June Quarter 2021 Activities Report and Appendix 4C

Range International Limited ('Range' or 'Company'), manufacturer of Re>Pal™ 'zero-waste', recycled plastic pallets, presents its Quarterly Activities Report and Appendix 4C for the quarter ended 30 June 2021.

JUNE QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS 2021

• Sales orders increased 48% over the last quarter.
• Signed new EasyPay 5-year rental agreement with Unilever Philippines for 8,000 HD pallets
• Shipped 4,230 EasyPay rental Pallets to Unilever and Mondelez in Philippines
• Completed grant funding agreement for over US85k with Nestle for purchase of factory waste processing equipment and trucks.
• Signed Supply Agreement with PT Aalborg for raw material supply.

The June quarter saw Re>Pal further increase sales orders with existing customers placing repeat orders and new customers using our products. It also saw the shipment of our first pallets under the new 5-year rental contracts in the Philippines to Unilever and Mondelez which opens a new longerterm stable income stream for the business with counterparties with strong credit, and scope for future rentals at higher pallet prices.

Operating conditions in the quarter have presented difficulties with material supply issues mainly due to the on-going Covid-19 restrictions in Indonesia limiting access to waste banks. We have established new supply contracts with Jakarta-based businesses to diversify and secure our source of raw materials. Through the quarter we have engaged in senior executive conversations with TetraPak, with the aim of increasing our supply of PolyAl and establishing new supply lines for this material. We are hopeful of additional PolyAl supply in this coming quarter. In the factory we have experienced sporadic and unpredictable waste processing equipment breakdowns which has affected output. As a result, we have further tightened maintenance programmes to reduce breakdowns. The installation of new and more efficient washing line equipment in Quarter 3 will effectively double our output capacity. We believe that this will help improve our margins due to better factory utilisation; margin improvement is a major focus area in Quarter 3 as we aim to see stability in supply lines. This does assume that the situation with Covid-19 across Indonesia does not see a worsening of current lockdowns or the supply issues.

FINANCIAL UPDATE

Revenue

While revenue decreased in the June quarter it should be noted that 34% of production was switched to fulfill the rental pallet contract obligations, with 4,230 pcs of HD1201 being delivered to Unilever and Modelez in the Philippines as their purchase orders commenced. The HD1210 is our heaviest pallet using the most recycled plastic.

As investors would be aware, May 2021 was a shorter working month because of religious holidays in Indonesia, and as mentioned above there were material supply issues due to Covid-19 restrictions causing some shortfalls from waste suppliers. These factors coupled with equipment breakdowns caused a fall in production for the June quarter which adversely affected revenue in the quarter.

Revenue and cash flow in the immediate short-term will suffer while we produce an additional 7,020 pallets for the rental contract obligations with Unilever and Mondelez.

As of the date of this release, the factory's production issues have been resolved, production is again increasing. We are trying to produce as many of the pallet back-orders to help offset the revenue short fall while also manufacturing the rental pallets above. As of the date of this release, we have 40,598 pallets on backorder, valued at over US$480k, the majority of which we plan to ship over the coming quarter on the basis that there are no further production or Covid-19 issues. Invoicing happens once pallets are delivered. Investors will note that revenue for the half-year ended 30 June 2020 was US$567k, compared to US$846k for the current half-year ended 30 June 2021. The Board and management is are naturally disappointed at the Q2 revenue figure and are working to see the billing as strong as possible in this coming quarter.

Pallets Orders, Shipments and Receipts

Sales orders continue to improve with significant growth over the same period last year and the previous quarter. This sales growth is expected to continue with numerous new and existing clients looking to expand their pallet purchases. Given the disruption in supply lines, working from home and Covid-19 lockdown restrictions across Indonesia we believe that this is a solid achievement. However, we also understand the focus needs to be on margins as well as sales and that we need to see an improvement in utilisation for the margin to show up in the bottom-line.

