New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: AU$68.3m (US$47.9m) 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (29% average weekly change). Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (33% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$197k revenue, or US$138k).

Lotus Resources Faces Production Setbacks and Data Challenges at Kayelekera Uranium Mine Lotus Resources reported operational issues and a slower-than-expected ramp-up at its Kayelekera uranium mine in Malawi in the March quarter.
The company retracted previously reported grade and recovery figures while it reconciles data, raising questions about the reliability of earlier production metrics.
Management highlighted fixed-price contracts with North American utilities and a supportive uranium market as key supports while it works to stabilise operations.
For you as an investor, the immediate focus is on execution at Kayelekera. Slower ramp-up, supply chain challenges and the need to restate grade and recovery data point to practical and reporting hurdles that can affect confidence. Management is pointing to improvements in mining activity, processing infrastructure and reagent supply as the levers it is using to lift throughput, but progress here will likely be judged quarter by quarter.
On the revenue side, fixed-price contracts with North American utilities provide some visibility and reduce exposure to short-term uranium price moves. At the same time, commentary around global uranium markets references demand from nuclear energy as a supportive backdrop. When assessing Lotus, you may want to weigh the benefits of contract-backed sales and a supportive commodity backdrop against the operational risks and data-quality issues flagged in the latest update.

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 32% This is considered a major 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: Major Risks Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (32% increase in shares outstanding).

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 15% 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: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$197k revenue, or US$137k).

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: AU$3.2m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$102k revenue, or US$67k).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.3% 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: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$8.9m free cash flow).

Lotus Resources Limited Completes Second Stage of its Preliminary Exploration Work at its Milenje Rare Earth Prospect Lotus Resources Limited announced that the company has completed the second stage of its preliminary exploration work at the company's Milenje Rare Earth Prospect (Milenje), located 2km from the company's Kayelekera Uranium Project (Kayelekera). While the Company remains firmly focused on the recommencement of uranium production at Kayelekera, the rare earth grades at Milenje are highly promising and as such the Company is considering undertaking an exploration program at Milenje during 2023 to better understand the potential for rare earth mineralization at the prospect. Highlights: The Company completed its second exploration program at the Milenje Hills Rare Earth Prospect, with work focusing on further trench sampling, an RC drill program and preliminary mineralogy studies. The new samples from the trenching program confirmed high-grade rare earth elements (REE) including: Total Rare Earth Oxides (TREO) of up to 25.5%, Average TREOs 11.6% from the 11 samples, Critical REO of up to 5.6% (Dy, Eu, Nd, Pr, Tb, Y oxides) and average 2.48% across the 11 Samples. The RC drill program intercepted several anomalous zones of gneisses which, though showing some elevated REE mineralization, were lower than the surface (trench) samples. Further structural mapping and interpretation is required to better understand the mineralization controls. A follow up exploration program is being considered at Milenje for the 2023 field season. Milenje Hills REO Prospect: The Milenje Hills prospect is located 2km to the north of Lotus's Kayelekera deposit in the Karonga region of northern Malawi. The Milenje Hills prospect was first identified through ground surveys and mapping in 2014 whilst the previous owners of the asset were undertaking an exploration program for uranium mineralization adjacent to the Kayelekera uranium resource. Previous Exploration: Lotus followed up on this historical work with a geophysical and trenching program in late 2020. The 2020 program of work comprised of additional radiometric and magnetometer surveys with mapping undertaken to define the extent of the rare earth oxide (REO) and rutile mineralization (allanite and rutile bearing rocks) and to characterize the host rock in terms of mineralogy and chemistry. Based on this work 23 pits and trenches were then excavated, logged and sampled at one metre spacings. The hand-dug trenches were excavated over three main lithologies: microgranites, pegmatitic granites, biotite granite gneisses. The mineralization is interpreted as being associated with allanite-rich pegmatite dykes and associated fluid alteration within associated granitoids. Importantly, the rare-earth assemblage identified includes significant portions of the high-value critical REOs of Neodymium (Nd), Europium (Eu), Terbium (Tb), Dysprosium (Dy), Yttrium (Y), and Praseodymium (Pr): up to 3.4% across all samples. Of this, Neodymium and Praseodymium oxides represent on average ~20% of the TREO content of the assayed samples. These two elements, along with Dy and Tb are essential for the manufacture of permanent magnetics which make-up ~90% of the value of the REO market. 2022 Trench Sampling & Mineralogy: Eleven of the previously excavated trenches were selected for further assaying and mineralogical studies. Two of the trenches sampled were excavated in the microgranites (MTR16 and 17) and four trenches were cut across the pegmatitic granites (MTR24A & B, 25A and 26). The remaining trenches were excavated in predominantly biotite granite gneisses. The samples from the eleven trenches were analyzed by ALS Laboratory Edenvale, Johannesburg using the XRF analytical method to confirm REO grades. RC Drilling: An RC drill program consisting of a total of 15 RC holes for 2,035m was completed. The drilling was initially planned to intersect mineralization directly below the respective trench targets. However, due to very mountainous terrain it was not possible to place the drilling safely in the optimum locations. Thus, the initial drilling was re-designed to test for down-dip extensions to the nearest point at which a rig could be placed. Samples were collected at 1m intervals and were analyzed by ALS Laboratory Edenvale, Johannesburg using XRF. Although no high-grade results were obtained, several zones that are anomalous in rare earth mineralization were intersected. The current interpretation of the combined trench and drilling results suggests that mineralization may be associated with steeper oriented structures with a broadly south-west dipping units of alternating pegmatite, microgranite, and biotite gneiss. 공고 • Oct 08

