NOVONIX Overview
NOVONIX Limited (ASX: NVX) is a leading battery technology company developing and scaling advanced materials and equipment critical to the lithium-ion battery supply chain. With a mission to enable cleaner energy solutions and reduce dependence on foreign supply, NOVONIX is commercializing U.S.-made synthetic graphite, a designated U.S. Critical Mineral, and supporting energy independence through domestic production. The Company’s patented technologies offer more energy-efficient and environmentally responsible alternatives to Chinese-dominated methods, to strengthen national security and drive local impact.
In the first half of 2025, NOVONIX continued the advancement toward commercial-scale production at its Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, which is set to become North America’s first large-scale synthetic graphite manufacturing plant. With planned 20,000 tpa capacity fully allocated under long-term offtake agreements with Panasonic Energy, Stellantis, and PowerCo, the Company continued equipment installation and commissioning while supplying anode material samples to 13 customers and potential customers across EV, energy storage, and industrial markets. NOVONIX’s anode materials business remains central to securing U.S. supply chains and creating high-quality domestic manufacturing jobs.

NOVONIX also continued to advance its Battery Technology Solutions business, including progress toward commercializing its patented all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis process. These efforts further enhance the Company’s vertically integrated platform, enabling faster customer qualification, deeper engagement, and IP-driven growth across the global battery ecosystem.
Operational Structure at a Glance
NOVONIX is producing the materials and technologies that make lithium-ion batteries last longer, perform better, and serve the needs of the most demanding industries. Our synergistic operating structure, as depicted below, is integral to the company’s current business development and growth strategy.
NOVONIX Anode Materials
Global battery supply chains are facing heightened pressure from shifting trade policies, export controls, and escalating demand for critical minerals. China’s restrictions on graphite exports have amplified concerns around the security of supply for battery-grade materials. At the same time, recent policy developments and government policy in the United States, are accelerating the push to localize the battery materials ecosystem and reduce reliance on foreign sources.

The 45X production tax credit directly incentivizes domestic production of batteries and battery components, including synthetic graphite, while requiring material inputs to be free from ties to Prohibited Foreign Entities (PFE). As a 100% domestic manufacturer with no ties to PFEs, NOVONIX qualifies under these provisions without impacting any of its existing credits or offtake arrangements. With binding supply agreements in place with three Tier 1 battery makers and Phillips 66 Company as its largest shareholder, NOVONIX is well positioned to meet growing demand for compliant, high-performance anode materials and to play a leading role in strengthening North America’s energy security.
Our Riverside facility is poised to become the first large-scale synthetic graphite production site in North America, with its 20,000 tpa capacity fully allocated through long-term offtake agreements with Panasonic Energy, Stellantis, and PowerCo. These partnerships, alongside continued facility build-out and customer product qualification, reinforce our role as a leading provider of strategic critical minerals which strengthens the domestic battery materials supply chain.
Figure 1 *Agreements require final product qualification.
In the first two quarters of 2025, the Company supplied advanced samples of synthetic graphite material to 13 different customers and potential customers for their battery, energy storage, and industrial applications. In June 2023, the Company and LG Energy Solution ("LGES") entered into a joint development agreement ("JDA") to develop synthetic graphite anode material, upon successful development of which the parties intended to enter into a purchase agreement. On

July 1, 2025, the JDA formally expired in accordance with its terms. However, the Company continues to actively work with LGES to jointly develop materials to LGES' specifications.
In the second quarter of 2025, the Company continued to progress equipment installation and commissioning at Riverside. This included installation of graphitization furnaces and finishing systems as well as raw material processing and micronization equipment for our initial production line. We now have a total of four furnaces fully installed at Riverside and completed installation of substantially all required mass production equipment for our lead customer, Panasonic.
U.S. tariffs on Chinese materials, including those announced by Commerce this year, as discussed below, are expected to further support the Company’s competitive position. However, tariffs may also affect the cost and timing of key construction inputs. The full impact of broader macroeconomic conditions is currently difficult to quantify. We will continue to closely monitor key macroeconomic trends, ongoing supply chain issues, and the impacts of tariffs and will provide updated timing expectations for the Company’s key activities as we are able.
Executed Purchase and Sale Agreement for Enterprise South Land
To support growing customer demand, NOVONIX is continuing to advance plans for a second large-scale synthetic graphite facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. In April, the Company signed a definitive agreement to purchase a 182-acre site in the Enterprise South Industrial Park, following

