Financial Instruments and Financial Risk – continued Financial risk management objectives and policies – continued (i) Currency risk Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currencies. Management does not hedge its exposure to foreign exchange risk. The Company’s corporate expenses are denominated in Canadian dollars (“CAD”), and it does not have any significant foreign currency denominated monetary liabilities. The Company’s corporate office is based in Canada and current exposure to exchange rate fluctuations is minimal. The principal business of the Company is the identification and evaluation of assets or a business and once identified or evaluated, to negotiate an acquisition or participation in a business subject to receipt of shareholder approval and acceptance by regulatory authorities. The Company’s Australian subsidiary is exposed to foreign currency risk on fluctuations related to cash and accounts payable that are denominated in Australian dollars (“AUD”). The following is an analysis of the Canadian dollar equivalent of financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in Australian dollars: December 31, 2025 Cash AUD$ 384 Accounts payable (53,926) Total in foreign currency (53,542) Net exposure 4,567 Canadian dollar equivalents $ (48,975

) Based on the net Canadian dollar denominated asset and liability exposures as at December 31, 2025, a 10% fluctuation in the CAD/AUD exchange rates would impact the Company’s earnings for the nine months ended December 31, 2025 by $4,897. (ii) Interest rate risk The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on the variable rate of interest earned on bank deposits. The fair value interest rate risk on bank deposits is insignificant as the deposits are short‐term. The Company has not entered into any derivative instruments to manage interest rate fluctuations. (iii) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with the counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. To minimize the credit risk, the Company places these instruments with a high quality financial institution. Storm Exploration Inc.
