Ha. No, it seems the governance of this outfit is a bit lacking, if that "Please Explain" is how they do business

• As at 31 December 2024, cash burn $762K with 3.87 quarters of funding left in the piggy bank;
• Nico closed the quarter with cash and working capital of $2,951,522;
• Exploration and Evaluation expenditure during the quarter was $214,679; and
• December 2024 quarterly highlights (see attached):

• Nickel price has halved in the last 2 years due to massive supply from Indonesia (western world supply at 30 year lows);
• All nickel stocks have underperformed the metal price - deep into the cost curve and around 50% of operations are loss making at the current price; and
• It is difficult to see much downside from current prices and demand growth is still strong at around 5%pa (driven by stainless steel) – additional 1.5 million tonnes pa required by 2030

• As at 31 December 2024, cash burn $762K with 3.87 quarters of funding left in the piggy bank;
• Nico closed the quarter with cash and working capital of $2,951,522;
• Exploration and Evaluation expenditure during the quarter was $214,679; and
• December 2024 quarterly highlights (see attached):

High Pressure acid Leach (“HPAL”) bench scale metallurgical testwork was completed in the September quarter and the final reports from ALS Laboratories were received during the December quarter. Further review and analysis of the results of the metallurgical testwork was undertaken during the quarter. The metallurgical testwork has delivered improved results and the production of a saleable nickel-cobalt product from Wingellina ore. 
The Wingellina project was awarded Major Project Status by the Federal Government which recognises its national significance and importance in the energy transition. 
Nico has received a tax refund of $1.04 million relating to the Company’s Research and Development activities for the 2024 financial year. Following the completion of the upgraded Independent Mineral Resource Estimate for the Wingellina Project, Nico commenced the development of a geometallurgical model for the project during the quarter. It is anticipated this model will be complete before the end of the current quarter. 
The company continued to reduce discretionary expenditure during the quarter in light of the current metals price environment and short term outlook. The Company remains confident that nickel prices will strengthen in the medium term.
