OUR BUSINESS

Sigma Lithium is a commercial producer of high purity, environmentally conscious, lithium concentrate. The Company’s existing Phase 1 operations and planned tripling of capacity through Phase 2 & 3 expansions represent one of the largest hard rock lithium mining and beneficiation complexes in the Americas. Its assets are located in the municipalities of Araçuaí́ and Itinga in the northeastern part of the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The Company owns 100% of the Project indirectly through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sigma Mineração S.A. (“Sigma Brazil”), with the Project area comprised of 29 mineral rights (which include mining concessions, applications for mining concessions, exploration authorizations, applications for mineral exploration authorizations) spread over 185 km^2^, located within the broader 19,000-hectare land package held by Sigma Brazil (containing the Grota do Cirilo, Sao Jose, Genipapo and Santa Clara properties).

Sigma’s operations are vertically integrated, with the Company’s mines supplying spodumene bearing material to its lithium production and processing plant (the “GreentechPlant”). The Greentech Plant is designed to process 5.5% to 6.0% battery grade high purity lithium concentrate (“GreenLithium”), engineered to the specifications of the Company’s customers in the rapidly expanding lithium-ion battery supply chain for electric vehicles (“EVs”), in an environmentally friendly way through a fully automated and digital dense medium separation (“DMS”) technology process. The Greentech Plant was built after the completion of engineering to the level of FEL-3 stage precision by Primero Group Ltd. (“Primero”) and extensive testing at the Company’s on-site demonstration pilot plant, which has been in operation since late 2018.

In conjunction with its existing and planned mining and beneficiation activities, Sigma remains committed to expanding its 85.6 million tonne Measured, Indicated, and Inferred mineral resource estimate. On November 1, 2023, the Company, in conjunction with its independent certification company SGS Canada, press released early results from its 2023 drill campaign highlighting a potential 26-30 million tonne increase to said resource. This Phase 4 deposit structure is in the Cirilo Grota region, in the same continuous mineralization line to the Phase 2 and Phase 3 deposits. In total, Phase 4 could lift the Company’s cumulative resource estimate to 110 million tonnes. Further, Sigma announced a likely Phase 5 deposit, with initial drilling indicating the potential for an additional 20 million tons of resource.

As the Company’s mission statement has been guided by adhering to the highest level of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) practices since inception in 2012, the Project is being developed in a sustainable way. Additionally, the Company is focused on social programs promoting sustainable development, inclusion (including on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”)), and upskilling local people in the region where we operate. As a result, the Company has committed to the strategies outlined in Table 1 below, to advance the development of its operations in a responsible and sustainable way. The Company is proud to report that it has successfully delivered on its “net zero carbon” and “zero tailings” programs through the purchase of carbon credit “in-setting” and upcycling its Green By-Products (as described below), achieving “triple zero” production from the onset. Over the longer term, Sigma plans to further build upon its ESG commitments through more innovative programs including increasing its trucking fleet's fuel consumption to a target of approximately 50% biofuels.

Sigma is taking a phased approach to its operations, with Phase 1 production at the Project successfully initiated in April 2023. Table 2 below highlights the results of the Phase 1 FS and Phase 2 & 3 PFS included in the Restated Technical Report. Phase 1 production of Green Lithium has positioned the Company as a globally relevant Tier 1 lithium producer, with Phase 2 & 3 potentially tripling production (if a production decision is made by the Company following the completion of a feasibility study). The Greentech Plant is planned to potentially have two separate production lines, one for Phase 1 and one for Phase 2 & 3, which will have a similar DMS processing flowsheet and will share certain common plant infrastructure.

EXPLORATION PROGRESS

The current exploration program focus is targeted to complete an initial Phase 4 mineral resource estimate. Phase 4 exploration is located in close proximity to Phase 2 and Phase 3 and would be mined as an additional open pit, if warranted and economically viable based on a feasibility study.

On 1 November, 2023 the Company updated capital markets as to its progress in drilling out and defining additional resource. Notably, Sigma increased the exploration potential of Phase 4 to approximately 26 to 30Mt, with ore body extensions continuing to the east, based on the drilling results received to date. The Exploration Program has significantly increased the size of Murial and Lavra do Meio deposits to potentially 23 to 26 Mt ,with the Company validating additional pegmatites: Maxixe and Tamboril, further increasing the total mineral resource potential. All in, this is a significant 25% potential increase to the Grota do Cirilo mineral resource estimate, delivering further consistent high grade assay results which are to be incorporated into an updated NI 43-101 compliant technical report expected to be released in Q4 2023.

As part of the Exploration Program, Sigma Lithium has also identified additional pegmatites that could potentially yield up to 20 Mt of incremental mineral resource in a potential Phase 5. The Company is conducting significant exploration RC drilling, trench work and sampling, in 57 mineralized pegmatites (out of the 200 pegmatites mapped within the Company’s mineral concessions). The Exploration Program defined the surface area and the weathered mineralogy for these 57 pegmatites. The Accelerated Plan will include drilling exploratory core diamond drill holes into each of these targets.

The Company has increased its exploration efforts in an Accelerated Program: a total of 8 core diamond drills currently operating in the Grota do Cirilo region with 20,000m planned for the next 6 weeks. The current drilling priority is to confirm and further extend the size of the pegmatite swarm at the Phase 4 area.

ESG & SUSTAINABILITYPROGRESS

Sigma’s mission statement and key focus has been guided by making business decisions in a manner consistent with furthering the UN SDGs and adhering to the highest level of ESG practices.

Specifically, Sigma is focused on the following three pillars: (i) sustainable development; (ii) minimizing the environmental impact of our operations; and (iii) improving the lives of those in and around the region where we operate. Further, the Company remains focused on global leadership to increase awareness of our “green battery metals” approach.

