REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd (KMS)

During the reporting period, production from the Thunderbird Mineral Sands Mine (Thunderbird), in the Kimberley region of Western Australia continued to advance in line with Company strategy, despite challenging market conditions.

Health and Safety

A safe working environment and culture for all employees and contractors is paramount within the KMS operating environment. Strong health, safety and environmental performance continues to be achieved at Thunderbird, with over 350,000 hours worked during the reporting period, Thunderbird total recordable injury frequency rate stands at 3.83 as at the end of 2025.

Production

Total ore mined for the reporting period was 5.9 million tonnes, and 18% increase compared to the same period last year, with concentrate production totalling 462,118 tonnes for the reporting period. Dry Mining Unit (DMU) operating performance continues to achieve an annualised mining rate of approximately 12Mt per annum, with the throughput rate expected to grow throughout the remainder of FY2026, in line with KMS strategy to increase mining volume and rougher head feed to the plant.

For the reporting period, the Heavy Mineral (HM) grade of the feed to the process plant (Rougher Head Feed or RHF) was 21.9%, consistent with the same period last year. Rougher Head Feed volumes achieved continued to be approximately 75% of basis of design per tonne of ore mined. The process plant is performing to plan, with TiO2 and ZrO2 recovery above basis of design.

Product shipments totalled 438,138 dry metric tonnes for the reporting period, resulting in a 33% increase compared to the same period last year. The deterioration in the zircon concentrate market observed in the 2025 September quarter continued into the 2025 December quarter. Late in the 2025 December quarter, there were some indications of the market stabilising, however market weakness is expected to continue for the remainder of FY2026.

Sales

Product shipments of ilmenite concentrate totalled 346,075 metric tonnes under the offtake agreement to joint venture partner, Yansteel. Product pricing is fixed price per percent of TiO2 content contained within the ilmenite concentrate, with realised pricing of approximately US$120/t for the reporting period.

Zircon concentrate shipments totalled 92,063 metric tonnes, with shipments made to a combination third party customers and Yansteel. The average realised price achieved for zircon concentrate was US$490/t, an 11% decrease compared to the same period last year.

Financial

At the end of December 2025, KMS cash reserves totalled $2m, with challenging market conditions persisting throughout the mineral sands sector. Prepayment arrangements with Yansteel continue to assist with short term working capital requirements.

C1 cash costs per tonne produced (excluding inventory movement) were $229/tonne of concentrate for the reporting period. Underlying C1 cash costs, after taking into account growth in inventory arising from strong production, was $235/tonne of concentrate. Finished goods inventory comprises approximately 100,000 tonnes of ilmenite concentrate and over 20,000 tonnes of zircon concentrate available for shipment as at the end of the reporting period.

During the reporting period, KMS initiated discussions with the senior secured lenders with a view to resculpting and aligning the future scheduled debt repayments to the revised mine plan, costs and forecast prices (refer to ASX announcement dated 22 July 2025). During the 2025 December quarter, KMS agreed a wavier and deferral arrangement in relation to the December 2025 interest and principal repayment obligations, and various covenant waivers associated with the senior secured facilities.

KMS continues to progress and advance debt restructure negotiations, however there can be no certainty that any amendments to the senior secured loan facilities will be successfully completed during the near term. Sheffield and Yansteel remain sponsors and guarantors to the senior secured loan facilities.

South Atlantic Project

The South Atlantic Project is located within the Rio Grande do Sul Coastal Plain, a region located in the southernmost state of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Four main deposits have been identified within the project area: Retiro, Estreito, Capao do Meio and Bujuru with Exploration Targets developed for the Retiro and Bujuru deposits.

In early 2023, Sheffield executed a binding investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromus Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, current owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM), providing Sheffield with an option to acquire a 20% interest in RGM, the 100% owner of the South Atlantic Project in Brazil. Sheffield and RGM have entered into a variation agreement, further extending the option term from August 2025 to February 2027. Under revised Variation terms, the option of acquire a 20% interest in RGM is exercisable within a 48 month period of the Agreement (i.e., February 2027), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions precedent under certain circumstances, including the execution of a formal shareholders agreement and framework agreement for the resultant joint venture.