unanimous approvals from the City of Chattanooga, Hamilton County, and the Chattanooga Industrial Development Board.
Upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, the land will be acquired for approximately US$5 million. This new facility is expected to reach an initial production capacity of 31,500 tpa and is anticipated to create 450 to 500 full-time jobs. With this initial capacity at Enterprise South and its existing Riverside facility, which is scaling up to 20,000 tpa, NOVONIX will have total production capacity of over 50,000 tpa in Chattanooga.
The Company is expected to receive approximately US$54 million in total net tax and other benefits from the City of Chattanooga and Hamilton County over a 15-year period, contingent upon meeting specific conditions outlined in the agreement. The Company does not intend to close on the purchase of the Enterprise South land until such time as the conditions precedent related to the conditionally committed US$754 million loan ($692 million in principal and $62.8 million in capitalized interest) from the Loan Programs Office of the U.S. Department of Energy have been satisfied.
Technology License Agreement with Harper International
In January, NOVONIX entered into an exclusive license agreement with its long-time technology partner, Harper International Corporation (“Harper”), for the rights and use of its continuous, induction-based graphitization furnace technology.
In December 2020, NOVONIX and Harper entered into an exclusive use agreement under which the parties agreed to develop innovative graphitization furnace technology to be used to produce synthetic graphite anode material for the lithium-ion battery sector. This partnership provided for commitments from NOVONIX to purchase from Harper, and from Harper to develop and exclusively supply NOVONIX with proprietary systems for thermal processing material for the battery anode market.
The license agreement expands upon the relationship and provides NOVONIX the right to an exclusive license to Harper’s technology on which its continuous graphitization furnaces operate. No later than December 2025, NOVONIX must make an initial payment to gain a license to design and develop graphitization furnace technology for its internal use. NOVONIX will have the exclusive license to use the technology to further develop the furnaces used for the thermal production of graphite material for use in the battery anode market. Upon equipment meeting certain performance objectives, and NOVONIX’s payment of additional licensing fees, the license will expand to include NOVONIX’s right to build equipment using the licensed technology, either

U.S. Department of Commerce Announces Preliminary Determinations
In the second quarter, the U.S Department of Commerce announced its preliminary affirmative determination to impose up to 721% of countervailing duty (“CVD”) tariffs on synthetic and natural graphite anode material from China. In February, the International Trade Commission (“ITC”) announced its preliminary determination asserting that China suppressed the establishment of the graphite industry in the United States (and elsewhere) by exporting artificially cheap graphite which is a key component of lithium-ion batteries.
In July 2025, Commerce announced its intention to impose AD tariffs of 93.5% on anode active material (“AAM”), which includes synthetic and natural graphite imports from China. The effective tariff rate for AAM is now 160%, which includes the previously announced CVD tariffs of 11.5% placed by Commerce in May, President Trump’s blanket 30% tariffs on goods from China, and 25% Section 301 tariffs implemented by USTR last year. This decision underscores the strategic importance of building a domestic supply chain for critical minerals, including synthetic graphite, in North America. It affirms our business strategy as well as the diversification strategy of our customers to source critical battery materials and components locally. NOVONIX, with the most advanced synthetic graphite production facility in North America, will be increasing significantly the United States production of an essential strategic mineral while strengthening American manufacturing, and creating high-quality jobs locally.
The AD investigation determines whether the graphite is being sold at less than fair value (“dumped”), while the CVD investigation previously announced on May 1, 2025, determines whether the Chinese government is subsidizing the production and supply of graphite AAM to the United States. The additional AD tariff announced by Commerce in July will now stack onto the previously announced CVD tariffs. The final determinations for both the AD and CVD investigations are expected to be issued around December 5, 2025.
NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions
NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions (“BTS”), based in Nova Scotia, Canada, is the Company’s hub for research, development, and testing across anode and cathode materials, cell prototyping, and precision battery testing hardware. Founded in 2013 by Dr. Chris Burns and researchers from Dalhousie University, BTS was acquired by NOVONIX in 2017.

