Larvotto Resources Limited Directors' report 30 June 2026 3 Directors The following persons were directors of the Company for the entire half-year and up to the date of this report unless stated otherwise: Ronald Heeks - Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Mark Tomlinson - Non-Executive Chair Rachelle Domansky - Non-Executive Director Principal activities During the financial half-year the principal continuing activities of the the Group consisted of: ● Exploration, evaluation and development at the Hillgrove Antimony and Gold Project in New South Wales ("Hillgrove Project") ● Exploration and evaluation at the Mt Isa Project in Queensland and Eyre Project in Western Australia Dividends There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the current or previous financial half-year. Review of operations During the half-year ended 30 June 2026, the Group made substantial progress in advancing the Hillgrove Project from development towards production, while broadening its growth pipeline through continued exploration success at Hillgrove and the establishment of a new, district-scale copper strategy in the Mt Isa region of Queensland. The Group remained fully funded for the restart of the Hillgrove Mine, closing the period with a cash position of approximately $88 million, and continued to benefit from the growing strategic importance of antimony following the Australian Government's legislation of a $1.2 billion Critical Minerals Strategic Reserve. Hillgrove Project The Hillgrove Project covers 254km² and comprises four exploration leases and 48 granted mining leases, hosting a Mineral Resource of 1.7 million ounces AuEq at 7.4g/t AuEq that ranks it among the world's top 10 antimony deposits and the largest in Australia. The fully funded upgrade and refurbishment of the operation represents an investment of approximately $150 million. At full production, Hillgrove is expected to produce approximately 4,900 tonnes of antimony and 40,500 ounces of gold per annum over an initial eight-year mine life, supporting a workforce of approximately 180 positions and generating substantial economic activity across the Northern Tablelands region of New South Wales. Development activity during the period was directed at readying the operation for first production. Refurbishment of the Metals Processing Facility progressed on schedule and on budget, with the primary and secondary crushers nearing completion and redundant power, water and communications services replaced. Underground, mining contractor PYBAR completed the mobilisation of staff and equipment, rehabilitated approximately 2,530m² of drives in preparation for ore production and commenced trucking of waste to surface, with first development ore from the Metz underground mine delivered to surface stockpiles during the June quarter. Subsequent to the half-year end, staged commissioning of the processing facility commenced: the crushing circuit was successfully commissioned using Metz ore and wet plant commissioning was well advanced, keeping the Company on track for first production targeted around August 2026. Exploration and resource growth The Group maintained an extensive diamond drilling program across the Hillgrove mineral field, focused on the Metz (Blacklode), Clarks Gully and Freehold prospects, which continued to confirm the scale and grade of the antimony-gold system and to demonstrate associated tungsten mineralisation as a potential third payable product. In June 2026, Larvotto announced an initial JORC Exploration Target for the Midas Lode within the Metz Mining Centre, with a preferred estimate of 3.95Mt at 5.16g/t AuEq for 656,000 ounces AuEq. Lying directly along strike from the Syndicate Lode and accessible from existing underground development, the Midas Lode offers clear near-mine growth potential, and a systematic resource-definition program of approximately 45 holes for 15,000 metres has been planned. A review of historical drilling at Curry's Block further confirmed a high-grade gold-antimony-tungsten system over approximately one kilometre of strike, with drilling approved to commence in the following quarter. Marketing and approvals During the period the Group executed a binding seven-year gold concentrate offtake agreement with Glencore International AG on a mine-gate basis, complementing the existing antimony concentrate offtake with Wogen Resources and completing the marketing arrangements for Hillgrove's primary concentrate products.

