwin office

Prodigy Gold was the successful recipient of two exploration grants for the Tanami North project area with the NT Government co-contributing a total of $158,148. The first successful application was the Tanami North Regional Scale Gravity Survey covering a large portion of EL9250 that hosts the Hyperion gold deposit and EL31331 that hosts the Tregony gold deposit. The second approved application was for a single diamond core hole into the Tregony gold deposit to provide structural and stratigraphic context to the recently released maiden mineral resource[11] . It is planned to commence these programs in the second half of 2023 depending on the availability of contractors.

Lake Mackay JV Project

Project Background

The Lake Mackay Project is located 400km northwest of Alice Springs, adjacent to the Western Australian border, and has consolidated tenure over the favourable Proterozoic margin between the Aileron and Warumpi Provinces. This area is characterised by a continent-scale geophysical gravity ridge and the Central Australian Suture. The JV partners have demonstrated the emerging potential of the province to host multiple styles of precious and base metal mineralisation.

IGO Limited (“IGO”) commenced activity on the Lake Mackay JV area in 2013. Systematic exploration led to the discovery of gold and base metal mineralisation at Bumblebee in 2015 and Grapple in 2016. Diamond drilling of Grapple in 2017 defined gold and copper mineralisation over 800m of plunge including a result of 11m @ 7.9g/t Au, 20.7g/t Ag, 0.8% Cu,

==> picture [596 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT – REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

==> picture [106 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

0.5% Pb, 1.1% Zn & 0.1% Co in 17GRDD001[12] .

During 2018, IGO completed the $6M earn-in and the JV Project was thereafter funded 70:30. Subsequent drilling has discovered high-grade base metal mineralisation at the Phreaker Prospect (see intercepts quoted later in this report), and bedrock gold mineralisation in RC drilling, including at the Arcee Prospect - 12m @ 3.5g/t Au[13] , and Goldbug Prospect - 16m @ 1.15g/t Au and 4m @ 1.54g/t Au[14] .

Lake Mackay JV (IGO and IGO/Castile) – Agreement Status

During May 2022 IGO and Prodigy Gold executed a deed of excision, transfer and amendment (“Deed”) in relation to the Lake Mackay Agreement. There are now three unincorporated exploration joint venture (“JV”) agreements covering the Lake Mackay Project[15] :

Lake Mackay Gold JV Agreement – covering most of the Gold Tenements

  • transfers tenements EL25146, EL31234, ELA31913 and EL80/5001 (“Gold Tenements”) from the original Lake Mackay Agreement into a new unincorporated exploration JV

  • Following the completion of sole funding obligations of $500,000 of expenditure, Prodigy Gold now owns 70% of this project.

  • Following a prospectivity assessment, WA tenement EL80/5001 has been surrendered.

Castile JV Agreement – covering Gold Tenement EL31794

  • transfers tenement EL31794 (“Gold Tenement”) into a new unincorporated exploration JV between Castile Resources Limited (“Castile”), IGO and Prodigy Gold

  • Prodigy Gold holds a 60% interest, IGO a 26% interest and Castile a 14% interest in the tenement.

Lake Mackay JV Agreement – covering the Base Metal Tenements

  • amends and restates the terms of the original Lake Mackay Agreement and no longer covers the Gold Tenements

  • Prodigy Gold sole funded $850,000 of JV expenditure under this agreement and owns 30% of this project.

Whilst formal notification is pending, IGO advised that it is likely to dilute rather than contribute to exploration programs on all three projects, which will minimally change ownership percentages.

Lake Mackay JV’s – Rehabilitation Status

Rehabilitation work was completed at Lake Mackay with the exception of one hole, which was left open as a future water source.

Lake Mackay Exploration Progress

Phreaker Prospect Diamond Drilling – Base Metal Tenement

The Phreaker Prospect is located within the Lake Mackay JV on EL30731, 42km east of Kintore and 400km west of Alice Springs. The polymetallic (copper-gold-silver) mineralisation at the Phreaker Prospect was initially discovered by IGO using airborne electromagnetic (EM) surveying and follow-up ground EM surveys in 2018 and 2019. Follow-up RC drilling completed at the prospect by IGO in August 2019 confirmed that the mineralised system extends for over 750 metres of strike.

