 addition, reliant on access to water for the cultivation of oil seeds, which we then use to produce our products. Should we not have access to reliable electricity supply or should our suppliers have limited access to water or experience infrastructure challenges, this could have a material adverse effect on our access to oil seeds and therefore our business, operating results, cash flows, financial condition and future growth.

Water, as a resource, is becoming increasingly limited as global demand for water increases and extreme temperatures become mundane. A significant part of our suppliers’ operations requires the use of large volumes of water. In recent times, Australia has experienced prolonged periods of drought and there may be significant changes in the future to current water laws which could increase the cost or availability of water in reaction to extended periods of drought and extreme weather.

Our operating results may fluctuate, and our operating results could be adversely affected by various factors such as a decrease of product sales, price changes in response to competitive factors and increases in oil seed costs.

Our quarterly results of operations may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including fluctuation in the demand for our products and changes in the price of oil seeds, which directly affect the price of our products and may influence the demand for our products. Therefore, quarter-to-quarter comparisons of results of operations have been and will be impacted by the volume of such orders and shipments. In addition, our operating results could be adversely affected by, among others, the following factors: variations in the mix of product sales; price changes in response to competitive factors; increases in oil seed costs and other significant costs; increases in utility costs (particularly electricity), and interruptions in plant operations resulting from the interruption of oil seed and other raw material supplies.

Our revenue may not achieve budget in FY 2025 while we expend capital to expand our Cootamundra facility and construct our new Queensland facility.

The Company’s operation in fiscal year 2025 may be reduced substantially from our original projections while we expend capital to construct our new Queensland facility due to factory break down or overhaul or spec adjustment. The Company expanded its existing Cootamundra facility with full operations occurring in August 2024. Presently, the Company is constructing a new crushing and production plant in Emerald, Central Queensland for a projected total cost of AUD$25 million. In connection with the funding of the new Queensland plant, the Company has received government support through an Industrial Partnership Program through CQ Oilseeds Pty Ltd. and its parent entity, Energreen Nutrition Australia Pty Ltd., in the amount
