New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: AU$138.1m (US$97.3m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$26m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (22% average weekly change). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (AU$13m net loss in 2 years). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$138.1m market cap, or US$97.3m).

New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Australian stocks, typically moving 14% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (AU$22m net loss in 2 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (18% increase in shares outstanding).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 17% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (AU$15m net loss in 3 years).

Calix Limited Receives Funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency and from Germany's Federal Ministry of Education and Research Calix Limited announced that the Solar Methanol Project (the Project), of which it is a consortium member, has been awarded funding to develop the production of sustainable fuels from captured process CO2 emissions. As announced by the Hon Chris Bowen MP, Minister for Climate Change and Energy on 27 January, the "HyGATE" Solar Methanol Project has been awarded AUD 19.48 million from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and 13.2 million (AUD 20.19 million) from Germany's Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) to develop a world-first green methanol demonstration plant in Port Augusta, South Australia. The Solar Methanol Project Exporting green hydrogen produced in Australia to Germany offers the promise of leveraging Australia's abundant renewable energy resources to help the decarbonisation of German industry. Methanol is a versatile hydrogen derivative and has the potential to act as an effective green hydrogen carrier. Its clean and economical synthesis could help enable the decarbonisation of hard-to-abate transport sectors such as aviation and shipping. In addition to Calix, the Solar Methanol Project consortium includes Australian cleantech company Vast Solar and leading engineering and consultancy firm Fichtner, and is supported by the Australian Solar Thermal Institute. The Project aims to integrate several innovative low emission technologies to source renewable power and process heat, green hydrogen electrolysis, and, with Calix's Leilac technology, renewably powered electric calcination of limestone and the efficient capture of unavoidable process CO2 emissions. The Project intends to renewably power a 10MW electrolyser to produce green hydrogen, and a lime plant that produces CO2 as an unavoidable process emission. The clean energy, hydrogen and CO 2 will then be used to synthesise up to 7,500 tonnes per year of green methanol to be developed for use as a sustainable transport fuel. The Project aims to be a catalyst for a solar methanol industry in Australia, with the potential to significantly scale domestic green fuel use as well as potential exports to Germany and other global markets.

Australian Renewable Energy Agency Awards Grant to Calix Limited Calix Limited announced it has been awarded a $947,035 grant by the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) to help fund a Basis of Design (BOD) and Front-End Engineering and Design (FEED) study for a renewably powered demonstration plant for its Zero Emissions Steel TechnologY (ZESTY). The $947,035 grant from ARENA will provide approximately 48% of the funding for an eleven-month study for a 30,000 tonne per annum ZESTY-iron demonstration plant. The proposed renewably powered ZESTY-iron plant will produce green hydrogen for the direct reduction of iron ore to sponge iron. With no carbon involved throughout the process, the proposed ZESTY reactor will demonstrate a new approach to zero emissions iron and steel. Calix's ZESTY demonstration plant will also be compatible with intermittent operation, enabling economical use of low cost renewable power and will be compatible with load balancing applications for the energy grid. The project will cover both the BOD and the FEED study required to determine the final location, specification and cost of the demonstration plant before a Final Investment Decision is taken. The project will also further establish key partnerships in industry across the hydrogen, iron ore and renewables sectors, in addition to possible end users of green iron through the Heavy Industry Low-carbon Transition Cooperative Research Centre (HILT CRC), facilitating knowledge sharing and the ongoing development of an ecosystem for sustainable heavy industry in Australia.

Pilbara Minerals and Calix Announces $20 Million Australian Government Modern Manufacturing Initiative Grant Awarded Pilbara Minerals and Calix announced the award of a $20 million grant under the Australian Government's Modern Manufacturing Initiative (MMI) - Manufacturing Translation Stream, towards the development of the Mid-Stream Project at the Pilgangoora Project. The MMI grant represents a significant step forward in the progression of the Mid-Stream Project, which will be used as part of a proposed Joint Venture to be entered between the Parties to support the design, procurement, construction, and commissioning of the Mid-Stream Project Demonstration Plant (Demonstration Plant). Following execution of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in May 2021 between Pilbara Minerals and Calix, a scoping study (Scoping Study) has recently been completed by Lycopodium Minerals in conjunction with the Pilbara Minerals and Calix teams. The purpose of the Scoping Study was to assess the technical viability of developing a demonstration scale chemicals facility at the Pilgangoora Project to produce lithium salts from fines flotation spodumene concentrate produced at the Pilgangoora Project, thereby supporting a potential pathway towards future commercial production of "value-added" lithium products at the Pilgangoora Project and globally. The lithium-ion battery supply market is rapidly evolving with large scale development occurring through all segments of the supply chain. Several prominent themes are shaping the industry including product cost (per lithia unit), product quality (purity), carbon energy reduction and waste management (particularly for the European market). The objective of the Mid-Stream Project is to deliver a superior "value-added" lithium raw material that outperforms across the key metrics of product cost, quality, carbon energy reduction and waste reduction/handling. Works undertaken to date have explored alternative solutions to achieve these aims, including reviewing and testing alternate process paths, equipment selection and end-product types. The Scoping Study supported the technical viability of the Mid-Stream Project at a Scoping Study level to deploy an innovative calcination technology owned by Calix which is proposed to be integrated into a chemical concentration process at the Pilgangoora Project to produce a new end product, with the current focus being a lithium phosphate salt as a key "value-added" product for global distribution.