The Company effectively lowered<br> its carbon footprint with a series of pioneering initiatives, paving the way forward for<br> the metals and mining sector, including: (i) “zero tailings” as described above;<br> (ii) using zero hazardous chemicals in the DMS process at the Greentech Plant; (iii) water<br> efficiency with 100% sewage water used, which is then recirculated; (iv) 100% renewable energy<br> usage at the Greentech Plant; (v) biodiesel used for its trucking fleet with plans to increase<br> to 50% of fuel consumption by 2024; and (vi) decreased explosives load with computerized<br> load simulation strategies. Due to the low carbon content of Sigma’s production, the<br> Company was able to achieve net zero carbon for 2023 via the purchase of 59,000 tonnes of<br> carbon credits (which are verified through Verra Verified Carbon Standard) from Carbonnext. | | --- | --- | | § | Life Cycle Assessment (LCA): A first LCA was conducted in 2020 intended to assist in project<br> development and improvement, and strategic planning. This study used data taken from Sigma’s<br> 2019 definitive feasibility study. Now in full operation, Sigma is commissioning a new cradle-to-gate,<br> ISO-compliant (ISO-14040/14044) LCA study to start very shortly, and to be completed early<br> in 2024. The study will focus on the production process, meaning that the product's life<br> cycle impact will be assessed from the point of resource extraction to the end gate, which<br> is the designated shipping port. | | --- | --- | | § | Environmental Education Program: More than 784 people from five different communities participated<br> in environmental education programs held by Sigma. Topics covered included water education,<br> where participants were educated about conservation, purification and proper use. The Company<br> promotes a strong dialogue with the communities through this program with the following objectives:<br> (i) raising awareness of the Project’s operations (including the socio-economic<br> and environmental impacts of the Project); (ii) identifying community concerns; (iii) strengthening<br> the relationship with the local community; and (iv) raising awareness of environmental<br> control and monitoring programs. This program advances the goals of UN SDGs #11 (Sustainable<br> Cities and Communities) and #15 (Life on Land). | | --- | --- | | § | Environmental Management & Supervision Plan: During the first three quarters of 2023, Sigma<br> continued to implement procedures and standards related to environmental management pursuant<br> to its Integrated Management System (the “IMS”). The Company completed<br> the IMS in the fourth quarter of 2022 (in advance of initiating production at the Project),<br> which focuses on the key pillars summarized below. This program advances the goals of UN<br> SDGs #12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) and #15 (Life on Land). | | --- | --- | | · | Treatment of Domestic Effluents: A sewage treatment station is to be installed and maintained as<br> necessary. | | --- | --- | | · | Rainwater Drainage System and Containment of Erosion: A drainage system was installed in the fourth<br> quarter of 2022 as part of the Phase 1 Greentech Plant construction, which captures rainwater<br> and pumps it back to the Phase 1 Greentech Plant to be used in the process. The Company also<br> began monitoring regional erosion and the effectiveness of the drainage system and will continue<br> to do so going forward. | | --- | --- | | · | Controlling Atmospheric Emissions and Noise / Vibration Impacts: The Company carries out road wetting<br> (one of the most effective techniques for controlling dust emissions) to ensure that the<br> impacts of dust generation are minimized in the areas surrounding the Project. Vehicles and<br> equipment are also routinely inspected and tuned to minimize gas emissions, noise and fuel<br> consumption. Vibrations and noise are controlled and minimized by the periodic lubrication<br> and maintenance of machines and equipment. Rubber blasting mats that absorb vibrations and<br> control flyrock have also been installed. Sigma regularly monitors the levels of noise, ground<br> vibration, air quality and water quality through accredited laboratories. This data is sent<br> to regulatory agencies. | | --- | --- | | · | Waste Management: The Company has implemented a set of procedures and guidelines for the prevention,<br> mitigation and correction of environmental impacts arising from the handling, storage and<br> disposal of waste. This monitoring system is focused on tracking and ensuring the environmentally<br> correct disposal of waste generated in the construction of the Project. | | --- | --- | | · | Recycling Plan: The Company plans on pursuing a strategy of selling Green By-Products generated<br> from the crushing and dry screening process during production at the Project. This plan enables<br> the Company to further reduce the environmental impact of the Project while providing another<br> source of lithium supply in a tight lithium market. | | --- | --- |

REGULATORY & LICENSING UPDATES

Regulatory Updates

Key regulatory changes that are relevant to the Company and/or the lithium industry that occurred in 2023 are highlighted below.

§ On<br> June 9, 2023, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)<br> approved the listing standards proposed by the Nasdaq and the NYSE on February 22, 2023,<br> which require all listed companies to adopt and comply with compensation recovery (or “clawback”)<br> policies for incentive-based compensation received by current and former executive officers<br> based on financial statements that are subsequently restated, and to disclose their clawback<br> policies in accordance with SEC rules. Such listing standards will take effect on October 2,<br> 2023; and listed companies have until December 1, 2023 to adopt compliant policies and<br> must begin to disclose such policies and how they apply in the annual reports filed after<br> they adopt such policy.
§ On<br> October 28, 2022, the Government of Canada issued a new policy (the “New ICA Policy”) relating to the treatment of investments by foreign state-owned enterprise<br> (“SOEs”) and foreign-influenced private investors in Canada’s critical<br> minerals sectors under the Investment Canada Act (the “ICA”). The New<br> ICA Policy identified certain minerals that the Government of Canada has determined are essential<br> to Canada’s prosperity in emerging low-carbon and other technology sectors or that<br> contribute to Canada’s national security as vital inputs to defence and high technology,<br> which includes lithium. The New ICA Policy is intended to preserve Canada’s access<br> to critical minerals and to support the government’s critical minerals strategy, which<br> in turn is designed to position Canada as the global supplier of choice for critical minerals.<br> For a further discussion as to how the New ICA Policy and other governmental policies relating<br> to critical minerals may affect the Company’s business, see “Risks Related to<br> the Company’s Business and Securities”.

In Q3-2023, total assets increased primarily due to the $73.4 million increase in customers, referring to sales carried out at the end of the third quarter. Total liabilities increased primarily due to the $17.7 million financing and export prepayment agreement; a $17.5 million increase in suppliers; a $8.8 million in Income tax and social contribution; a $ 6.5 million in accounts payable, which effects were partially offset by a $29.6 million decrease in advance from customer upon realization in July 2023.

In Q2-2023, total assets increased primarily due to $20.7 million increase in property, plant and equipment as the Company finalized the commissioning and construction of its Phase 1 Greentech Plant. Total liabilities increased due to a $31.8 million customer advance from Yahua that entered on May 22, 2023.

In Q1-2023, total assets increased primarily due to $54.8 million increase in property, plant and equipment as the Company continued to finalize the commissioning and construction of its Phase 1 Greentech Plant. Total liabilities increased primarily due to a $54.4 million drawn under the Synergy Financing (now fully drawn) and $3.1 million drawn during the quarter under a loan with the Brazilian Development Bank of Minas Gerais (“BDMG”) that was previously entered into on November 14, 2022.

In Q4-2022, total assets increased primarily due to a $69.3 million increase in property, plant and equipment; $16.9 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets and due from related parties; $13.9 million increase in exploration and evaluation assets; and $11.2 million increase in cash, following the Company closing the Synergy Financing. Total liabilities increased primarily due to the $77.4 million drawn under the Synergy Financing; a $23.1 million increase in accounts payable; a $4.4 million increase in the Company’s asset retirement obligations; a $3.4 million increase in the Company’s lease liability; and a $2.6 million increase in payroll and other taxes.

In Q3-2022, total assets increased primarily due to a $5.5 million foreign exchange gain partially offset by a $4.0 million cash outflow to return the deposit paid by Mitsui under the Mitsui agreement and to terminate the Mitsui agreement and expenses incurred in the period, including $3.3 million of general and administrative expenses and a $1.0 million loss associated with the termination of the Mitsui HOA. Total liabilities decreased primarily due to the elimination of the Company’s $4.0 million deferred revenue liability as a result of the termination of the Mitsui HOA.

In Q2-2022, total assets decreased primarily due to the expenses in the period (including $3.6 million of general and administrative expenses). Total liabilities increased primarily due to the introduction of a $4.9 million royalty agreement call option liability in the period (the “Royalty Agreement CallOption”). This liability is associated with the Company’s opportunity to repurchase a 1.0% net smelter return royalty on the Project for US$3.8 million. As a subsequent event, the Company exercised the Royalty agreement call option on April 13^th^, 2023 and made the associated cash payment.

In Q1-2022, total assets increased primarily due to amounts capitalized in the period (property, plant & equipment and exploration & evaluation assets increased by $8.4 million and $4.1 million, respectively). Total liabilities decreased primarily due to a $2.5 million decrease in accounts payable.

In Q4-2022, the Company, while reviewing the calculation of its lease contracts, identified several contracts which were not previously accounted for under IFRS 16. The Company has restated the 2021 Financial Statements and the Q3-2022, Q2-2022, Q1-2022, Q3-2021, Q2-2021 and Q1-2021 consolidated interim financial information was re-stated in the quarterly information table to account for the contracts which were not previously capitalized, recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

Please note Q3-2022, Q2-2022 and Q1-2022 consolidated interim financial information was re-stated in the quarterly information table as they contained an error related to the accounting for stock-based compensation expense. The Company has adjusted its stock compensation expense to account for restricted share units (“RSUs”) which were not previously accounted for.

Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $16.6 million (versus $3.3 million in Q3-2022) are comprised of expenses associated with: (i) salaries and benefits ($5.0 million); (ii) legal services ($4.0 million); (iii) Advertising and public relations ($1.2 million); (iv) Advisory and consulting services ($3.4 million); (v) insurance ($1.3 million); and (vi) other general corporate expenses ($1.6 million). The increase in the Company’s general and administrative expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2023 is mostly due to the Company adding key personnel in anticipation of commencing production at the Phase 1 Greentech Plant in April 2023 and increasing investor relations activity.

Share-based compensation for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $2.4 million (versus $14.2 million in Q3-2022), mainly due to (i) the reversal of the losses associated with the RSU's due to the resignation of the executive director and (ii) constitution of a provision for RSU's associated with the net zero carbon target.

Other Items

Gain on foreign exchange was a result of the impact that the appreciation of the U.S. dollar had on cash held in U.S. dollars during the period.

Liquidity Outlook

Sigma’s use of cash is currently, and is expected to continue to be, focused on funding ongoing capital needs for operating the Greentech Plant, developing the Project’s growth opportunities (including Phase 2 & 3) and for general corporate expenditures. The Company continuously monitors its cash outflows and seeks opportunities to minimize all costs, to the extent possible, especially general and administrative expenses.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $38.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, which compares to the $96.3 million at December 31, 2022. The cash reduction of $58.2 million is mainly related to cash used in operating activities of $80.3 million andcash used in investing activities of $61.9 million, partially offset by cash provided by financing activities of $80.9 million and the effect of foreign exchange on cash of $3.1 million.

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $16.2 million, which compares to $8.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022. Additionally, cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $80.3 million, which compares to $15.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The significant components of operating activities are discussed in the Results of Operations section above.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $14.3 million, which compares to $33.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022. Additionally, cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $61.9 million, which compares to $59.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The significant components of investing activities are associated with the construction and commissioning of the Phase 1 Greentech Plant.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $80.9 million, which compares to $2.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The three months ended on September 30, 2023 was only consumption of cash in operating and investing activities. The sources of cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by $54.4 million of proceeds drawn in February and March 2023 under the Synergy Financing (now fully drawn), $3.1 million of proceeds drawn in January 2023 from a loan with the BDMG and export prepayment agreement in the amount of $12.9 million.

Sigma’s outstanding capital expenditures for the Phase 1 Greentech Plant as of September 30, 2023 are summarized below.

Fully Diluted Number of Common Shares 112.5 million

There are stock options exercisable for 100,000 Common Shares outstanding, which have an average exercise price of $14.65 and expire in April 2027.

DISCLOSURE, CONTROLS &PROCEDURES

The CEO and CFO of the Company are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”) for the Company as defined under National Instrument 52-109 (NI 52-109) issued by the Canadian Securities Administrators and in Rule 13a-15(e) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The DC&P is to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the securities legislation and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its certifying officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company has mapped the DC&P deficiencies and taken the following remediating actions: (i) established a Disclosure Committee led by the CFO that includes senior representatives of all business areas; (ii) held an inaugural meeting of the Disclosure Committee to define roles and responsibilities of the members and the review process; (iii) adopted an annual meeting plan to review the quarterly and annual fillings; (iv) adopted a checklist to be used by the members to identify and communicate matters and events to the attention of the Chair of the Disclosure Committee. The Company is following the designed procedures in the review of its annual fillings for the year ended December 31, 2022. However, as at December 31, 2022 given the failure to meet reporting deadlines, the lack of time to evidence the operation and test the DC&P, and given that the Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting (“ICFR”) continued to show material weaknesses, the CEO and CFO evaluated that there was a material weakness in the design and operation of the Company’s DC&P, which were deemed as ineffective.

Notwithstanding these material weaknesses experienced in 2022, Management concluded that the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 presented fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIALREPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in NI 52-109 and Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS. Under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based upon criteria established in Internal Control –Integrated Framework (2013) by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our Management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2022 due to the material weaknesses described below.

| | 26 |

| --- | | SIGMALITHIUM CORPORATION<br><br> <br>MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS<br><br> <br>FOR THE THREE & NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023<br><br> <br>(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per share<br> amounts or unless stated otherwise) | | --- |

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management has identified the following material weaknesses:

§ An<br> ineffective control environment resulting from the failure to disseminate a translated Code<br> of Ethics and relevant training, an insufficient number of trained financial reporting and<br> accounting personnel with the appropriate skills and knowledge and with appropriate assigned<br> authorities, responsibilities and accountability related to the design, implementation and<br> operating effectiveness of financial reporting, as well as insufficient board oversight over<br> the development and performance of internal controls;
§ The<br> insufficient number of personnel described above contributed to an ineffective risk assessment<br> process neccesary to identify all relevant risks of material misstatement, including fraud<br> risks, and to evaluate changes that could impact the system of quality control around processees,<br> as well as the implications of relevant risks on the achievement of objectives, including<br> financial reporting objectives;
--- ---
§ An<br> ineffective internal and external information and communication process to ensure the relevance,<br> timeliness and quality of information used in control activities, particularly with respect<br> to documentation of activities and internal communication between Legal and Accounting for<br> new employment (and consulting) contracts entered into by the Company as well as ensuring<br> the communication of the Company’s whistleblower policy;
--- ---
§ An<br> ineffective monitoring process to ensure controls are periodically evaluated, results of<br> testing are communicated to senior management and the board of directors and the control<br> deficiencies are tracked for remediation on a timely basis; and
--- ---
§ Ineffective<br> control activities due to the (i) failure to deploy general control activities over<br> information technology (ii) failure to document policies and procedures and (iii) failure<br> to document control activities to mitigate risks.
--- ---

These material weaknesses had a pervasive impact on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and resulted in both material and immaterial misstatements to the preliminary consolidated financial statements that were corrected in the audited consolidated financial statements prior to the release of our annual report on Form 40-F. During the third quarter of 2022, it was identified that there were a number of share-based compensation awards within contracts which the Company’s controls failed to detect and account for appropriately in a timely manner. The lack of appropriate controls over the timing of recognition of share-based compensation resulted in the need to restate the interim periods financial statements for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022. In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2022, it was identified that several lease contracts were not previously accounted for under IFRS 16. The lack of appropriate controls over complex accounting practices caused the Company to restate the 2021 Financial Statements through a restatement note included in the 2022 Financial Statements to account for the contracts which were not previously capitalized, properly recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities impact on the financials.

These material weaknesses create a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

ATTESTATION REPORT OF THEREGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Company engaged KPMG LLP to perform an “integrated audit” which encompassed an opinion on the fairness of presentation of the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2022, as well as an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR. KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, audited the Company's consolidated financial statements and issued an adverse report on the effectiveness of ICFR. KPMG LLP‘s attestation report on the Company’s ICFR was incorporated by reference into the Company’s annual report on Form 40-F under the Exchange Act for the year ended December 31, 2022.

For 2023 the Company engaged KPMG Auditores Independentes Ltda., the Brazilian audit firm, to perform the same scope as that performed in 2022 by KPMG LLP.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLOVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND REMEDIATION

In addition to the material weaknesses noted above, the following changes in internal control have the potential to materially affect our ongoing internal control financial reporting:

§ The<br> Company engaged external consultants to assist Management in assessing its internal control<br> over financial reporting, mapping all existing control deficiencies and defining remediation<br> plans; and
§ The<br> Company constantly takes measures to improve management oversight of its financial and accounting<br> activities, which includes managerial skills as well as the process of staffing and further<br> strengthening its accounting and financial teams.

