CHAIRMAN'S LETTER

Dear Shareholders

Welcome to the 2020 Annual Report for European Metals Holdings limited ("European Metals" or "the Company").

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I am pleased to report to you on what has been another busy and transformational year for your Company. Our strategy is to become a Czech based lithium and tin producer and we have made significant advances through the year towards making that aim a reality. 

The Project has been significantly de-risked and at the time of this report is moving rapidly towards a final investment decision.

The year was marked primarily by the completion of an agreement with CEZ a.s., the Czech national power utility, by which CEZ became a 51% shareholder of the Project Company, Geomet and injected approximately EUR 29 million into the Project. This agreement not only provides all necessary funding to move the Project to final investment decision, it also provides strong business and management support within the Czech Republic.

CEZ is an established, integrated energy group with operations in a number of Central and Southeastern European countries and Turkey. CEZ's core business is the generation, distribution, trade in, and sales of electricity and heat, trade in and sales of natural gas, and coal extraction. CEZ Group has 33,000 employees and annual revenue of approximately EUR 7.24 billion. The largest shareholder of its parent company, CEZ a.s., is the Czech Republic government with a stake of approximately 70%. The shares of CEZ a.s. are traded on the Prague and Warsaw stock exchanges and included in the PX and WIG-CEE exchange indices. CEZ's market capitalization is approximately EUR 9 billion. As one of the leading Central European power companies, CEZ intends to develop several projects in areas of energy storage and battery manufacturing in the Czech Republic and in Central Europe. CEZ is also a market leader for E-mobility in the region and has installed and operates a network of EV charging stations throughout Czech Republic. The automotive industry in Czech is a significant contributor to GDP and the number of EV's in the country is expected to grow significantly in coming years.

In addition to the partnership with CEZ, the Company announced post balance date, a partnership agreement with EIT InnoEnergy, a European Union body that is the principal facilitator and organiser of the European Battery Alliance (EBA). The EBA was initiated by the European Commission to create a competitive and sustainable battery cell manufacturing value chain in Europe.

The purpose of the partnership agreement with EIT InnoEnergy is to facilitate the accelerated construction financing and ultimate commercialisation of Cinovec. This will be achieved through assistance in the sourcing of construction finance, grant funding, and offtake introductions and negotiations.

There has been significant recent commitment within the EU to building a sustainable European Battery industry and Electric Vehicle industry. In July, the EU approved a Green Stimulus Package of in excess of EUR 500 billion to address climate change and ensure a green energy future. This, coupled with a growing global desire to develop local supply chains, has focused attention on European based projects involved in the battery metals supply chain. Cinovec is set to benefit significantly from these developments.

Global lithium prices continue to be depressed, largely due to the recent upheaval in the spodumene concentrate market. We believe that this upheaval, combined with the macro factors outlined above strongly supports our strategy of becoming an integrated producer of lithium hydroxide and/or lithium carbonate supplying directly into the European market. This strategy eliminates counter party risk and delivers European product into the rapidly expanding European EV and battery storage markets. We see a strong recovery in lithium prices.

The deposit is uniquely located, being in the centre of the Czech and European car industry and proximal to a large number of new and planned battery factories. Europe has recently overtaken China as the largest producer of Electric Vehicles globally and the EC has released an action plan on critical raw materials to ensure a more secure and sustainable supply.

The Project Company recently appointed SMS group, a German based world leading engineering firm as the lead engineer for the minerals processing and lithium battery-grade chemicals production at Cinovec. This marks the beginning of the formal Front-End Engineering Design study as the major component of the ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study. This  detailed engineering contract, along with advances in permitting and offtake discussions moves us closer to development of Europe's largest hard rock lithium resource for the benefit of all stakeholders.

At a board level, our Chairman Dave Reeves resigned at the end of the year. Dave was instrumental in bringing the Cinovec Project to the Company in 2013 and the development of the Project since. Dave's workload in his Executive role with another mining project has increased dramatically and requires a great deal of his time. We are very sorry to see him leave and wish him all the very best with his future endeavours. 

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all staff, advisors, contractors and our shareholders who have supported us over the past year.

I look forward to updating you throughout the new financial year as we continue to advance the Cinovec Lithium/Tin Project.

Keith Coughlan

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN

PROJECT REVIEW

Geomet s.r.o. controls the mineral exploration licenses awarded by the Czech State over the Cinovec Lithium/Tin Project.

Geomet s.r.o. is owned 49% by European Metals and 51% by CEZ a.s. through its wholly owned subsidiary, SDAS. CEZ is a significant energy group listed on various European Exchanges with the ticker CEZ. Following the investment of CEZ, the Cinovec Project is fully funded to decision to construct.

Cinovec hosts a globally significant hard-rock lithium deposit with a total Indicated Mineral Resource of 372.4Mt at 0.45% Li2O and 0.04% Sn and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 323.5Mt at 0.39% Li2O and 0.04% Sn containing a combined 7.22 million tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent and 263kt of tin reported 28 November 2017 (Further Increase in Indicated Resource at Cinovec South). An initial Probable Ore Reserve of 34.5Mt at 0.65% Li2O and 0.09% Sn reported 4 July 2017 (Cinovec Maiden Ore Reserve - Further Information) has been declared to cover the first 20 years mining at an output of 22,500tpa of lithium carbonate reported 11 July 2018 (Cinovec Production Modelled to Increase to 22,500tpa of Lithium Carbonate).  The quantity of these resources directly attributable to the Company is equivalent to the 49% shareholding the Company has in Geomet s.r.o.

This makes Cinovec the largest hard-rock lithium deposit in Europe, the fourth largest non-brine deposit in the world and a globally significant tin resource. The deposit has previously had over 400,000 tonnes of ore mined as a trial sub-level open stope underground mining operation. In June 2019 EMH completed an updated Preliminary Feasibility Study, conducted by specialist independent consultants, which indicated a return post tax NPV of USD1.108B and an IRR of 28.8% and confirmed that the Cinovec Project is a potential low operating cost, producer of battery grade lithium hydroxide or battery grade lithium carbonate as markets demand. It confirmed the deposit is amenable to bulk underground mining. Metallurgical test-work has produced both battery grade lithium hydroxide and battery grade lithium carbonate in addition to high-grade tin concentrate at excellent recoveries.

Cinovec is centrally located for European end-users and is well serviced by infrastructure, with a sealed road adjacent to the deposit, rail lines located 5 km north and 8 km south of the deposit and an active 22 kV transmission line running to the historic mine. As the deposit lies in an active mining region, it has strong community support. The economic viability of Cinovec has been enhanced by the recent strong increase in demand for lithium globally, and within Europe specifically.

