Panasonic C-Sample, Qualification Progress and Strategic Funding

NOVONIX’s delivery of a mass production qualification sample, or C-sample, of synthetic graphite anode active material to Panasonic Energy represented a critical commercialization milestone and provided the strategic backdrop for the Institutional Placement and Share Purchase Plan completed during the quarter. The capital raise followed strong market support for the Panasonic announcement and the Company’s progress toward what it believes is the first known synthetic graphite AAM C-sample produced in North America.

Proceeds from the raise are expected to support ongoing operations and be strategically deployed toward the capital expenditure and production-readiness activities required to keep NOVONIX aligned with its target of commencing commercial production for Panasonic in the second half of 2027. While the timing remains subject to successful completion of the broader qualification process by Panasonic and its customers, these investments are intended to support capacity, equipment, and operational readiness to meet start of production for Panasonic.

U.S. Government Policy Environment

Continued Focus on Building a Domestic Graphite Supply Chain

The Company continues to engage constructively with the U.S. Government regarding policies and actions intended to strengthen domestic critical mineral processing and reduce reliance on foreign supply chains for battery materials. Over the past year, multiple U.S. Government agencies have undertaken reviews and initiatives to address market distortions affecting the U.S. graphite anode active material ("AAM") industry. While the timing and outcome of these processes remain uncertain, collectively they represent a significant level of attention to the strategic importance of establishing a domestic graphite AAM industry.

These policies and actions reflect the U.S. Government's continued recognition that establishing a U.S. graphite AAM industry is an important national security objective and that additional trade and market measures may be required to support investment in U.S. production capacity. These policies and actions are occurring alongside broader discussions regarding the use of tariffs,

procurement preferences, domestic content requirements, and other trade policy tools to encourage investment in U.S. processing capacity.

The Administration has also indicated that future trade negotiations may be used to reinforce secure and resilient critical mineral supply chains with trusted partners. The Company continues to evaluate all available legal and policy options to support the development of a competitive domestic graphite AAM industry.

Ongoing Trade and National Security Reviews

Section 301 Investigations

The Office of the United States Trade Representative ("USTR") has completed its investigation under Section 301 of the U.S. Trade Act of 1974 (“Section 301”) relating to forced labor and has imposed 10%-12.5% tariffs on most goods, including synthetic graphite, imported from the 59 countries (including China and Indonesia) and the European Union targeted in the investigation.

USTR is currently conducting another investigation under Section 301structural excess manufacturing capacity and production in strategically important sectors. The excess capacity investigation is targeting 16 countries and the European Union. This investigation is evaluating whether additional trade measures, including tariffs on imports from the target countries, are warranted to address market distortions that may adversely affect U.S. manufacturers, including producers of battery materials.

Section 232 Investigations

Separately, the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Commerce”) has completed its investigation pursuant to Section 232 of the U.S. Trade Expansion Act of 1962, into imports of processed critical minerals and their derivative products. Commerce concluded that such imports are entering the United States in quantities and under circumstances that threaten to impair U.S. national security, and the President concurred with that determination. In response, on 14 January 2026, the President issued a Proclamation (the “232 Proclamation”) directing the Secretary of Commerce and the U.S. Trade Representative to negotiate agreements with trading partners to address these national security concerns. The 232 Proclamation specifically contemplates the negotiation of measures such as price floors for trade in processed critical minerals.

Under the President's 232 Proclamation, the Secretary of Commerce and the U.S. Trade Representative were required to provide the President with an update on the status of negotiations with trading partners within 180 days, which was 13 July 2026. No public

announcement has been made regarding that report. The 232 Proclamation provides that, if satisfactory agreements are not reached or prove ineffective, the Administration may implement additional import adjustment measures, including tariffs, minimum import prices, or other remedies available under Section 232.

Section 842 Requirements

Section 842 of the U.S. National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026 (NDAA) establishes phased sourcing requirements for advanced batteries procured by the U.S. Department of Defense. Beginning with new acquisition programs in 2028, the Department generally may procure only advanced batteries and battery cells whose functional cell components and technology are not owned, sourced, refined, or produced by a foreign entity of concern ("FEOC”). The statute provides a limited exception where final assembly occurs outside an FEOC, more than 95% of the cost of the functional cell components is attributable to non-FEOC sources, and the battery is produced without FEOC-licensed technology. The requirements expand to standard batteries in 2029 and existing acquisition programs in 2031.

The Company and others in the U.S. battery materials industry have been working closely with Department of Defense personnel on implementing regulations to ensure that the interests of the U.S. domestic graphite AAM industry are properly addressed.

Treasury Implementation of Section 45X

The U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) continues to develop regulations and administrative guidance relating to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Tax Credit (“45X Tax Credit”).

The 45X Tax Credit provides, among other things, a production tax credit to manufacturers of battery cells equal to US$35 per kilowatt-hour of battery cell capacity for qualifying battery cells manufactured in the United States and sold to an unrelated party. To be eligible for the credit, qualifying battery cells must satisfy increasing requirements limiting material assistance from prohibited foreign entities. These requirements are measured by reference to the proportion of direct material and production costs attributable to non-prohibited foreign entity sources. For battery cells sold in 2027, the required amount is 65%, increasing each year to a maximum of 85% in 2030 and thereafter. Under current law, the credit is scheduled to be reduced by 25% in 2030, by 50% in 2031 and by 75% in 2032 before expiring for battery cells after 2032.

Industry participants, including the Company, have encouraged Treasury to improve the effectiveness of the credit for domestic graphite AAM production. Suggestions include revisions

 

to the applicable material cost ratio ("MACR") tables and related methodologies, clarification of the definitions of "Prohibited Foreign Entity" ("PFE") and related ownership and control concepts, clarifications regarding eligibility of previously acquired or contracted material, and measures to reduce opportunities for circumvention of the statutory intent.

Industry participants have also advocated for the establishment of product-specific Harmonized Tariff Schedule ("HTS") classifications for graphite anode active material to improve transparency, support more effective trade enforcement, and facilitate the administration of U.S. incentive programs.

U.S. International Trade Commission

Five individuals have been confirmed by the Senate as new Commissioners of the U.S. International Trade Commission ("ITC"). These appointments have substantially changed the composition of the Commission.

The Company's prior antidumping and countervailing duty ("AD/CVD") petition against China was ultimately unsuccessful following a split decision (2-1) by the ITC on the question of material retardation. The two Commissioners who voted against the petition have been replaced with the new Commissioners. With its full complement of six Commissioners, only three affirmative votes are required for the Commission to reach a positive determination for U.S. industry.

Potential Future Trade Actions

The Company continues to evaluate all available legal and policy options to support the development of a competitive domestic graphite AAM industry. Subject to market conditions and the evolution of the relevant factual record, the Company intends to consider filing a new AD/CVD petition at an appropriate time.

Divestiture of Battery Technology Solutions

NOVONIX completed the divestiture of its Battery Technology Solutions (BTS) division to further enhance its strategic focus on synthetic graphite production and reduce the ongoing funding requirements associated with BTS’s business.

The transaction reflected a broader effort to align capital, management attention, and operational resources with the Company’s core product strategy of scaling North American synthetic graphite AAM production. While BTS had valuable technology and capabilities, it was outside NOVONIX’s primary commercial focus and represented a strategic distraction from the Company’s highest-priority customer qualification, production readiness, and commercialization activities.

This focus is also supported by the Company’s September 2025 sale of its Mount Dromedary mining rights in Northern Queensland, which further streamlined the portfolio and reinforced NOVONIX’s strategic emphasis on its core synthetic graphite AAM business.