Activities at RGM focussed on progressing project approvals and a pre-feasibility study. A drilling campaign totalling approximately 1,300 metres was completed at Bujuru and South Retiro during the 2025 December quarter, with assaying underway.

Capital Metals Plc

As at 31 December 2025, Sheffield held a 10% interest in Capital Metals Plc (AIM: CMET), the owner of the Taprobane Minerals Project in Sri Lanka. CMET is progressing in-country activities within Sri Lanka toward development of the Taprobane Minerals Project.

In late January 2026, Sheffield sold its entire 10% interest in Capital Metals for £2 million (A$4 million) before costs.

The 30 June 2025 and 30 June 2024 estimates have been rounded to 5Mt for ore tonnes, 0.1% for HM and 2 significant figures for oversize, slimes, zircon, HiTi, leucoxene and ilmenite. Valuable Mineral Assemblage is expressed both as % in ore and % in HM. Ore Reserves are reported as material within pit designs but limited to below a top-of-ore surface generated from consideration of the optimisation value modelling, discard strategy and current geological domain interpretation.

Note 1: Tonnages and grades are rounded to reflect the relative uncertainty of the estimate, thus the sum of columns may not equal.

Note 2: HM is within the 38µm to 1mm size fraction and reported as a percentage of the total material, slimes is the -38µm fraction and oversize is the +1mm fraction.

The Ore Reserve estimate was prepared by Entech Pty Ltd, an experienced and prominent mining engineering consultancy with appropriate mineral sands experience in accordance with the JORC Code (2012 Edition). The Ore Reserve is estimated using all available geological and relevant drill hole and assay data, including mineralogical sampling and test work on mineral recoveries and final product qualities. Measured and Indicated Resources were converted to Proved and Probable Ore Reserves respectively, subject to mine design, modifying factors and economic valuation.

The Company is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the Ore Reserve estimate.

Note 1: Night Train: The Mineral Resources estimate was prepared by Optiro Pty Ltd (now Snowden Optiro) and first disclosed under the JORC Code (2012). Thunderbird: The Mineral Resource estimate was prepared by Optiro Pty Ltd (now Snowden Optiro) and first disclosed under the JORC Code (2012). The Dampier Project Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of (not additional to) Ore Reserves.

Note 2: HM is within the 38µm to 1mm size fraction and reported as a percentage of the total material, slimes is the -38µm fraction and oversize is the +1mm fraction.

Note 3: Tonnes and grades have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy and confidence level of the estimate, thus the sum of columns may not equal.

Note 4: Thunderbird: Estimates of Mineral Assemblage are presented as percentages of the Heavy Mineral (HM) component of the deposit, as determined by magnetic separation, QEMSCAN[TM] and XRF. Magnetic fractions were analysed by QEMSCAN[TM] for mineral determination as follows: Ilmenite: 40-70% TiO2 >90% Liberation; Leucoxene: 70-94% TiO2 >90% Liberation; High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene): >94% TiO2 >90% Liberation; and Zircon: 66.7% ZrO2+HfO2 >90% Liberation. The non-magnetic fraction was submitted for XRF analysis and minerals determined as follows: Zircon: ZrO2+HfO2/0.667 and High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene): TiO2/0.94. An adjustment has been made to the oversize contents to align this with production data.

Note 5: Night Train: Estimates of Mineral Assemblage are presented as percentages of the Heavy Mineral (HM) component of the deposit, as determined by magnetic separation, QEMSCAN[TM] and XRF for one of 12 composite samples. Magnetic fractions were analysed by QEMSCAN[TM] for mineral determination as follows: Ilmenite: 40-70% TiO2 >90% Liberation; Leucoxene: 70-90% TiO2 >90% Liberation; High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene) and Rutile 90% TiO2 >90% Liberation, and Zircon: 66.7% ZrO2+HfO2 >90% Liberation. The non-magnetic fraction was submitted for XRF analysis and minerals determined as follows: Zircon: ZrO2+HfO2/0.667 and High Titanium Leucoxene (HiTi Leucoxene): TiO2/0.94. HM assemblage determination- was by the QEMSCAN[TM] process for 11 of 12 composite samples which uses observed mass and chemistry to classify particles according to their average chemistry, and then report mineral abundance by dominant % mass in particle. For the TiO2 minerals the following breakpoints were used to distinguish between Ilmenite 40% to 70% TiO2, Leucoxene 70% to 90% TiO2, High Titanium Leucoxene and Rutile > 90%, Screening of the heavy mineral was not required.

