FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Page 1 Interim Report 30 September 2023
Dear Shareholders


The Directors of Iperion Limited, formerly Southern Charter Financial Group Limited, (“the Company”) are

pleased to report its financial results for the six months ended 30 September 2023.


Financial Results

Iperion reports an unaudited net loss attributable to shareholders of $462,614 for the half year ended 30

September 2023. This compares with a net loss attributable to shareholders of $132,374 for the same period

last year.


The most notable change for the period is the establishment and commencement of the outsourced pilot

manufacturing plant, which added $300,000 to the expenses in the period. With the recent completion of the

plant setup and production trials, there was no production income in the period.


Compared to the prior period, administrative expenses incurred in the half year ended September 2023

increased by $40,767, much of which related to regulatory compliance costs, but also included a slight

increase in travel costs associated with management oversight of the overseas manufacturing plant.


Outlook

The Company remains in a position with a strong balance sheet which includes significant cash resources.

Having completed the establishment of the outsourced pilot scale production, the Company is currently in

the process of obtaining manufacturing and product certifications and engaging in sales and marketing

activities to move the Company into commercial production and sales. The Company will provide the market

with any updates as to material developments in due course.


The Directors of Iperion extend their thanks to the shareholders for their support of the Company.