Lotus Resources Limited Announces Greenfield Drill Program at Chilumba Hits Mineralisation Lotus Resources Limited announced that the inaugural greenfield exploration drill program at the Chilumba Prospect in Malawi has intercepted uranium mineralisation. The Company's southern project area, including Livingstonia (4.8Mlbs U3O8) and Chilumba, has historically been poorly explored. The Company believes this area has strong long-term potential to contain additional uranium mineralisation that could be the basis for a future satellite operation. HIGHLIGHTS: The inaugural greenfield exploration drill program at the Chilumba Prospect, 8km from the Livingstonia deposit, has successfully intercepted uranium mineralisation The assay results from the 7-hole (1,140m) RC exploratory drill program include: 3m at 382 ppm U3O8 from 43m (CH002). 3m at 138 ppm U3O8 from 38m (CH002). The exploration program was designed to test surface radiometric anomalies that had been detected through an aerial program and were responsible for identifying the Livingstonia mineralisation. This is the first ever drill program completed at this prospect These preliminary results, in addition to the nearby Livingstonia deposit, highlight the potential for additional uranium discoveries at the Company's regional targets Additional exploration work at these regional targets will be completed in the future INAUGURAL CHILUMBA RC DRILLING PROGRAM: The Chilumba Prospect lies within the Chilumba exploration tenement (EL418) which is located in northern Malawi, approximately 80km southeast of the Company's Kayelekera Uranium Mine. Combined with the Company's Livingstonia tenements, this covers 300km2. In early 2022, Lotus commenced an inaugural exploration drill program at Chilumba. The program consisted of 1,140 metres of drilling in 7 reverse circulation (RC) holes (3 vertical and 4 angled) that were designed to test surface radiometric anomalism that had been identified by previous explorers. The drilling was carried out by Thompson Drilling Lda (Mozambique) with downhole radiometric (gamma) logging undertaken by experienced local contractors under the supervision of Lotus geologists. Selected mineralised intervals were analysed for uranium by ALS Laboratories in Johannesburg. The best results were from drillhole CH002 located to the northwest sector of the prospect which intersected a 12m thick anomalous zone from 38m to 46m. Two separate zones within the interval, including 3m grading 382 ppm U3O8 from 43m, were identified. Drillholes CH001 and CH003, which both intersected anomalous uranium mineralisation, appear to be located peripheral to an interpreted north-westerly tending channel or NE-SW Fault zone. ADDITIONAL WORK PROGRAM: The Company is currently reviewing the opportunity to undertake additional drilling at Livingstonia to follow up on high grade trends identified in that program. At the same time a program to further delineate the Chilumba mineralisation by following up on the interpreted north-westerly tending channel will be considered. Price Target Changed • Sep 09

