Principal activities

the Northern Territory of Australia.
Significant changes in the state of affairs
At a general meeting of shareholders held on 7 November 2025, a resolution was passed to change
the name of the Company from Transition Minerals Ltd to Barkly Rare Earths Limited.
During the period, on 1 December 2025, the Company issued a prospectus for an initial public
offering of securities. The Company subsequently issued a supplementary prospectus after period
end (8 January 2026).
Following the closure of the offer contained in the prospectus, the Company’s securities were
admitted to the list of the Australian Securities Exchange, and commenced trading on 30 January
2026.
Review of operations
Barkly Project (100% owned)
During the period, the Company initiated an orientation study to determine parameters to be used
for field-based XRF analysis of samples for rare earth elements, and undertook detailed exploration
planning and budgeting for the upcoming drilling programs.
Buntine Project (100% owned)
During the period, the Company focussed its attention on the preliminary exploration and targeting
activities at the Barkly Project, and the preparation and lodgement of the Initial Public Offering
prospectus. Accordingly, there was no work conducted at the Buntine Project.
Financial position
The Company made a loss for the half year to 31 December 2025 of $918,231 (31 December 2024:
$62,585). Cash reserves at 31 December 2025 were $83,806 (30 June 2025: $42,967).

FINANCIAL REPORT
FortheHalfYearEnded31December2025
www.barklyrareearths.com 11
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Corporate Information
Barkly Rare Earths Limited (formerly Transition Minerals Ltd) is a company limited by shares, domiciled
and incorporated in Australia. This consolidated interim financial report (Interim Financial Report) as
at and for the six (6) months ended 31 December 2025 comprises the Company only and there are no
subsidiaries of the Company.
The Company is primarily involved in the exploration for and exploitation of mineral deposits in the
Northern Territory of Australia.
The annual financial report of the Company as at and for the year ended 30 June 2025 is available
upon request from the Company’s registered office at 13 Rheola Street, West Perth 6005 Western
Australia and the Company’s website at www.barklyrareearths.com.
2. Material Accounting Policy Information
a. Basis of Preparation
This Interim Financial Report contains general purpose financial statements prepared in accordance
with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act
2001 (Cth), and with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. All
amounts are presented in Australian dollars.
This Interim Financial Report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual
financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the
year ended 30 June 2025 and any public announcements made by Barkly Rare Earths Limited during
the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the
Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).
The accounting policies and methods of computation adopted in the preparation of the Interim
Financial Report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the Company’s annual financial
report for the year ended 30 June 2025. The accounting policies are consistent with Australian
Accounting Standards adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and with the
International Financial Reporting Standards.
The Interim Financial Report was authorised for issue by the directors on 11 March 2026.
b. Going concern basis
The Interim Financial Report has been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
continuity of normal business activity and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in
the ordinary course of business.
The Company incurred a loss for the period of $918,231 (2024: $62,585), operating cash outflows of
$959,236 (2024: $96,767) and net cash inflows of $40,839 (2024: inflow $14,928). The Company is in
a current net asset position of $95,170 and has a net surplus in equity of $95,170 as at 31 December
2025. These conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
FINANCIAL REPORT
FortheHalfYearEnded31December2025
www.barklyrareearths.com 12
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
Based on the status of the Company’s financial position and cash flow forecasts, the directors are
satisfied that the going concern basis of preparation for this Interim Financial Report is appropriate.
However, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is reliant on the Company being
able to secure funds from equity financings. Should any of the uncertainties inherent in equity markets
materialise the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern and it may be required to
realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities other than in the normal course of business and at
amounts different to those stated in the financial statements.
The financial statements do not include any further adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of asset carrying amounts or to the amount and classification of liabilities that might
result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its debts as and when
they fall due.
c. Adoption of new and revised Accounting Standards
The Company has adopted all new and revised Standards and Interpretations issued by the AASB that
are relevant to its operations and effective for an accounting period that begins on or after 1 July 2025.
d. Standard and Interpretations not yet adopted
The Company has reviewed the new and revised Standards and Interpretations on issue not yet
adopted for the half year ended 31 December 2025. As a result of this review the Company has
determined that there is no material impact of the Standards and Interpretations on issue not yet
adopted on the Company and, therefore, no change is necessary to Group accounting policies.
e. Critical accounting judgement, estimate and assumptions
The Interim Financial Report requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions
that affect the application of accounting policies. Actual results may differ to these.
The critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions adopted in the preparation of the
Interim Financial Report are consistent with those adopted and disclosed in the Company’s annual
financial report for the year ended 30 June 2025.
3. Segment information
For management purposes, the Company has identified only one reportable segment being
exploration activities undertaken in Australia. This segment includes activities associated with the
determination and assessment of the existence of commercial economic reserves from the Company’s
mineral assets in this geographic location.
Segment performance is evaluated based on the operating profit and loss and cash flows and is
measured in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies.

DIRECTORS’ DECLARATION
In accordance with a resolution of the Directors of Barkly Rare Earths Limited, I state that:
In the opinion of the Directors:
(a) the attached condensed financial statements and notes are in accordance with the
Corporations Act 2001, including:
(i) giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 31 December
2025 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date; and
(ii) complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the
Corporations Regulations 2001; and
(b) there are reasonable grounds to believe that the Company will be able to pay its debts as
and when they become due and payable.
Signed in accordance with a resolution of the directors made pursuant to s.303(5) of the Corporations
Act 2001.
On behalf of the Directors
Craig Wright

Perth, 12 March 2026
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
To the members of Barkly Rare Earths Limited (formerly Transition Minerals Limited)
Report on the Half-Year Financial Report
Conclusion
We have reviewed the half-year financial report of Barkly Rare Earths Limited (formerly Transition Minerals
Limited) (the ‘Company’), which comprises the condensed statement of financial position as at 31 December
2025, the condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed statement of
changes in equity and condensed statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a summary of
significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, and the Director’s Declaration.
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 the Company does not comply with the Corporations Act
2001 including:
a) giving a true and fair view of the Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 and of its financial
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.
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the
Independent Auditor of the Entity. Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities
for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance
with the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code
of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our
audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance
with the Code.
We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001 which has been given
to the Directors of the Company, would be in the same terms if given to the Directors as at the time of this
auditor’s review report.
Material Uncertainty related to Going Concern
We draw attention to the note 2b of the financial report, which described that the ability of the company to
continue as a going concern is dependent on raising equity finance. As a result, there is a material
uncertainty related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern, and therefore whether it will realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities in the
normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial report.
Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Director’s Responsibilities for the Half-Year Financial Report
The Directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report in accordance
with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporation 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 Responsibilities for the Review of the Half-Year Financial Report
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410
requires us to conclude whether 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 Company’s financial position as at 31 December 2025 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.
