Gain visibility in the ASX small cap watchlist with Coffee with Samso. Our platform transforms your announcements into engaging content. Coffee with Samso: Research Conversations with ASX Management Teams Coffee with Samso is a long-form video research conversation between Noel Ong and the people running ASX-listed companies. It is not an interview in the promotional sense. It is the structured conversation an analyst would have if they had ninety minutes, business-subject literacy, and a willingness to ask the second and third question. Samso’s coverage of Kaiser Reef stood out for its depth and preparation. Noel had clearly done the work on our assets before we spoke — the conversation went straight to the substance of the operation, and the audience response showed it reached investors who genuinely understand the sector. - Brad Valiukas - Managing Director, Kaiser Reef Limited (ASX: KAU) What It Is and What It is Not Coffee with Samso is not a five-minute promotional clip. It is not a curated soundbite. It is not a polished sizzle reel produced from a press release. It is a sustained, on-camera conversation in which a management team is asked to explain a project, a strategy or a decision in enough depth that a viewer who is doing their own research has something real to work with. For management teams, this means coming prepared. The conversation will cover the upside thesis, the principal risks, the geological or technical detail behind the claims, and the realistic execution path. Questions are asked because the audience will want them asked. Watch the latest Coffee with Samso Read the Editorial Charter Working with Samso Why The Format Works Most ASX small-cap communication is constrained by time. A five-minute clip cannot explain a deposit. A two-page note cannot explain a corporate strategy. A press release cannot weigh a risk. The long-form format is the format because the subject matter requires it. Noel’s background as a geologist (since 1992) and ASX founder means the conversation can be technical when it needs to be, and plain-language when it needs to be. The same conversation can explain a drill intercept to a sector specialist and the strategic significance of that intercept to a retail investor watching from outside the industry. What Viewers Get A viewer who watches a full Coffee with Samso comes away with a clear understanding of what the company actually does, where the project sits in its commodity cycle, what has to go right for the thesis to play out, what the risks are, and how the management team thinks about all of the above. That is what research-grade content looks like. How It Works For Subject Companies A Coffee with Samso conversation can be produced under either path to coverage: as Independent Coverage (Samso chooses the subject, no fee paid by the subject) or as part of a Samso Membership. Under membership, the Essential tier includes one Coffee with Samso or one Samso Insights piece per year; the Growth tier includes two Coffee with Samso conversations or two Samso Insights pieces per year; the Strategic tier includes the Growth allocation plus complimentary additional pieces. The format, the questions and the editorial standards are identical across paths. The label at the top of the published piece tells the viewer which path applies. The Disclosures page explains how member relationships are declared on each piece. Membership Packages Read the Editorial Cahrter A Note on the back Catalogue Samso has produced more than three hundred Coffee with Samso conversations to date. They are archived in the Research Library and remain available as a research resource on the companies, commodities and themes covered. Where companies have moved on, projects have changed hands, or commodity cycles have shifted, that historical archive becomes more useful, not less.

Every Samso piece on Actinogen Medical (ASX ACW), what Xanamem is being tested for, and exactly where each trial stands. Actinogen Medical (ASX ACW), Research and Coverage Actinogen Medical Ltd (ASX: ACW), formerly Actinogen Limited. This is not a mining company. It is a clinical-stage biotech with one drug candidate, classified by the ASX under Health Care. Actinogen is developing Xanamem. It has no product on the market and earns nothing from selling anything, so the money it spends comes from shareholders, from the Australian Government's research and development tax incentive, and from a loan written against that expected rebate. Xanamem is being tested as a treatment for Alzheimer's disease, and has also been tested in depression. The idea behind it is that the stress hormone cortisol, at high levels over long periods, harms the parts of the brain involved in memory. Xanamem is designed to block an enzyme called 11 beta-HSD1 that generates cortisol inside brain cells. That is the hypothesis the trials are testing. It is not an established fact. Xanamem is an investigational product and is not approved for use outside of a clinical trial by the FDA or by any global regulatory authority. Read More

Every Samso piece on Rimfire Pacific Mining (ASX RIM), plus what scandium is and what the Murga and Fifield projects hold. Rimfire Pacific Mining (ASX RIM), Research and Coverage Rimfire Pacific Mining Ltd (ASX: RIM). Rimfire is a mineral exploration company in New South Wales. It does not mine and does not sell anything, so the money it spends comes from shareholders rather than from sales. Its main subject is scandium, with gold and silver in one older project. Scandium needs explaining, because almost nobody holds it in a portfolio knowingly. It is a metal that, added to aluminium in small amounts, makes an alloy that is both lighter and stronger than aluminium alone and can be welded without losing strength. That matters for aircraft, for electric vehicle structures and for the ceramic parts in solid oxide fuel cells. The market for it is tiny, a few hundred tonnes a year worldwide, and there are very few primary producers, so a company with a large scandium deposit is making a bet that the market grows rather than that it can take share in an existing one.