Lotus Resources Limited Announces Resource Increases to 51.1Mlbs U3o8 Following Inaugural Resource At Livingstonia Uranium Deposit Lotus Resources Limited announced the inaugural Mineral Resource estimate (MRE) for the Livingstonia Uranium deposit of 6.9Mt at 320 ppm U3O8. This increases the total global MRE for the Company in Malawi to 51.1Mlbs U3O8. The MRE has been reported above a cut-off grade of 200ppm U3O8 reflecting estimated processing costs and recoveries as well as projected product pricing Using the historic resource reporting cut-off of 150ppm, the updated MRE reports a total 6.5Mlbs U3O8 which represents an increase of 0.5Mlbs U3O8 from the historic numbers (ASX announcement 14 October 2021). The geology of the area comprises a westerly dipping series of interbedded Karoo mudstones andarkoses/sandstones (Table 2). Uranium mineralisation follows a north-westerly trending channel system that is developed within the K3, K4 and K5 stratigraphic units. The MRE is defined by a total of 12,113m of drilling completed in 102 vertical drillholes (Appendix 1, Figure 3). Of this total 9,903m (82 holes) were completed between 2007 and 2011 by the previous owners, Globe Uranium Limited ("Globe") and Resource Star Ltd. In 2021, Lotus completed an additional 20 holes for 2,210m within and adjacent to the resource. The most recent program targeted extensions of the known mineralisation and confirmation of existing drilling. The majority of drillholes within the mineral resource estimate used reverse circulation drilling techniques with drill recoveries reported to be good. The central portion of the deposit is drilled on a variable grid due to drill site access issues, with drill distances ranging from 50m to 300m east-west and 50m to 200m north-south. The grid separation expands away from the centre of the deposit area. All drilling was vertical with a range between 70m and 170m and an average length of 120m. The principal sampling method for all drilling completed has been by downhole geophysical gamma logging. Data was acquired on the way up at a 2.5m/min speed and at a frequency of 5cm. Data was collected using either a Century Geophysical probe or Auslog slimline total count gamma probe with data for the most recent drilling processed by Lotus. The majority of holes were logged open-hole following withdrawal of the drilling rods. For the early Globe drilling, the entire drill hole was also sampled for assay with later drilling only sampling mineralised intervals definedby either examination of the downhole logs or hand-held scintillometers. The drilling in this announcement relies on assays and downhole gamma data from calibrated probes which were converted into equivalent uranium values (eU3O8) by experienced personnel and then confirmed by a competent person (geophysics). The final mineral resource dataset has been factored for disequilibrium identified by comparing downhole gamma results and geochemical assays. For the most recent drilling mineralised intervals, defined by a 200ppm eU3O8 cut off over a minimum thickness of 1m, were selected for sampling. These samples were analysed for uranium by ALS Laboratories in Johannesburg using pressed powder XRF. Sampling during historical drilling programs was either the entire hole (early) or intervals selected based on radiometric response (later) and utilised an aqua regia digest with either an ICP-OES or MS finish at either ACME Laboratories in Vancouver or Genalysis in Perth. Gamma probes were historically calibrated at either the facility in Adelaide (Australia), Pelindaba (South Africa) and more recently at the nearby Kayelekera Minesite. Sensitivity checks were routinely performed on the probes to confirm correct operation. Gamma data (as counts per second) from calibrated probes are converted into equivalent uranium values (eU3O8) using appropriate calibration factor (K factor) and all other applicable correction factors (probe dead times, water, hole diameter and disequilibrium).

