South Harz Potash Limited

Executive Chair’s letter

26 September 2025

Dear fellow shareholders,

Welcome to South Harz Potash’s Annual Report for the 2025 Financial Year. The Company has repositioned itself over the past 12 months, streamlining our cost base and growth strategy in a challenging potash market. Having completed this important step, we are now looking to the future, intent on building long-term shareholder value through a clear dual-asset strategy: acquiring a complementary critical minerals opportunity, while preserving and advancing the world-class option value embedded in our German potash portfolio.

During the year, we advanced several initiatives to strengthen both our balance sheet and development pathway. Following completion of the Ohmgebirge Pre-feasibility Study (PFS) in May 2024, we maintained low-cost workstreams and extended exclusivity on the potential acquisition of the neighbouring Sollstedt mine property through to December 2025. If completed, this would secure access to substantial underground and surface infrastructure, enhancing our brownfield development pathway.

We solidified our financial position with strong support from shareholders, directors, and counterparties. Notably, our technical adviser K-Utec converted a significant portion of its creditor balance into equity, demonstrating confidence in our assets and strategy.

We continue to advance our German R&D tax rebate applications, with final determinations expected in the December 2025 quarter, potentially providing valuable non-dilutive funding. We also intend to pursue additional funding solutions, including grant funding and strategic asset-level investment, through active engagement with financial and industry parties. In addition, Cutfield Freeman & Co has been appointed to explore development funding and strategic partnerships for Ohmgebirge.

To streamline our capital structure, the Company completed a 1-for-15 share consolidation in August 2025, resulting in 127,882,061 shares on issue.

The capital raised will be directed toward advancing South Harz’s dual-asset strategy over the next 12 months. We are focused on identifying and acquiring a mining project within the critical minerals space that will be complementary to our South Harz Potash assets, while optimising the value of Ohmgebirge and our wider potash portfolio.

The investment landscape has been evolving, with a global drive to build secure and sustainable supply chains for critical minerals. Governments and industry are actively seeking to diversify away from concentrated supply sources, creating attractive opportunities for companies with the right expertise and regional presence. This presents a unique opportunity for South Harz, leveraging our established operating experience in Europe and proven project development capability. By securing the right project, we can support the growing demand for secure, sustainable supplies vital to the energy transition and advanced technologies.

The Board’s governance and expertise was enhanced with the appointment of Mr Richard Pearce as a Non ‑ Executive Director in June 2025. Richard brings over three decades of experience across critical, industrial and energy minerals, spanning exploration, development, financing and M&A. His perspectives will be invaluable as we execute our dual ‑ asset strategy.

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

South Harz Potash Limited

Our operating settings remain lean and disciplined. Through the financial year expenditure was associated ‑ with post PFS value engineering, permitting preparation and community and stakeholder engagement in Thuringia. In parallel, we advanced discussions with Deusa in relation to infrastructure access and pursued strategic partner options to support the next stage of project advancement. These activities continue, albeit at a reduced level with a smaller team, reflecting both current potash market conditions and our strategic shift to a dual ‑ asset approach, and ensure we remain well positioned to respond quickly should potash prices ‑ and capital market conditions improve.

Looking ahead to the next financial year, we are targeting further cost savings while maintaining the essential activities required to protect and advance our potash option value and to execute our dual-asset strategy. This approach builds on the cost reductions already achieved and will be realised through selective outsourcing, further prioritisation of workstreams and continued pursuit of non-dilutive funding avenues in Germany and the EU.

On behalf of the Board, I thank our shareholders, partners, employees and stakeholders across Australia, Germany and Europe for your continued support.

I look forward to updating shareholders on our progress in delivering against our dual objectives: securing ‑ an attractive critical minerals asset while protecting and enhancing the long term value of our potash portfolio in the heart of Europe.

South Harz Potash Limited

Review of activities

Introduction

During the financial; year, South Harz Potash Limited (ASX: SHP) ( South Harz or the Company ) advanced a disciplined program to preserve and enhance value at the Ohmgebirge Potash Development in Germany while adopting a dual ‑ asset strategy to identify and acquire a complementary critical minerals opportunity.

The South Harz Potash Project

The South Harz Project hosts a globally large-scale potash JORC (2012) Mineral Resource estimate of 258 million tonnes at 13.2% K2O of Indicated Resources and 5.1 billion tonnes at 10.6% K2O of Inferred Resources across four whollyowned project areas located favourably within central Europe. This comprises three perpetual potash mining licences, Ohmgebirge, Ebeleben and Mühlhausen-Nohra, and two potash exploration licences, Küllstedt and Gräfentonna (Figure 1). This tenure is contained within a well-defined potash basin which has been mined locally for fertiliser salts for more than 100 years.