innovation, under which NOVONIX holds full ownership of resulting intellectual property with no ongoing obligations to Dalhousie University.
BTS plays a core role in the advancement of NOVONIX’s proprietary technologies, including its all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis process. The team supports internal development and external customers through a range of services, including cell design, materials prototyping, performance testing, and evaluation protocols. These capabilities are enabled by NOVONIX’s internal battery pilot line and cutting-edge infrastructure, including its proprietary Ultra-High Precision Coulometry (UHPC) systems.
NOVONIX’s UHPC systems are widely used by leading cell makers and OEMs for their unmatched accuracy in measuring battery degradation and performance, with adoption by 80% of the top Chinese cell manufacturers and over 50% of global automotive OEMs. In 2024, NOVONIX partnered with Voltaiq to integrate UHPC systems with advanced analytics and machine learning tools to enhance battery quality control and data insights. Additionally, BTS now offers Gamry Instruments as part of integrated UHPC platforms, expanding the scope of electrochemical testing capabilities for customers seeking deeper insight into materials behavior and device performance.
As the global battery industry faces constraints in infrastructure, expertise, and development timelines, BTS provides a vital resource for manufacturers and developers seeking to accelerate innovation and reduce risk. With a highly specialized team and vertically integrated solutions across anode, cathode, and testing technologies, BTS remains a cornerstone of NOVONIX’s strategy to bring next-generation battery materials to market.
Patent Granted: Method For Making Low Surface Area Alloy Particulate with High Silicon Content for Silicon Alloy Anode Material
During the quarter, the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office granted to BTS a patent for its low surface area silicon alloy materials for possible use as anode active materials in lithium-ion battery applications (US 12,257,632 B2). This patent, developed through our partnership with Dr. Mark Obrovac at Dalhousie University, describes the process to generate battery anode alloy powders of high silicon content, relatively low surface area, and relatively large particle size. These attributes are desirable for stable, energy dense anode electrodes with the possibility of improving battery lifetime without sacrificing performance.
This innovation further demonstrates NOVONIX’s commitment to developing innovative material technologies with the potential of enabling long range EVs for the North American lithium-ion battery sector.

Cathode Materials
In the first half of 2025, NOVONIX Cathode Materials continued advancing its patented all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis technology, which offers a more sustainable way to produce high-performance battery materials.
NOVONIX sent first- and second-round cathode material samples to several Tier-1 battery manufacturers and is progressing discussions with OEMs and industry partners. With a foundational patent secured, the focus remains on scaling and commercialization.
Partnerships with CBMM and ICoNiChem
NOVONIX completed the first year of its joint development work with CBMM, the global leader in niobium products, to enhance nickel-based cathode materials using NOVONIX’s dry-process technology. The project included material testing and full-cell validation, with the goal of improving performance and reducing costs. Success could lead to future integration of CBMM’s products into NOVONIX’s production.
In October 2024, NOVONIX signed a Joint Collaboration Agreement with ICoNiChem to develop nickel-based cathode materials using recycled metals. The two-year, CAD $515,686 project is supported by funding from National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program and Innovate UK. The goal is to further improve the sustainability of NOVONIX’s cathode technology by incorporating recycled feedstocks such as cobalt and nickel compounds. To date, NOVONIX has qualified several raw materials generated by ICoNiChem using its all-dry, zero-waste process to produce mid- and high-nickel grades of NMC powder. This cathode powder is currently being evaluated in full lithium-ion battery cells. Commercial agreements may follow upon successful milestones or project completion.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Half-Year Ended June 30, 2025
Note 1 Basis of preparation
This condensed consolidated interim financial report for the half-year reporting period ended June 30, 2025 has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), as applicable to interim financial reporting.
This condensed consolidated interim financial report does not include all the notes normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2024 and any public announcements made by the Group during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company incurred a net loss of $20,135,547 (June 30, 2024: $28,710,957) and net operating cash outflows of $22,258,440 (June 30, 2024: $22,162,213) for the half-year ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the Company has a cash balance of $24,820,758 (December 31, 2024: $42,557,621) and net current liabilities of $3,838,792 (net current asset as of December 31, 2024: $11,055,453).

