**D.** **Risk Factors**

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that you should consider before investing in our securities. These risks are described more fully below and include, but are not limited to, risks relating to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We will need to obtain funding to finance our growth and operations, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate certain operations, and we may be unable to adequately control our costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We face significant challenges in our attempt to develop our materials to produce them at volumes with acceptable performance, yields and costs. The pace of development in materials science is often not predictable. We may encounter substantial delays or operational problems in the scale-up of our anode materials production or the commercialization of our cathode materials technology.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The systems, equipment and processes we use in the production of our anode materials are complex, and we are subject to many operational risks that could substantially increase our costs, limit the operational performance of our anode materials operations, and adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our failure to achieve existing or target customers' product specifications for our anode materials or otherwise engage target customers successfully and convert such contacts into meaningful orders in the future would have a material adverse effect on our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•If we are unable to attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel, or labor shortages, turnover, or labor cost increases exist, our ability to compete or scale our manufacturing could be harmed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•If we do not satisfy the terms of our DOE grant, we may be unable to be reimbursed under or otherwise receive any or all of the funds or other benefits under the grant, may be required to return unused funds, and may be subject to claims or penalties, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We may not qualify for tax credits available to U.S. producers of graphite or otherwise realize any of the benefits of such tax credits due to a change in current tax law, our inability to satisfy the requirements for realizing such benefits or factors outside our control.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our reliance on certain limited or sole source suppliers subjects us to a number of risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The battery technology market continues to evolve and is highly competitive.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our anode materials business is subject to fluctuating and potentially unfavorable market and other conditions for graphite.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our future growth and success will depend on our ability to sell effectively to large customers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We depend, and expect to continue to depend, on a limited number of customers for a significant percentage of our revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our commercial relationships are subject to various risks which could adversely affect our business and future prospects including our ability to establish certain supply relationships.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our business and future growth depend substantially on the growth in demand for batteries for grid energy storage and electric vehicles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our projected operating and financial results rely in large part upon assumptions and analyses we have developed. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating results may be materially different from our projected results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We may not be able to accurately estimate the future supply and demand for our materials and equipment, which could result in a variety of inefficiencies in our business and hinder our ability to generate revenue. If we fail to accurately predict our manufacturing requirements or prices of components increase, we could incur additional costs or experience delays.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We have a history of financial losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses in the near future.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Phillips 66 has certain rights as a shareholder that are not equal to those of other shareholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Global political, economic and financial conditions (as well as the indirect effects flowing therefrom) could negatively affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our systems and data may be subject to disruptions or other security incidents, and we may face alleged violations of laws, regulations, or other obligations relating to handling our employees' personal data or confidential data of our customers and other business partners that could result in liability and adversely impact our reputation and future sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our operations are subject to significant risk of safety incidents, which could result in harm to our workers, damage to our property and delays in our production that would adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•From time to time, we may be involved in litigation, including product liability or third-party intellectual property claims, regulatory actions or government investigations and inquiries, which could have an adverse impact on our profitability and consolidated financial position.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•From time to time we may enter into negotiations for acquisitions, dispositions, partnerships, joint ventures, collaborative research agreements, or investments that are not ultimately consummated or, if consummated, may not be successful.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our facilities or operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of natural disasters and other catastrophic events.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Issues relating to the use of new and evolving technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence ("AI"), in our business could adversely affect our business and operating results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Terrorist activity, acts of war and political instability around the world could adversely impact our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We are subject to substantial regulation, and unfavorable changes to, or our failure to comply with, these regulations could substantially harm our business and operating results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We are subject to environmental, health and safety requirements which could adversely affect our business, results of operation and reputation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to administrative, civil and criminal fines and penalties, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our success depends upon our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our materials and technologies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We may be subject to claims by third parties asserting misappropriation of intellectual property, or claiming ownership of what we regard as our own intellectual property.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We may be unable to obtain intellectual property rights or our patent applications may not result in issued patents or our patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from interfering with our commercialization of our products.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Changes in patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our technologies and processes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We may be unable to obtain third-party intellectual property rights or technology necessary to develop and commercialize our materials and equipment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•An active U.S. trading market may not be sustained.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The trading price and volume of the ADSs may be volatile, and purchasers of the ADSs could incur substantial losses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Future sales of our ordinary shares or ADSs or the anticipation of future sales could reduce the market price of our ordinary shares or ADSs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable reports about our business, the price of the ADSs and their trading volume could decline.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We do not currently intend to pay dividends on our securities and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of the ADSs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The dual listing of our ordinary shares and the ADSs may negatively impact the liquidity and value of the ADSs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•U.S. investors may have difficulty enforcing civil liabilities against our company, our directors or members of senior management and the experts named in this annual report.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Australian takeover laws may discourage takeover offers being made for us or may discourage the acquisition of a significant position in our ordinary shares or ADSs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Holders of ADSs will not be directly holding our ordinary shares and your right to participate in in any future preferential rights offering, vote your shares, may be limited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•You may be subject to limitations on the transfer of your ADSs and the withdrawal of the underlying ordinary shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•ADS holders' rights to pursue claims are limited by the terms of the deposit agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We and the depositary are entitled to amend the deposit agreement and to change the rights of ADS holders under the terms of such agreement, and we may terminate the deposit agreement, without the prior consent of the ADS holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•ADS holders have limited recourse if we or the depositary fail to meet our respective obligations under the deposit agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from a number of rules under the U.S. securities laws that apply to public companies that are not foreign private issuers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•As a foreign private issuer we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards, and these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional cost and expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We are an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act and will be able to avail ourselves of reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, which could make our ordinary shares and ADSs less attractive to investors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We have incurred and will continue to incur significant, increased costs as a result of operating as a company with ADSs that are publicly traded in the United States and will incur increased costs as a result of becoming a recipient of United States government funding and incentives, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls or fail to identify and remediate our material weaknesses thereof, we may be unable to accurately report our results of operations, meet our reporting obligations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence in our Company and the market price of the ADSs may be negatively impacted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We currently report our financial results under IFRS, which differs in certain significant respects from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We are subject to risks associated with currency fluctuations, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates could impact our results of operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Our ability to utilize our net operating losses to offset future taxable income may be prohibited or subject to certain limitations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•If we are a passive foreign investment company, there could be adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•If a U.S. person is treated as owning at least 10% of our ordinary shares, such holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Future changes to tax laws could materially adversely affect our company and reduce net returns to our shareholders.

**Risks Related to Our Business**

***We will need to obtain funding to finance our growth and operations, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate certain operations, and we may be unable to adequately control our costs.***

We require significant capital to develop and grow our business and expect to incur significant expenses, including those relating to acquisition of production equipment, facility expansion, research and development, property acquisition and maintenance, regulatory compliance, and sales as we scale our commercial operations and build and market our materials and offerings. We also expect our general and administrative costs to increase as we scale our operations. Our ability to generate operating cash flow and become profitable in the future will depend not only on our ability to successfully market our materials and offerings, but also to control our costs, and will require us to obtain additional funding.

We have applied for, received, and intend to continue to seek government support through grants, loans and tax or other incentives from federal and state governments in the U.S., and for our BTS business, provincial governments in Canada, and our ability to obtain and use funds from such programs, depends, among other things, on our ability to raise matching funding in a timely manner. For example, in the fourth quarter of 2023, we finalized our $100 million grant from the Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation ("CMEI Office") of the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") to expand domestic production of high-performance, synthetic graphite anode materials at our Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. To receive reimbursement under this grant, we are required to fund the applicable cost share. We also received a conditional loan commitment from the DOE through the EDF Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing ("ATVM") program for a direct loan of up to $754.8 million to be applied towards partially financing a proposed new facility in Chattanooga. We would need to raise the remainder of eligible project costs (and fund non-eligible project costs) with equity. For a description of the DOE grant, the EDF loan and certain tax incentives we have received and applied for, see *Item 4. Information on the Company— B. Business Overview — NOVONIX Anode Materials.* 

The application process for financial, tax and other support from the government is highly competitive, and we cannot predict whether we will ultimately be awarded or receive any additional grants, loans, including the EDF loan, or tax or other incentives. Our ability to obtain grants, loans or tax or other incentives from government entities in the future is subject to the availability of funds under applicable government programs, our ability to raise required cost-share and equity, approval of our applications to participate in such programs, achievement of milestones for funding, and ongoing compliance with various laws and regulations as described below.

------

As of December 31, 2025, we had $79.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. We require significant additional capital to achieve our plans to expand our production capacity for our anode materials to meet our existing customer commitments and anticipated customer demand. Additional capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, and will depend among other things on our creditworthiness and the capital markets. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our product candidates on terms that may not be favorable to us. Any additional capital-raising efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our current and future product and service offerings or delay, reduce or altogether cease certain operations or future commercialization efforts. See also *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors ("****We have a history of financial losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses in the near future*"), *Item 5*** *Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—****B. Liquidity and Capital Resources,*** and ***Item 18. Financial Statements.***

***We face significant challenges in our attempt to develop our materials to produce them at volumes with acceptable performance, yields and costs. The pace of development in materials science is often not predictable. We may encounter substantial delays or operational problems in the scale-up of our anode materials production or any eventual commercialization of our cathode materials technology.***

Developing materials that meet the requirements for wide adoption by our potential customers is a difficult undertaking. We are still in the development stage for certain of our materials and face significant challenges in producing our materials to required specifications and at commercial volumes. Some of the development challenges that could prevent the successful scale up of production of our materials include changes in product performance from small to large scale production, challenges in deployment of mass production equipment, and inability to produce materials cost effectively at large volumes. If we are unable to cost efficiently design, manufacture, market, and sell our materials, our margins, profitability and prospects would be materially and adversely affected. We have only produced anode materials with our proprietary continuous induction graphitization furnace in recent years, and for our BTS business, we only produced cathode materials in lab and small pilot volumes. Any delay in the manufacturing scale-up of our anode materials, our ability to achieve our customers' desired product specifications or the progression of our cathode synthesis technology of our BTS business would negatively impact our business as it will delay revenue generation and negatively impact our customer relationships.

Our Riverside facility in Chattanooga Tennessee, is targeted to produce anode materials of up to 20,000 tonnes per annum ("tpa"). We utilize new proprietary furnace technology developed in collaboration with Harper International Corporation ("Harper"). We have installed furnace systems at our Riverside facility and are continuing the commissioning of those systems to meet our production targets. Our ability to produce at targeted capacity is largely dependent upon Harper manufacturing and supplying furnace systems on a schedule that meets our needs, our successful implementation of the same, and our ability to recruit and retain an increased number of skilled staff focused on plant design, engineering and operations. Our production timelines have recently been adjusted due to delays in receiving equipment from our vendors, ultimately affecting our installation and commissioning schedules. The target production capacity of our Riverside facility is planned to help us meet our volume commitments under our supply or offtake agreements.

While we have continued a phased expansion plan to meet expected market demand growth, our plan is contingent on the successful satisfaction of several factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include, among others, our ability to obtain funding on attractive terms to enable further expansion of our current production facilities and our ability to expand our production capacity through the construction of new production facilities, acquisition, installation and commissioning of new equipment, and business acquisitions, joint ventures and other inorganic means. Any or all of these expansion paths may involve many risks, any of which could materially harm our business, including the diversion of management's attention from core business concerns, failure to effectively exploit acquired technologies, failure to successfully integrate acquired business or realize expected synergies or the loss of key employees from either our business or acquired businesses. If we are unable to execute on those expansion efforts for any reason, we may experience a delay in the manufacturing scale-up or the scale-up may not occur at all, which would result in the loss of customers and materially damage our business, prospects, financial condition, and operating results.

------

***The systems, equipment and processes we use in the production of our anode materials are complex, and we are subject to many operational risks that could substantially increase our costs, limit the operational performance of our anode materials operations, and adversely affect our business.***

We rely heavily on complex systems, equipment and processes for our operations and the production of our synthetic graphite anode materials. We are commissioning our furnace systems to become qualified to operate at large-scale production. The work required to integrate our systems, equipment, and processes into the production of our anode materials is time-intensive and requires us to work closely with Harper and other third-party suppliers to ensure they work properly for our proprietary battery materials technology. This work has involved and will continue to involve a significant degree of uncertainty and risk and may result in a delay in the scaling up of anode materials production or result in additional, unforeseen production costs. Any delay in the scale-up of our production would negatively impact our business as it will delay time to revenue and negatively impact our customer relationships and agreements. Even if we complete the commissioning of our systems and achieve volume production of our anode materials, if the cost, performance characteristics or other specifications of the materials fall short of our targets or our customer requirements, our sales, product pricing and margins could be adversely affected.

***Our failure to achieve existing or target customers' product specifications for our anode materials or otherwise engage target customers successfully and convert such contacts into meaningful orders in the future would have a material adverse effect on our business.***

Our ability to achieve our customers' desired specifications for our anode materials is critical to our meeting existing customer obligations and gaining new customers. Volume commitments under our offtake agreements with Panasonic Energy and PowerCo depend on our ability to produce anode materials that meet their specific product specifications. Other potential customers require the successful completion of certain development work before they will enter into any binding offtake agreement. Our success, and our ability to increase revenue and operate profitably, also depends in part on our ability to identify target customers and convert such contacts into meaningful orders or expand on current customer relationships. In addition to new customers, our future success depends on whether our current customers are willing to continue using our materials and equipment as well as whether their product lines continue to incorporate our materials and equipment.

The satisfaction of quality standards and milestones of delivering mass production volume samples will be required for final qualification with battery manufacturers. There is no assurance that these conditions will ultimately be satisfied. However, if future production requirements, or similar production requirements with other potential customers, are not met, or the materials produced are not of acceptable quality, we may lose these customers and lose credibility with other domestic and international battery manufacturers and automotive OEMs, any of which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our research and development efforts aim to create materials and equipment that are on the cutting edge of technology, but competition in our industry is high. To secure acceptance of our materials and equipment, we must constantly develop and introduce materials and equipment that are cost-effective and with enhanced functionality and performance to meet evolving industry standards. If we are unable to meet our customers' performance or volume requirements or industry specifications, or retain or convert target customers, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

------

***If we are unable to attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel, or labor shortages, turnover, or labor cost increase exist, our ability to compete or scale our manufacturing could be harmed.***

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain our executive officers, key employees and other highly skilled personnel, and our operations may be severely disrupted if we lose their services. As we build our operations and become better known, there is an increased risk that competitors or other companies will seek to recruit and hire our key personnel. The failure to attract, integrate, train, motivate and retain such key personnel could seriously harm our business and prospects.

In addition, we are highly dependent on the services of our senior technical and management personnel, including our executive officers, who would be difficult to replace. If any key personnel were to depart, we may not be able to successfully attract and retain senior leadership necessary to grow our business. We do not currently maintain "key person" life insurance on the lives of our executives or any of our employees. This lack of insurance means that we may not receive adequate compensation for the loss of the services of these individuals.

Similarly, challenging labor market conditions could create a qualified labor shortage. A sustained labor shortage or increased turnover rates within our employee base could lead to increased costs, such as increased overtime or financial incentives to meet demand or increased wage rates to attract and retain employees, and could negatively affect our ability to scale up manufacturing for our materials, adequately train our employees, and meet our production targets.

***If we do not satisfy the terms of our DOE grant, we may be unable to be reimbursed under or otherwise receive any or all of the funds or other benefits under the grant, may be required to return unused funds, and may be subject to claims or penalties, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.***

As a result of the DOE grant, we are required to comply with a number of laws and regulations and terms and conditions of the grant, including the preparation and furnishing of financial reports and other records. Relevant requirements include certain accounting requirements and complying with the cost allowability principles; the U.S. National Environmental Policy Act and other environmental, health and safety requirements; prevailing wage requirements; compliance with export control laws and regulations; requirements to perform work in the U.S. unless DOE grants a waiver; preferences for American-made equipment and products; requirements to substantially manufacture in the U.S. products embodying or produced through the use of a new invention developed under the grant, unless such manufacture is not commercially feasible and DOE agrees to foreign manufacture; requirements to grant liens in favor of the U.S. government on property acquired or developed with grant funds and restrictions on the sale or disposition of such property; data management requirements and restrictions on disclosing sensitive information; affirmative action and pay transparency requirements; requirements for cyber- and technology security, including employment of security officers; requirements to pre-approve participation by foreign nationals in the project; and requirements to pass-down certain of such requirements to our subrecipients and subcontractors. If we are unable to meet these requirements, we may be unable to be reimbursed under or otherwise receive any or all of the funds under the grant, may be required to return unused funds, and may be subject to claims or penalties, including the loss of our eligibility for continued participation in the grant program and other government programs. Other grants and loans for which we have applied would impose similar and potentially additional requirements and, in each case, use of such government funding subjects us to increased inspection and monitoring. We expect that the DOE's CMEI Office will, and the DOE's Office of Inspector General may, review our compliance, and the adequacy of our practices for maintaining compliance. In the event of improper or illegal activities, or false or misleading statements in our applications or submissions to the government, we would be subject to possible civil and criminal penalties, sanctions, or suspension or debarment from multiple government programs. The associated costs and risks may have a material adverse effect on our business.

------

***We may not qualify for tax credits available to U.S. producers of graphite or otherwise realize any of the benefits of such tax credits due to a change in current tax law, our inability to satisfy the requirements for realizing such benefits or factors outside our control.***

In 2024, we were selected to receive a $103 million tax credit under the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Allocation Program (the "48C program") to support production of critical battery materials from our Chattanooga, Tennessee production facility. The 48C program incentivizes clean energy property manufacturing and recycling, industrial decarbonization, and critical materials processing, refining, and recycling, and aims to foster the creation of high-quality jobs, curb industrial emissions, and bolster U.S. domestic production of vital clean-energy products and critical materials. Realization of the full amount of this tax credit is subject to satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 48C of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the "Code") and operational and employment plans set out in the application to the Internal Revenue Service, including the certification and placed-in-service requirements under the 48C program. See *Item 4. Information on the Company— B. Business Overview — NOVONIX Anode Materials*.

Under current U.S. tax law, including regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service, the production of graphite, including synthetic graphite, remains eligible for the Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit under Section 45X ("45X tax credits") of the Code. Enterprise South remains eligible for a potential 45X tax credit, which offers 10% of eligible production costs of critical minerals, including graphite, back to producers. However, while current eligibility is not impacted, these 45X tax credits phase down in 2031. There is also a risk that the treatment of synthetic graphite may be subject to change.

Our ability to receive any additional tax credits, satisfy the requirements for realizing 48C and other potentially available tax credits, and fully or partially utilize, monetize or otherwise benefit from these tax credits is subject to uncertainty and factors that we may not be able to control.

***The unavailability, reduction or elimination of, or uncertainty regarding, government and economic incentives or subsidies available to us, end-users or OEMs could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.***

We believe that, currently, the availability of government incentives and subsidies available to end-users and OEMs is an important factor considered by customers when purchasing EVs, and that growth in the battery market will depend in part on the availability and amounts of these subsidies and incentives for EVs. Currently, government programs, including in China and Europe, favor the purchase of EVs, including through disincentives that discourage the use of gasoline-powered vehicles. Similar tax credits or exemptions may change in the future which would adversely impact our business and financial condition. For example, if government laws or programs incentivizing the growth of the EV market are further reduced or eliminated, or the available benefits thereunder are exhausted earlier than anticipated, demand for EVs may decrease and our anticipated sales of EV battery products could be adversely affected. In addition, OEM customers may delay taking delivery of our battery products if they believe that certain EV incentives will not be available at a later date, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. Any further reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives or subsidies may result in the diminished competitiveness of the alternative fuel vehicle industry generally or EVs that use our batteries in particular.

***Our reliance on certain limited or sole source suppliers subjects us to a number of risks.***

Our anode materials business is dependent on our continued ability to source certain specialized systems, equipment, components and raw materials from a limited number of suppliers. Our ability to scale up our commercial production of synthetic graphite anode materials and meet our production targets depends on the successful and timely delivery, commissioning, operation and availability of, for example, the furnace systems developed in collaboration with and supplied by Harper. If the successful commissioning is delayed or the systems otherwise fail to perform as expected, we may be delayed or prevented from meeting our production targets or our obligations to customers under our offtake agreements, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.

------

We purchase certain of our systems, equipment, components and raw materials from limited sources of supply, and disruption of these sources could negatively affect our ability to produce materials. For example, we may source specialty petroleum needle coke, a key precursor to the synthetic graphite anode material we produce, from Phillips 66 or a select few other suppliers. Even where alternative sources of equipment, materials and components are available, the quality and cost of the alternative materials, regulatory and contractual requirements to qualify materials for use in our production, the time required to establish new relationships with reliable suppliers, and the time to potentially re-qualify products with customers could result in production delays and possible loss of sales. We have in the past and may continue to experience delays in acquiring equipment due to global supply chain issues as well as our dependence on single suppliers such as Harper. Our inability or delay in obtaining the systems, equipment components or raw materials needed for our business may harm our customer relationships or require us to find alternative supply sources at increased costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.

***The battery technology market continues to evolve and is highly competitive.***

The battery technology market in which we compete continues to evolve and is highly competitive. Certain energy storage technologies, such as lithium-ion battery technology, have been widely adopted, and current and future competitors may have greater resources than we do and may also be able to devote greater resources to the development of their current and future technologies. These competitors also may have greater access to customers and may be able to establish cooperative or strategic relationships among themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and competitive positioning. In addition, lithium-ion battery manufacturers may continue to reduce cost and expand supply of conventional batteries and therefore negatively impact the ability for us to sell our materials, equipment and services at market-competitive prices and yet at sufficient margins.

Automotive OEMs are researching and investing in energy storage development and production. We expect competition in energy storage technology and EVs to intensify due to increased demand for these vehicles and a regulatory push for EVs, continuing globalization, and consolidation in the worldwide automotive industry. Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in energy storage technology made by competitors may materially adversely affect the sales, pricing and gross margins of our business. If a competing technology is developed that has superior operational or price performance, our business will be harmed. Similarly, if we fail to accurately predict and ensure that our technology can address customers' changing needs or emerging technological trends, or if our customers fail to achieve the benefits expected from our materials, equipment and services, our business will be harmed.

We must continue to commit significant resources to develop our technologies in order to establish a competitive position, and these commitments will be made without knowing whether such investments will result in materials, equipment and services that potential customers will accept. There is no assurance we will successfully identify new customer requirements, develop and bring our materials, equipment and services to market on a timely basis, or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our materials, equipment and services obsolete or noncompetitive, any of which would adversely affect our business and operating results.

Customers will be less likely to purchase our materials, equipment and services if they are not convinced that our business will succeed in the long term. Similarly, suppliers and other third parties will be less likely to invest time and resources in developing business relationships with us if they are not convinced that our business will succeed in the long term. Accordingly, in order to build and maintain our business, we must maintain confidence among current and future partners, customers, suppliers, analysts, ratings agencies and other parties in our long-term financial viability and business prospects. Maintaining such confidence may be particularly complicated by certain factors including those that are largely outside of our control, such as our limited operating history, size and financial resources relative to our competitors, market unfamiliarity with our materials, equipment and services, any delays in scaling manufacturing, delivery and service operations to meet demand, competition and uncertainty regarding the future of energy storage technologies and our eventual production and sales performance compared with market expectations.

***Our anode materials business is subject to fluctuating and potentially unfavorable market and other conditions for graphite.***

Graphite is not a traded commodity like many base and precious metals, and its sales prices are generally not public. Sales agreements are typically negotiated on an individual and private basis with each potential customer. In addition, there are a limited number of producers of battery-grade graphite, most of whom are producers in China and may make it difficult for new market entrants by increasing their production capacity and lowering sales prices. Factors such as foreign currency fluctuation, supply and demand, industrial disruption and actual graphite market sale prices could have an adverse impact on our ability to sell our synthetic graphite anode materials profitably. If battery manufacturers use less graphite than expected, or if the demand for EV and energy storage grid batteries is less than anticipated, it could have a material adverse effect on the sales price, profitability and development strategy of our business.

The Company's ability to enter into offtake agreements and sell anode-grade graphite at an economic price may be impacted by subsidies and other governmental support measures provided by non-U.S. governments to non-U.S. anode-grade graphite producers. The U.S. Department of Commerce ("Commerce") has determined that the Chinese government is engaging in such activities and, in February 2026, announced a final decision that would impose anti-dumping and countervailing duties of at least 160% on anode-grade graphite imported to the U.S. from China. The International Trade Commission ("ITC") is expected to determine in March 2026 whether imports of anode-grade graphite from China have materially impeded the U.S. anode-grade graphite industry. If the ITC votes affirmatively, the 160% duties would be imposed on all anode-grade graphite imported from China. If the ITC votes negatively, no such duties would be imposed, allowing such graphite to be imported into the U.S., potentially at prices that may be below U.S. manufacturers' costs of production or otherwise at prices that we may not be able to match. China or other producers may seek to sell anode-grade graphite at low prices through third party countries, such as Indonesia and Morocco, including through transshipment or downstream processing arrangements. If the U.S. government does not take action (through a Commerce/ITC process or otherwise) to impose duties on such imports, our ability to sell graphite at an economic price could be materially and adversely affected.

***Our future growth and success will depend on our ability to sell effectively to large customers.***

Our current and potential customers are primarily battery manufacturers and automotive OEMs that tend to be large enterprises. Therefore, our future success will depend on our ability to effectively sell our materials, equipment and services to such large customers. Sales to these customers involve risks that may not be present (or that are present to a lesser extent) with sales to smaller customers. These risks include, but are not limited to, (i) increased pricing power and leverage held by large customers in negotiating contractual arrangements with us, (ii) higher minimum volume requirements that we may be unable to meet, (iii) longer sales cycles and the associated risk that substantial time and resources may be spent on a potential customer that elects not to purchase our materials, equipment or services, and (iv) requirements that we meet customer standards for their suppliers, including those relating to environmental, social and governance protocols and ISO standards, that we may be unable to meet.

Purchases by large organizations are frequently subject to budget constraints, multiple approvals and unanticipated administrative, processing and other delays. Finally, large organizations typically have longer implementation cycles, require greater product functionality and scalability, require a broader range of services, demand that vendors take on a larger share of risks, require acceptance provisions that can lead to a delay in revenue recognition and expect greater payment flexibility. All of these factors can add further risk to business conducted with these potential customers.

***We depend, and expect to continue to depend, on a limited number of customers for a significant percentage of our revenue.***

Our anode materials business is not yet generating revenue, and our plans to scale the business are dependent upon our collaborations with tier 1 customers such as Panasonic Energy and PowerCo resulting in sales of our anode materials to those parties. In addition, our ability to satisfy our commitments to such customers is dependent, among other things, on reaching the targeted production capacities at our Riverside facility and any other facilities we may build or otherwise develop.

------

Our Battery Technology Solutions ("BTS") business is currently our only business that is generating revenue, and BTS has generated most of its revenue from a limited number of customers. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the BTS had 2 customers, included in the consulting services revenue stream that accounted for approximately 11% and 11% of total revenues, respectively, and one major customer, included in the hardware sales revenue stream, that accounted for 8% of total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the BTS had two customers, included in consulting services revenue stream, that accounted for approximately 13% and 12% of total revenues, respectively. The Company announced on February 18, 2026, that it entered a binding term sheet for the proposed sale of its NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions business. The proposed transaction represents a divestiture of the Company's non-core business segment and aligns NOVONIX's strategic focus to establish a vertically integrated synthetic graphite supply chain in North America. If the divesture is completed, the Company will have no revenue until it scales its anode material business.

In addition, a number of factors outside our control could cause the loss of, or reduction in, business or revenues from any customer, including, without limitation, pricing pressure from competitors, a change in a customer's business strategy or financial condition, or change in market conditions. Our customers may also choose to pursue alternative technologies and develop alternative products in addition to, or in lieu of, our materials and equipment, either on their own or in collaboration with others, including our competitors. The loss of any major customer or key project, or a significant decrease in the volume of customer demand or the price at which we sell our materials and equipment to customers, could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

See *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors ("****We face significant challenges in our attempt to develop our anode and cathode materials to produce them at volumes with acceptable performance, yields and costs. The pace of development in materials science is often not predictable. We may encounter substantial delays or operational problems in the scale-up of our anode materials production or any eventual commercialization of our cathode materials technology****.").*

***Our commercial relationships are subject to various risks which could adversely affect our business and future prospects, including our ability to establish certain supply relationships.***

Many of our commercial relationships are conditional, subject to supply performance, market conditions, quality assurance processes, audits of supplier processes or other agreed upon conditions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy these conditions. If we are unsuccessful in meeting the demand for high-quality materials and equipment, our business and prospects will be materially adversely affected.

In addition, our business partners may have economic, business or legal interests or goals that are inconsistent with our goals. Any disagreements with our business partners may impede our ability to maximize the benefits of any partnerships and slow the commercialization of materials and equipment. Our arrangements may require us, among other things, to pay certain costs or to make certain capital investments, for which we may not have the resources. In addition, if our business partners are unable or unwilling to meet their economic or other obligations under any business arrangements, our business and prospects will be materially adversely affected.

Further, as we expand our anode materials manufacturing capabilities, we will rely on third-party suppliers for components and materials. Any disruption or delay in the supply of components or materials by our key third-party suppliers or pricing volatility of such components or materials could temporarily disrupt research or production of our anode materials until an alternative supplier is able to supply the required material. In such circumstances, we may experience prolonged delays, which may materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

------

***Our business and future growth depend substantially on the growth in demand for batteries for grid energy storage and electric vehicles.***

The demand for our materials is directly related to the market demand for EVs and batteries for grid energy storage. However, the markets we have targeted may not achieve the level of growth we expect during the time frame projected. For example, the current U.S. presidential administration has indicated its agenda will focus on deregulation, particularly with respect to environmental and climate change-related regulations, which could be detrimental to companies like ours that are focused on sustainable energy. If markets fail to achieve our expected level of growth, we may have excess production capacity and may not be able to generate enough revenue to obtain profitability. If the market for EVs or batteries for grid energy storage does not develop at the rate or in the manner or to the extent that we expect, or if critical assumptions that we have made regarding the efficiency of our energy solutions are incorrect or incomplete, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

***Our projected operating and financial results rely in large part upon assumptions and analyses we have developed. If these assumptions or analyses prove to be incorrect, our actual operating results may be materially different from our projected results.***

Management's projected operating and financial results reflect current estimates of our future performance. Whether actual operating and financial results and business developments will be consistent with our expectations and assumptions as reflected in our projections depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, including, but not limited to the factors described throughout this annual report. Unfavorable changes in any of these or other factors, most of which are beyond our control, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial results.

***We may not be able to accurately estimate the future supply and demand for our materials and equipment, which could result in a variety of inefficiencies in our business and hinder our ability to generate revenue. If we fail to accurately predict our manufacturing requirements or prices of components increase, we could incur additional costs or experience delays.***

It is difficult to predict our future revenues and appropriately budget for our expenses, and our views as to industry trends that may emerge may prove false, which could affect our business. Currently, there is limited historical basis for making judgments on the demand for our materials or equipment, or our ability to develop, manufacture, and deliver our materials or equipment, or our profitability in the future. If we overestimate our requirements, our suppliers may have excess inventory, which indirectly would increase our costs. If we underestimate our requirements, our suppliers may have inadequate inventory, which could interrupt manufacturing of our materials or equipment and result in delays in shipments and revenues. In addition, lead times for materials that our suppliers order may vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for each material at a given time. If we fail to order sufficient quantities of materials in a timely manner, the delivery of materials or equipment to our potential customers could be delayed, which would harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

Additionally, agreements for the purchase of certain components used in the manufacture of our materials and equipment may contain pricing provisions that are subject to adjustment based on changes in market prices of key components. Substantial increases in the prices for such components would increase our operating costs and could reduce our margins if we cannot recoup the increased costs. Any attempts to increase the announced or expected prices of our materials and equipment in response to increased costs of components could be viewed negatively by our potential customers and could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results.

***We have a history of financial losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses in the near future.***

We incurred net losses of $84.5 million, $74.8 million, and $46.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, and net operating cash outflows of $41.2 million $40.4 million, and $36.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 respectively. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had a cash balance of $79.9 million and $42.6 million, respectively, and net current assets of $3.9 million and $11.1 million, respectively.

------

We expect our expenses to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue to purchase additional production equipment associated with the manufacture of synthetic graphite. For example, in July 2021, we purchased commercial land and buildings in Chattanooga, USA for $42.6 million to expand our anode materials business and concurrently entered into a loan facility with DBR Investments Co. Limited for $30.1 million with an interest rate of 4.09%. The loan was fully drawn down as of December 31, 2025. The total liability at December 31, 2025 is $26.9 million. In addition, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to sales and marketing to the extent that such sales and marketing are not the responsibility of any future customers. We may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currently anticipate or that these efforts may not result in revenues, which would further increase our losses, impact our ability to repay our debt (including our $30 million principal amount of unsecured convertible notes issued to LGES) and require future capital raises to maintain the business. These conditions give rise to a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt (or raise substantial doubt as contemplated by PCAOB standards) as to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we were not able to continue as a going concern, or if there were continued doubt about our ability to do so, the value of your investment would be materially and adversely affected.

See *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors ("****We have incurred and will continue to incur significant, increased costs as a result of operating as a company with ADSs that are publicly traded in the United States, and will incur increased costs as a result of becoming a recipient of United States government funding and incentives, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.")***.

***Phillips 66 has certain rights as a shareholder that are not equal to those of other shareholders.*** 

In 2021, we consummated a transaction with Phillips 66 pursuant to which Phillips 66 purchased 77,962,578 ordinary shares of NOVONIX for a total purchase price of $150 million, and in 2025, Phillips 66 purchased an additional 12,771,392 ordinary shares as part of a private placement, and in 2025, received an additional 197,293 shares as part of S Vaidyanathan's non-executive Director remuneration. As of December 31, 2025, Phillips 66 beneficially owned approximately 11% of our ordinary shares (based on the number of our ordinary shares outstanding as of that date). Pursuant to the terms of our 2021 subscription agreement, Phillips 66 has the right to nominate one director to our Board of Directors (the "Board of Directors" or the "Board") and certain rights to be notified of, and participate in, issuances of shares by the Company (other than distributions of shares to the Company's shareholders on a pro rata basis). The interests of Phillips 66 may differ from our interests or those of our other shareholders, and it may not exercise its voting power in a manner favorable to our other shareholders.

***Global political, economic and financial conditions (as well as the indirect effects flowing therefrom) could negatively affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.***

In recent times, global political, economic and financial conditions have negatively affected businesses across a range of industries, including the energy storage industry. In addition, there are currently political and trade tensions among a number of the world's major economies, which have resulted in the implementation of tariff and non-tariff trade barriers, including the use of export control restrictions against certain countries and individual companies. The U.S. is the largest export destination for our battery testing equipment. *See Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.* Implementation, prolongation or expansion of such trade barriers may result in a decrease in the growth of the global economy and the battery industry, and could cause turmoil in global markets that may result in declines in sales from which we generate our income through our materials, technologies and services.

Any future systemic political, economic or financial crisis or market volatility, including but not limited to, interest rate fluctuation, inflation or deflation and changes in economic, fiscal and monetary policies and changes in government and election results in major economies, could cause revenue or profits for the battery industry, or our access to external financing as a whole to decline dramatically.

***Our systems and data may be subject to disruptions or other security incidents, and we may face alleged violations of laws, regulations, or other obligations relating to handling our employees' personal data or confidential data of our customers and other business partners that could result in liability and adversely impact our reputation and future sales.***

Our ability to conduct our business and operations depends on the continued operation of information technology and communications systems. Systems used in our business, including data centers and other information technology systems, are vulnerable to damage or interruption. Such systems could also be subject to break-ins, cyber-attacks, sabotage and intentional acts of vandalism, as well as disruptions and security incidents as a result of non-technical issues, including intentional or inadvertent acts or omissions by employees, service providers, or others. Our proprietary process technology is unique and may make us a target for cyber attackers. We are also at risk for interruptions, outages and breaches of: (a) operational systems, including business, financial, accounting, product development, data processing or production processes, owned by us or our third-party vendors or suppliers and (b) facility security systems, owned by us or our third-party vendors or suppliers. A cyber incident could be caused by disasters, insiders (through inadvertence or with malicious intent) or malicious third parties (including nation-states or nation-state supported actors). Several factors, including advances in technology, could result in a compromise or breach of the systems used in our business or of security measures used in our business to protect confidential information, personal information, and other data. The techniques used by cyber attackers change frequently and cybersecurity incidents could be difficult to detect. Although we maintain information technology measures designed to protect ourselves against intellectual property theft, data breaches and other cybersecurity incidents, such measures will require updates and improvements, and we cannot guarantee that such measures will be adequate to detect, prevent or mitigate cyber incidents. The implementation, maintenance, segregation and improvement of these systems requires significant management time, support and cost, and these systems may be insufficient to prevent significant data breaches.

Moreover, there are inherent risks associated with developing, improving, expanding and updating current systems, including the disruption of our data management, procurement, production execution, finance, supply chain and sales and service processes. These risks may affect our ability to manage our data and inventory, procure parts or supplies or produce, sell, deliver and service our materials and equipment, adequately protect our intellectual property or achieve and maintain compliance with, or realize available benefits under, applicable laws, regulations and contracts. We cannot be sure that these systems upon which we rely, including those of our third-party vendors or suppliers, will be effectively implemented, maintained or expanded as planned. If we do not successfully implement, maintain or expand these systems as planned, our operations may be disrupted, our ability to accurately and timely report our financial results could be impaired, and deficiencies may arise in our internal control over financial reporting, which may impact our ability to certify our financial results. Moreover, our proprietary information or intellectual property could be compromised or misappropriated and our reputation may be adversely affected. If these systems do not operate as we expect them to, we may be required to expend significant resources to make corrections or find alternative sources for performing these functions.

***Our operations are subject to significant risk of safety incidents, which could result in harm to our workers, damage to our property and delays in our production that would adversely affect our business.***

Our operations pose a number of safety risks, any of which could result in the personal injury or death of our workers, fire or explosion, and damage to machinery, materials and equipment. For example, our manufacturing operations utilize furnaces and equipment heated to extremely high temperatures, for which our existing safety measures, including policies and procedures in place to protect against health and safety incidents or damage to our facility and equipment in the event of a fire or other incident, might not prevent serious injury or death or significant property damage. Consequences of safety incidents may include significant delays or fluctuations in production, increased maintenance and other operating costs, environmental damage, litigation, regulatory action, increased insurance premiums, mandates to halt production, workers' compensation claims, and other liabilities, any of which could materially adversely impact our business, including our results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and prospects, reputation, and ability to operate and finance our business.

------

***From time to time, we may be involved in litigation, including product liability or third-party intellectual property claims, regulatory actions or government investigations and inquiries, which could have an adverse impact on our profitability and consolidated financial position.***

We may be involved in a variety of litigation, regulatory actions or government investigations and inquiries and commercial or contractual disputes that, from time to time, are significant and could impact our financial condition. In addition, from time to time, we may also be involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business including commercial or contractual disputes, product liability claims warranty claims and other disputes with potential customers and suppliers; intellectual property matters; personal injury claims; environmental, health and safety issues; tax matters; and employment matters. From time to time, such legal proceedings may be commenced by a significant customer, which may damage our relationship with such customer. Our significant customers generally are larger enterprises and may be able to or choose to devote greater resources to such legal proceedings. It is difficult to predict the outcome or ultimate financial exposure, if any, represented by these matters, and there can be no assurance that any such exposure will not be material. Such claims may also negatively affect our reputation.

Moreover, we cannot guarantee that the technology and processes related to our materials and equipment, or our commercialization thereof, do not and will not infringe or otherwise violate any third party's intellectual property. Companies, organizations or individuals, including our current and future competitors, may hold or obtain patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make, use, develop or sell our products or processes, which could make it more difficult for us to operate our business. From time to time, we may receive inquiries from holders of such proprietary rights inquiring whether we are infringing or violating their proprietary rights and/or seek court declarations that they do not infringe upon, misappropriate or otherwise violate our intellectual property rights or challenging our ownership or the validity or enforceability of our intellectual property rights.

Similarly, third parties may infringe our patents or misappropriate or otherwise violate our intellectual property rights. In the future, we may initiate legal proceedings to enforce or defend our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity or scope of intellectual property rights we own or control. Also, third parties may initiate legal proceedings or counterclaims against us to challenge the validity or scope of intellectual property rights we own, control or to which we have rights. These proceedings can be expensive and time-consuming and many of our adversaries in these proceedings may have the ability to dedicate substantially greater resources to prosecuting these legal actions than we can. An adverse result in any litigation proceeding could put one or more of our patents at risk of being invalidated, narrowed, held unenforceable or interpreted in such a manner that would not preclude third parties from entering the market with competing products.

See also *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors (***"—*We may become involved in lawsuits or other proceedings to protect or enforce our intellectual property, which could be expensive, time-consuming and unsuccessful and have a negative effect on the success of our business.")***.

***From time to time we may enter into negotiations for acquisitions, dispositions, partnerships, joint ventures, collaborative research agreements, or investments that are not ultimately consummated or, if consummated, may not be successful.***

From time to time we may consider acquisitions, dispositions, partnerships, joint ventures, collaborative research agreements, or investments that we believe may allow us to implement our growth strategy. Our transactions with and investments in other companies are inherently risky and could disrupt our ongoing businesses. We may fail to consummate an agreement on favorable terms or achieve the goals of such an agreement.

See *Item 5 Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A. Operating Results - Components of the Results of Our Operations - Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2025, and 2024 - Loss on equity investment securities at fair value through profit or loss.* 

We cannot forecast the number, timing or size of any future strategic transactions, or the effect that any such transactions might have on our operating or financial results. We may not be able to successfully identify future opportunities or complete any such transactions if we cannot reach agreement on commercially favorable terms, if we lack sufficient

------

resources to finance the transaction on our own and cannot obtain financing at a reasonable cost or if regulatory authorities prevent such transactions from being completed. Management resources may also be diverted from operating our existing businesses to focusing on such opportunities, and we may also incur substantial out-of-pocket costs. Moreover, any such transaction may not be viewed favorably by investors or other stakeholders.

***Our facilities or operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of natural disasters and other catastrophic events.***

Our facilities or operations could be adversely affected by events, conditions and circumstances outside of our control, such as natural disasters, wars, health epidemics, and other calamities. We cannot assure you that our backup systems will be adequate to protect us from the effects of fire, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, war, riots, terrorist attacks or similar events. Any of the foregoing events may give rise to interruptions, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures or internet failures, which could cause the loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware as well as adversely affect our ability to provide services or manufacture materials or equipment. Any disruptions or other adverse events, whether within or beyond our control, at any of our facilities or in their surrounding areas could have a particularly significant impact on our business performance and financial results.

Moreover, our facilities located in Chattanooga, Tennessee, currently account for 100% of the production of our anode materials, and our facility in Bedford, Nova Scotia, currently accounts for 100% of the production of our battery testing equipment. As a result, any disruptions or other adverse events, whether within or beyond our control, at those facilities or in the surrounding area could have a particularly significant impact on our business performance and financial results.

In addition, while the long-term effects of climate change on the global economy are unclear, we recognize that there are inherent climate-related risks wherever business is conducted. Any of our locations may be vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change. Our facilities have historically been, and may continue to be, subject to physical climate change risks, including heavy rainfall and flooding in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and wildfires in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Climate-related events, including the increasing frequency of extreme weather events and their impact on critical infrastructure in the United States and elsewhere, have the potential to disrupt our business and/or our third-party service providers or partners, and may cause us to experience higher attrition, losses and additional costs to maintain and resume operations. Transitional climate change risks may subject us to increased regulations, reporting requirements, standards or expectations regarding the environmental impacts of our business, and untimely or inaccurate disclosure could adversely affect our reputation, business or financial performance.

***Issues relating to the use of new and evolving technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence ("AI"), in our business could adversely affect our business and operating results.***

Issues relating to the use of new and rapidly evolving technologies such as AI in our business may result in reputational harm, competitive harm, legal liability or litigation, or new or enhanced governmental or regulatory scrutiny, ethical concerns, compliance issues, or security risks, and may cause us to incur additional costs to resolve such issues. We are increasingly building AI into our business, such as, in our battery testing services and our technology collaborations with business partners in our BTS division. As with many innovations, AI presents risks and challenges that could affect its adoption and use, and therefore our business. Further, market demand and acceptance of AI technologies are uncertain. Additionally, the regulatory landscape surrounding traditional AI and generative AI is evolving, and the expanded use of these technologies may become subject to regulatory scrutiny under new or existing laws. For instance, the intellectual property and ownership rights associated with both forms of artificial intelligence have not been fully addressed by courts in the U.S. or in other jurisdictions that we operate in. Failure to comply with the applicable AI-related regulations could result in fines, penalties, litigation, or restrictions on our business operations. These outcomes may adversely affect our business and operating results.

------

***Terrorist activity, acts of war and political instability around the world could adversely impact our business.***

Terrorist attacks, acts of war and other hostilities, political instability, civil unrest, and other security threats, and the national and international responses to the same, have created many economic and political uncertainties and could adversely affect our business and results of operations in ways that we cannot presently predict. Such events could adversely affect global and regional economies and financial markets in general, which could result in an economic downturn that could adversely affect our operations and ability to finance our operations. Given the uncertainties relating to the Israel-Hamas war and the related Houthi attacks on commercial shipping vessels in the Red Sea and Suez Canal, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the international response to these conflicts, including the duration or expansion of the conflicts, as well as other current or future geopolitical tensions, we cannot predict the impact that these or other conflicts may have on our future business. U.S. and foreign government-imposed sanctions and export restrictions, as well as escalating hostilities that threaten transportation routes, or other critical infrastructure, could adversely affect our business partners, suppliers or customers located in or doing business with Russia or in the Middle East or in other regions experiencing geopolitical instability, including as the result of supply disruptions or inability to ship or collect payments for their products. These impacts on our business partners, suppliers and customers, in turn, could negatively affect demand for our products and services and increase our operating costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, financial condition and prospects. In some cases, we are not insured for losses and interruptions caused by terrorist acts and acts of war or certain other hostile events.

**Risks Related to Regulatory Matters**

***We are subject to substantial regulation, and unfavorable changes to, or our failure to comply with, these regulations could substantially harm our business and operating results.***

Our materials, and the purchasers of our materials, are regulated under international, federal, state and local laws, including export control laws. We expect to incur significant costs in complying with these regulations. Regulations related to our Company and the battery and EV industries and alternative energy are currently evolving and we face risks associated with changes to these regulations, particularly in light of the recent government changes and election results in the U.S.

To the extent the laws change, our materials and equipment may not comply with applicable international, federal, state or local laws, which would have an adverse effect on our business. Compliance with changing regulations could be burdensome, time consuming, and expensive. To the extent compliance with new regulations is cost prohibitive, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results would be adversely affected.

Internationally, there may be laws in jurisdictions we have not yet entered or laws we are unaware of in jurisdictions we have entered that may restrict our sales or other business practices. The laws in this area can be complex and difficult to interpret and may change over time. Continued regulatory limitations and other obstacles that may interfere with our ability to commercialize our materials and equipment could have a negative and material impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

***We are subject to environmental, health and safety requirements which could adversely affect our business, results of operation and reputation.***

Our facilities and operations are subject to numerous environmental, health and safety ("EHS") laws and regulations, which require significant capital investment on an ongoing basis. These laws and regulations regulate, among other things, the discharge of materials into the environment, air emissions, the handling and disposal of wastes, remediation of contaminated sites and other matters relating to worker and consumer health and safety, and to the protection of the environment. Non-compliance with applicable EHS laws could give rise to liability, including the potential for civil or criminal fines or penalties, unforeseen capital expenditures or other legal liability. In addition, EHS laws or their enforcement may change or become more stringent over time, which could increase our operating costs, subject us to additional liabilities and cause delays in our processes. We may also face liability for the remediation of contaminated

------

sites, including at third-party contaminated sites where we or our predecessors in interest have sent waste for treatment or disposal. Remediation liability may be imposed without regard to whether we knew of, or caused, the release of such regulated substances. In addition, under environmental laws, we may be liable for the entire cost to remediate a contaminated site, even where multiple parties contributed to the contamination.

In addition, our supply-chain and manufacturing processes rely on the use of fossil fuels for product materials and energy consumption. Changes in rules and regulations (e.g., greenhouse gas regulations, air emission compliance requirements) applicable to us or entities in our supply chain or stricter scrutiny of our sustainability performance by various stakeholders could require us to make changes to our operations, which could increase our operating costs, cause delays or otherwise have an adverse impact on our business.

***We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws, and non-compliance with such laws can subject us to administrative, civil and criminal fines and penalties, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation.***

We are subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws and regulations in various jurisdictions in which we conduct or in the future may conduct activities, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, the Australian Criminal Code Act 1995 ("Criminal Code"), the Australian Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing Act 2006, and other anti-corruption laws and regulations. The FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, and the Criminal Code prohibit us and our officers, directors, employees and business partners acting on our behalf, including agents, from corruptly offering, promising, authorizing or providing anything of value, or providing benefit to a "foreign official", or (under the Criminal Code) another person with the intention this will benefit a "foreign public official", for the purposes of influencing official decisions or obtaining or retaining business or otherwise obtaining favorable treatment. The FCPA also requires companies to make and keep books, records and accounts that accurately reflect transactions and dispositions of assets and to maintain a system of adequate internal accounting controls. The U.K. Bribery Act also prohibits non-governmental "commercial" bribery and soliciting or accepting bribes. Our policies and procedures that are designed to comply with these laws may not be sufficient and our directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, agents, and business partners could engage in improper conduct for which we may be held responsible.

Non-compliance with anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws could subject us to whistleblower complaints, adverse media coverage, investigations, and severe administrative, civil and criminal sanctions, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation. In addition, changes in these laws in the future could adversely impact our business. See also *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors ("****Any global political, economic and financial crisis (as well as the indirect effects flowing therefrom) could negatively affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.")***.

**Risks Relating to Intellectual Property**

***Our success depends upon our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our materials and technologies.***

Our success will depend in significant part on our ability to establish and maintain adequate protection of our owned intellectual property, and the ability to commercialize materials and equipment resulting therefrom, without infringing the intellectual property rights of others. We rely upon a combination of the intellectual property protections afforded by patent, trade secret and other intellectual property laws in the United States, Canada, and other jurisdictions, as well as license agreements and other contractual protections, to establish, maintain and enforce rights in our proprietary technologies.

------

In addition to patent protection, we rely substantially on trade secrets, including unpatented know-how, technology and other proprietary materials and information, to maintain our competitive position. We seek to protect our intellectual property, in part, by requiring employees and consultants to waive or assign their intellectual property rights to us and by protecting our trade secrets by entering into confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with our employees, consultants, business partners and other third parties. While it is our policy to enter into such agreements, these steps may be inadequate as we may fail to enter into agreements with all necessary parties, the waivers or assignments of intellectual property rights may not be self-executing or any of these parties may breach the agreements, and there may be no adequate remedy available for such breach of an agreement. We may be forced to bring claims against third parties, or defend claims that they may bring against us, to determine the ownership of what we regard as our intellectual property. Such claims could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, third parties may nevertheless attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our intellectual property. Monitoring unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult and costly, and the steps we have taken or will take to prevent infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient. Enforcing a claim that a party infringed intellectual property or misappropriated a trade secret is difficult, expensive and time consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, some courts both within and outside the United States may be less willing, or unwilling, to protect trade secrets or other intellectual property. Moreover, if a competitor lawfully obtained, reverse engineered or independently developed any technology or information that we protect as trade secret, we would have no right to prevent such competitor from using that technology or information to compete with us, which could harm our competitive position. Our inability to prevent unauthorized use of our intellectual property could harm our business and competitive position.

Furthermore, our owned and in-licensed intellectual property rights may be subject to a reservation of rights by one or more third parties. In some instances, when new technologies are developed with government funding (and in particular, the U.S. government), the government may obtain certain rights in any resulting patents, including a non-exclusive license authorizing the government to use the invention or to have others use the invention on its behalf. These rights may permit the government to disclose our confidential information to third parties and to exercise march-in rights to use or allow third parties to use our licensed technology. For example, the United States federal government retains such rights in inventions produced with its financial assistance under the Bayh-Dole Act. The government can exercise its march-in rights if it determines that action is necessary because we fail to achieve practical application of the government-funded technology, because action is necessary to alleviate health or safety needs, to meet requirements of federal regulations, or to give preference to U.S. industry. Further, the Draft Interagency Guidance Framework for Considering the Exercise of March-In Rights released by the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology on December 7, 2023 proposes to expand the U.S. government's "march-in" authority under the Bayh-Dole Act. In November 2023, we reached agreement on the terms of a grant from the CMEI Office of the DOE and we have begun to use those funds to purchase equipment and facility infrastructure to expand Riverside's production capacity to 20,000 tonnes per annum. As a result of these laws and the U.S. Competitiveness Provisions that are part of the terms of our grant, our rights in certain inventions may be subject to certain requirements to manufacture products embodying such inventions in the United States. An exercise by the government of such rights or by any third party of its reserved rights could harm our competitive position, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

***We may be unable to obtain intellectual property rights or our patent applications may not result in issued patents or our patent rights may be contested, circumvented, invalidated or limited in scope, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from interfering with our commercialization of our products.***

We have rights to eight issued patents and fourteen active families of patent applications. We intend to continue to apply for patents with claims covering our technologies and processes, when and where we deem it appropriate to do so. We have filed patent applications in the United States, Canada and in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions to obtain patent rights to inventions we have developed, with claims directed to compositions of matter, methods of use and other technologies relating to our programs, including battery applications. There can be no assurance that any of these applications will result in patents being issued. Conversely, we may choose not to file a patent application in order to maintain certain trade secrets or know-how, and a third party may subsequently file a patent covering such trade secrets or know-how. In

------

addition, there can be no assurance that any of our current and future patents will effectively protect our technologies and processes or be sufficiently broad to effectively prevent others from commercializing competitive technologies, processes and products. Publications of discoveries in the scientific literature often lag behind the actual discoveries, and patent applications in the United States and other jurisdictions are typically not published until 18 months after filing or in some cases not at all. Therefore, we cannot be certain that we or our current or future collaborators were the first to make the inventions claimed in our owned patent or pending patent applications, or that we or our current or future collaborators were the first to file for patent protection of such inventions. For a description of our patent portfolio, see *Item 4. Information on the Company—B. Business Overview — Intellectual Property.*

The patent prosecution process is expensive and time-consuming, and we and our current or future collaborators may not be able to prepare, file and prosecute all necessary or desirable patent applications at a reasonable cost or in a timely manner. Filing, prosecuting, enforcing and defending patents in all countries throughout the world would be prohibitively expensive, and our intellectual property rights in some countries outside the United States may be less extensive than those in the United States. The requirements for patentability differ and certain countries have heightened requirements for patentability, requiring more disclosure in the patent application. We may also have limited remedies if patents are infringed or if we are compelled to grant a license to a third party, like in countries that limit the enforceability of patents against government agencies or government contractors. In these countries, the patent owner may have limited remedies, which could materially diminish the value of such patent. Accordingly, our efforts to enforce intellectual property rights around the world may be inadequate to obtain a significant commercial advantage from the intellectual property that we own or license.

It is also possible that we or our current or future collaborators will fail to identify patentable aspects of inventions made in the course of development and commercialization activities before it is too late to obtain patent protection for them. Moreover, in some circumstances, we may not have the right to control the preparation, filing and prosecution of patent applications, or to maintain or enforce the patents, covering technology that we license to third parties and may be reliant on our current or future collaborators to perform these activities, which means that these patent applications may not be prosecuted, and these patents enforced, in a manner consistent with the best interests of our business. If our current or future collaborators fail to establish, maintain, protect or enforce such patents and other intellectual property rights, such rights may be reduced or eliminated. If our current or future collaborators are not fully cooperative or disagree with us as to the prosecution, maintenance or enforcement of any patent rights, such patent rights could be compromised.

***Changes in patent law could diminish the value of patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our technologies and processes.***

Our success is dependent on intellectual property rights, including patents. Obtaining and enforcing patents involves technological and legal complexity, and obtaining and enforcing patents is costly, time-consuming and inherently uncertain. The U.S. Supreme Court in recent years has issued rulings either narrowing the scope of patent protection available in certain circumstances or weakening the rights of patent owners in certain situations or ruling that certain subject matter is not eligible for patent protection. In addition to increasing uncertainty with regard to our ability to obtain patents in the future, this combination of events has created uncertainty with respect to the value of patents, once obtained. Depending on decisions by Congress, the federal courts, the USPTO and equivalent bodies in non-U.S. jurisdictions, the laws and regulations governing patents could change in unpredictable ways that would weaken our ability to obtain new patents or to enforce our existing patent and patents we may obtain in the future.

Patent reform laws, such as the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, as well as changes in how patent laws are interpreted, could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patent applications and the enforcement or defense of our issued patents.

------

***We may be unable to obtain third-party intellectual property rights or technology necessary to develop and commercialize our materials and equipment.***

The patent landscape around our programs is complex, and there may be one or more third-party patents and patent applications containing subject matter that might be relevant to our programs. Depending on what claims may ultimately issue from these patent applications, and how courts construe the issued patent claims, as well as depending on the ultimate method of use of our processes, we may need to obtain a license to practice the technology claimed in such patents. There can be no assurance that such licenses will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If a third party does not offer us a necessary license or offers a license only on terms that are unattractive or unacceptable to us, we might be unable to develop and commercialize one or more of our programs, which would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, even if we obtain licenses to such intellectual property, but subsequently fail to meet our obligations under the relevant license agreements, or such license agreements are terminated for any other reasons, we may lose our rights to the technologies licensed under those agreements.

**Risks Related to the ADSs** 

***An active U.S. trading market may not be sustained.***

While our ordinary shares have been listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, or the ASX, since December 2015, and trading on the OTCQX Best Market from September 2020 until December 2023, there was no public market on a U.S. national securities exchange for our ordinary shares until we listed our ADSs on Nasdaq in January 2022. There can be no assurance that an active trading market for the ADSs will be sustained. In the absence of an active trading market for the ADSs, investors may not be able to sell their ADSs.

***The trading price and volume of the ADSs may be volatile, and purchasers of the ADSs could incur substantial losses.***

The price and trading volumes of our ordinary shares and ADSs may be significantly affected by many factors, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•actual or anticipated fluctuations in our or our competitors' financial condition and operating results;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•variations in our financial performance from the expectations of market analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•actual or anticipated changes in our growth rate relative to our competitors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•competition from existing products or new products that may emerge;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•announcements by us or our competitors of significant business developments, acquisitions or expansion plans, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, collaborations or capital commitments;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•adverse results or delays in our or any of our competitors' products development;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•adverse regulatory decisions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the termination of a strategic alliance or the inability to establish additional strategic alliances;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•failure to meet or exceed financial estimates and projections of the investment community or that we provide to the public;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•ADS price and volume fluctuations attributable to inconsistent trading volume levels of the ADSs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•price and volume fluctuations in trading of our ordinary shares on the ASX;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•short selling or other market manipulation activities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•additions or departures of key management, or scientific or technology personnel;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•disruptions in our supply or manufacturing arrangements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•disputes or other developments related to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain patent and other intellectual property protection for our technologies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•litigation involving our company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•announcement or expectation of additional debt or equity financing efforts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•natural disasters or other calamities or disease outbreaks;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•sales of ordinary shares or the ADSs by us, our affiliates or our other shareholders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•general economic and market conditions.

------

In addition, equity markets generally have experienced, and may in the future experience, extreme price and volume fluctuations, and often these movements do not reflect the operational and financial performance of the listed companies concerned. In particular, share prices of companies in the battery industry have been highly volatile in the past and may continue to be highly volatile in the future. Our operations currently focus on battery materials, technology and services. Therefore, we are especially vulnerable to these factors to the extent that they continue to affect the battery industry. Fluctuations in the share markets in Australia and the United States, as well as macroeconomic conditions, could significantly affect the price of the ADSs. As a result of this volatility, investors may not be able to sell their ADSs at or above the price originally paid for the security.

These and other market and industry factors may cause the market price and demand for the ADSs to fluctuate, regardless of our actual operating performance, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their ADSs and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of the trading market for the ADSs.

***Future sales of our ordinary shares or ADSs or the anticipation of future sales could reduce the market price of our ordinary shares or ADSs.***

We have raised capital through equity and convertible securities issuances in recent years. The issuance of additional ordinary shares or ADSs upon conversion of outstanding convertible securities, or future equity financings, could result in dilution to existing shareholders. Sales of a substantial number of our ordinary shares or ADSs in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our securities. As of the date of this annual report, we have outstanding convertible securities that may be convertible into a significant number of ordinary shares, which could increase the number of shares available for sale. *See Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions, and Item 10.C – Material Contracts.*

The ordinary shares subject to subscription under outstanding options and performance rights exercisable for ordinary shares could become eligible for sale in the public market in the future, subject to certain legal and contractual limitations. Sales of a large number of ordinary shares in the public market could depress the market price of the ADSs. If these additional ordinary shares are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, the trading price of the ordinary shares and ADSs could decline substantially, which could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the issuance of ordinary shares, ADSs or other securities in the future, and may cause you to lose part or all of your investment.

***If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable reports about our business, the price of the ADSs and their trading volume could decline.***

The trading market for the ADSs depends in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If additional securities or industry analysts do not cover our Company, the trading price for the ADSs could be negatively impacted. If one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our equity securities or publishes incorrect or unfavorable research about our business, the price of the ADSs would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company or fails to publish reports on us regularly, or downgrades our securities, demand for the ADSs could decrease, which could cause the price of the ADSs or their trading volume to decline.

***We do not currently intend to pay dividends on our securities and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of the ADSs.***

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our ordinary shares since our listing on the ASX and do not currently intend to do so for the foreseeable future.

------

We currently intend to invest our future earnings, if any, to fund our operations and growth. Therefore, you are not likely to receive any dividends on your ADSs for the foreseeable future and the success of an investment in the ADSs will depend upon any future appreciation in its value. Consequently, investors may need to sell all or part of their holdings of the ADSs after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investment. There is no guarantee that the ADSs will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which you have purchased them. Investors seeking cash dividends should consider not purchasing the ADSs.

While we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our ordinary shares in the foreseeable future, if such a dividend is declared, the depositary for the ADSs has agreed to pay to you the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on our ordinary shares or other deposited securities after deducting its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of our ordinary shares your ADSs represent. However, in accordance with the limitations set forth in the deposit agreement, it may be unlawful or impractical to make a distribution available to holders of ADSs. We have no obligation to take any other action to permit the distribution of the ADSs, ordinary shares, rights or anything else to holders of the ADSs. This means that you may not receive the distributions we make on our ordinary shares or any value from them if it is unlawful or impractical to make them available to you. These restrictions may negatively impact the value of your ADSs. In addition, exchange rate fluctuations may affect the amount of Australian dollars that we are able to distribute, and the amount in U.S. dollars that our shareholders receive upon the payment of cash dividends or other distributions we declare and pay in Australian dollars, if any. These factors could harm the value of the ADSs, and, in turn, the U.S. dollar proceeds that holders receive from the sale of the ADSs.

***The dual listing of our ordinary shares and the ADSs may negatively impact the liquidity and value of the ADSs.***

Since the listing of the ADSs on Nasdaq, our ordinary shares have continued to be listed on the ASX. We cannot predict the effect of this dual listing on the value of our ordinary shares and ADSs. However, the dual listing of our ordinary shares and the ADSs may dilute the liquidity of these securities in one or both markets and may negatively impact the development of an active trading market for the ADSs in the United States. The price of the ADSs could also be negatively impacted by trading in our ordinary shares on the ASX.

***U.S. investors may have difficulty enforcing civil liabilities against our company, our directors or members of senior management and the experts named in this annual report.***

Certain members of our senior management and Board of Directors named in this annual report are non-residents of the United States, and a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be impracticable to serve process on such persons in the United States or to enforce judgments obtained in U.S. courts against them based on civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States. Even if you are successful in bringing such an action, there is doubt as to whether Australian courts would enforce certain civil liabilities under U.S. securities laws in original actions or judgments of U.S. courts based upon these civil liability provisions. In addition, awards of punitive damages in actions brought in the United States or elsewhere may be unenforceable in Australia or elsewhere outside the United States. An award for monetary damages under U.S. securities laws would be considered punitive if it does not seek to compensate the claimant for loss or damage suffered and is intended to punish the defendant. The enforceability of any judgment in Australia will depend on the particular facts of the case as well as the laws and treaties in effect at the time. The United States and Australia do not currently have a treaty or statute providing for recognition and enforcement of the judgments of the other country (other than arbitration awards) in civil and commercial matters.

As a result, our public shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests through actions against us, our management or our directors than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States. In addition, as a company incorporated in Australia, the provisions of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), or the "Corporations Act," regulate the circumstances in which shareholder derivative actions may be commenced, which may be different, and in many ways less permissive, than for companies incorporated in the United States.

------

***Australian takeover laws may discourage takeover offers being made for us or may discourage the acquisition of a significant position in our ordinary shares or ADSs.***

We are incorporated in Australia and are subject to the takeover laws of Australia. Subject to a range of exceptions, the takeover provisions in the Corporations Act prohibit the acquisition of a direct or indirect interest in our issued voting shares if the acquisition of that interest will lead to a person's voting power in us increasing from 20% or below to more than 20%, or increasing from a starting point that is above 20% and below 90%. Australian takeover laws may discourage takeover offers being made for us or may discourage the acquisition of a significant position in our ordinary shares. This may have the ancillary effect of entrenching our Board of Directors and may deprive or limit our shareholders' opportunity to sell their ordinary shares.

***Holders of ADSs will not be directly holding our ordinary shares and your right to participate in any future preferential rights offering, or vote your shares, may be limited.***

A holder of ADSs will not be treated as one of our shareholders and will not have direct shareholder rights, unless they surrender the ADSs to receive the ordinary shares underlying their ADSs in accordance with the deposit agreement and applicable laws and regulations. The depositary, through the custodian or the custodian's nominee, will be the holder of the ordinary shares underlying ADSs. See *Item 12. Description of Securities Other Than Equity Securities – American Depositary Shares.*

The deposit agreement provides that the depositary will not make rights available to you unless the distribution to ADS holders of both the rights and any related securities are either registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or exempted from registration under the Securities Act. If we offer holders of our ordinary shares the option to receive dividends in either cash or shares, under the deposit agreement the depositary may require satisfactory assurances from us that extending the offer to holders of ADSs does not require registration of any securities under the Securities Act before making the option available to holders of ADSs. We are under no obligation to file a registration statement with respect to any such rights or securities or to endeavor to cause such a registration statement to be declared effective. Moreover, we may not be able to establish an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Accordingly, ADS holders may be unable to participate in our rights offerings or to elect to receive dividends in shares and may experience dilution in their holdings.

Holders of ADSs may exercise voting rights with respect to the ordinary shares represented by the ADSs only in accordance with the provisions of the deposit agreement. The deposit agreement provides that, upon receipt of notice of any meeting of holders of our ordinary shares, the depositary will fix a record date for the determination of ADS holders who shall be entitled to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights.

You may instruct the depositary to vote the ordinary shares underlying your ADSs. Otherwise, you will not be able to exercise your right to vote, unless you withdraw the ordinary shares underlying the ADSs you hold. However, you may not know about the meeting far enough in advance to withdraw those ordinary shares in time to vote them yourself. If we ask for your instructions, the depositary, upon timely notice from us, will notify you of the upcoming vote and arrange to deliver our voting materials to you and will try to vote ordinary shares as you instruct. We cannot guarantee that you will receive the voting materials in time to ensure that you can instruct the depositary to vote your ordinary shares or to withdraw your ordinary shares so that you can vote them yourself.

***You may be subject to limitations on the transfer of your ADSs and the withdrawal of the underlying ordinary shares.***

Your ADSs are transferable on the books of the depositary. However, the depositary may close its books at any time or from time to time when it deems expedient in connection with the performance of its duties. The depositary may refuse to deliver, transfer or register transfers of your ADSs generally when our books or the books of the depositary are closed, or at any time if we or the depositary think it is advisable to do so because of any requirement of law, government or governmental body, or under any provision of the deposit agreement, or for any other reason subject to your right to surrender your ADSs and receive the underlying ordinary shares. Temporary delays in the surrendering of your ADSs and receipt of the underlying ordinary shares may arise because the depositary has closed its transfer books or we have closed

------

our transfer books, the transfer of ordinary shares is blocked to permit voting at a shareholders' meeting or we are paying a dividend on our ordinary shares. In addition, you may not be able to surrender your ADSs and receive the underlying ordinary shares when you owe money for fees, taxes and similar charges and when it is necessary to prohibit withdrawals in order to comply with any laws or governmental regulations that apply to ADSs or to the withdrawal of ordinary shares or other deposited securities. See *Item 12. Description of Securities Other Than Equity Securities – American Depositary Shares.*

***ADS holders' rights to pursue claims are limited by the terms of the deposit agreement.*** 

The deposit agreement provides that holders and beneficial owners of ADSs, including those holders and owners who acquired ADSs in secondary transactions, irrevocably waive the right to a trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the deposit agreement or the ADSs, including in respect of claims under U.S. federal securities laws, against us or the depositary to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. If this jury trial waiver provision is prohibited by applicable law, an action could nevertheless proceed under the terms of the deposit agreement with a jury trial.

No condition, stipulation or provision of the deposit agreement or ADSs serves as a waiver by any holder or beneficial owner of ADSs or by us or the depositary of compliance with any provision of the applicable U.S. federal securities laws. If you or any other holder or beneficial owner of ADSs brings a claim against us or the depositary in connection with such matters, you or such other holder or beneficial owner may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to such claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against us and/or the depositary. If a lawsuit is brought against us and/or the depositary under the deposit agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in any such action, depending on, among other things, the nature of the claims, the judge or justice hearing such claims, and the venue of the hearing.

***We and the depositary are entitled to amend the deposit agreement and to change the rights of ADS holders under the terms of such agreement, and we may terminate the deposit agreement, without the prior consent of the ADS holders.***

We and the depositary are entitled to amend the deposit agreement and to change the rights of the ADS holders under the terms of such agreement, without the prior consent of the ADS holders. In the event that the terms of an amendment are materially prejudicial to ADS holders' substantial rights, ADS holders will only receive 30 days' advance notice of the amendment, and no prior consent of the ADS holders is required under the deposit agreement. Furthermore, we may decide to terminate the ADS facility at any time for any reason, or the depositary agent may on its own initiative terminate the deposit agreement. If the ADS facility will terminate, ADS holders will receive at least 30 days' prior notice, but no prior consent is required from them. Under the circumstances that we decide to make an amendment to the deposit agreement that is materially prejudicial to the substantial rights of the ADS holders or terminate the deposit agreement, the ADS holders may choose to sell their ADSs or surrender their ADSs and become direct holders of the underlying ordinary shares, but will have no right to any compensation whatsoever.

***ADS holders have limited recourse if we or the depositary fail to meet our respective obligations under the deposit agreement.***

The deposit agreement expressly limits our obligations and liability and those of the depositary. We and the depositary:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•are only obligated to take the actions specifically set forth in the deposit agreement without negligence or bad faith;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•are not liable if we are or it is prevented or delayed by law or circumstances beyond our or its control from performing our or its obligations under the deposit agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•are not liable if we exercise or it exercises discretion permitted under the deposit agreement;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•are not liable for the inability of any holder of ADSs to benefit from any distribution on deposited securities that is not made available to holders of ADSs under the terms of the deposit agreement, or for any consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of the deposit agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•may rely upon any documents we believe or it believes in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person.

These provisions of the deposit agreement limit the ability of holders of the ADSs to obtain recourse if we or the depositary fail to meet our respective obligations under the deposit agreement.

***As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from a number of rules under the U.S. securities laws that apply to public companies that are not foreign private issuers.***

We are a foreign private issuer, as defined in the SEC's rules and regulations and, consequently, we are not subject to all of the disclosure requirements applicable to public companies organized within the United States. For example, we are exempt from certain rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), that regulate disclosure obligations and procedural requirements related to the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations applicable to a security registered under the Exchange Act, including the U.S. proxy rules under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, our principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and they, our senior management and the members of our Board of Directors are exempt from the "short-swing" profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Moreover, while we currently make annual and semi-annual filings with respect to our listing on the ASX and expect to file financial reports on an annual and semi-annual basis, we will not be required to file annual and current reports and financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") as frequently or as promptly as U.S. domestic companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act and will not be required to file quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K under the Exchange Act. We also are exempt from the provisions of Regulation FD, which prohibits the selective disclosure of material nonpublic information to, among others, broker-dealers and holders of a company's securities under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that the holder will trade in the company's securities on the basis of the information. In addition, foreign private issuers are not required to file their annual report on Form 20-F until four months after the end of each fiscal year.

As a result, we are able to take advantage of certain exemptions and reporting requirements not available to companies domiciled in the United States. Accordingly, we are not required to produce information with the same frequency, scope, or protections to which you are entitled as an investor and there may be less publicly available information concerning our company than there would be if we were not a foreign private issuer.

***As a foreign private issuer, we are permitted to adopt certain home country practices in relation to corporate governance matters that differ significantly from Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards, and these practices may afford less protection to shareholders than they would enjoy if we complied fully with Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards.***

As a foreign private issuer with ADSs listed on Nasdaq, we are subject to Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards. However, the governance rules of Nasdaq permit foreign private issuers to follow the corporate governance practices of their home country. For example, as an Australian company we are subject to different corporate requirements than a corporation organized under the laws of the United States, and your rights as a shareholder or our obligations as a company may differ from those applicable to US companies. You should carefully review the summary of these matters set forth under "Description of Securities Registered Under Section 12 of the Exchange Act," as well as our Constitution, which are included as exhibits to this annual report, prior to investing in our securities. Currently, with respect to the Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards, we intend to follow home country practice to the maximum extent possible. Therefore, our shareholders may be afforded less protection than they otherwise would have under corporate governance listing standards applicable to U.S. domestic issuers. For an overview of our corporate governance practices, see *Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees —C. Board Practices.*

------

***We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional cost and expense.***

While we currently qualify as a foreign private issuer, we could lose our foreign private issuer status if we fail to meet the requirements necessary to maintain our foreign private issuer status as of the relevant determination date. For more information, see Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - B. Liquidity and Capital Resources-Foreign Private Issuer Status. The regulatory and compliance costs to us under U.S. securities laws as a U.S. domestic issuer may be significantly higher. If we cease to be a foreign private issuer, we will be required to file periodic reports and registration statements on U.S. domestic issuer forms with the SEC, which are more detailed and extensive in certain respects than the forms available to a foreign private issuer. We would be required under current SEC rules to prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP rather than IFRS, and modify certain of our policies to comply with corporate governance practices required of U.S. domestic issuers. Such conversion of our financial statements to U.S. GAAP would involve significant time and cost. In addition, we may lose our ability to rely upon exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements on U.S. stock exchanges that are available to foreign private issuers.

***We are an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act and will be able to avail ourselves of reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, which could make our ordinary shares and ADSs less attractive to investors.***

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act"), and we intend to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not "emerging growth companies." These include exemptions from the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We cannot predict if investors will find the ADSs less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find the ADSs less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for the ADSs and the price of the ADSs may be more volatile. We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time that we are no longer an emerging growth company. For more information, see Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - B. Liquidity and Capital Resources-Emerging Growth Company Status.

***We have incurred and will continue to incur significant, increased costs as a result of operating as a company with ADSs that are publicly traded in the United States, and will incur increased costs as a result of becoming a recipient of United States government funding and incentives, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.***

As a company with ADSs that are publicly traded in the United States, we have incurred and will incur significant legal, accounting, insurance, administrative and other expenses. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and related rules implemented by the SEC and Nasdaq have imposed various requirements on public companies listed in the United States, including requiring the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. In addition, our receipt of grants and other funding and incentives from U.S. government agencies will heighten the importance of accurate reporting and internal controls and will impose compliance obligations under a number of other laws and regulations.

See also *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors (****"Our DOE grant, and any future grants, loans or incentives we may obtain from governmental agencies, will impose restrictions and compliance obligations on us, with associated costs and risks.")***, and *Item 4 – Regulation – Department of Energy Grant Terms and Conditions*.

The cost of complying with these requirements may place a strain on our systems and resources. To maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, we must commit significant resources. Among other things, this has required and will require us to commit additional management, operational and financial resources to identify new professionals to join our company. These activities also may divert management's attention from other business

------

concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Moreover, these requirements have increased and will continue to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make certain activities, such as procurement and tracking of compliance by sub-contractor and contractual counterparties, more time-consuming and costly. These requirements could also make it more difficult and expensive for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors, our Board committees or as our senior management. Furthermore, if we are unable to satisfy our obligations as a public company listed in the United States, or are alleged to have made false or misleading statements in our applications for government support or other documentation submitted to the government, we could be subject to delisting of the ADSs, fines, sanctions and other regulatory action and potentially civil litigation, which may adversely affect our business, results of operation or financial condition and could result in delays in achieving or maintaining an active and liquid trading market for the ADSs.

***If we fail to implement and maintain an effective system of internal controls or fail to identify and remediate our material weaknesses thereof, we may be unable to accurately report our results of operations, meet our reporting obligations or prevent fraud, and investor confidence in our Company and the market price of the ADSs may be negatively impacted.***

As a public company, we are required to comply with the SEC's rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires management to certify financial and other information in our SEC reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that as of December 31, 2025, we had not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as a result of the existence of material weaknesses, as further noted below. Consequently, management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2025.

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, we identified certain control deficiencies in the design and implementation of our internal control over financial reporting that constituted material weaknesses. These material weaknesses have not yet been fully remediated as of December 31, 2025. As described in *Item 15. Controls and Procedures* of this Form 20-F, we are continuing to implement our remediation plans to address the identified material weaknesses, and our management continues to be actively engaged in the remediation efforts. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

The presence of material weaknesses could result in financial statement errors which, in turn, could lead to errors in our financial reports or delays in our financial reporting, which could require us to restate our financial statements. Remediating material weaknesses will absorb management's time and will require us to incur additional expenses, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our ordinary shares and the ADSs. In order to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, we will need to expend significant internal and external resources and provide significant management oversight. Developing, implementing and testing changes to our internal controls may require specific compliance training of our directors and employees, entail substantial costs in order to modify our existing accounting systems, take a significant period of time to complete and divert management's attention from other business concerns. These changes may not, however, be effective in establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls.

If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in our operating results, the price of our ordinary shares and the ADSs could decline and we may be subject to litigation or regulatory enforcement actions. In addition, if we are unable to meet the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to remain listed on Nasdaq.

------

***We currently report our financial results under IFRS, which differs in certain significant respects from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).***

Currently we report our financial statements under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. There have been and there may in the future be certain significant differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, and those difference may be material. As a result, our financial information and reported earnings for historical or future periods could be significantly different if they were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, we do not intend to provide a reconciliation between IFRS and U.S. GAAP unless it is required under applicable law. As a result, you may not be able to meaningfully compare our financial statements under IFRS with those companies that prepare financial statements under U.S. GAAP.

***We are subject to risks associated with currency fluctuations, and changes in foreign currency exchange rates could impact our results of operations.***

Our ordinary shares are quoted in Australian dollars on the ASX and the ADSs are quoted in U.S. dollars. Any significant change in the value of the Australian dollar may have a negative effect on the value of the ADSs in U.S. dollars. In particular, if the Australian dollar weakens against the U.S. dollar, then, if we decide to convert our Australian dollars into U.S. dollars for any business purpose, appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Australian dollar would have a negative effect on the U.S. dollar amount available to us. Consequently, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Australian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. As a result of such foreign currency fluctuations, it could be more difficult to detect underlying trends in our business and results of operations.

**Risks Related to Tax Matters**

***Our ability to utilize our net operating losses to offset future taxable income may be prohibited or subject to certain limitations.***

Prior or future changes in our ownership could limit our ability to use our net operating losses ("NOLs") to offset future taxable income. In general, in the United States, Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, provides an annual limitation with respect to the ability of a corporation to utilize its tax attributes, including its NOLs, against future taxable income in the event of a change in ownership. The use of tax losses incurred prior to a change in ownership may also be limited in Australia. We have not determined whether we have undergone a change in ownership for United States or Australian tax purposes, and it is possible that we may have undergone such a change previously or may undergo such a change as a result of future transactions in our stock (many of which are outside our control). If it is determined that we have previously experienced such an ownership change, or if we undergo one or more ownership changes as a result of future transactions, we may be unable to use all or a portion of our NOLs to offset our future taxable income in the United States or Australia. Any limitations on our ability to use our NOLs may cause income taxes to be paid earlier than otherwise would be paid if such limitations were not in effect and could cause such NOLs to expire unused, in each case, reducing or eliminating the benefit of such NOLs. This could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

***If we are a passive foreign investment company, there could be adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders.***

We believe that we were not a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ended December 31, 2025. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or for any subsequent year. For more information, see *Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations* The determination of PFIC status is a factual determination that must be made annually and cannot be made until the close of a taxable year. The determination depends on, among other things, the composition of our income and assets. In this regard, cash generally is treated as a passive asset for PFIC purposes, and the composition of our income and assets will be affected by the amount and timing of any cash we receive, including from any grant funding, government loans or other sources, and

------

the spending of such funds. The fair market value of our assets (including goodwill) may be determined in large part based on the market price of the ADSs and our ordinary shares, which may fluctuate. Moreover, the determination of PFIC status depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules which are subject to differing interpretations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we would not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

If we were to be a PFIC, a U.S. holder would be subject to increased tax liability (generally including an interest charge on certain taxes treated as having been deferred under the PFIC rules) on any gain realized on a sale or other disposition of the ADSs or ordinary shares and on the receipt of certain "excess distributions" received with respect to the ADSs or ordinary shares, unless such U.S. holder makes certain elections. One such election, the "QEF Election," will be unavailable to a U.S. holder because we do not intend to provide information that a U.S. holder would need to make a valid QEF Election.

U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to their ADSs or ordinary shares.

***If a U.S. person is treated as owning at least 10% of our ordinary shares, such holder may be subject to adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences.***

If a U.S. person is treated as owning, directly or indirectly, at least 10% of the value or voting power of our equity, such U.S. person would be treated as a "United States shareholder" with respect to each "controlled foreign corporation" in our Company, if any. Because our Company currently includes one entity that is treated as a U.S. corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, all of our current non-U.S. subsidiaries and any future newly formed or acquired non-U.S. subsidiaries that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be treated as controlled foreign corporations, regardless of whether we are treated as a controlled foreign corporation. A United States shareholder of a controlled foreign corporation may be required to annually report and include in its U.S. taxable income its pro rata share of "Subpart F income," "global intangible low-taxed income" and investments in U.S. property by controlled foreign corporations, regardless of whether we make any distributions on the ADSs or ordinary shares. An individual who is a United States shareholder with respect to a controlled foreign corporation generally would not be allowed certain tax deductions or foreign tax credits that would be allowed to a United States shareholder that is a U.S. corporation. Failure to comply with controlled foreign corporation reporting obligations may subject a United States shareholder to significant monetary penalties. We cannot provide any assurances that we will furnish to any United States shareholder information that may be necessary to comply with the reporting and tax paying obligations applicable under the controlled foreign corporation rules of the Internal Revenue Code. U.S. persons should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of these rules to their investment in the ADSs.

***Future changes to tax laws could materially adversely affect our company and reduce net returns to our shareholders.***

Our tax treatment is subject to the enactment of, or changes in, tax laws, regulations and treaties, or the interpretation thereof, tax policy initiatives and reforms under consideration and the practices of tax authorities in jurisdictions in which we operate, including those related to the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development's Base Erosion and Profit Shifting Project and other initiatives. Such changes may include (but are not limited to) the taxation of operating income, investment income, dividends received or (in specific context of withholding tax) dividends paid. We are unable to predict what tax reform may be proposed or enacted in the future or what effect such changes would have on our business, but such changes, to the extent they are brought into tax legislation, regulations, policies or practices, could affect our financial position and overall or effective tax rates in the future in countries where we have operations, reduce post-tax returns to our shareholders, and increase the complexity, burden and cost of tax compliance.

**Item 4. Information on the Company**

**A.** **History and Development of the Company**

We were incorporated under the laws of Australia in 2012 under the name Graphitecorp Pty Limited. In 2015, we completed an initial public offering of our ordinary shares and the listing of our ordinary shares on the Australian Securities Exchange, or the ASX, and changed our name to GRAPHITECORP Limited. In 2017, we changed our name to NOVONIX Limited.

The Company's registered office is located at Level 38, 71 Eagle Street, Brisbane, Queensland 4000, Australia. The Company's corporate headquarters is located at 1029 W. 19th Street, Chattanooga, Tennessee, 37408, United States and the telephone number is +1 423-298-1007. Its agent for service of process in the United States is National Registered Agents, Inc., located at 1209 Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801.

NOVONIX Anode Materials LLC (formerly PUREgraphite, LLC) ("NAM") was established in March 2017 as a joint venture to develop and commercialize ultra-high-purity, high-performance graphite anode materials for the lithium-ion battery market, with an initial focus on electric vehicles ("EVs"), energy storage systems ("ESSs"), and specialty applications. In fiscal year 2019, the Company exercised its call option to acquire its joint venture partner's remaining ownership interest, resulting in NOVONIX Anode Materials becoming a wholly owned subsidiary.

In June 2017, the Company acquired Battery Testing Services, Inc., which now operates as NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions, Inc. ("BTS"). BTS was founded in Nova Scotia, Canada by Dr. Chris Burns, who currently serves as Strategic Advisor to the Company's Board of Directors with researchers from the Dalhousie University research group led by Dr. Jeff Dahn, the NOVONIX's Chief Scientific Advisor. BTS provides advanced battery research and development capabilities and proprietary technologies supporting the evaluation and performance of lithium-ion batteries. For information on the binding term sheet we recently signed for the proposed sale of the BTS business, see Note 32 - *Events after the reporting date*. We continue to present BTS as part of our overall business in this Annual Report on Form 20-F because, as of December 31, 2025 as well as the date of this report, we continue to own the BTS business.

On July 28, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of an approximately 404,000 square-foot facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, referred to as the Riverside facility ("Riverside"), which serves as NOVONIX's first mass-production site for anode materials.

On April 30, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement with the City of Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Hamilton County, Tennessee, to acquire 182-acre parcel of land located in the Enterprise South Industrial Park in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where the Company intends to develop a second mass-production facility ("Enterprise South"). The closing of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions.

Since the beginning of fiscal year 2020 and through the date of this report, the Company incurred capital expenditures of approximately $222.9 million, primarily consisting of purchases of property, plant and equipment and capital leases in connection with the expansion of the business and development of its technologies. Capital expenditure commitments as of the end of fiscal 2025 but not recognized as liabilities were approximately $15.1 million.

For additional information regarding the Company's anode materials production operations, see "Item 4.B. Business Overview — NOVONIX Anode Materials."

On September 24, 2025, the Company sold its wholly-owned subsidiary, MD South Tenements Pty Ltd ("MDCo"), holder of contractual interests in the Mt. Dromedary Natural Graphite Project in Queensland, to Lithium Energy.

For additional information regarding the Company's sale of Mt. Dromedary Natural Graphite Project, see Item materials production operations, see "Item 4.D. Property, Plants, and Equipment - Australia."

------

On February 18, 2026, the Company entered a binding term sheet for the proposed sale of its NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions business. The proposed transaction represents a divestiture of the Company's non-core business segment and aligns NOVONIX's strategic focus to establish a vertically integrated synthetic graphite supply chain in North America.

For additional information regarding the Company's sale of its NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions business, see Item materials production operations, see "Item 5.A Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - Events after the reporting period."

**B.** **Business Overview**

**Full-Year Results** 

Throughout fiscal year 2025, NOVONIX continued to focus on the execution of its business strategy and growth initiatives. NOVONIX had net assets of $161.7 million including $79.9 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2025. The Company reported an after-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, of $92.7 million.

**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.

In 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 facility. In addition to long-term offtake agreements with Panasonic Energy and PowerCo, the Company is currently providing samples to 13 prospective customers for their battery, energy storage, and industrial applications. This year, the Company also delivered its first mass production, commercial-grade sample of synthetic graphite to one of North America's largest value-add carbon processors demonstrating that industrial-grade graphite products can be produced using its proprietary continuous graphitization furnace technology. 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. This included the delivery of 10 first- and second-round samples to seven Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier-1 battery manufacturers around the globe. 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.

![img58969013_5.jpg](img58969013_5.jpg)

**NOVONIX Anode Materials** 

In 2025, NOVONIX provided over 100 samples of synthetic graphite to 15 customers and prospects for battery, energy storage, and industrial applications.

In September 2025, the Company produced and delivered its first mass-production, industrial-grade synthetic graphite sample to one of North America's largest value-add carbon processors with additional samples delivered to potential industrial customers this quarter. This milestone demonstrates that NOVONIX's proprietary continuous graphitization furnace technology can produce industrial-grade products at scale and marks another step toward bringing battery-grade materials to market. Supplying synthetic graphite beyond the battery sector diversifies the Company's product portfolio and positions its anode materials mass production facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee ("Riverside"). The Company also announced that it expects to begin mass production of industrial-grade graphite in 2026 as product qualification is shorter, providing a faster path to market compared with battery-grade material.

In November 2025, NOVONIX announced that FCA US LLC, a subsidiary of Stellantis NV, had terminated its previously executed offtake agreement with the Company for a minimum of 86,250 tonnes, up to a target volume of 115,000 tonnes, over a six-year term, the price of which was to be determined by an agreed upon market-based price formula, and the final product specifications of which would have been confirmed at a future date. NOVONIX and Stellantis were unable to agree upon the unique battery cell product specifications and milestones for mass production qualification.

On January 16, 2026, the Company announced an update to the expected commencement of mass production for its lead battery material customer, Panasonic. With all mass production equipment for Panasonic installed and commissioned, NOVONIX continues to progress through the final stages of battery-grade material qualification. Four graphitization furnaces are now fully installed at Riverside, and furnace calibration and raw material testing are ongoing as part of the transition to large-scale production. Mass production of battery-grade anode material for Panasonic is expected to begin in the second half of 2027.

------

The Company maintains close collaboration with all customers and prospects, who are at varying stages of product qualification. Beyond existing offtake agreements with Panasonic and PowerCo, supply volumes for other customers will be defined once final product qualification is completed, and definitive agreements are executed.

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.

In January 2025, 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. The license agreement was intended to expand upon the relationship and provide NOVONIX the right to an exclusive license to Harper's technology on which its continuous graphitization furnaces operate. As previously announced, NOVONIX was required to make an initial payment no later than December 31, 2025 to gain a license to design and develop graphitization furnace technology for its internal use. The Company did not make such initial payment and the license agreement automatically expired per its terms on January 1, 2026.

**U.S. Trade Case Affecting Anode Active Materials** <br> NOVONIX continues to monitor developments in the U.S. antidumping ("AD") and countervailing duty ("CVD") investigations on anode active materials ("AAM"), which includes certain synthetic and natural graphite imports from China.

In 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce ("Commerce") announced its preliminary determination to impose AD tariffs ranging from 93.5% to 102.7% and CVDs of at least 11.5% on AAM imports from China. The AD investigation assesses whether graphite is being sold in the U.S. at less than fair market value (i.e., "dumped"), while the CVD investigation evaluates whether the Chinese government is subsidizing the production and supply of graphite AAM to the United States. Final determinations for the AD and CVD investigations are expected in early 2026.

These developments underscore the strategic importance of building a U.S. supply chain for critical minerals, including synthetic graphite. They reinforce NOVONIX's business strategy and support our customers' efforts to source critical battery materials from the United States. With the most advanced synthetic graphite production facility in North America, NOVONIX is positioned to significantly increase U.S. production of synthetic graphite, a critical mineral, while strengthening U.S. manufacturing and creating high-quality jobs.

