Fertoz Carbon partnered with both Brightspot and DataPLP to provide
Protocols in development include:
consulting services in carbon sequestration programs. Brightspot, a
leading Canadian consultancy, will work closely with Fertoz Carbon
to develop projects through to verification stage, applying innovative
solutions that in turn assist in mitigating climate change. DataPLP, a data
services company, will provide valuable proprietary software used to
evaluate satellite data across the agricultural and environmental space,
generating valuable analytics for better project level decision making.
As Fertoz enters 2022, we are witnessing a volatile start to the year
in the agricultural sector in all the markets in which the Company
operates. According to commodity consulting group CRU, prices for
raw materials that constitute the conventional, synthetic fertilizer
marketplace - ammonia, nitrogen, phosphates, potash, and sulphates
- are all up approximately 30% since the start of 2022. Further to this,

Fertoz is capitalising on the fact that North America is heavily reliant
on the importing of phosphate rock from countries including Morocco,
South America, Russia and Saudi Arabia. Fertoz supplies the North
American farm sector from deposits and stockpiles located close to
the farming customer and is beginning to display this competitive
advantage, as sales in Q1 2022 are materially higher year-on-year.
Management remains confident that these trends should see 2022
exceed the 2021 year with a record volume of fertiliser sales.
The carbon division has already signed acres under the no-till protocol
and as such Fertoz Carbon is developing a recurring income stream
for the Group. The carbon team is working hard to bring additional
protocols to market in 2022 and also commence commercial carbon

OPERATIONS REVIEW
COMPANY OVERVIEW
GLOBAL TEMPERATURE & CARBON DIOXIDE
Fertoz Limited (ASX: FTZ) is a sustainable land management company.
Fertoz provides investors with exposure to growth in the organic
food sector and a direct exposure to the carbon markets as an
emerging project developer and manager of carbon projects globally.
Management has focused on developing a significant organic farm
inputs business and establishing a growing nature-based carbon credit
portfolio from developed and managed carbon projects.

A key factor driving Fertoz’s entry into global carbon markets and
project development has been the setting of the “net zero” targets
by 2050 by governments and companies worldwide. This is no longer
the domain of scientists or environmental groups. In a bid to limit
global warming governments, companies and investors are making
commitments to reach these “net zero” targets staged by 2030 and
zero by 2050.
Fertoz is positioning its carbon division to develop and manage both
farm based and reforestation carbon projects, generating valuable
nature-based carbon credits. The Fertoz board believe that high
quality credits will remain an important tool in decarbonisation efforts,
compounding the favourable supply and demand dynamics of this
emerging industry.
ESG FOCUS
Fertoz’s focus will develop well beyond just developing carbon credits.
Fertoz carbon projects will improve livelihoods through better land
management practices and traceable food supply chains, ultimately
reducing or eliminating the use of chemicals in the farming sector.
Reforestation will empower local villages and communities with
employment opportunities and provide for funding streams (from
carbon credit sales) and community infrastructure benefits. The
reforestation projects will also have a strong focus on restoring
biodiversity and animal life, improving soil erosion and improving
water quality.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES
1.
Fertoz has secured the majority of high grade, low impurity rock
phosphate deposits in North America and has had those deposits
certified organic at all the key Federal and State Authorities.
2.
The phosphate deposits/stockpiles contain significant tonnage to
meet decades of anticipated supply and demand
3. Our facilities and contracted processing facilities throughout
western North America are located close to a huge grower base
4.
Fertoz’s 8+ years running multiple crop and soil trials gives us an
important understanding and advantage to develop protocols
for registration with carbon regulators focusing on plant and soil
sequestration advantages utilising best practice regenerative and
sustainable farming methods
5.
Fertoz is rapidly advancing carbon program protocols, contracts
with our partner Trimble, contracts with fertilizer dealers and
growers that purchase our rock phosphate products.
We have an inputs business and years of lab tests, soil tests, trials
and actual production on farms – we can prove the benefits of
using our products and we now offer additional services in carbon
management, carbon credit generation and trading
Our products increase plant growth and thus CO2 sequestration;
our products can be blended with synthetic/conventional
fertilizers to reduce overall CO2 emissions (1t of nitrous oxide from
conventional nitrogen fertilizers is equivalent to 296t of CO2)
Importantly, our products facilitate discussions in carbon
emissions reduction – from sequestering more CO2 from plant
growth, to reforesting unused areas on farms, to improving the
efficiency of cattle production thus reducing methane emissions
from herds (1t of methane is equivalent to 25t of CO2)

