Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the six and three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

(Expressed in US Dollars)

1. Nature of Operations

NextSource Materials Inc. (the "Company" or “NextSource”) was continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act from the State of Minnesota to Canada on December 27, 2017 and has a fiscal year end of June 30. The Company's registered head office and primary location of records is 130 King Street West, Exchange Tower, Suite 1940, Toronto, Ontario Canada, M5X 2A2. The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the symbol “NEXT” and the OTCQB under the symbol “NSRCF”.

NextSource is intent on becoming a vertically integrated global supplier of battery materials through the mining and value-added processing of graphite and other minerals.

·	On March 29, 2021, the Company announced the initiation of construction for Phase 1 of the Molo Graphite Mine, located in Madagascar, with a production capacity of 17,000 tpa of SuperFlake® graphite concentrate. Significant construction activities related to the processing plant and the mining camp were completed in January 2023. Plant commissioning is expected to be completed in March 2023 followed by a ramp up period of up to three months prior to declaring commercial production.

·	On April 27, 2022, the Company released a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) considering a Phase 2 expansion of the Molo Graphite Mine consisting of a stand-alone processing plant with a production capacity of 150,000 tpa. The Company initiated a Feasibility Study and a front-end engineering design (“FEED”) study for the Phase 2 expansion considered in the PEA. Completion of the Feasibility Study and the FEED study are expected in early 2023. Prior to making a Phase 2 construction decision, the Company will consider the results of the Feasibility and FEED studies as well as Phase 1 operational results.

·	The Company is planning to build battery anode facilities (“BAF”), which are value-added processing facilities that convert flake graphite into coated spheronized purified graphite (“CSPG”). The BAFs will be designed with modular production capacities that can expand in lockstep with demand from key markets in Asia, North America, and Europe. The Company has an exclusive technical partnership to utilize a proprietary and well-established processing technology that already supplies major EV automotive companies, including the Tesla and Toyota supply chains. Technical and economic studies for the first BAF plant are expected to be completed in early 2023.

·	The Company also owns the Green Giant Vanadium Project, located in Madagascar, and the Sagar Project, located in Quebec, both of which are at the exploration and evaluation stage.

Operation of the Molo Graphite Mine is expected to begin in early 2023. The Company has not previously operated any mines or processing facilities, and no commercial revenues have been generated from any mineral resources. The Company does not pay dividends and is unlikely to do so in the immediate or foreseeable future.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) on February 10, 2023.

2. Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

Statement of compliance with IFRS

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance and comply with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) using accounting principles consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by IFRS for annual audited consolidated financial statements.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2022 annual audited consolidated financial statements, including the accounting policies and notes thereto, included in the Annual Information Form/Form 40-F for the year ended June 30, 2022, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS.

In the opinion of management, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and the results of operations and cash flows for the six and three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Operating results for the six and three months ended December 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending June 30, 2023.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the six and three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

(Expressed in US Dollars)

2. Basis of Presentation and Going Concern (continued)

Basis of measurement

The accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business, under the historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value, as explained in the accounting policies below.

Basis of consolidation

NextSource owns 100% of NextSource Materials (Mauritius) Ltd. (“MATMAU”), a Mauritius subsidiary, and 2391938 Ontario Inc., an Ontario Company. MATMAU owns 100% of NextSource Minerals (Mauritius) Ltd. (“MINMAU”), a Mauritius subsidiary, NextSource Graphite (Mauritius) Ltd (“GRAMAU”), a Mauritius subsidiary, and NextSource Materials (Madagascar) SARLU (“MATMAD”), a Madagascar subsidiary. MINMAU owns 100% of NextSource Minerals (Madagascar) SARLU (“MINMAD”), a Madagascar subsidiary. GRAMAU owns 100% of ERG (Madagascar) SARLU (“ERGMAD”), a Madagascar subsidiary.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the financial position, results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances, transactions, income and expenses, profits and losses, including gains and losses relating to subsidiaries have been eliminated on consolidation.

Going Concern Assumption

The accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management considers all available information about the future, which is at least, but not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore need to realize its assets and liquidate its liabilities and commitments in other than the normal course of business at amounts different from those in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $17,158,316 (June 30, 2022: $9,793,253) which is sufficient to fund the remaining construction for Phase 1 of the Molo Graphite Mine, the BAF technical study, the Phase 2 Feasibility Study, general and administrative costs, and working capital requirements during the next twelve months.

3. Accounting policies

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as disclosed in Note 3 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to IAS 16)

On May 14, 2020, the IASB issued Property, Plant and Equipment — Proceeds before Intended Use (Amendments to IAS 16) that clarify the accounting for the net proceeds from selling any items produced while bringing an item of property, plant and mine development to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. The amendments prohibit entities from deducting amounts received from selling items produced from the cost of property, plant and mine development while the Company is preparing the asset for its intended use. Instead, sales proceeds and the cost of producing these items will be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022, with earlier application permitted. The amendments apply retrospectively, but only to assets brought to the location and condition necessary for them to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which the Company first applies the amendments. The Company adopted the standard on the effective date resulting in no retrospective changes to its consolidated financial statements.

4. Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions

To prepare financial statements in conformity with IFRS, the Company must make estimates, judgements and assumptions concerning the future that affect the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported values of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. By their nature, these are uncertain and actual outcomes could differ from the estimates, judgments and assumptions. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and also in future periods when the revision affects both current and future periods. Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. The areas involving significant judgments, estimates and assumptions have been detailed in Note 4 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Molo Graphite Mine Development

On February 15, 2019, the Company received a 40-year mining license for the Molo Graphite Mine, located in Madagascar, that does not limit mining to any specific volume. On March 29, 2021, the Company announced the initiation of construction of Phase 1 with a production capacity of 17,000 tpa of SuperFlake® graphite concentrate and began capitalizing Phase 1 development costs. The construction budget for Phase 1 of the Molo Graphite Mine is $24.0 million plus $6.3 million for working capital. As of December 31, 2022, the Company estimated remaining Phase 1 construction costs of $2.7 million and working capital investments of $3.4 million.

On April 27, 2022, the Company released a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) considering a Phase 2 expansion of the Molo Graphite Mine consisting of a stand-alone processing plant with a production capacity of 150,000 tpa. The Company initiated a Feasibility Study and a front-end engineering design (“FEED”) study for the Phase 2 expansion considered in the PEA and began capitalizing Phase 2 development costs. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had capitalized Phase 2 development costs of $1.6 million.

BAF Plant Development

The Company has an exclusive technical partnership to utilize a proprietary and well-established processing technology that already supplies major EV automotive companies, including the Tesla and Toyota supply chains. One of the partners will design and develop the process flowsheets, source all necessary equipment, and will provide all necessary training and operational know-how and in return will receive a 2% licensing royalty. Whereas the other partner will leverage its sales relationships and act as agent for sales, marketing, and trading and in return will receive a 3% sales commission royalty. The Company is completing technical studies and began capitalizing BAF development costs. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had capitalized BAF development costs of $0.6 million.

Exploration and Evaluation Expenditures

The Company owns the Green Giant Vanadium Project, located in Madagascar, and the Sagar Project, located in Quebec, which are at the exploration and evaluation stage. Since early 2012, the Company has focused its efforts on the Molo Graphite Project and as such only limited work has been completed on these properties. Exploration and evaluation expenditures have not been capitalized.

7. Molo Mine Royalty obligations

Vision Blue

On February 8, 2021, the Company announced a financing agreement with Vision Blue for gross proceeds of $29.5 million consisting of private placements and a royalty financing agreement. As part of the royalty financing agreement:

	(a)	The Company received the initial royalty funding of $8.0 million (less a $1.5 million royalty financing fee) on June 28, 2021 and received the remaining $3.0 million on August 17, 2022.
	(b)	Beginning on the biannual period ending June 30, 2022, the Company must pay the greater of: (i) $825,000 (the “Minimum Repayment”) or (ii) 3% of the gross sales revenues from graphite concentrate sales (the “GSR”). Once Vision Blue has received cumulative royalty payments of $16.5 million, the Minimum Repayment will cease, and the royalty will only be based on the GSR. NextSource has the option at any time to reduce the GSR to 2.25% by paying $20 million to Vision Blue. Each of the biannual Minimum Repayments can be deferred by 12 months, subject to accrued interest of 15% per annum.
	(c)	Vision Blue received a royalty of 1.0% of the gross revenues from sales of vanadium pentoxide (“V2O5”) from the Green Giant Vanadium Project for a period of 15 years following commencement of production of V2O5.

On June 30, 2021, the Company recognized a royalty obligation at the fair value of $6.5 million, which was equal to the present value using an effective discount rate of 13.8% of (1) the deferred $3.0 million royalty funding, (2) the minimum royalty payments, (3) the accrued interest on the deferral of minimum royalty payments, and (4) the perpetual 3% GSR for the remaining 30-year life of mine for Phase 1. The discount rate was determined at recognition by calculating the internal rate of return (IRR) of the expected cash flows. Upon recognition, a total of $169,279 of capitalized legal fees was netted against the obligation resulting in an initial carrying value of $6,330,721. The carrying value of the royalty obligation will be remeasured at each reporting period based on the revised expected future cash flows using the original discount rate under the amortized cost method.

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the obligation increased due to accretion of $614,937 and the receipt of the remaining $3.0 million royalty funding. On December 31, 2022, the obligation was remeasured at $11,354,334 (June 30, 2022: $7,731,196) resulting in a remeasurement expense of $8,201 recognized through the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

8. Warrant Derivative Financial Liabilities

Warrants issued in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency are considered a derivative financial liability settled through the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as per IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. The fair value of warrants is initially measured on their issue date as a financial liability using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The fair value of exercised warrants is remeasured on their exercise date and the fair value is reallocated to equity. The fair value of expired warrants is remeasured on their expiration date and at each reporting period date through the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

On October 31, 2022, the warrants expiring on May 19, 2023 were exercised. The fair value was estimated prior to exercise using the following model inputs. The change in fair value was recognized through the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the fair value was reclassified to equity.

13. Restricted Share Units (RSUs)

The fair value of RSUs is based on the grant-day intrinsic value of the shares that are expected to vest by the vesting date. Each RSU entitles the holder to receive a common share of the Company prior to, or on, its expiration date subject to achieving the performance criterion (“milestone”) prior to, or on, its vesting date. The fair value is recorded in equity and expensed through profit and loss over the expected vesting period and is subject to remeasurement at the end of each reporting period based on the probability of achieving the milestone and adjustments for potential forfeitures.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had 430,000 RSUs outstanding (June 30, 2022: 270,000) that subject to satisfying their respective vesting conditions entitle the holders to receive 430,000 common shares (June 30, 2022: 270) for no additional consideration.

16. Capital Management

There were no changes in the Company's approach to capital management during the six months ended December 31, 2022.

The Company’s investment policy is to invest excess cash in very low risk financial instruments such as term deposits or by holding funds in high yield savings accounts with major Canadian banks. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. To date, the Company has funded operations by raising equity and obtaining royalty financing.

The Company manages its capital structure (consisting of shareholders’ deficiency) on an ongoing basis and in response to changes in economic conditions and risk characteristics of its underlying assets. Changes to the capital structure can involve the issuance of new equity, obtaining working capital loans, construction financing, issuing debt, the acquisition or disposition of assets, or adjustments to the amounts held in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.

Capital resource analysis

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital surplus of $13,706,665 (June 30, 2022: deficit of $13,868,626).

The construction budget for Phase 1 of the Molo Graphite Mine is $24.0 million plus an additional $6.3 million for working capital. As of December 31, 2022, the Company estimated remaining Phase 1 construction costs of $2.7 million and working capital investments of $3.4 million.

As a result, the Company believes its capital resources are sufficient to complete construction of Phase 1 of the Molo Graphite Mine, general and administrative costs, Phase 2 and BAF plant studies, and general working capital requirements over the next twelve months. Based on management’s assessment of its past ability to manage capital, the Company believes it will be able to satisfy its current and long-term obligations as they come due. Notwithstanding, the Company may choose to raise additional capital by issuing new equity, obtaining working capital loans, or additional construction financing. While the Company has been successful in obtaining funding in the past, there is no assurance that future financings will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

17. Financial Instruments and Risk Management

Financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, which may include liquidity risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, commodity price risk, and currency risk:

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities. Liquidity risk arises from the Company’s financial obligations and in the management of its assets, liabilities, and capital structure. To minimize liquidity risk, the Company has implemented cost control measures including a construction budget and the minimizing of discretionary expenditures unless the project has sufficient economic or geologic merit.

In managing liquidity, the Company’s primary objective is to ensure the entity can continue as a going concern while obtaining sufficient funding to meet its obligations as they come due. The Company manages this risk by regularly evaluating its liquid financial resources to fund current and long-term obligations and to meet its capital commitments in a cost-effective manner. The main factors that affect liquidity include working capital requirements, capital-expenditure requirements, and equity capital market conditions. The Company’s liquidity requirements are met through a variety of sources, including cash and cash equivalents and equity capital markets.

Except for the following, none of the Company’s obligations have contractual maturities over the next twelve months:

	·	Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, which are generally due within 30 days.
	·	Minimum Repayments under the royalty agreement, which can each be deferred by twelve months.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $17,158,316 (June 30, 2022: $9,793,253) to settle current liabilities of $4,388,099 (June 30, 2022: $24,332,931). As a result, the Company is not currently exposed to liquidity risk.

17. Financial Instruments and Risk Management (continued)

Credit risk

The Company does not have commercial customers and therefore does not have credit risk related to amounts receivables. The Company has credit risk arising from amounts classified as loans to officers. The Company has credit risk arising from the potential from counterparty default on cash and cash equivalents held on deposit with financial institutions. The Company manages this risk by ensuring that deposits are only held with large Canadian banks and financial institutions, whereas any offshore deposits are held with reputable foreign financial institutions. The Company also limits the deposits held with foreign financial institutions.

Interest rate risk

This is the sensitivity of the fair value or of the future cash flows of a financial instrument to changes in interest rates. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities that are subject to variable interest rates.

Commodity price risks

This is the sensitivity of the fair value of, and future cash flows, generated from its mineral projects. The Molo Graphite Mine property and assets under construction are carried at historical cost. As a result, the carrying values are exposed to commodity price risks. Graphite is not a commodity product and therefore does not have an established forward pricing or futures market that could be used to hedge against this exposure. The Company manages this risk by monitoring mineral and commodity price trends to determine the appropriate timing for funding the development, acquisition or disposition of its mineral exploration and development projects.

Currency risk

This is the sensitivity of the fair value or of the future cash flows of financial instruments to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company transacts in currencies other than the US dollar, including the Canadian dollar, the Madagascar Ariary and the South African Rand. The Company purchases services and has certain salary commitments in those foreign currencies. The Company also has monetary and financial instruments that may fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are not used to reduce exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company is not sensitive to foreign exchange exposure since it has not made commitments to deliver products quoted in foreign currencies. Due to construction activities related to the Molo Graphite Mine, the Company is increasing its sensitivity to foreign exchange risk arising from the translation of the financial statements of subsidiaries with a functional currency other than the US dollar whereby changes in certain assets, liabilities and equity are measured through other comprehensive income.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company estimated that a 10% decrease of the USD versus foreign exchange rates would result in a gain of $275,524 (June 30, 2022: gain of $68,224).
