Principal Activities
During the financial period the company was idle having been established to explore and evaluate some of Delta Lithium Limited’s
(the “Parent” entity) tenements predominantly situated in Western Australia, Australia.
Financial Review
The Company has recorded an operating loss after income tax from continuing operations for the year ended 30 June 2024 of $310
(2023: $688) and net operating cash outflows of $310 (2023: $688).
Dividends
No dividend has been declared or paid by the Company since the start of the financial period and the directors do not at present
recommend a dividend.
Matters subsequent to reporting date
On 6 February 2025, the Company entered into a Mineral Rights Deed with Mt Ida Lithium Pty Ltd (a fellow subsidiary of Delta
Lithium) and Delta Lithium Limited pursuant to which Mt Ida Lithium granted the Company all of the rights, entitlement and
interests conferred by certain tenements insofar as they relate to gold. This includes the rights to explore and mine for gold on
the area of land covered by the Tenements from time to time (the Gold Rights).
In consideration for the provision of the Gold Rights a loan owed to Delta Lithium was assigned to the Company.
No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2024 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the
Company’s operations, the results of those operations, or the Company’s state of affairs in future financial years.
Likely Developments
Other than as referred to in this report, further information as to likely developments in the operations of the Company and likely
results of those operations would, in the opinion of directors, be speculative.
Significant changes in the state of affairs
Other than as disclosed elsewhere in this Directors’ Report, there have been no significant changes in the state of affairs of the
Company during the year ended 30 June 2024.
Environmental Regulations
The Company is subject to and is compliant with all aspects of environmental regulation of its exploration and mining activities.
The directors are not aware of any environmental law that is not being complied with.
NGER Act
The directors considered the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (the NGER Act) which introduces a single national
reporting framework for the reporting and dissemination of information about the greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gas
projects, and energy use and production of corporations. At the current stage of development, the directors have determined
that the NGER Act will have no effect on the Company for the current nor subsequent financial year. The directors will reassess
this position as and when the need arises.

MT IDA AU PTY LTD – Financial Report 2024
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
Mt Ida Au Pty Ltd Limited (the “Company” or “Mt Ida Au”) is a for-profit Company incorporated and domiciled in Australia and is
a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta Lithium Limited (the “Parent” entity). The financial statements are presented in the Australian
currency. The financial statements of the Company as at and for the financial year ended 30 June 2024 was authorised for release
in accordance with a resolution of the directors dated 24th April 2025.
The Company’s principal activity is that of mineral exploration and evaluation of new and existing projects in Australia.
2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies have
been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The Company has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting
Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period with no material impact. Any new or amended
Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of providing historical financial information of the Company in
relation to the Directors’ due diligence in connection with an Initial Public Offering. The financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB').
The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards adopted by the International Accounting
Standards Board ('IASB').
Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the continuation of normal business
activities and realisation of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the period ending 30 June 2024, the Company incurred a loss from continuing operations of $310 (2023: $688), with net cash
outflows from operations of $310 (2023: $688). As at 30 June 2024, the Company has net current liabilities of $998 (2023: $688)
and net liabilities of $998 (2023: $688).
The Company requires additional funding to continue operations, including its planned exploration and evaluation activities. The
directors have prepared a cash flow forecast for the 12-month period from the date of this report which indicates the Company
will have sufficient funds available to it to continue as a going concern, subject to planned fund raising activities from a
potential Initial Public Offering, which are draft, indicative, not formally executed and are subject to future financial market
conditions present at the time those initiatives are executed.
In the event the Company is unable to avail of these planned fund raising initiatives from a potential Initial Public Offering for
the Company’s exploration and evaluation program, the directors have prepared a curtailed cash flow forecast for the next 12
months which indicates the Company will have sufficient funds available to it to continue as a going concern, subject to support
from their ultimate parent. The Company’s ultimate parent entity has provided a letter of financial support confirming that it is
aware of the obligations of the Company, and it will provide sufficient financial support in the form of additional loan funds and
to not require repayment of existing loan funding for at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements
Based on the matters detailed above, the directors are satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate and
that the Group will be able to realise its assets and settle its obligations in the ordinary course of business over the next 12
months.
