The increase in the earnout liability since December 31, 2025 was a result of:

 

● the increase in value of shares (US$1.01 per share to US$1.88 per share at June 30, 2026); and

 

● the probabilities relating to milestone 5 were unchanged based on the status of the permits at end of reporting period. The company is actively undertaking initiatives to resecure permitting and should these be fruitful, a reassessment of the earnout liability would follow.

 

The fair value of the earnout liability was determined using a probability-weighted undiscounted cash flow approach with no discount rate adjustment, considering the probability of achieving milestones (Level 3 input), and using the assumed stock price (Level 1 input: $1.01 and $1.88 as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026, respectively). Sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the impact of changes in the inputs as follows:

 

● A stock price range of $4.0 to $8 would result in a potential aggregate value of the Earnout Shares in the range of $39.2 million to $78.4 million.

 

● A decrease in the probability of achieving milestones (excluding milestone 5) by 10% would decrease the fair value of the earnout liability by $1.8 million to $16.6 million.

 

● If the probability of achieving milestones (excluding milestone 5) was increased to 100%, the fair value of the earnout liability would increase by $37.6 million to $56.0 million.

 

The impact of the earnout liability on earnings per share is explained in Note 13 of the Group’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.