Larvotto Resources Limited Directors' report 30 June 2026 4 Initial metallurgical test work on the legacy Tailings Storage Facility 1 demonstrated recoveries of 80–95% antimony and 40– 75% gold, confirming the potential for the approximately 1.4Mt facility to provide supplementary mill feed while enabling progressive environmental rehabilitation. The Group also continued to progress its Modification 5 application through the New South Wales planning assessment, which seeks to lift approved processing capacity from 250,000 to 500,000 tonnes per annum and to transition the operation to dry-stack tailings. Mt Isa Copper Project, QLD In Queensland, the Group advanced a new copper growth strategy centred on the Mt Isa region. Due diligence drilling at the historic Blockade Copper Mine, located east-north-east of Mount Isa, was completed during the period and confirmed strong copper mineralisation beneath the historical open pit. Subsequent to the half-year end, Larvotto exercised its option to proceed, securing the exclusive right to explore for, develop and mine copper on the mining lease in consideration for the issue of shares to the value of $400,000, together with a separate option to acquire the lease outright for $1 million and deferred consideration of up to $10 million payable should ore be produced. Eyre Project, WA At the Eyre Project in Western Australia, laboratory results from a second round of rare-earth element metallurgical test work on samples from a recent aircore drilling program are still pending. The results will inform an assessment of mineralogy, recovery potential and processing pathways ahead of further exploration and development planning across the project's large, multi-commodity landholding. Corporate Antimony's strategic importance was reinforced during the period when the Australian Government legislated the Export Finance and Insurance Corporation Amendment (Strategic Reserve) Bill 2026, confirming antimony as one of three initial priority commodities, alongside gallium and rare earths, within a $1.2 billion Critical Minerals Strategic Reserve designed to secure long-term supply of critical minerals. In support of its engagement with government, defence and strategic partners as Hillgrove advances to production, Larvotto appointed former Federal Senator The Hon. David Fawcett as Strategic Advisor on an initial 12-month term. The Group continued to draw down its Nordic Bond facility to fund the Hillgrove restart, receiving the second drawdown of US$31.5 million (A$45.2 million) towards the end of March 2026 and the third and final drawdown of US$42.5 million (A$60.2 million) towards the end of June 2026, each reviewed and approved by an independent engineer. Financial position and results The Group recorded a loss after income tax of $6,931,518 for the half-year ended 30 June 2026, a marked reduction from the loss of $12,356,801 in the prior corresponding period, primarily reflecting lower expensed exploration expenditure as the Hillgrove Project transitioned into its development phase, during which such costs are capitalised. Total income for the period was $1,640,403, comprising interest income of $1,134,540 and other income of $505,863. At 30 June 2026 the Group held cash and cash equivalents of $87,924,449 and reported net assets of $96,663,164, while mine properties under development increased to $155,348,501 (31 December 2025: $58,222,107) as capital was deployed into the Hillgrove build. The Group remained fully funded for the restart of the Hillgrove Mine. Significant changes in the state of affairs Other than those disclosed in this report, there were no other significant changes in the state of affairs of the Group during the financial half-year. Rounding of amounts Larvotto Resources Limited is a type of Company that is referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2026/183, applies to reporting periods ending on or after 30 June 2026 and replaces the previous 2016 instrument (LI 2016/191) and therefore the amounts contained in this report and in the financial report have been rounded to the nearest dollar.