IGO drilled three diamond drill holes at the prospect in 2021. All three holes successfully intercepted high-grade copper (gold-silver) sulphide mineralisation 75m to 430m below previous RC drilling. The best two recorded intersections were in drill hole 21PHDD002[16] :

  • 4.5m @ 3.03% Cu, 1.78g/t Au and 14g/t Ag from 562m; and

  • 17.47m @ 2.13% Cu, 0.21g/t Au and 9g/t Ag from 575.23m.

The Company completed a diamond drilling program at Phreaker during June 2022 with results received during the reporting period. The drilling program aimed to intersect the modelled EM plate down-plunge of the high-grade mineralisation reported in 21PHDD002. Drill hole PRDD2202 was completed to 639.9m, with the hole intersecting the EM plate up-dip and along strike of the high-grade zone, and contained encouraging results including[17] :

  • 5.6m @ 0.23% Cu, 0.35% Zn, 1.2g/t Ag and 0.18g/t Au from 545m;

  • including 0.45m @ 1.15% Cu, 1.08% Zn, 6.0g/t Ag and 0.2g/t Au from 547.25m;

  • 0.4m @ 2.59g/t Au from 368.5m;

  • 1.0m @ 0.54g/t Au from 391m; and

  • 5.7m @ 0.35g/t Au from 396.9m.

The Company subsequently followed up on the drill results of PRDD2202 by drilling one additional diamond core drill hole into the Phreaker prospect. This hole also formed part of the sole funding arrangement of the restructured Joint Venture agreements with IGO.

The results of diamond hole PRDD2203 were returned highlighting further encouraging results of[18] ;

  • 2.3m @ 1.14% Cu, 0.97% Zn, 9.1g/t Ag and 0.11g/t Au from 739.8m;

  • including 0.3m @ 5.65% Cu, 3.64% Zn, 45.0g/t Ag and 0.70g/t Au from 741.5m;

  • 3.3m @ 0.42% Cu, 0.57% Zn, 3.7g/t Ag, and 0.26 g/t Au from 697m; and

  • 3.5m @ 0.57% Cu, 0.34% Zn and 3.8g/t Ag from 718.5m.

PRDD2203 completed the sole funding requirement under the restructured Joint Venture Agreements with IGO, resulting in Prodigy Gold consolidating its interest in the Lake Mackay Gold Joint Venture at 70%.

Drilling was designed to test at depth, beneath coherent gold-in-soil anomalies generated from previous soil sampling by IGO. The drill targets had similar gold-in-soil anomalies to those that led to the discovery of the nearby Arcee and Goldbug prospects within the project area.

Drill holes located on EL80/5001 intersected intervals of low-grade gold mineralisation with best intervals reported as[20]

  • 16m @ 0.39g/t Au, 0.13% Cu and 1.0g/t Ag from 84m in SGRC2007;

  • including 4m @ 0.54g/t Au, 0.39% Cu and 2.8g/t Ag from 84m;

  • 4m @ 0.47g/t Au from 84m in SGRC2208; and

  • 4m @ 0.74g/t Au from surface in RCRC2201.

While Prodigy Gold was encouraged by these initial results representing the first drilling undertaken on these gold targets, the decision was made to relinquish WA exploration licence E80/5001 in June 2023, due to better gold results elsewhere on the project.

Future Work

Any future works on the JV projects will require a new Mine Management Plan to be submitted and approved by the NT Department of Industry, Tourism and Trade (“DITT”) and clearances from the Traditional Owners via the Central Land Council will need to be received.

It is unlikely that any on-ground work will commence on this project prior to the end of the 2023/2024 wet season, however further assessments will be undertaken and programs designed.

Tobruk JV and Monza JV (Newmont)

Tobruk Exploration

Newmont met its minimum expenditure commitment of $2,500,000 within the specified four-year timeframe during the reporting period.

  • The RC drilling program completed on the Niffler project during Q2 2022, comprised eight drillholes (NFRC001 – NFRC008), along one northwest trending traverse for a total of 848m.

  • 1m samples were collected off the RC rig, with these made into 4m composite samples at ALS and analysed for gold by fire assay. Every fifth 1m sample was assayed for multi-element analysis (MEMS61).

  • The assay results were received during the reporting period and the evaluation of results is on-going. No significant results were returned.