Since the internal control remediation process remains underway, documentation and testing have not been completed at all levels, Management concluded that as of December 31, 2022 there was a material weakness in its internal controls over financial reporting, which were determined to be not effective by Management.

The Company is developing, and has started implementing, remediation plans to address the material weaknesses identified during the December 31, 2022 year end. The Company continues to assess and update its remediation plan during fiscal year 2023, with the goal of remediating all material weaknesses by the end of the year. However, currently it cannot be ensured all the material weaknesses will be remediated by year-end. The following are some of the items the Company has currently started with.

§ Budget process: The Company prepared an annual budget submitted to the Board for approval detailing<br> the investments, expenses and other accounts, which was approved in the first quarter of<br> 2023.
§ IT Investment: During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company approved the IT plan which<br> encompasses investments in equipment and software, additional headcount, training the users,<br> engaging user support providers, as well as establishing policies and procedures for the<br> IT organization structure, including controls over the definition, acquisition, installation,<br> configuration, integration, and maintenance of the IT infrastructure. The Company plans to<br> address training with material in development with our third-party provider. The Company<br> developed a Data Security Policy and the Access Control Policy that is currently under implementation,<br> together with training designed to the users (under development with our third party provider)<br> to operate in the enhanced IT environment with the view to ensure the ITGC controls are effective.
--- ---
§ Code of ethics: Sigma is committed to operate with integrity. The Company is in the process<br> of strengthening the Code of Ethics at all levels and jurisdictions. The Portuguese version<br> of the Code of Ethics will soon be disseminated to all employees, with training sessions<br> to be rolled out, aimed to reach all employees across all jurisdictions during 2023, as part<br> of the process of building a culture of controls and compliance.
--- ---
§ Financial statements closing schedule: The Company will develop with the assistance of external<br> providers a detailed financial statements closing schedule identifying all activities, owners,<br> and reviewers to control the preparation, completion and quality of its quarterly and annual<br> financial statements closing processes.
--- ---

The financial and accounting team will work with external specialists to bring in expertise and expedite the remediation of control deficiencies at the process level during 2023 with a focus on the implementation of absent controls identified at the risks and controls matrix for process underlying all significant accounts and disclosures. The external specialists with expertise in internal controls implementation are assisting with the development and documentation of the following workstreams related to the internal controls over financial reporting needed to be in compliance with SOX: (i) prepare and review the risks and controls matrix; (ii) establish a Project Management Office to manage the control deficiencies and remediation; (iii) develop and document structured policies and procedures; (iv) test the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of the internal controls after remediation to support the CEO and CFO certifications; and (v) support training content development and conducting training sessions across the Company.

The Company has retained the services of Information Technology consulting assistance and plans to hire an Information Technology officer to manage the Information Technology Environment and the Information Technology General Controls. Currently, the CFO accumulates the IT Officer role.

Management will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design and operation of the Company’s internal control environment, as well as the policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management concludes, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. The Company is taking steps toward remediation during the 2023 fiscal year, but still cannot ensure our internal controls environment will be free of material weaknesses by the end of fiscal year 2023.

NEW IFRS PRONOUNCEMENTS

Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentationof Financial Statements

In October 2022, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements titled Non-current liabilities with covenants. These amendments sought to improve the information that an entity provides when its right to defer settlement of a liability is subject to compliance with covenants within 12 months after the reporting period. These amendments to IAS 1 override but incorporate the previous amendments, Classification of liabilities as current or non-current, issued in January 2020, which clarified that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Liabilities should be classified as non-current if a company has a substantive right to defer settlement for at least 12 months at the end of the reporting period. The amendments are effective January 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is required on adoption. We do not expect these amendments to have a material effect on Q1-2023 financial statements.

Amendment to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement2 - Disclosure of Accounting Policies

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements and the IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements to provide guidance on the application of materiality judgments to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments to IAS 1 replace the requirement to disclose significant accounting policies with a requirement to disclose material accounting policies. Guidance and illustrative examples are added in the Practice Statement to assist in the application of the materiality concept when making judgments about accounting policy disclosures. The amendments are effective January 1, 2023. Prospective application is required on adoption. These amendments did not impact the Q1-2023 financial statements.

RISK FACTORS

The Company is subject to numerous risk factors at any given time (many of which are beyond its control) which could materially adversely impact upon its business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, ability to obtain financing and prospects and, as a result, the trading price of the Common Shares. For risk factors faced by Sigma, please refer to its Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2022 in the section titled “Risk Factors” filed on the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov, as revised or supplemented as follows:

Risks Related to Resource Development

§ Development of the Project: The Company’s business strategy depends in large part on developing<br> and maintaining the Project as a commercially viable mining operation. Whether a mineral<br> deposit will be commercially viable depends on numerous factors, including: (i) the<br> particular attributes of the deposit, such as size, grade and proximity to infrastructure;<br> (ii) commodity prices, which are highly volatile; and (iii) government regulations,<br> including regulations relating to prices, taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use, importing<br> and exporting of minerals, environmental protection and capital and operating cost requirements.<br> The continuous development and operation of the Project is subject to the Company securing<br> the necessary funding and other resources and is also subject to numerous development and<br> operational risks. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to<br> maintain the Project as a commercial mining operation.
§ Achieving and managing growth: The Project is at the beginning of the operating stage and is facing<br> a substantial increase in skilled personnel and operational support as the Project transitions<br> to a more consolidated operating stage. The Company’s ability to succeed in concluding<br> the development to commercial operations depends on a number of factors, including management’s<br> ability to manage this transition, the availability of working capital, and the ability to<br> recruit and train additional qualified personnel (and, where appropriate, to engage third<br> party contractors with qualified personnel).

Risks Related to the Company’s Business and Securities

§ Risks of future losses and going concern: The Company’s ability to continue as a going<br> concern is dependent upon the ability to ultimately generate future profitable operations<br> and obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising<br> from normal business operations when they come due. The Company has reported net losses and<br> comprehensive losses for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. The Company had<br> a cash balance of $38.1 million as of September 30, 2023 and believes it will be capable<br> of generating more cash from its operations and considers it will continue as a going concern<br> at least for the next twelve months. The Company’s business does not currently operate<br> on a self-sustaining basis and until it is successfully able to fund its expenditures from<br> its revenues, its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining additional<br> debt financing to fund long-term expenditures related to the construction of the Phase 1<br> Greentech Plant.
§ Significant shareholder influence: To the Company’s knowledge, as of the date hereof, A10 Investimentos<br> Fundo de Investimento de Ações - Investimento No Exterior (“A10 Fund”)<br> holds approximately 43.6% of the outstanding Common Shares. For as long as it directly or<br> indirectly maintains a significant interest in the Company, A10 Fund may be in a position<br> to affect the Company’s governance and operations. As a result of its shareholdings,<br> A10 Fund has the ability, among other things, to approve significant corporate transactions<br> and delay or prevent a change of control of the Company that could otherwise be beneficial<br> to minority shareholders. A10 Fund generally will have the ability to control the outcome<br> of any matter submitted for the vote or consent of the Company’s shareholders. In some<br> cases, the interests of A10 Fund may not be the same as those of the other minority shareholders,<br> and conflicts of interest may arise from time to time that may be resolved in a manner detrimental<br> to the Company or minority shareholders (including conflicts of interests that result from<br> certain officers and directors being involved with the A10 Fund). The effect of this influence<br> may be to limit the price that investors are willing to pay for Common Shares.
--- ---

In addition, the potential that A10 Fund may sell Common Shares in the public market or in private transactions, as well as any actual sales of Common Shares in the public market or in private transactions, could adversely affect the market price of the Common Shares.