How Samso labels every piece and declares commercial relationships, holdings and interests. Disclosures How Samso handles relationships, holdings and interests The Samso Editorial Charter sets out six commitments that govern everything Samso publishes. Two of them concern disclosure: every piece must state how it came to exist, and any holding, exposure or prior relationship must be declared. This page explains how both work in practice. HOW EVERY PIECE IS LABELLED Every Samso piece carries a label at the top stating how it came to exist. A piece cannot be published without one. Independent Research. Samso chose the subject. No fee was paid by the subject. Samso Research · Commissioned. The company commissioned a research workup. The fee covers research effort and access. It does not cover the conclusion. Samso Member — Essential / Growth / Strategic. The company holds a current Samso Membership at that tier. Membership covers research effort, access, scheduling and distribution. It does not cover the conclusion. Editorial control rests with Samso in all three cases. The label is at the top of the piece, before the content, so a reader knows what they are holding before they read a word. COMMERCIAL RELATIONSHIPS Where a company has a current or prior commercial relationship with Samso, that relationship is stated on the face of every piece we publish about that company. It is stated at the time of publication, which is the point at which it matters to a reader. Ending a relationship does not retract published work. Removing a piece because a company has left would undermine the credibility of every other piece on the platform. The original label stays, and a prior relationship is disclosed on any later coverage. HOLDINGS AND EXPOSURES Where Samso, Noel Ong personally, or a close associate holds a position in a company we cover, that holding is disclosed at the top of the piece. Holding is read broadly. It covers shares, options, convertible notes or any other security in the subject; founder, director or adviser roles held within the past three years; and family or trust interests known to Samso. Exposure also covers a material long or short position in a commodity a subject's project produces or consumes. Positions change. A standing list would be out of date the day after it was published, and an out of date list is a worse disclosure than none. So the disclosure is made on each piece, at the time of publication, current as at that date. When in doubt, we disclose. A holding does not prevent coverage. It is declared, every time. WHAT THIS MEANS FOR A READER You do not have to trust that Samso is independent. You can check it on the piece in front of you. If a piece carries no disclosure and you believe it should, that is a Charter breach and we want to hear about it. noel.ong@samso.com.au , subject line 'Editorial Charter'. Contact Us Privacy Policy

Every Samso piece on Critical Resources (ASX CRR), formerly Force Commodities (ASX 4CE), and what it holds in Canada, Oman and NSW. Critical Resources (ASX CRR), Research and Coverage Critical Resources Ltd (ASX: CRR), formerly Force Commodities (ASX: 4CE). Critical Resources is an exploration company with ground in four countries and, unusually, a technology programme alongside it. It does not mine and does not sell anything, so the money it spends comes from shareholders rather than from sales. Its three strands are lithium in Ontario in Canada, a polymetallic deposit in New South Wales plus copper licences in Oman and gold permits in New Zealand, and an evaluation programme on solid-state battery technology under option over United States university patents. That last one is not mining at all, and a reader weighing this company needs to know it exists. Its financial year ends on 31 December, not 30 June, which is unusual among ASX small caps. Read More

Every Samso piece on EchoIQ (ASX EIQ), plus what EchoSolv does and which of its two products the FDA has cleared, in plain English. EchoIQ (ASX EIQ), Research and Coverage Echo IQ Limited (ASX: EIQ), formerly Houston We Have Limited (ASX: HWH). EchoIQ sells software that helps doctors read heart scans. The scan in question is an echocardiogram, an ultrasound picture of a beating heart, which is the standard test a cardiologist orders when they suspect a heart valve or pumping problem. Reading one well takes expertise, and mild cases get missed. EchoIQ's product, EchoSolv, applies artificial intelligence to the measurements already recorded in a scan and flags patients who look like they have disease that warrants a closer look. There are two versions. EchoSolv AS looks for aortic stenosis, a narrowing of the main valve out of the heart. EchoSolv HF looks for heart failure. One of them is cleared for sale in the United States and one is not. Read More

