(2) Identified previously recoverable taxes registered in Mineração Apollo that are no longer recoverable and have been written-off. (3) Reclassification of mining rights from Intangible assets to Property and equipment, net in accordance with ASC 930-805, which provides that mining rights should be classified as tangible assets. The Company also reassessed the amounts composing consolidated Property and equipment, net and excluded amounts owned by two entities controlled by the same controlling shareholder of the Company (the “Excluded Entities”) from the consolidation as they do not qualify as entities controlled by the Company. (4) Reassessed the balance of investments and concluded that other than a fair value lower than carrying amount, there was no expectation of any future economic benefits being generated from the assets’ use or disposal, affecting the main condition for an asset to be recognized following US. GAAP literature. (5) Identified bonus payable to senior executives that was incurred but not accounted for in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. (6) Identified and corrected errors relating to the reconciliation of related party transactions and made resulting reclassifications. The amounts previously disclosed did not represent amounts payable to related parties, but to third parties. (7) Reclassified Tax refinancing from Accounts payable to Other current liabilities to adequate the presentation of each nature of liability which are tax installments agreed to be paid to the government generally in 48 months. (8) Reassessed the composition of additional paid-in capital and corrected a reconciliation error. (9) Identified and corrected the allocation of translation adjustments arising from a subsidiary’s balance sheet that were inadequately recognized as Other comprehensive income that should have been accounted for in Accumulated deficit. (10) Adjusted Accumulated deficit as a result of the reclassification described in item 9 and other adjustments recognized in the period in the profit and loss. (11) Reassessed the Company’s interest in each subsidiary’s net assets and concluded that amounts recorded as Non-controlling interest did not reflect non-controlling shareholders’ interests in the subsidiaries’ net assets. (12) Identified and corrected a timing error relating to the recognition of executive bonus that should have been accounted for in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and reclassified exploration-related expenses from General and administrative expenses to the Exploration line to reflect the exploration-related nature of such costs. (13) Identified and corrected a timing error relating to the recognition of stock-based compensation granted to senior executives of the Company that was recorded in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 but should have been recorded in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. (14) Identified and reclassified exploration costs previously presented as General and administrative expenses and Other operating expenses. (15) Identified and reclassified costs related to exploration activities from Other operating expenses to Exploration. Identified and excluded other operating expenses from the Excluded Entities that do not qualify as entities controlled by the Company. (16) Derecognized investments previously recorded, as explained in item 4, and reclassified expenses from General and administrative expenses to Other expense (income) to reflect the nature of such expenses. (17) Identified and corrected errors relating to the recalculation of foreign exchange transactions on subsidiaries’ balance sheets. (18) Derecognized cumulative translation adjustment of Atlas Litio. Its functional currency is US$, and impacts arising from the translation of foreign exchange transactions should not be allocated to Other comprehensive income. (19) Identified and corrected errors in right of use assets - operating leases related to the extension of the contract. (20) Identified and corrected an amount previously considered as a commission to be paid arising from the Royalty Agreement. The Royalty Agreement was not subject to any commissions payable. (21) Identified and corrected a timing error relating to the recognition of executive bonus that should have been accounted for in 2022 to reflect the correct presentation. (22) Recalculate the value of the foreign exchange translation for companies whose functional currency is dollar.