  • A district Magnetotellurics (“MT”) survey was completed during the reporting period.

  • The MT survey comprised one generally northeast trending line through the centre of the Tobruk Project area.

  • MT readings were collected at 1,000m station spacing, for a total of 34-line kilometres within the Tobruk Project area.

  • The 3D modelling results of the Magnetotelluric (MT) survey data remain subject to evaluation.

Monza Exploration

  • A surface geochemical survey utilising Newmont’s proprietary Deep Sensing Geochemistry (“DSG”) technique was undertaken to gain coverage across the Project area and target a number of geophysical anomalies.

  • The survey had been designed at various spacing including 1km x 1km to provide broad coverage across the Project area, with a more detailed survey completed at a nominal spacing of 500m x 500m at selected locations.

  • A total of 1,513 survey points were collected during the year.

  • Results from the 877 samples collected in the first half of the financial year have highlighted a number of localised anomalous responses.

  • Results for the remaining 636 samples collected in the second half of the reporting period are pending.

  • A Horizontal to Vertical component Spectral Ratio (“HVSR”) passive seismic survey was carried out coincidently with the surface geochemical survey during the reporting period. Results are pending.

Future Work

Target generation is continuing on the Tobruk and Monza Projects.

A ground gravity survey at Newmont’s Officer Hill project is scheduled in the September quarter 2023; a small portion of this survey extends onto the Tobruk JV.

Barrow Creek JV (Australasian Metals) - 10% Prodigy Gold

As announced in January 2022, Prodigy Gold finalised the sale of 90% of the Barrow Creek Project to Australasian Metals (A8G)[21] . During the reporting period A8G identified high-grade tantalum plus tin mineralisation at the Barrow Creek Lithium Project in the prospective Northern Arunta pegmatite province, Northern Territory[22] . Highlights of this work are:

  • Strong Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum (“LCT”) pegmatite signatures have been confirmed through geochemical assays

  • 1018ppm and 554ppm tantalum returned from ongoing rock chip sampling at EL28515

  • Several rock chips on EL29724 with elevated lithium up to 0.26% of lithium oxide, highlight the lithium mineralisation potential of this tenement

  • Follow up soil sampling has been completed with no significant results reported

Future Work

A8G is working towards updating their land access agreement with the new local station owners for a planned RAB drilling program.

Old Pirate Project and Tanami Exploration Project

During the reporting period the Company continued to work with public company Stockton Mining Limited (“Stockton”) on the divestment of the Company’s Old Pirate Gold Project and 23 surrounding exploration tenements located in the Tanami Region of the Northern Territory[23] .

During the first half of the reporting period two variations were announced, the first[24] replacing the Contingent Consideration on two Exploration Lease Applications (EL30944 and EL30814) with a net smelter royalty of 2.5% payable on any minerals recovered from these titles. Additionally, adjustments were made to holding costs allocations moving forward due to the extension of the agreement to the end of 2022.

The second variation extended the agreement[25] to 30 June 2023, requiring Stockton to pay the ‘Pre-IPO payment’ (under escrow) of $750,000 to Prodigy Gold within 5 business days of Prodigy Gold obtaining shareholder approval for the transaction in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 11.4. This variation also considered how the holding costs would be shared between the Company and Stockton during this extension particularly in relation to the Mining Leases. Prodigy Gold received shareholder approval for the transaction at the Company’s AGM held in November 2022.

During the final quarter of the reporting period a further variation to the agreement[26] was announced where the Company and Stockton agreed to extend the end date of the transaction, as well as the payment conditions for holding costs, from 30 June 2023 to 30 November 2023. It is noted that the ‘Pre-IPO payment’ of $750,000 was received by the Company on 1 May 2023.

Notes :

  • All Mineral Resources are reported in accordance with the 2012 JORC Code

  • Mineral Resource estimates are not precise calculations, being dependent on the interpretation of limited information on the location, shape and continuity of the occurrence and on the available sampling results. The quantities contained in the above table have been rounded to two significant figures to reflect the relative uncertainty of the estimate for tonnes and grade. Rounding may cause values in the table to appear to have errors.

