| ZENTEK LTD. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| (Stated in Canadian Dollars) AS AT DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 |
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN
Zentek Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated on July 29, 2008 under the laws of the province of Ontario, Canada. The principal business of the Company is to develop opportunities in the graphene and related nano-materials industry based on its intellectual property, patents and Albany graphite. The address of the Company's executive office is 24 Corporate Court, Guelph, Ontario, N1G 5G5, Canada.
The Company is an emerging high-tech nano-graphite and graphene materials company based in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. The current focus is to bring to market innovative products including surgical masks and HVAC filters with the Company's ZenGUARDTM coating, Rapid Detection Point of Care diagnostics tests and continue to develop potential pharmaceutical products based on its patent-pending graphene-based compound.
The business of mining and exploring for minerals involves a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that current exploration programs will result in profitable mining operations. The recoverability of the carrying value of exploration properties and the Company's continued existence is dependent upon the preservation of its interest in the underlying properties, the discovery of economically recoverable reserves, the achievement of profitable operations, or the ability of the Company to raise alternative financing, if necessary, or alternatively upon the Company's ability to dispose of its interests on an advantageous basis. Changes in future conditions could require material write downs of the carrying values.
Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to the properties on which it is conducting exploration and in which it has an interest, in accordance with industry standards for the current stage of exploration of such properties, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Property title may be subject to unregistered prior agreements, social licensing requirements and non-compliance with regulatory requirements. The Company's assets may also be subject to increases in taxes and royalties, renegotiation of contracts, and political uncertainty.
The Company's operating segments are organized into the following reportable segments:
- Intellectual Property Development - Includes manufacturing and distribution of graphene related products.
- Biotech - Includes service revenue generated through aptamer technology.
- Albany Project - Includes the exploration and evaluation asset and mineral exploration activities.
- Unallocated Corporate Costs - Includes corporate activities and certain unallocated costs.
During the year ended March 31, 2025, the Company adopted segment reporting as a result of revenue being recognized in an additional segment. The comparative figures have been restated to reflect the change in segment reporting.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on February 17, 2026.
The technology industry presents a high degree of risk and there can be no assurance that the Company's research and development will result in profitable operations. The Company's ability to meet its obligations arising from normal business operations, continue its research and development, and generate future profits is dependent upon its ability to obtain necessary financing. While the Company has been successful at raising funds in the past, there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future. These consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.

| (Stated in Canadian Dollars) AS AT DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 |
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN (continued)
As at December 31, 2025, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and had an accumulated deficit of $87,697,090 and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. These events and conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining continued financial support, obtaining financing, or generating profitable operations in the future. Management is committed to raising additional capital to meet its obligations; however, additional debt and/or equity financing is subject to the global financial markets and economic conditions.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the statement of financial position classifications that would be necessary if the going concern assumption was not appropriate. Any adjustments necessary to the consolidated financial statements if the Company ceases to be a going concern could be material.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and have been condensed with certain disclosures from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 (the "Annual Financial Statements") omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Statements.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. The Company has the following wholly owned subsidiaries: Triera Biosciences Ltd., 1000114904 Ontario Inc., Zentek USA Inc. and Albany Graphite Corp.