Note 6: HiTi Leucoxene and Rutile (%) combined for Night Train at a >90% TiO2 (as one assemblage sample utilised=> 90% rutile and HiTi Leucoxene), HiTi Leucoxene for Thunderbird > 94% TiO2

Note 7: Mineral Resources at Thunderbird are depleted for mining to 25 June 2025. End of period mining pickups occur on 25[th] of the month. Mining physicals between 26[th] - 30[th] are not material in relation to the overall Ore Reserve and are within rounding tolerances.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the half year ended 31 December 2025

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

The consolidated financial report for the for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 covers Sheffield Resources Limited (Sheffield, Parent entity or the Company) and its controlled entities (collectively known as the Group or consolidated entity). The principal activities during the year were mineral sands operations in Australia and mineral sands evaluation in Brazil and Sri Lanka.

Sheffield is a for-profit company limited by shares whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). The Company and its controlled entities are incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The registered office and principal place of business of the Company is 45 Ventnor Avenue, West Perth WA 6005.

The consolidated financial report of Sheffield for the half year ended 31 December 2025 was authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 24 February 2026.

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

These general-purpose financial statements for the interim half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.

These general-purpose financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2025 and any public announcements made by the Company during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ASX Listing Rules.

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, unless otherwise stated.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Group recorded a net loss after tax for the half year ended 31 December 2025 of $14.5m (31 December 2024: net loss after tax of $25.4m). At 31 December 2025, the Group had $1.4m in cash and cash equivalents (30 June 2025: $7m). The Group’s net assets were $102.2m (30 June 2025: $116.5m) and the net cash outflows from operating activities were $1.3m (31 December 2024: $1.5m).

Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd (KMS) became jointly owned by Sheffield and YGH Australia Investment Pty Ltd (Yansteel) on 12 March 2021. The Thunderbird mineral sands project (Thunderbird) was previously held by Sheffield through its 100% owned subsidiary KMS prior to the formation of the joint venture. The project is located in north-west Western Australia. KMS made a Final Investment Decision (FID) to construct and develop the Thunderbird project on 7 October 2022. KMS reached financial close on a combined $315m senior loan facilities provided by Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) and OMRF (Th) LLC, a related entity of Orion Mineral Royalty Fund (Orion). The Thunderbird project was fully funded through to first production.

Operations at Thunderbird continued to observe higher than expected oversize material, constraining Dry Mining Unit (DMU) output available to feed the processing plant. Productivity was also challenged by lower mining rates compared to plan and greater than expected DMU maintenance requirements impacting DMU availability. Despite these challenges, mining operations were achieving an annualised production rate of 12mtpa, consistent with business the revised business plan. Commodity prices within the zircon concentrate market have observed deterioration during the reporting period, with some indications of market stabilisation during the December 2025 quarter, however market weakness is expected to continue for at least the first half of 2026.

During the reporting period, KMS initiated discussions with the senior secured lenders with a view to resculpting and aligning the future scheduled debt repayments to the revised mine plan, costs and forecast prices (refer to ASX announcement dated 22 July 2025). During the 2025 December quarter, KMS agreed a wavier and deferral arrangement in relation to the December 2025 interest and principal repayment obligations, and various covenant waivers associated with the senior secured facilities.

KMS continues to progress and advance debt restructure negotiations, however there can be no certainty that any amendments to the senior secured loan facilities will be successfully completed during the near term. Sheffield and Yansteel remain sponsors and guarantors to the senior secured loan facilities.

INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2025 16

SHEFFIELD RESOURCES LIMITED Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

==> picture [60 x 40] intentionally omitted <==

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast for the next 12 month period. Whilst the Directors are confident that any potential future funding requirements for the Group will be successfully completed, the timing and costs of any additional funding remains uncertain. Should the Company be unsuccessful in obtaining such funding, there is a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt whether the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and therefore, whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.

