Direct costs include: Raw materials and consumables, direct labour, freight and other direct costs Excludes $3.2m of capital raising costs

Revenue growth achieved over prior corresponding period despite customer-supply chain related delay in Corvette ramp up. Ferrari sales almost doubled compared to last half year Half year contribution margin of $1.5m driven by higher wheel price arising from product mix changes Effective cost control delivers stable expenses R&D costs managed to be flat whilst growth underlying activity in new launches and development projects SG&A remains flat, despite cost inflationary environment Includes non-recurring transaction costs related to the announced merger Other income increased due to milestone achievement in October for the State of Victoria grant, compared to February last year Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income

Higher average wheel price and continued focus on production efficiency offset cost pressures Production mix of wheels strongly weighted to higher cost low pressure moulding, due to pause in Corvette wheel production Mix of wheels weighted to older technology resulting in higher price and cost per wheel, but with higher margin. Contribution margin improvements in future periods to arise from efficiency and scale benefits Logistics costs remained elevated during the half, however the international logistics costs appear to be easing early in CY23 1: Contribution margin is Wheel Revenue less Direct Costs. Direct costs include: Raw materials and consumables, direct labour, freight and other direct costs Contribution Marginper Wheel Avg. Price per Wheel $150 $2,723 $250 $2,914 Contribution Margin Growth Achieved $109 $2,661

1: Direct costs include: Raw materials and consumables, direct labour, freight and other direct costs2: Indirect costs include: Allocated manufacturing overheads, scrap and other allocated indirect costs Operational Efficiencies & COGS reduction is a Top Priority $ / Wheel (columns) Increase in COGS per wheel driven by weighting of wheels on older moulding technology (low pressure) Reduced production levels in the half impacted COGS Direct costs higher due to weighting of more complex wheels and produced on low pressure moulding technology Modest raw material increases due to inflation Lower volumes impacted labour efficiency and result in a higher fixed cost allocation per wheel Very few high pressure wheels in 1H FY23 and no Mega-line wheels. Ramp up of Corvette and SUV wheel on high pressure and Mega-line expected in 2H FY23 Wheels(line)

Strong improvement in operating cash flows Successful customer initiatives to improve liquidity led to higher customer receipts of $11.5m, lower receivables and improved working capital Higher operating grants including grant advances to assist short-term liquidity including MMI grant for $9m in December 2022, which was $4.2m higher than initially expected Continued strong cost control focus Investing cashflows for growth Lower investing cash following peak investment in the Mega-line through FY22 Net debt position increased Small movement in loans and borrowing primarily due to increased usage of supplier financing related to increase in raw materials in anticipation of production restart of Corvette and launch of the SUV wheel Net debt increased by $36.7m due primarily to reduction in cash compared to prior corresponding period Positive Operating Cashflow and Working Capital Reduction