Risks Related to cyber-security

The Company is subject to risks associated with its information technology systems and cyber-security, such as the misappropriation of the Company’s confidential information noted above, the disclosure of which could have an adverse effect on the Company.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the financial position reporting date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

§ Valuation of share-based payment transactions: The valuation of the Company’s share-based<br> payment transactions requires the use of estimates and valuation techniques. Measurement<br> of the Company’s RSUs that contain market-based conditions is based on a Monte Carlo<br> pricing model which uses various inputs and assumptions. Changes in these assumptions result<br> in changes in the fair value of these instruments and a corresponding change in the amount<br> recognized in profit or loss. Judgement is also required in determining grant date and in<br> estimating when non-market performance conditions are expected to be met.
§ Mineral reserves and mineral resources: Proven and probable mineral reserves are the economically<br> mineable parts of the Company’s measured and indicated mineral resources demonstrated<br> by at least a preliminary feasibility study. The Company estimates its proven and probable<br> mineral reserves and measured and indicated and inferred mineral resources based on information<br> compiled by appropriately qualified persons. The estimation of future cash flows related<br> to proven and probable mineral reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of commodity<br> prices, foreign exchange rates, future capital requirements and production costs along with<br> geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the size and grade of the mineral<br> ore body. Changes in the proven and probable mineral reserves or measured and indicated and<br> inferred mineral resources estimates may impact the carrying value of the property, plant<br> and equipment, asset retirement obligations, recognition of deferred tax amounts and depreciation,<br> depletion, and amortization.

Changes<br> in any of the assumptions or estimates used in determining the fair value of long-lived assets<br> could impact the impairment analysis. | | --- | --- | | § | Provision for restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation: The Company assesses<br> its provision for restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation on an annual<br> basis or when new material information becomes available. Mining and exploration activities<br> are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment.<br> In general, these laws and regulations are continually changing and the Company has made,<br> and intends to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.<br> Accounting or restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation obligations requires<br> management to make estimates of the future costs the Company will incur to complete the restoration,<br> rehabilitation, and environmental remediation work required to comply with existing laws<br> and regulations at each mining operation. Actual costs incurred may differ from those amounts<br> estimated. Also, future changes to environmental laws and regulations could increase the<br> extent of restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation work required to be<br> performed by the Company. Increase in future costs could materially impact the amounts charged<br> to operations for restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation. The provision<br> represents management’s best estimate of the present value of the future restoration,<br> rehabilitation, and environmental remediation obligation. The actual future expenditures<br> may differ from the amounts currently provided. | | --- | --- |

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date of this MD&A, the Company does not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the financial performance or financial condition of the Company, including, and without limitation, such considerations as liquidity and capital resources.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company manages its capital with the following objectives:

§ To<br> ensure sufficient financial flexibility to achieve its ongoing business objectives, namely<br> funding future growth opportunities (including potential production expansions through the<br> development of the Project’s Phase 2 and Phase 3 deposits); and
§ To<br> maximize shareholder returns through enhancing its share value.
--- ---

The Company monitors its capital structure and adjusts according to market conditions to meet its objectives, given the current outlook of the business and industry in general. The Company may manage its capital structure by issuing new shares, raising debt, repurchasing outstanding shares, adjusting capital spending, or disposing of assets. The capital structure is reviewed by management and the Board on an ongoing basis.

The Company considers its capital to be equity, comprising share capital, contributed surplus, accumulated other comprehensive loss and deficit, which on September 30, 2023, totaled $220.2 million (September 30, 2022: $183.1 million). The Company’s capital management objectives, policies, and processes remained unchanged during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The Company manages capital through its financial and operational forecasting processes. The Company reviews its operating expenditures, and other investing and financing initiatives based on activities related to the Project.

FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk (including interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, and price risk).

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, export prepayment agreement, due from related party and note payable approximate their carrying values due to the short term to maturity of these financial instruments.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and cash equivalents and to accounts receivable from customers. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held with established institutions for which management believes the risk of loss to be remote.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. To the extent the Company does not believe it has sufficient liquidity to meet obligations, it will actively manage its expenses along with capital expenditures, while it seeks additional equity or debt funding.

As of September 30, 2023, the carrying amount of the financial liabilities, measured using the amortized cost method are described below. Their corresponding maturities are evidenced below:

Contractual Obligations Up to 1 Year 1-3 Years 4-5 Years >5 Years Total
Suppliers 37,425 37,425
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 13,085 2,354 15,439
Export prepayment agreement 27,298 118,712 146,010
BDMG 344 1,305 1,252 1,499 4,400
Lease liabilities 2,089 2,523 1,203 405 6,220

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company has cash and cash equivalent balances. The Company’s current policy is to invest surplus cash balances with high rated banks in the jurisdictions it has a presence in, such as Canada and Brazil. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $38.1 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s exposure to risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to interest earned on its cash balances.

This risk arises from short and long-term financial investments, financing and export prepayment linked to fixed and floating interest rates of the CDI (Selic) e BSBY, exposing these financial assets and liabilities to interest rate fluctuations as shown in the sensitivity analysis framework.

The effects on assets and liabilities, considering scenarios 1 and 2 are shown below:

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company’s functional currency is Real and the presentation currency is the Canadian dollar and certain purchases and salaries are held in Canadian dollars. The Company also has significant balances in U.S. dollars that are subject to foreign currency risk.

The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and cash equivalents, receivables, export prepayment agreement, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars.

The Company had the following balances in the prescribed currencies:

Forward-Looking Information involves significant risks and uncertainties, should not be read as guarantees of future performance or results, and does not necessarily provide accurate indications of whether or not such results will be achieved. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the Forward-Looking Information, which is based upon what management believes are reasonable assumptions, and there can be no assurance that actual results will be consistent with the Forward-Looking Information.

In particular (but without limitation), this MD&A contains Forward Looking Information with respect to the following matters: statements regarding anticipated decision making with respect to the Project; capital expenditure programs; estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves; development of mineral resources and mineral reserves; government regulation of mining operations and treatment under governmental and taxation regimes; the future price of commodities, including lithium; the realization of mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates, including whether mineral resources will ever be developed into mineral reserves; the timing and amount of future production; currency exchange and interest rates; expected outcome and timing of environmental surveys and permit applications and other environmental matters; potential positive or negative implications of change in government; the Company’s ability to raise capital and obtain project financing; expected expenditures to be made by the Company on its properties; successful operations and the timing, cost, quantity, capacity and quality of production; capital costs, operating costs and sustaining capital requirements, including the cost of construction of the processing plant for the Project; and competitive conditions and the ongoing uncertainties and effects in respect of the military conflict in Ukraine.

Forward-Looking Information does not take into account the effect of transactions or other items announced or occurring after the statements are made. Forward-Looking Information is based upon a number of expectations and assumptions and is subject to several risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those disclosed in or implied by such Forward-Looking Information. With respect to the Forward-Looking Information, the Company has made assumptions regarding, among other things:

§ General<br> economic and political conditions (including but not limited to the impact of the continuance<br> or escalation of the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and economic sanctions<br> in relation thereto).

Although management believes that the assumptions and expectations reflected in such Forward-Looking Information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that these assumptions and expectations will prove to be correct. Since Forward-Looking Information inherently involves risks and uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on such information.

In addition, Forward Looking Information with respect to the potential outlook and future financial results contained in this MD&A is based on assumptions noted above and about future events, including economic conditions and proposed courses of action, based on management's assessment of the relevant information available as at the date of such information. Readers are cautioned that any such information should not be used for purposes other than for which it is disclosed.