The Directors have discretion regarding the level and timing of expenditure to be incurred against forecast expenditure. Steps can be taken to contain operating and investment activities, ensuring the Group’s ability to manage the timing of cash flows to meet committed obligations of the business as and when they fall due.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below.

Share-based payment transactions

The consolidated entity measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using either the Binomial or BlackScholes model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions relating to equity-settled share-based payments would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact profit or loss and equity.

Exploration and evaluation costs

Exploration and evaluation costs have been capitalised on the basis the costs meet the requirements of ASB 6 and/or that the consolidated entity will commence commercial production in the future, from which time the costs will be amortised in proportion to the depletion of the mineral resources. Key judgements are applied in considering costs to be capitalised which includes determining expenditures directly related to these activities and allocating overheads between those that are expensed and capitalised. In addition, costs are only capitalised that are expected to be recovered either through successful development or sale of the relevant mining interest. Factors that could impact the future commercial production at the mine include the level of reserves and resources, future technology changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes and changes in commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised costs are determined not to be recoverable in the future, they will be written off in the period in which this determination is made.

Investment in joint venture

The Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an impairment loss on its investment in joint venture. At each reporting date, the Group determines whether there is objective evidence that the investment in the 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 joint venture and carrying value and then recognises the loss within “Share of joint venture results” in the statement of profit or loss.

Upon loss of significant influence 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 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.

4. SEGMENT REPORTING

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM). The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments and has been identified as the Board. Current taxes and deferred taxes are not allocated to the segments as they are managed on a group basis.

The Group’s operating segments are as follows:

  • South Atlantic project – Project consists of mineral sands tenements located in Brazil. On 28 February 2023, Sheffield executed a binding investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromus Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM). Please refer to Note 5 for additional information.

  • Thunderbird project – Project consists of mineral sands tenements located in the Canning Basin that form part of the Thunderbird mineral sand mining operation held by Thunderbird Operations Pty Ltd, subsidiary of Kimberley Mineral Sands Pty Ltd (KMS). KMS is jointly owned by Sheffield and YGH Australia Investment Pty Ltd (Yansteel). The project is in the northwest of Western Australia. Please refer to Note 6 for additional information.

5. EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

South Atlantic Project

Sheffield has executed a binding investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromos Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM). The Project is located within the Rio Grande do Sul Coastal Plain, a region located in the southernmost state of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The tenements are held by RGM.

In early 2023, Sheffield executed a binding investment agreement (RGM Option Agreement) with Mineração Santa Elina Indústria e Comércio S/A. and Kromus Xi Fundo De Investimento Em Participações, current owners of Rio Grande Mineração S/A (RGM), providing Sheffield with an option to acquire a 20% interest in RGM, the 100% owner of the South Atlantic Project in Brazil. Sheffield and RGM have entered into a variation agreement, further extending the option term from August 2025 to February 2027. Under revised Variation terms, the option of acquire a 20% interest in RGM is exercisable within a 48 month period of the Agreement (i.e., February 2027), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions precedent under certain circumstances, including the execution of a formal shareholders agreement and framework agreement for the resultant joint venture.

Sheffield has considered that whilst the amounts advanced and the protective rights within the RGM Option Agreement meets the criteria within AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation and classified and measured under AASB 9 Financial Instruments, the RGM Option Agreement may also be viewed as a customary option farm-in arrangement to be recognised under AASB 6 Exploration for and Evaluation of Mineral Resources. To that end, Sheffield maintains its disclosure in accordance with AASB 6.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT

To the Members of Sheffield Resources Limited

Report on the Condensed Half-Year Financial Report

Conclusion

We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Sheffield Resources Limited (the “Company”) and its controlled entities (the “Group”), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 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 half-year ended on that date, selected explanatory notes, and the directors’ declaration, for the Group comprising the Company and the entities it controlled at the half-year end or from time to time during the half-year.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of Sheffield Resources Limited does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

  • (a) giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and of its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

  • (b) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibility is further described in the Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of 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 audits of the financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial report, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Responsibility of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year 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 half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility for the Review of the Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
