New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: AU$15.1m (US$9.93m) This is considered a major 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Major Estimate Revision • Sep 25

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.4% 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 Dividend is not well covered by earnings (0% payout ratio). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (0.5% net profit margin). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.4% increase in shares outstanding).

Magontec Limited Announces QSLM Production Update On 20 July 2021 Mr. Kang Min Xie, the Chairman of Qinghai Huixin Asset Management Co. Ltd. (QHAM, principal owner of QSLM) and a Director of Magontec Limited, informed the company by letter that an engineering company has been engaged to carry out the remediation and re- start of one (of six) dehydration lines at the Qinghai Magnesium Salt Lake (QSLM) electrolytic smelter. This work has commenced and, per the advice received, is expected to be completed by 30 December 2021. The remediated dehydration line is expected to be commissioned in the first quarter of 2022. Mr. Xie noted that the magnesium plant is the central manufacturing unit for the wider QSLM industrial complex (now owned by QHAM) and that re-starting the dehydration and associated electrolysis plant is their top priority. (The electrolysis plant also delivers chlorine gas to other industrial activities on the QSLM site). While QSLM are expressing confidence that one dehydration line can be remediated under the current finance plan within the timetable above, the company note that a significant finance task remains for the project and that technical complexity and resource limitations have caused historical challenges. Each dehydration unit has a rated annual output of MgCl 2 prills sufficient to produce 16,600 tonnes of liquid pure magnesium from the electrolysis plant. In FY2020 the Magontec Qinghai cast house produced just 5,815 tonnes of magnesium alloy and sourced all its raw material from third parties located in other provinces. Magontec built this cast house with the capacity to produce 60,000 tonnes of magnesium alloys per annum and to receive raw material in liquid form from the adjacent magnesium smelter.