  • Authors are noted as 1 – Prodigy Gold (Mark Edwards): 2 – Optiro Pty Ltd: 3 – CSA Global

  • Tonnes are reported as dry metric tonnes

  • The are no Ore Reserves reported for any of Prodigy Gold’s projects

  • All projects are owned 100% by Prodigy Gold

  • The Old Pirate project is currently part of a sales agreement with public company Stockton Mining Limited. As this sale is still subject to several conditions precedent the Old Pirate Mineral Resources are still reported as part of Prodigy Gold’s inventory.

  • Buccaneer, Tregony and Hyperion Mineral Resources are determined using an optimised pit shell with these parameters;

  • Gold price of A$2,960/oz which represents a 120% factoring of the 3-year forecast of gold price based on data from the Energy & Metals Consensus Forecast at US$1,832/oz and exchange rate of $0.74 dated June 2023.

  • Mining, processing and G&A costs of around $56/ore tonne mined

  • Recoveries have been used specific for each project of;

    • Buccaneer – 95.1% for oxide, 96.7% transitional and 84.6% for fresh based on metallurgical testwork completed by metallurgical consultants IMO Pty Ltd in 2023[28]

    • Tregony - 95% for oxide and 90% for transitional and fresh based on historic metallurgical testwork performed by Metcom Laboratories for Acacia Resources

    • Hyperion - 95% for oxide and 90% for transitional and fresh based on historic metallurgical testwork performed at Tregony, while no specific studies have been completed at Hyperion the Tregony Deposit is in close proximity to Hyperion so it is deemed appropriate to use these results.

  • Pit wall angles of 45[o] in oxide and 39[o] in fresh and transitional are based on reported work completed by Tanami Gold[29 ] and is seen as being appropriate for use at Tregony and Hyperion due to the proximity of the deposits. Wall angles at Buccaneer 45[o] in oxide and 39[o] in fresh and transitional are based on geotechnical work completed on the 2021 diamond drilling.

MANAGING DIRECTOR’S REPORT – REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

==> picture [106 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

Tenement Management

The total area of 26,360km[2] (2022: 27,006km[2] ) held under tenure by Prodigy Gold and its joint venture partners has decreased during the financial year. The area held under tenure is 11,277km[2] with 15,084km[2] held under application.

To address the costs associated with maintaining such a large land holding and to better focus exploration activities, the Company continues to actively seek to reduce its tenure costs through joint venture and divestment.

A map showing the location of the Company’s current tenement holding is presented in Figure 2 of the review of operations report and a complete list of tenements follows this report.

CORPORATE

Change of Registered Office and Principal Place of Business

During August 2022, Prodigy Gold moved its Registered Office and Principal Place of Business to Level 1, 67 Smith Street Darwin NT 0800[34] .

Capital Structure

During the year, the Company completed an underwritten two for one renounceable pro rate rights issue at a price of $0.01 raising gross proceeds of approximately $11.65 million (before costs and expenses)[35] . The Company issued a total of 1,165,255,212 shares on completion of the raising.

Following shareholder approval at the Company’s AGM held on 29 November 2022, the Company issued 2 Million unlisted options at an exercise price of $0.038 with an expiry date of 1 May 2026 to managing director Mark Edwards.

A total of 3,225,000 unlisted options with a zero exercise price were exercised by employees during the financial year. All outstanding unvested options, following the satisfaction of retention and change of control vesting conditions, vested during the financial year.

As at 30 June 2023, Prodigy Gold had a total of 1,751,107,818 shares and 5,500,000 unlisted options on issue.

Substantial Shareholders

Following the completion of the rights issue, IGO Limited and Jayleaf Holdings ceased to be substantial holders due to dilution.

APAC Resources Limited (“APAC”) and Allied Properties Investments (1) Company Limited increased their holding in Prodigy Gold to 871,681,907 shares, which at 30 June 2023 amounts to a voting power of 49.78% (2022: 19.83%). APAC now considers Prodigy Gold a controlled entity of APAC and consolidates Prodigy Gold’s results for their reporting purposes.

Jetosea Pty Ltd, lodged for the first time substantial holder notices during the year and held a voting power of 6.26% as at 30 June 2023.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)

This Remuneration Report outlines the Director’s and the Group’s key management personnel remuneration arrangements in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations. For the purposes of this report, key management personnel of the Group are defined as those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the major activities of the Company and the Group, directly or indirectly, including any Director (whether executive or otherwise) of the Group.

