Québec, Canada • Ore mined of 361,883 wet metric tonnes (wmt) was 12% higher quarter on quarter (QoQ) meeting strong demand from the mill. • Process plant utilisation at 93% was a new record following continued incremental improvements. • Lithium recovery for the quarter was also a record at 73%, up 4% on the back of excellent operating performance from mill operations. • Improved underlying operating metrics delivered record spodumene production of 58,533 dry metric tonnes (dmt), up 35% QoQ at an average grade of 5.2% (Li₂O). • Spodumene sales were 66,980 dmt for the June 2025 quarter reflecting prior guidance that sales volumes for H2FY25 would be skewed 70% to the June quarter to capture higher forward sales prices compared to spot market prices. • The average realised selling price (FOB) decreased by 8% to $1,054/dmt (4% decrease to US$682/dmt) versus the prior quarter, despite lithium index prices falling 15-20% QoQ and higher sales into the international lithium market resulting in higher seaborne freight charges. • NAL revenue of $71 million1 reflected higher sales volumes partially offset by lower average realised selling prices. • Unit operating costs (FOB, per tonne sold) for NAL decreased 10% QoQ to $1,232/dmt. Unit operating costs in USD terms decreased by 5% to US$791/dmt. Unit cost of production fell to US$737/dmt. • On a full year basis, concentrate sales were up 32% and unit operating cost sold (FOB) was down 9%, which was offset by average realised selling price (FOB) being down 16% due to weak market price conditions. • All FY25 guidance metrics have been successfully achieved. Corporate • Subject to shareholder approval by both Sayona shareholders and Piedmont Lithium stockholders, the proposed merger of the two companies is targeted to complete on 12 August 2025. The Sayona Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) will occur on 31 July 2025. • The balance of cash and cash equivalents at the end of the June 2025 quarter was $72.3 million, a $16.6 million decrease from the equivalent balance of $88.9 million at 31 March 2025. Cash decreased due to a $12 million loss from NAL operations offset by JV partner contributions of $8 million, $5 million loss from Group operations, $4 million of NAL sustaining capital expenditure, and $4 million of merger transaction costs. The Company continues to drive disciplined spending practices to reduce cash costs. • FY26 guidance will be provided with the FY25 Full Year Results in late August 2025. 1 All references to currency are Australian dollars (A$) unless otherwise noted. |

The June 2025 quarter marked a significant step forward for Sayona, with North American Lithium delivering record-breaking operational results that highlight the momentum and resilience of our team and operations. Spodumene concentrate production hit a new high of 58,533 dmt - up 35% quarter-on-quarter while mill utilisation and lithium recovery both set new benchmarks at 93% and 73%, respectively. These impressive results reflect the cumulative benefits of ongoing process improvements and disciplined execution across the site. Sales totalled 66,980 dmt for the quarter, in line with our strategy to skew shipments to Q4FY25 to deliver against stronger forward pricing. Despite a softer spot pricing environment related to market conditions, our realised average selling price of $1,054/dmt (FOB) significantly outperformed lithium price index benchmarks, demonstrating the effectiveness of our forward sales strategy. Importantly, unit operating costs fell 10% to $1,232/dmt (US$791/dmt), while the unit cost of production decreased to US$737/dmt, highlighting the operating leverage from increased throughput and efficiency initiatives. The record performance at NAL capped off a year of 31% growth in annual production and a 9% reduction in unit costs compared to FY24. While realised prices declined due to weak market conditions, we are encouraged by the recent uptick in lithium index pricing, which has improved by over US$150/t since quarter-end. On the ESG front, we continued to progress studies supporting the permitting of NAL expansion. Our TRIFR improved further this quarter, bolstered by strong hazard reporting and consistent field leadership, with no lost time injuries recorded in either May or June 2025 — the best safety performance since the September 2024 quarter. Exploration efforts transitioned from drilling to evaluation and planning, following the completion of more than 129,000 metres of drilling at NAL and Moblan during CY2024. Updated Mineral Resource Estimates are expected by the end of August 2025. In Western Australia, we made encouraging progress at Mt Edon and the Pilbara tenements, including a new research collaboration to investigate rubidium extraction and refinement. Finally, we are rapidly advancing our proposed merger with Piedmont Lithium to form Elevra Lithium. With all regulatory approvals now secured and shareholder meetings scheduled for 31 July, we continue to work towards the completion of the transaction in early August 2025. The merged business will emerge as a premier North American lithium producer with global scale, a balanced leadership team, and a strong foundation for long-term shareholder value creation. Mr Lucas Dow Managing Director and CEO |

No lost time injuries occurred in either May or June 2025 marking the best safety performance since the September 2024 quarter. We have continued to focus on lead indicators including increased reporting of hazardous conditions/near-miss incidents and improved commentary on work cards during the quarter. There has been a material effort and leadership of in-field activities ensuring we rigorously carry out planned prevention activities. We have further work to do, however, we are encouraged by the improvements we have made to date and we will continue to build from this foundation. 2 All figures are reported in 100% terms. Numbers presented may not add up precisely to the totals provided due to rounding. 3 Average realised selling price is calculated on an accruals basis and reported in $/dmt sold, FOB Port of Québec. 4 Unit operating cost sold is calculated on an accruals basis and includes mining, processing, transport, port charges, site-based general and administration costs and cash based inventory movements, and excludes depreciation and amortisation charges, freight and royalties. It is reported in $/dmt sold, FOB Port of Québec. ESG and Community Engagement During the June 2025 quarter, Sayona initiated several studies that are required to support permit applications relating to a potential expansion of the NAL operations. The NAL Monitoring Committee met on 22 May 2025. During this session, a groundwater specialist presented the findings of hydrogeological studies conducted by the Société de l'eau souterraine Abitibi-Témiscamingue, along with other environmental organisations, regarding the NAL operations. The meeting also discussed the operational, health and safety, environmental, and community results for the operations over the January to March 2025 quarter. The tender process for baseline studies at Moblan continued during the quarter. Studies underway to support permitting of NAL expansion. |

Mine operations during the June 2025 quarter focused on ore production to ensure sufficient feedstock to the mill. Total material movement (inclusive of ore mining and waste volumes) decreased slightly taking advantage of an operational decision to leave uncovered ore in the pit during the March 2025 quarter to avoid additional costs from ROM material rehandling. Additionally, less waste was mined during the quarter due to a wider, more consistent ore zone than has been encountered in recent quarters which reduced the strip ratio. The feed grade of ore delivered to the ROM stockpile averaged 1.17% Li2O for the June 2025 quarter, which was slightly above the previous quarter. Mining operations across Phases 2 and 3 are becoming more consistent as full benches are developed across areas that were previously hilly and difficult to access during early mining operations. Production Record production of 58,533 dmt (up 35% QoQ) of spodumene concentrate at an average grade of 5.2% Li2O for the quarter reflects strong performance of both mine and mill operations. The mill processed 357,290 tonnes of ore (up 24% QoQ) at an average feed grade of 1.18% Li2O. Over the June 2025 quarter, mill utilisation was a record 93% with limited scheduled maintenance over the period and minimal unplanned downtime. The Li2O recovery for the June 2025 quarter was a record 73%, 4 percent higher than the March 2025 quarter, with excellent operational process discipline, effective use of magnetic separators and on-going improvement in the float circuit. The cumulative impact of the strong operational parameters resulted in all three months production exceeding 19kt and May 2025 setting a new NAL record of 19,895 tonnes. This strong performance reflects many incremental changes the operational team have successfully implemented across the mine, crushing and processing components of the site.  |

Revenue of $71 million is the second highest quarterly revenue achieved by NAL since shipments began in 2023 and was driven by a 148% QoQ increase in spodumene concentrate tonnes sold by NAL. Shipments were deliberately scheduled for the June 2025 quarter to take advantage of higher prices for international lithium market sales through forward sales arrangements. The higher sales volumes were partially offset by an 8% decrease in average realised selling prices to $1,054/dmt (4% decrease in USD terms to US$682/dmt) compared to the previous quarter. However, this significantly outperformed spot price movements over the June 2025 quarter which were down 15-20% QoQ. Lithium index prices have rallied by over US$150/t since the end of the June 2025 quarter. Realised pricing was negatively impacted by seaborne freight charges on approximately two thirds of sales volumes delivered into international markets during the quarter, compared to the March 2025 quarter which incurred no seaborne freight charges on cargos exclusively delivered into the Piedmont offtake agreement. Total spodumene concentrate sold during the June 2025 quarter was 66,980 dry metric tonnes. Two marine cargoes departed port during the quarter for sale to both Piedmont Lithium and international markets. During the June 2025 quarter the Company made limited additions to its forward sales program due to the decline in the forward curve for lithium products. The forward curve has partially recovered since the end of the quarter. A total of 25,221 tonnes of spodumene concentrate finished goods was stockpiled at NAL, in transit or at the Port of Québec as at 30 June 2025. Costs Unit operating costs (FOB) for NAL decreased 10% Quarter on Quarter to $1,232/dmt sold reflecting higher production and operating efficiencies. Unit operating costs in USD terms decreased by 5% to US$791/dmt sold. Total ore mining and waste stripping costs remained flat QoQ with a 12% increase in tonnes of ore mined. Total material moved decreased by 3% QoQ due to lower waste stripped and mined. Ore processing expenditure for the June 2025 quarter remained flat QoQ despite the 35% increase in concentrate production volume. This strong result reflects ongoing process improvements and efficiencies. In-pit and ROM inventory at the end of the June 2025 quarter was slightly higher than the prior quarter while finished goods inventory decreased QoQ with record volumes sold during the quarter. Unit operating costs per tonne produced (FOB) decreased over the quarter to US$737/dmt.  |