Operational Focus

Operational expenditure was focused on post ‑ PFS value ‑ engineering workstreams, permitting preparation (including Stage 2 groundwork and environmental impact assessment inputs), stakeholder engagement in Thuringia, progression of negotiations with Deusa for infrastructure access via Sollstedt and strategic partner discussions to support the next stage of project advancement. These activities continue, albeit at a reduced level with a smaller team and with discretionary spend reduced, reflect both current potash market conditions and the Company’s ‑ strategic shift to a dual asset approach, positioning the Company to remain responsive to market conditions while protecting the option value inherent in the South Harz portfolio.

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES

South Harz Potash Limited

Ohmgebirge development and optimisation

‑ During the financial year, the Company commissioned a desktop value engineering review of Ohmgebirge. These workstreams examined a number of areas which may have the potential to enhance the value of Ohmgebirge, ‑ including a staged development model leveraging the four existing Sollstedt shafts, higher temperature leach options to improve downstream energy efficiency, mine planning optimisation, power procurement and potential ‑ SOP/by product opportunities.

Figure 2: Plan view of Ohmgebirge and neighbouring Sollstedt mine property

==> picture [479 x 321] intentionally omitted <==

Sollstedt acquisition

Exclusivity on the targeted Sollstedt purchase was extended several times through the year as due diligence and ‑ negotiations progressed. Post year end, exclusivity was extended to 31 December 2025. The acquisition remains subject to definitive documentation and customary approvals. Ownership of the asset will enable a materially lower ‑ footprint brownfield development for Ohmgebirge using existing shafts and underground infrastructure and unlock further potential synergies across the broader South Harz project area.

Permitting

Building on the Spatial Planning Assessment received in June 2024, preparatory permitting activities continued during the financial year in advance of the commencement of the Stage 2 permitting (general framework operating plan) process, underpinned by completed environmental baseline studies to feed into the final Environmental Impact Assessment.

German R&D tax rebate application

The Company also prepared and lodged applications for German R&D tax incentive rebates on 17 April 2025. During ‑ the June 2025 quarter, BSFZ issued first stage certification confirming the applications constitute eligible R&D, and ‑ the process has moved to tax office review with timing for a potential cash refund expected for the December 2025 quarter.

Strategic funding pathways

During the financial year, the Company engaged specialist mining finance advisor Cutfield Freeman & Co to assist with assessing potential project development funding pathways including identifying potential strategic partners to progress the Ohmgebirge project to the Feasibility Study stage and beyond.

ERMA application outcome

In the March 2025 quarter, the Company submitted an application for critical minerals funding from the EU’s European Raw Materials Alliance ( ERMA ) for a potential investment into Ohmgebirge. Shortly after the end of the financial year, ERMA advised that SHP’s application for funding support was unsuccessful as potash is not currently listed as an EU critical raw material. The Company continues to advocate for potash’s inclusion and to pursue other EU and German funding avenues.

Stakeholder relations

Stakeholder engagement remained active at local, state and federal levels in Germany, including ongoing community ‑ dialogue in Thuringia and participation in European Union raw materials forums. Relationships with newly elected regional officials were strengthened, with constructive briefings held throughout the year.

REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES

South Harz Potash Limited

Other potash-related opportunities

Extensive further upside potential and/or Sollstedt synergy opportunities not considered or incorporated within the Ohmgebirge Pre-Feasibility Study nor the recent value engineering desktop reviews include:

  • The broader South Harz Project is a potential multi-generational asset. The Ohmgebirge Development focuses on the mining, processing and sale of MOP from solely the Ohmgebirge sylvinite deposit (286 Mt Mineral Resource). The broader South Harz Potash Project comprises multiple deposits with total potash Inferred Mineral Resources exceeding 5 billion tonnes. Targeted mining of these large-scale existing Mineral Resources beyond Ohmgebirge has the potential to deliver potential multiples of life extension and/or capital-lite modular expansion. The acquisition of Sollstedt also delivers a range of potential early/low-cost access synergies to the development of other deposits within the broader South Harz Potash Project.

  • Substantial in-situ potash sits proximate to the Sollstedt mine and existing underground infrastructure. Mining of this material could deliver significant life extension and/or increased output rates in early years for the Ohmgebirge Development.

  • The agreement to acquire Sollstedt will deliver the ready potential for future definitive-stage geological and geotechnical study work to be undertaken from underground, at significantly lower cost versus alternative surface-based activities.

New shares issued under the June Placement or the June Entitlement Offer included one free attaching option for every two new shares, exercisable at $0.006 and expiring two years from issue.

Tranche 1 of the June Placement raised $541,000 in gross new equity from 180,333,336 new shares that were issued on 27 June 2025. Tranche 2 of the June Placement, secured commitments for $1,291,571 in gross new equity, which was subject to, and received shareholder approval at the Company’s general meeting on 15 August 2025. It included $620,522 of shares to be issued to service providers in lieu of cash, including a creditor offset arrangement with K ‑ Utec (see details below). Directors Len Jubber, Rory Luff and Reinout Koopmans also provided firm commitments to subscribe (either themselves or through their director-related entities) for $294,000 in Tranche 2.