Voting at the Company’s 2022 Annual General Meeting

The Company received 0.52% (2021: 49.15%) of votes against its remuneration report for the 2022 financial year at the 2022 AGM. The resolution was passed (2021: not passed), as more than 75% of the votes were cast in favor of the resolution.

Remuneration Principles

Remuneration levels are set with the objective of attracting and retaining appropriately qualified and experienced staff. Remuneration packages are structured to recognise, encourage and reward improved performance and business growth, balanced between short-term and long-term goals. Benchmarking is undertaken where considered appropriate to ensure remuneration packages are competitively positioned in the market.

Non-Executive Director Remuneration

Non-Executive Directors’ fees are set by the Board within the maximum aggregate amount of fees approved by shareholders at a general meeting. Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to retirement benefits other than statutory superannuation or other statutory required benefits. The remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is fixed for each individual Director taking into account market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment, responsibilities and accountability.

The available Non-Executive Directors’ fees pool is currently $400,000. As at 30 June 2023 the Company utilised $141,117 (2022: $120,000) of the pool.

Performance evaluations of the Board are usually undertaken annually with a view to comparing the performance of the Board and Directors against their relevant Charters and their interactions with and performance of management. A internal self-assessment of the Board’s performance for the year was finalised during June 2023.

Key Management Personnel Remuneration including the Managing Director

The key management personnel remuneration framework has three components and the combination of these comprise the key management personnel’s total remuneration:

  • Base salary and benefits

  • Short-term incentives at the Board’s discretion

  • Long-term incentives at the Board’s discretion

Base Salary and Benefits

Executive Directors, key management personnel and employees are offered a fixed base salary and benefits. Base salary and benefits are usually reviewed every year to ensure the employee’s remuneration is competitive with the market. Employment contracts do not guarantee increases in base salary and benefits. The Executive Directors, key management personnel and employees receive the superannuation guarantee contribution required by the government, which was 10.5% during the reporting period, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. Other benefits include personal accident (working directors) insurance and other fringe benefits.

Use of Remuneration Consultants

Due to the size of the Company’s operations, the Company has not engaged remuneration consultants to review and measure its remuneration policy and strategy. However, the Board reviews remuneration strategy periodically and, if required, will engage remunertion consultants in the future to assits with this process.

31

Prodigy Gold Annual Report 2023

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

Short-Term Incentives

The objective of short-term incentives is to align the interests of Executive Directors, key management personnel and employees with those of the shareholders through the payment of short-term incentives linked to pre-agreed targets. The targets include, where appropriate meeting budget forecasts, occupational health and safety measures, relationship management, exploration success, staff retention, compliance and formulating company strategies. Short-term incentives are designed to incentivise and reward individual contribution to achieving overall performance. No discretionary short-term incentive cash bonuses have been granted during the year, or the preceding six years.

Long-Term Incentives

All long-term and equity incentives must be linked to predetermined performance and/or continuity criteria. Long-term incentives are designed to align Executive Directors, key management personnel and employee’s interest with the Company’s longer term objectives of growth in market capitalisation, earnings per share, share performance compared to peer companies, exploration and strategic success. The Board may exercise its discretion in relation to approving incentives, including equity participation. The policy is designed to attract high calibre key management personnel and reward them for performance. Key management personnel are also entitled to participate in employee share or option arrangements. No discretionary long-term incentive cash bonuses have been granted during the year. Executive management received options during the financial year, with details provided in Note 17, and prior year options all vested during the financial year due to a change of control.

Performance Evaluation

There was no performance based cash remuneration paid during the year but the Company may in future grant, as part of each Executive Director and key management personnel’s remuneration package, a performance-based component, consisting of cash bonuses and/or incentives, including equity participation (refer to Note 17), linked to the achievement of key performance indicators (KPIs) and taking into account experience, qualifications and length of service. No performance based cash remuneration has been granted during the year, or the preceding six years.

During the financial year, the Company paid an insurance premium in respect of a contract insuring the Directors and executive officers of the Company and its related entities against a liability incurred as such a Director or executive officer to the extent permitted by the Corporations Law. The contract of insurance prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.

The Company has not otherwise, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify an officer of the Company or any of its related entities against a liability incurred by such an officer.

Proceeding on Behalf of the Company

No person has applied to the Court under Section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of the Company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the Company is a party, for the purpose of taking responsibility on behalf of the Company for all or part of those proceedings.