Pallets shipped in the quarter decreased due to the reasons explained above. While the coming quarter will continue to be challenging, with the unpredictability of Covid-19, we are planning to further increase production through Q3 and Q4.

Cash Burn

Total cash burn for Q2 was US$482k. While this was a decrease on the previous quarter of US$637k, the cash burn was significantly higher than corresponding period last year (Q2 2020 US$299k). As explained, this was mainly due to the production of rental pallets at a cost of US$207k and outages causing production and invoicing delays. Further major areas of cash outlay in the quarter contributing to this 'burn' were capital expenditure areas of US$61k on the new HDX pallet mold, the pallet welder, and the friction washers to increase factory output and improve margins. And, this was coupled with a low pallets shipped number as explained (religious holidays, unforeseen outages & Covid-19) and the lower upfront revenue from the rental model. So it was a challenging quarter for cash.

Cash burn, utilisation and margins are a significant area of focus for the Board.

As at the date of this release, accounts receivable are US$165k. Except for a single account valued at US$12k we do foresee any problems collecting these monies. This is an improvement on last quarter where we had outstanding accounts receivables of US$450k.

SALES UPDATE

As announced on 19 July 2021, Re>Pal has received further significant orders from PT Unilever Oleochemical (UOI). UOI is an excellent Re>Pal customer and wishes to expand their business further with us. We are currently completing their supplier audit (USQS) and hope to successfully complete this by the end of the coming quarter. After which point it is likely that UOI will sign a multi-yearsupply contract with Re>Pal, we will update the market accordingly.

Successful completion of the Unilever USQS Audit is vitally important as it allows Re>Pal to sell to other Unilever entities. Given Unilever's intent to choose sustainable suppliers and to incorporate their plastic waste into the production of their pallets, we believe that this positions Re>Pal as a potential key supplier to Unilever. At the time of writing, our recycling initiative for client waste-topallets programme with Unilever Indonesia Tbk is ongoing and testing has switched focus from the

RP1210L to testing of our HD 1210L pallet with their Jakarta manufacturing, logistic operations and their main supply chain partners. This process is now nearing the conclusion of testing and we will update the market accordingly of any results from this testing.

During the quarter we shipped our first order for over 1,050 NP 1210L pallets through our new distributor to Universal Leaf Tobacco. Follow up orders for a further 5,500pcs are anticipated in Q3 2021 and we will update the market accordingly.

Our resellers continue to place new orders and are expanding their businesses through the quarter, as well as ensuring we have enough production for rental orders, current orders and back-log, it is our intention to build a modest inventory of pallets as resellers demand a faster turnaround of pallets than retail end user clients. It is our intention to put in another price rise for both end users and resellers, subject to contract obligations and market conditions, as of January 1st 2022.

Numerous large corporate customers have expressed interest in our recycling waste to pallet program and we are currently in ongoing discussions with various potential large MNC's for using pallets and testing their waste-into-pallets in Indonesia. Shareholders should note that the sales cycle for these potential new major brand customers is over two years, and we have conducted many trials of pallets and waste with each of these potential customers over this period.

OPERATIONAL UPDATE

Raw Material Supply (RMS) Update.

• Continuous regular supply of mixed plastic bags has been difficult over the quarter. Resulting in under performance of output. We have maintained our pricing regime and quality requirement with our informal suppliers, and some have had difficulty meeting these standards.
• We are continually developing our network of suppliers and expect to see supply conditions improve, notwithstanding the unpredictability of the Covid-19 situation.
• PolyAl supply from our local recycling supplier over the quarter has been sporadic the effects from Covid-19. However, at the time of writing they are now starting to send new material again with a first shipment of 19 tonnes. This is the first shipment of new materials from this local supplier in 2021. As mentioned, we are working at an executive level now to seek TetraPak's sponsorship of broader supply of PolyAl, which is their strategic intent too to see more recycling of this material.
• Consequently, we have received our first samples from a new Poly Al supplier that has been developed in partnership with TetraPak. We anticipate having regular supply of this material commencing in August 2021. This will help stabilise our production, lower our average raw material costs and help to boost factory output.
• PT Aalborg is progressing with the production of material for Re>Pal. First shipments are expected at the beginning of August after the current Covid-19 lockdown in Jakarta is relaxed. Anticipated initial volume is 5 tonnes per day, with this growing over the coming quarter. Aalborg will supply shredded, washed and dried material ready for use in production. This enables us to directly increase output. We can use this in parallel with our own wash plant output so immediately increasing our production capacity.

