INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT
Explanatory Note
As previously reported by Australian Oilseeds Holdings Limited (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 Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(1)(A) (the “Equity Rule”) (which requires listed issuers to maintain minimum stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million).
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.
Interim Balance Sheet Showing Pro Forma Adjustments to Demonstrate Compliance
In compliance with the requirements of the Nasdaq Panel, the Company is filing this Form 6-K containing its unaudited balance sheet and income statement as of the end of its fiscal year of June 30, 2025 to demonstrate its continued compliance with the Equity Rule, which were reviewed by BDO. 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). BDO’s audit opinion is not provided as of today, we expect Form 20F with the BDO audit opinion to be filed on a timely basis on or before October 31, 2025.