In July 2025, the Company announced the results of the June Entitlement Offer.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

South Harz Potash Limited

Tranche 1 of the June Placement raised $541,000 in gross new equity from 180,333,336 new shares that were issued on 27 June 2025. Tranche 2 of the June Placement, secured commitments for $1,291,571 in gross new equity, which was subject to, and received shareholder approval at the Company’s general meeting on 15 August 2025. It included $620,522 of shares to be issued to service providers in lieu of cash, including a creditor offset ‑ arrangement with K Utec (see details below). Directors Len Jubber, Rory Luff and Reinout Koopmans also provided firm commitments to subscribe (either themselves or through their director-related entities) for $294,000 in Tranche 2.

In July 2025, the Company announced the results of the June Entitlement Offer. Of the 427,688,078 shares offered, 188,661,286 new shares were issued to eligible shareholders (including applications for additional shares) on 31 July 2025 representing gross new equity of $565,984. Directors Len Jubber, Rory Luff and Reinout Koopmans supported the offer through subscriptions under their (or their director-related entities’) entitlements.

The completion of the June Entitlement Offer left a shortfall of 239,026,792 shares ( August Shortfall Shares ), following which the Company undertook efforts to place these shares ( August Shortfall Offer ). On 18 August 2025, the Company closed the August Shortfall Offer with commitments of $180,000 for 60,000,000 new shares from a combination of new and existing investors and Directors. Director participation included additional commitments ‑ totalling $70,000 from Len Jubber and newly appointed Non Executive Director Richard Pearce, which are subject to shareholder approval at the Company’s Annual General Meeting expected to be held in November 2025. All August Shortfall Shares were issued on the same terms as the June Entitlement Offer (share issue price of $0.003 with attaching options on a 1 ‑ for ‑ 2 basis with exercise price of $0.006 and two ‑ year expiry from issue).

Aggregating the June Placement, the June Entitlement Offer, the August Shortfall Offer and Director subscriptions to be approved at the forthcoming AGM, the Company secured approximately $2.58 million in gross new equity (before costs), representing approximately 83% of the $3,115,636target announced in June 2025.

‑ Proceeds from the capital raising activities are being applied to advance the Company’s dual asset strategy over the next 9–12 months, including (i) identification and targeted acquisition of a second complementary mining project; ‑ and (ii) preserving and growing the longer term option value of the Ohmgebirge Development and the broader ‑ South Harz Potash Project through targeted non dilutive funding sources and continued engagement with potential strategic investors.

Share Consolidation

Following the closure of the Company’s capital raising activities conducted from June to August 2025, on 20 August 2025 the Board implemented its previously announced 1 ‑ for ‑ 15 share consolidation, which had received shareholder approval at the general meeting held on 15 August 2025.

Creditor Balances

During the financial year, the Company agreed with two creditors of its wholly-owned German subsidiary, Südharz Kali GmbH ( SHK ), new terms for the repayment of invoices totalling $1,406,704 (€784,772) as at 30 June 2025. The outstanding invoices relate to engineering services provided to SHK for the Ohmgebirge Pre-Feasibility Study by K- Utec AG Salt Technologies ( K-Utec ) and ERCOSPLAN Ingenieurgesellschaft Geotechnik und Bergbau GmbH ( Ercosplan ).

The Company and K-Utec signed binding agreements to defer the repayment of invoices owing, totalling €309,861 ($555,426) as at 30 June 2025, until 31 December 2026 on the basis that the Company continues to pay interest monthly at a rate of 5% per annum on the balance owed. Subsequently to this agreement, the parties then agreed in June 2025 that K-Utec would subscribe for 152,327,000 new shares with 76,163,500 Rights Issue Options in the Company as part of Tranche 2 of its share placement announced on 30 June 2025. The amount of A$456,981 owing by K-Utec on this subscription is to be partially offset against the outstanding balance of €309,861 owed to K-Utec by the Company, with the residual balance of €49,480 to be paid in cash by the Company upon issue of the shares. Subsequent to the financial year end, on 20 August 2025 these shares were issued to K-Utec and the Company paid the cash payment of €49,480 to K-Utec on 27 August 2025 in full settlement of the debt owing to K-Utec.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

South Harz Potash Limited

REMUNERATION REPORT (Audited)

The remuneration report, which has been audited, outlines the Director and executive remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity and the Company, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.

The Board aligns the compensation structure of the Company closely to the strategy of the Company, its shareholders’ interests and existing market practice. It offers a structured short-term incentive plan and long-term retention plan for senior and key executive team members and allocates long-term incentive securities (options and performance rights) to non-executive Board members.