| (Stated in Canadian Dollars) AS AT DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025 AND 2024 |
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
a) Changes in accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2025 in addition to the new standards and amendments adopted as detailed below.
Certain IFRS Accounting Standards were issued that were mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after April 1, 2025. Many have been excluded as management does not expect them to have a material effect. The following amendments are effective for the year beginning April 1, 2025:
IAS 21 - The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates
In August 2023, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued narrow-scope amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates, which were incorporated into Part I of the CPA Canada Handbook - Accounting in November 2023. The amendments specify how to determine whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency and how to determine the spot exchange rate when a currency lacks exchangeability.
A currency is exchangeable into another currency when an entity is able to obtain the other currency within a time frame that allows for a normal administrative delay and through a market or exchange mechanism in which an exchange transaction would create enforceable rights and obligations.
An entity assesses whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency at the measurement date and for a specified purpose. If an entity is able to obtain no more than an insignificant amount of the other currency at the measurement date for the specified purpose, the currency is not exchangeable into the other currency.
When a currency is not exchangeable into another currency at a measurement date, an entity is required to estimate the spot exchange rate as the rate at which an orderly exchange transaction would take place at the measurement date between market participants under prevailing economic conditions.
When an entity estimates a spot exchange rate because a currency is not exchangeable into another currency, the amendments require an entity to disclose information that enables the users of the financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's financial performance, financial position and cash flows, including the risks to which the entity is exposed because of the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency.
There was no material impact to the financial statement of the Company upon adoption of this standard.
b) Future changes in accounting standards
There are a number of standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations which have been issued by the IASB that are effective in future accounting periods that the Company has decided not to adopt early.
The following amendments are effective for the year beginning April 1, 2026:
Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments)
The following amendments are effective for the year beginning April 1, 2027:
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (New)
The Company is currently assessing the impact of these new accounting standards and amendments.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
c) Significant judgements
In preparing the Company's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025, the Company applied the critical judgements and estimates disclosed in Note 3 of the Annual Financial Statements.
d) Convertible debentures
The Company's convertible debentures are segregated into their debt and equity elements at the date of issue, based on their initial fair values. The debt element of the instruments is classified as a liability, and recorded as the present value of the Company's obligation to make future interest payments in cash, and settle the redemption value of the instrument in cash or shares. The carrying value of the debt element is accreted to the original face value of the instruments, over their deemed life, using the effective interest method. The equity element equals the difference between the fair value of the convertible debenture as a whole and the fair value of the liability element.
On conversion, if the Company settles in shares, the carrying amount of the equity element and the carrying amount of the debt element, including any accrued interest, are reclassified to share capital. Alternatively, if the Company settles in cash, any gain/loss arising from extinguishment of the debentures are recorded in profit (loss) of the current year. Any gain/loss arising from the settlement of the equity element is recognized in equity.
In the event that the instruments are not converted and the conversion option expires at maturity, the Company accounts for the settlement of the instruments at redemption value, which is equal to the stated principal amount of the instruments. The debt element is derecognized, and the carrying amount of the equity element is reclassified to contributed equity. If the Company settles the debt element through issuance of shares, the redemption value of the debt element is credited to share capital.

In January 2025, the Canada Revenue Agency ("CRA") completed its audit of the Company's 2018 and 2019 renunciation of certain Canadian exploration expenses ("CEE") in favour of subscribers of flow-through share private placements that closed on December 21, 2018 and December 20, 2019 (the "Flow-Through Financings") for aggregate proceeds of $4,210,000.
In February 2025, the Company received a Notice of Reassessment ("NOR") from CRA in respect of its 2018 Flow-Through Financing. This NOR assessed a reduction in amounts previously renounced and resulted in additional Part XII.6 tax of $59,693.
In October 2025, the Company received a Notice of Reassessment ("NOR") from CRA in respect of its 2019 Flow-Through Financing. This NOR assessed a reduction in amounts previously renounced and resulted in additional Part XII.6 tax of $22,482.
The Company has estimated its potential Part XII.6 liability as a result of the CRA audit to be $93,000. The reduction in previously provided renunciations may also result in an additional obligation for the Company to indemnify certain flow-through shareholders due to reductions in previously flowed through CEE deductions. Management has estimated this indemnification obligation to be $427,000.
A provision of $408,207 has been recognized for this liability and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. $10,825 of this liability consists of management's estimate of Part XII.6 tax owing and $397,382 consists of management's estimate of the Company's indemnification obligation.