Every Samso piece on Lion Rock Minerals (ASX LRM), formerly Peak Minerals (ASX PUA), and the Minta rutile project in Cameroon. Lion Rock Minerals (ASX LRM), Research and Coverage Lion Rock Minerals Ltd (ASX: LRM), formerly Peak Minerals (ASX: PUA). Lion Rock is a mineral exploration company. It does not mine and does not sell anything, so the money it spends comes from shareholders rather than from sales. Its work is concentrated on one project: Minta, an 8,800 square kilometre block in central Cameroon, in west Africa, where it is drilling for rutile and monazite. Rutile is a titanium mineral, the premium feedstock for titanium dioxide, the white pigment in paint, paper and sunscreen, and for titanium metal. Monazite is a phosphate mineral that carries rare earths, the metals used in the permanent magnets inside electric car motors and wind turbines. Finding both in the same material is the reason this project gets attention. In October 2025 Tronox, one of the world's largest titanium dioxide producers, invested A$8.6 million for about 5 per cent of the company plus a technical partnership. Read More

Every Samso piece on Western Yilgarn (ASX WYX), formerly Pacific Bauxite, and its Darling Range bauxite and gallium projects. Western Yilgarn (ASX WYX), Research and Coverage Western Yilgarn NL (ASX: WYX), formerly Pacific Bauxite NL. Western Yilgarn is a mineral exploration company in Western Australia. It does not mine and does not sell anything, so the money it spends comes from shareholders rather than from sales. It looks for two things: bauxite and gallium in the Darling Range near Perth, and gold in the Gascoyne region further north. Bauxite is the ore from which aluminium is made. It is refined into alumina, a white powder, which is then smelted into aluminium metal. Gallium is a soft metal recovered as a by-product of alumina refining, used in semiconductors, radar and light-emitting diodes. The company is early stage. It holds four mineral resources, all in the lowest confidence category, and it has no ore reserve and has published no scoping study, pre-feasibility study or feasibility study on anything.

