Explanatory Note
This report on Form 6-K/A (the “Amendment”) amends the report on Form 6-K filed on October 2, 2025 (the “Original 6-K”) of Australian Oilseeds Holdings Limited (the “Company”). The purpose of this Amendment is solely to provide additional narrative to demonstrate compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A) (the “Equity Rule”) (which requires listed issuers to maintain minimum stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million), as set forth below.
As previously reported by the Company, on August 22, 2025, the Company received written notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that a Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”) has determined to grant the request of the Company to continue its listing on Nasdaq for the period and subject to specified conditions. The Panel granted the Company an extension to regain compliance with continued listing requirements and demonstrate long-term compliance with the Equity Rule.
Specifically, the Panel provided the Company until September 30, 2025 to demonstrate compliance with the Equity Rule by filing a timely public disclosure describing the transactions undertaken by the Company to achieve compliance and demonstrate long-term compliance with the Equity Rule, and by providing an indication of its equity following those transactions. The Company may do so by including in the public filing a balance sheet with pro forma adjustments for any significant transactions or events occurring on or before the report date.
On September 30, 2025, the Company filed its Interim Balance Sheet dated June 30, 2025 on Form 6-K, which contained its pro forma adjustments to demonstrate compliance with the Equity Rule. Shareholder’s equity as of June 30, 2025 as per the Company’s unaudited balance sheet is AUD 4,721,826, which is equivalent to USD 3,166,405 (current exchange rate AUD/USD 0.66). As per Company’s unaudited balance sheet included in the Original 6-K, as of August 31, 2025 shareholders’ equity is AUD 4,946,009, which is equivalent to USD 3,264,366.