NOVONIX Limited |

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Half-Year Ended June 30, 2025
Note 1 Basis of preparation (continued)
The net loss and cash outflows incurred during the period principally relate to the Company continuing to build-out the Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with mass production starting in 2026 for our lead customer, Panasonic. This will involve significant capital expenditure to scale operations in line with customer offtake agreements, as well as current and future customer demand. The funding of these expansionary activities will require additional funding beyond the existing cash balance as of June 30, 2025, and forecasted customer inflows, in the twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. These conditions give rise to a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, and at amounts stated in the financial report.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is principally dependent upon one or more of the following:
The directors believe that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate as the Company has a strong history of being able to raise capital from debt and equity sources, including through the issue of:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Half-Year Ended June 30, 2025
Note 1 Basis of preparation (continued)
The Company is continuing to actively engage with strategic partners, customers and investors to source additional funding to support the Company’s growth and fund the planned expansionary activities.
The Company will continue to claim balances against the $100 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") Office of Manufacturing & Energy Supply Chains ("MESC"). During the half year ended June 30, 2025, the Company submitted $23.1 million in reimbursement requests to the DOE Office of MESC for investments made at its Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, received $7.9 million in reimbursement receipts during the six months ended June 30, 2025, and has received $27.1 million in reimbursement receipts from initial award of the Grant through June 30, 2025. The Company has $15.2 million that has been submitted for reimbursement from MESC related to the three months ended June 30, 2025, but has not yet been paid. As of June 30, 2025, the remaining balance to be claimed from MESC is $57.7 million.
In addition, in April 2024, the Company was selected by the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Allocation Program (the “48C program”) to receive a US$103 million 48C tax credit under the 48C program, to support production of critical battery materials from its Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. No funds have been claimed against the 48C tax credit mainly as the qualifying asset has not been placed in service as of June 30, 2025, and to the date of issuance of the interim financial statements.
This financial report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities and appropriate disclosures that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for, where applicable, the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, certain classes of property, plant and equipment and derivative financial instruments.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Half-Year Ended June 30, 2025
Note 1 Basis of preparation (continued)
There were no new, revised or amended standards adopted by the Group issued by the International Accounting Standards Board that are mandatory for the current reporting period.
There were no new, revised or amended accounting standards or interpretations not yet adopted by the Group for the current reporting period that are expected to have a material impact on the Group.
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 Group’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 were set out in the Annual Report for the period ended December 31, 2024. Except as noted in Note 5, no changes in critical accounting estimates were made during the six-month period ended June 30, 2025.

Note 2 Segment reporting
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Executive Key Management Personnel (Chief Operating Decision Makers or “CODMs”) in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Group is managed primarily on an operational basis. Operating segments are determined on the basis of financial information reported to the Board.
The CODMs have identified three operating segments being Battery Materials, Battery Technology, and Graphite Exploration. The Battery Materials segment develops and manufactures battery anode materials, and the Battery Technology segment develops battery cell testing equipment, performs consulting services and carries out research and development in battery development (inclusive of cathode technology). The Graphite Exploration segment involves exploration and evaluation activity, as well as maintenance and potential future development of the Mt Dromedary natural graphite deposit.
Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments
Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the CODMs, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Group.
Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of the economic value from the asset. In most instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location.
Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment.
The following items for revenue, expenses, assets, and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core operations of any segment:

Intangible assets, other than goodwill, have finite useful lives. The current amortisation charges for intangible assets are included under depreciation and amortisation expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life.
The Company performs its annual impairment testing on June 30 each year. For the purposes of impairment testing, the cash generating unit has been defined as the business to which the goodwill relates where individual cash flows can be ascertained for the purposes of discounting future cash flows.