The short-term executive incentive plan consists of performance-related bonus payments, based on the achievement of pre-agreed targets directly derived from the Company's strategy, as communicated to the shareholders and the market in general. The long-term executive incentives plan consists of multiyear, high premium options or performance rights with vesting conditions and vesting periods.

These compensation packages are reassessed annually, based on packages offered by comparable companies in Australia and around the world. The compensation cycle follows the financial year.

Principles Used to Determine the Nature and Amount of Remuneration

Remuneration Philosophy

The performance of the Company depends upon the quality of its Directors and executive officers. To prosper, the Company must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled Directors and executive officers. The Directors' remuneration is comparable to similar sized companies in the junior mining industry with international assets.

Remuneration Committee Responsibilities

The Board’s Remuneration Committee (the “Committee”) assesses the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of Directors and senior executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant employment market conditions, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum stakeholder benefit from the retention of a high-quality Board and executive team.

Incentive Plans

The Committee’s objective is to:

  • a) review and make recommendations concerning short-term and long-term incentive and retention compensation plans, including the use of share options, performance rights, or and other equity-based plans. Except as otherwise delegated, the Committee will administer equity-based and employee benefit plans, and as such will discharge any responsibilities under those plans, including making and authorising issues of equity, in accordance with the terms of those plans;

  • b) ensure that incentive plans are designed around appropriate and realistic performance targets, either at an individual or company level, that measure relative performance and provide rewards when they are achieved; and

  • c) continually review and, if necessary, improve any existing benefit programs established for employees.

Ultimately the shareholders must approve any incentive plans proposed by the Company.

Authority and Resources

The Committee may seek input from individuals on remuneration policies, but no individual should be directly involved in deciding their own remuneration. The Committee may, when it considers it necessary or appropriate, obtain advice from external consultants or specialists in relation to remuneration related matters. In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive Directors and executive remunerations are separate.

Non-Executive Directors’ Remuneration

The constitution of the Company provides for a maximum aggregate amount that may be paid to non-executive Directors (referred to as a “non-executive Directors’ remuneration pool”) to be determined by shareholders at a general meeting. ASX requires the non-executive Directors’ remuneration pool amount to be specified.

A maximum non-executive Directors’ remuneration pool amount of $500,000 per annum was adopted at the 2016 General Meeting. The non-executive Directors’ remuneration pool is a maximum amount and does not mean that non-executive Directors will be paid a total of $500,000 per annum. The amount of each non-executive Directors’ remuneration and allocations among non-executive Directors within the pool limit are determined by the Committee, and the process of determining non-executive Directors’ remuneration is subject to compliance with corporate governance policies. Payment to non-executive Directors for specific services beyond the ordinary role of a nonexecutive Director, such as consulting or professional services, are excluded from the total pool amount, as is reimbursement of expense. Any future change to the non-executive Directors’ remuneration pool will require further shareholder approval.

Non-executive Directors are eligible to participate in the Company’s employee incentive plans, upon obtaining shareholder approval. During the financial year, non-executive Directors were granted securities as detailed in the table following pages.

Executive Remuneration

The Company aims to reward its executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the consolidated entity, to reward executives for meeting or exceeding targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks; align the interests of executives with those of shareholders; and ensure remuneration is competitive by market standards. The Company retains the right to make annual bonus payments in cash or shares as deemed appropriate.

It is the Company’s remuneration policy that employment contracts must be entered into by the Chief Executive Officer (or equivalent position) and senior executives. The level of fixed remuneration is set to provide a base level of remuneration which is both appropriate to the position and competitive in the market. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the Committee as part of an assessment on that executive’s performance. The Committee has access to external independent advice during the year.

Employee Incentive Securities Plan

A revised employee incentive scheme (“the Employee Incentive Securities Plan” or “the Plan”) was adopted at the 28 November 2024 Annual General Meeting. The purpose of the Plan is to enable eligible Directors’, officers and employees (including executive and non-executive Directors of the Company or its subsidiaries) to receive options to acquire shares in the Company.

The objective of the Employee Incentive Securities Plan is to attract, motivate and retain key employees. The Company considers that the adoption of the Employee Incentive Securities Plan and the future issue of securities under the Plan will provide selected employees with the opportunity to participate in the future growth of the Company. Securities issued under the Employee Incentive Securities Plan are Equity settled share-based payments.

No Directors or their associates can or will participate in the Employee Incentive Securities Plan or receive any securities unless and until required shareholder approval of specific issues to them is obtained. All the options and performance rights issued to Directors and others in a position of influence were approved by shareholders in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.14 (excluding issues under Entitlement Issues whereby Directors (or their associates) who were existing shareholders of the Company took up their entitlement).

The options and performance rights granted to Directors and KMP under the Employee Incentive Securities Plan are detailed below.