Pilbara Minerals Limited and Calix Limited Reports on Initiatives to Develop Value-Added Lithium Products At Pilbara Minerals' 100% Owned Pilgangoora Project Pilbara Minerals Limited and Calix Limited further reported on initiatives to develop value-added lithium products at Pilbara Minerals' 100% owned Pilgangoora Project. Following execution of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in May 2021 between Pilbara Minerals and Calix, a Scoping Study for a Mid-Stream Product Demonstration Plant ("Scoping Study") commenced, which is nearing completion. The Scoping Study aims to support the development of a Demonstration Plant at the Pilgangoora Project ("Pilgangoora") to produce lithium salts from fines-flotation spodumene concentrate, supporting a pathway towards potential future commercial production of value-added lithium products at Pilgangoora. The Scoping Study (undertaken by Lycopodium Minerals in conjunction with the Pilbara Minerals and Calix teams) is assessing the potential development of a new refining process to produce high purity lithium phosphate precipitate from Calix-calcined fines spodumene concentrate supplied from the Pilgangoora Project. This concentrated lithium salt from the Pilgangoora Project ("Mid-Stream Product"), could support downstream lithium raw material and cathodes demand. Technical work contributing to the Scoping Study (including testwork, process design and engineering) is now complete. Completion of the commercial and economic evaluation contributing to the Scoping Study is expected early in the New Year, following which a final review of the results will be undertaken by the boards of Pilbara Minerals and Calix with results released shortly thereafter. Subject to the results being commercially and technically satisfactory to both Pilbara Minerals and Calix, in accordance with the MOU the parties will then progress negotiations for the formation of a joint venture and agree a work program to develop a Demonstration Plant at the Pilgangoora Project and ultimately seek to commercialise the Mid-Stream Product's process technology in respect of lithium phosphate applications on a worldwide basis. The lithium-ion supply chain is rapidly evolving with large scale development occurring through all segments of the supply chain. Several prominent forces are shaping the industry including product cost (per lithia unit), product quality (purity), carbon energy reduction and waste management (particularly for the European market). Pilbara Minerals Mid-Stream Project objective is to deliver a superior value-added lithia product that exceeds across these metrics of product cost, quality, carbon energy reduction and waste reduction/handling. The project work to date has comprised exploring alternate solutions to achieve these aims, including reviewing and testing alternate process paths, equipment selection and end- product types. The project has now been narrowed down to a preferred process route and end-product. The process route under investigation is unique in the use of both the calcination processing technology and chemical concentration process. Although the project is in its early development phase, the test work and engineering to date which has contributed to the initial Scoping Study provides strong indications that the new mid-stream product (and process path) can be expected to deliver on the desired metrics of an improved value-added lithia product. In particular through a reduction in carbon energy intensity, reduction in shipped volumes (through higher concentration product) and providing a more easily handled product. The metrics of product production cost and quality will however need to be further assessed as the project moves through the subsequent phases of study and further development. Australian spodumene is a raw material feed to a high-value chemical industry that is largely conducted outside of Australia. Producing a high lithium-content intermediate salt product on site at Pilgangoora, will result in a portion of the value traditionally retained by downstream spodumene converters outside of Australia being retained in-country. The value-added Mid-Stream product is also expected to be able to access diverse markets worldwide. Pilbara Minerals together with Lycopodium Minerals embarked on a testwork programme to develop a flowsheet to produce a lithium phosphate salt. The testwork programme was initiated by using a produced synthetic lithium sulphate leach solution to produce small quantities of lithium phosphate precipitate. Subsequent testwork phases further developed the flowsheet to produce high purity lithium phosphate precipitates from Calix-calcined Pilgangoora spodumene concentrate. Following laboratory scale testwork, lithium phosphate has been selected as the preferred product, having demonstrated superior performance to other alternatives evaluated to date. Other forms of lithium salts will continue to be considered for potential process optimization in future study works. Flowsheet test work to-date has demonstrated >90% overall lithium recovery to final high purity lithium phosphate product. Pilbara Minerals' mid-stream project development is expected to be progressed utilizing unallocated spodumene concentrate production capacity available from the Pilgangoora Project over time, without disrupting existing customer offtake arrangements, including the POSCO and Pilbara Minerals downstream joint venture.