North America
Fertoz Limited (ASX: FTZ) is a sustainable land management company.
Fertoz provides investors with exposure to growth in the organic
food sector and a direct exposure to the carbon markets as an
emerging project developer and manager of carbon projects globally.
Management has focused on developing a significant organic farm
inputs business and establishing a growing nature-based carbon credit
portfolio from developed and managed carbon projects.
Fertoz North America ended 2021 achieving record annual sales in line
with the budgeted 10,000 tonnes, delivering year-on-year (YoY) growth
in excess of 240% in tonnes sold in 2021. Sales revenue was a record
$2.09 million. Included in the $2.09 million is $943,000 of sales income
that has been offset against capitalised exploration and evaluation
expenditure, as the sale of this product is part of the bulk sampling
and evaluation phase for the tenements from which it was taken. This
accounting treatment is in accordance with Australian accounting
standards.
Inventory mined and held over to the 2022 season was a record 16,000
tonnes, ensuring adequate fertilizer for Q1/Q2 2022. The granulator
currently being installed at the Centennial site in Butte, Montana will
commence granulation of rock phosphate for sale from May 2022
Fertoz continues to develop various product blends to suit different
customer demands, soil conditions and regional applications.
Fertoz now markets 15 blends in North America from various sized rock
phosphate, granulated rock phosphate, finemesh powder for fertigation
applications and the recently launched organic NPKS range of blends.
Launching in 2022 will be a range of Humi (K) phosphate blends aimed
at improving soil health, increasing soil microbiology and activity
including increasing carbon in the soil.
Fertoz has increased 2022 pricing across the range of blends by
approximately 20%, recognising increased processing and transport
costs and challenges in supply chain logistics. Fertoz is investigating
more cost-effective solutions including rail to ease cost pressures on
farmers. This will result in savings delivered to buyers and make Fertoz
more widely available to large dealer networks and partner distributors
for organic fertilisers.
Fertoz will continue to expand its market share of organic acres in
North America and increasingly push into regenerative and sustainable
fertiliser solutions targeting conventional farming operations and
offering a superior environmental solution to farmers substituting the
use of chemically developed synthetic fertilisers.

Research already highlights the success of removal credits (with forestry
and renewables driving these removals of CO2), however, together with
that approach, Fertoz Carbon sees a significant opportunity in reducing
or avoiding GHG emissions (agricultural focused) by developing and
having approved practical and measurable protocols that farmers
and those in the agricultural industry can adapt and manage for the
reduction and/or removal of GHG emissions from farm based activities.

In December 2021, Fertoz Carbon together with its partner Trimble
Inc (NASDAQ: TRMB), successfully registered a “no-till conservation
cropping” protocol with the Canadian Registry. A shift from conventional
farming to conservation cropping increases carbon sequestered in
the soil. Fertoz Carbon expects first acres contracted and first carbon
income in 1H 2022 under this protocol.
Trimble Inc has contracted Microsoft Corporation to purchase all
carbon credits under the “no-till” protocol program. Fertoz Carbon,
together with Trimble Inc, is finalising for approval in Canada a Nitrous
Oxide Emission Reduction protocol. This will focus on a new protocol
that better manages nitrogen practices and applications on Canadian
farms. The focus of the protocol is developing farm rules that result in
more efficient use of nitrogen, less run off and leaching and therefore
improved environmental impacts. The Company’s research indicates
that utilising Fertoz-developed “NPKS Nutrient Vigour Plus” fertiliser
offers the potential to enhance carbon credit availability under the
protocol, and could materially improve the environmental impacts
versus synthetic fertilisers.
Fertoz Carbon is actively researching and developing further carbon
protocols in house. Studies are underway using rock phosphate to lower
Scope 3 emissions from fertiliser production. The manufacturing of rock
phosphate omits materially less CO2 than those emissions generated
from the production of chemical fertilisers.
In October 2021, Fertoz Carbon engaged Strongfield Environmental
to drone seed and fertilise (rock phosphate) two trial sites: BC Canada
and West Virginia, USA. The trial was utilised to access the data on
the effectiveness of drone seeding reforestation projects, determining
initial seedling yields and potentially substantially lowering the cost of
establishing reforestation projects in North America.
Fertoz Carbon continues to access suitable land, partners, local villages
and communities and project economics on carbon forestry projects
targeting North America, South America, and Asia. Fertoz Carbon
expects to announce the first commercial forestry projects in
calendar 2022.
SAFETY
There were no lost time injuries or environmental incidents recorded
during the 12 months ending 31 December 2021.
OUTLOOK
North America
As we have demonstrated, Fertoz has worked to build a sustainability-
based product supply company. The Company’s 2021 achievements
indicate the growth, focus, execution and cash positive direction. While
we are the top rock phos products provider in North America, we have
added the Fertoz Carbon programs that look to deliver growth, acres,
tonnes and carbon trading revenues. 2022 is well underway, but our
focus is:
1. Capitalize on the disrupted global supply of phosphate and supply
chains. We can offer quality products and blends at a far better price
per pound of nutrient and freight.
2. Mining - Extract from our Wapiti mine. Supply eastern central BC
and western, central Alberta. Extract from Fernie BC, and our leases
in western Alberta, to supply southern AB and Saskatchewan, as well
as the Pacific Northwest. Expand and extend our supply contract in
Deerlodge, Montana. Our Monterrey, Mexico mine is expanding and we
are requesting larger volumes.
3. Processing - Focusing on reducing costs and working in close
coordination with our facilities in western AB, southern AB, Montana,
Idaho, Utah and Mexico.
4. Transportation - as noted extensively above, supply chain disruptions,
globally and in North America, will persist for several years. We will
continue to expand our use of rail and ensure that we have a chain of
contract processing facilities in our major sales regions.
5. Sales - In 2021, we picked up a number of new customers. Even in the
first few months of 2022, we have added 5-10 new, large customers. All
have noted that they are trying Fertoz products due to the high costs of
conventional synthetic fertilizer, or non-competitive freight rates.
We think this growth trend will continue.
As we look at 1-2-3-year projections and sales, we plan to:
•