The final set of drilling results from Moblan have now been reported5 . Current activities are focussed on evaluation of drilling results and reviewing Resources and Reserves at both projects. Updates for both projects are expected prior to full year reporting at the end of August 2025. Western Australia, Australia Morella Lithium Joint Venture Project Sayona has a 49% equity in the Morella Lithium Joint Venture, which holds lithium rights in the Pilbara and South Murchison regions. The joint venture is managed by Morella Corporation Limited (ASX: 1MC). At Mt Edon in the South Murchison, work followed up December 2024 drilling which identified significant pegmatite hosted rubidium mineralisation. Assays up to 0.59% Rb2O and 0.63% Li2O were identified at the Sophie Pegmatite with broad zones up to 74m thick recorded along a ~600m strike extent. Further development drilling is planned with potential to lead to a maiden mineral resource. To help guide project development, a formal research agreement has been entered into with Edith Cowan University to characterise the Mt Edon rubidium mineralisation. The Stage 1 study will use drill samples to identify optimal steps in the direct extraction and purification of a rubidium end product. In the Pilbara JV area, exploration work included follow up of promising soil geochemical results at the West Wodgina lease. At Mallina, a ground gravity geophysical survey is scheduled to commence in July 2025 to help in the search for additional gabbro hosted spodumene pegmatite systems. Further mapping and geochemical sampling is also planned in other tenement areas to assess targets for potential maiden drill testing. Tabba Tabba Project Sayona holds a 100% interest in lithium rights over E45/2364 which is located directly south and along strike from the Wildcat Resources' (ASX: WC8) Tabba Tabba lithium deposit. Results of recent drilling in the northern portion of E45/2364 have continued to outline areas for further follow up drill testing. While drilling to date has not yielded significant lithium assay results, geochemical and geological data has enhanced the understanding of the tenement's potential both in the north of the tenement and along a six-kilometre strike of the Western Gabbro Corridor, located south along strike of the Wildcat lithium resource. Mapping and further identification of pegmatites along the Western Gabbro trend during the June 2025 quarter highlights the area's high potential for further discoveries. The trend will be a focus in the planned future fieldwork. 5 See ASX announcement on 15 July 2025. Pilbara Lithium and Gold Projects At Sayona's 100% Pilbara project area work included assessment of drill results at the Tabba Tabba project and field review of regional geochemical results at the Deep Well area. The Pilbara projects are prospective for lithium pegmatite mineralisation and, at the Mt Dove and Deep Well areas, for intrusion hosted gold mineralisation in a style similar to the nearby Hemi gold deposit. |

Under the terms of the agreement, Sayona will become the ultimate parent entity of the merged group, which will maintain a primary listing on the ASX and a secondary listing on the NASDAQ (the Transaction). The Transaction will result in an approximate 50% / 50% equity holding of shareholders of Sayona and Piedmont Lithium (on an undiluted basis) in the merged business immediately following the closing of the Transaction. During the June quarter, the remainder of the required regulatory approvals were received and regulatory filings completed such that the merger will be put to shareholder/stockholder meetings of both Sayona and Piedmont Lithium on 31 July 2025. As detailed in the Notice of Meeting dated 20 June 2025, the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) of Sayona shareholders will seek, amongst other things, approval of: • The Transaction; • The conditional placement of Sayona shares to Resource Capital Fund VIII, L.P. to raise approximately $69 million (~US$45M, before costs) at $0.032 per Sayona share (subject to completion of the Transaction); • The consolidation of Sayona shares through the conversion of every 150 Sayona shares held by a Sayona shareholder into 1 Sayona share; and • The change of name of the Company to Elevra Lithium. As announced on 23 July, 2025 the consolidation of Sayona shares (subject to shareholder approval at the EGM) is now expected to be undertaken after completion of both the merger and RCF capital raise. The current timetable expects the consolidation effective date to commence on 1 September and be completed by 11 September 20256 . 6 See ASX announcement on 23 July 2025. |

The Group's cash balance at 30 June 2025 was $72.3 million, a decrease of $16.6 million versus the prior quarter. Cash decreased during the June 2025 quarter due to a $12 million loss from operations at NAL, offset by JV partner contributions of $8 million, $5 million loss from Group operations, and $4 million of capital expenditure related to various NAL sustaining capital projects. The Group also paid $4 million of merger transaction costs during the June 2025 quarter. The NAL loss from operations of $12 million was higher than the prior quarter, despite a 148% increase in sales volumes and a 10% reduction in unit operating costs (per tonne sold). Despite an 8% decline in average realised selling prices, Sayona's price realisations outperformed spot prices demonstrating the effectiveness of our forward sales strategy.