  • none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants .

NOTE 4: INCOME TAX EXPENSE cont’d

Accounting Policy

Income taxes

Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements.

Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred tax assets are not brought to account unless realisation of the asset is probable. Deferred tax assets in relation to tax losses are not brought to account unless it is probable that the benefit will be utilised.

Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

Tax consolidation legislation

Prodigy Gold NL and its wholly-owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation. The Parent Entity, Prodigy Gold NL, and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a stand-alone taxpayer in its own right.

Accounting estimates and judgements

Income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in Australia. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group estimates its tax liabilities based on the Group’s understanding of the tax law. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made.

Accounting estimates and judgements

The Group’s other receivables and financial assets were subject an assessment under AASB 9 as at 30 June 2023. The assessment took into account the likelihood of an impairment event occurring in the future for Prodigy Gold’s debtors and other debtor. This assumption includes the assessment of the ability of other debtors to pay.

A multitude of tenements for the Bonanza area of interest are subject to a sales agreement with Stockton Mining signed in April 2022. As part of the agreement various fixed assets will be transferred to Stockton Mining. Until such time as the agreement is completed and all conditions precedent have been fulfilled, the written down value of these assets has been classified to current assets held for sale in accordance with AASB 5.

On completion of the transaction with Stockton Mining the environmental liabilities of the Group are due to reduce by $1,410,995 and a total amount of $1,726,952 of restricted cash held in term deposits is due to become unrestricted cash.

Accounting Policy

Current and non-current classification assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and noncurrent classification.

The Company classifies an asset as current available for sale assets when it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold and is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period.

Accounting Policy

Acquired exploration and evaluation assets are carried at acquisition value less any subsequent impairment. All exploration and evaluation expenditure, subsequent to initial acquisition, is expensed until the Directors conclude that the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a Mineral Resource are demonstrable and that future economic benefits are probable. In making this determination, the Directors consider the extent of exploration, the proximity to existing mine or development properties as well as the degree of confidence in the mineral resource.

No amortisation is charged during the exploration and evaluation phase. Amortisation is charged upon commencement of commercial production. Exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment triggers annually and if there is an indicator of impairment under AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources , the area of interest is tested for impairment under AASB 136 Impairment of Assets . Upon establishment of commercially viable mineral resources, exploration and evaluation assets are tested for impairment.

Accounting estimates and judgements

The Group undertook an assessment for impairment triggers of its exploration assets. Some non-core tenements were impaired in accordance with AASB 6 due to the Group not intending to undertake further exploration on the tenements and divestment efforts to date not resulting in any serious offers.

The balances of the exploration assets as at 30 June 2023 are considered to be recoverable on the basis that the Group holds rights to tenure and has undertaken, and will continue to undertake, significant exploration on the remaining exploration assets. Following this assessment, the Group recognised an impairment charge to exploration and evaluation expenditure totaling $556,492 (2022: $1,086,232) and for the Stockton Mining transaction totaling NIL (2022: $578,965).

Long-term environmental obligations are based on the Group's environmental management plans, in compliance with current environmental and regulatory requirements. Full provision is made based on the value of the estimated cost of restoring the environmental disturbance that has occurred up to the reporting date. The restoration provision relates to exploration, evaluation and development expenditure and rehabilitation relating to the mining lease.

The estimated costs of rehabilitation are reviewed annually and adjusted as appropriate for changes in legislation, technology or other circumstances. Cost estimates are not reduced by the potential proceeds from the sale of assets.

Rehabilitation obligation

The Group estimates the future rehabilitation costs of the site and exploration locations taking into consideration facts and circumstances available at statement of financial position date. A provision has been recognised for the cost to be incurred for the restoration of mine and exploration sites based on the estimated cost. The estimated cost is determined to be the equivalent to the bonds provided to the relevant government departments, reduced by restoration work completed and then increased by a correction factor. The bonds provided are calculated by the government by allocating rehabilitation cost to activities proposed in a mine management plan submitted to the department. Restoration work is completed on an ongoing basis.

1) Conversion of employee share options to shares on exercise at a zero exercise price

Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on the winding up of the Company in proportion to the number of and amounts paid on the shares held. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital.