• Nestle has provided a grant of over $US85k to Re>Pal for the purchase of equipment to support our collection efforts. This includes two trucks and compacting/bailing machines. This will enable us to increase local area collections with community-based suppliers that can also provide for improved plastic quality. At the time of writing, we are ordering the trucks and other equipment.
• Factory utilisation in the quarter underperformed due to RMS supply issues detailed above and unforeseen breakdowns which has been disappointing. This is an area of focus for the factory manager Pak Idwansyah and he is working with the team in Indonesia to bed down a rigorous preventative maintenance programme, which includes planned stops during the normal production days to clear materials, weekly check of wear and tear, weekly checking and changing of shredders knives and increased stocking of essentials spare parts. At the time of writing, we are seeing improved uptime with higher quality materials output into the extrusion process and better production numbers.

Our negotiations with the provider of the solar power system are continuing with the aim of reducing electricity costs. Subject to final contract negotiations and permits we are aiming for the system to be installed by calendar year end. This installation requires zero capital from Re>Pal and operates as a lease over 25 years.

As of 23rd of July there are 40,598 of orders awaiting production and where possible we will re-build a limited stock inventory in addition to fulfilling orders over the next quarter as raw material supply improves.

PRODUCT DESIGN PALLET PROGRESS

We have combined the new CP 1311 design within our new HDX range of pallets. This initiative allows us to build lighter weight pallets using hollow steel inserts to reinforce the pallet. Weight savings are in the range of 30% against our existing HD and HDL pallet designs which will better meet client expectations and allow us to fulfill such things as a higher racking load requirement where needed.

The new HDX mold uses inserts for each piece of the pallet. By doing this we can achieve 3 different pallet sizes in a single mold. Having flexibility on manufacturing different pallet sizes allows us to meet different sales applications without having the bottleneck of not having the correct pallet mold. It should also be a more efficient use of capital instead of having all capital for one design size being tied up in the one pallet mold. The first HDX mold will make the 1300x1100, 1200x1100 and 1100 x1100 pallet sizes. These have application and significant volume requirement in the chemical bag industry, the food manufacturing industry and Asian export market respectively. These are all new pallets dimensions for Re>Pal and offer us access to parts of the market we could not previously service. This new HDX mold is currently in production with the first pallet sales expected in Q4 and delivery late Q4 2021.

Our HD1210L mold has been modified during the quarter and this can now be used as both a HD1210 mold as well as well as an HD1210L mold. This enables us to double production of the HD pallet to meet the rental orders in the Philippines and for other customer orders.

Additionally, we have modified the HDL mold to increase the pallet window height to allow for a wider range of pallet movers to use the pallet. This has been a critical improvement in our pallet to meet the detailed requirements of the current Unilever testing program which completes soon.

CORPORATE UPDATE

CAPEX SPEND

As previously stated, the Company has ordered a pallet welder and production is ongoing. This will be operational by the end of September 2021 and will enable us to deliver stronger pallets that can also be used in a wider range of applications than any current two-piece pallets in our range that are fastened by nails.

The company has ordered friction washers as previously stated in the last report and these will be delivered in the next few weeks. We hope to have these units fully installed and operational by the end of the quarter. Their installation requires the reconfiguration of parts of the wash line so there will be disruption to pellet production. However overall output should not be affected with plans to minimise disruptions by stocking up on pellets before any works are carried out so that our extrusion lines can continue to run. Successful implementation of this initiative will mean a 100% increase on current wash plant output.