For the 2025 annual impairment test, the recoverable amount of the Cash-Generating Unit (“CGU”) was determined using a ‘Fair Value Less Costs to Sell’ (“FVLCS”) approach, based on the current Riverside Project Plan, which assumes commercial offtake will commence in 2026.
The FVLCS calculation involves significant estimates and assumptions, including projected volumes, growth rates, and gross margins, which are used to estimate future cash flows. This valuation is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs.
The present value of expected cash flows was determined by applying a discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the CGU.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 5 Non-current assets – Intangible assets (continued)
As of June 30, 2025, the recoverable amount of the NOVONIX Anode Materials CGU (“NAM CGU”) exceeded its carrying amount; therefore, no impairment was recognized.
Cash flow projections used in the valuation are based on financial budgets approved by management and the Board, covering a 10-year period. Management determined this horizon to be appropriate to reflect the Company’s binding customer contracts and the anticipated production ramp-up to full capacity by 2028, at which point operations are expected to normalize.
Key assumptions used in the FVLCS calculation include:
Management acknowledges that the estimates and assumptions used in these calculations are subject to change but does not believe that reasonably possible changes in any one key assumption would result in the carrying amount of the NAM CGU exceeding its recoverable amount.
Aside from the above noted change in revenue sales price expectations supported by the recent US DOC preliminary rulings, all other key assumptions disclosed above are consistent with the prior year.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 7 Unsecured convertible loan notes and derivative financial instruments
On June 21, 2023, the Group issued 45,221,586 convertible loan notes, with a face value of AUD$1.00 per note, a coupon rate of 4%, and a maturity date of June 7, 2028 for proceeds of US$30 million to LGES. The notes have a conversion price of AUD$1.60 per ordinary share. The convertible notes will mandatorily convert into ordinary shares upon acceptance of the first purchase order under the purchase agreement with LGES, although LGES may elect to convert some or all the notes prior to such time. No interest would be payable on the notes in these circumstances.
The convertible notes may be redeemed or converted (at the election of LGES) on the maturity date, in which case interest is payable in cash (in respect of a redemption) or "in-kind" (in the case of conversion).
As the Company does not have the right to defer settlement of the liability, it has appropriately classified its convertible notes and associated derivative financial instruments as current, in accordance with the amendments to IAS 1.
The convertible notes are presented in the consolidated balance sheet as follows:

The fair value of the conversion option (derivative financial liability) was determined using the Monte Carlo Simulation methodology. The derivative financial liability is carried at fair value at each reporting date, with gains or losses being recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. The remainder of the proceeds were allocated to borrowings with the liability recognized at amortized cost until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the notes. Interest is applied using the effective interest rate.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The derivative financial liability is classified as a Level 3 fair value in the fair value hierarchy as one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data.

During the 2021 financial year, the Group received grant funds of USD$3,000,000 from the Department of Economic and Community Development in the State of Tennessee, USA. The grant funds are conditional upon the Group creating, filling and maintaining 290 jobs in the State of Tennessee.
The grant becomes fully earned if 90% of the performance target is achieved by March 2026 and is repayable in full if a minimum of 50% of the performance target is not achieved by March 2026. The grant is proportionately repayable between 50% and 90% of the performance target being achieved.
Accordingly, as of June 30, 2025, the full amount of the grant has been deferred and classed as a contract liability and will either be released to income (in full or proportionately) or repayable (in full or proportionately) depending on the performance target achieved by March 2026. Income has not been recognized at June 30, 2025, as the Company cannot reliably measure compliance of the conditions attaching to the grant with “reasonable assurance” to determine the grant has become receivable.

Preparation of Interim Financial Statements for Users in Multiple Jurisdictions
The Group has prepared the interim financial statements to conform to the requirements and needs of users of the financial statements located in both Australia and the U.S.
For U.S users, the Group has prepared the interim financial statements to conform to the requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. Consistent with U.S. domestic registrants, the Group has labelled the interim financial information “unaudited” because the interim financial information is not subject to an audit by our independent registered public accounting firm. The auditor’s independence declaration and independent auditor’s review report are included within this filing to meet the requirements of Australian laws and regulations and are furnished, not filed, for the purposes of incorporation of the related financial statements in any U.S. registration document.
For Australian users, the Group has prepared the interim financial statements to conform to the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting. A review of the interim financial information has been performed by the Group’s independent auditors to meet the requirements of the Australian Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and users should refer to the auditor’s independence declaration and independent auditor’s review report included within this filing.

Independent auditor's review report to the members of
NOVONIX Limited
Report on the half-year financial report
Conclusion
We have reviewed the half-year financial report of NOVONIX Limited (the Company) and the entities it controlled during the half-year (together the Group), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 30 June 2025, the consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated statement of cash flows and consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the half-year ended on that date, selected explanatory notes and the directors' declaration.
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 NOVONIX Limited does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including:
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 (ASRE 2410). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the half-year financial report section of our report.
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional & Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to the audit of the annual financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

Material uncertainty relating to going concern
We draw attention to Note 1 in the half-year financial report, which describes the directors’ assessment of the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. The events or conditions as stated in Note 1 indicate 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.
Responsibilities of the directors for the half-year financial report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001, including giving a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the half-year 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 30 June 2025 and of 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.