been implemented in January and May 2022 to recover the increased
costs. Sales are expected to exceed 2022 budget figures but have been
affected by extensive flooding in NSW and Queensland.
Several opportunities in Australia and Asia are being investigated to
generate carbon income through the sale of carbon dioxide equivalent
tonnes. It is expected these will be generated from improvements in
agriculture and planting trees.
Cover cropping, no-till practices and reforestation can all increase the
amount of carbon credits available to farmers. Production of Fertoz
products is low carbon intensity, allowing farmers to secure more
carbon credits for their crops. Fertoz products enhance growth leading
to more sequestration of carbon.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
REMUNERATION REPORT (AUDITED)
The remuneration report details the key management personnel remuneration arrangements for the consolidated entity, in
accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and its Regulations.
Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the
activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including all directors.
The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:
●
●
●
●
●
Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
Details of remuneration
Service agreements
Share-based compensation
Additional disclosures relating to key management personnel
PRINCIPLES USED TO DETERMINE THE NATURE AND AMOUNT OF REMUNERATION
The objective of the consolidated entity's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance is competitive and
appropriate for the results delivered. The framework aligns executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives and
the creation of value for shareholders and conforms to the market best practice for the delivery of reward. The Board of
Directors (“the Board”) ensures that executive reward satisfies the following key criteria for good reward governance practices:
●
●
●
●
competitiveness and reasonableness
acceptability to shareholders
performance linkage / alignment of executive compensation
transparency
The Board undertakes the responsibilities of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee and is responsible for determining
and reviewing remuneration arrangements for its directors and executives. The performance of the consolidated entity
depends on the quality of its directors and executives. The remuneration philosophy is to attract, motivate and retain high
performance and high-quality personnel. The Board has structured an executive remuneration framework that is market
competitive and complementary to the reward strategy of the consolidated entity.
●
●
The framework seeks to align performance to shareholders' interests by:
having economic profit as a core component of plan design
focusing on sustained growth in shareholder wealth as well as focusing the executive on key non-financial drivers
of value
attracting and retaining high calibre executives
●
and aligns the program participants' interests by:
rewarding capability and experience
reflecting competitive reward for contribution to growth in shareholder wealth
providing a clear structure for earning rewards
●
●
●
In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive directors and executive remunerations
are separate.
Non-executive directors’ remuneration
Fees and payments to non-executive directors reflect the demands and responsibilities of their role. Non-executive directors'
fees and payments are reviewed annually by the Board. The Board may, from time to time, receive advice from independent
remuneration consultants to ensure non-executive directors' fees and payments are appropriate and in line with the market.
Non-executive directors receive share options to ensure alignment with the Boards responsibility of creating shareholder
wealth. The remuneration for the non-executive directors has been set at $36,000 per annum.
ASX listing rules require the aggregate non-executive director’s remuneration be determined periodically by a general meeting.
The most recent determination was at the Annual General Meeting held on 29 May 2012, where the shareholders approved an
aggregate remuneration of $250,000 per annum.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT
REMUNERATION REPORT (audited) (continued)
Executive remuneration
The consolidated entity aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration based on their position and
responsibility, which has both fixed and variable components.
The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components:
● base pay and non-monetary benefits
● short-term performance incentives
● share-based payments
● other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave payable to eligible employees
The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration.
Fixed remuneration, consisting of base salary and non-monetary benefits, are reviewed annually by the Board, based on
individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of the consolidated entity and comparable market
remunerations.
Executives may receive their fixed remuneration in the form of cash or other fringe benefits (for example motor vehicle
benefits) where it does not create any additional costs to the consolidated entity and provides additional value to the
executive.
The consolidated entity does not have short-term incentives ('STI') at this time
The company may issue options to provide an incentive for key management personnel which, it is believed, is in line with
industry standards and practice and is also believed to align the interests of key management personnel with those of the
company’s shareholders.
Consolidated entity performance and link to remuneration
The consolidated entity’s remuneration framework is designed to attract, retain and motivate those people who can drive
Fertoz’ culture and deliver its business strategy and supports alignment to long term overall company performance and
creation of shareholder value. Remuneration packages are structured that rewards meeting individual, business unit and the
entity’s targets and objectives, including maximising returns for shareholders.
The link between remuneration, company performance and shareholder wealth generation is tenuous, particularly in the
exploration and development stage of a minerals company. Share prices are subject to the influence of international phosphate
prices and market sentiment towards the sector and increases or decreases may occur independently of executive performance
or remuneration.
The earnings of the consolidated entity for the year ended 30 June 2018, six months ended 31 December 2018 and years ended