Lotus Resources Limited Announces the Results of the Reverse Circulation Drilling Program At Its Livingstonia Prospect Lotus Resources Limited announced the results of the reverse circulation (RC) drilling program at its Livingstonia prospect, located approximately 90km from the Kayelekera uranium mine (Kayelekera or the Project) in Malawi. Whilst not part of the current Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), Livingstonia has the potential to become a satellite deposit in the future. The Livingstonia exploration tenements are located in northern Malawi, approximately 90km southeast of the company's Kayelekera uranium mine. Combined with the company's Chilumba tenements, this region covers 300km. In December 2021, the company commenced its inaugural uranium exploration drill program at Livingstonia. The program consisted of 3,395 metres in 29 vertical RC drill holes, targeting areas both within and peripheral to the existing Mineral Resource to test the margins of the resource estimate for further extensions. The drilling was caried out by Thompson Drilling Lda (Mozambique) with downhole radiometric (gamma) logging undertaken by experienced local contractors under the supervision of Lotus geologists. Selected mineralized intervals were analysed for uranium by ALS Laboratories in Johannesburg. The focus of the RC program was on the northern margins and north-eastern extensions of the known mineralized trend. The holes completed in these locations were designed to either define extensional mineralization or increase the confidence in the existing resource classification. The best results of 4m grading 983 ppm U3O8 and 4m grading 636ppm U3O8 are located to the north of the existing resource limits and extend the previous resource limits by up to 250m. Several holes were completed within the existing resource limits in order to validate the historic resource. Following these results, the Company intends to prepare an updated Mineral Resource estimate, which is anticipated to be completed during second quarter 2022. Price Target Changed • Feb 17

Lotus Resources Limited Announces Kayelekera Mineral Resource Increases by 23% Lotus Resources Limited announce the Mineral Resource Estimate for the Kayelekera Uranium mine in Malawi has increased to 46.3Mlbs at 500 ppm U3O8. This is a 23% increase compared to the previous MRE. The updated MRE will form the basis of a revised mine plan to be incorporated in the Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), that remains on track for mid-2022. Whilst a portion of the updated MRE is a result of the recent exploration success at the Kayelekera Project, the majority of material was included due to decreasing the cut-off grade from 300ppm to 200ppm. They are comfortable with this revised cut-off grade given the success to date from ore sorting test work on material from the Project, as well as the continuing strengthening of fundamentals for the sector, including higher uranium prices. 공고 • Jan 27
Lotus Resources Limited Announces A 35-Hole RC Drill Program Has Successfully Expanded the Known Mineralized Zone Surrounding the Kayelekera Uranium Mine (Kayelekera or the Project) Lotus Resources Limited announced that a 35-hole RC drill program has successfully expanded the known mineralised zone surrounding the Kayelekera Uranium mine (Kayelekera or the Project). Following these positive drill results, the Company has decided to prepare an updated Mineral Resource Estimate to be released later this quarter. During September 2021, Lotus commenced its inaugural uranium exploration drill program at the Kayelekera mine site. The program consisted of 4,533 metres in 35 reverse circulation (RC) drillholes, targeting areas peripheral to the existing Mineral Resource to test the margins of the resource estimate for further extensions, together with limited exploratory testing of radiometric anomalies located within 3km of the existing processing facility. The drilling was caried out by Thompson Drilling Lda (Mozambique) with downhole radiometric logging carried out by experienced local contractors under the supervision of Lotus geologists. Mineralised intervals, defined by a 200ppm U3O8 cut off over a minimum thickness of 1m, were selected for sampling. These samples were analysed for uranium by ALS Laboratories in Johannesburg. The focus of the current RC program was the southern and eastern margins of the known resource. The holes completed in these locations were designed to either define extensional mineralisation or increase the existing resource classification (Figure 1). The best results of 2m grading 2,541ppm U3O8 and 3m grading 829ppm U3O8 are located on the eastern edge of the mineralised system. A total of eight holes were also drilled at the Kayelekera South prospect, which is located approximately two kilometres south of the current Kayelekera pit. The area comprises several airborne radiometric anomalies. In the Target 1 area, drillhole LRC033 successfully intersected 2m grading 817ppm U3O8 from a depth of 28m. This drillhole represents the first intersection of significant uranium mineralisation outside the known mineral resource area. Following these results the Company is planning on preparing a Mineral Resource upgrade which is anticipated to be completed during 1Q2022. The updated mineral resource will be used for the updated mine plan to be incorporated with the Definitive Feasibility Study, which remains on track to be released in mid-2022.