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management
to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Entity's accounting policies.
12
MT IDA AU PTY LTD – Financial Report 2024
Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the Company’s
normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the
reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at
least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Company’s normal operating cycle; it is held
primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional
right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as
non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Any incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are
recognised in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of the Company, excluding any costs of
servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial
year. There were no potentially dilutive instruments outstanding during the period.
Goods and services tax (GST)
Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable
from the taxation authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.
Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable
from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the statement of financial position.
Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which
are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flows.
Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.
Comparatives
For the financial year ended 30 June 2024, comparative figures have been included and are for the period from incorporation on
16 December 2022 to 30 June 2023.
Rounding of amounts
The Company is of a kind referred to in Corporations Instrument 2016/191, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments
Commission, relating to 'rounding-off'. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in accordance with that Corporations
Instrument to the nearest dollar.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have recently been issued or amended but are not yet mandatory, have
not been early adopted by the Company for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2024. The Company has not yet assessed
the impact of these new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations.

Income Tax Consolidation
Mt Ida AU is a member of the income tax consolidated group comprising Delta Lithium and its wholly owned Australian subsidiaries
(Controlled Entities) which implemented the tax consolidation legislation effective as of 19 July 2011.
Current tax expense (income), deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of the Company
are recognised using the ‘stand alone taxpayer’ approach whereby the Company measures its current and deferred taxes as if it
continued to be a separately taxable entity in its own right. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are measured by
reference to the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet and their tax values applying under
tax consolidation.
Any current tax liabilities (or assets) and deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses of the Company are assumed by the
head entity of the tax-consolidated group and are recognised as amounts payable (receivable) to other entities in the taxconsolidated group in conjunction with any tax funding arrangement amounts (refer below). Any difference between these
amounts is recognised by the Company as an equity contribution from or distribution to the head entity.
The Company recognises deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable
profits of the Company will be available against which the assets can be utilised. The Company assesses the recovery of its unused
tax losses and tax credits only in the period in which they arise, and before assumption by the head entity, in accordance with
AASB 112 applied in the context of the tax-consolidated group. Any subsequent period adjustments to deferred tax assets arising
from unused tax losses as a result of revised assessments of the probability of recoverability are recognised by the head entity
only.
Nature of tax funding arrangement and tax sharing agreements
Delta Lithium and its Controlled Entities including Mt Ida AU have also entered into tax sharing and tax funding agreements. Under
the terms of these agreements Mt Ida AU will reimburse Delta Lithium for any current income tax payable by Delta Lithium arising
in respect of its activities. The reimbursements are payable at the same time as the associated income tax liability falls due and
will therefore be recognised as a current tax-related receivable by Delta Lithium when they arise. In the opinion of the Directors,
the tax sharing agreement is also a valid agreement under the tax consolidation legislation and limits the joint and several liability
of Mt Ida AU in the case of a default by Delta Lithium.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial Risk Management Policies
The Company’s activities expose it to a limited degree of financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
Risk management is carried out by the directors, policies and procedures are approved by review by the directors of the Company
on a regular basis.
Market Risk
The Company does not have any significant exposure to financial risks through its financial instruments.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the probability of a decline in the value of a financial instrument resulting from unexpected fluctuations in
interest rates. At reporting date, the Company does not have long-term interest-bearing borrowings and its exposure to interest
rate risk is assessed as low. Refer to note 5 for details on the parent company loan.
Credit Risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the
Company. The Company does not have any significant concentration of credit risk. As the Company does not presently have any
trade debtors, lending, significant stock levels or any other credit risk, a formal credit risk management policy is not maintained.
Liquidity risk
The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cashflows. The Company does not have any
significant liquidity risk as the Company does not currently have any collateral debts.