(b) Options

The number of unlisted options of the Company as at 30 June 2023 is 5,500,000 (2022: 6,725,000). For further details refer to Note 17.

Accounting Policy

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options for the acquisition of a business are not included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.

If the entity re-acquires its own equity instruments, for example as the result of a share buy-back, those instruments are deducted from equity and the associated shares are cancelled. No gain or loss is recognised in the profit or loss and the consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is recognised directly in equity.

These amounts are accounting accruals required under accounting standards and have not actually been paid during the year, nor do they reflect the benefit (if any) that may ultimately be received.

Refer to Note 17 to the financial statements for more information on options provided as part of remuneration to the Directors, key management personnel and employees.

NOTE 14: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group.

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the risk management framework. Risk management is addressed within an evaluative process at Board meetings.

Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.

Prodigy Gold Annual Report 2023

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023

NOTE 14: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT cont’d

Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Group is subject to certain financing arrangement covenants, and meeting these is given priority in all capital risk management decisions. There have been no events of default on the financing arrangements during the financial year.

Market Risk - Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk for the Group is considered to be minimal. The Group had no material interest attracting debts, other than the borrowings, at 30 June 2022 which were repaid during October 2022. Assets are managed with a mixture of short term and at call investments. All other receivables are non-interest bearing.

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to the Group’s cash and cash equivalents as detailed in the table below. A sensitivity analysis has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates at reporting date with the stipulated change taking place at the beginning of the financial year and held constant throughout the reporting period. A 100 basis point increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the possible change in interest rates.

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities, is as follows:

NOTE 14: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT cont’d

Based on the financial instruments held at 30 June 2023, should the interest rate weaken/strengthen by 100 basis points against the effective interest rate with all other variables held constant, post-tax loss for the year would have been $60,528 higher/$60,528 lower (2022: $23,953 higher/$23,953 lower).

Credit Risk

Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. Credit risk is a risk of financial loss if the Group’s counterparties are failing to discharge their obligation in respect to the Group’s financial instruments held in those counterparties. Credit risk mainly arises from cash, cash equivalents, deposits with banks and receivables. The Group deposits its fund only with prudent banks with the minimum rating of “A”, and the management believes they are fully recoverable from the banks when due. The Group has provided for a total of NIL (2022: NIL) for past due receivables.

Credit risk further arises in relation to financial guarantees given to certain parties (see Note 16 for details). The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of the financial assets as summarised in the table below.

Liquidity Risk

The Group has prudent liquidity risk management which includes maintaining sufficient funds to meet operational and exploration expenditure when they are due for payment, and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed fund sources. The Group and Parent Entity manage liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecasts and actual cash flows.

The Directors of the Group place high importance on capital raising strategies and investor relations. Strategies pursued include road shows, company presentation to fund managers and sophisticated investors and consideration of strategic partnerships.

Environmental

The Group provides for all known environmental liabilities. While the Directors believe that, based upon current information, its current provisions for the environmental rehabilitation are adequate, there can be no assurance that material new provisions will not be required as a result of new information or regulatory requirements with respect to known sites or identification of new remedial obligations at other sites.

Bank guarantees totaling $2,275,504 (2022: $2,275,504) have been provided. Term deposits of $2,275,504 (2022: $2,275,504) and a cash deposit of $93,111 (2022: $128,894) with the Department of Industry, Tourism and Trade – Northern Territory secure these guarantees. Per Note 11 a restoration provision of $1,523,923 (2022: $1,563,660) has been recognised for all known required restoration costs.

NOTE 17: SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS

The fair value of all Zepos and Options subject to non-market conditions at grant date were determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the anticipated vesting period, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying Zepos and Options, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the Zepos and Options.

ASX LR10.15.11 Statement

The Group has provided details of all securities issued under the Employee Share Option Plan in this annual report relating to the period in which they were issued. Shareholder approval for the issue of securities to Directors, associates and their related parties was obtained under Listing Rules 10.14. Any additional persons covered by Listing Rule 10.14 who become entitled to participate in an issue of securities under the Employee Share Option Plan after the resolution is approved and who were not named in the notice of meeting will not participate until approval is obtained under Listing Rule 10.14.