The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any Forward-Looking Information as a result of various known and unknown risk factors, including (but not limited to) the risk factors referred to under the heading “Risk Factors” in this MD&A. Such risks relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

§ There<br> can be no assurance that market prices for lithium will remain at current levels or that<br> such prices will improve.

No assurance can be given that such estimates will be achieved. | | --- | --- | | § | The<br> Company may experience unexpected costs and cost overruns, problems and delays during construction,<br> development, mine start-up and operations for reasons outside of the Company’s control,<br> which have the potential to materially affect its ability to fully fund required expenditures<br> and/or production or, alternatively, may require the Company to consider less attractive<br> financing solutions. | | --- | --- | | § | The<br> Company’s capital and operating cost estimates may vary from actual costs and revenues<br> for reasons outside of the Company’s control. | | --- | --- | | § | The<br> Company’s operations are subject to the high degree of risk normally incidental to<br> the exploration for, and the development and operation of, mineral properties. | | --- | --- | | § | Insurance<br> may not be available to insure against all such risks, or the costs of such insurance may<br> be uneconomic. Losses from uninsured and underinsured losses have the potential to materially<br> affect the Company’s financial position and prospects. | | --- | --- |

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDINGMINERAL RESERVE & MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATES

Technical disclosure regarding the Company’s properties included in this document has not been prepared in accordance with the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Without limiting the foregoing, such technical disclosure uses terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada and estimates are made in accordance with NI 43-101. Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates contained in the technical disclosure have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards.

NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. NI 43-101 differs significantly from the disclosure requirements of the SEC generally applicable to U.S. companies. Accordingly, information contained in this MD&A is not comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies reporting pursuant to SEC disclosure requirements.

MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITYFOR FINANCIAL REPORTING

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Sigma Lithium Corporation (the "Company") are the responsibility of management and have been approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management on a going concern basis in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). When alternative accounting methods exist, management has chosen those it deems most appropriate in the circumstances. Financial statements are not exact since they include certain amounts based on estimates and judgments. Management has determined such amounts on a reasonable basis in order to ensure that the interim consolidated financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects.

The Board is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibilities for financial reporting and is ultimately responsible for reviewing and approving the interim consolidated financial statements. The Board carries out this responsibility principally through its Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee is appointed by the Board, and all of its members are independent directors. The Audit Committee meets at least four times a year with management, and with the independent auditors, at least for the year-end audit, to discuss internal controls over the financial reporting process, auditing matters and financial reporting issues, to satisfy itself that each party is properly discharging its responsibilities, and to review the quarterly unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year and the independent auditors’ report thereof. The Audit Committee reports its findings to the Board for consideration when approving the consolidated financial statements for issuance to the shareholders. The Audit Committee also considers, for review by the Board and approval by the shareholders, the engagement of the independent auditors. KPMG Auditores Independentes Ltda is the independent auditor engaged for 2023 audit

(Expressed in thousandsof Canadian dollars, except per share amounts, and number of shares, unless otherwise indicated)

1. Nature of operations

Sigma Lithium Corporation (the “Company”), together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, is leading global producer of green lithium dedicated to powering the next generation of electric vehicles with carbon neutral, responsibly sourced chemical grade lithium concentrate. Sigma Lithium has been at the forefront of environmental and social sustainability in the EV battery materials supply chain and it is currently producing Triple Zero Green Lithium from its Grota do Cirilo Project in Brazil. Phase 1 of the project is expected to produce 270,000 tonnes of Triple Zero Green Lithium annually (36,700 LCE annually). If it is determined to proceed after completion of an ongoing feasibility study, Phase 2 & 3 of the project are expected to increase production to 766,000 tonnes annually (or 104,200 LCE annually). The project produces Triple Zero Green Lithium in its state-of-the-art Greentech lithium plant that uses 100% renewable energy, 100% recycled water and 100% dry-stacked tailings.

The company is located in Vancouver, Canada and incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Company’s common shares commenced trading on Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “SGML” and on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) under the symbol “SGML”.

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Sigma Lithium Holdings Inc. (“Sigma Holdings”), which is domiciled in Canada and incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia), and its indirect wholly owned Brazil-incorporated subsidiary Sigma Mineração

S.A. (“Sigma Brazil”).

Sigma Brazil holds a 100% interest in four mineral properties: Grota do Cirilo, São Jose, Santa Clara, and Genipapo, located in the municipalities of Araçuaí and Itinga, in the Vale do Jequitinhonha region (referred as thereafter as “Jequitinhonha Valley”) in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil (together, the “Lithium Properties”).

On July 24, 2023 Sigma Lithium began trading its Brazilian Depositary Receipts (“BDR’s”) on B3, the Brazilian Stock Exchange. The listing was an initiative of the B3 exchange itself, in an effort to make the stock more accessible to Brazilian retail and institutional investors. The BDRs are unsponsored and count on B3 as depositary and Sigma has no awareness of the volume and prices traded. The unsponsored BDRs are not regulated by the Brazilian Securities Exchange (CVM).

The Company's sales operations began in July 2023 and in the third quarter the company had signed contracts to sell 70,285 tonnes of Green Lithium and Green By-Products. Exploration work is still ongoing, with focus on increasing the Company's total mineral resource estimate.

Going Concern

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis on the assumption that the Company will continue to operate for the next 12 (twelve) months and foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of its business.

2. Basis of preparation

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting.

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by IFRS for annual audited consolidated financial statements and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.

The accounting policies, accounting estimates and judgments, risk management and measurement methods applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, except for the new accounting policies below, that is being adopted for the first time on these quarterly financials:

· Note<br> 5 – Inventories;
· Note<br> 13 – Income tax and social contributions;
· Note<br> 21 – Net operating revenue.

(Expressed in thousandsof Canadian dollars, except per share amounts, and number of shares, unless otherwise indicated)

Function currency and presentation currency

A company's functional currency is the currency of the main economic environment in which it operates and should be the currency that best reflects its business and operations. Based on this analysis, Management has concluded that the Brazilian Real ("R$") is the Company's functional currency and this conclusion is based on an analysis of the following indicators:

· Currency<br> that most influences the prices of goods and services. This is the currency in which the<br> selling price of its goods and services is expressed and settled;
· Currency<br> that most influences costs for supplying products or services, i.e. the currency in which<br> the Parent Company's costs are normally expressed and settled;
--- ---
· Currency<br> in which the Parent Company normally raises funds from financial activities, and in which<br> it normally receives its sales and accumulates cash.
--- ---

Presentation currency of the financial statements:

The presentation currency is the currency in which the financial statements are presented and is usually defined according to the Company's legal obligations. In compliance with Canadian legislation, these financial statements are presented in Canadian Dollars ("CAD"), converting the consolidated statements prepared in the Parent Company's functional currency into Canadian Dollars, using the following criteria:

· Assets<br> and liabilities at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date;
· Income<br> statement, statement of comprehensive income, statement of cash flows and statement of value<br> added at the average monthly rate; and
--- ---
· Shareholders'<br> equity at historical formation value. The adjustments resulting from the above conversion<br> have their counterpart recognized in shareholders' equity as other comprehensive income.
--- ---

Asset and liability accounts are converted into the Company's functional currency using the exchange rates in force on the balance sheet date, and income and expense items are converted using the average monthly rate. Adjustments resulting from translation are recognized in equity as other comprehensive income.