Agreement with CEZ on Significant Project Investment

A significant highlight of the year has been the agreement with CEZ involving the investment of approximately EUR 29.1 million for 51% of the Cinovec Project. The first announcement of this proposed agreement was made in July 2019.

As part of the then agreement, CEZ conditionally agreed to provide a EUR 2 million finance facility by way of a convertible loan whilst they were conducting due diligence on the Company and Project.

On 27 March 2020, the Company announced that it had reached final agreement with CEZ, regarding the strategic partnership and significant investment, subject only to the approval of European Metals Shareholders.  This approval was received on 23 April and on 28 April 2020,  European Metals announced that the investment of EUR 29.1 million by CEZ had been completed.  The payment of EUR 29.1 million will see the Cinovec project fully funded to the decision to construct, paving the way for Cinovec to become the first European Union producer of battery grade lithium compounds from a local lithium resource.

Preliminary Mining Permits

Throughout the year the Company has made regulatory advancements to the project in the form of progressive permitting.

In August 2019, the Company advised the granting of an extension to the Cinovec Exploration Licence that covers the two granted Preliminary Mining Permits ("PMP's").  The granted PMP's convey the sole and exclusive rights upon the Company to apply for a Final Mining Permit, however do not allow for further drilling.  As the Company wished to conduct further metallurgical testing and measured resource drilling, the extension to the exploration license that was due to expire in July 2018 was sought.  The licence has now been extended until 31 December 2020.

On 30 April 2020, European Metals advised that the Czech Ministry of the Environment had granted Geomet with the PMP relating to the Northwestern part of the Cinovec project.  The preliminary approval for the Northwestern part of the deposit covers an area of 1.27 km² and, together with the existing Preliminary Mining Permit for the Southern part, now encompasses the entire Cinovec ore reserve.  This permit significantly strengthens Geomet's position as the only possible miner and paves the way for obtaining the remaining permits to start construction, mining and processing activities.

On 16 June 2020, European Metals advised that the Czech Ministry of the Environment had granted Geomet an updated PMP related to the Eastern part of the Cinovec deposit.  The permit was issued for a period of 8 years.

The approval for the Cinovec-East PMP of the deposit covers an area of 0.201 km² and, together with the existing PMP's, encompases the entire Cinovec ore reserve with PMP's. There are three PMP's issued with medium-term validity periods; Cinovec Northwest and Cinovec-East are valid until 2028 and Cinovec-South until 2025.  The Company intends to amalgamate all three PMP's into a single PMP as a pre-requisite for a single Final Mining Area and Final Mining Permit to simplify the development of the mine.

Corporate

The Company made two small capital raisings during the year, the proceeds of which were used to  advance the Company's strategy including progressing the development of the Project, progressing discussions with CEZ and  discussions with potential off take and strategic partners. 

The first raising was for GBP 750,000 (A$1,349,831) in August 2019 and the second for GPB 350,000 (AUD 675,074) in January 2020.

Board Changes

On 30 June 2020, the Company announced that Mr David Reeves had resigned as a Director and Non-Executive Chairman of the Company due to the increased demands on his time as Managing Director of Calidus Resources. At the same time Mr Keith Coughlan moved from his position of Managing Director to Executive Chairman as an interim measure.

Covid-19 Update

On 24 April 2020, the Company provided the market with an update regarding the operations and Covid-19.

It was reported that all management and staff of both EMH and Geomet were unaffected by COVID-19 and the restrictions on travel at the time and meetings were not expected to have any impact for the foreseeable future; all staff were able and continued to work remotely. To-date, the Cinovec Project has drilled in excess of 13,800m of diamond drilling under the management of EMH. Extensive sample quantities are available from the resulting drill core as well as material recovered from historic adit drives into the ore body. Significant quantities of ore sample are held at our laboratory partners in Germany and at the project office in the Czech Republic. European Metals and Geomet have confirmed with our laboratory and engineering partners in Germany and Australia that staff and laboratories involved in the DFS and FEED programmes over the next 3 months are ready and open for work on an immediate basis.

POST REPORTING PERIOD

Measured Resource Drilling Commenced

On 10 August 2020, the Company advised that the Measured Resource drilling had commenced at the Cinovec project.  Highlights included:

o  A total of nineteen resource drill holes will be completed during this campaign for a total of 5,550 m.

o  A further two hydro-geological drill holes and four geotechnical drill holes are planned once resource drilling has been completed.

o  The programme will provide approximately 10t of drill core for further metallurgical testing and to generate samples.

Partnership Agreement with European Union Body

On 28 July 2020, the Company announced that a "Value Added Services Agreement" with KIC InnoEnergy SE ("EIT InnoEnergy"), the principal facilitator and organiser of the European Battery Alliance,  had been entered into by Geomet s.r.o. in respect of the Cinovec Lithium Project.  

The purpose of the financing agreement with EIT InnoEnergy is to support the construction financing and ultimate commercialisation of Cinovec  by EIT InnoEnergy providing assistance to EMH to support the:

· Sourcing of construction finance;

· Securing of grant funding; and

· Assisting in offtake introductions and negotiations.

Appointment of European Investor Relations Advisor 

On 14 July 2020 EMH advised it had appointed DGWA, the German Institute for Asset and Equity Allocation and Valuation ("Deutsche Gesellschaft für Wertpapieranalyse GmbH", "DGWA"), one of the leading mining and resource focused European investment banking boutiques, as its Investor and Corporate Relations advisor in Europe.

DGWA will collaborate with European Metals to help gain investor awareness and drive investment opportunities from the European financial markets and will provide investor relations services to help European Metals position itself in the German-speaking financial markets. DGWA will also introduce European Metals to its extensive network within the European corporate and federal community to assist the Company in exploring offtake-agreements and potential grants and subsidies.

Proposed Czech Listing

The Company is in discussions with the Prague Stock Exchange regarding the proposed listing of the Company's securities. Given the high profile that the Cinovec Project has within the Czech Republic, the Company would like to provide the opportunity for Czechs to invest directly via their domestic exchange.

Interim Funding

EMH has arranged an interim funding facility to assist in financing new initiatives and for ongoing operations. The facility has been provided by an Australian based sophisticated investor, 6466 Investments Pty Ltd, and allows for a drawdown of up to AUD 1 million in tranches as required over 12 months. Any funds drawn down will convert to CDI's in the Company at a 15% discount to the 10-day vwap in the Company's securities. The issue of shares pursuant to draw downs is not subject to shareholder approval .

The first draw down was completed on 17 July 2020 and the second draw down was completed on 27 August 2020.

A. Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration

The remuneration policy of the Group has been designed to align Director and management objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component, and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Group financial results. The Board of the Company believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best management and Directors to run and manage the Group, as well as create goal congruence between Directors, Executives and shareholders.

The Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for Board members and Senior Executives of the Group is as follows:

The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the Executive Directors and other Senior Executives, was developed by the Board. All Executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience), superannuation, options and performance incentives. The Board reviews Executive packages annually by reference to the Group's performance, executive performance, and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries.

Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements.

All remuneration paid to Directors and Executives is valued at the cost to the Group and expensed. 

The Board policy is to remunerate Non-executive Directors at commercial market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment, and responsibilities. The Board determines payments to the Non-executive Directors and reviews their remuneration annually based on market practice, duties, and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to Non-executive Directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. Fees for Non- Executive Directors are not linked to the performance of the Group. However, to align Directors' interests with shareholder interests, the Directors are encouraged to hold CDIs in the Company.

The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase the direct positive relationship between shareholders' investment objectives and Directors' and Executives' performance. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options to the majority of Directors and Executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The Company believes this policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth. For details of Directors' and Executives' interests in CDIs, options and performance shares at year end, refer to the remuneration report.

Description of Performance Shares

In financial year ended 30 June 2019, it had become apparent that the B Class Performance Shares approved at the 2016 AGM only represented half the value contemplated by the Original Performance Shares, as a result of the conversion mechanism provided for under the B Class Terms.  As an incentive to the vendors, the Company issued 5,000,000 A Class Performance Shares on the same terms and conditions as the B Class Performance shares. 

During the financial year 30 June 2020, the Company issued 3,000,000 CDIs upon conversion of 2,000,000 A Class Performance Shares and 1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares in satisfaction of milestone being met. The remaining 4,000,000 B Class Performance Shares lapsed during the year. Of the 3,000,000 CDIs issued on conversion of Performance Shares, 217,064 A Class Performance Shares and 108,532 B Class Performance Shares were converted by Key Management Personnel. Under the applicable terms and conditions, the performance shares convert into new CDIs in accordance with the following milestones:

2,000,000 A Class Performance Shares

1.   1,000,000 of the performance shares convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the Company's Mineral Resource at Cinovec South and Cinovec Main being entered in the State register; and

2.   1,000,000 of the performance shares convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the issuance of the preliminary mining licenses relating to the Cinovec Project.

1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares

1.  1,000,000 of the performance shares convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the issuance of the preliminary mining licenses relating to the Cinovec Project.

The remaining 4,000,000 B Class Performance Shares lapsed during the year.

The terms of the Performance Shares are as follows:

The remaining 3,000,000 A Class Performance Shares will convert in accordance with the below:

(i)  3,000,000 A Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the completing of a definitive feasibility study (DFS). For clarity, the DFS must be: (i) of a standard suitable to be submitted to a financial institution as the basis for lending of funds for the development and operation of mining activities contemplated in the study; (ii) capable of supporting a decision to mine on the Permits; and (iii) completed to an accuracy of +/- 15% with respect to operating and capital costs and display a pre-tax net present value of not less than US$250,000,000. The Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 3,000,000 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to date of receipt of the completed DFS,

(together the Milestones and each a Milestone).  For the avoidance of doubt, the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs which will be issued on conversion of the B Class Performance Shares will not exceed a ratio of 1 for 1.

(ii)  If the Milestone is not achieved or the Change of Control Event does not occur by the required date, then each  Performance Share held by a Holder will be automatically redeemed by the Company for the sum of $0.000001 within 10 ASX trading days of non-satisfaction of the Milestone.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2020

NOTE 1:  STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)				Basis of preparation
				These consolidated financial statements and notes represent those of European Metals Holdings Limited ("the Company") and Controlled Entities (the "Consolidated Group" or "Group"). The financial statements are general purpose financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Boards (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. The Group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards. The accounting policies detailed below have been adopted in the preparation of the financial report. Except for cash flow information, the financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis and are based on historical cost, modified, where applicable, by the measurement at fair values of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities.  The Group is a listed public company, incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and registered in Australia.
(i)				Accounting policies
				The Group has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Group has considered the implications of new and amended Accounting Standards applicable for annual reporting periods beginning after 1 January 2019 but determined that their application to the financial statements is either not relevant or not material. (a) New and Revised Accounting Standards Adopted by the Group The Group has considered the implications of new or amended Accounting Standards which have become applicable for the current financial reporting year and the group had to change its accounting policies as a result of adopting the following standard: AASB 16: Leases The Group as lessee At inception of a contract, the Group assesses if the contract contains a lease or is a lease. If there is a lease present, a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability are recognised by the Group where the Group is a lessee. However, all contracts that are classified as short-term leases (i.e. a lease with a remaining lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low-value assets are recognised as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Initially the lease liability is measured at the present value of the lease payments still to be paid at the commencement date. The lease payments are discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are as follows: • fixed lease payments less any lease incentives; • variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the index or rate at the commencement date; • the amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees; • the exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; • lease payments under extension options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the options; and • payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of an option to terminate the lease. The right-of-use assets comprise the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date and any initial direct costs. The subsequent measurement of the right-of-use assets is at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Right-of-use assets are depreciated over the lease term or useful life of the underlying asset, whichever is the shortest. Where a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the Group anticipates to exercise a purchase option, the specific asset is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset. Based on director's assessment, the adoption of AASB 16 did not have any material impact on the Group as its existing lease contract is short-term in nature.
				(b) New and revised Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods Any new, revised or amending Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. The adoption of these Accounting Standards and Interpretations did not have any significant impact on the financial performance or position of the company. There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting period and on foreseeable future transactions.
(ii)				Statement of Compliance
				The financial report was authorised for issue on 30 September 2020. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in the financial statements containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB.
(iii)				Going Concern
				The directors have prepared the financial statements on going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of normal business activities and the realisation of assets and extinguishment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. At 30 June 2020, the consolidated entity comprising the Company and its subsidiaries has incurred a profit for the year amounting to $2,813,807 (2019: loss $3,252,815). The Consolidated entity has a net working capital deficit of $897,897 (2019: $389,835), current liabilities of $979,210 (2019: $152,110) and cash and cash equivalents of $58,951 (2019: $426,178). Since 30 June 2020, the Company has raised a further of $635,000 through exercised options as disclosed in Note 26. The directors consider these funds, combined with the loan arrangement entered into with 6466 Investments Pty Ltd which allows for a drawdown of up to A$1million in tranches as required over 12 months, and the additional funds from any capital raising to be sufficient for planned expenditure on the project for the ensuing 12 months as well as for corporate and administrative overhead costs. The first drawdown was completed on 17 July 2020.  The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration and other commitments is dependent upon the Group raising further working capital. In the event that the Group is not successful in raising further equity, the Group may not be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due and the realisable value of the Group's current and non-current assets may be significantly less than book values.
(iv)				Critical accounting estimates and judgements
				The application of accounting policies requires the use of judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if it affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.  Share-based payment transactions The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees and consultants by reference to the estimated fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. These are expensed over the estimated vesting periods.
(iv)			Critical accounting estimates and judgements
			Impairment of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure The future recoverability of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is dependent on a number of factors, including whether the Group decides to exploit the related lease itself or, if not, whether it successfully recovers the related exploration and evaluation asset through sale. Factors that could impact the future recoverability include the level of reserves and resources, future technological changes, which could impact the cost of mining, future legal changes (including changes to environmental restoration obligations) and changes to commodity prices. To the extent that capitalised exploration and evaluation expenditure is determined not to be recoverable in the future, profits and net assets will be reduced in the period in which this determination is made. Recognition of deferred tax assets Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses have not been recognised as the Directors are of the opinion that it is not probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax assets can be utilised.
(b)		Income Tax
		Current income tax expense charged to the profit or loss is the tax payable on taxable income calculated using applicable income tax rates enacted, or substantially enacted, as at reporting date.  Current tax liabilities (assets) are therefore measured at the amounts expected to be paid to (recovered from) the relevant taxation authority. Deferred income tax expense reflects movements in deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability balances during the year as well unused tax losses. Current and deferred income tax expense (income) is charged or credited directly to equity instead of the profit or loss when the tax relates to items that are credited or charged directly to equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are ascertained based on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets also result where amounts have been fully expensed but future tax deductions are available.  No deferred income tax will be recognised from the initial recognition of an asset or liability, excluding a business combination, where there is no effect on accounting or taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at reporting date.  Their measurement also reflects the manner in which management expects to recover or settle the carrying amount of the related asset or liability. Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax asset can be utilised. Where temporary differences exist in relation to investments in subsidiaries, branches, associates, and joint ventures, deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference can be controlled and it is not probable that the reversal will occur in the foreseeable future. Current tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists and it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset where a legally enforceable right of set-off exists, the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where it is intended that net settlement or simultaneous realisation and settlement of the respective asset and liability will occur in future periods in which significant amounts of deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be recovered or settled.
(c)			Impairment of assets
			At the end of each reporting period the Group assesses whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Group makes an estimate of the asset's recoverable amount. An asset's recoverable amount is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets and the asset's value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value. In such cases the asset is tested for impairment as part of the cash-generating unit to which it belongs. When the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating unit is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. Impairment losses relating to continuing operations are recognised in those expense categories consistent with the function of the impaired asset unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease. An assessment is also made at each reporting period as to whether there is any indication that previously recognised impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognised impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset's recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognised. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at revalued amount, in which case the reversal is treated as a revaluation increase. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset's revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
(d)			Cash and cash equivalents
			Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.
(e)			Revenue
			Interest
			Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method. Services Revenue Revenue is recognised at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the Group: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised. Effective 28 April 2020, the Group started providing services of managing the Cinovec project development.
(f)			Goods and Services Tax (GST)
			Revenues, expenses, and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST. Cash flows are presented in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows.
(g)			Trade and other receivables
			Trade receivables are measured on initial recognition at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any allowance for impairment. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 30 days. Impairment of trade receivables is continually reviewed and those that are considered to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly.  An allowance account is used when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original contractual terms. Factors considered by the Group in making this determination include known significant financial difficulties of the debtor, review of financial information and significant delinquency in making contractual payments to the Group. The impairment allowance is set equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the receivable and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. Where receivables are short-term discounting is not applied in determining the allowance. The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in the profit and loss within other expenses. When a trade receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against other expenses in the profit and loss.
(h)			Government Grants
			An unconditional government grant is recognised in profit or loss as other income when the grant becomes receivable. Grants that compensate the Group for expenses incurred are recognised in profit or loss as other income on a systematic basis in the same period in which the expenses are recognised. Research and development tax incentives are recognised in the statement of profit or loss when received or when the amount to be received can be reliably estimated.
(i)			Employee Benefits
			Short-term benefits
			Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
			Other long-term employee benefits
			Provision is made for the liability due to employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to the reporting date. Employee benefits expected to be settled within one year together with benefits arising out of wages and salaries, sick leave and annual leave which will be settled after one year, have been measured at their nominal amount. Other employee benefits payable later than one year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Contributions made to defined employee superannuation funds are charged as expenses when incurred.
(j)			Exploration and Evaluation Assets
			Exploration and evaluation costs, including costs of acquiring licenses, are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets on an area of interest basis. Costs of acquiring licences which are pending the approval of the relevant regulatory authorities as at the date of reporting are capitalised as exploration and evaluation cost if in the opinion of the Directors it is virtually certain the Group will be granted the licences. Exploration and evaluation assets are only recognised if the rights of tenure to the area of interest are current and either: (a)  The expenditures are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation of the area of interest, or (b)  Activities in the area of interest have not at the reporting date, reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves and active and significant operations in, or in relation to, the area of interest are continuing. Exploration and evaluation assets are assessed for impairment when: (i)  Sufficient data exists to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability, and (ii)  Facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount (see impairment accounting policy in Note 1(c). For the purposes of impairment testing, exploration and evaluation assets are allocated to cash-generating units to which exploration activity relates. The cash generating unit shall not be larger than the area of interest. Once the technical feasibility and commercial viability of the extraction of mineral resources in an area of interest are demonstrable, exploration and evaluation assets attributable to that area of interest are first tested for impairment and then reclassified from intangible assets to mining property and development assets within property, plant and equipment.
(k)			Financial Instruments
	Recognition, initial measurement and derecognition
	Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the  financial instrument.  Financial instruments (except for trade receivables) are measured initially at fair value adjusted by transaction costs, except for those carried at 'fair value through profit or loss', in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss.  Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine the fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. Subsequent measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities are described below.
	Trade receivables are initially measured at the transaction price if the receivables do not contain a significant financing component in accordance with AASB 15.  Financial assets are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred.  A financial liability is derecognised when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired.

Classification and measurement

Financial assets

Except for those trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component and are measured at the transaction price in accordance with AASB 15, all financial assets are initially measured at fair value adjusted for transaction costs (where applicable).

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:

• amortised cost;

• fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI); and

• fair value through profit or loss (FVPL).

 Classifications are determined by both:

• the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets; and

• the Group's business model for managing the financial asset.

			Financial assets at amortised cost
			Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet with the following conditions (and are not designated as FVPL); · they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the financial assets and collect its contractual cash flows; and · the contractual terms of the financial assets give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.
			After initial recognition, these are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.  Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial.  The Group's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables fall into this category of financial instruments.
			Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
			The Group measures debt instruments at fair value through OCI if both of the following conditions are met: · the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding; and · the financial asset is held within a business model with the objective of both holding to collect contractual cash flows and selling the financial asset.
			For debt instruments at fair value through OCI, interest income, foreign exchange revaluation and impairment losses or reversals are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and computed in the same manner as for financial assets measured at amortised cost.  The remaining fair value changes are recognised in OCI.
			Upon initial recognition, the Group can elect to classify irrevocably its equity investments as equity instruments designated at fair value through OCI when they meet the definition of equity under AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation and are not held for trading.
			Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL)
			Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value.  Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing in the near term.
			Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, loans and borrowings, payables or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate.
			Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, and, where applicable, adjusted for transaction costs unless the Group designated a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.
			Subsequently, financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method except for derivatives and financial liabilities designated at FVPL, which are carried subsequently at fair value with gains or losses recognised in profit or loss.
			All interest-related charges and, if applicable, gains and losses arising on changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
(l)			Trade and other payables
			Trade payables and other payables are carried at amortised cost and represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial period that are unpaid and arise when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services.  Trade and other payables are presented as current liabilities unless payment is not due within 12 months.
(m)			Earnings Per CDI
			Basic earnings per CDI
			Basic earnings per CDI is determined by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, by the weighted average number of CDIs outstanding during the period, adjusted for bonus elements in CDIs issued during the period.
			Diluted earnings per CDI
			Diluted earnings per CDI adjusts the figure used in the determination of basic earnings per CDI to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financial costs associated with dilutive potential CDIs and the weighted average number of CDIs assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential CDIs, which comprise convertible notes and CDI options granted.
(n)			Borrowing Costs
			Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. All other borrowing costs are recognised in as expenses in the period in which they are incurred.
(o)			Provisions
			A provision is recognised if, as a result of a past event, the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.  Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
(p)			Segment reporting
			An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group's other components. Operating segments' results are reviewed by the Group's Managing Director to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.
(q)			CDI based payments
			The grant date fair value of CDI-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that do not meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For CDI-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the CDI-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes. Loan CDIs are treated similar to options and value is an estimate calculated using an appropriate mathematical formula based on Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The choice of models and the resultant Loan CDI value require assumptions to be made in relation to the likelihood and timing of the vesting of the Loan CDIs and the value and volatility of the price of the underlying shares.
(r)			Foreign Currency Transactions and Balances
			Functional and presentation currency The functional currency of each of the Group's entities is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the parent entity's functional and presentation currency. Transaction and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items are translated at the year-end exchange rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost continue to be carried at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are reported at the exchange rate at the date when fair values were determined. Exchange differences arising on the translation of monetary items are recognised in Profit or Loss, except where deferred in equity as a qualifying cash flow or net investment hedge. Exchange differences arising on the translation of non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity to the extent that the gain or loss is directly recognised in other comprehensive income; otherwise the exchange difference is recognised in Profit or Loss. Group companies The financial results and position of foreign operations whose functional currency is different from the Group's presentation currency are translated as follows: -  Assets and liabilities are translated at year end exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period; -  Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for the period; and -  Retained earnings are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction. Exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operations recognised in the other comprehensive income and included in the foreign currency translation reserve in the Statement of Financial Position. These differences are reclassified into Profit or Loss in the period in which the operation is disposed.
(s)		Issued capital
		CDIs are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new CDIs or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new CDIs or options for the acquisition of a new business are not included in the cost of acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.
(t)		Principles of Consolidation
		The consolidated financial statements incorporate all of the assets, liabilities and results of the parent European Metals Holdings Limited and all of the subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities the parent controls. The parent controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. A list of the subsidiaries is provided in Note 22. The assets, liabilities and results of all subsidiaries are fully consolidated into the financial statements of the Group from the date on which control is obtained by the Group. The consolidation of a subsidiary is discontinued from the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between Group entities are fully eliminated on consolidation. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed and adjustments made where necessary to ensure uniformity of the accounting policies adopted by the Group. Equity interests in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Group are presented as "non-controlling interests". The Group initially recognises non-controlling interests that are present ownership interests in subsidiaries and are entitled to a proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets on liquidation at either fair value or at the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of the subsidiary's net assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-controlling interests are attributed their share of profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income. Non-controlling interests are shown separately within the equity section of the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income.
(u)		Investments in associates
		Associates are entities over which the consolidated entity has significant influence but not control or joint control. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the associate is recognised in profit or loss and the share of the movements in equity is recognised in other comprehensive income. Investments in associates are carried in the statement of financial position at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the consolidated entity's share of net assets of the associate. Goodwill relating to the associate is included in the carrying amount of the investment and is neither amortised nor individually tested for impairment. Dividends received or receivable from associates reduce the carrying amount of the investment.
		When the consolidated entity's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any unsecured long-term receivables, the consolidated entity does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. The consolidated entity discontinues the use of the equity method upon the loss of significant influence over the associate and recognises any retained investment at its fair value. Any difference between the associate's carrying amount, fair value of the retained investment and proceeds from disposal is recognised in profit or loss.
NOTE 2:   DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
CDI-based payment transactions The fair value of the employee CDI options and the share appreciation right is measured using the Black-Scholes formula. Measurement inputs include CDI price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.

¹ The milestone was achieved prior to B Class Performance Share expiring.

No performance shares were issued during the year (30 June 2019: 5,000,000 Class A). B Class performance shares lapsed during the year.  During the year, under the applicable terms and conditions, the performance shares convert into new CDIs in accordance with the following milestones:

2,000,000 A Class Performance Shares

1.   1,000,000 of the performance shares convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the Company's Mineral Resource at Cinovec South and Cinovec Main being entered in the State register; and

2.   1,000,000 of the performance shares convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the issuance of the preliminary mining licenses relating to the Cinovec Project.

1,000,000 B Class Performance Shares

1.  1,000,000 of the performance shares convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the issuance of the preliminary mining licenses relating to the Cinovec Project. The remaining 4,000,000 B Class Performance Shares lapsed during the year.

The terms of the Performance Shares are as follows:

The remaining 3,000,000 A Class Performance Shares will convert in accordance with the below:

(i)      3,000,000 A Class Performance Shares will convert into Shares and an equivalent number of CDIs upon the completing of a definitive feasibility study (DFS). For clarity, the DFS must be: (i) of a standard suitable to be submitted to a financial institution as the basis for lending of funds for the development and operation of mining activities contemplated in the study; (ii) capable of supporting a decision to mine on the Permits; and (iii) completed to an accuracy of +/- 15% with respect to operating and capital costs and display a pre-tax net present value of not less than US$250,000,000. The Performance Shares shall convert into the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs equal to 3,000,000 and divided by the greater of: (A) $0.50 per CDI; and (B) the volume weighted average price of CDIs (expressed as a decimal of $1.00) as calculated over the 5 ASX trading days prior to date of receipt of the completed DFS,

(together the Milestones and each a Milestone).  For the avoidance of doubt, the number of Shares and equivalent number of CDIs which will be issued on conversion of the B Class Performance Shares and A Class Performance Shares will not exceed a ratio of 1 for 1.

(ii)  If the Milestone is not achieved or the Change of Control Event does not occur by the required date, then each  Performance Share held by a Holder will be automatically redeemed by the Company for the sum of $0.000001 within 10 ASX trading days of non-satisfaction of the Milestone.$2,671,444 has been attributed to the Performance Shares.

(e) Capital risk management

The Group's objectives when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.

The capital structure of the Group consists of equity comprising issued capital, reserves and accumulated losses.

Due to the nature of the Group's activities, being mineral exploration, the Group does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Therefore, the focus of the Group's capital risk management is to maintain sufficient current working capital position to meet the requirements of the Group to meet exploration programs and corporate overheads. The Group's strategy is to ensure appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required.

The working capital position of the Group at 30 June is as follows:

(i)  The borrower dies or becomes permanently disabled; or

(ii)  The Board otherwise determines that such waiver is appropriate

vii.  Where the Board waives repayment of the Advance in accordance with clause 6(a), the Advance is deemed to have been repaid in full for the purposes of the Plan in this agreement.

The accounting policies used by the Group in reporting segments are in accordance with the measurement principles of Australian Accounting Standards.

The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are provided to the Board of Directors.

• The nature of the products and services;

• The nature of the production processes;

• The type or class of customer for their products and services;

• The methods used to distribute their products or provide their services; and

NOTE 20: DECONSOLIDATION OF GEOMET S.R.O

On 28 April 2020, the Company announced that the investment of EUR29.1 million by CEZ a.s. ("CEZ") for a 51% equity interest in Geomet, the Company's Czech subsidiary and holder of the Cinovec licenses, had been completed. The payment of EUR29.1 million, which has been received into the Geomet account, will see the Cinovec project fully funded to the decision to construct, paving the way for Cinovec to become the first European Union producer of battery grade lithium compounds from a local lithium resource. The payment of EUR 29.1 million was split into two payments - EUR 12.3m (A$20.6m) was contributed to Geomet's registered share capital and EUR 16.8m (A$28.1m) is a monetary contribution to the equity Geomet outside of the Geomet's registered share capital. The Company ceased to fully consolidate Geomet's results within EMH's consolidated accounts effective 28 April 2020. From 28 April 2020 onward, Geomet had been equity accounted (ie 49% of share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition) for as Investment in Associate by EMH (Note 13). The Company was appointed to provide services of managing the Cinovec project development.

No cash consideration was received by EMH (Holdings) Limited as a result of the EUR29.1million i nvestment by CEZ. The 100% shareholding in Geomet s.r.o by EMH (Holdings) Limited was diluted through the issuance of shares to CEZ. This is commonly referred as "deemed disposal". A "deemed disposal" that results in the loss of control of a subsidiary (ie Geomet s.r.o) is accounted for as a regular disposal.

NOTE 21: FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's financial instruments consist mainly of deposits with banks, equity instruments and accounts receivable and payable.

The main purpose of non-derivative financial instruments is to raise finance for Group's operations. The Group does not speculate in the trading of derivative instruments.

The Group holds the following financial instruments:

		2020 $	2019 $
Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents		58,951	426,178
Other receivables		17,252	92,180
Total financial assets		76,203	518,358
Trade and other payables		924,592	128,977
Total financial liabilities		924,592	128,977

The fair value of the Group's financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying value.

Specific Financial Risk Exposures and Management

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

(i) Market risk

The Board meets on a regular basis to analyse currency and interest rate exposure and to evaluate treasury management strategies in the context of the most recent economic conditions and forecasts.

Interest rate risk

Exposure to interest rate risk arises on financial assets and financial liabilities recognised at the end of the reporting period whereby a future change in interest rates will affect future cash flows or the fair value of fixed rate financial instruments. The Group is also exposed to earnings volatility on floating rate instruments. Interest rate risk is not material to the Group as no interest bearing debt arrangements have been entered into.

Price risk

Price risk relates to the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.

Foreign exchange risk

Exposure to foreign exchange risk may result in the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument fluctuating due to movement in foreign exchange rates of currencies in which the Group holds financial instruments which are other than the AUD functional currency of the Group.

With instruments being held by overseas operations, fluctuations in foreign currencies may impact on the Group's financial results.  The Group's exposure to foreign exchange risk is monitored by the Board. The majority of the Group's funds are held in Australian dollars, British Stirling and EUR.

At 30 June 2020, the Group has financial assets and liabilities denominated in the foreign currencies detailed below:

	2020			2019
	Amount in EUR	Amount in GBP	Amount in AUD	Amount in EUR	Amount in GBP	Amount in AUD
Cash and cash equivalents in EMHL	7,846	15,436	-	-	111,156	-
Intercompany payables to EMHL by subsidiaries	-	-	1 0,919,537	-	-	11,143,599
	7,846	15,436	10,919,537	-	111,156	11,143,599
5% effect in foreign exchange rates	392	772	54 5 ,9 77	-	5,558	557,180

Other than intercompany balances there were no financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies for EMH UK.

(ii)  Credit risk

Credit exposure represents the extent of credit related losses that the Group may be subject to on amounts to be received from financial assets. Credit risk arises principally from trade and other receivables. The objective of the Group is to minimise the risk of loss from credit risk. Although revenue from operations is minimal, the Group trades only with creditworthy third parties. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is insignificant. The Group's maximum credit risk exposure is limited to the carrying value of its financial assets as indicated on the Statement of Financial Position and notes to the financial statements.

The credit quality of the financial assets was high during the year.  The table below details the credit quality of the financial assets at the end of the year:

		2020	2019
Financial assets	Credit Quality	$	$
Cash and cash equivalents held at Komercni Bank	High	-	22,715
Cash and cash equivalents held at Westpac Bank
· Interest-bearing deposits	High	29,954	240,107
Cash and cash equivalents held at ANZ bank	High	28,997	163,356
Other receivables and deposits	High	17,252	92,180
		76,203	518,358

(iii)  Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The objective of the Group is to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet commitments under normal and stressed conditions.

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, and the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities. Due to the lack of material revenue, the Group aims at maintaining flexibility in funding by maintaining adequate reserves of liquidity.

The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including estimated interest payments and excluding the impact of netting arrangements.

(iv)  Cash flow and fair value interest rate risk

From time to time the Group has significant interest bearing assets, but they are as a result of the timing of equity raising and capital expenditure rather than a reliance on interest income. The interest rate risk arises on the rise and fall of interest rates. The Group's income and operating cash flows are not expected to be materially exposed   to changes in market interest rates in the future and the exposure to interest rates is limited to the cash and cash equivalents balances. 

The Group's exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument's value will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates and the effective weighted average interest rates on classes of financial assets and financial liabilities:

Cash flow sensitivity analysis for variable rate instruments

A change of 100 basis points in the interest rates at the reporting date would have increased or decreased the Group's equity and profit or loss by $590 (2019: loss $13,509).

(v)  Net fair value of financial assets and liabilities

The net fair value of cash and cash equivalents and non-interest bearing monetary assets and financial liabilities approximates their carrying values.

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN

Dated at Perth on 30 September 2020

INDEPENDENT AUDIT REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF EUROPEAN METALS HOLDINGS LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of European Metals Holdings Limited (the Company), and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprises the statement of the consolidated financial position as at 30 June 2020, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors' declaration

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

(i)  giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 30 June 2020 and of its financial performance for the year then ended; and

(ii)  complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110: Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter Relating to Going Concern

Without modifying our audit opinion expressed above, attention is drawn to the following matter.

As referred to in Note 1 (a) to the financial statements, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.  At 30 June 2020, the Group had cash and cash equivalents of $58,951, and incurred a loss from continuing operations after income tax of $4,608,729.

The ability of the Group to continue as a going concern and meet its planned exploration, administration and other commitments is dependent upon the Group raising further working capital. In the event that the Group is not successful in raising further equity, the Group may not be able to meet its liabilities as and when they fall due and the realisable value of the Group's current and non-current assets may be significantly less than book values.

Key Audit Matters

We have determined the matters described below to be key audit matters to be communicated in the report.

We have defined the matters described below to be key audit matters to be communicated in our report. Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Deemed Sales of Subsidiary and Deconsolidation Effective 28 April 2020, the Group ceased to fully consolidate Geomet's results within EMH's consolidated accounts due to the investment made by CEZ a.s. ("CEZ") for a 51% equity interest in Geomet. Therefore, the investment injection reduced the Group's interest to 49% and required to deconsolidating Geomet's account on 27 April 2020. From 28 April 2020 onward, Geomet had been equity accounted (i.e. 49% of share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition) for as Investment in Associate by EMH. The Group has recognised gain from discontinued operations totalling $7,422,536 (refer to Note 20) as a result of the deconsolidation.   We have determined that the deconsolidation as a key audit matter due to the complexity of the deconsolidation processes required to properly eliminate Geomet's accounts and the fact that this is material to the financial statement for the year ended 30 June 2020.	Inter alia, our audit procedures included the following: i.  Performing audit of Geomet's accounts for the period ended 27 April 2020; ii.  Reviewing the documentation supporting the transaction: · Minutes of the Board and Management; · Announcements made by the Group to the Australian Securities exchanges; and · Signed agreement with CEZ. iii.  Reviewing the deconsolidation workings to ensure Geomet's accounts have been correctly deconsolidated; iv.  Ensuring disclosures made in the financial statements are complete and in accordance with accounting standards.

Other Information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group's annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020, but does not include the financial report and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance opinion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report.

The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Group's preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

We conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor's report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

We evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

We obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial report.

We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in Internal control that we identify during our audit.

The Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements. We also provide the Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with the Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on the Remuneration Report

We have audited the Remuneration Report included in pages 13 to 20 of the directors' report for the year ended 30 June 2020. The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Remuneration Report, based on our audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards

Opinion on the Remuneration Report

In our opinion, the Remuneration Report of European Metals Holdings Limited for the year ended 30 June 2020 complies with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.

The following sets out the Company's Corporate Governance Report in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies, a copy of which is also available from the Company's website at:

 INTRODUCTION

In April 2018, the Quoted Companies Alliance (QCA) published an updated version of its Code which provides UK small and mid-sized companies such as European Metals Limited with a corporate governance framework that is appropriate for a Company of our size and nature. The Board considers the principles and recommendations contained in the QCA Code are appropriate and have therefore chosen to apply the QCA Code.

The updated 2018 QCA Code has 10 principles that should be applied.  Each principle is listed below together with an explanation of how the Company applies or otherwise departs from each of the principles.

PRINCIPLE ONE

Business Model and Strategy

Geomet s.r.o. controls the mineral exploration licenses awarded by the Czech State over the Cinovec Lithium/Tin Project. Geomet s.r.o. is owned 49% by European Metals and 51% by CEZ a.s. through its wholly owned subsidiary, SDAS. Cinovec hosts a globally significant hard rock lithium deposit with a total Indicated Mineral Resource of 372.4Mt at 0.45% Li₂O and 0.04% Sn and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 323.5Mt at 0.39% Li₂O and 0.04% Sn containing a combined 7.22 million tonnes Lithium Carbonate Equivalent and 263kt of tin reported 28 November 2017. An initial Probable Ore Reserve of 34.5Mt at 0.65% Li₂O and 0.09% Sn reported 4 July 2017 has been declared to cover the first 20 years mining at an output of 22,500tpa of lithium carbonate reported 11 July 2018.

The quantity of these resources directly attributable to the Company is equivalent to the 49% shareholding the Company has in Geomet s.r.o.

This makes Cinovec the largest hard rock lithium deposit in Europe, the fourth largest non-brine deposit in the world and a globally significant tin resource.

The deposit has previously had over 400,000 tonnes of ore mined as a trial sub-level open stope underground mining operation.

PRINCIPLE TWO

Understanding Shareholder Needs and Expectations

The Board is committed to maintaining good communication and having constructive dialogue with its shareholders.  The Company has close ongoing relationships with its private shareholders. Institutional shareholders and analysts have the opportunity to discuss issues and provide feedback at meetings with the Company. In addition, all shareholders are encouraged to attend the Company's Annual General Meeting. Investors also have access to current information on the Company though its website, www.europeanmet.com, and via Keith Coughlan, Executive Chairman, who is available to answer investor relations enquiries.

The Company has adopted a Shareholder Communications Policy which aims to promote and facilitate effective two-way communication with investors. The Shareholder Communications Strategy outlines a range of ways in which information is communicated to shareholders.

The Shareholder Communications Policy can be found in Schedule 10 of the Board Charter which is available on the Company website, www.europeanmet.com/corporate-governance .

PRINCIPLE THREE

Considering wider stakeholder and social responsibilities

The Board recognises that the long term success of the Company is reliant upon the efforts of the employees of the Company and its contractors, suppliers, regulators and other stakeholders.

The Company has close ongoing relationships with a broad range of its stakeholders and provides them with the opportunity to raise issues and provide feedback to the Company.

PRINCIPLE FOUR

Risk Management

The Audit and Risk Committee was formed on 26 August 2015, with directors appointed as members of the Committee, being Mr Kiran Morzaria, Mr Reeves and Mr Coughlan. After Mr Reeves resignation on 30 June 2020 the Committee members changed to Mr Morzaria (Chairman), Mr Pavlik and Mr Coughlan, being all directors of the Company. The role and responsibilities of the Audit and Risk Committee are outlined in Schedule 3 of the Company's Corporate Governance Plan available online on the Company's website, www.europeanmet.com/corporate-governance .

The Board devotes time at board meetings to fulfilling the roles and responsibilities associated with overseeing risk and maintaining the entity's risk management framework and associated internal compliance and control procedures.

All letters of appointment of Directors are available for inspection at the Company's registered office during normal business hours.  The Board elects a Chairman to chair every meeting.

The Board holds formal meetings periodically as issues arise and require more details. The Directors are in contact and discuss all necessary issues on a regular basis and to ensure that the Non-Executive Directors while not involved in the day to day running of the Company are still kept up to date on a regular basis. 

The Company has established an Audit and Risk Committee, a Remuneration Committee and a Nomination Committee, particulars of which are set out in Principle Nine below.

Mr David Reeves acted as a Director and Non-Executive Chairman of the Company until his resignation on 30 June 2020, and Mr Keith Coughlan was appointed as Executive Chairman on an interim basis. The Board will continue to evaluate the possibility of appointing additional Non-Executive directors, but following the completion of the new partnership arrangements with CEZ earlier this year, the Board does not currently intend to make any new appointments of non-executive directors until the Company's operations increase in size and scale. Board composition will remain however under review.

Mr Morzaria is a Board nominee of Cadence Minerals Plc (previously named Rare Earth Minerals Plc), which owns 23,259,751 CDIs in the Company.

The Board Charter requires Directors to disclose their interest, positions, associations and relationships and requires that the independence of Directors is regularly assessed by the Board in light of the interests disclosed by Directors. Details of the Directors interests, positions associations and relationships are provided in the Annual Reports and Company website, www.europeanmet.com/directors-and-senior-management .

The Board Charter provides for the determination of the Directors' terms and requires the length of service of each Director to be disclosed. The length of service of each Director is provided in the Annual Reports and Company website, www.europeanmet.com/directors-and-senior-management . The Corporate Code of Conduct, which applies to the Company's directors, senior executives and employees is in Schedule 2 of the Corporate Governance Plan which is on the Company's website, www.europeanmet.com/corporate-governance .

PRINCIPLE SIX

Appropriate Skills and Experience of the Directors

The Company believes the current balance of skills in the Board as a whole, reflects a very broad range of commercial and professional skills across geographies and industries and each of the Director's has experience in public markets. An assessment of the Board's skills and expertise is also set out in the Corporate Governance Report included in the Company's Annual Report and Accounts, and which is available on the Company's website, https://www.europeanmet.com/shareholdercentre-reports.

The Board shall review annually the appropriateness and opportunity for continuing professional development whether formal or informal.

The process for this can be found in Schedule 6 of the Company's Corporate Governance Plan which requires the Board to disclose whether or not performance evaluations were conducted during the relevant reporting period.

Due to the size of the Board and the nature of the business, it has not been deemed necessary to institute a formal documented performance review program of individuals.  However, the Chairman intends to conduct formal reviews each financial year whereby the performance of the Board as a whole and the individual contributions of each director are disclosed.  The Board considers that at this stage of the Company's development an informal process is appropriate.

The review will assist to indicate if the Board's performance is appropriate and efficient with respect to the Board Charter.

The Board regularly reviews its skill base and whether it remains appropriate for the Company's operational, legal and financial requirements.  New Directors are obliged to participate in the Company's induction process, which provides a comprehensive understanding of the Company, its objectives and the market in which the Company operates.

Directors are encouraged to avail themselves of resources required to fulfil the performance of their duties.

The purpose of the Corporate Code of Conduct is to provide a framework for decisions and actions in relation to ethical conduct in employment.  It underpins the Company's commitment to integrity and fair dealing in its business affairs and to a duty of care to all employees, clients and stakeholders.  The document sets out the principles covering appropriate conduct in a variety of contexts and outlines the minimum standard of behaviour expected from employees.

The directors consider that at present the Company has an open culture facilitating comprehensive dialogue and feedback and enabling positive and constructive challenge.

Ultimate authority for all aspects of the Company's activities rests with the Board, the respective responsibilities of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer arising as a consequence of delegation by the Board. The Board has adopted appropriate delegations of authority which set out matters which are reserved to the Board. The Chairman is responsible for the effectiveness of the Board, while management of the Company's business and primary contact with shareholders has been delegated by the Board to the Managing Director.  As the Company does not currently have a Managing Director, Mr Keith Coughlan, in his role as Executive Chairman, is responsible for the management of the Company's business and primary contact with shareholders.