8. LEASE LIABILITY
During the year ended March 31, 2021, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its manufacturing facility in Guelph, Ontario. The initial term of the lease was for three years commencing on February 1, 2021, subject to a right of extension. In July 2023, the Company acted upon the renewal option for an additional 36 months, extending to January 31, 2027.
The lease liability relates to the above noted agreement. The lease liability as at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025 is as follows:

9. LONG-TERM DEBT
Pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated February 10, 2022, the Company acquired the land, building and chattels at 24 Corporate Court in Guelph, Ontario for cash consideration of $351,000 and assumed a mortgage of $1,949,000. The mortgage was assumed in a vendor-take-back agreement with the seller of the property who is an insignificant shareholder and not an insider of the Company. There are no financial covenants associated with this agreement. On April 1, 2023, the repayment terms were renegotiated to extend the amortisation period by an additional 12 months to March 1, 2025 and reduce the monthly installment from $85,504 to $43,764, including interest at 5% per annum. On October 1, 2023, the repayment terms were amended with payments moving to interest only for the next six months ending March 1, 2024. As a result, the loan repayment was further extended by seven months with a new maturity date of October 1, 2025. The Company did not consider this extension to be a substantial modification to the vendor-take-back agreement. On March 20, 2025, the Company and the lender agreed to suspend further payments, including interest only payments, until after the property held for sale closed.

During the nine month period ended December 31, 2025, the Company issued 1,579,000 stock options to a number of consultants, employees, officers and directors at an exercise price of $1.06. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $927,879.

During the nine month period ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued 2,000,000 stock options to a number of consultants, employees and directors at exercise prices ranging from $1.42 to $1.52. The grant date fair value of these stock options was $1,802,247.

In addition, during the nine month period ended December 31, 2024, the Company's subsidiary, Triera Biosciences Ltd. ("Triera"), issued 5,000 stock options to a consultant at an exercise price of $1.00. The grant date fair value of these stock options was determined to be trivial and no stock-based compensation was recorded in relation to these options. The vesting period for the Triera stock options issued was as follows: 1,667 on June 1, 2024; 1,667 on June 1, 2025; and 1,666 on June 1, 2026.
The grant date fair value of the stock options was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. A summary of the inputs used to value the options issued during the nine months ended December 31 is presented below:
| Triera | The Company | ||||
| Dec 31, 2025 | Dec 31, 2024 | Dec 31, 2025 | Dec 31, 2024 | ||

| Expected life | N/A | 3 years | 3 to 5 years | 3 to 5 years | |
The Company's computation of expected volatility for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 is based on the Company's market close price over a prior period equal to the expected life of the options except for the volatility of the Triera options which is based on a comparable publicly traded company.
The Company applies the fair value method of accounting for share-based payment awards to directors, officers, employees and non-employees. Accordingly, the following amounts have been recognised as compensation expense and under capital stock as share-based payment reserve:

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
a) Environmental Contingencies
The Company's activities are subject to various laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. These laws and regulations are continually changing and generally becoming more restrictive. The Company believes its operations are materially in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
b) Research Agreements
The Company has entered various agreements with arms' length parties pertaining to ongoing science efforts in pursuit of research and/or development and intellectual property with the objective of profitably bringing products to market. Many of the counterparties to these agreements are Canadian universities and affiliated individuals. These agreements can be generalized as having 'no fault' termination clauses regarding ongoing commitments and future liability when the Company determines that the pursuit becomes ineffective or unlikely to result in a profitable or commercially-viable product.
Under certain of these technology license agreements with Canadian universities, the Company has an obligation to pay royalties on revenues from any subject technologies. No such revenues have been earned to date.
c) Contingent liabilities
In September 2018, the Company received a statement of claim from a former employee. The Company is in the process of defending the claim, but views the claim as unmeritorious. On March 24, 2020, the Company commenced an action claim against the former employee for relief relating to contracts and transactions between that employee and the Company, seeking to set aside those agreements and, where applicable, seeking disgorgement of unspecified amounts relating to benefits obtained under those agreements. Although there can be no assurance that any particular claim will be resolved in the Company's favour, management does not believe that the outcome of any claim or potential claims of which it is currently aware will have a material adverse effect on the Company. The trial commenced on October 21, 2024 and closing submissions were held on January 17, 2025. No final judgement has been received at the time of release of these financial statements.
15. NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per share figures are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 is 106,758,061 and 105,357,533 respectively (2024: 104,075,592 and 102,559,964). Diluted net loss per share figures are calculated after taking into account all warrants and stock options granted. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all stock options and warrants were excluded from the diluted per share amounts as their effect is anti-dilutive in loss periods.