South Harz Potash Limited

Notes to the financial statements 30 June 2025

Note 1. Material Accounting Policy Information

The financial report covers South Harz Potash Limited as a consolidated entity consisting of South Harz Potash Limited and the entities it controlled. The financial report is presented in Australian dollars, which is South Harz Potash Limited's functional and presentation currency.

The accounting policies that are material to the consolidated entity are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors, on 26 September 2025

Exploration and evaluation assets

It is the Company’s policy to capitalise the cost of acquiring rights to explore areas of interest. All other exploration and evaluation expenditure is expensed as incurred and included as part of cash flows from operating activities.

The costs of acquisition are carried forward as an asset provided one of the following conditions is met:

  • a. Such costs are expected to be recouped through the successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or alternatively, by its sale; or

  • b. Exploration activities in the area of interest have not yet reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in relation to the area are continuing. When the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource have been demonstrated then any capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is reclassified as capitalised mine development. Prior to reclassification, capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment.

Exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources is the search for mineral resources after the entity has obtained legal rights to explore in a specific area, as well as the determination of the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the mineral resource.

Accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditures is assessed separately for each ‘area of interest’ to determine whether expenditure is expensed as incurred or capitalised as an asset. An ‘area of interest’ is an individual geological area which is considered to constitute a favourable environment for the presence of a mineral deposit or has been proved to contain such a deposit.

Impairment

The carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is assessed for impairment at the cash generating unit level whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the asset may exceed its recoverable amount.

An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Any impairment losses are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

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

38 | P a g e

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)

South Harz Potash Limited

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

Basis of preparation

These general-purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB').

Historical cost convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for, where applicable, the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, investment properties, certain classes of property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in note 2.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

The financial 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 ordinary course of business.

The Company incurred an operating loss of $3,123,920 (2024: $9,151,019) and incurred negative cash flows from operations of $2,602,693 (2024: $8,207,008)

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon the ability of the Company to secure funds by raising capital from equity markets and managing cash flow in line with available funds. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Based on the cash-flow forecasts and other factors referred to above, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate, given the following:

  • The Company has the ability to defer discretionary costs as and when required.

  • The Directors are exploring a variety of options to raise funds. Given the Company’s history of raising capital to date, the Directors are confident of the Company’s ability to raise additional funds as and when they are required.

Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at amounts different to those stated in the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when they fall due.

Parent entity information

In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 19.

Foreign currency translation

The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognises income as follows:

Interest

Interest revenue is recognised as interest accrues using the effective interest method. This is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Income tax

South Harz Potash Limited (the 'head entity') and its wholly owned Australian subsidiaries have formed an income tax consolidated group under the tax consolidation regime. The head entity and each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The tax consolidated group has applied the 'separate taxpayer within group' approach in determining the appropriate amount of taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group.

In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, the head entity also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from each subsidiary in the tax consolidated group.

Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the tax consolidated group. The tax funding arrangement ensures that the intercompany charge equals the current tax liability or benefit of each tax consolidated group member, resulting in neither a contribution by the head entity to the subsidiaries nor a distribution by the subsidiaries to the head entity.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Impairment of financial assets

Receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional. The consolidated entity holds trade receivables with the objective to collect contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any impairment or expected loss allowance is recorded in a separate account and any write off is offset against this account in the future.

Property, plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Depreciation is calculated on a diminishing value basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:

Plant and equipment: 3-5 years

40 | P a g e

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)

South Harz Potash Limited

Other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature, they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Employee benefits

Share-based payments

Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees.

Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, performance rights, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.

The cost of equity-settled transactions are measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using either the Monte-Carlo or Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other vesting conditions.

The cost of equity-settled transactions are recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognised in previous periods.

All changes in the liability are recognised in profit or loss.

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied.

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognised, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the award is forfeited.

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, it is treated as if it has vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and new award is treated as if they were a modification.

Fair value measurement

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted

Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2025. The consolidated entity has not yet assessed the impact of these not yet mandatory new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions.

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

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.

Share-based payment transactions

The Company 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 BlackScholes model or a Monte-Carlo 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. Refer to note 13 for further details.

Exploration and development costs

Exploration and development costs will only be capitalised after a defined feasibility study has been completed on a project and the key permits have been obtained at which point the commercial viability of the project can be assessed. The costs will then be amortised based on the life of mine estimate. 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.

Note 3. Operating segments

Identification of reportable operating segments

The consolidated entity is organised into one operating segment, being mining and exploration operations. This operating segment is based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.

1 Trade payables balances owing to two creditors of the Company’s wholly-owned German subsidiary, Südharz Kali GmbH ( SHK ) totalling $1,406,704 (€784,772) as at 30 June 2025. The outstanding invoices relate to engineering services provided to SHK for the Ohmgebirge Pre-Feasibility Study by K-Utec AG Salt Technologies ( K-Utec ) and ERCOSPLAN Ingenieurgesellschaft Geotechnik und Bergbau GmbH ( Ercosplan ). SHK is paying interest to these creditors at 5% per annum on the amount owed a monthly basis until the debts have been repaid.