The balances of assets and liabilities accounts are converted at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. On September 30, 2023, CAD $1 was equivalent to R$ 3.6982 (R$3.9021 on December 31, 2022) and US$ 1 was equivalent to R$5.0076 (R$ 5.287 on December 31, 2022), according to rates extracted from the Brazilian Central Bank website.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the financial position reporting date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

§ Valuation of share-based payment transactions: The valuation of the Company’s share-based<br> payment transactions requires the use of estimates and valuation techniques. Measurement<br> of the Company’s RSUs that contain market-based conditions is based on a Monte Carlo<br> pricing model which uses various inputs and assumptions. Changes in these assumptions result<br> in changes in the fair value of these instruments and a corresponding change in the amount<br> recognized in profit or loss. Judgement is also required in determining grant date and in<br> estimating when non-market performance conditions are expected to be met.

(Expressed in thousandsof Canadian dollars, except per share amounts, and number of shares, unless otherwise indicated)

§ Mineral reserves and mineral resources: Proven and probable mineral reserves are the economically<br> mineable parts of the Company’s measured and indicated mineral resources demonstrated<br> by at least a preliminary feasibility study. The Company estimates its proven and probable<br> mineral reserves and measured and indicated and inferred mineral resources based on information<br> compiled by appropriately qualified persons. The estimation of future cash flows related<br> to proven and probable mineral reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of commodity<br> prices, foreign exchange rates, future capital requirements and production costs along with<br> geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the size and grade of the mineral<br> ore body. Changes in the proven and probable mineral reserves or measured and indicated and<br> inferred mineral resources estimates may impact the carrying value of the property, plant<br> and equipment, asset retirement obligations, recognition of deferred tax amounts and depreciation,<br> depletion, and amortization.
§ Valuation of long-lived assets: The assessment of fair values, including those of the CGUs for<br> purposes of testing long-lived assets for potential impairment or reversal of impairment,<br> require the use of assumptions and estimates for recoverable production, future capital requirements<br> and operating performance, as contained in the Company’s technical reports, as well<br> as future and long-term commodity prices, discount rates, and foreign exchange rates. Changes<br> in any of the assumptions or estimates used in determining the fair value of long-lived assets<br> could impact the impairment analysis.
--- ---
§ Provision for restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation: The Company assesses<br> its provision for restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation on an annual<br> basis or when new material information becomes available. Mining and exploration activities<br> are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment.<br> In general, these laws and regulations are continually changing and the Company has made,<br> and intends to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws and regulations.<br> Accounting or restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation obligations requires<br> management to make estimates of the future costs the Company will incur to complete the restoration,<br> rehabilitation, and environmental remediation work required to comply with existing laws<br> and regulations at each mining operation. Actual costs incurred may differ from those amounts<br> estimated. Also, future changes to environmental laws and regulations could increase the<br> extent of restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation work required to be<br> performed by the Company. Increase in future costs could materially impact the amounts charged<br> to operations for restoration, rehabilitation, and environmental remediation. The provision<br> represents management’s best estimate of the present value of the future restoration,<br> rehabilitation, and environmental remediation obligation. The actual future expenditures<br> may differ from the amounts currently provided.

New IFRS Pronouncements

Amendments to IAS 1 – Presentation ofFinancial Statements

In October 2022, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements titled Non-current liabilities with covenants. These amendments sought to improve the information that an entity provides when its right to defer settlement of a liability is subject to compliance with covenants within 12 months after the reporting period. These amendments to IAS 1 override but incorporate the previous amendments, Classification of liabilities as current or non-current, issued in January 2020, which clarified that liabilities are classified as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Liabilities should be classified as non-current if a company has a substantive right to defer settlement for at least 12 months at the end of the reporting period. The amendments are effective January 1, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is required on adoption. We do not expect these amendments to have a material effect on Q3 2023 Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial statements.

Amendment to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement2 – Disclosure of Accounting Policies

In February 2021, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements and the IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements to provide guidance on the application of materiality judgments to accounting policy disclosures. The amendments to IAS 1 replace the requirement to disclose significant accounting policies with a requirement to disclose material accounting policies. Guidance and illustrative examples are added in the Practice Statement to assist in the application of the materiality concept when making judgments about accounting policy disclosures. The amendments are effective as of January 1^st^, 2023. Prospective application is required on adoption. These amendments did not impact the Q3 2023 Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial statements.

Accountingpolicy

Trade receivables are recognized at the transaction price, provided that they do not contain financing components, and are subsequently measured and amortized cost, when applicable, adjusted to present value, including the related taxes and expenses, and foreign currency-denominated trade receivables are adjusted at the exchange rate in use at the end of the report period.

The receivables are composed by the value of the invoices issued (quantities, moisture ratio and primary quality content). The value based on the market price, at the date of shipment, as established by the contract of each customer.

The final invoices, which end the export operations and are generally issued after receipt and analysis of the commodities (approval of quantities, moisture ratio and content of the mineral contained by the customers), are valued as each contract is established.

The result of the necessary price adjustments, both for the issuance of the final bills and for the marking to market, is recognized within the sales revenues at the time the adjustments are incurred.

The Company periodically measures eventual possibilities of credit losses. The model adopted by the Company considers the history and financial conditions of its customers. The Company did not recognize any credit losses in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

AccountingPolicy

Current income tax and social contribution are calculated based on the tax laws enacted by the end of the reporting period, including in the countries where the Group entities operate and generate taxable profit. Management periodically assesses the positions taken in the tax calculations with respect to situations where applicable tax regulations are open to interpretations. The Company recognizes provisions where appropriate, based on the estimated payments to tax authorities. The income tax and social contribution expense comprises current and deferred taxes. Current and deferred taxes are recognized in profit or loss unless they are related to business combinations or items recognized directly in shareholders' equity.

Current tax expense is the expected payment of taxable income for the year, using the nominal rate approved or substantially approved on the balance sheet date, and any adjustment of taxes payable related to previous years. Current income tax and social contribution are presented net liabilities when there are amounts payable, or in assets when the amounts in advance paid exceed the total due on the date of the report.

Deferred tax is recognized in relation to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their book values in the financial statements. Deferred tax is not recognized when it is probable that they will not revert in a foreseeable future in accordance with IAS 12 - Taxes on Profit. The amount of the deferred tax determined is based on the expectation of realization or settlement of the temporary difference and uses the nominal rate approved or substantially approved.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are presented net in the balance sheet whenever there is a legal right and the intention to offset them upon the calculation of current taxes, usually related to the same legal entity and the same taxation authority.

Deferred income tax and social contribution assets are recognized on recoverable balances of tax loss carryforward and social contribution negative basis, tax credits and deductible temporary differences. Such assets are reviewed at each year-end date and will be reduced to the extent that their realization is less likely to occur.

· Sensitivity analysis of interest rate variations

The Company considered scenarios 1 and 2 as 10% and 20% of changes in interest volatility as of September 30, 2023.

The currencies used in the sensitivity analysis and their respective scenarios are shown below:

Interest Interest<br> rate Scenario<br> 1 Scenario<br> 2

(*) The sensitivity analysis is based on the assumption of maintaining, as a probable scenario, the market values as of October 31, 2023, recognized in the company's assets and liabilities.

· Market price risk:

The Company is also exposed to market risks related to commodity and inputs price volatility. In line with its risk management policy, risk mitigation strategies involving commodities can be used to reduce cash flow volatility.

· Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to receivables.

· Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. To the extent the Company does not believe it has sufficient liquidity to meet obligations, it will consider securing additional equity or debt funding.

Sale contracts at provisional prices – Commodity price risk arises from the volatility of lithium oxide (“Li2O”) prices. The selling price of these products can be reliably measured in each period, since the price is based on market reference prices. As a result, the fair value of the final adjustment to the sales price is continually revalued and changes in fair value are recognized as sales revenue in the income statement.

AccountingPolicy

The Company recognizes its revenues once all the following conditions are satisfied:

· Identification<br> of the contract for sale of goods or prevision of services;
· Identification<br> of the performance obligations;
· Determination<br> of the contract value;
· Determination<br> of the value allocated to each performance obligation included int the contract; and
· Revenue<br> recognition over time or at the time performance obligation completed.

The Company recognizes revenues from sales when control of the product is transferred to customers, which generally occurs, in the case of export sales, when the product is loaded on the ship.

The export is realized pursuant to the Incoterms “Cost, Insurance and Freight – CIF” and “Cost and Freight – CFR” include sea freight service embedded in the same invoice. In this case, the performance obligation of the sea freight service is considered separately from the shipment of lithium and the Company recognizes revenue from the provision of this service upon delivery of the goods to the destination specified by customers.

Operating revenue from the sale of goods in the regular course of business is measured at the fair value of the consideration entity expects to receive in exchange for the delivery of the goods or services promised to the customers.

For the portion of the Company’s lithium export sales pursuant to the Incoterms “Cost, Insurance and Freight – CIF” and “Cost and Freight – CFR”, the obligation to pay for the goods and the sea freight service, which is embedded in the same invoice, generally arises when the product is loaded on the ship. The Company hires and, in some cases, pays the sea freight service in advance, the amount paid is recognized as an asset, advance to suppliers, until arrival at the port of destination, at which time it is booked in the Profit and Loss as freight expense.

Concurrently, the Company recognizes the price of the sea freight service, for which it is responsible, as liabilities on advance of customers, until arrival at the port of destination, at which time the Company fulfills its performance obligation for the sea freight service and, thus, recognizes the revenue for the provision of this service.

The Company generally realizes advances to suppliers and advances from customers as freight expenses and revenue for sea freight services provided, respectively, within one month. Such revenue allocated to freight does not significantly affect the profit and loss of the Company’s fiscal year and, therefore, it is not presented separately in the interim consolidated financial statements. For other services rendered, revenue is recognized based on its realization.

(Expressed in thousandsof Canadian dollars, except per share amounts, and number of shares, unless otherwise indicated)

The expense for these RSUs have been valued based on the Company’s share price at the grant date and charged as an expense for the year ended December 31, 2022.

An additional aggregate 500,000 RSUs granted to the CEO was considered vested by the Board on August 29^th^, 2023, upon approval by the Board of Directors of the plan to achieve a net zero carbon target and its subsequent successful execution. Since the Board has approved the plan to achieve the net zero carbon target, the Company has accrued the additional aggregate of 500,000 RSUs.

^(2)^ On April 5, 2022, the Compensation Committee, delegated by the Board, approved the grant of 50,000 fully vested RSUs to a key consultant of the Company.

^(3)^ On July 20, 2022, the Board approved the grant of 1,000,000 RSUs to the COO of the Company. These RSUs would vest upon the achievement of specific operational goals (“milestones”). These RSUs contain certain non-market performance conditions and were valued using the Company’s share price on grant date. Such performance conditions relate to the achievement of the plant commissioning within a specific forecast, as well as the production of spodumene concentrate with detailed specification throughout a certain period. During the three months period ended September 30, 2023, the COO resigned from the Company. Accordingly, 600,000 RSUs mentioned above have been cancelled.

^(4)^ On August 5, 2022, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with an individual, where a total amount of 250,000 RSUs were awarded, being 120,000 immediately vested RSUs, 40,000 RSUs vesting on October 10, 2023 and 40,000 RSUs vesting on October 10, 2024, all of which are subject to Board approval and confirmation by the Compensation Committee, delegated by the Board.

^(5)^ On October 28, 2022, the Compensation Committee, delegated by the Board, approved the grant of 1,332,332 fully vested RSUs to key employees, directors and designated service providers of the Company. These RSUs were previously accounted for and adjusted once the Compensation Committee approved the grant.

^(6)^ On December 1, 2022, the Company entered into compensation agreements with four of its directors, where they were awarded a total of 295,000 RSUs. Out of this total, 235,000 RSUs were subject to time-based vesting and 60,000 RSUs will vest on the achievement of an increase in the market capitalization of the Company to US$4 billion, conditional to the approval by the Compensation Committee, as delegated by the Board. Therefore, the Company has used a Monte Carlo Simulation methodology to determine the grant date fair value of the 60,000 RSUs. Those RSUs were fully accounted as an expense up to June 30, 2023, when became vested.

^(7)^ For the year ended December 31, 2022, the weighted average grant date fair value of RSUs amounted to $36.34.

^(8)^ For 2,382,332 RSUs, upon receiving Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approval, the Company revised the earlier fair value estimate so that the amounts recognized for services received in respect of the grant are based on the grant date fair value. As 1,047,500 RSUs are subject to Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approval, the Company valued the RSUs based on fair value on December 31, 2022. Once a grant date under IFRS has been established, the Company will revise the earlier estimate so that the amounts recognized for services received in respect of the grant are based on the grant date fair value.

^(9)^ On March 22, 2023, the Compensation Committee, delegated by the Board, approved the grant of 140,333 fully vested RSUs to key employees, directors and designated service providers of the Company. These RSUs were previously accounted for and adjusted once the Compensation Committee approved the grant.

^(10)^ On June 29, 2023, the Compensation Committee, delegated by the Board, approved the grant of 928,259 RSUs to key employees, directors and designated service providers of the Company. Some of these RSUs were previously accounted for and adjusted once the Compensation Committee approved the grant.

^(11^^)^For 1,068,592 RSUs, upon receiving Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approval, the Company revised the earlier fair value estimate so that the amounts recognized for services received in respect of the grant are based on the grant date fair value. As 42,000 RSUs are subject to Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approval, the Company valued the RSUs based on fair value as of June 30, 2023. Once a grant date under IFRS has been established, the Company will revise the earlier estimate so that the amounts recognized for services received in respect of the grant are based on the grant date fair value.

(Expressed in thousandsof Canadian dollars, except per share amounts, and number of shares, unless otherwise indicated)

^(12)^ On August 14, 2023, the Compensation Committee resolved (i) to forfeit 500,000 RSUs originally granted to the former director, given that he is no longer a director or the co-CEO of the Company, and the successful execution of the net zero carbon did not occur while he occupied such positions; (ii) to recommend to the Board the approval of a potential grant of 725,000 RSUs and 100,000 Options, to certain officers, directors, employees, and services providers of the Company; (iii) to grant 494,833.67 RSUs to certain officers, employees, and services providers of the Company, as delegated by the Board, being the vesting subject to time and performance metrics; and (iv) to forfeit 40,000 RSUs originally granted to a former consultant, due to the lack of exercise in time and resignation of his services to Sigma.

^(13)^ On September 11, 2023, the Board approved the grant of 146,500 RSUS to the new independent directors of the Company, as recommended by the Compensation Committee.

^(14)^ As an update of note (11) above, for 1,709,926 RSUs, upon receiving Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approval, the Company revised the earlier fair value estimate so that the amounts recognized for services received in respect of the grant are based on the grant date fair value. As 20,000 RSUs are subject to Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approval, the Company valued the RSUs based on fair value as of September 30, 2023. Once a grant date under IFRS has been established, the Company will revise the earlier estimate so that the amounts recognized for services received in respect of the grant are based on the grant date fair value.

The unaudited total stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, in shareholders’ equity was $(1,706) and $57,076, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $19,419 and $44,586), being $(2,392) and 46,626 recorded as stock-based compensation expense (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $14,219 and 38,853) and the remaining portion were recorded in exploration and evaluation assets was $573 and 9,488 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $1,074 and $1,076) and property, plant and equipment was $113 and $963 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $3,840 and $4,659).