Samso Australia is committed to ensuring your personal information is professionally managed. Our privacy policy is to provide information to you on how your personal information is collected and used within Samso Australia, and the circumstances in which we share it with third parties. The Samso Editorial Charter Samso Australia | Editorial Charter 27th May 2026 How we decide what to publish, how to label it, and what to disclose This Samso Charter is the binding internal standard that governs every piece of content Samso publishes, regardless of how the work was funded. It is published in full so that readers, members, and prospective members can see exactly what we hold ourselves to — and so that anyone who finds Samso falling short can hold the published commitments up against the work. Preamble - What This Charter Is and Is Not The Samso Charter is binding. Every Samso piece — Coffee with Samso, Samso News, Samso Insights, Samso Amplification, and any future format — is produced to it. The standards apply equally to Independent Coverage (where the subject pays no fee) and to coverage produced for Samso Members. Where the Charter and any other agreement, expectation or convenience are in tension, the Charter wins. The Charter is not a guarantee of accuracy. We do our best. We will sometimes be wrong. When we are, we correct the record visibly and on the record — see the Corrections section below. The Charter is also not financial advice; nothing on the Samso platform is. We publish research and education. Investors are expected to do their own work. The Six Commitments 01. Disclosure Every Samso piece carries a label at the top stating how it came to exist. Independent Research means Samso chose the subject and no fee was paid by the subject. Samso Research · Commissioned means the company commissioned a research workup; the fee covers research effort and access, and it does not cover the conclusion. Samso Member — Essential, Samso Member — Growth, and Samso Member — Strategic mean the subject is a current member of the Samso Membership programme at that tier, and that the piece was produced under the editorial terms of that membership. The label is non-negotiable. A piece cannot be published without one. Readers always know which path produced what they are reading. How membership and commissioned relationships are disclosed is set out at samso.com.au/disclosures, and the relationship is stated on every member-tier and commissioned piece. 02. Membership buys access, not opinion Where a company joins the Samso Membership programme, the fee covers Samso’s research effort, the access required to deliver the work at depth, scheduling priority, and a place in the distribution footprint. It does not cover the conclusion. Risks are weighed, claims are checked, opinions remain Samso’s. Editorial control rests with Samso. Concretely: a member does not have approval rights over a piece’s framing, the questions asked, the risks named, or the conclusions drawn. A member has the right to review the piece for factual accuracy of objectively-verifiable claims (project specifications, dates, mineral grades, financial numbers as filed) before publication. A member does not have the right to require softening of editorial judgement or removal of risk discussion. If a member finds the Charter’s terms unworkable, the right course is not to join. We say this plainly during the first conversation. 03. Both sides addressed Every company review must address both the upside thesis and the principal risks. A piece that does only the upside is not Samso research, regardless of whether it carries the brand. The risks named will be the risks that materially affect the investment case — not boilerplate disclaimer language. What this looks like in practice: a Coffee with Samso about a single-asset exploration company should address grade and continuity risk, permitting, financing, and the realistic execution path — not just the deposit. A Samso Insights piece on a commodity bull case should address the demand assumptions, supply response, and the macro conditions that could invalidate the thesis. 04. Claims checked, not repeated Claims made in ASX announcements are framed, contextualised against the sector and the cycle, and questioned where they warrant questioning. Samso does not reproduce a press release. We read it, place it in context, and assess what it does and does not establish. For technical claims (geological, scientific, engineering), Samso draws on the founder’s thirty-plus years of geological practice and, where useful, brings in external specialists with named relevant expertise. For financial claims, we work from filed numbers — not derived investor presentations — and we are explicit about the difference. Where a claim is contested in the public record (analyst notes, regulator filings, prior history), we say so. 05. Holdings and exposures disclosed Where Samso, Noel Ong personally, or any close associate has a holding, exposure, or prior commercial relationship with a subject — current or historical — the disclosure is made at the top of the piece. How Samso treats holdings and exposures is set out at samso.com.au/disclosures. ‘Holding’ is read broadly: equity, options, convertible notes, or any other security in the subject; founder, director or adviser positions held by Noel within the past three years; family-office or trust interests known to Samso. ‘Exposure’ includes commodity exposure where Samso is materially long or short a commodity that the subject’s project produces or consumes. When in doubt, we disclose. 06. Not financial advice Samso publishes research and education. Nothing on the Samso platform is, or should be construed as, personal financial advice. Investors are expected to do their own work, including taking advice from a licensed adviser appropriate to their circumstances. We provide depth, not direction. We will explain a thesis, weigh it against its risks, and tell you what we find compelling and what we find unresolved. We will not tell you to buy, sell, or hold. Editorial Disagreement Procedure Step 1: Pre-publication review for factual accuracy The member receives the piece in draft. They may flag any objectively-verifiable factual errors. Samso reviews each item and corrects what needs to be corrected. The member does not see editorial framing, questions or conclusions for approval — only the facts to be checked. Step 2: Editorial judgement remains with Samso If the disagreement is about framing, emphasis, the inclusion of a risk, or the substance of a conclusion, Samso’s judgement is final. The piece is published. The member may, if they wish, have a brief response statement noted in the piece or appended to it — clearly labelled as the member’s response. Step 3: If a member chooses to leave A member is free to terminate membership at any time. Termination does not retract published work — doing so would undermine the credibility of every piece on the platform. The prior relationship is disclosed on any later coverage of that company. Reader Objections Reader objections to coverage are handled separately. A reader who believes a piece falls short of the Charter can raise it via the channels at the foot of this page. Reader objections that identify substantive Charter breaches are investigated; outcomes are recorded in the Corrections section. Corrections When Samso publishes something materially wrong — a factual error, a misattributed claim, a number that turns out to be incorrect, an interpretation that does not survive new information — we correct it visibly and on the record. Corrections are appended to the original piece, dated, and listed on a public Corrections page. Material errors are corrected within five business days of being identified. Non-material corrections (typos, minor wording) are made silently. The distinction is whether a reasonable reader’s understanding of the piece would change. Charter Version History This Charter is versioned. The current version is shown at the top of this page with its effective date. Material changes are listed in a public changelog below. ‘Material’ means any change to the six commitments, the editorial disagreement procedure, or the disclosure standards. Editorial copy-edits to the Charter that do not change substance are not versioned. Contact for Charter matters Reader objections, requests for clarification on how the Charter was applied to a specific piece, and proposed amendments can be sent directly to Noel: noel.ong@samso.com.au , subject line ‘Editorial Charter’.