Options Exercisable at 145% of 5-day VWAP’s (“Option”)

During the reporting period, the Group issued 2,000,000 Options to the managing director following shareholder approval at the AGM held on 29 November 2022. The exercise price of the Options is to be calculated at a premium of 145% to the 5 day VWAP of Prodigy Gold’s share price immediately prior to 8 March 2022. The Options vested on the grant date.

During the period $6,658 of expense was recorded relating to these key management personnel options.

During the period an additional $48,779 (2022: $117,443) of expense was recorded relating to historical employee options and an amount of $118,008 (2022: $573,858) was recycled through retained earnings following the exercise of options.

Accounting estimates and judgements

Share-based payments subject to non-market conditions are determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The model takes into account the exercise price, the anticipated vesting period of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying option, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

When estimating the fair value of the options at measurement date, the Group adjusts the number of equity instruments included in the measurement of the transaction amount so that ultimately the amount recognised is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest. The Group uses the best available estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest at the end of each reporting period.

(a) Basis of Preparation

These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board, Australian Accounting Interpretations and the Corporations Act 2001 . Prodigy Gold NL is a for-profit entity domiciled in Australia for the purpose of preparing the financial statements. The principal accounting policies not reported elsewhere and adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Compliance with AASB

The financial statement of Prodigy Gold NL also complies with Australian Accounting Standards (AASB) as issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB).

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2023

NOTE 25: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - not reported elsewhere cont’d

Historical cost convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The Company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to 'rounding-off'. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest dollar.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted in Australia requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the economic entity’s accounting policies. Refer to Note 4 (Income Tax Expense), Note 8 (Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure) and Note 11 (Provisions).

Financial statement presentation

In accordance to the Corporations Act 2001 , there are no separate financial statements for Prodigy Gold NL as an individual entity presented. However, limited financial information for Prodigy Gold NL as an individual entity is included in Note 22.

Going concern

This report has been prepared on the going concern basis, which contemplates the continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company incurred a loss after tax of $5,218,298 (2022: $7,620,360) and experienced net cash outflows from operating activities of $4,378,425 (2022: $6,420,406).

The ability of the group to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Group being able to raise additional funds as required to meet ongoing and budgeted exploration commitments and for working capital. The Directors believe that they will be able to raise additional capital as required. The Directors believe that the Group will continue as a going concern.

(b) Principles of Consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all controlled entities of Prodigy Gold NL as at 30 June 2023 and the results of all controlled entities for the year then ended.

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases. The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

(c) New accounting standards and interpretations

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issues by the Accounting Standards Board (AASB) that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

The Group has not elected to early adopt any new standards or amendments during the current financial year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the members of Prodigy Gold NL

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Prodigy Gold NL (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2023, 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 a summary of significant accounting policies 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 2023 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.

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.

BDO Audit (WA) Pty Ltd ABN 79 112 284 787 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO Australia Ltd ABN 77 050 110 275, an Australian company limited by guarantee.

Recoverability of Exploration and Evaluation Expenditure

Key audit matter As disclosed in Note 8 of the financial report, the carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure represents a significant asset of the Group. Refer to Note 8 of the financial report for a description of the accounting policy and significant judgements applied to capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure.

In accordance with AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources (“AASB 6”), the recoverability of exploration and evaluation expenditure requires significant judgement by management in determining whether there are any facts or circumstances that exist to suggest that the carrying amount of this asset may exceed its recoverable amount. As a result, this is considered a key audit matter.

How the matter was addressed in our audit Our procedures included, but were not limited to:

  • Obtaining a schedule of the areas of interest held by the Group and assessing whether the rights to tenure of those areas of interest remained current at balance date;

  • Assessing the ability to finance any planned future exploration and evaluation activity;

  • Considering the status of the ongoing exploration programmes in the respective areas of interest by holding discussions with management, and reviewing the Group’s exploration budgets, ASX announcements and directors’ minutes;

  • Considering whether any areas of interest had reached a stage where a reasonable assessment of economically recoverable reserves existed;

  • Evaluating management’s support and calculations for the impairment expense of $556,492 by checking:

  • The allocation of the expenditure across the relevant tenements

  • The mathematical accuracy of the amount written down; and

  • Assessing the adequacy of the related disclosures in Note 8 of the financial report.

Other information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 30 June 2023, but does not include the financial report and the auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website (http://www.auasb.gov.au/Home.aspx) at:
