CHAIRMAN'S LETTER

Dear Shareholders,

Welcome to the 2024 Annual Report for European Metals Holdings Limited ("European Metals" or "the Company").

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to report on a year of significant progress for the Company and the Cinovec Lithium Project ("Cinovec Project") despite challenging macro conditions.

Lithium prices have fallen by some 80% over the year, and at the time of writing, there have been numerous closures and production cutbacks at established lithium production projects around the globe. Falling prices along with increasing costs have combined to make new lithium project development more challenging. However, the Company, remains confident in the lithium market medium to long term and the future of our project. We have already seen improvements in the macro indicators and remain enthusiastically committed to developing the Cinovec Project.

We welcomed the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development ("EBRD") as a shareholder early in the year. We believe the bank's involvement in the Company and the project is significant. The EBRD works very closely with the European Investment Bank, and the organisations have made joint public statements about their support for funding the energy transition in Europe, linked to the support that the industry is receiving from the European Union ("EU"). We have lodged our formal submission under the Critical Raw Materials Act post-period and we look forward to the Cinovec Project being recognised as a strategic project under this legislation. As previously reported, the project already enjoys strategic project status under another EU initiative, the Just Transition Fund.

Other key milestones achieved during the year included the successful production of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide from the pilot programme - both meeting battery grade specifications, the granting of extensions to our exploration licenses which cover granted Preliminary Mining Permits, and the selection of a significantly superior site for the lithium processing plant.

Clearly, the Definitive Feasibility Study delay during the year was unfortunate, though necessary. The plant location attributes required comprehensive assessment in order for engineering and design improvements to be made to ensure improved permitting and project economics. We have been working on processing enhancements during this time, which we anticipate will further improve the project economics.

Corporately, we welcomed Non-executive Director Merrill Gray to the Board of Directors as part of the Company's redomiciliation to Australia.

The project continues to enjoy strong support from all levels of the Czech government. It remains well-positioned to assist in addressing the supply and demand imbalance of lithium in the European Union, as substantial battery manufacturing projects progress and real raw material supply gaps emerge.

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all staff, advisors, contractors, our project partners, CEZ, and shareholders who have supported us over the past difficult year. I look forward to updating you throughout the new financial year as we continue to advance the Cinovec Project.

Keith Coughlan

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

PROJECT REVIEW

Geomet s.r.o. controls the mineral exploration licenses awarded by the Czech State over the Cinovec Lithium Project. Geomet has been granted a preliminary mining permit by the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry of Industry. The Company is owned 49% by EMH and 51% by CEZ a.s. through its wholly owned subsidiary, SDAS. Cinovec hosts a globally significant hard rock lithium deposit with a total Measured Mineral Resource of 53.3Mt at 0.48% Li₂O, Indicated Mineral Resource of 360.2Mt at 0.44% Li₂O and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 294.7Mt at 0.39% Li₂O containing a combined 7.39 million tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 13 October 2021) (Resource Upgrade at Cinovec Lithium Project).

An initial Probable Ore Reserve of 34.5Mt at 0.65% Li₂O reported 4 July 2017 (Cinovec Maiden Ore Reserve - Further Information) has been declared to cover the first 20 years mining at an output of 22,500tpa of lithium carbonate (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 11 July 2018) (Cinovec Production Modelled to Increase to 22,500tpa of Lithium Carbonate).

This makes Cinovec the largest hard rock lithium deposit in Europe and the fifth largest non-brine deposit in the world.

Parts of the ore body near surface have been mined for tin from the 14th Century to the 20th Century and the lithium-bearing orebody below surface previously had over 400,000 tonnes of ore mined as a trial sub-level open stope mining operation for tin mineralisation in the 1980's.

On 19 January 2022, EMH provided an update to the 2019 Pre-Feasibility-Study ("PFS") Update. It confirmed the deposit is amenable to bulk underground mining (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 19 January 2022) (PFS Update delivers outstanding results). Metallurgical test-work has produced both battery-grade lithium hydroxide and battery-grade lithium carbonate at excellent recoveries. In February 2023 DRA Global Limited ("DRA") was appointed to complete the Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS").

Cinovec is centrally located for European end-users and is well serviced by infrastructure, with a sealed road adjacent to the deposit, rail lines located 5 km north and 8 km south of the deposit, and an active 22 kV transmission line running to the historic mine. The deposit lies in an active mining region.

The economic viability of Cinovec has been enhanced by the recent push for supply security of critical raw materials for battery production, including the strong increase in demand for lithium globally, and within Europe specifically, as demonstrated by the European Union's Critical Raw Materials Act ("CRMA").

EBRD STRATEGIC INVESTMENT

Early in the year, the Company successfully completed a capital raising of approximately €6 million by European Bank for Reconstruction and Development ("EBRD") as a strategic investment in the Company and the development of the Cinovec Project (refer to the Company's ASX release dated 21 July 2023) (EBRD Strategic Investment in EMH). As part of the due diligence process, EBRD engaged an independent, international mining consultancy to undertake a technical review of the Cinovec Project. EBRD also performed a review of the Cinovec Project in respect to compliance with EBRD's Environmental and Social Policy. The Company considers its relationship with EBRD to be highly strategic as the European Union charts a path towards greater lithium supply security and sustainability. Support for the Company's lithium project aligns with these EU goals.

The EBRD is an international financial institution established in 1991 to foster the economic transition process and to promote private and entrepreneurial initiatives in its countries of operation including Central and Eastern Europe, former Soviet Union and Eastern Mediterranean, through provision of loans, equity investments, conducting policy dialogue and providing technical cooperation. It has since played a transformative role and gained unique expertise in fostering change in the region and beyond, investing €170 billion in more than 6,400 projects including nearly EUR 3bn in some 70 mining projects across 15 countries. EBRD works very closely with the European Investment Bank ("EIB") and the organisations have made joint public statements to assist in the funding of the energy transition in Europe.

As part of the investment in European Metals, EBRD will be offered the right to maintain its percentage ownership in the Company and we believe that the EBRD will play an important part, both directly and indirectly in the future financing of European Metals and Geomet.

SUCCESSFUL BATTERY GRADE LITHIUM CARBONATE PILOT PROGRAMME

The Company has continued to enhance the project via improvements to recoveries and quality of the potential end product. On 9 November 2023, the Company announced the results of the Lithium Chemical Plant ("LCP") pilot programme, confirming the robustness of the LCP process flow sheet (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 9 November 2023) (Successful Battery-Grade pilot programme for Cinovec Project).

The pilot programme, conducted at ALS Laboratories in Perth, confirmed the industrial viability of the LCP process flowsheet, producing exceptionally clean battery grade lithium carbonate (>99.9%) with single-stage purification (bicarbonation) of crude lithium carbonate. The programme processed ore that was fully-representative in all respects of the run-of-mine for the first seven years of planned mining, including average grade and expected rock-type mix from the bulk mining.

A complete assay table for the piloted battery-grade lithium carbonate comparing the Cinovec product with the global standard YS/T 582-2013 and including assay results for the nine elements commonly controlled for cathode manufacturers which sits outside YS/T 582-2013, is presented in the Company's ASX/AIM release dated 9 November 2023 (Successful Battery-Grade pilot programme for Cinovec Project).

SUCCESSFUL BATTERY GRADE LITHIUM HYDROXIDE ALSO PRODUCED FROM PILOT PROGRAMME

The Company announced the successful production of lithium hydroxide monohydrate from pregnant leach solution manufactured during the larger-scale Cinovec pilot programme referred to above. The pilot programme confirmed the viability of the LCP process flowsheet for the industrial-scale production of either lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide. Crude lithium carbonate from the pilot programme was converted into exceptionally clean battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate at laboratory scale.

The pilot programme processed ore that is fully-representative in all respects of the run-of-mine for the first seven years of mining planned at Cinovec, including average grade and expected rock-type mix from the bulk mining. The Company is particularly pleased with the quality of product. The lithium hydroxide produced was of the highest grade possible and exceptionally clean. This, when combined with the ability to produce either battery-grade lithium carbonate or hydroxide, enables a wider range of off-takers to be engaged with for the Cinovec product.

A complete assay table for the battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate comparing the Cinovec product with the global standard GB/T 26008-2020 is presented in the Company's ASX/AIM release dated 11 April 2024 (Successful Production of Lithium Hydroxide).

extension granted to all exploration licenses

On 29 January 2024, the Company announced the granting of an extension to all four Cinovec Exploration Licences ("the licences"). These licenses fully cover all three granted Preliminary Mining Permits ("PMP's") comprising the Cinovec Project. All four licences have been extended until 31 December 2026. The granting of this extension follows a comprehensive evaluation by the relevant state authorities of results achieved to date in exploring and developing the deposit. Plans for future exploration work, including further resource drilling, and compliance with conditions set by the Czech Ministry of Environment were also assessed. The extension was required as the granted PMP's, whilst conveying the sole and exclusive rights to apply for a Final Mining Permit, do not allow for further drilling until the final mining area is granted. As the Company plans to conduct further metallurgical and measured resource drilling, an extension to the exploration licenses due to expire in December 2023 was sought.

The licences extension applies to the Exploration Areas Cinovec, Cinovec II, Cinovec III and Cinovec IV, which fully cover the East, South and North West PMP's (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 29 January 2024) (Extension Granted to All Cinovec Exploration Licenses).

new plant site EXPECTED TO IMPROVE PERMITTING AND PROJECT ECONOMICS

On 26 April 2024, the Company announced the decision to move the proposed site of the lithium processing plant from Dukla to Prunéřov. The new site was selected for a number of reasons, including the expectation of speeding up the permitting process and expediting the Cinovec Project. The Prunéřov site is anticipated to also enable positive outcomes for project economics including reductions in capex and opex per tonne as a result of optimalization of the engineering identified as part of the Definitive Feasibility Study DFS process, and reduced demolition and clearance requirements (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 26 April 2024) (New Plant Site to Improve Project Permitting and Economics).

The new site has received preliminary agreement and support from the municipal and regional governments. Prunéřov is the site of the former Prunéřov 1 Power Station, which was decommissioned in 2020 and Prunéřov 2 Power Station. The site is owned and operated by CEZ, the Company's project level partner. The site, currently zoned for industrial use, is considerably larger in size than the Dukla site and should enable the processing plant to be laid out in a more effective (and anticipated less costly) manner, enabling better and faster constructability, improved operability and greater ease of maintenance. The ore from the underground mining operation at Cinovec will be carried by conveyor to Dukla where it will be loaded onto trains for transport to Prunéřov, a distance of approximately 59 km using existing rail facilities, the capacity of which has been confirmed. During the DFS process, it became apparent that after considerable consultation with local stakeholders and the municipal and regional governments the Dukla site possessed limited capacity and also limited support from the surrounding municipalities, for the extent of processing operations proposed. The Prunéřov industrial site is located alongside the 750MW Prunéřov 2 Coal fired power plant and is situated further away from inhabited areas.

Regional Project Map

REDOMICILIATION

The Company advised the market that it has been registered as an Australian Company effective 7 May 2024 and lodged a notice of intention to discontinue with the British Virgin Islands registry ("BVI Registry") (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 7 May 2024) (Redomiciliation Update). The Company advised its intention to redomicile in the announcement to the market on 1 December 2023, and the proposed redomiciliation was approved by the Company's Shareholders on 22 December 2023. European Metals is now domiciled in Australia and is a Company governed under the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ("Australian Continuance").

The Board believes that the Australian Continuance should lead to substantial cost savings and improvements in the Company's administration and efficiency of operations. Additionally, it will remove a potential impediment to obtaining European development financial assistance for the Cinovec project. The redomiciliation represented a re-admission to AIM, which was completed shortly after the redomiciliation.

POST PERIOD UPDATE

On 31 July 2024, and post the reporting period, the Company provided a further project update (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 31 July 2024) (Cinovec Lithium Project Update). The Company advised that the timeline for the completion of the DFS and therefore construction of the Cinovec lithium processing plant continue to be worked on. Given the change to the location of the lithium processing plant from Dukla to Prunéřov, additional geotechnical work is currently underway to confirm the optimal construction method and layout at the new site. Results from this geotechnical work are expected to be available at the end of September. DRA is then expected to provide a detailed timeline and begin the DFS finalisation program of work.

The Project team continues to progress several DFS-related programs on the Front-End Comminution and Beneficiation circuit ("FECAB") and LCP to improve the overall flowsheet which are expected to positively impact Project economics.

CORPORATE

The Company announced the appointment of Merrill Gray as a Non-executive Director of the Company on 18 April 2024. Merrill is a highly experienced executive and non-executive of ASX and private companies. Her appointment brings over 30 years of metallurgical and mining engineering as well as geology experience., including large-scale new technology project development and production management skills. Merrill currently works as a global critical minerals and renewable energy (including hydrogen derivatives) corporate advisor, having previously been MD and CEO of Syngas Ltd (Founder), Hexagon Energy Materials Limited (ASX: HXG) and Co-MD of lithium-ion battery recycling Company, Primobius GmbH. She has significant international experience, including within the European Union and specifically with German automotive OEM's. Merrill brings experience and networks across the lithium-ion battery supply chain. Merrill holds Bachelor of Engineering and Bachelor of Science degrees, as well as an MBA, and is a fellow of The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and the Australian Institute of Engineering (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 18 April 2024) (Appointment of Director).

The Company announced the appointment of Henko Vos as Company Secretary on 2 February 2024, following the retirement of Ms Shannon Robinson. Mr Vos is a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors, the Governance Institute of Australia and Chartered Accountants Australia & New Zealand. He holds similar director and secretarial roles in various other listed public companies in both industrial and resource sectors (refer to the Company's ASX/ AIM release dated 2 February 2024) (Company Secretary Appointment/Resignation).

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Group's activities have inherent risk, and the Board is unable to provide certainty of the expected results of activities, or that any or all of the likely activities will be achieved. The material business risks faced by the Group that could influence the Group's future prospects, and how the Group manages these risks, are provided below.

Operational risk

The Company may be affected by various operational factors. In the event that any of these potential risks eventuate, the Company's operational and financial performance may be adversely affected. No assurances can be given that the Company will achieve commercial viability through successful exploration outcomes on its tenement holdings. Until the Company is able to realise value from its projects, it is likely to incur ongoing operating losses.

The operations of the Company may be affected by various factors, including failure to achieve predicted grades during mining, operational and technical difficulties encountered during mining, lack of infrastructure in the Company's areas of operation, unanticipated metallurgical problems which may affect value of defined resources, increases in the costs of consumables, spare parts, plant and equipment.

Mineral Resource estimates are made in accordance with the 2012 edition of the JORC Code. Mineral resources are estimates only. An estimate is an expression of judgement based on knowledge, experience and industry practice. Estimates may alter significantly when new information or techniques become available. Resource estimates can be imprecise and depend on interpretations, which may prove to be inaccurate.

The Company's interests in mining tenements are at various stages of exploration and potential production and potential investors should understand that mineral exploration and production is a speculative and high-risk undertaking that may be impeded by circumstances and factors beyond the control of the Company. The Company has interests in mining tenements in the Czech Republic which operate under different regulatory conditions which may impact on time taken to evaluate projects and may affect the viability of resources.

There can no assurance that the tenements, or any other exploration properties that may be acquired in the future, will result in the exploitation of an economic mineral resource. Even though an apparently viable deposit has been identified, there is no guarantee that it can be economically exploited.

The Company will need to apply for a mining lease to undertake development and mining on the relevant tenement. There is no guarantee that the Company will be granted a mining lease and if it is granted, it will be subject to conditions which may impact on the financial viability of the project.

Renewals

Mining and exploration tenements are subject to periodic renewal. The renewal of the term of granted tenements is subject to compliance with the applicable mining legislation and regulations and the discretion of the relevant mining authority. Renewal conditions may include increased expenditure and work commitments or compulsory relinquishment of areas of the tenements. The imposition of new conditions or the inability to meet those conditions may adversely affect the operations, financial position and/or performance of the Company. The Company considers the likelihood of tenure forfeiture to be low given the laws and regulations governing exploration in the Czech Republic and the ongoing expenditure budgeted for by the Company. However, the consequence of forfeiture or involuntary surrender of a granted tenement for reasons beyond the control of the Company could be significant.

Title

Notwithstanding that the exploration licenses the subject of the Cinovec Project has been granted, if the application for the licenses did not strictly comply with the application requirements (such as were required reports were not lodged or were lodged late), there is a risk that the tenements could be deemed invalid.

Global conditions

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company's potential development activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities. General economic conditions, laws relating to taxation, new legislation, trade barriers, interest and inflation rates, currency exchange controls, national and international political circumstances (including outbreaks in international hostilities, wars, terrorist acts, sabotage, subversive activities, security operations, labour unrest, civil disorder, and states of emergency), natural disasters (including fires, earthquakes and floods), and quarantine restrictions, epidemics and pandemics, may have an adverse effect on the Company's operations and financial performance, including the Company's exploration and development activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

Regulatory compliance

Regulatory risks of the Company's operating activities are subject to extensive laws and regulations relating to numerous matters including resource licence consent, environmental compliance and rehabilitation, taxation, employee relations, health and worker safety, waste disposal, protection of the environment, protection of endangered and protected species and other matters. The Company requires permits from regulatory authorities to authorise the Company's operations. These permits relate to exploration, development, production and rehabilitation activities. While the Company believes that it will operate in substantial compliance with all material current laws and regulations, agreements or changes in their enforcement or regulatory interpretation could result in changes in legal requirements or in the terms of existing permits and agreements applicable to the Company or its properties, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company's current operations or planned activities. Obtaining necessary permits can be a time-consuming process and there is a risk that Company will not obtain these permits on acceptable terms, in a timely manner or at all. The costs and delays associated with obtaining necessary permits and complying with these permits and applicable laws and regulations could materially delay or restrict the Company from proceeding with the development of a project or the operation or development of a mine. Any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations or permits, even if inadvertent, could result in material fines, penalties or other liabilities. In extreme cases, failure could result in suspension of the Company's activities or forfeiture of one or more of the tenements, the subject of the Projects.

Climate

There are a number of climate-related factors that may affect the operations and proposed activities of the Company. The climate change risks particularly attributable to the Company include: (a) the emergence of new or expanded regulations associated with the transitioning to a lower-carbon economy and market changes related to climate change mitigation. The Company may be impacted by changes to local or international compliance regulations related to climate change mitigation efforts, or by specific taxation or penalties for carbon emissions or environmental damage. These examples sit amongst an array of possible restraints on industry that may further impact the Company and its business viability. While the Company will endeavour to manage these risks and limit any consequential impacts, there can be no guarantee that the Company will not be impacted by these occurrences; and (b) climate change may cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the Company, including events such as increased severity of weather patterns and incidence of extreme weather events and longer-term physical risks such as shifting climate patterns. All these risks associated with climate change may significantly change the industry in which the Company operates.

General risks

Future funding requirements and the ability to access debt and equity markets. The funds raised by the Company are considered sufficient to meet the evaluation and development objectives of the Company. Additional funding may be required in the event development costs exceed the Company's estimates and to effectively implement its business and operations plans in the future, to take advantage of opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or other business opportunities, and to meet any unanticipated liabilities or expenses which the Company may incur, additional financing will be required. In addition, should the Company consider that its development results justify commencement of production on any of its projects, additional funding will be required to implement the Company's development plans, the quantum of which, remain unknown at the date of the Annual report. The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing, joint ventures, production sharing arrangements or other means. Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company's activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of development or production on the Company's properties or even loss of a property interest. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to shareholders.

Reliance on key personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment. The Company may not be able to replace its senior management or key personnel with persons of equivalent expertise and experience within a reasonable period of time or at all and the Company may incur additional expenses to recruit, train and retain personnel. Loss of such personnel may also have an adverse effect on the performance of the Company.

Competition

The industry in which the Company will be involved is subject to domestic and global competition. Although the Company will undertake all reasonable due diligence in its business decisions and operations, the Company will have no influence or control over the activities or actions of its competitors, which activities or actions may, positively or negatively, affect the operating and financial performance of the Company's projects and business.

Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company's shares regardless of the Company's operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

(a) general economic outlook;

(b) introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

(d) global health epidemics or pandemics;

(e) currency fluctuations;

(f) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

(g) the demand for, and supply of, capital;

(h) political tensions; and

(i) terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of shares can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general and resource exploration stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company. Potential investors should be aware that there are risks associated with any securities investment. Securities listed on the stock market, and in particular securities of exploration companies experience extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies. These factors may materially affect the market price of the shares regardless of the Company's performance. In addition, after the end of the relevant escrow periods affecting shares in the Company, a significant sale of then tradeable shares (or the market perception that such a sale might occur) could have an adverse effect on the Company's share price.

Commodity price volatility and exchange rate

If the Company achieves success leading to mineral production, the revenue it will derive through the sale of product exposes the potential income of the Company to commodity price and exchange rate risks. Commodity prices fluctuate and are affected by many factors beyond the control of the Company. Such factors include supply and demand fluctuations for precious and base metals, technological advancements, forward selling activities and other macro-economic factors. Furthermore, international prices of various commodities are denominated in United States dollars, whereas the income and expenditure of the Company will be taken into account in Australian currency, exposing the Company to the fluctuations and volatility of the rate of exchange between the United States dollar and the Australian dollar as determined in international markets.

Government policy changes

Adverse changes in government policies or legislation may affect ownership of mineral interests, taxation, royalties, land access, labour relations, and mining and exploration activities of the Company. It is possible that the current system of exploration and mine permitting in the Czech Republic may change, resulting in impairment of rights and possibly expropriation of the Company's properties without adequate compensation.

Dilution

In the future, the Company may elect to issue shares or engage in capital raisings to fund construction of the Project and growth, for investments or acquisitions that the Company may decide to undertake, to repay debt or for any other reason the Board may determine at the relevant time. While the Company will be subject to the constraints of the ASX Listing Rules regarding the percentage of its capital that it is able to issue within a 12-month period (other than where exceptions apply), shareholder interests may be diluted as a result of such issues of shares or other securities.

Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of shares will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring shares from a taxation viewpoint and generally. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisers accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for shares under any prospectus.

Litigation

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including, tenure disputes, environmental claims, occupational health and safety claims and employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may impact adversely on the Company's operations, reputation, financial performance and financial position. The Company is not currently engaged in any litigation.

Environmental regulation

The operations and proposed activities of the Company are subject to Czech laws and regulations concerning the environment. As with most exploration projects and mining operations, the Company's activities are expected to have an impact on the environment, particularly if advanced exploration or mine development proceeds. It is the Company's intention to conduct its activities to the highest standard of environmental obligation, including compliance with all environmental laws.

Mining operations have inherent risks and liabilities associated with safety and damage to the environment and the disposal of waste products occurring as a result of mineral exploration and production. The occurrence of any such safety or environmental incident could delay production or increase production costs. Events, such as unpredictable rainfall or bushfires may impact on the Company's ongoing compliance with environmental legislation, regulations, and licences. Significant liabilities could be imposed on the Company for damages, clean-up costs or penalties in the event of certain discharges into the environment, environmental damage caused by previous operations or non-compliance with environmental laws or regulations.

The disposal of mining and process waste and mine water discharge are under constant legislative scrutiny and regulation. There is a risk that environmental laws and regulations become more onerous making the Company's operations more expensive.

Approvals are required for land clearing and for ground disturbing activities. Delays in obtaining such approvals can result in the delay to anticipated exploration programs or mining activities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of preparation

These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of European Metals Holdings Limited ("EMHL" or "the Company") and its Controlled Entities (the "Consolidated Group" or "Group").

The consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Boards (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

The accounting policies detailed below have been adopted in the preparation of the financial report. Except for cash flow information, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical cost, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair values of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.

The Company is a listed public company, incorporated in Australia. The Company was previously incorporated in the British Virgin Islands however redomiciled on 7 May 2024.

(i) New and Revised Accounting Standards Adopted by the Group

The Group has adopted all the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ("AASB") that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

New and revised Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods

Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations would not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the Group.

There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting period and on foreseeable future transactions.

(ii) Statement of Compliance

Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in the financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB.

(iii) Financial Position

The Directors have prepared the consolidated financial statements on going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

At 30 June 2024, the Group comprising the Company and its subsidiaries has incurred a loss for the year amounting to $3,355,576 (2023: loss of $5,928,441). The Group has a net working capital surplus of $4,439,972 (2023: surplus of $2,624,525) and cash and cash equivalents of $4,727,375 (2023: $8,892,951).

The Directors have prepared a cash flow forecast, which indicates that the Company will have sufficient cash flows to meet all commitments and working capital requirements for the 12-month period from the date of signing this financial report.

Based on the cash flow forecasts, the Directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(iv) Critical accounting estimates and judgements

The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Share-based payment transactions

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees and consultants by reference to the estimated fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. These are expensed over the estimated vesting periods. Judgement has been exercised on the probability and timing of achieving milestones related to performance rights granted to Directors.

Recognition of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses have not been recognised as the Directors are of the opinion that it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax assets can be utilised.

Investment in associate

Control exists where the parent entity is exposed or has the rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. Power over the investee exists when it has existing rights to direct the relevant activities of the investee which are those which significantly affect the investee's returns. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. Significant influence exists if the Group holds 20% or more of the voting power of an investee and has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entity.

Judgements are required by the Group to consider the existence of control, joint control or significant influence over an investee. The Group has considered its investment in Geomet concluding the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. Control and joint control do not exist as the Group does not direct and does not have the power to direct the relevant activities of Geomet, this lies with the Geomet board, of which there are only 2 directors out of 5 in common with the Group, and Geomet CEO and CFO who are employed and work directly for Geomet.

(b) Income Tax

Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date. Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority.

Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available. No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(b) Income Tax (continued)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date. Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability.

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled, and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future.

Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.

At the end of each reporting period the Group assesses whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

An assessment is also made at each reporting period as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years.

Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(d) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.

(e) Revenue

Interest

Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.

Services Revenue

Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the Group: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised.

(f) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST.

Cash flows are presented in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.

(g) Financial Instruments

Recognition, initial measurement and derecognition

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transaction costs, except for those carried at 'fair value through profit or loss', in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine the fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.

Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the receivables do not contain significant financing component in accordance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred. A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(g) Financial Instruments (continued)

Classification and measurement

Financial assets

Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:

· amortised cost;

· fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI); and

· fair value through profit or loss (FVPL).

Classifications are determined by both:

· the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets; and

· the Group's business model for managing the financial asset.

Financial assets at amortised cost

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet with the following conditions (and are not designated as FVPL);

· they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows; and

· the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

For debt instruments at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost. The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI.

After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

The Group measures debt instruments at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met:

· the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding; and

· the financial asset is held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling the financial asset.

Upon initial recognition, the Group can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI when they meet the definition of equity under AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation and are not held for trading.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term.

For trade receivables and advance to associate, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating expected credit losses ('ECLs). Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECLs at each reporting date.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(g) Financial Instruments (continued)

Financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.

Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.

Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss.

All interest-related charges and, if applicable, gains and losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.

(h) Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. Operating segments' results are reviewed by the Group's Executive Chairman to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

(i) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent European Metals Holdings Limited and all of the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it 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 over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 22.

The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group.

Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as "non-controlling interests". The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income.

(j) Share based payments

The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that do not meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

NOTE 1: STATEMENT OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(j) Share based payments

Loan shares are treated similar to options and value is an estimate calculated using an appropriate mathematical formula based on Black-Scholes option pricing model. The choice of models and the resultant Loan share value require assumptions to be made in relation to the likelihood and timing of the vesting of the Loan shares and the value and volatility of the price of the underlying shares.

(k) Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances

Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each of the Group's entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency.

Transaction 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 recognised in Profit or Loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in Profit or Loss.

Group companies

The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group's presentation currency are translated as follows:

· Assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period;

· Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and

· Retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations recognised in the other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the Statement of Financial Position. These differences are reclassified into Profit or Loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.

(l) Investments in associates

Associates are entities over which the consolidated entity has significant influence but not control or joint control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the associate is recognised in profit or loss and the share of the movements in equity is recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in associates are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the consolidated entity's share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to the associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. Dividends received or receivable from associates reduce the carrying amount of the investment.

When the consolidated entity's share of losses in an associate equal or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any unsecured long-term receivables, the consolidated entity does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

The consolidated entity discontinues the use of the equity method upon the loss of significant influence over the associate and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the associate's carrying amount, fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.

Correction of error

On 28 April 2020, the Company announced the investment of EUR 29,100,000 (circa A$ 48,850,092) by CEZ a.s. ("CEZ") for a 51% equity interest in Geomet, the Company's wholly owned Czech subsidiary at the time, and holder of the Cinovec licenses, had been completed. The Company ceased to fully consolidate Geomet's results within EMH's consolidated accounts effective from this date and commenced equity accounting its investment in Geomet, as an associate.

At 30 June 2020, the Company inadvertently recognised its portion of that period's share of Geomet's loss as a profit, resulting in a misstatement of the investment in associate's carrying value. In May 2023, the Company agreed to a further investment of $5,627,057 million (circa EUR 3,432,217) to maintain its 49% shareholding. The Company inadvertently neglected to provide for this obligation as a payable at 30 June 2023, and accordingly also understated its investment by this amount. The balance was subsequently settled on 7 July 2023. The Company also noted that historical balances were converted directly from CZK to AUD, where they should have been converted into GBP as the functional currency of the holding company. The noted errors have, in turn, had a resultant impact on the exchange difference on translating the investment since its acquisition.

Extracts (being only those line items affected) are disclosed below.

NOTE 2: DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on 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; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.

Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximising the use of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use of unobservable inputs.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data.

NOTE 2: DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES (CONTINUED)

Share-based payment transactions

The fair value of the employee share options is measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining the fair value.

The fair value of consultant share options is measured at the fee for the services received, except for when the fair value of the services cannot be estimated reliably, in which case the fair value is measured using the Black-Scholes formula.

The fair value of performance rights granted to Directors is measured using the share price at grant date. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining the fair value.

(d) Loan shares reserve

Employee securities incentive plan

In prior years, remuneration in the form of an employee securities incentive plan was issued to the Directors and employees to attract, motivate and retain such persons and to provide them with an incentive to deliver growth and value to shareholders.

The loan shares reserve records the fair value of the loan shares issued.

The loan shares represent an option arrangement. Loan shares vested immediately. The key terms of the employee share plan and of each limited recourse loan provided under the plan are as follows:

i. The total loan equal to issue price multiplied by the number of plan shares/shares applied for ("the Advance"), which shall be deemed to have been drawn down at settlement upon issued of the loan shares.

ii. The loan shall be interest free. However, if the advance is not repaid on or before the repayment date, the Advance will accrue interest at the rate disclosed in the plan from the business day after the repayment date until the date the Advance is repaid in full.

iii. All or part of the loan may be repaid prior to the Advance repayment Date.

NOTE 20: OPERATING SEGMENTS

The accounting policies used by the Group in reporting segments are in accordance with the measurement principles of Australian Accounting Standards.

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are provided to the Board of Directors. According to AASB 8 Operating Segments, two or more operating segments may be aggregated into a single operating segment if the segments have similar economic characteristics, and the segments are similar in each of the following respects:

• The nature of the products and services;

• The nature of the production processes;

• The type or class of customer for their products and services;

• The methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and

• If applicable, the nature of the regulatory environment, for example; banking, insurance and public utilities.

Effective 28 April 2020, the Group has a 49% interest in Geomet s.r.o. which is accounted for in accordance with AASB 128 Investment in Associates and Joint Venture. Therefore, the Group has only one operating segment based on geographical location. The Australian segment incorporates the services provided to Geomet s.r.o. in relation to the Cinovec project development along with head office and treasury function. Consequently, the financial information for the sole operating segment is identical to the information presented in these financial reports.

NOTE 21: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, loans to associated company, leases and accounts receivable and payable. The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for Group's operations. The Group does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.

The Group holds the following financial instruments:

	2024	2023
	$	$
Financial assets
Cash	4,727,375	8,892,951
Trade and other receivables	391,942	200,706

Total financial assets	524,037	859,752

The fair value of the Group's financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying value.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk) credit risk and liquidity risk.

(i) Market risk

The Board meets on a regular basis to analyse currency and interest rate exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.

Interest rate risk

Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments. Interest rate risk is not material to the Group as no interest-bearing debt arrangements have been entered into.

Price risk

Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Group is not exposed to significant price risk.

Foreign exchange risk

Exposure to foreign exchange 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 Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.

With instruments being held by overseas operations, fluctuations in foreign currencies may impact on the Group's financial results. The Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk is monitored by the Board. The majority of the Group's funds are held in Australian dollars, British Sterling and the Euro.

NOTE 21: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

(ii) Market risk (continued)

Foreign exchange risk (continued)

At 30 June 2024, the Group has financial assets and liabilities denominated in the foreign currencies detailed below:

	2024			2023
	Amount in EUR	Amount in GBP	Amount in USD	Amount in EUR	Amount in GBP	Amount in USD
Cash and cash equivalents in EMH	2,080,365	48,100	-	2,018,189	48,287	-
Trade and other payables in EMH	35,000	19,693	5,882	6,300	12,909	3,901

Other than intercompany balances there were no financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies for EMH UK.

(ii) Credit risk

Credit exposure represents the extent of credit related losses that the Group may be subject to on amounts to be received from financial assets. Credit risk arises principally from trade and other receivables. The objective of the Group is to minimise the risk of loss from credit risk. The Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is insignificant. The Group's maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the carrying value of its financial assets as indicated on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and notes to the consolidated financial statements.

The credit quality of the financial assets was high during the year. The table below details the credit quality of the financial assets at the end of the year:

		2024	2023
Financial assets	Credit Quality	$	$
Cash and cash equivalents held at Westpac Bank	High	2,456,825	2,045,240

		13,615,418	17,595,380

NOTE 21: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

(iii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The objective of the Group is to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet commitments under normal and stressed conditions.

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. The Group aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by maintaining adequate reserves of liquidity.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial assets and financial liabilities, including estimated interest receipts and payments and excluding the impact of netting arrangements.

NOTE 21: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

(iii) Interest rate risk

From time to time the Group has significant interest-bearing assets, but they are as a result of the timing of equity raising and capital expenditure rather than a reliance on interest income. The interest rate risk arises on the rise and fall of interest rates. The Group's exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument's value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rate for each class of financial assets and financial liabilities comprises:
