Delay to the Publication of Final Results

Critical Metals plc ("Critical Metals" or the Company"), an investment company established to target opportunities in the critical and strategic metals sector, would like to provide an update regarding the delay to the publication of its consolidated audited results for the financial year ended 30 June 2025 ("FYE 2025"). In accordance with the FCA's UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Company is required to publish its audited results for the year to 30 June 2025 by 31 October 2025. The Company's auditors, PKF Littlejohn LLP ("PKF"), have advised the Company that the audit process is near complete however the added company workload from the successful fundraise in August 2025, changes in the management structure, and additional work that the company has been engaged in to initiate a more extensive revenue generation led to delays in providing the auditor adequate time to complete their tasks. 

The Company will continue to work closely with PKF to ensure that the audited results for the FYE 2025 are published as soon as possible. This is expected by 4 November 2025. 

As a result of the delay in publishing the 2025 Annual Report, the Company's shares are temporarily suspended. The Company will request the restoration of the listing following the publication of its FYE 2025 audited results.'