**Executed Purchase and Sale Agreement for Enterprise South Land**

![img58969013_6.jpg](img58969013_6.jpg)

To support growing customer demand, NOVONIX is continuing to advance plans for a second large-scale synthetic graphite facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. In April 2025, 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 $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 $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 $754.8 million loan ($692.0 million in principal and $62.8 million in capitalized interest) from the Energy Dominance Financing Program ("EDF") of the U.S. Department of Energy have been satisfied.

**NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions** 

Our Battery Technology Solutions (BTS) division, located in Nova Scotia, Canada, drives innovation across the battery ecosystem. This includes our patented all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis process, industry-leading Ultra-High Precision Coulometry (UHPC) battery testing systems, and advanced R&D services specializing in cell design, prototyping, materials characterization, and performance testing. These capabilities support customer qualification and IP-driven growth across defense, grid stability, and high-performance applications.

In November 2025, the BTS team completed development of its latest hardware product, the UHPC Calibration Module, an all-in-one system that is capable of measuring, validating, and adjusting/calibrating the five main analog signals across all UHPC systems. Using advanced metrology techniques and testing equipment, the calibrator allows customers to perform routine calibration in-house, leading to significantly less equipment downtime and decreased reliance on external calibration services.

------

**Cathode Materials** 

In 2025, NOVONIX Cathode Materials continued to advance its all-dry, precursor-free cathode technology, sending 10 first- and second-round samples to seven Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Tier-1 battery manufacturers around the globe. This proprietary process eliminates the use of water and harmful solvents, increases production efficiency, and reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional wet processes.

**Selected to receive up to C$5 million in non-dilutive grant funding from Natural Resources Canada** <br>In August 2025, NOVONIX Cathode Materials was selected to receive up to C$5 million in non-dilutive grant funding from Natural Resources Canada under the Energy Innovation Program's Battery Industry Acceleration call for proposals, which will support the continued development and scale-up of NOVONIX's patented all-dry, precursor free cathode technology at its pilot facility in Nova Scotia, Canada.

The four-year grant project will focus on:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Commercialization of the CAM synthesis technology

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Optimization of CAM chemistry

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Operational scale-up

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Characterization of materials using alternative critical mineral feedstocks

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Full-scale pouch cell testing to benchmark performance

See *Item 3. Key Information — D. Risk Factors ("****From time to time we may enter into negotiations for acquisitions, dispositions, partnerships, joint ventures, collaboration agreements or investments that are not ultimately consummated or, if consummated, may not be successful."****)* 

**Principal Markets** 

The principal markets in which our BTS division competes are North America, Asia, and Europe through the sale of battery testing equipment and related consulting services. BTS customers are primarily battery manufacturers and developers, including specialty materials manufacturers, consumer electronics OEMs and automotive OEMs, primarily across the lithium-ion battery value chain. Revenues during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, were $5.6 million, $5.9 million, and $8.1 million, respectively.

In fiscal year 2025, North America, Asia, and Europe accounted for 78%, 15%, and 7% of revenues, respectively. In fiscal year 2024, North America, Asia, Australia, and Europe accounted for 71%, 22%, 3%, and 4% of revenues, respectively. In fiscal year 2023, North America, Asia, Australia, and Europe accounted for 82%, 8%, 6%, and 4% of revenues, respectively.

As of the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, we have not generated any revenue from sale of synthetic graphite. If our commercialization efforts for our synthetic graphite product are successful, we may generate revenue from the sale of our synthetic graphite materials primarily in North America primarily to customers in the EV and grid storage industries.

**Sales and Marketing**

We market and sell our BTS battery testing equipment and related consulting services through a combination of direct contact with customers' research and development experts and third-party distributors who specialize in battery testing technologies and sell to automotive and electronics OEMs, battery developers and manufacturers, and research institutions. As we develop and commercialize our synthetic graphite anode materials business, we market our battery materials through the direct engagement of a combination of our corporate, R&D and operations leadership teams.

**Raw Materials** 

Raw materials for our BTS business are comprised of various equipment and other components from a wide range of third-party suppliers. As we expand our anode materials manufacturing capabilities, we will begin to rely on third-party suppliers for components and materials.

See "Risk Factors—***We may not be able to establish supply relationships for necessary components or may be required to pay costs for components that are more expensive than anticipated, which could delay the introduction or acquisition of additional equipment necessary to support our grow and negatively impact our business*.**"

**Seasonality**

We have not been subject to any seasonality in our continuing operations in any material respect.

**Our Competitive Strengths**

***We develop and supply what we believe is the most accurate battery testing technology in the world.*** Our UHPC technology for short term reliable evaluation of the cycle life of lithium-ion cells was developed in the laboratory at Dalhousie University by Dr. Jeff Dahn, who joined our team as Chief Scientific Advisor on July 1, 2021. This testing technology delivers high accuracy, high precision measurements that are dependable and repeatable, with the potential to allow cycle life evaluation to be made in weeks instead of years. We believe our Ultra-High Precision Coulometry technology provides significantly higher grading measurements than our competitors, enabling us to support the most urgent and innovative performance cell testing projects and is used by industry leaders across the battery sector.

***Our proprietary process technology and capabilities across the battery and energy storage value chain drive innovation and commercial opportunities.*** By playing a critical role across the full value chain, our proprietary testing and development technologies provide us with in-depth visibility into industry and technological trends ranging from materials to end use cases and requirements. We believe that this access should allow us to remain at the forefront of lithium-battery technology. As the broader battery and energy storage industry continues to evolve, we are committed to continuing to expand into new and emerging technologies.

***A leading U.S.-based supplier of battery-grade synthe***ti***c graphite anode material, with capacity scaling as market demand grows.*** Our NOVONIX Anode Materials business is well-positioned to help localize synthetic graphite as U.S. and non-U.S. companies seek to diversify their suppliers of battery materials with the goal of sourcing material within the U.S. We are a leading U.S. based supplier with plans to scale significant domestic volumes of battery-grade synthetic graphite anode material. To our knowledge, we are the only qualified U.S. based supplier of battery-grade synthetic graphite anode material.

***Our high-performance anode materials have longer cycle life with competitive costs.*** NOVONIX Anode Materials' premium graphite showcases higher coulombic efficiency as well as capacity retention compared to industry leading materials in head-to-head comparisons (including a Tier 1 automotive OEM cell used as a reference benchmark). We believe NOVONIX's materials have the highest purity in the market as they contain essentially no contaminants, enhancing safety as well as performance. We believe NOVONIX Anode Materials' process is also a "greener" alternative as it utilizes higher energy efficiency production technology, several lower emission energy sources and no chemical purification, avoiding the environmental and safety risks of such processes. The strength of NOVONIX Anode Materials' products are evidenced by our supply agreements with PowerCo, and Panasonic Energy, and a joint development agreement with LGES. Our mission is to be a leader with high performance, longer life, lower costs, and "greener" materials.

***Our offerings are directly compatible with today's installed and planned battery manufacturing technology.*** NOVONIX Anode Materials provides proven technology that can be integrated into current cell designs with no material additional costs to cell manufacturers. An extremely limited number of suppliers are established outside of Asia, which could lead to a lack of localized supply options. The plug and play characteristic along with superior material performance and competitive pricing is expected to drive continued industry adoption of our offerings.

***Our research and development team consists of renowned battery technology researchers including Dr. Jeff Dahn and Dr. Mark Obrovac.*** Dr. Jeff Dahn, who joined our team as Chief Scientific Advisor on July 1, 2021, is a leading researcher in the field of lithium-ion batteries and materials. Dr. Dahn is a named inventor on over seventy patents and patent applications. Dr. Mark Obrovac is another renowned researcher in battery materials and process technology, a NOVONIX sponsored researcher, and the head of the Obrovac Research Group at Dalhousie University. With the support of leading innovative battery technology researchers, we believe NOVONIX is well-positioned to remain at the forefront of battery technology.

***We are partnering with industry-leading companies.*** To further the development and production of advanced anode materials, we are partnering with Harper International, a global leader in complete thermal processing solutions and technical services to produce advanced materials, to develop proprietary next-generation furnace technology.

------

***We were selected to receive support from the U.S. Government.*** In November 2023, we finalized a $100.0 million grant from the DOE MESC Office, were allocated a $103.0 million 48C tax credit, and received a conditional loan commitment from the Energy Dominance Financing (EDF) Program of the DOE for a direct loan of up to $754.8 million ($692.0 million of principal and $62.8 of capitalized interest), to help finance the growth of our anode materials business. We believe that the grant, tax credits and conditional loan commitment demonstrate the commitment by the U.S. Government to support the establishment of domestic supply of high-performance battery materials, while highlighting the expertise, progress, strategic partnerships, and technology NOVONIX has developed.

**Competition**

The battery materials market consists of many small suppliers (of which we form part of that market), a smaller number of large volume suppliers and a small number of large dominating buyers. As the market continues to grow, we face the risk that one or more competitors, or a new entrant to the market, will increase their competitive position through aggressive marketing campaigns, product innovation, price discounting, acquisitions, or advances in technology. We strive to remain competitive by continuing to develop our products, technologies, and associated intellectual property licenses and maintaining competitive pricing. However, in the event we are unable to adapt to changing market pressures or customer demands and keep pace with technological change relative to our competitors, or we are forced to reduce pricing in response to competition, our revenue and profit margins could be affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and cash flows, financial condition and results of our operations.

Although, to our knowledge, we are the only qualified U.S. based supplier of battery-grade synthetic graphite anode material, there are four categories of companies that could be considered potential competition. The first are established synthetic graphite manufacturing companies outside the United States, predominantly in Asia. While these companies do have established manufacturing capacity, they suffer from a geopolitical disadvantage not being located in the United States and suffer from higher energy costs and have less stringent environmental regulations. The second category of potential competition is natural graphite mining companies. Natural graphite provides historically cheaper pricing than synthetic graphite; however natural graphite significantly underperforms relative to synthetic graphite in battery testing and has potential environmental concerns regarding mining practices. The third potential category of competition are existing graphitization companies and new entrants to the production of battery grade synthetic graphite in the United States. While these companies may have significant furnace operations, we believe there are no other graphitization companies or new entrant that have developed an economic process to manufacture battery grade synthetic graphite to the specifications of tier-1 battery manufacturers building in the United States. The fourth and final category of competition are companies developing disruptive technologies such as silicon anodes and liquid metal/solid-state batteries. There are significant marketing materials available to demonstrate the promise of these potential disruptive technologies. However, we are unaware of any technology that has a path to develop, a cost competitive product in the foreseeable future that will meet the increasing lifetime requirements for EVs and energy storage solutions markets and thus be able to capture more than a niche portion of the battery market. As a result, we do not foresee these new technologies having a material impact on the addressable market for our graphite anode material products in the foreseeable future.

**Intellectual Property**

As of December 31, 2025, we have rights to eight issued patents and fourteen active families of patent applications. Our oldest patent application was filed with a priority date in 2015. This patent information is based on our current assessment of patents that we own or control or have exclusively licensed. The information is subject to revision, for example, in the event of changes in the law or legal rulings affecting our patents or if we become aware of new information.

The actual protection afforded by a patent varies in each country and is dependent on the type of patent, the scope of its coverage as determined by the patent office or courts in that country, and the availability of legal remedies in the country. Patents expire, on a country-by-country basis, at various times depending on several factors, including the filing date of the corresponding patent application(s), the availability of patent term adjustment, patent term extension and supplemental protection certificates and requirements for terminal disclaimers. In most countries, including Australia and

------

the United States, the patent term is 20 years from the earliest claimed filing date of a non-provisional patent application or its foreign equivalent in the applicable country. In the United States, a patent's term can be lengthened in certain cases by a patent term adjustment, which compensates a patentee for administrative delays by the USPTO in examining and granting a patent, or may be shortened if a patent is terminally disclaimed over a commonly owned patent or a patent naming a common inventor and having an earlier expiration date.

We may not be able to develop patentable products or processes or obtain patents from pending patent applications. In the event of patent issuance, the patents may not be entirely sufficient to protect the proprietary technology owned by or licensed to us or our partners. Our current patents, or patents that may be issued on pending applications, may be challenged, invalidated, infringed, or circumvented. In addition, changes to patent laws in the United States or in other countries may limit our ability to defend or enforce our patents or may apply retroactively to affect the term and/or scope of our patents. Our patents may be challenged by third parties in post-issuance administrative proceedings or in litigation as invalid, not infringed, or unenforceable under U.S., Canadian, U.K, Australian or other foreign laws, or they may be infringed by third parties. As a result, we are or may be from time to time involved in the defense and enforcement of our patent or other intellectual property rights in a court of law and administrative tribunals, such as in USPTO inter parties review or reexamination proceedings, foreign opposition proceedings or related legal and administrative proceedings in the United States and elsewhere. The costs of defending our patents or enforcing our proprietary rights in post-issuance administrative proceedings or litigation may be substantial and the outcome can be uncertain. An adverse outcome may allow third parties to use our proprietary technologies without a license from us.

Furthermore, we rely upon trade secrets and know-how and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position. We seek to protect our proprietary information, in part, by using confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with commercial partners, collaborators, employees and consultants. These agreements are designed to protect our proprietary information and, in the case of the invention assignment agreements, to grant it ownership of technologies that are developed through a relationship with a third party. These agreements may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach. In addition, our trade secrets may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by competitors. To the extent that our commercial partners, collaborators, employees, and consultants use intellectual property owned by others in their work for us, disputes may arise as to the rights in related or resulting knowledge and inventions.

Our commercial success will also depend in part on not infringing upon the proprietary rights of third parties. It is uncertain whether the issuance of any third-party patent would require us to alter our development or commercial strategies for our product candidates or processes, or to obtain licenses or cease certain activities. Our breach of any license agreements or failure to obtain a license to proprietary rights that we may require to develop or commercialize our future products may have an adverse impact on us. If third parties prepare and file patent applications in the United States that also claim technology to which we have rights, we may have to participate in interference or derivation proceedings in the USPTO to determine priority of invention.

We currently rely on our registered and unregistered trademarks, trade names and service marks, as well as our domain names and logos, as appropriate, to market our brands and to build and maintain brand recognition.

**Regulation**

Our business is subject to regulation in several areas. Changes in government, monetary policies and laws and regulations, among other things, can have a significant impact on our assets, operations, financial performance and, ultimately, the value of our company and our ordinary shares. Changes may occur in the U.S., Canada, Australia, or any other country in which we operate, or subsequently start to operate. Such changes are likely to be beyond our control and may affect the industries in which we operate, our company, or both. Non-compliance with changing laws and regulations may expose the company to legal risk via investigations or litigious proceedings from regulators, counterparties, or consumers. This section sets forth a summary of the principal laws and regulations relevant to our business.

If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate certain operations, and we may be unable to adequately control our costs."*** and ***"Our DOE grant, and any future grants, loans or incentives we may obtain from governmental agencies, will impose restrictions and compliance obligations on us, with associated costs and risks."***).

***Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules***

As a company incorporated in Australia, we remain subject to the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), or Corporations Act, and we are regulated by both the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, or ASIC, the country's corporate regulator, and the Australian Securities Exchange, or ASX, as an entity listed on that exchange. Accordingly, we must comply with all Corporations Act requirements and the Listing Rules maintained by ASX. Changes to these rules and requirements may have an impact on our assets, operations, financial performance, value, or other matters. Breaches of these rules and regulations may give rise to regulatory action from ASIC or ASX or litigious proceedings initiated by other stakeholders.

***The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act***

The FCPA prohibits any U.S. individual or business from paying, offering, or authorizing payment or offering of anything of value, directly or indirectly, to any foreign official, political party or candidate for the purpose of influencing any act or decision of the foreign entity in order to assist the individual or business in obtaining or retaining business. The FCPA also obligates companies whose securities are listed in the United States to comply with accounting provisions requiring us to maintain books and records that accurately and fairly reflect all transactions of the corporation, including international subsidiaries, and to devise and maintain an adequate system of internal accounting controls for international operations.

------

***Environmental, Health and Safety***

Our facilities and operations are subject to numerous environmental, health and safety ("EHS") laws and regulations which require significant capital investment on an ongoing basis and could give rise to unforeseen liability, including as a result of a governmental enforcement action or obligations to remediate contaminated sites, including third-party contaminated sites where we have sent waste for treatment or disposal. EHS laws or their enforcement may become more stringent over time, which could increase our operating costs and subject us to additional liabilities.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Regulatory Matters* contained herein.

**Sustainability Initiatives**

We believe that an increasing emphasis on environmentally conscious battery technologies is key to a sustainable future with widespread adoption of EVs and grid ESS. Many current manufacturing methods for key battery materials are energy intensive, wasteful or hazardous to the environment. End users and OEMs are focused on sourcing materials from cleaner technologies. We are committed to the development of technologies that support key sustainability criteria in the field of battery materials and technologies, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Longer Life Batteries.** We believe that the use of NOVONIX's synthetic graphite leads to longer life batteries which therefore generate less overall waste in recycling or disposal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Higher Energy Efficiency.** Improvements in process technology demonstrated by NOVONIX Anode Materials as well as through NOVONIX's all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis process technology could reduce the amount of energy required to produce key battery materials. NOVONIX's proprietary graphitization furnace technology was developed with the objective of being the highest efficiency graphitization technology.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Reduced Chemical Usage.** NOVONIX Anode Materials uses no chemical purification, which reduces risks of harmful chemical leaks, spills, or exposure, while eliminating costs of compliance with chemical disposal requirements. Additionally, NOVONIX's all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis technology does not use chemicals or reagents that would typically be used and require reclamation and treatment after processing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Reduced Waste Generation.** NOVONIX is focused on high yield technologies to produce key battery materials. NOVONIX Anode Materials process development has maintained what we believe to be industry-leading yields through our graphitization furnaces. NOVONIX's all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis technology can allow for the manufacturing of cathode materials requiring essentially no reagents, reduced water consumption, no sodium sulphate byproduct generation and other reductions in waste streams.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Cleaner Power Inputs.** NOVONIX is focused on sourcing power for its manufacturing from clean sources of energy generation. As such, our current location in the Tennessee Valley Authority has an electrical grid make-up which is over 50% non-carbon producing sources of energy including nuclear, hydro, wind and solar.

**D.** **Property, Plants, and Equipment**

We maintain facilities in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Bedford and Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.

*Chattanooga, Tennessee*

We lease property with an area of approximately 120,000 square feet. We acquired an additional property with an area of approximately 404,000 square feet in late July 2021. In April 2025, we signed a Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement to purchase a 182-acre parcel in the Enterprise South Industrial Park in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Company does not intend to close on the purchase of the Enterprise South land until such time as certain conditions precedent have been satisfied. These properties are used, or are intended to be used, in connection with our NAM business.

*Nova Scotia*

We own two properties totaling 57,000 square feet. These properties are used in connection with our BTS business.

------

*Australia*

We previously held tenement rights in the Mount Dromedary Graphite Project (the "MDG Project"), a high-grade natural flake graphite deposit located in Northern Queensland, Australia. As of the date of this annual report, we have not generated any revenue from the sale of natural graphite.

In April 2024, NOVONIX signed a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement ("Mt. Dromedary SPA") with Lithium Energy Limited ("Lithium Energy") for Lithium Energy to acquire the Mt. Dromedary Graphite Deposit, which is located directly adjacent to and is a continuation of the graphite mineralization within Lithium Energy's Burke Graphite Deposit in Queensland. The Company and Lithium Energy had proposed to spin-out their consolidated high-grade graphite assets via an Initial Public Offering (IPO) by Axon Graphite Limited ("Axon Graphite") (being a subsidiary of Lithium Energy). In light of prevailing market conditions and following consultation with the lead manager, the Company and Lithium Energy determined not to proceed with completion under the Mt. Dromedary SPA and the spin-out of their consolidated graphite assets via an IPO of shares in Axon Graphite.

On September 24, 2025, the Company sold its wholly-owned subsidiary, MD South Tenements Pty Ltd ("MDCo"), holder of contractual interests in the Mt. Dromedary Natural Graphite Project in Queensland, in consideration of A$2 million cash pursuant to a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement with Lithium Energy. Lithium Energy also repaid A$250,000 advanced by the Company under an IPO Funding Deed with Axon Graphite, being the Company's contribution towards 50% of the IPO related costs incurred by Axon Graphite.

See Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—A. Operating Results.

We believe our facilities in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Nova Scotia, are adequate and suitable for our current and anticipated needs and that, should it be needed, suitable additional or alternative space will be available to accommodate our operations.

**Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects**

*The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and their related notes included in this annual report on Form 20-F.*

*Certain information included in this discussion and analysis includes forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. For further information on important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results described in the forward-looking statements contained in this discussion and analysis, see "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," above, and the risks described in Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors contained herein*.

**A.** **Operating Results.**

**Overview**

NOVONIX is a leading critical mineral, battery materials, and technology company aiming to revolutionize the global lithium-ion battery industry with innovative, sustainable technologies, high-performance materials, and more efficient production methods. The Company is growing its high-performance synthetic graphite anode material manufacturing operations, manufactures industry-leading battery cell testing equipment, and has developed an all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis process. Through advanced R&D capabilities, proprietary technology, strategic partnerships, and as a leading North American supplier of battery-grade synthetic graphite, NOVONIX has gained a prominent position in the critical mineral, electric vehicle and energy storage systems battery industry and is working to power a cleaner energy future.

We currently operate two core businesses: *NOVONIX Anode Materials* and *NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions*. Prior to December 2025, we also had a third reporting segment related to Mt Dromedary. In September 2025, the Company announced the sale of the wholly owned subsidiary holding the contractual interests in Mt Dromedary, and therefore, prior period disclosures are shown with three reporting segments.

NAM is the leading domestic supplier of battery-grade synthetic graphite, a critical mineral, and was established with the objective of commercializing what we believe is the most advanced anode material in the market for EVs and energy storage applications. These end-markets continue to demand high-performance batteries with longer life cycles, while at the same time pursuing cost efficiencies to continue to drive mass adoption. Anode materials are one of the most significant components that define the overall performance, reliability, and cycle life of the battery cell. To our knowledge, we are the only qualified U.S.-based producer of EV battery-grade synthetic graphite anode material and believe NAM is well positioned to onshore the supply chain and support the rapid growth in demand for these advanced anode materials in North America and globally.

BTS provides industry leading battery testing technology and research and development ("R&D") services to create next generation batteries. BTS also serves as the pillar of innovation across the NOVONIX ecosystem by creating a positive feedback loop with our anode and cathode materials businesses through the development of applications and strategic partnerships. This collaboration drives our continuous technological innovation and enables us to deliver best-in-class products and services for customers. For information on the binding term sheet we recently signed for the proposed sale of the BTS business, see Note 32 - *Events after the reporting date*. We continue to present BTS as part of our overall business in this Annual Report on Form 20-F because, as of December 31, 2025 as well as the date of this report, we continue to own the BTS business.

The Company previously held tenement rights in the Mount Dromedary Graphite Project ("Mt Dromedary"), a natural graphite exploration asset in Northern Queensland, Australia. In September 2025, the Company announced the sale of its wholly owned subsidiary holding the contractual interests in the Mt Dromedary for cash consideration of A$2 million pursuant to a share sale and purchase agreement with Lithium Energy Limited (ASX: LEL), and a repayment of A$250,000 previously advanced under an IPO funding arrangement. Following this transaction, the Company has directed its focus toward the production of synthetic graphite and its battery materials and technology operations.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors ("****From time to time we may enter into negotiations for acquisitions, dispositions, partnerships, joint ventures or investments that are not ultimately consummated or, if consummated, may not be successful."****)*

***Overview of Financials***

We have incurred operating losses since our inception in 2012. Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will be dependent on our ability to begin significant production and commercialization of NOVONIX Anode Materials business' synthetic graphite product. Accordingly, we expect to continue to incur significant costs as we continue to scale production of our synthetic graphite product, the majority of which will be associated with planned production equipment spend. We also expect to incur significant expenses associated with operating as a public company in Australia and the United States, including additional legal, accounting, investor relations, compliance, and other expenses.

As a result, we will need substantial additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate sufficient revenue from synthetic graphite sales, we expect to finance our operations through the issue of equity, debt financings, or other capital sources, which may include collaborations with other companies or other strategic transactions as well as U.S. government financing support and tax incentives. We may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms. If we fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as and when needed, we may have to significantly delay, scale back, or discontinue the development and commercialization of our synthetic graphite product.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ("***We may need to obtain funding from time to time to finance our growth and operations, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate certain operations, and we may be unable to adequately control their costs.***")

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the commercialization of battery-grade synthetic graphite, we are unable to predict the timing or amount of increased costs or when or if we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate product sales, we may never become profitable. If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis, then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to scale back or discontinue our operations.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ("***We have a history of financial losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses in the near future.***")

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $79.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company claimed $23.1 million from the $100.0 million DOE CMEI grant. We continue to receive, install, and commission equipment at Riverside to meet future production demand capacity to support our planned start of production for Panasonic Energy in late 2027. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, along with additional sources of capital, will support capacity expansion to meet future production demand and offtake agreements. We have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. See "—Liquidity and Capital Resources," below.

**Components of Our Results of Operations**

***Segment Information***

Our segments consist of Battery Materials (NAM) and Battery Technology (BTS) as of December 31, 2025. Previously, our segments included Graphite Exploration (Mt Dromedary), however in September 2025 the Company sold its holding in the contractual interests in Mt Dromedary. In order to comply with the requirement to discuss significant components of revenue and expenses, and to enable investors to understand the consolidated amounts, where applicable we have provided a discussion along segmental lines. As a result, the discussion and analysis of segments is integrated with the discussion of the consolidated amounts to avoid confusion and duplication of disclosure.

***Revenue*** 

NOVONIX Anode Materials

As of the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, we have not generated any revenue from sale of synthetic graphite. If our commercialization efforts for our synthetic graphite product are successful, we may generate revenue from the sale of our synthetic graphite materials. In addition, if we enter into additional collaboration, partnership or license agreements with third parties, we may generate revenue in the future from payments from such collaboration or license agreements or a combination of product sales and those payments.

NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions

Revenue is contributed through two primary BTS business lines: hardware sales and consulting services. Our customers include leading battery makers and researchers and equipment manufacturers, and numerous specialty materials, consumer electronics OEMs and automotive OEMs.

When we sell battery testing equipment, we enter into a contract with our customers covering the price, specifications, delivery dates and warranty for the products being purchased among other things. Our contractual delivery periods vary, but are typically about three months. Contracts for battery testing equipment can range in value based on the amount of equipment provided and the duration of the contract. Revenue from the sales of BTS hardware is recognized at the point in time when the hardware is delivered and the legal title has passed.

The consulting services business provides battery cell design, implementation and support services under fixed-price and variable price contracts. Revenue from providing services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period relative to the remaining services under the contract because the customer receives and uses the benefits simultaneously. This is determined based on the actual labor hours spent relative to the total expected labor hours.

Where the contracts include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling prices. Where these are not directly observable, they are estimated based on expected cost-plus margin.

Our BTS revenue is affected by changes in the price, volume and mix of products and services purchased by BTS' customers. The price and volume of our products is driven by the demand for our products, changes in product mix between equipment and services, geographic mix of our customers, and strength of competitors' product offerings.

Graphite Exploration

As of the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, we did not generate any revenue from the sale of natural graphite. As previously discussed, the Company sold its holding in the contractual interests of Mt Dromedary in September 2025.

------

***Other Income***

Other income is primarily comprised of interest income, joint development project reimbursements, and grant income.

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

Joint development project reimbursements are recognized in other income when mutually agreed upon development milestones are met.

Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and all attached conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related costs, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. When the grant relates to an asset, it is recognized as an offset to the cost of the related asset.

***Product Manufacturing and Operating Costs***

Product manufacturing and operating costs consists of product costs, including purchased materials and components, as well as costs related to shipping, which, as at the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, have been in connection with our BTS business only. Our product costs are affected by the underlying cost of raw materials and component costs.

***Administrative and Other Expenses***

Administrative and other expenses consist primarily of travel expenses, facilities expenses, audit, legal, tax, insurance, information technology and other expenses.

We expect to incur additional audit, tax, accounting, legal, and other expenses related to compliance with applicable securities and other regulations, as well as additional insurance, investor relations and other expenses associated with being a public company in Australia and the United States. In addition, if we cease to qualify as a foreign private issuer in the future, we would expect that we would incur additional expenses as a domestic reporting company in the United States.

*See Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ***("We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional cost and expense.")***

***Borrowing Costs***

The borrowing costs are recognized in the profit or loss statement in the reporting period in which they are incurred.

Borrowing costs consist primarily of interest accrued on loan notes and borrowings, loss on redemption of loan notes and unwinding of fair value gains.

Transaction costs associated with borrowing are treated as a reduction of the debt proceeds.

Transaction costs consist primarily of the incremental costs directly attributable to issuing the debt such as legal fees, underwriting commissions, and closing costs.

***Impairment Losses***

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment includes the consideration of external and internal sources of information, including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the

------

asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use, to the asset's carrying amount. Any excess of the assets carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another accounting standard. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other accounting standard.

***Depreciation and Amortization Expenses***

Depreciation expense consists of costs associated with property, plant and equipment ("PP&E") which are depreciated over their expected useful lives. We expect that as we increase both our revenues and the number of our general and administrative personnel, we will invest in additional PP&E to support our growth resulting in additional depreciation expense.

Amortization expense consists of costs associated with technology intangible assets other than goodwill, which are amortized over their expected useful lives.

***Research and Development Costs***

Research and development costs primarily represent the Company's investment in research and development activities for our all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis process and our data analytics project. At present, our research and development activities are conducted through our two core businesses: BTS and NAM; all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis and data analytics fall under BTS R&D.

Research expenditures are recognized as an expense when incurred. Costs incurred on development projects (relating to the design and testing of enhancements or extensions of products from the all-dry, zero-waste project) are recognized as intangible assets when:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The intention to complete the intangible asset and use it or sell it;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The ability to use or sell the intangible asset;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•How the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The availability of adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

The expenditure capitalized comprises all directly attributable costs, including costs of materials, services, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognized as an expense when incurred. Development costs previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalized development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortized from the point at which the asset is ready for use on a straight-line basis over its useful life.

***Share Based Compensation***

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

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 a binomial or Monte Carlo option pricing model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. The accounting estimates and assumptions, including share price volatility, interest rates and vesting periods would have no impact on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period but may impact the profit or loss and equity.

------

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized 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 recognized in profit or loss for the reporting period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognized in previous reporting periods.

Share-based payment expenses are recognized over the period during which the employee provides the relevant services. This period may commence prior to the formal grant date, such as where the granting of options or performance rights are subject to shareholder approval. In this situation, the entity estimates the grant date fair value of the equity instruments for the purposes of recognizing an expense for the services received during the period between service commencement date and grant date. Once the grant date has been established, the fair value of the equity instrument is calculated, and the earlier estimate is revised so that the amount recognized for services received is ultimately based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments. Where there is a difference between the estimated grant date fair value and the actual grant date fair value, adjusting entries are recognized in share-based payment expense and the share-based payment reserve.

***Employee Benefits Expense***

Employee benefits expenses consist of fixed annual remuneration, short-term incentives, and long-term incentives. Employees receive their fixed annual remuneration in cash. Short-term incentives are payable on achievement of mutually agreed KPIs each fiscal year with short-term incentives being payable in either cash or by way of the issue of fully paid ordinary shares. The Company has historically paid short-term incentives in cash.

At the Board's discretion, employees are invited to participate in the long-term incentive program which comprises one-off grants of options and/or performance rights, with varying vesting conditions.

***Foreign Currency Gain (Loss)***

Foreign currency gain (loss) results from a change in exchange rates between our functional currency and the currency in which a foreign currency transaction is denominated.

***Income Tax (Expense) Benefit***

The income tax expense or benefit for the reporting period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognized for prior reporting periods, where applicable.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, the timing of the reversal can be controlled, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses.

------

The carrying amount of recognized and unrecognized deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognized are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognized deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.

------

***Revenue*** 

Revenue decrease by $0.3 million to $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $5.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to softer demand for consulting services partially offset by increased demand for hardware sales in our BTS segment.

***Product Manufacturing and Operating Costs***

Product manufacturing and operating costs increased $0.7 million to $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to short-term supply chain impacts on certain material components.

***Administrative and Other Expenses***

Administrative and other expenses increased $2.3 million to $22.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $19.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily due to consulting fees related to the continued build out of the Riverside facility.

***Loss on equity investment securities at fair value through profit or loss***

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company assessed the fair value of the investment in KORE Power and determined that it should be reduced to $0 as of December 31, 2024, and recorded a loss of $15.3 million. This determination was based in part on milestones regarding financing, construction and the timeline of KORE Power's KOREPlex facility planned in Arizona not being met and the resulting announcement that the KOREPlex facility was not to be constructed and the change in Chief Executive Officer leadership of KORE Power. The Company maintained its assessment of the fair value of the investment in KORE Power as $0 as of December 31, 2025.

***Loss on extinguishment of convertible notes***

Loss on extinguishment of convertible notes was $32.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 (2024: Nil). The loss arose in connection with the conversion of Yorkville convertible notes. The loss primarily reflects the difference between the fair value of the ordinary shares issued and the carrying amount of the convertible notes at the extinguishment date.

***Share based compensation***

Share based compensation reduced $6.6 million to a gain of $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to an expense of $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the reversal of previously recognised share-based compensation following the departure of certain key management personnel.

***Employee Benefits Expense***

Employee Benefits expense increased $0.4 million to $24.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $23.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher personnel-related costs to support the alignment with the expansion of the business.

***Foreign Currency (Loss)/Gain***

Foreign currency gain for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $1.8 million compared to a foreign currency loss for the year ended December 31, 2024, of $1.2 million. Our foreign currency gain/loss fluctuates based on our exposure to transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the related subsidiary.

------

***(Loss)/Gain on fair value of derivative financial instruments***

Gain on the fair value of derivative financial instruments for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $5.1 million, compared to a loss of $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The year-over-year change was primarily attributable to the remeasurement of the derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes issued to LGES in 2023 and Yorkville in 2025. The fair value movement was largely driven by the decrease in the Company's share price between December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2025, which reduced the estimated value of the embedded conversion features.

**Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023**

Directors, Senior Management and Employees — B. - Compensation*.

**B.** **Liquidity and Capital Resources**

The liquidity and capital resources discussion that follows contains certain estimates as of the date of this annual report on Form 20-F of our estimated future sources and uses of liquidity (including estimated future capital resources and capital expenditures) and future financial and operating results. These estimates represent forward looking information and reflect numerous assumptions made by us with respect to industry performance, general business, economic, regulatory, market and financial conditions and other future events, and matters specific to our businesses, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict and many of which are beyond our control. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

***Material Cash Commitments and Contractual Maturities***

The Company has contractual obligations in respect of a non-cancellable operating lease for its Lookout Valley facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee, of $6.5 million. The Company recognized a right-of-use asset for this lease.

The Company had commitments for capital expenditure as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 of $15.1 million and $53.0 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2025, the contractual maturities of the Company's non-derivative financial liabilities were as follows ($ in millions):

---

| | | | | | | | |

| Total non-derivatives | $15.1 | $1.8 | $64.2 | $10.3 | $32.2 | $123.6 | $113.6 |

---

***Funding Requirements***

As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $79.9 million. On November 1, 2023 we were awarded a $100.0 million grant from the Department of Energy Office of Critical Minerals and Energy Innovation (CMEI) to be utilized in the expansion of our Riverside facility. Receipts from this Grant will be paid against verified expenses and are required to be matched with Company funding. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company claimed $23.1 million from the $100.0 million DOE CMEI grant, bringing the total claimed to date under the grant to $42.3 million. We will need to obtain additional funding to expand our production facilities and meet our targeted production capacities and fund our continuing operations.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ("***We may need to obtain funding from time to time to finance our growth and operations, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate certain operations, and we may be unable to adequately control their costs.***")

------

***Sources and Uses of Liquidity***

We expect our costs to continue to increase in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue to purchase additional production equipment associated with the manufacture of synthetic graphite.

In July 2025, NOVONIX and Yorkville executed a binding multi-tranche funding agreement under which Yorkville committed up to $100.0 million (of which $40.0 million required mutual consent) in exchange for the issuance of unsecured convertible debentures. In October 2025, the final tranche was completed fulfilling the entire $100.0 million funding commitment under the transaction.

In November 2024, the Company successfully completed a fully underwritten placement of new fully paid ordinary shares ("New Shares") to institutional and sophisticated investors (the "Institutional Offering") at an offer price of A$0.60 per New Share ("Institutional Placement") for net proceeds of $26.6 million. Under the Institutional Placement, the Company issued approximately 74.1 million New Shares pursuant to the Company's existing placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1. The 74.1 million New Shares issued under the Institutional Placement rank equally with existing shares on issue. In connection with this equity placement, the Company also (i) issued approximately 12.8 million shares under the second placement to existing major shareholder Phillips 66 (the "Secondary Placement") after shareholder approval at an extraordinary general meeting on 22 January 2025 to raise $5.0 million and (ii) offered a non-underwritten Share Purchase Plan ("SPP") which closed on 10 January 2025. The Company issued 53,887,112 ordinary shares to eligible shareholders to raise $20.2 million (before costs) under the SPP.

The Company will use the proceeds from the Yorkville debenture transaction, Institutional Offering, the Secondary Placement and the SPP to purchase, install, and commission additional equipment in the Company's Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

In December 2024, the Company announced a conditional loan commitment from the U.S. Department of Energy through the EDF for a direct loan of up to $754.8 million ($692 million in principal and $62.8 million in capitalized interest) to be applied towards partially financing a proposed new facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. If finalized, the loan would be applied towards partially financing the construction of the new facility, Enterprise South, to be located in the Enterprise South Industrial Park in Chattanooga, Tennessee. This facility is expected to produce approximately 31,500 tonnes per annum of synthetic graphite.

On June 21, 2023, pursuant to the LGES Note Agreement, we issued an aggregate principal amount of $30 million unsecured convertible notes to LGES (the "Convertible Notes"). The Convertible Notes bear interest at an annual percentage rate of 4.0%, have a maturity date of June 7, 2028 and will mandatorily convert into ordinary shares upon LGES' acceptance of the first purchase order under any purchase agreement that it may enter into with NOVONIX. However, LGES may elect to convert some or all of the Convertible Notes prior to such time. No interest would be payable on the Convertible Notes that are converted into ordinary shares prior to the maturity date. On the maturity date, LGES may elect to redeem or convert all the Convertible Notes then outstanding, in which case interest will be payable in cash (in the case of redemption) or "in-kind" (in the case of conversion). The conversion price of the Convertible Notes is A$1.60 per ordinary share. The proceeds from issuing the Convertible Notes have been utilized for continued development of anode materials, operational needs and general corporate purposes.

See *Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions*.

In addition, we expect to incur significant commercialization expenses related to sales, marketing, and distribution to the extent that such sales, marketing and distribution are not the responsibility of any future customers. Further, we expect to incur additional expenses associated with operating as a public company in Australia and the United States. We may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currently anticipate or that these efforts may not result in revenues, which would further increase our losses, impact our ability to repay our debt (including the Convertible Notes issued to LGES) and require future capital raises to maintain our business.

------

We believe we will continue to incur operating and net losses in each fiscal year until at least the time we begin significant production of our anode materials, which is not expected to occur earlier than the second half of 2027 and may occur later or not at all. These conditions give rise to substantial doubt over our ability to continue as a going concern. If we were not able to continue as a going concern, or if there were continued doubt about our ability to do so, additional financing may not be available to us.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ("***We have a history of financial losses and expect to incur significant expenses and continuing losses in the near future.***").

Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenue from the sale of synthetic graphite, if ever, we expect to finance our operating activities through our existing liquidity and future financing activities, including a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic partnerships and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, ADS holders' ownership interests will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of such holders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, intellectual property, future revenue streams or product candidates. If we are unable to raise additional funds through financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ("***We may need to obtain funding from time to time to finance our growth and operations, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate certain operations, and we may be unable to adequately control their costs.***").

Our present and future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the initiation, progress, timing, and costs associated with our planned capacity expansion, including but not limited to onboarding and training production operators, installation of production equipment, and installation and commissioning of required supporting building and equipment infrastructure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•costs associated with expanding our organization, including our management infrastructure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•selling and marketing activities undertaken in connection with the commercialization of our synthetic graphite product; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the costs of operating as a public listed company in both Australia and the United States.

***Cash Flows from Operating Activities***

For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $41.2 million and $40.4 million, respectively. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in payments to suppliers and employees.

Payments to suppliers and employees increased to $50.8 million in the year ended December 31, 2025, from $50.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2024, in line with increased business activities in our NAM segments.

*Year Ended December 31, 2024, compared to Year Ended December 31, 2023*

***Cash Flows from Investing Activities***

For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $32.9 million and $18.2 million, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $31.3 million in payments for property, plant and equipment partially offset by government grants received.

*Years Ended December 31, 2024, compared to Year Ended December 31, 2023* 

For a comparison of our Cash Flows from Investing Activities for the year ended December 31, 2024, to the year ended December 31, 2023, see "Item 5.

***Cash Flows from Financing Activities***

For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, net cash provided by financing activities was $109.9 million and net cash used in financing activities was $25.2 million, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the net proceeds of $95.0 million convertible debentures issued to Yorkville, proceeds from the issue of shares of $25.1 million, and transaction costs related to the issue of equity securities and convertible debt securities of $7.7 million.

*Year Ended December 31, 2024, compared to Year Ended December 31, 2023*

**Credit Risk**

The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk with respect to any counterparties or on a geographical basis. Amounts are considered "past due" when the debt has not been settled, in line with the terms and conditions agreed between the Company and the customer to the transaction.

The Company assesses impairment on trade and other receivables using the simplified approach of the expected credit loss (ECL) model under AASB 9.

The balance of receivables that remain within initial trade terms are considered to be of high credit quality.

------

**Emerging Growth Company Status**

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of specified reduced disclosure and other requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•exemption from the auditor attestation requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in the assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements;·

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation, including golden parachute compensation.

We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time that we are no longer an emerging growth company.

Accordingly, the information that we provide shareholders and holders of the ADSs may be different than you might obtain from other public companies. We will cease to be an emerging growth company upon the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have more than $1.235 billion in annual revenue; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we qualify as a "large accelerated filer"; (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities; and (iv) the last day of the fiscal year in which the fifth anniversary of the completion of our first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.

**Foreign Private Issuer Status**

We are also considered a "foreign private issuer" under U.S. securities laws. In our capacity as a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain rules under the Exchange Act that impose certain disclosure obligations and procedural requirements for proxy solicitations under Section 14 of the Exchange Act. In addition, principal shareholders are exempt from the reporting and they, our senior management and the members of our Board of Directors are exempt from the "short-swing" profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Moreover, we are not required to file periodic reports and financial statements with the SEC as frequently or as promptly as U.S. companies whose securities are registered under the Exchange Act. In addition, we are not required to comply with Regulation FD, which restricts the selective disclosure of material information.

We may take advantage of these exemptions until such time as we are no longer a foreign private issuer. We will remain a foreign private issuer until such time that 50% or more of our outstanding voting securities are held by U.S. residents and any of the following three circumstances applies: (i) the majority of the members of Board of Directors or our senior management are U.S. citizens or residents; (ii) more than 50% of our assets are located in the United States; or (iii) our business is administered principally in the United States.

We have taken advantage of certain reduced reporting and other requirements in this annual report. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different from the information you receive from other public companies.

**Passive Foreign Investment Company Status**

Generally, we will be a passive foreign investment company ("PFIC") for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules with respect to the income and assets of our subsidiaries, either: (1) at least 75% of our gross income is "passive income" or (2) at least 50% of the average quarterly value of our total gross assets (which would generally be measured by fair market value of our assets) is attributable to assets that produce "passive income" or are held for the production of "passive income." Passive income for this purpose generally includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, gains from commodities and securities transactions and the excess of gains over losses from the disposition of assets which produce passive income.

------

We believe that we were not a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ended December 31, 2025. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or for any subsequent year. The determination of PFIC status is a factual determination that must be made annually and cannot be made until the close of a taxable year. The determination depends on, among other things, the composition of our income and assets. In this regard, cash generally is treated as a passive asset for PFIC purposes, and the composition of our income and assets will be affected by the amount and timing of any cash we receive, including from any grant funding, government loans or other sources, and the spending of such funds. The fair market value of our assets (including goodwill) may be determined in large part based on the market price of the ADSs and our ordinary shares, which may fluctuate. Moreover, the determination of PFIC status depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules which are subject to differing interpretations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we would not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

If we were to be a PFIC, a U.S. holder would be subject to increased tax liability (generally including an interest charge on certain taxes treated as having been deferred under the PFIC rules) on any gain realized on a sale or other disposition of the ADSs or ordinary shares and on the receipt of certain "excess distributions" received with respect to the ADSs or ordinary shares, unless such U.S. holder makes certain elections. One such election, the "QEF Election," will be unavailable to a U.S. holder because we do not intend to provide information that a U.S. holder would need to make a valid QEF Election.

U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential application of the PFIC rules to their ADSs or ordinary shares. The language in this section supersedes the language included in *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* (***"If we are a passive foreign investment company, there could be adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. holders.")*** contained herein and supplements the discussion under *Item 10. Additional Information—E. Taxation—U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations* contained herein.

4)continued to provide samples of synthetic graphite material to customers and potential customers for their battery, energy storage, and industrial applications;

5)received a preliminary determination from the U.S. Department of Commerce imposing antidumping tariffs of ranging from 93.5% to 102.7% and countervailing duties of at least 11.5% on imported battery-grade graphite from China; and

6)brought in a new team of executives for this new phase of production and growth, bringing to NOVONIX significant experience building out a manufacturing facility for engineered materials, commercializing innovative technology, and raising funds from debt and equity providers in the U.S. and globally.

This includes Mike O'Kronley as Chief Executive Officer. With a strong technical foundation in engineering, Mike brings over 30 years of automotive experience, including 15 years in the lithium-ion battery and battery materials space. We also brought in Kimberly Heimert as Chief Legal and Risk Officer in September 2025. Kimberly brings over 30 years of global experience in private equity, debt finance, infrastructure investment, and clean energy. Dwayne Johnson joined us as Chief Operating Officer in November 2025. Dwayne brings over 30 years of experience in manufacturing and capital project leadership, with a proven record of driving strategic growth, operational excellence, and continuous improvement across multiple industries. All are based in Chattanooga, TN, alongside Robert Long, Chief Financial Officer.

In 2024, we significantly revamped our remuneration framework to be in line with feedback from shareholders. We did not make any significant changes in 2025 and are not contemplating any significant changes in 2026. We will continue to align with performance-based rewards as the Company is poised to enter a growth phase in 2026 and beyond.

------

The changes implemented to our compensation programs in 2024 were in response to the feedback presented in our 2024 AGM, which received 90% support from shareholders. As such, we have continued these practices into our 2025 Remuneration Report with key elements such as:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the updated pay philosophy with guiding principles;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a streamlined and clear narrative in our annual remuneration report;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•clear disclosures for short-term incentive ("STI") metrics; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•equity grants under our long-term incentive plan ("LTIP") consisting 100% of performance rights vesting based on performance over a three-year period, using challenging relative total shareholder return ("TSR") performance goals and a revenue modifier. These equity grants included no performance rights with time-based vesting.

As always, we welcome your feedback and input to ensure we build this critical company as a leader in the US production of synthetic graphite.

We are all honored to be part of this important mission and are grateful for your support.

With gratitude,

**REMUNERATION AND OUR 2025 PERFORMANCE**

We are in the business of supplying advanced, high-performance battery materials, equipment, and services to the global lithium-ion battery market. Founded in 2012 and publicly traded since 2015, we started as a company in a nascent industry and continue to grow scale in an increasingly highly specialized industry.

As part of our business strategy, we maintain a lean but experienced team. To deliver on our ambitious business objectives, we aim to attract and retain high-quality employees who embody our core values of curiosity, collaboration, and commitment in a competitive market and even more competitive industry. We are a dual-listed Australian corporation with a management team and operations based entirely in North America, with approximately 180 full-time employees in the United States and Canada.

In 2025, our management made important strides in our business, executing on several critical business goals, namely:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| ![img58969013_9.jpg](img58969013_9.jpg) | delivering the first mass production, commercial-grade sample of synthetic graphite for industrial applications, becoming the first North American company to reach this milestone; |
| ![img58969013_9.jpg](img58969013_9.jpg) | completing the installation and commissioning of all the mass production equipment required for Panasonic, our lead customer; |
| ![img58969013_9.jpg](img58969013_9.jpg) | continuing to provide samples of synthetic graphite material to customers and potential customers for their battery, energy storage, and industrial applications;  |
| ![img58969013_9.jpg](img58969013_9.jpg) | receiving a preliminary determination from the U.S. Department of Commerce imposing antidumping tariffs of ranging from 93.5% to 102.7% and countervailing duties of at least 11.5% on imported battery-grade graphite from China; and  |
| ![img58969013_9.jpg](img58969013_9.jpg) | bringing in a new team of executives, giving NOVONIX significant experience building out a manufacturing facility for engineered materials, commercializing innovative technology, and raising funds from debt and equity providers in the U.S. and globally. |

As a growth stage company, we incurred in 2025, and have historically incurred, operating losses due to significant expenses, which we expect will continue as we develop our technology and scale production ahead of eventual commercialization, revenue growth, and ultimately profitability. During the year, our share price reached a high of A$1.02 in mid-October 2025 and a low of A$0.32 in early April 2025. This stemmed from overall uncertainty in the market, particularly with respect to the U.S. Government's approach to support critical mineral companies such as NOVONIX and the possibility of China reducing or eliminating the global supply of critical minerals, which are particularly impactful to the NOVONIX share price. Given the nature of our activities and the consequential operating results, we have not proposed or paid dividends to shareholders or returned capital to them.

In this critical growth phase, where we aim to achieve important business milestones and the challenging goals we have set for ourselves, while sustaining losses and seeing our share price fluctuate, we must take care that our remuneration program accomplishes several aims:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)it must ensure the ability to attract and retain employees in an intensely competitive global industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)it must incentivize and reflect the performance of our pre-profitability business assessed mainly on technology and operating milestones, rather than conventional financial metrics;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c)it must promote the interests of shareholders, whose investment in us is often impacted by macroeconomic factors outside our control; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d)as a dual-listed Australian company, it must meet the expectations of both Australian and U.S. investors, each of whom have distinct expectations around remuneration.

The 2025 remuneration program was designed to achieve these goals. The program incentivizes management to deliver growth and results, while at the same time motivating and retaining key talent in the North American market where our operations are located. We recognize these as vital to achieving both short and long-term business objectives and enhancing shareholder value in the long term.

The following tables summarize the key financial and share price performance over the past five financial years, being factors that have been considered in both STI and LTI outcomes.

**EXECUTIVE REMUNERATION GOVERNANCE**

***Role of the Remuneration Committee***

The Board is responsible for the Company's remuneration strategy. The Remuneration Committee, comprised of a majority of independent, non-executive Directors, advises the Board on remuneration policies and practices generally, and makes specific recommendations on remuneration packages and other terms of employment for executives and non-executive Directors. Individual pay structures and outcomes are developed in consultation with external and independent remuneration consultants, and reviewed and approved by the Remuneration Committee, which then recommends them for approval to the Board.

In making recommendations to the Board, the Remuneration Committee considers, among other things, relevant market trends and practices, individual roles and responsibilities, legal and regulatory requirements, diversity (including with respect to gender), and feedback from shareholders and other stakeholders. This governance structure is aimed at ensuring that our remuneration program aligns the pay of our management team with shareholder value, within the context of our Company's unique situation as a dual-listed Australian company in a critical growth stage with a management team and operations based entirely in North America.

***Role of Management***

Although the Remuneration Committee ultimately is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations to the Board for the Company's remuneration policies and framework, the Remuneration Committee may receive input from the management team, which it reviews closely. The Remuneration Committee, at its discretion, may invite representatives of management and other employed personnel to attend committee meetings. Our executives do not participate in Remuneration Committee discussions about their own remuneration and do not have any indirect conflict in setting the remuneration of other KMPs.

***Role of Consultants***

When appropriate, the Remuneration Committee will seek advice or recommendations from external and independent expert consultants, including benchmarking studies. In 2025, the Remuneration Committee retained AON Consulting Inc. ("AON"), which advised on various remuneration-related items, including peer group development, market practices, industry trends, investor views, and market data. Advice provided by consultants during the year did not constitute a "remuneration recommendation" as defined in section 9B of the Corporations Act and was received free from any undue influence by KMPs to whom the advice related. Furthermore, our Remuneration Committee concluded that AON is "independent" pursuant to Rule 5605(d)(3) of The Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq").

***Remuneration Peer Group*** 

To understand the external market competitiveness of the compensation for our KMPs, our independent executive remuneration consultant analyzes publicly available information and compares the compensation of each KMP to data for comparable positions at companies in our peer group and provides a report to the Remuneration Committee. The Remuneration Committee reviews our peer group periodically, with input from its independent executive remuneration consultant. In creating the peer group, our independent executive remuneration consultant considers various factors, including: (i) relative size to our Company (revenue, market capitalization, and other relevant criteria); and (ii) nature of business (business focus, model, and location).

The 2025 compensation peer group consisted of 20 companies publicly traded in the United States in various industries, including electronic equipment and instruments, specialty chemicals, electrical components and equipment, automobile manufacturers, automotive retail, construction machinery and heavy transportation equipment, environmental and facilities services, and diversified metals and mining, with revenues generally less than $1 billion.

------

**OUR REMUNERATION STRATEGY**

As discussed in "Remuneration and our 2025 Performance," our remuneration strategy is informed by both U.S. and Australian pay practices, our market, industry, and growth stage, and is designed to ensure we can:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•attract and retain experienced leaders and key employees in the markets in which the Company operates in a highly specialized and competitive industry,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•link remuneration with performance to align pay outcomes with value created for the Company and its shareholders,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•reward performance that will support our long-term strategic growth, business objectives, innovation, and a strong culture, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•encourage an ownership mentality across all levels of the Company.

Our success in recruiting the high caliber executive team that we have added in 2025, confirms our success in balancing these goals.

These strategic priorities have led us to continue the following pay practices in 2025:

These strategic priorities have led us to implement the following pay practices in 2025:

*Table 6: Pay Practices*

<sup>1</sup> Fixed remuneration includes cash salary, post-employment benefits, annual leave entitlements and non-monetary benefits.

**OUR REMUNERATION MIX**

Our Remuneration Committee reviews and recommends to the Board the remuneration strategy for our KMPs annually to ensure it remains aligned to our business needs and outcomes. In our current, early stage of growth, setting quantitative target performance levels can be challenging. This is further complicated by rapidly shifting market and regulatory conditions. The majority of our target compensation is performance-based and at risk, and focused on long-term performance.

**REMUNERATION OUTCOMES FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025**

***Cash Salary/Fixed Remuneration***

The Remuneration Committee provides guidance in setting cash salaries for the Company's Executives at levels that reflect the Remuneration Committee's assessment of competitive compensation averages within our peer group for individuals with similar responsibilities at companies with similar financial, operating and industry characteristics, in similar locations. The members of the Remuneration Committee also evaluate Executive compensation using their accumulated individual

knowledge and industry experience, as well as publicly available compensation information with respect to companies within our peer group.

KMPs' cash salaries for 2025 are shown below.

|:---|:---|:---|:---|

Robert Long was Chief Financial Officer for the full financial year and also assumed the role of interim Chief Executive Officer from January 24, 2025 to May 18, 2025, with a base salary of $600,000. Effective with the appointment of M O'Kronley as CEO on May 19, 2025, R Long remained the Chief Financial Office from May 19, 2025 to December 31, 2025, with a base salary of $450,000.

***Short-term Incentives***

The purpose of our STIs is to motivate and reward our Executives for the attainment of measurable performance objectives, including annually set goals for financing, strategic, and operational performance in line with KPIs. These are criteria that management is focused on for the Company in our current growth stage. The KPIs are the same among all Executives and measure the Company's achievement during the fiscal year. While financial metrics do not currently make up the majority of KPIs, given that we remain focused on scaling the business and that certain of our long-term incentives include a revenue metric, they represented 35% of all KPIs for the 2025 STIs.

During the year for which performance is measured, each Executive receives an STI target award, which is a percentage of their salary for that year. Following the end of the year, Company performance against each KPI is measured. The level of achievement on each KPI is multiplied by the relative weight for that KPI, which then translates to a defined payout expressed as a percentage of the target STI.

For 2025, the target STI was 100% of salary for M O'Kronley (CEO) and R Long (CFO), and 75% of salary for K Heimert (CLRO) and Dwayne Johnson (COO). The table below shows the STI objectives and outcomes for the fiscal year.

The Remuneration Committee assessed the Company's performance of KPIs for the financial year ended December 31, 2025 as achieving 53% of target. This led to the following payouts for 2025, which the Company believes reflects the close link between the STI remuneration and the Company performance during the financial year.

Robert Long was Chief Financial Officer for the full financial year and also assumed the role of interim Chief Executive Officer from January 24, 2025 to May 18, 2025, with a base salary of $600,000. Effective with the appointment of M O'Kronley as CEO on May 19, 2025, R Long remained the Chief Financial Office from May 19, 2025 to December 31, 2025, with a base salary of $450,000.

***Long-term Incentives***

*Performance rights* 

Executives participate in the LTIP, composed of grants of performance rights with varying vesting conditions. The dollar value of the LTI award is converted into a fixed number of performance rights based on the market value of NOVONIX shares at the time of grant.

In 2025, 100% of our grants to all of our KMPs were performance rights vesting based on the achievement of performance criteria, as shown below. None of these awards vest solely based on time.

Vesting is measured based on the relative Total Shareholder Return (rTSR) performance relative to the entities of a select peer group of companies primarily in the diversified metals and electronic equipment industries over the Performance Period (January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2027) as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**% of FY25 Performance Rights that vest** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**TSR Ranking** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Below the 35th percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;0% of FY25 Performance Rights will vest |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;At the 35th percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;25% of FY25 Performance Rights will vest |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;At or above the 60th percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;100% of FY25 Performance Rights will vest |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Above the 35th percentile and below the 60th percentile | &nbsp;&nbsp;Pro rata vesting between 25% and 100% of FY25 Performance Rights |

---

*Table 10: Total Shareholder Return Vesting Levels*

The number of FY25 Performance Rights that will vest upon satisfaction of the TSR Measure (specified above) will be adjusted based on the Company meeting certain revenue milestones in respect of the 2027 Financial Year (assessed as at December 31, 2027), as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Multiplier** | **Revenue target (US$)** |
| 0.7x Number of FY25 Performance Rights that have vested | Up to $54,000,000 |
| 1.5x Number of FY25 Performance Rights that have vested | $108,000,000 or greater |
| Linear interpolation between 0.7x and 1.5x Number of FY25 Performance Rights | Above $54,000,000 and below $108,000,000 |

---

***Table 11: Total Revenue Milestones Vesting Adjustments***

------

Notwithstanding the Revenue Target Modifier, the total number of Performance Rights that can vest shall not exceed the number of Performance Rights representing the target opportunity.

The number of Performance Rights awarded to the executives during the 2025 financial year are set out in the table below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **KMP** | **Total Performance Rights (#)** |
| M O'Kronley | 3723971 |
| R Long | 1363398 |
| K Heimert | 489818 |
| D Johnson | 1208596 |
| R Buttar | 1136165 |
| D MacDougald | 1136165 |

---

*Table 12: Executive Performance Rights Awards*

The performance rights listed above were granted to executives on May 1, 2025, with the exception of M O'Kronley, whose performance rights were granted on June 16, 2025, K Heimert, whose performance rights were granted on September 11, 2025 and D Johnson, whose performance rights were granted on November 28, 2025. The long-term incentives were issued as performance rights under the Company's existing Performance Rights Plan. The target opportunities for all incentives were of a quantum substantially below the median of our U.S. peer group.

The Remuneration Committee believes that the performance criteria in the performance rights provide challenging but appropriate incentives to Executives given our focus on producing revenue over the coming years and our recognition of the necessary runway for achieving that goal. As discussed above, the relative TSR performance goals establish a rigorous framework for evaluating Company performance and are aimed at directly aligning the interests of our Executives with those of our shareholders. Additionally, the revenue modifier enhances our focus on top-line revenue growth, which is critical for effectively scaling and growing the business.

*Options*

No options were awarded to Executives during the 2025 financial year.

***Post-Employment and Other Benefits***

We provide certain pension and superannuation benefits to certain of our NEDs and our Executives. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the total amounts set aside or accrued by us to provide pension, retirement or similar benefits to our NEDs and Executives was $45,428.

**OTHER ASPECTS OF OUR REMUNERATION PROGRAM**

***Share Ownership Guidelines*** 

To further align the interests of our NEDs and other leadership with those of shareholders, the Company adopted share ownership guidelines in 2024. These require (1) each NED (other than those who do not receive remuneration from us, as further described below) to retain ordinary shares having a value of at least three times the annual cash retainer fee and (2) the Chief Executive Officer to retain ordinary shares having a value equal to three times his annual salary. Until reaching the required ownership level, NEDs covered by the guidelines and the Chief Executive Officer are required to retain at least 50% of the shares granted to them, net of applicable tax withholding and the payment of any exercise or purchase price (if applicable), received upon the vesting or settlement of equity awards or the exercise of share options. Each NED covered by the guidelines and the Chief Executive Officer has five years to comply with the guidelines, and options and unvested performance rights do not count toward the requirement. Where an individual's role changes and results in a change to the applicable ownership multiple (including due to a change in base fee or salary), the five (5) year period to satisfy the revised ownership requirement will recommence from the effective date of that role change.

------

The following shows compliance with the ownership guidelines as of December 31, 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| &nbsp;&nbsp;**KMP** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Share Ownership Guideline <br>(Multiple of Salary or Retainer)** | &nbsp;&nbsp;**Share Ownership as of** <br>**December 31, 2025** |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;M O'Kronley<sup>1</sup> | &nbsp;&nbsp;3x cash salary | &nbsp;&nbsp;Guidelines met |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Non-executive Directors<sup>2,3</sup> | &nbsp;&nbsp;3x cash retainer | &nbsp;&nbsp;Guidelines met |

---

*Table 13: Share Ownership Guidelines Compliance*

<sup>1</sup> M. O'Kronley joined the Company in the past two years and has not yet met the required ownership level but will retain at least 50% of the shares granted, as required.

<sup>2</sup>Does not include S Vaidyanathan, who is not permitted to receive remuneration, including any equity incentives, in his personal capacity under the terms of his employment with Phillips 66 and terms of engagement with the Company (all of whose equity grants are paid or granted directly to Phillips 66).

<sup>3</sup>Non-executive Directors who join the Company have a five (5) year period to meet the required ownership level and must retain at least 50% of their shares as required. In addition, where an individual's role changes and results in a change in base fee, the five (5) year period to satisfy the revised ownership requirement will recommence from the effective date of that role change.

***Clawback Policy***

We maintain a clawback policy as required by the rules of Nasdaq. Our clawback policy covers each of our current and former Executive officers (i.e., Executives). The policy provides that, subject to the limited exemptions provided by the Nasdaq rules, if the Company is required to restate its financial results due to material noncompliance with financial reporting requirements under the securities laws, the Remuneration Committee must reasonably promptly seek recovery of any cash or equity-based incentive compensation (including vested and unvested equity) paid or awarded to the covered individual, to the extent that the compensation (i) was based on erroneous financial data and (ii) exceeded what would have been paid to the executive officer under the restatement. Recovery applies to any such excess cash or equity-based bonus/other incentive compensation received by any covered individual, while he/she was an executive officer, on or after October 2, 2023 during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company determines an accounting statement is required. For more information, see the full text of our claw-back policy, which is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Except for those in Table 16 and their pension/superannuation benefits (which is outlined in the "Post-Employment Benefits" column of Table 4 (under the heading "EXECUTIVE REMUNERATION AT A GLANCE"), the KMPs are not entitled to any other termination payments or benefits under their service contracts.

AON, an external remuneration consultant, is engaged to benchmark Executive salaries, with those salaries positioned at the 50<sup>th</sup>percentile of the peer group. Executive salaries also are set taking into account each KMP's accountabilities, experience, and qualifications.

**NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REMUNERATION**

Non-executive Director remuneration includes both a cash component and an annual grant of equity awards using a value-based approach by issuing share rights to non-executive Directors each financial year.

With effect from January 1, 2024, the annual value of share rights granted to NEDs was temporarily reduced from $110,000 to $55,000 as a demonstration of the Board's long-term commitment to the Company and alignment with shareholder interests. This reduced grant level has been maintained for 2025 and will be extended into 2026.

At the 2025 AGM, the shareholders approved the granting of the financial year 2025 share rights to NEDs. The number of share rights granted was calculated by dividing the value of the share rights ($55,000; $110,000 for R Edmonds in lieu of an LTI for his time as Interim Executive Officer) by the closing share price of the Company's shares on the ASX on December 31, 2024, and the US$/A$ spot rate as of December 31, 2024. The share rights automatically vested on December 31, 2025.

If a NED is appointed during the financial year, the number of share rights to be issued comprises a pro-rata amount of the value of the share rights, based on the date of the NED's appointment, as a proportion of the financial year. The number of share rights is then calculated by dividing the value of the share rights by the closing share price of the Company's shares on the ASX and the US$/A$ spot rate on the trading day immediately prior to the non-executive Director's appointment.

If a NED ceases to hold office as a NED prior to the vesting date, that person's share rights will lapse, and they will be entitled to a pro-rata amount of shares representing the proportion of the relevant financial year that such person was a non-executive Director.

S. Vaidyanathan is not permitted to receive remuneration, including any equity incentives, in his personal capacity under the terms of their employment with Phillips 66 and terms of engagement with the Company. Accordingly, all fees earned by, and all equity instruments granted to, S. Vaidyanathan are paid or granted directly to Phillips 66.

*Table 18: NED Cash Fees* 

The current base fees were reviewed with effect from July 1, 2025.

The maximum annual aggregate non-executive Directors' fee pool limit is $700,000 (excluding share-based payments) and was approved by shareholders at the 2023 AGM.

Any NED who devotes special attention to the business of the Company, or who otherwise performs services which in the opinion of the NEDs are outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a NED may be paid extra remuneration as determined by the NEDs, which will not form part of the aggregate fee pool limit above. Non-executive Directors are not entitled to any performance-related remuneration or retirement allowances outside of statutory superannuation entitlements.

------

All non-executive Directors enter into a service agreement with the Company in the form of a letter of appointment. The letter summarizes the Board policies and terms, including remuneration relevant to the office of a NED.

*Table 20: Options*

~ As part of Chris Burns termination arrangements he was to retain these options until December 31, 2026. These options vest in 10 equal tranches upon the achievement of progressive incremental production milestones of 1,000 tonnes. The vesting dates in the table represent the current estimate of when the vesting conditions will be met, and the options can be exercised. The vesting conditions are not expected to be satisfied prior to December 31, 2026 and therefore the cumulative expense previously recognized has been reversed.

The Company granted no options over ordinary shares as remuneration to key management personnel in 2025. Options on issue carry no dividend or voting rights. When exercisable, each option is convertible into one ordinary share of NOVONIX Limited.

*Table 21: Executive Performance Rights Terms and Conditions*

<sup>1</sup> Performance rights retained by former employees in accordance with their termination arrangements.

The number of performance rights over ordinary shares in the Company provided as remuneration to Executives is shown in Table 24. Performance rights carry no dividend or voting rights. Rights granted are dependent on the recipient's continued service, or achievement of performance related vesting conditions, by the vesting date.

Upon vesting, each performance right is convertible into one ordinary share of NOVONIX Limited. If an Executive ceases employment before the rights vest, the rights will be forfeited, except in limited circumstances that they are approved by the Board on a case-by-case basis.

*Table 22: Non-executive Director Share Rights Terms and Conditions*

The number of share rights over ordinary shares in the Company provided as remuneration to NEDs is shown in Table 25. Share rights carry no dividend or voting rights.

These share rights vest in full in one installment based solely on service to us through the vesting date and do not have any performance related vesting conditions.

Upon vesting, each share right is convertible into one ordinary share of NOVONIX Limited. If a NED ceases to hold office before the share rights vest, the rights will vest on a pro rata basis representing the proportion of the relevant financial year that such a person served as a NED. For example, if a NED who is issued share rights ceases to hold office halfway through the financial year, then that NED will only be entitled to half of the shares initially awarded.

**C.** **Board Practices**

**Board of Directors**

Our Board of Directors currently consists of seven members. Under our Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules, we must hold an election of directors each year at our annual general meeting of shareholders. A director (other than our managing director) must not hold office (without re-election) past the third annual general meeting following the director's appointment or three years, whichever is longer. If there would otherwise not be a vacancy on the board, and no director is required to retire, then the director who has been longest in office since last being elected must retire. The retirement of a director from office under the Constitution and the re-election of a director or the election of another person to that office (as the case may be) takes effect at the conclusion of the meeting at which the retirement and re-election or election occurs.

The membership of our Board of Directors is directed by the following recommendations and requirements as set forth in the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules and Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, our Constitution, and our Corporate Governance Charter, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act do not require that a majority of our directors be independent, although it is recommended by recommendation 2.4 of the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, which differs from the independence standards under Nasdaq corporate governance listing standards. Our Board has determined that four of our seven directors are independent under the ASX Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•there must be a minimum of three directors, half of our directors should be non-executive directors, and, unless shareholders in a general meeting resolve otherwise, there will be a maximum of 12 directors. The appointment of an alternate director does not count towards the total number of directors. Within those limits, our Board of Directors may determine the number of directors to serve on our board at any one time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our Board of Directors has the power to appoint any person to be a director, either to fill a vacancy or as an additional director (provided that the total number of directors does not exceed the maximum number of directors permitted), and any director so appointed will hold office until the end of the next annual general meeting when he or she must seek re-election by way of ordinary resolution;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a director may, with the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors, appoint a person to be that director's alternate director for any period that director decides, whom in the appointing director's absence may exercise any power that the appointing director may exercise and attend and vote in place of or on behalf of the appointing director, and will hold office until the office of the appointing director is vacated or the alternate director's appointment is terminated or suspended by a majority of the Board of Directors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•our Board of Directors should, collectively, have a broad range of experience, expertise, skills, and contacts relevant to the Company and its business.

Our Board of Directors has delegated responsibility for the strategic and operational management of our businesses to the Chief Executive Officer but remains responsible for overseeing the performance of management. The principal roles and responsibilities of our Board of Directors include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•providing leadership and setting the strategic objectives of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•determining the Board's composition, including appointment and retirement or removal of the Chairman and Deputy Chairman (if applicable);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•overseeing the Company, including its control and accountability systems;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•appointing and removing the Chief Executive Officer or equivalent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•where appropriate, ratifying the appointment and the removal of senior executives of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•reviewing, ratifying, and monitoring the risk management framework and setting the risk appetite within which the Board expects management to operate;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•approving and formulating company strategy and policy, monitoring senior executives' implementation of strategy;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•approving and monitoring operating budgets and major capital expenditures;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•overseeing the integrity of the Company's accounting and corporate reporting systems, including the external audit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•monitoring industry developments relevant to the Company and its business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•developing suitable key indicators of financial performance for the Company and its business;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•overseeing the Company's corporate strategy and performance objectives developed by management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•overseeing the Company's compliance with its continuous disclosure obligations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•approving the Company's remuneration framework;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•monitoring the overall corporate governance of the Company (including its strategic direction and goals for management, and the achievement of these goals); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•overseeing committees of the Board of Directors.

Our Board of Directors has established delegated limits of authority, which define the matters that are delegated to management and those that require the Board of Directors' approval. Under the Corporations Act, at least one of our directors must be a resident Australian. None of our non-executive directors have any service contracts with us that provide for benefits upon termination of employment. Under our Corporate Governance Charter, the Board of Directors is required to meet at least six times per year.

**Board Committees**

To assist with the effective discharge of its duties, the Board of Directors has established an Audit and Risk Management Committee, a Remuneration Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee .Each of these committees operates under a charter approved by our Board of Directors, which sets forth the purposes and responsibilities of the committee as well as qualifications for committee membership, committee structure and operations and committee reporting to the Board of Directors.

They are, however, subject to the obligations to report changes in share ownership under Section 13 of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules, to the extent applicable.

The foreign private issuer exemption also permits us to follow home country corporate governance practices or requirements instead of certain Nasdaq listing requirements, including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We rely on an exemption from the requirement that our independent directors meet regularly in executive sessions under Nasdaq listing rules. The ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act do not require the independent directors of an Australian company to have such executive sessions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We rely on an exemption from the quorum requirements applicable to meetings of shareholders under Nasdaq listing rules. In compliance with Australian law, our Constitution provides that two shareholders present, in person or by proxy, attorney or a representative, shall constitute a quorum for a general meeting. Nasdaq listing rules require that an issuer provide for a quorum as specified in its by-laws for any meeting of the holders of ordinary shares, which quorum may not be less than 33 1/3% of the outstanding voting ordinary shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•We follow applicable Australian law and the ASX Listing Rules regarding prior shareholder approval in lieu of the requirement prescribed by Nasdaq listing rules that issuers obtain shareholder approval prior to the issuance of securities in connection with certain acquisitions, private placements of securities, or the establishment or amendment of certain stock option, purchase, or other compensation plans. Applicable Australian law and the ASX Listing Rules differ from Nasdaq requirements, with the ASX Listing Rules requiring prior shareholder approval for issuance of equity securities in a number of circumstances, including (i) issuance of equity securities exceeding 15% of our issued share capital in any 12-month period (but, in determining the 15% limit, securities issued under certain exceptions to the rule or with shareholder approval are not counted), (ii) subject to certain exceptions, issuance of equity to related parties (as defined in the ASX Listing Rules) and (iii) issuances of securities to directors or their associates under an employee incentive plan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act do not require the establishment of a Remuneration Committee or a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and, if established, do not require all members to be independent directors. However, under Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, all members of our Audit and Risk Management Committee are required to be independent pursuant to the standards set forth in such rule, and we currently comply with this requirement.

Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act provides that the Audit and Risk Management Committee must have direct responsibility for the nomination, compensation, and choice of our auditors, as well as control over the performance of their duties, management of complaints made, and selection of consultants. Under Rule 10A-3, if the laws of a foreign private issuer's home country require that any such matter be approved by the Board of Directors or the shareholders of the Company, the Audit and Risk Management Committee's responsibilities or powers with respect to such matter may instead be advisory.

We intend to take all actions necessary for us to maintain compliance as a foreign private issuer under the applicable corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the rules adopted by the SEC and the listing rules of Nasdaq.

Applicable percentage ownership is based on 840,073,798 ordinary shares outstanding as of December 31, 2025.

However, except as described above, we did not deem such shares outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or entity. The information contained in the following table is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose, and the inclusion of any shares in the table does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership of those shares. Each of our shareholders is entitled to one vote per ordinary share. None of the holders of our ordinary shares have different voting rights from other holders of ordinary shares. We are not aware of any arrangement that may, at a subsequent date, result in a change of control of our company. For further information regarding options to purchase

The Company maintains two plans to provide equity awards to its directors, executives, employees and consultants, the Performance Rights Plan and the Executive Options Plan (the "Plans"). The Performance Rights Plan provides for issuance of performance rights to eligible participants designated by the Board, which entitle the grantee to an ordinary share (or the cash value) upon satisfaction of specified vesting conditions. Unvested performance rights generally lapse upon a termination of employment, other than due to redundancy, death or disability.

The Executive Options Plan provides for the issuance of stock options to eligible participants (other than directors) designated by the Board, which entitle the grantee to receive ordinary shares upon exercise once any vesting conditions have been satisfied. Options generally lapse upon a termination of employment, unless otherwise determined by the Board.

------

Performance rights (or a prorated portion, if determined by the Board) and stock options vest upon a change in control, unless otherwise determined by the Board, with treatment of the vested award determined by the Board in accordance with the applicable Plan.

Each of the Plans is administered by the Board. Performance rights and options have no voting rights, do not provide the right to dividends and cannot be transferred without the Board's approval.

**Director and Senior Management Compensation**

See *Item 6.Directors, Senior Management and Employees — B. Compensation* for information regarding compensation of our senior management and directors.

**Indemnification Agreements**

Our Constitution provides that, to the full extent permitted by law, to the extent that an offer is not otherwise indemnified pursuant to any insurance coverage, we will indemnify every person who is or has been an officer of the company against any liability incurred by that person as an officer. This includes any liability incurred by that person in their capacity as an officer of a related body corporate.

We intend to enter into Deeds of Indemnity, Insurance and Access, or Indemnity Deeds with each a non-executive director and executive officer. Under the Indemnity Deeds, we will agree to indemnify (to the maximum extent permitted under Australian law and our Constitution, subject to certain specified exceptions) each director and executive officer against all liabilities incurred in any capacity, including acting as an authorized representative of NOVONIX, and any and all costs and expenses relating to such a claim or to any notified event incurred by such director or executive officer, including costs and expenses reasonably and necessarily incurred to mitigate any liability for such a claim or any claim which may arise from such a notified event. The Indemnity Deeds will provide that the indemnities are unlimited as to amount, continuous and irrevocable.

Separately, we intend to obtain insurance for our directors and executive officers, as will be required by the Indemnity Deeds.

As far as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Under Australia's securities laws and ASX rules, transactions with directors or significant shareholders of the Company (or their associates) may require shareholder approval depending on the size or nature of the transaction.

All of the transactions described above were entered into prior to the adoption of the written policy, but our Board of Directors and, where necessary, our shareholders, evaluated and approved all transactions that were considered to be related party transactions under Australian law and the rules and regulations of the ASX at the time at which they were consummated.

**Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement with City of Chattanooga and Hamilton County, Tennessee** 

On April 28, 2025, pursuant to the Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement with City of Chattanooga and Hamilton County, Tennessee, NOVONIX agreed to purchase a 182-acre parcel in the Enterprise South Industrial Park in Chattanooga, Tennessee for approximately $5.0 million. The Company does not intend to close on the purchase of the Enterprise South land until such time as certain conditions precedent related to the conditionally committed $754.0 million loan ($692.0 million in principal and $62.8 million in capitalized interest) from the Office of Energy Dominance Financing ("EDF") of the U.S. Department of Energy have been satisfied.

**Funding Agreement with YA II PN, Ltd** 

On July 24, 2025, the Company entered into a multi-tranche Funding Agreement with YA II PN, Ltd, an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors Global, LP ("Yorkville"), under which Yorkville committed up to $100.0 million (of which $40.0 million required mutual consent) in exchange for the issuance of unsecured convertible debentures. In July 2025, NOVONIX completed the first drawdown of $24.5 million ($23.3 million cash received, net of a 5% discount). In September and October 2025, draws of $23.5 million ($20.3 million cash received, net of 5% discount) and $12.0 million ($11.4 million cash received, net of 5% discount), respectively, were completed. In October 2025, the parties mutually agreed to draw the remaining $40.0 million tranche ($38.0 million cash received, net of 5% discount), approved by shareholders at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 8, 2025. With the completion of all tranches, the entire $100.0 million funding commitment under the debenture transaction has now been fulfilled. Debentures issued to Yorkville under the Funding Agreement are convertible into fully paid ordinary shares of the Company at a 5% discount price to the aggregate face value of the convertible debentures (being $100.0 million). Yorkville may elect to convert any part or all of the face value of the convertible debentures at any time until (but excluding) the third trading day prior to the relative maturity date. During the financial year, $60.0 million of the convertible debentures were converted, resulting in the issue of 201,753,472 ordinary shares.

------

**D.** **Exchange Controls**

Australia has largely abolished exchange controls on investment transactions. The Australian dollar is freely convertible into U.S. dollars or other currencies. In addition, there are currently no specific rules or limitations regarding the export from Australia of profits, dividends, capital or similar funds belonging to foreign investors, except that certain payments to non-residents must be reported to the Australian Cash Transaction Reports Agency, which monitors such transaction, and amounts on account of potential Australian tax liabilities may be required to be withheld unless a relevant taxation treaty can be shown to apply and under such there are either exemptions or limitations on the level of tax to be withheld.

**E.** **Taxation**

*The following summary of material U.S. federal income tax and Australian tax considerations of an investment in the ADSs is based upon the federal income tax laws of the United States and regulations promulgated thereunder and the tax laws of Australia and the regulations promulgated thereunder, each as in effect as of the date of this annual report, all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retrospective effect. This summary does not deal with all possible tax consequences relating to an investment in the ADSs, including tax consequences under U.S. state or local tax laws, U.S. federal tax laws other than U.S. federal income tax laws, certain Australian tax laws, and the tax laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States and Australia.*

**U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations**

The following describes material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the ADSs, and the ownership and disposition of any ordinary shares received in exchange for such ADSs from the depositary. This summary addresses these tax considerations only for U.S. holders (as defined below) that hold ADSs, and any ordinary shares received in exchange for such ADSs from the depositary, as capital assets (generally, property held for investment).

This summary is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), existing, proposed and temporary U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, in each case, as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change and to differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change or differing interpretations could affect the tax considerations described below. There can be no assurances that the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") will not take a position that differs from those described below or that such a position would not be sustained by a court. We have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling with respect to the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the purchase, ownership, or disposition of the ADSs or ordinary shares. Accordingly, U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of acquiring, owning, and disposing of the ADSs or ordinary shares in their particular circumstances.

This summary does not address any U.S. federal tax considerations other than U.S. federal income tax considerations (such as estate or gift tax considerations, the Medicare contribution tax imposed on certain net investment income, or any state, local, or non-U.S. tax considerations).

------

This summary does not address all U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to a U.S. holder based on its particular circumstances. This summary also does not address U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to a U.S. holder that may be subject to special tax rules including the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•banks, financial institutions, or insurance companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•brokers, dealers, or traders in securities, currencies, commodities, or notional principal contracts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•tax-exempt entities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•individual retirement accounts and other tax-deferred accounts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•real estate investment trusts or regulated investment companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•persons that hold the ADSs or our ordinary shares as part of a "hedging," "integrated," "wash sale" or "conversion" transaction or as a position in a "straddle" for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•S corporations, partnerships, or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes and investors in such entities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•persons that received the ADSs as compensation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•persons required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income as a result of any item of gross income with respect to the ADSs or our ordinary shares being taken into account in an applicable financial statement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•persons acquiring the ADSs in connection with a trade or business conducted outside of the United States, including a permanent establishment or a fixed base in Australia;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•holders that own directly, indirectly, or constructively, 10% or more of the voting power or value of our equity interests; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•holders that have a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar.

Persons who hold the ADSs and fall within one of the categories above are advised to consult their tax advisor regarding the specific U.S. federal income tax consequences which may apply to their particular situation.

For the purposes of this description, a "U.S. holder" is a beneficial owner of the ADSs or our ordinary shares that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a corporation created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•a trust, if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of such trust, or if such trust has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

If an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds the ADSs or our ordinary shares, the U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to an investment in the ADSs, and our ordinary shares will depend in part upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such a partner or partnership should consult its tax advisor regarding the specific U.S. federal income tax considerations of acquiring, owning, and disposing of the ADSs or our ordinary shares in its particular circumstances.

------

**U.S holders of the ADSs should consult their tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences applicable to them relating to the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares, including the applicability of U.S. federal, state and local tax laws, Australian tax laws and other non-U.S. tax laws.**

***ADSs.*** In general, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a U.S. holder holding ADSs will be treated as the owner of the ordinary shares represented by the ADSs. Accordingly, exchanges with the depositary of ADSs for ordinary shares, and of ordinary shares for ADSs, generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

***Distributions.*** As described under the heading "Dividend Policy," we do not expect to make any distributions in respect of the ADSs or our ordinary shares. Subject to the discussion under "—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations," below, the gross amount of any distribution (including any amounts withheld in respect of Australian tax or in respect of fees payable to the depositary) actually or constructively received by a U.S. holder with respect to the ADSs or our ordinary shares generally will be taxable to the U.S. holder as a dividend to the extent of the U.S. holder's pro rata share of our current or accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Generally, distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in the ADSs or our ordinary shares, and thereafter as capital gain from the disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares. However, since we do not intend to calculate our earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, it is expected, and U.S. holders should assume, that any distribution will be reported as a dividend and will constitute ordinary dividend income to a U.S. holder. Any dividends will generally be treated as foreign source and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to corporate U.S. holders.

Subject to the discussion under "—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations," below, dividends paid to non-corporate U.S. holders may qualify as "qualified dividend income" eligible for the preferential rates of taxation applicable to long-term capital gains if we are a "qualified foreign corporation" and certain other requirements (discussed below) are met. We generally will be considered to be a qualified foreign corporation (a) if we are eligible for the benefits of the Convention between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of Australia for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with Respect to Taxes on Income, signed on August 6, 1982, as amended and currently in force (the "U.S.-Australia Tax Treaty"), or (b) the ADSs or our ordinary shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. The ADSs are currently listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, which is an established securities market in the United States, although there can be no assurance that the ADSs will remain listed on Nasdaq or be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States now or in the future. In addition, we believe that we qualify as a resident of Australia for purposes of, and are eligible for the benefits of, the U.S.-Australia Tax Treaty, although there can be no assurance in this regard. Therefore, subject to the discussion under "—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations," below, any dividends on the ADSs or our ordinary shares generally will be "qualified dividend income" in the hands of individual U.S. holders, provided that a holding period requirement (more than 60 days of ownership, without protection from the risk of loss, during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date) and certain other requirements are met.

A U.S. holder may be able to claim as a credit against its U.S. federal income tax liability the amount of any Australian tax withheld from any dividends at a rate not exceeding an applicable rate under the U.S.-Australia Tax Treaty. Alternatively, a U.S. holder may deduct such Australian taxes from its U.S. federal taxable income, provided that the U.S. holder elects to deduct rather than credit all foreign income taxes paid or accrued for the relevant taxable year. The rules governing U.S. foreign tax credits are complex. Each U.S. holder should consult its tax advisors regarding the foreign tax credit rules.

In general, the amount of any distribution paid to a U.S. holder in a foreign currency will be the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency calculated by reference to the spot exchange rate on the day the depositary receives the distribution (in the case of ADSs) or on the day the distribution is received by the U.S. holder (in the case of ordinary shares), regardless of whether the foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time. If distributions received in a foreign currency are converted into U.S. dollars on the day they are received, a U.S. holder should not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the distribution. A U.S. holder that does not convert foreign currency received as a distribution on an ordinary share into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt generally will have a tax basis in such foreign

------

currency equal to the U.S. dollar value of such foreign currency on the date of receipt. Any foreign currency gain or loss a U.S. holder recognizes on a subsequent conversion of foreign currency into U.S. dollars will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss.

As discussed below under *"Item 12. Description of Securities Other Than Equity Securities – American Depositary Shares– Fees and Expenses,"* the amount of any distribution that is paid to a U.S. holder will be reduced by certain fees that such U.S holder is required to pay to the depositary. The amount of any dividend a U.S. holder is deemed to receive and include in income for U.S. federal income tax purposes will not be reduced by the amount of any fees that are withheld, and a U.S. holder would be deemed to pay the amount of such fees to the depositary. Any such fees generally will be treated as items of investment expense which may not be deductible in the case of certain investors due to general limitations on the deductibility of investment expenses. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisor with respect to the tax treatment of the payment of any such fees to the depositary.

***Sale or Other Taxable Disposition.*** A U.S. holder generally will recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the sale or other taxable disposition of the ADSs or the ordinary shares in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized from such disposition and the U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in those ADSs or ordinary shares, determined in U.S. dollars. Subject to the discussion under "—Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations" below, any such gain or loss generally will be a capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder's holding period for such ADSs or ordinary shares is more than one year at the time of such disposition. A U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in the ADSs or our ordinary shares generally will be equal to the cost of such ADSs or ordinary shares. Any long-term capital gain from the disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares by a non-corporate U.S. holder generally is eligible for a preferential rate of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses for U.S. federal income tax purposes is subject to limitations. Any such gain or loss that a U.S. holder recognizes generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

For a cash basis taxpayer, any units of foreign currency received on a disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares that are treated as traded on an established securities market are translated into U.S. dollars at the spot exchange rate on the settlement date of the disposition. No foreign currency exchange gain or loss will result for a cash basis taxpayer from currency fluctuations between the trade date and the settlement date of such a disposition.

An accrual basis taxpayer may elect the same treatment required of cash basis taxpayers with respect to dispositions of the ADSs or our ordinary shares that are traded on an established securities market, provided the election is applied consistently from year to year. Such an election may not be changed without the consent of the IRS. For an accrual basis taxpayer who does not make such election or if the ADSs or our ordinary shares that are not treated as traded on an established securities market, any units of foreign currency received on a disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares are translated into U.S. dollars at the spot exchange rate on the trade date of the disposition. In such case, the taxpayer may recognize exchange gain or loss based on currency fluctuations between the trade date and the settlement date. Any foreign currency gain or loss a U.S. holder recognizes will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss.

***Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations*.** Generally, we will be a "passive foreign investment company" ("PFIC") for U.S. federal income tax purposes for any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules with respect to the income and assets of our subsidiaries, either: (1) at least 75% of our gross income is "passive income" or (2) at least 50% of the average quarterly value of our total gross assets (which would generally be measured by fair market value of our assets) is attributable to assets that produce "passive income" or are held for the production of "passive income." For purposes of these calculations, we will be treated as holding our proportionate share of the assets of and receiving directly our proportionate share of the income of, any corporation in which we directly or indirectly own at least 25% (by value) of the shares. Passive income for this purpose includes dividends, interest, royalties, rents, gains from commodities and securities transactions and the excess of gains over losses from the disposition of assets which produce passive income.

------

Based on our current and anticipated operations and composition of our assets and income, we believe that we were not a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes for our tax year ended December 31, 2024. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any subsequent year The determination of PFIC status is a factual determination that must be made annually and cannot be made until the close of a taxable year. In particular, our PFIC status may be determined in large part based on the market price of the ADSs and our ordinary shares. The market price of the ADSs and our ordinary shares may fluctuate, and a significant decrease in the market price could cause us to be treated as a PFIC. Moreover, the determination of PFIC status depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules which are subject to differing interpretations. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we would not be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable year.

If we are a PFIC, a U.S. holder will be subject to a special tax at ordinary income tax rates on "excess distributions," including certain distributions by us and any gain that the U.S. holder recognizes on the sale or other disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares. Distributions received by a U.S. holder (other than distributions in the first year that a U.S. holder holds the ADSs or ordinary shares) in a taxable year that exceed 125% of the average annual distributions received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or the portion of the U.S. holder's holding period for the ADSs or ordinary shares that precedes the taxable year of the distribution will be treated as an excess distribution. The amount of U.S. federal income tax on any excess distributions will be increased by an interest charge to compensate for the tax deferral, calculated as if the excess distributions were earned ratably over the period that the U.S. holder has held the ADSs or ordinary shares. Dividends received with respect to the ADSs, or our ordinary shares will not be eligible for the preferential tax rate applicable to "qualified dividend income" received by non-corporate U.S. holders if we are a PFIC for the taxable year of the distribution or for the preceding taxable year. Classification as a PFIC may also have other adverse tax consequences. A U.S. holder may be able to mitigate certain of these adverse tax consequences if it is able to make a timely qualified electing fund election (a "QEF election") or a mark to market election with respect to the ADSs. However, a QEF election may only be made by a U.S. holder if we provide such holder with certain information, and we do not expect to provide U.S. holders with the information necessary to make a QEF election in the event we were to be a PFIC.

If we are a PFIC in any year in which a U.S. holder owns the ADSs or our ordinary shares, we would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. holder in all succeeding years during which the U.S. holder owns the ADSs or ordinary shares, regardless of whether we continue to meet the tests described above, unless we cease to be a PFIC and the U.S. holder has made certain elections under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations with respect to its ADSs or ordinary shares.

If a U.S. holder owns the ADSs or our ordinary shares during any taxable year in which we are a PFIC, the U.S. holder generally will be required to file an IRS Form 8621 (Information Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund) with respect to the Company, generally with the U.S. holder's U.S. federal income tax return for that year. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisor regarding any annual filing requirements.

**The U.S. federal income tax rules relating to PFICs are complex. Prospective U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors with respect to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares, the consequences to them of an investment in a PFIC, any elections available with respect to the ADSs or ordinary shares (including QEF elections and mark-to-market elections) and the IRS information reporting obligations with respect to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the ADSs and ordinary shares.**

***Backup Withholding and Information Reporting.*** U.S. holders generally will be subject to information reporting requirements with respect to dividends paid on the ADSs or our ordinary shares, and on the proceeds from the sale, exchange or other disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares that are paid within the United States or through U.S.-related financial intermediaries, unless the U.S. holder is an "exempt recipient." In addition, U.S. holders may be subject to backup withholding on such payments, unless the U.S. holder provides a correct taxpayer identification number and a duly executed IRS Form W-9 or otherwise establishes an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax, and the amount of any backup withholding will be allowed as a credit against a U.S. holder's U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle such holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

------

***Foreign Asset Reporting.*** Certain U.S. holders who are individuals are required to report information relating to an interest in the ADSs and our ordinary shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for ADSs and ordinary shares held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions) by fling IRS Form 8938 (*Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets*) with their U.S. federal income tax return. Substantial penalties may be imposed upon a U.S. holder that fails to comply. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their information reporting obligations, if any, with respect to their ownership and disposition of the ADSs or our ordinary shares.

**THE DISCUSSION ABOVE IS A SUMMARY OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE ADSs AND IS BASED UPON LAWS AND RELEVANT INTERPRETATIONS THEREOF IN EFFECT AS OF THE DATE OF THIS ANNUAL REPORT, ALL OF WHICH ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE OR DIFFERING INTERPRETATION, POSSIBLY WITH RETROACTIVE EFFECT. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR SHOULD CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISOR ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO IT OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE ADSs IN LIGHT OF THE INVESTOR'S OWN CIRCUMSTANCES.**

**Australian Tax Considerations**

In this section, we discuss material Australian income tax, landholder duty and goods and services tax considerations related to the acquisition, ownership, and disposal by the absolute beneficial owners of the ADSs or ordinary shares represented by ADSs. It is based upon existing Australian tax law and administrative practice as of the date of this annual report, which is subject to change, possibly retrospectively. This discussion does not address all aspects of Australian tax law which may be important to particular investors in light of their individual investment circumstances, such as ADSs or shares held by investors subject to special tax rules (for example, authorized deposit-taking institutions, insurance companies or tax-exempt organizations). In addition, this summary does not discuss any non-Australian or state tax considerations, other than landholder duty.

Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the Australian and non-Australian income and other tax considerations of the acquisition, ownership, and disposal of the ADSs or shares, including before the deposit of shares with the depositary in exchange for ADSs. This summary is based upon the premise and assumption that the holder of an ADS is not an Australian tax resident and is not carrying on business in Australia through a permanent establishment or similar taxable nexus (referred to as a "Non-Australian Holder" in this summary).

***Nature of ADSs for Australian Taxation Purposes***

Prospective investors and non-Australian holders of ADSs should obtain specialist Australian tax advice regarding their rights and obligations under the deposit agreement with the depositary, including whether the deposit arrangement would result in the holders of an ADS being "absolutely entitled" to the underlying shares represented by the ADS for Australian taxation purposes, especially before the prospective investor or Non-Australian Holder takes any Acton either to: (1) deposit ordinary shares to the depositary in exchange for ADSs; or (2) surrender ADSs to the depositary for cancellation to receive the ordinary shares underlying the Non-Australian Holder's ADSs. Apart from certain aspects of the Australian tax legislation (for example, the Australian capital gains tax and withholding tax provisions, which are discussed below), there is no express legislative basis for disregarding "bare trusts" or similar arrangements for Australian tax purposes generally, and the Australian Taxation Office has not published any binding guidance in respect of ADS arrangements.

Consistent with our understanding that the deposit agreement, which is proposed for the holders of ADSs, is on similar terms to agreements that govern ADSs in respect of other foreign private issuers, this summary proceeds on the assumption that the deposit arrangement results in holders of ADSs being "absolutely entitled" to the underlying shares and also "presently entitled" to any dividend paid on the underlying ordinary shares. On this basis, holders of ADSs can be treated as the owners of the underlying ordinary shares for Australian capital gains tax purposes and dividends paid on the underlying ordinary shares will also be treated as dividends derived by the holders of ADSs as the persons presently entitled to those dividends.

------

The Australian tax implications of depositing shares with the depositary in exchange for ADSs will depend on the individual circumstances of the investor. For investors who hold such shares on capital account, on the basis of the assumption regarding absolute entitlement the deposit of such shares with the depositary should not be subject to Australian capital gains tax.

***Taxation of Dividends***

Australia operates a dividend imputation system under which dividends may be declared to be "franked" to the extent they are paid out of company profits that have been subject to income tax. Fully franked dividends are not subject to dividend withholding tax. To the extent that dividends are unfranked, or partly franked, the unfranked amount of dividends payable to Non-Australian Holders will be subject to dividend withholding tax except to the extent they are declared to be "conduit foreign income," or CFI. Dividend withholding tax will be imposed at 30%, unless a shareholder or other specified recipient is a resident of a country with which Australia has a double taxation treaty and qualifies for the benefits of the treaty. For example, under the provisions of the current Double Taxation Convention between Australia and the United States, the Australian tax withheld on unfranked dividends that are not declared to be CFI paid by us to which a resident of the United States is beneficially entitled generally is limited to 15%.

However, under the Double Taxation Convention between Australia and the United States, if a U.S. resident company that is a Non-Australian Holder directly owns a 10% or more voting interests in NOVONIX, the Australian tax withheld on unfranked dividends that are not declared to be CFI paid by us to which the company is beneficially entitled is generally limited to 5%.

***Character of ADSs or Shares for Australian Taxation Purposes***

The Australian income tax treatment of a sale or disposal of the ADSs or underlying shares will depend on whether they are held on revenue or capital account. ADSs may be held on revenue rather than capital accounts, for example, where they are held by share traders, or any profit arises from a profit-making undertaking or scheme entered into by the holder. Non-Australian Holders of ADSs should obtain specialist Australian tax advice regarding the characterization of any gain or loss on a sale or disposal of the ADSs or underlying shares as revenue or capital in nature.

Regarding the landholder duty considerations for the sale/disposal of the ADSs or underlying shares, please refer to the below comments under "Landholder Duty".

Regarding the goods and services tax considerations for the sale/disposal of the ADSs or underlying shares, please refer to the below comments under "Goods and Services Tax".

***Tax on Sales or other Dispositions of Shares or ADSs—Capital Gains Tax***

Non-Australian Holders who are treated as the owners of the underlying shares on the basis that they are absolutely entitled to those shares will not be subject to Australian capital gains tax on the gain made on a sale or other disposal of ordinary shares, provided the shares are not "taxable Australian property." Taxable Australian property includes "indirect Australian real property interests," which are interests in a company where:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•that Non-Australian Holder, together with its associates (as defined in the relevant Australian tax legislation), holds 10% or more of that company's issued shares, at the time of disposal or for a 12-month period during the two years prior to disposal; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•more than 50% of that company's assets held directly or indirectly, determined by reference to market value, consists of Australian real property (which includes land and leasehold interests) or Australian mining, quarrying or prospecting rights at the time of disposal.

Australian capital gains tax applies to net capital gains at a taxpayer's marginal tax rates. Net capital gains are calculated after reduction for capital losses, which may only be offset against capital gains.

------

If a Non-Australian Holder of ADSs was not absolutely entitled to the underlying shares, and the ADSs were held on capital account, the same principles would apply in determining whether a gain on the sale or disposal of the ADSs would be subject to Australian capital gains tax. That is, a Non-Australian Holder should not be directly subject to Australian capital gains tax on the sale or disposal of the ADSs provided the ADSs are not "taxable Australian property."

The 50% capital gains tax discount is not available to Non-Australian Holders on gains from assets where they were non-Australian tax residents during the entire holding period. An apportioned discount rate may be available where the holder has been both a Non-Australian Holder and an Australian Tax Resident throughout the holding period. Companies are not entitled to a capital gains tax discount.

Broadly, where there is a disposal of "taxable Australian property," which includes indirect Australian real property interests, the purchaser will be required to withhold and remit to the Australian Taxation Office, or the ATO, 12.5% of the proceeds from the sale. A transaction is excluded from the withholding requirements in certain circumstances, including where the transaction has a market value of $750,000 or less, or is an on-market transaction conducted on an approved stock exchange, a securities lending arrangement, or is conducted using a broker operated crossing system. There may also be an exception to the requirement to withhold where a Non-Australian Holder provides a declaration that their ordinary shares are not "indirect Australian real property interests."

***Tax on Sales or other Dispositions of ADSs—Revenue Account***

Non-Australian Holders who hold their ADSs on revenue account may have the gains made on the sale or other disposal of the ADSs included in their assessable income under the ordinary income provisions of the income tax law if the gains are sourced in Australia. In the case of gains which are ordinary income, there are no express provisions which treat holders of ADSs as the owners of the underlying shares where they are absolutely entitled to those shares.

Non-Australian Holders assessable under these ordinary income provisions in respect of gains made on ADSs held on revenue account would be assessed for such gains at the Australian tax rates for non-Australian residents, which start at a marginal rate of 32.5% for individuals and would be required to file an Australian tax return. Some relief from Australian income tax may be available to a Non-Australian Holder who is resident of a country with which Australia has a double taxation treaty, qualifies for the benefits of the treaty and does not, for example, derive the gain in carrying on business through a permanent establishment (or similar taxable nexus) in Australia.

To the extent an amount would be included in a Non-Australian Holder's assessable income under both the capital gains tax provisions and the ordinary income provisions, the capital gain amount may be reduced, so that the holder may not be subject to double Australian tax on any part of the gain.

The statements under "—Tax on Sales or Other Dispositions of Shares—Capital Gains Tax" regarding a purchaser being required to withhold 12.5% tax on the acquisition of certain taxable Australian property are also relevant where the disposal of the ADSs by a Non-Australian Holder is likely to generate gains on revenue account, rather than a capital gain.

***Dual Residency***

If a holder of ADSs is a resident of both Australia and another jurisdiction (such as the United States) under those countries' domestic taxation laws, that holder may be subject to tax as an Australian resident. If, however, the holder is determined to be a resident of that other jurisdiction for the purposes of the applicable double tax treaty, for example the Double Taxation Convention between the United States and Australia and qualifies for the benefit of that treaty, the Australian tax may be subject to limitation by that double tax treaty. Holders should obtain specialist taxation advice in these circumstances.

------

***Landholder Duty***

We understand the only landholdings in Australia are located in Queensland. Generally landholdings includes resource authorities, leases over land and things fixed to the land. Where the market value of all landholdings in Queensland in NOVONIX Limited and its subsidiaries are A$2.0 million or greater NOVONIX Limited will be a landholder in Queensland.

A liability to duty should not arise in Queensland for an investor on a transfer or issue of ordinary shares or ADSs in NOVONIX Limited, provided that a single Investor (alone or together with any associates or under related transactions) does not acquire a 'significant interest'. Where a company is listed on a recognized exchange a 'significant interest' is an interest of 90% or more.

***Australian Death Duty***

Australia does not have estate or death duties. As a general rule, no capital gains tax liability is realized upon the inheritance of a deceased person's shares. The disposal of inherited shares by beneficiaries may, however, give rise to a capital gains tax liability if the gain falls within the scope of Australia's jurisdiction to tax. Holders should obtain specialist taxation advice in these circumstances.

***Goods and Services Tax***

No Australian goods and services tax should be payable on the transfer or issue of ADSs or ordinary shares.

THE DISCUSSION ABOVE IS A SUMMARY OF THE AUSTRALIAN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR ORDINARY SHARES OR ADSs AND IS BASED UPON LAWS AND RELEVANT INTERPRETATIONS THEREOF IN EFFECT AS OF THE DATE OF THIS annual report, ALL OF WHICH ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE, POSSIBLY WITH RETROSPECTIVE EFFECT. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO IT OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR ORDINARY SHARES OR ADSs IN LIGHT OF THE INVESTOR'S OWN CIRCUMSTANCES.

***BEPS Pillar Two***

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") has released the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting framework 2.0 ("Pillar Two") to introduce a global minimum corporate tax of 15% for companies with global revenues and profits above certain thresholds. As of December 31, 2025, Canada and Australia have enacted legislation related to the global minimum tax rules under Pillar Two. The United States has not yet enacted legislation to adopt Pillar Two. After considering the applicable tax law changes associated with Pillar Two legislation, we do not believe the Company falls within the scope of this legislation due to annual revenue of $5.6m not exceeding the minimum revenue standard of EUR 750 million. At this time there are no recorded tax effects for Pillar Two.

---

The depositary collects its fees for delivery and surrender of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary services by deduction from cash distributions or by directly billing investors or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants acting for them. The depositary may collect any of its fees by deduction from any cash distribution payable (or by selling a portion of securities or other property distributable) to ADS holders that are obligated to pay those fees. The depositary may generally refuse to provide fee-attracting services until its fees for those services are paid.

From time to time, the depositary may make payments to us to reimburse us for costs and expenses generally arising out of establishment and maintenance of the ADS program, waive fees and expenses for services provided to us by the depositary or share revenue from the fees collected from ADS holders. In performing its duties under the deposit agreement, the depositary may use brokers, dealers, foreign currency dealers or other service providers that are owned by or affiliated with the depositary and that may earn or share fees, spreads, or commissions.

The depositary may convert currency itself or through any of its affiliates, or the custodian or we may convert currency and pay U.S. dollars to the depositary. Where the depositary converts currency itself or through any of its affiliates, the

------

depositary acts as principal for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker, or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without limitation, transaction spreads, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under the deposit agreement and the rate that the depositary or its affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The depositary makes no representation that the exchange rate used or obtained by it or its affiliate in any currency conversion under the deposit agreement will be the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to ADS holders, subject to the depositary's obligation to act without negligence or bad faith. The methodology used to determine exchange rates used in currency conversions made by the depositary is available upon request. Where the custodian converts currency, the custodian has no obligation to obtain the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or to ensure that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to ADS holders, and the depositary makes no representation that the rate is the most favorable rate and will not be liable for any direct or indirect losses associated with the rate. In certain instances, the depositary may receive dividends or other distributions from us in U.S. dollars that represent the proceeds of a conversion of foreign currency or translation from foreign currency at a rate that was obtained or determined by us and, in such cases, the depositary will not engage in, or be responsible for, any foreign currency transactions, neither the depositary nor the Company makes any representation that the rate obtained or determined by us is the most favorable rate, and neither the depositary nor the Company will be liable for any direct or indirect losses associated with the rate.

**Item 13. Defaults, Dividend Arrearages and Delinquencies.**

Not applicable.

**Item 14. Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders and Use of Proceeds.**

Not applicable.

**Item 15. Controls and Procedures**

*<u>Disclosure controls and procedures</u>* 

*Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures*

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation (pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act) of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2025.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company's reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2025, due to the material weaknesses identified and described below.

Notwithstanding the assessment that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective and that material weaknesses existed as of December 31, 2025, we believe that we have performed sufficient supplementary procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this annual report on Form 20-F fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with IFRS.

*<u>Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting</u>*

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15 (f) under the Exchange Act. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations ("COSO") of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2025, because of the material weaknesses described below.

*<u>Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting</u>*

We previously disclosed in our annual report on 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2024, certain control deficiencies in the design and implementation of our internal control over financial reporting that constituted material weaknesses. These material weaknesses have not been remediated as of December 31, 2025.

------

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Limited personnel in our accounting and finance functions have resulted in our inability to establish sufficient segregation of duties across the key business and financial processes of our organization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Lack of appropriately designed, implemented, and documented procedures and controls to allow us to achieve complete, accurate and timely financial reporting, including controls over the preparation and review of account reconciliations and journal entries, and controls over information technology including access and program change management to ensure access to financial data is adequately restricted to appropriate personnel.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to an exemption from the auditor attestation requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as available to emerging growth companies.

*<u>Remediation Plan</u>*

The status of the remediation measures we have implemented to improve our internal control over financial reporting to address the underlying causes of the material weaknesses are summarized below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•During 2025, the Company made progress on many of its remedial actions with a focus on enhancing business processes and controls as the Company continues to mature. This included completion of formalized individual risk and control matrices for substantially all of the business processes of the Company and all domains of information technology general controls ("ITGCs"). However, many of these remedial actions, most importantly the new control activities, were not fully designed and implemented and/or operated contemporaneously and continuously as of December 31, 2025, and therefore the material weakness was not fully remediated at year-end. The Company plans to continue the refinement of the control environment by designing and implementing controls to mitigate business risks and assess operating effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting. We will continue to devote significant time and attention to these remediation efforts. However, the material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded that these controls are operating effectively.

*<u>Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm</u>*

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm due to an exemption from the auditor attestation requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as available to emerging growth companies.

------

*<u>Changes in internal control over financial reporting</u>*

Except for the improvements to our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the material weaknesses discussed above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**Item 16G. Corporate Governance**

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5615(a)(3), a foreign private issuer, such as our company, is permitted to follow certain home country corporate governance practices instead of certain provisions of the Nasdaq listing rules. A foreign private issuer electing to follow a home country practice instead of any such Nasdaq rule must submit to Nasdaq, in advance, a written statement from an independent counsel in such issuer's home country certifying that the issuer's practices are not prohibited by the home country's laws. maWe submitted such a written statement to Nasdaq. See "*Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees—C. Board Practices— Foreign Private Issuer Exemption*" for a concise summary of any significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those followed by domestic companies under the Nasdaq listing rules.

The Securities Trading Policy is filed as an exhibit to this annual report.

**Item 16K. Cybersecurity**

**Risk Management and Strategy**

We believe an effective cybersecurity program is critical to guard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our information systems and data residing in those systems. We have built and continue to evolve processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. We have embedded the oversight and management of cybersecurity risk within our enterprise risk management framework to help drive a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management, and we have established policies and procedures as well as a reporting line of governance that guide our cybersecurity risk management program.

------

The Company's Information Technology Department uses cybersecurity risk assessments, security monitoring tools, phishing testing, security training, system scanning, and penetration testing, among other technology and human resources, to monitor and identify cybersecurity threats and incidents. We engage a third party to perform a 24/7 cybersecurity monitoring, detection and response service. With the third party's assistance, our Information Technology Department track metrics that demonstrate our cybersecurity risk posture, including identified cybersecurity threats and risks, security awareness proficiency of employees, and system vulnerabilities and patching requirements.

We require all third-party vendors that may have access to Company, employee, customer, or other third-party data to undergo a vetting process prior to being approved and onboarded. The vetting process includes a review of the vendor's relevant policies and procedures, technology architecture, business practices and cybersecurity profile. Third-party vendor agreements include confidentiality obligations and specify data elements that the third party has access to, how the third party protects the data, and procedures for the return or destruction of protected data. The vendor also must report all cybersecurity incidents immediately to the Company's responsible functional manager and to the Director of Information Technology.

In addition to the above processes and resources, we maintain a cybersecurity incident response process. Within the Information Technology department, we have an Incident Response Team, which maintains and is responsible for communicating any cybersecurity incidents in accordance with a written incident response plan (the "Incident Response Plan"). The Incident Response Plan defines responsibilities and immediate actions necessary to mitigate risk, report on the incident to management, and identify necessary steps to remediate the incident and prevent future incidents. The Incident Response Team is responsible for identifying and assessing the impact of several factors, including duration of the breach or other incident, the number of systems and users affected, the actual or potential system downtime and associated financial impact, as well as the cost and timing of system and data recovery. Our Director of Information Technology is responsible for reporting cybersecurity incidents immediately to our senior management team. Depending on the nature and severity of an incident, the incident may also need to be reported to our Management Disclosure Committee to determine whether the incident is or is reasonably likely to become material and whether the Company must disclose the incident publicly, as well as to the Audit and Risk Management Committee and the Board of Directors.

**Governance** 

Our Board of Directors recognizes the importance of managing the risk of cybersecurity threats to the Company. The Board is responsible for overseeing our enterprise risk management activities in general, and each of our Board committees assists the Board in the role of risk oversight. The Audit and Risk Management Committee is responsible for, among other things, overseeing our compliance with internal controls and our management of enterprise risks, including cybersecurity risks and risk mitigation framework.

The Audit and Risk Management Committee meets at least twice each year and as often as necessary to fulfill its responsibilities. Our senior management team, which includes our CEO, CFO, Chief Legal & Risk Officer, and our Chief Operating Officer, together with the Director of Information Technology, reports on a regular basis to the Audit and Risk Management Committee on cybersecurity risks and trends and other information necessary to assess such risks and oversee the development and performance of our risk mitigation processes.

The Director of Information Technology leads our Information Technology Department and is responsible for overseeing our information security program. Reporting to our Chief Financial Officer, the Director of Information Technology has over 30 years of industry experience, including serving in similar roles leading and overseeing information and data security at other public companies. The Director of Information Technology is responsible for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks, as well as communicating cybersecurity incidents, matters and trends to Company management, the Audit and Risk Management Committee, and the Board of Directors. Team members who support our information security program have relevant educational and industry experience and regularly report to the Director of Information Technology. Our Information Technology Department regularly reports to senior management and other relevant teams on various cybersecurity threats, assessments, and findings.

------

We face risks from cybersecurity threats that could have a material adverse effect on our business, strategy, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or reputation, and we have experienced, and will likely continue to experience, cybersecurity incidents in the normal course of our business. However, to date, we have not experienced any cybersecurity incidents that have had or are reasonably likely to have such a material adverse effect.

See *Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors* ("***Our systems and data may be subject to disruptions or other security incidents, and we may face alleged violations of laws, regulations, or other obligations relating to handling our employees' personal data or confidential data of our customers and other business partners that could result in liability and adversely impact our reputation and future sales.***").

**Note 1 Summary of Material Accounting Policy Information**

**Corporate Information**

NOVONIX Limited ("NOVONIX," the "Company," or the "Group") is a battery technology and materials business that provides advanced products and mission critical services to leading battery manufacturers, materials companies, automotive original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") as well as consumer electronics manufacturers at the forefront of the global electrification economy. NOVONIX Limited is referred to in these financial statements as the "Parent Entity".

NOVONIX was incorporated under the laws of Australia in 2012 under the name Graphitecorp Pty Limited. In 2015, the Company completed an initial public offering of its ordinary shares and the listing of its ordinary shares on the Australian Securities Exchange, or the ASX, and changed the Company's name to GRAPHITECORP Limited. In 2017, the Company changed its name to NOVONIX Limited.

The Company's principal place of business is located at 1029 West 19th Street, Chattanooga, TN 37408, United States, and the Company's registered office is located at Level 11, 66 Eagle Street, Brisbane Queensland, Australia.

The financial statements were authorized for issue by the Directors on February 25, 2026. The Directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements.

**Basis of Preparation**

These general-purpose consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). Material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are presented below and have been consistently applied unless stated otherwise.

Except for cash flow information, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accruals basis and are based on historical costs, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair value of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

**Applying Materiality**

Management provides the specific accounting policies and disclosures required by IFRS unless the information is not applicable or is considered immaterial to the decision-making of the primary users of these financial statements.

**Going Concern**

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss of $92.7 million (year ended December 31, 2024: $74.8 million) and net operating cash outflows of $42.2 million (year ended December 31, 2024: $40.4 million). As of December 31, 2025, the Company has a cash balance of $79.9 million (December 31, 2024: $42.6 million) and net current assets of $5.6 million (December 31, 2024: $11.1 million).

The Company continues to execute its expansion plans to reach a production capacity of at least 150,000 tpa. This will involve scaling operations in line with customer offtake agreements, as well as current and future customer demand. To fund these expansionary activities, which will primarily require significant capital expenditures, additional funding beyond the existing cash balance as of 31 December 2025 and forecasted customer inflows will be necessary.

These conditions give rise to a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt (or raise substantial doubt as contemplated by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") standards) 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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the ability of the Company to raise funds as and when necessary, from either customers, governments, and/or investors in the form of debt or equity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the successful and profitable growth of the battery materials, battery consulting, and battery technology businesses; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the ability of the Company to meet its cash flow forecasts.

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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•$100 million of unsecured convertible debentures to Yorkville in July 2025;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•$20.2 million equivalent to 53.9 million ordinary shares to eligible shareholders pursuant to a share purchase plan in January 2025;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•$5 million equivalent to 12.8 million ordinary shares to Phillips 66 in January 2025; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•$26.6 million equivalent to 74.1 million ordinary shares in a fully underwritten institutional placement in November 2024.

The Company is continuing to actively engage with strategic partners, customers, investors, and government agencies, to source additional funding to support the Company's growth and fund the planned expansionary activities.

In addition, in April 2024, the Company was selected to receive a $103.0 million tax credit (the "48C tax credit") under the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Allocation Program (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 December 31, 2025, and to the date of issuance of the financial statements.

These consolidated financial statements do 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.

**Principles of Consolidation**

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Company has control. The Company controls an entity when the Company is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Company. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between entities in the Company are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company.

Where equity instruments are issued in a business combination, the fair value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange. Costs arising from a business combination are expensed when incurred. The consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement.

------

With limited exceptions, all identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred, amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity, over the net fair value of the Company's share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. If the consideration transferred of the acquisition is less than the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary, the difference is recognized as a gain in the profit and loss in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.

Where settlement of any part of the cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value, as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity's incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

**Fair Value Measurements**

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. For some assets and liabilities, observable market transactions or market information is available. For other assets and liabilities, observable market transactions or market information might not be available. When a price for an identical asset or liability is not observable, another valuation technique is used. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, there are three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Level 2 – Inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Company recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

**Income Tax Expense (Benefit)**

The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognized for prior periods, where applicable.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•When the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•When the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures and the timing of the reversal can be controlled, and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses.

The carrying amount of recognized and unrecognized deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognized are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available

------

for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognized deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.

**Revenue Recognition**

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized when control of the goods is transferred, or services are provided to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

*Sales of Goods*

Revenue for the hardware is recognized at a point in time when the hardware is delivered and the legal title has passed.

*Consulting Services*

The consulting division provides battery cell design, implementation and support services under fixed-price and variable price contracts. Revenue from providing services is recognized in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For fixed-price contracts, revenue is recognized based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period relative to the remaining services under the contract because the customer receives and uses the benefits simultaneously. This is determined based on the actual labor hours spent relative to the total expected labor hours.

Where the contracts include multiple performance obligations, the transaction price will be allocated to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling prices. Where these are not directly observable, they are estimated based on expected cost-plus margin.

**Contract Balances**

*Trade and Other Receivables*

A receivable is recognized when the Company's right to consideration is unconditional, which is generally when goods are delivered or services are performed, as only the passage of time is required before payment is due.

*Contract Liabilities*

A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or provide services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from the customer. If a customer pays consideration before the Company transfers goods or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognized when the payment is made, or the payment is due (whichever is earlier). Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when the Company performs under the contract.

**Other Income**

*Interest*

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

------

*Grant Revenue*

Grants from government bodies, including transferable 48C tax credits, are recognized where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and the Company will comply with all attached conditions. When a grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income on a systematic basis over the periods that the related expenses, for which it is intended to compensate, are expensed. Where a grant relates to an asset, it is recognized as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the related asset.

**Operating Segments**

Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ("CODMs"). The CODMs are responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

**Current and Non-Current Classification**

Assets and liabilities are presented in the balance sheet based on current and non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.

**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.

**Inventories**

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined based on the standard cost method, which approximates first-in, first-out. The cost of manufactured products includes direct materials.

**Borrowings**

Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

The fair value of the liability (borrowings) portion of a convertible bond is determined using a market interest rate for an equivalent non-convertible bond. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis until extinguished on conversion or maturity of the bonds. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the conversion option. Alternatively, the fair value of the conversion option is determined using Monte Carlo Simulation methodology, with the remainder of the proceeds allocated to the liability (borrowings) portion.

------

**Convertible Loan Notes**

Convertible loan notes are initially measured at fair value less transaction costs.

Amortized cost is calculated as the amount at which the loan note is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments and adjusted for any cumulative amortization of the difference between that initial amount and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method.

The effective interest method is used to allocate interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that discounts estimated future cash payments over the expected life of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial liability.

Non-derivative financial liabilities, other than financial guarantees, are subsequently measured at amortized cost. Gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss through the amortization process and when then financial liability is derecognized.

Convertible notes are classified as current liabilities unless, at the end of the reporting period, the Company has a right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Where convertible notes can be settled, at the option of the counterparty, by the transfer of the entity's own equity instruments, such settlement terms do not affect the classification of the liability as current or non-current where the option is classified as an equity instrument. With respect to the Company's convertible notes, the conversion option is accounted for as a derivative liability and can be exercised by the holder at any time - as disclosed in Note 22. As such, the conversion feature must be considered when assessing whether the Company has a right to defer settlement.

**Property, Plant, and Equipment**

Property, plant, and equipment is 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 straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:

Buildings 25 - 39 years <br> Plant and equipment 3 - 20 years

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.

An item of plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the Company. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss.

**Trade and Other Payables**

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

**Leases**

Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants other than the security interests in the leased assets that are held by the lessor. Leased assets may not be used as security for borrowing purposes.

------

Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net present value of the following lease payments:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives receivable,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement date,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Company exercising that option.

Lease payments to be made under reasonably certain extension options are also included in the measurement of the liability.

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case for leases in the Company, the lessee's incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.

To determine the incremental borrowing rate, the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•where possible, uses recent third-party financing received by the individual lessee as a starting point, adjusted to reflect changes in financing conditions since third party financing was received,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•uses a build-up approach that starts with a risk-free interest rate adjusted for credit risk for leases held by NOVONIX Limited, which does not have recent third-party financing,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•makes adjustments specific to the lease, e.g., term, country, currency and security.

The Company is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments based on an index or rate, which are not included in the lease liability until they take effect. When adjustments to lease payments based on an index or rate take effect, the lease liability is reassessed and adjusted against the right-of-use asset.

Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost comprising the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the amount of the initial measurement of lease liability,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•any initial direct costs,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•restoration costs.

Right-of-use assets are generally depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis. If the Company is reasonably certain to exercise a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated over the underlying asset's useful life. The Company does not revalue the right-of-use buildings held by the Company.

Payments associated with short-term leases of equipment and vehicles and all leases of low-value assets are recognized on a straight-line basis as an expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT equipment and small items of office furniture.

Extension options are included in property and equipment leases across the Company. These are used to maximize operational flexibility in terms of managing the assets used in the Company's operations. The extension options held are exercisable only by the Company and not by the lessor.

------

When the Company revises its estimate of the term of any lease (because, for example, it re-assesses the probability of a lessee extension or termination option being exercised), it adjusts the carrying amount of the lease liability to reflect the payments to make over the revised term, which are discounted using a revised discount rate. The carrying value of lease liabilities is similarly revised when the variable element of future lease payments dependent on a rate or index is revised, except the discount rate remains unchanged. In both cases an equivalent adjustment is made to the carrying value of the right-of-use asset, with the revised carrying amount being amortized over the remaining (revised) lease term. If the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is adjusted to zero, any further reduction is recognized in profit or loss.

When the Company renegotiates the contractual terms of a lease with the lessor, the accounting depends on the nature of the modification:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•if the renegotiation results in one or more additional assets being leased for an amount commensurate with the standalone price for the additional rights-of-use obtained, the modification is accounted for as a separate lease in accordance with the above policy,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•in all other cases where the renegotiated increases the scope of the lease (whether that is an extension to the lease term, or one or more additional assets being leased), the lease liability is remeasured using the discount rate applicable on the modification date, with the right-of-use asset being adjusted by the same amount,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•if the renegotiation results in a decrease in the scope of the lease, both the carrying amount of the lease liability and right-of-use asset are reduced by the same proportion to reflect the partial of full termination of the lease with any difference recognized in profit or loss. The lease liability is then further adjusted to ensure its carrying amount reflects the amount of the renegotiated payments over the renegotiated term, with the modified lease payments discounted at the rate applicable on the modification date. The right-of-use asset is adjusted by the same amount.

Specific details about the Company's leasing policy are provided in Note 20.

**Investments and Other Financial Assets**

*Classification*

The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss),

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•those to be measured at amortized cost.

The classification depends on the entity's business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual terms of the cash flows.

For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Company has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity investment at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).

*Recognition and Derecognition*

Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on trade date, being the date on which the Company commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

------

*Measurement*

At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed in profit or loss.

The Company subsequently measures all equity investments at fair value. Where the Company's management has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity investments in OCI, there is no subsequent reclassification or fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income as other income when the Company's right to receive payment is established.

Changes in fair value of financial assets at FVPL are recognized in other gains/(losses) in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income as applicable. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity investments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.

**Employee Benefits**

*Short-Term Employee Benefits*

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Short-term incentives are payable on achievement of mutually agreed KPIs each fiscal year with short-term incentives being payable in either cash or by way of the issue of fully paid ordinary shares. The Company has historically paid short- term incentives in cash.

*Other Long-Term Employee Benefits*

The liability for long service leaves not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date is measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date using the projected unit credit method. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on corporate bonds with terms to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.

*Share-Based Payments*

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

The cost of equity-settled transactions is measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is determined using various valuation methods including Black Scholes, Binomial and the Monte Carlo Simulation method that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the performance right, 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 performance right award.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized 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 recognized in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognized in previous periods.

------

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 recognized as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognized, 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.

Share-based payment expenses are recognized over the period during which the employee provides the relevant services. This period may commence prior to the grant date. In this situation, the entity estimates the grant date fair value of the equity instruments for the purposes of recognizing the services received during the period between service commencement date and grant date. Once the grant date has been established, the earlier estimate is revised so that the amount recognized for services received is ultimately based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments.

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the Company or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the Company or employee and is not satisfied during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognized 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 recognized 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.

**Issued Capital**

Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

**Impairment of Non-Financial Assets**

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information, including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value in use, to the asset's carrying amount. Any excess of the assets carrying amount over its recoverable amount is recognized immediately in profit or loss, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount in accordance with another Standard. Any impairment loss of a revalued asset is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with that other Standard.

Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill, intangible assets with indefinite lives and intangible assets not yet available for use.

**Goodwill**

Goodwill acquired on a business combination is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the consideration transferred for the business combination over the Company's interest in the net fair value of the acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities.

------

Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment, annually, or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired (Note 17 - *Intangible Assets*).

As at the acquisition date, any goodwill acquired is allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the combination's synergies.

Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill relates.

Where the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized.

Where goodwill forms part of a cash-generating unit and part of the operation within that unit is disposed, the goodwill associated with the disposed operation is included in the carrying amount of the operation when determining the gain or loss on disposal of the operation.

Disposed goodwill in this circumstance is measured on the basis of the relative values of the disposed operation and the portion of the cash-generating unit retained.

**Research and Development Costs**

Research and development costs primarily represent the Company's investment in research and development activities for the all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis project. At present, the Company's research and development activities are conducted through our two core businesses: BTS and NAM; cathode falls under BTS R&D.

Research expenditures are recognized as an expense when incurred. Costs incurred on development projects (relating to the design and testing of enhancements or extensions of products from the all-dry, zero-waste cathode synthesis project) are recognized as intangible assets when:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the intention to complete the intangible asset and use it or sell it,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the ability to use or sell the intangible asset,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•how the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the availability of adequate technical, financial, and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

The expenditures capitalized comprise all directly attributable costs, including costs of materials, services, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognized as an expense when incurred. Development costs previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period. Capitalized development costs are recorded as intangible assets and amortized from the point at which the asset is ready for use on a straight-line basis over its useful life.

**Borrowing Costs**

General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. Qualifying assets are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale.

------

Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when expenditure for the asset is being incurred, borrowing costs are being incurred and activities necessary to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. Capitalisation ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale are complete.

Other borrowing costs are recognised as an expense in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Borrowing costs include interest expense calculated using the effective interest method, amortisation of transaction costs and finance charges in respect of lease liabilities.

**Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances**

*Functional and Presentation Currency*

The functional currency of each entity within the Group is the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The parent entity's functional currency is Australian dollars (AUD), while certain subsidiaries have U.S. dollars (USD) and Canadian dollars (CAD) as their functional currencies, reflecting the jurisdictions in which they operate and generate cash flows.

The Group's presentation (reporting) currency is U.S. dollars. The financial statements of entities with functional currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars for consolidation purposes. The Company has adopted U.S. dollars as its reporting currency to enhance the relevance of its financial information and improve comparability with its industry peer group.

*Transactions and Balances*

Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognized in profit or loss, except were deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge.

Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognized directly in other comprehensive income to the extent that the underlying gain or loss is recognized in other comprehensive income; otherwise, the exchange difference is recognized in profit or loss.

*Group Companies*

The financial results and position of foreign operations, whose functional currency is different from the Company's presentation currency, are translated as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Accumulated losses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations with functional currencies other than U.S. dollars are recognized in other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the consolidated balance sheet. The cumulative amount of these differences is reclassified into profit or loss in the period in which the operation is disposed of.

------

**Earnings Per Share**

*Basic Earnings Per Share*

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of the Company, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year.

*Diluted Earnings Per Share*

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after-income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

**Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and Other Similar Taxes**

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognized as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the balance sheet.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.

**Assets Held for Sale** 

Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, are classified as held-for-sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.

Such assets, or disposal groups, are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss on a disposal group is allocated first to goodwill, and then to the remaining assets and liabilities on a pro rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to inventories, financial assets, deferred tax assets, employee benefit assets, investment property or biological assets, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Company's other accounting policies. Impairment losses on initial classification as held-for-sale or held-for-distribution and subsequent gains and losses on remeasurement are recognized in profit or loss.

Once classified as held-for-sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer amortized or depreciated, and any equity-accounted investee is no longer equity accounted.

**New and Amended Standards and Interpretations**

The following amendments are effective for the period beginning January 1, 2025 and are applicable to the consolidated financial statements of the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Lack of Exchangeability (Amendment to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates).

------

A summary of the changes to the accounting standards and on how the amendments affected the consolidated financial statements is presented below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•In August 2023, the IASB issued Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates). The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025 and have been applied by the Group for the year ended December 31, 2025. The amendments clarify how an entity determines whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and how to determine the spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. The amendments require an entity to estimate the spot exchange rate when a currency cannot be exchanged and introduce additional disclosure requirements to enable users to understand the impact of a currency not being exchangeable. The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Group's financial statements.

**Standards and Interpretations not yet Effective**

The Company has decided not to early adopt new standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations which have been issued by the IASB that are effective in future accounting periods, which include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7), effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2026;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7), effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2026;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, effective for the annual period beginning January 1, 2027. The Group is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 18 on its financial statements. Based on a preliminary assessment, the adoption of IFRS 18 is expected to result in changes to the presentation and disclosure of the Group's financial performance, including the introduction of an operating profit subtotal and additional disclosures relating to any management-defined performance measures. IFRS 18 is not expected to have a material impact on the recognition or measurement of the Group's assets, liabilities, income or expenses. The Group will apply IFRS 18 retrospectively with restatement of comparative information in the year of initial application.

The Company is currently assessing the effect of these new accounting standards and amendments.

**Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments**

The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed below.

*Valuation of LG Unsecured Convertible Notes and Embedded Derivatives*

The fair value of the conversion feature is determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the convertible loan notes were issued. The key assumptions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The probability of the timing of when the parties will enter into a purchase order for material, which will lead to the mandatory conversion of all loan notes into ordinary shares,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The risk-free rate,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The volatility of the NOVONIX share price.

------

*Valuation of Yorkville Unsecured Convertible Notes and Embedded Derivatives*

The fair value of the conversion feature is determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the convertible loan notes were issued. The key assumptions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The risk-free rate,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The volatility of the NOVONIX share price.

*Impairment of Goodwill and Identifiable Intangible Assets*

The Company determines whether goodwill is impaired on an annual basis. This assessment requires an estimation of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating units to which the goodwill is allocated.

*Share Based Payment Transactions* 

The Company has issued options where individual tranches have variable vesting dates due to the performance conditions being linked to the achievement of incremental production targets. At each reporting period, an estimate is made of the expected vesting dates for each of the tranches based on the expectation of when performance conditions will be met, and where necessary, an adjustment to the share-based payment expense is recognized.

*Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value through Profit Loss*

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Company uses its judgment to select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period. For details of the key assumptions used and the impact of changes to these assumptions see Note 15 - *Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss*.

*Government Grants*

In April 2024, the Company was selected to receive a $103.0 million tax credit (the "48C tax credit") under the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Allocation Program (the "48C program"), to support production of critical battery materials from its Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The Company has applied judgment to determine whether there is reasonable assurance that the conditions associated with the 48C tax credits will be completed and the grant will be received. The Company has determined that at the reporting date there is no reasonable assurance that the conditions associated with the 48C tax credit will be completed. As such, the grant is not recognized in the financial statements.

Other areas of critical accounting estimates and judgments include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•unused tax losses for which no deferred tax asset has been recognized (See Note 6 – *Income Tax (Benefit) Expense*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the impairment testing of goodwill (See Note 17 – *Intangible Assets*).

Deferred tax assets are only recognized for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses. An amount of $116,289 has been recognized in relation to the deferred tax assets of NOVONIX Corp, as it has been determined that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize temporary differences.

Unused losses which have not been recognized as an asset, will only be obtained if:

• the Company derives future assessable income of a nature and of an amount sufficient to enable the losses to be realized,

• the Company continues to comply with the conditions for deductibility imposed by the law,

• no changes in tax legislation adversely affect the Company in realizing the losses.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company has no tax-related contingent liabilities for uncertain tax treatment.

The Company is not under examination in any of its tax-filing jurisdictions.

The net operating losses in the United States, Canada, and Australia of $276,135,326 are principally indefinite-lived; however, of this amount $60,573,649 is limited with the earliest expiration beginning in 2033.

*Offsetting within Tax Consolidated Entity*

NOVONIX Limited and its wholly-owned Australian subsidiaries have applied the tax consolidation legislation which means that these entities are taxed as a single entity. As a consequence, the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities of these entities have been offset in the consolidated financial statements.

**Note 15 Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss**

*Classification of Financial Assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss*

The Company classifies equity investments for which it has not elected to recognize fair value gains and losses through OCI as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL).

On January 31, 2022, NOVONIX Limited entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with KORE Power, Inc. ("KORE Power") a U.S. based developer of battery cell technology for the clean energy industry, under which NOVONIX Limited acquired 3,333,333 shares of KORE Power Common Stock at an issue price of $7.50 per share, representing approximately 5% of the common equity of KORE Power. The consideration for the shares in KORE Power totaled $25 million (A$35,131,550) and was settled through a combination of 50% cash and 50% through the issue of 1,974,723 ordinary shares in NOVONIX Limited.

The equity investment was fully written down in 2024. At December 31, 2025, the investment in KORE Power represents approximately 3.7% of the common equity of KORE Power. The Company values the investment in KORE Power at $nil as of December 31, 2025.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a loss in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income related to equity investments held at FVPL as a result of the fair value measurement described in the Valuation Techniques using Significant Unobservable Inputs – Level 3 section below.

*Fair Value Hierarchy*

U.S. unlisted equity securities are 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.

The following table presents the changes in level 3 instruments during the year ended December 31, 2025 (in U.S. dollars):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **December 31,** | **December 31,** |
|  | **2025** | **2024** |
| Opening balance | $— | $16666665 |
| Changes during the period: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Loss on equity investment securities at fair value through profit or loss |  | (15308187) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Exchange difference |  | (1358478) |
| Balance at December 31, 2025 | $— | $— |

---

There were no transfers between levels 1, 2 or 3 for recurring fair value measurements during the year. The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and out of fair value hierarchy levels as at the end of the reporting period.

*Valuation Techniques using Significant Unobservable Inputs – Level 3*

This category includes assets where the valuation incorporates significant inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). Unobservable inputs are those not readily available in an active market due to market illiquidity or complexity of the product. These inputs are generally derived and extrapolated from observable inputs to match the risk profile of the financial instrument, and are calibrated against current market assumptions, historic transactions and economic models, where available.

At December 31, 2024, the Company considered available information produced by management of KORE Power as well as factors impacting KORE Power's operations and concluded that the fair value of the investment had been reduced to nil. This was further confirmed by KORE Power's decision to cancel its plans to develop its KOREPlex battery manufacturing facility in Buckeye, Arizona and the resignation of its CEO, announced on January 31, 2025. The Company continues to value the investment as of December 31, 2025 as $nil based on the assessment performed at year end.

Intangible assets, other than goodwill, have finite useful lives. The current amortization charges for intangible assets are included under depreciation and amortization expense in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive (loss) income. Goodwill has an indefinite useful life.

------

The Company performs its annual impairment testing of goodwill for the NAM GCU 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 late 2027.

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.

The recoverable amount of the NOVONIX Anode Materials CGU ("NAM CGU") was deemed to be in excess of the carrying value of the NAM CGU, and therefore no impairment was recognized as of June 30, 2025.

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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Post-tax discount rate: 11.5% (2024: 11.5%)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Revenue sales prices: USD $10–$12/kg updated from 2024 (USD $7–$10/kg) in connection with the U.S. Department of Commerce's (US DOC) preliminary rulings on countervailing duties and antidumping tariffs related to imported Chinese graphite.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Sales volume growth: Consistent with previously disclosed contractual agreements to supply up to 157,000 tonnes of anode material from 2027 to 2034 (2024: 2026 to 2034); pricing is adjusted thereafter for inflation and expected market trends. Reflects current and anticipated customer demand, aligning with production equipment commissioning and product availability. No incremental production volume growth is assumed beyond full production capacity of 20,000 tpa.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Operating costs: USD $6–$8/kg, based on the current Riverside Project Plan and adjusted for inflation (2024: USD $6-$8/kg).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Terminal growth rate: 2.5%, reflecting long-term expectations for growth and inflation in the market in which the NAM CGU operates (2024: 2.5%).

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.

The directors have assessed impairment triggers since the annual impairment test was performed at June 30, 2025, and have not identified any indicators of impairment at December 31, 2025.

------

The recoverable amount of the NAM CGU is deemed to be in excess of the carrying value of the CGU, and therefore no impairment has been recognized at December 31, 2025.

During the 2021 financial year, the Company received grant funds of $3,000,000 from the Department of Economic and Community Development in the State of Tennessee, USA. The grant funds are conditional upon the Company creating, filling, and maintaining 290 jobs in the State of Tennessee.

The grant becomes fully earned once 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.

During the 2025 financial year, the Company determined that it would not hit the performance target and accordingly reclassified this amount from a non-current contract liability to sundry payables and accrued expenses as the funds received will have to be repaid in 2026.

**Yorkville convertible debentures**

On July 24, 2025, the Company entered into a funding agreement with YA II PN, Ltd, an affiliate of Yorkville Advisors Global, LP ("Yorkville"), under which the Company issued $100.0 million of unsecured convertible debentures, for proceeds of $95.0 million.

The convertible debentures are unsecured obligations of the Company and were issued at a price equal to 95% of face value. The debentures bear interest at 5% per annum, payable semi-annually in cash, ordinary shares, or a combination of both at the discretion of Yorkville.

The debentures mature 18 months from the relevant drawdown date, unless earlier converted or redeemed. Yorkville may elect to convert all or part of the outstanding debentures into fully paid ordinary shares at a variable conversion price, subject to a floor price of A$0.12 per share and an upper limit based on a fixed conversion price of A$0.6435.

The funding agreement provided for the issuance of the debentures in multiple tranches, with drawdowns subject to certain conditions precedent, including market capitalisation, liquidity thresholds and the absence of a material adverse change. At December 31, 2025 the convertible debentures have been fully drawn down, and US$60.0 million of convertible debentures had been converted.

If all outstanding convertible notes were converted at December 31, 2025, 142,273,914 ordinary shares would have been issued upon conversion.

The Company may, at its discretion, redeem the debentures in cash at any time up to three months prior to the applicable maturity date at a price equal to 110% of the outstanding principal amount. Early redemption is permitted only where both (i) the average of the seven daily VWAPs of the Company's Shares traded on the ASX immediately preceding the proposed redemption date, and (ii) the VWAP of the Shares on the ASX on the trading day immediately prior to the proposed redemption date, are each below the fixed conversion price. Any outstanding debentures not converted prior to maturity are repayable in cash on the maturity date.

The fair value of the conversion option (derivative financial liability) was determined using Monte Carlo Simulation methodology. The key assumptions include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The risk-free rate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•The volatility of the NOVONIX share price.

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.

*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.

The valuation model is highly sensitive to the probability weights applied to the timing of the placement of the purchase order, which is a significant unobservable input. See Note 31 *Financial Risk Management* for Level 3 disclosures and key assumptions.

**LGES convertible debentures**

On June 21, 2023, the Company issued 45,221,586 convertible loan notes, with a face value of A$1.00 per note, a coupon rate of 4%, and a maturity date of June 7, 2028, for proceeds of $30 million to LGES. The notes have a conversion price of A$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). The conversion option with LGES is accounted for as a derivative instrument.

The fair value of the conversion option (derivative financial liability) was determined using 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.

The valuation model is highly sensitive to the probability weights applied to the timing of the placement of the purchase order, which is a significant unobservable input. In the event the purchase order is placed before maturity date of the notes, the interest rate would become zero-coupon and, the fair value of the derivative would decrease by $5.7 million.

**Note 25 Operating Segments**

The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Executive Key Management Personnel Board of Directors (Chief Operating Decision Makers or "CODM") in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Company is managed primarily on an operational basis. Operating segments are determined on the basis of financial information reported to the CODM.

The CODM has 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 and manufactures battery cell testing equipment, performs consulting services and carries out research and development in battery development. The Graphite Exploration segment manages the maintenance and future development of Mount Dromedary natural graphite deposit. The Company will reassess reportable segments if and when the assets held for sale are sold. See Note 16 - *Exploration and Evaluation Assets.*

**Basis of Accounting for Purposes of Reporting by Operating Segments**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Accounting policies adopted:** Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the CODM, being the chief operating decision makers, with respect to operating segments, are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent with those adopted in the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Segment assets:** 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Segment liabilities:** Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is a direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•**Unallocated items:** 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:

---

| |
|:---|
| Interest income |
| Corporate administrative and other expenses |
| Income tax expense |
| Corporate share-based payment expenses |

**Note 28 Share-based payments**

*Performance Rights and Options*

Employees of the Company participate in the Company's long-term incentive program ("LTIP") comprising grants of performance rights and options with varying vesting conditions. The performance rights and options carry no dividend or voting rights. Performance rights and options may vest immediately or dependent on the recipient remaining in employment, or achievement of performance-related vesting conditions, by the vesting date. Upon vesting, each performance right and option is convertible into one ordinary share of NOVONIX Limited. If an executive ceases employment before the rights or options vest, the rights or options will be forfeited, except in limited circumstances that they are approved by the Board on a case-by-case basis.

*Share Rights*

Non-executive Directors participate on an annual grant of equity awards using a value-based approach, which the Board has adopted by issuing Share Rights to Non-executive Directors of the Company each financial year with a fixed US dollar value. As a sign of the Board's long-term commitment to investors and the Company, effective January 1, 2024, Directors reduced the value of share rights they received from $110,000 to $55,000.

The share rights carry no dividend or voting rights. Upon vesting, each share right is convertible into one ordinary share of NOVONIX Limited. If a non-executive director ceases to hold office before the share rights vest, the rights will convert on a prorate basis.

**PERFORMANCE RIGHTS**

For executive LTI awards granted in 2024 and 2025, all performance rights vest based on corporate performance, with others vesting solely based on time. Payouts are measured based on achievement of relative TSR (versus a peer group of 20 companies primarily focused on the diversified metals and electronic equipment industries) over a three-year performance period and are capped at the target opportunity. Performance rights require a minimum level of relative TSR (35th percentile) to achieve any payout, regardless of revenue earned, and a relative TSR of at least 60th percentile to pay out at the highest level.

------

Performance rights granted in 2025 also include a revenue modifier based on the attainment of a three-year revenue goal (with the payout still capped at the target opportunity).

The number of FY25 Performance Rights that will vest upon satisfaction of the TSR Measure (specified above) will be adjusted based on the Company meeting certain revenue milestones in respect of the 2027 Financial Year (assessed as at December 31, 2027).

Notwithstanding the Revenue Target Modifier, the total number of Performance Rights that can vest shall not exceed the number of Performance Rights representing the target opportunity.

Other Performance rights outstanding prior to December 31, 2025, are vesting, based on the achievement of performance criteria, such as corporate goals (achievement of revenue targets for a specified period of time), and those vesting only based on continued service over time.

**Note 31 Financial Risk Management**

This note explains the Company's exposure to financial risks and how these risks could affect the Company's future financial performance. The current year profit or loss information has been included where relevant to add further context.

The totals for each category of financial instruments, measured in accordance with IFRS 9: *Financial Instruments,* as detailed in the accounting policies to these consolidated financial statements, are as follows:

---

|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  |  | **December 31,** | **December 31,** |

---

The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Company's risk management objectives and policies. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company's competitiveness and flexibility.

**Market Risk**

Market risk is the risk that the change in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments.

The Company had $40.0 million of convertible notes on issue to Yorkville at December 31, 2025. If all outstanding convertible notes were converted at December 31, 2025, 142,273,914 ordinary shares would have been issued upon conversion. At December 31, 2025, if the share price had changed by -/+ $0.01 from the December 31, 2025 share price, with all other variables held constant, the adjustment to the number of shares that would be issued upon conversion would be 3,459,128 (decrease) or 3,298,723 (increase).

**Foreign Currency Risk**

Foreign exchange risk arises from future transactions and recognized assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency of the relevant Company entity. Exposure to foreign currency risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Company holds financial instruments which are other than the USD.

With instruments being held by overseas operations, fluctuations in the Canadian dollar may impact on the Company's financial results.

The following table shows the foreign currency risk as on the financial assets and liabilities of the Company's operations denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the operations.

------

The Company's exposure to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period, expressed in U.S. dollars, was as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **December 31, 2025<br>CAD** | **December 31, 2024<br>CAD** | **December 31, 2025<br>USD** | **December 31, 2024<br>USD** |
| Cash at bank | $— | $937486 | $— | $2351324 |
| Trade receivables |  |  |  | 1507778 |
| Trade payables |  | 3623 |  | 50778 |

---

**Cash Flow and Fair Value Interest Rate Risk**

The Company's main interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings with variable rates, which expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's borrowings at variable rates were denominated in Canadian and U.S. dollars.

As the Company has interest-bearing cash assets, the Company's income and operating cash flows are exposed to changes in market interest rates. The Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates by using fixed term deposits.

At December 31, 2025, if interest rates had changed by -/+ 100 basis points from the year-end rates with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit / (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2025, would have been $479,669 ($98,738 for the year ended December 31, 2024) lower/higher, as a result of higher/lower interest income from cash and cash equivalents.

**Credit Risk**

Credit risk is managed on a Company basis. Credit risk arises primarily from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions, and trade and other receivables. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of 'AAA' are accepted.

For trade and other receivables, amounts are considered as "past due" when the debt has not been settled, in line with the terms and conditions agreed between the Company and the customer to the transaction. Due to a strong credit approval process, the Company has a minimal history of bad debt write-offs.

The balance of receivables that remain within initial trade terms are considered to be of high credit quality. The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings (if available).

See Note 10 – *Trade and other receivables* for further discussion of the Company's policy regarding expected credit losses.

**Liquidity Risk**

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities to meet obligations when due.

The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows. All finance facilities available to the Company were fully drawn down at the end of the reporting period.

All financial assets mature within one year. The maturity of all financial liabilities is set out in the table below.

*Financing Arrangements*

The Company's undrawn borrowing facilities as at December 31, 2025 totals $62,000 which relates to the loan facilities secured over commercial land and buildings (See Note 21 - *Borrowings*).

------

*Maturities of Financial Liabilities*

As of December 31, 2025, the contractual maturities of the Company's non-derivative financial liabilities were as follows:

---

| | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Contractual maturities of <br>financial liabilities** | **Less than <br>6 months** | **6 – 12 <br>months** | **Between <br>1 and 2 <br>years** | **Between <br>2 and 5 <br>years** | **Over <br>5 years** | **Total <br>contractual <br>cash flows** | **Carrying <br>amount** |
| **At December 31, 2025** | **US$** | **US$** | **US$** | **US$** | **US$** | **US$** | **US$** |

<sup>\*</sup> Includes convertible notes (note 22) with terms that allow for redemption in cash at maturity (June 2028) at the option of the holder.

**Note 32 Events after the Reporting Date**

Since December 31, 2025, the Company has:

**Disposal of Battery Technology Solutions Business Segment**

The Company announced on February 18, 2026, that it entered a binding term sheet for the proposed sale of its NOVONIX Battery Technology Solutions business. The proposed transaction represents a divestiture of the Company's non-core business segment and aligns NOVONIX's strategic focus to establish a vertically integrated synthetic graphite supply chain in North America.

The proposed transaction is for a share equity sale of the BTS business including all associated assets and liabilities at a transaction price of $1.00. As part of the transaction the cash balance for BTS at closing will be $2 million. NOVONIX will receive a 15% non-dilutive equity stake in the Cathode business.

Consequently, management determined that a fixed asset impairment of $7.3 million was necessary to align the recoverable value and the carrying amounts as of December 31, 2025, as presented on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. See Note 14 – Property, Plant, and Equipment for additional details.

The transaction is subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements and satisfaction of customary conditions precedent. The parties expect to finalize the definitive agreements and complete the transaction in the coming months.

There have been no other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, which significantly affected or could significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results of those operations or the state of affairs of the Company.

![img58969013_15.jpg](img58969013_15.jpg)

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

**Independence**

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 audits of the financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

**Material uncertainty related to going concern**

We draw attention to Note 1 in the 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 opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

**Our audit approach**

An audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance about whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report.

We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an opinion on the financial report as a whole, taking into account the geographic and management structure of the Group, its accounting processes and controls and the industry in which it operates.

------

![img58969013_15.jpg](img58969013_15.jpg)

**Audit Scope**

Our audit focused on where the Group made subjective judgements; for example, significant accounting estimates involving assumptions and inherently uncertain future events.

In establishing the overall approach to the group audit, we determined the type of work that needed to be performed by us, as the group auditor.

**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 for the current period. The key audit 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. Further, any commentary on the outcomes of a particular audit procedure is made in that context. We communicated the key audit matters to the Audit and Risk Management Committee.

In addition to the matters 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.

**Other information**

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon through our opinion on the financial report. We have issued a separate opinion on the remuneration report.

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.

If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor's report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

**Responsibilities of the directors for the financial report**

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the 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 financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

**Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial report**

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free

from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. 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 the financial report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at: <u>https://auasb.gov.au/media/bwvjcgre/ar1_2024.pdf</u>. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

<sup>1</sup>"Corporate governance statement" is defined in Listing Rule 19.12 to mean the statement referred to in Listing Rule 4.10.3 which discloses the extent to which an entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during a particular reporting period.

Listing Rule 4.10.3 requires an entity that is included in the official list as an ASX Listing to include in its annual report either a corporate governance statement that meets the requirements of that rule or the URL of the page on its website where such a statement is located. The corporate governance statement must disclose the extent to which the entity has followed the recommendations set by the ASX Corporate Governance Council during the reporting period. If the entity has not followed a recommendation for any part of the reporting period, its corporate governance statement must separately identify that recommendation and the period during which it was not followed and state its reasons for not following the recommendation and what (if any) alternative governance practices it adopted in lieu of the recommendation during that period.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.4, if an entity chooses to include its corporate governance statement on its website rather than in its annual report, it must lodge a copy of the corporate governance statement with ASX at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The corporate governance statement must be current as at the effective date specified in that statement for the purposes of Listing Rule 4.10.3.

Under Listing Rule 4.7.3, an entity must also lodge with ASX a completed Appendix 4G at the same time as it lodges its annual report with ASX. The Appendix 4G serves a dual purpose. It acts as a key designed to assist readers to locate the governance disclosures made by a listed entity under Listing Rule 4.10.3 and under the ASX Corporate Governance Council's recommendations. It also acts as a verification tool for listed entities to confirm that they have met the disclosure requirements of Listing Rule 4.10.3.

The Appendix 4G is not a substitute for, and is not to be confused with, the entity's corporate governance statement. They serve different purposes and an entity must produce each of them separately.

<sup>2</sup> Tick whichever option is correct and then complete the page number(s) of the annual report, or the URL of the web page, where your corporate governance statement can be found. You can, if you wish, delete the option which is not applicable.

<sup>3</sup> Throughout this form, where you are given two or more options to select, you can, if you wish, delete any option which is not applicable and just retain the option that is applicable. If you select an option that includes "<u>OR</u>" at the end of the selection and you delete the other options, you can also, if you wish, delete the "<u>OR</u>" at the end of the selection.

See notes 4 and 5 below for further instructions on how to complete this form.
