Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the final audited Form 20-F filing expected by October 31, 2025, to confirm the BDO audit opinion on the June 30, 2025 financials.
- Monitor the Company's ability to maintain the $2.5 million equity threshold in subsequent reporting periods to avoid delisting.
- Review the terms and maturity dates of the AUD 6.5 million in related party loans and AUD 6.5 million in current borrowings to assess near-term liquidity pressure.
- Confirm the sustainability of the gross margin improvement (from ~17.5% in 2024 to ~8.3% in 2025) given the revenue growth.