The Company and K-Utec signed binding agreements to defer the repayment of invoices owing, totalling €309,861 ($555,426) as at 30 June 2025, until 31 December 2026 on the basis that the Company continues to pay interest monthly at a rate of 5% per annum on the balance owed. Subsequently to this agreement, the parties then agreed in June 2025 that K-Utec would subscribe for 152,327,000 new shares with 76,163,500 Rights Issue Options in the Company as part of Tranche 2 of its share placement announced on 30 June 2025. The amount of A$456,981 owing by K-Utec on this subscription is to be partially offset against the outstanding balance of €309,861 owed to K-Utec by the Company, with the residual balance of €49,480 to be paid in cash by the Company upon issue of the shares. Subsequent to the financial year end, on 20 August 2025 these shares were issued to K-Utec and the Company paid the cash payment of €49,480 to K-Utec on 27 August 2025 in full settlement of the debt owing to K-Utec.

The company and Ercosplan agreed non-binding terms during the financial year to defer the repayment of invoices owing, totalling €474,911 ($851,278) as at 30 June 2025, until 31 December 2026 on the basis that the Company continues to pay interest monthly at a rate of 5% per annum on the balance owed, and the grant by the Company of a first ranking mortgage over its interest in the Ebeleben mining lease in Thuringia, Germany, as security for the amount owed. Subsequent to the financial year end, in July 2025 the parties signed binding agreements to reflect these arrangements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT’D)

South Harz Potash Limited

Note 14. Financial instruments

Financial risk management objectives

The consolidated entity's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: foreign currency risk (including price risk and interest rate risk) and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity'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 consolidated entity. Derivatives are not used as trading or other speculative instruments. The consolidated entity uses different methods to measure different types of risk to which it is exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate and other price risks, ageing analysis for credit risk.

Risk management is carried out under policies approved by the Board of Directors ('Board'). These policies include identification and analysis of the risk exposure of the consolidated entity and appropriate procedures, controls and risk limits.

Fair value of financial instruments

Unless otherwise stated, the carrying amounts of financial instruments reflect their fair value. The carrying amounts of trade receivables and trade payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Foreign currency risk

Exposure to foreign currency risk may result from movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the consolidated entity incurs operating costs which are other than its AUD functional currency. The consolidated entity’s foreign currency risk is mitigated through the use of foreign currency bank accounts.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The consolidated entity’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always has sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the consolidated entity’s reputation.

Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board of Directors. The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves, or from funds raised in the market, or by debt and by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. The liquidity profile of the consolidated entity’s financial liabilities are disclosed in the relevant notes below.

June to August 2025 capital raising activities

‑ In June 2025, the Company announced an equity raising of up to $3,115,636comprising a two tranche placement ( June Placement ) of approximately $1,832,572 (610,857,302 shares at an issue price of $0.003 per share) and a 1 ‑ for ‑ 3 pro ‑ rata non ‑ renounceable entitlement offer to raise up to $1,283,062at the same issue price ( June

Entitlement Offer ). New shares issued under the June Placement or the June Entitlement Offer included one free attaching option for every two new shares, exercisable at $0.006 and expiring two years from issue.

Tranche 1 of the June Placement raised $541,000 in gross new equity from 180,333,336 new shares that were issued on 27 June 2025. Tranche 2 of the June Placement, secured commitments for $1,291,571 in gross new equity, which was subject to, and received shareholder approval at the Company’s general meeting on 15 August 2025. It included $620,522 of shares to be issued to service providers in lieu of cash, including a creditor offset arrangement with K ‑ Utec (see details below). Directors Len Jubber, Rory Luff and Reinout Koopmans also provided firm commitments to subscribe (either themselves or through their director-related entities) for $294,000 in Tranche 2.

In July 2025, the Company announced the results of the June Entitlement Offer. Of the 427,688,078 shares offered, 188,661,286 new shares were issued to eligible shareholders (including applications for additional shares) on 31 July 2025 representing gross new equity of $565,984. Directors Len Jubber, Rory Luff and Reinout Koopmans supported the offer through subscriptions under their (or their director-related entities’) entitlements.

The completion of the June Entitlement Offer left a shortfall of 239,026,792 shares ( August Shortfall Shares ), following which the Company undertook efforts to place these shares ( August Shortfall Offer ). On 18 August 2025, the Company closed the August Shortfall Offer with commitments of $180,000 for 60,000,000 new shares from a combination of new and existing investors and Directors. Director participation included additional commitments ‑ totalling $70,000 from Len Jubber and newly appointed Non Executive Director Richard Pearce, which are subject to shareholder approval at the Company’s Annual General Meeting expected to be held in November 2025. All August Shortfall Shares were issued on the same terms as the June Entitlement Offer (share issue price of $0.003 with attaching options on a 1 ‑ for ‑ 2 basis with exercise price of $0.006 and two ‑ year expiry from issue).

Aggregating the June Placement, the June Entitlement Offer, the August Shortfall Offer and Director subscriptions to be approved at the forthcoming AGM, the Company secured approximately $2,578,556 in gross new equity (before costs), representing approximately 83% of the $3,115,636target announced in June 2025.

‑ Proceeds from the capital raising activities are being applied to advance the Company’s dual asset strategy over the next 9–12 months, including (i) identification and targeted acquisition of a second complementary mining project; ‑ and (ii) preserving and growing the longer term option value of the Ohmgebirge Development and the broader South ‑ Harz Potash Project through targeted non dilutive funding sources and continued engagement with potential strategic investors.

Share Consolidation

Following the closure of the Company’s capital raising activities conducted from June to August 2025, on 20 August 2025 the Board implemented its previously announced 1 ‑ for ‑ 15 share consolidation, which had received shareholder approval at the general meeting held on 15 August 2025.

Creditor Balances

During the financial year, the Company agreed with two creditors of its wholly-owned German subsidiary, Südharz Kali GmbH ( SHK ) new terms for the repayment of invoices totalling $1,406,704 (€784,772) as at 30 June 2025. The outstanding invoices relate to engineering services provided to SHK for the Ohmgebirge Pre-Feasibility Study by K- Utec AG Salt Technologies ( K-Utec ) and ERCOSPLAN Ingenieurgesellschaft Geotechnik und Bergbau GmbH ( Ercosplan ).

The Company and K-Utec signed binding agreements to defer the repayment of invoices owing, totalling €309,861 ($555,426) as at 30 June 2025, until 31 December 2026 on the basis that the Company continues to pay interest monthly at a rate of 5% per annum on the balance owed. Subsequently to this agreement, the parties then agreed in June 2025 that K-Utec would subscribe for 152,327,000 new shares with 76,163,500 Rights Issue Options in the Company as part of Tranche 2 of its share placement announced on 30 June 2025. The amount of A$456,981 owing by K-Utec on this subscription is to be partially offset against the outstanding balance of €309,861 owed to K-Utec by

the Company, with the residual balance of €49,480 to be paid in cash by the Company upon issue of the shares. Subsequent to the financial year end, on 20 August 2025 these shares were issued to K-Utec and the Company paid the cash payment of €49,480 to K-Utec on 27 August 2025 in full settlement of the debt owing to K-Utec.

The company and Ercosplan agreed non-binding terms during the financial year to defer the repayment of invoices owing, totalling €474,911 ($851,278) as at 30 June 2025, until 31 December 2026 on the basis that the Company continues to pay interest monthly at a rate of 5% per annum on the balance owed, and the grant by the Company of a first ranking mortgage over its interest in the Ebeleben mining lease in Thuringia, Germany, as security for the amount owed. Subsequent to the financial year end, in July 2025 the parties signed binding agreements to reflect these arrangements.

Loans from Director-related entities to the Company

During the current and previous financial year, the Company (as borrower) executed unsecured loan facility agreements with the following Director-related entities (as lenders)

  • Mr Leonard Stanley Jubber & Mrs Alexandra Maidment Jubber as Trustees for the Jubber Super Fund, a director-related entity of Len Jubber (Mr Jubber is the trustee and a beneficiary of the Jubber Super Fund).

  • A loan facility agreement was executed on 16 April 2024 which allowed the Company to drawdown funds of up to $100,000 in aggregate, on which interest of 10% per annum accrues. The repayment date of the facility was initially 30 June 2024, which was extended to 31 August 2024 before the end of the financial year ended 30 June 2024, and then subsequently extended again to 30 November 2024 during the current financial year. The Company issued a drawdown request of $50,000 on 28 June 2024, which was subsequently funded by the lender in July 2024. No further drawdowns were made by the Company. The loan of $50,000 owed by the Company to the lender was offset against subscriptions by the Jubber Super Fund for ordinary shares in the share placement capital raising announced by the Company on 1 August 2024, following shareholder approval at the Company’s AGM held on 28 November 2024.

  • On 28 March 2025, a new unsecured, interest free loan facility was signed with the Jubber Super Fund. The notional amount for the facility was $66,000. To the extent any drawdowns were made under the loan facility, the amount owing was to be offset against share placement subscription monies that were due to the Company for the issue of shares to the Jubber Super Fund under the share placement capital raising announced by the Company on 19 February 2025. The loan facility, however, remained undrawn throughout its term and terminated following the eventual issue of the shares to the Jubber Super Fund on 12 May 2025.

  • RL Holdings Pty Ltd, a director-related entity of Rory Luff (Mr Luff controls the entity).

  • A loan facility agreement was executed on 17 April 2024 which allowed the Company to drawdown funds of up to $100,000 in aggregate, on which interest of 10% per annum accrues. The repayment date of the facility was initially 30 June 2024, which was extended to 31 August 2024 before the end of the financial year ended 30 June 2024, and then subsequently extended again to 30 November 2024 during the current financial year. The Company issued a drawdown request of $50,000 on 28 June 2024, which was subsequently funded by the lender in July 2024. No further drawdowns were made by the Company. The loan of $50,000 owed by the Company to the lender was offset against

Consolidated Entity Disclosure Statement as at 30 June 2025

Basis of Preparation

This Consolidated Entity Disclosure Statement ( CEDS ) has been prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, reflecting the amendments to section 295(3A)(vi) and (vii) which clarify the definition of foreign resident as being an entity that is treated as a resident of a foreign country under the tax laws of that foreign country. These amendments apply for financial years beginning on or after 1 July 2024. The CEDS includes certain information for each entity that was part of the consolidated entity at the end of the financial year in accordance with AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements .

Determination of Tax Residency

Section 295(3B)(a) of the Corporation Acts 2001 defines Australian resident as having the meaning in the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. The determination of tax residency involves judgement as there are currently several different interpretations that could be adopted, and which could give rise to a different conclusion on residency. Section 295 (3A)(a)(vii) requires the determination of tax residency in a foreign jurisdiction to be based on the law of the foreign jurisdiction relating to foreign income tax.

  • In determining tax residency, the consolidated entity has applied the following interpretations: • Australian tax residency

  • The consolidated entity has applied current legislation and judicial precedent, including having regard to the Tax Commissioner's public guidance in Tax Ruling TR 2018/5.

  • Foreign tax residency

  • Where necessary, the consolidated entity has used independent tax advisers in foreign jurisdictions to assist in determining tax residency in those foreign jurisdictions and ensure compliance with applicable foreign tax legislation.

In accordance with subsection 295(3A) of the Corporations Act 2001, this consolidated entity disclosure statement provides information about each entity that was part of the consolidated entity at the end of the financial year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF SOUTH HARZ POTASH LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of South Harz Potash Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial report, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion the accompanying financial report of the Group, is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • (i) Giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2025 and of its financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

  • (ii) Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 , which has been given to the directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Material uncertainty related to going concern

We draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report which describes the events and/or conditions which give rise to the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and therefore the group may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

BDO Audit Pty Ltd ABN 33 134 022 870 is a member of a national association of independent entities which are all members of BDO International Ltd, a UK company limited by guarantee, and form part of the international BDO network of independent member firms. Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. In addition to the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern section, we have determined the matters described below to be the key audit matters to be communicated in our report.

Accounting for Share Based Payments

Key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
During the financial year ended 30 June 2025, the
Group granted options to key management personnel
and other employees.
Refer to Note 13 of the financial report for the
significant estimates and judgements applied to these
arrangements and for disclosure of the arrangements.
Share-based payments are a complex accounting area
due to the complex and judgemental estimates used in
determining the fair value of the share-based
payments in accordance with AASB 2 Share-Based
payment, we consider the Group’s calculation of the
share-based payments expense to be a key audit
matter.
Our procedures included, but were not limited to:

Reviewing market announcements and board
meeting minutes to ensure all share-based
payments have been recognised;

Reviewing the relevant supporting documentation
to obtain an understanding of the contractual
nature, terms and conditions of the share-based
payments arrangements;

Evaluating management’s method for calculating
the fair value of the share-based payments,
including assessing valuation inputs, scrutinising
judgements related to the likelihood of non-
market performance vesting conditions being
satisfied, and using internal specialists where
appropriate;

Assessing the adequacy of the related disclosures
in the financial report.

Carrying value of capitalised exploration & evaluation expenditure

Key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
The carrying value of capitalised exploration and
evaluation assets as at 30 June 2025 is disclosed in
Note 9 of the financial report.
The Group has adopted the accounting policy to
capitalise acquisition costs relating to the acquisition
of original exploration and evaluation expenditure and
expense any ongoing exploration activities.
As the carrying value of exploration and evaluation
assets represents a significant asset of the Group,
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 reporting date;

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 board meeting minutes;

==> picture [78 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

Key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
we considered it necessary to assess whether any facts
or circumstances exist to suggest that the carrying
amount of this asset should be subject to impairment
testing.
Judgement is applied in determining the treatment of
exploration expenditure in accordance with Australian
Accounting Standard AASB 6 Exploration for and
Evaluation of Mineral Resources. As a result, this is
considered a key audit matter.

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

Considering whether there are any other facts or
circumstances existing to suggest impairment
testing was required; and

Assessing the adequacy of the related disclosures
in the financial report.

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.

Responsibilities of the directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of:

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.