Proceedings on behalf of the company
No person has applied to the Court under section 237 of the Corporations Act 2001 for leave to bring proceedings on behalf of
the company, or to intervene in any proceedings to which the company is a party for the purpose of taking responsibility on
behalf of the company for all or part of those proceedings.
Non-audit services
Amounts paid or payable to BDO Services Pty Ltd, a related company of the auditor, for non-audit services provided during the
year ended 31 December 2021 by the auditor related to preparation of the tax return and taxation advice of $8,100 (2020:
$9,457).
The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another
person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the
Corporations Act 2001.
The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 20 to the financial statements do not compromise the
external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
● all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity
of the auditor; and
● none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of
Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including
reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company,
acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

Leases
Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognized at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which
comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the
cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and
restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life
of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the
end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or
adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.
The group has elected not to recognize a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms
of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as incurred.

Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognized at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognized at the present value
of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that
rate cannot be readily determined, the consolidated entity’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed
payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected
to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably
certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a
rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if
there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee;
lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is
made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written
down.

Going Concern (continued)
These conditions give rise to material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the Group’s ability to continue as a
going concern.
•
•
•
The directors believe that the going concern basis of preparation is appropriate due to the following reasons:
The group has a cash balance of $5,196,846
proven ability of the Group to raise the necessary funding or settle debts via the issuance of shares; and
the group is operating an expanding rock phosphate and organic fertilizer business and plans to continue to
expand this business in the coming year.
Should the Group be unable to continue as a going concern, it may be required to realise its assets and extinguish its liabilities
other than in the ordinary course of business, and at amounts that differ from those stated in the financial report. This financial
report does not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts or classification of liabilities and appropriate disclosures that may be necessary should the Group be unable to continue
as a going concern.
Short term lease
The Group has a short-term office lease arrangement that is a month-to-month lease. The lease arrangement is such that,
either party to the contract can give notice to terminate the arrangement or the contract does not oblige either party to make
a payment on termination. As a result, the Group has assessed the lease arrangement to be non- enforceable, therefore
continues to recognise any lease payments as an expense through the profit or loss.
Note 3. Operating segments
Identification of reportable operating segments
The consolidated entity is organised into two operating segments based on geographical location being Australian and
Canadian operations, reflected by the subsidiaries in the Group. These operating segments are based on the internal reports
that are reviewed and used by the board of Directors (who are identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”)) in
assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
The CODM reviews earnings before and after tax. The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are
consistent with those adopted in the financial statements.
Where applicable, corporate costs, finance costs, interest revenue, tax and foreign currency gains and losses are not allocated
to segments as they are not considered part of the core operations of the segments and are managed on a consolidated entity
basis thus disclosed under unallocated category

Price risk
The policy of the consolidated entity is to sell phosphate-based fertilizer at the spot price and it has not entered into any
hedging contracts. The consolidated entity's revenues were exposed to fluctuation in the price of this commodity. If the
average selling price for the financial year had increased/decreased by 10% the change in the profit before income tax for the
consolidated group would have been an increase /decrease of $316,525 (2020: $203,512). If there was a 10% increase or
decrease in market price of inventory, the net realizable value of inventory on hand would increase/(decrease) by $44,407
(2020: $22,103). As the phosphate-based fertilizer on hand are held at cost there would be no impact on profit or loss.
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the
consolidated entity. The consolidated entity has a strict code of credit, including obtaining agency credit information,
confirming references and setting appropriate credit limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate to
mitigate credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying
amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to
the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral.
The Company has bank deposits with the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and Toronto Dominion Bank which both have a
Standard and Poors short term credit rating of A-1+.
Liquidity risk
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash
equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.
The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by
continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