Larvotto Resources Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2026 11 Note 1. Basis of preparation The directors present the interim financial report of the Consolidated Group ("the Group"), consisting of Larvotto Resources Ltd (referred to in these financial statements as "Parent" or "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries for the half-year ended 30 June 2026 and the audit report thereon, made in accordance with a resolution of the Board. These interim consolidated financial statements for the half-year reporting period ended 30 June 2026 have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 'Interim Financial Reporting' and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate for for-profit oriented entities. Compliance with AASB 134 ensures compliance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2025 and any public announcements made by the Parent during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the policies stated below. Rounding The amounts contained in this financial report have been rounded to the nearest dollar (unless otherwise stated) under the option available to the Company under the ASIC Corporation (Rounding in Financial/Director's Reports) Instrument 2026/183. The Company is an entity to which the legislative instrument applies. New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted There are no accounting pronouncements which have become effective from 1 January 2026 that have a significant impact on the Group's interim consolidated financial statements. At the date of authorisation of these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, several new, but not yet effective, Standards, amendments to existing Standards, and interpretations have been published by the Australian Accounting Standards Board. None of these Standards or amendments to existing Standards have been adopted early by the Group and no Interpretations have been issued that are applicable and need to be taken into consideration by the Group at the reporting date. The new Standards, amendments and interpretations not adopted in the current year are not expected to have a material impact on the Group's consolidated financial statements, except for AASB 18 'Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements', which has an effective date of 1 January 2027. The Group is currently working to identify all of the impacts that AASB 18 will have on the primary financial statements and notes to the financial statements. AASB 18 will be applied retrospectively with specific transitional provisions. Going concern The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and settlements of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Group has reported a net loss for the half-year of $6,931,518 and a cash outflow from operating activities of $4,211,611. At the half-year end, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $87,924,449 and reported a net current asset position of $61,951,331. Given the substantial cash reserves and the ability to defer or avoid certain discretionary expenditure relating to the Hillgrove Project, the Directors are satisfied that the Group will have access to sufficient cash to meet expenditure requirements. Accordingly, the Directors consider that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate. Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. There are no critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions that are likely to affect the current or future financial years.

Larvotto Resources Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2026 12 Note 3. Restatement of comparatives During the current period, the Group identified that certain expenditures previously recognised within Exploration and Evaluation Assets should have been classified as Mine Properties under Development in the prior reporting period. The Group also identified the amount recognised as Restricted Cash should have been classified as Other Financial Assets in the prior reporting period. The comparative information has been restated to reclassify these amounts between asset categories. The restatement had no impact on total assets, total liabilities, net assets, loss after tax, earnings per share or cash flows. When there is a restatement of comparatives, it is mandatory to provide a third consolidated statement of financial position at the beginning of the earliest comparative period, being 1 January 2025. However, as there were no adjustments made as at 1 January 2025, the the Group has elected not to show the 1 January 2025 consolidated statement of financial position. The errors have been corrected by restating each of the affected financial statement line items for the prior period as follows: Statement of financial position 31 December Increase/ 31 December 2025 (Decrease) 2025 $ $ Restated $ Current assets Restricted cash 109,150,741 (109,150,741) - Other financial assets - 109,150,741 109,150,741 0 Non-current assets Exploration and evaluation 8,516,278 (7,563,908) 952,370 Mine properties under development 50,658,199 7,563,908 58,222,107 Net assets 100,897,769 - 100,897,769 Note 4.

Events after the reporting period Blockade Mining Lease On 9 July 2026, the Company announced it had exercised its option to acquire the exclusive rights to explore, develop and mine copper on Mining Lease ML90027 at the Blockade Copper Mine in Queensland. Consideration for the exercise of the option comprises the issue of fully paid ordinary shares valued at $400,000.

Hammer Metals Acquisition Subsequent to 30 June 2026, a third party announced a competing proposal in relation to Hammer Metals Limited. The Company elected not to exercise its right under the Scheme Implementation Deed ("SID") to submit a counterproposal and the SID was subsequently terminated. The termination of the SID resulted in a break fee of $0.55 million payable to the Company as well as repayment of the outstanding loan amount of $1 million provided by the Company to Hammer Metals Limited. These amounts were received in August 2026. The above does not result in any adjustment to the financial statements for the half-year period ended 30 June 2026. No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2026 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the the Group's operations, the results of those operations, or the Group's state of affairs in future financial years.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the accompanying half-year financial report of Larvotto Resources Limited does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including: a giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2026 and of its performance for the half year ended on that date; and b complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd Directors’ responsibility for the half-year financial report The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s responsibility for the review of the financial report Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 30 June 2026 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. Grant Thornton Audit Pty Ltd Chartered Accountants L A Stella Partner – Audit & Assurance Perth, 10 September 2026 24
