CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that are not historical facts, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expected and projected. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-Q including, without limitation, statements in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations, events or developments which the Company expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures (including the amount and nature thereof); expansion and growth of the Company’s business and operations; and other such matters are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate under the circumstances. However, whether actual results or developments will conform with the Company’s expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including general economic, market and business conditions; the business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by the Company; changes in laws or regulation; and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of the Company.
These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of predictive, future-tense or forward-looking terminology, such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “may,” “will,” or similar terms. These statements appear in a number of places in this filing and include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company, and its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i) trends affecting the Company’s financial condition or results of operations for its limited history; (ii) the Company’s business and growth strategies; and, (iii) the Company’s financing plans. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors that could adversely affect actual results and performance include, but are not limited to, the Company’s limited operating history, potential fluctuations in quarterly operating results and expenses, government regulation, technological change and competition. For information identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to our filings with the SEC under the Exchange Act and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including our Current Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 16, 2024.
Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by the Company will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequence to or effects on the Company or its business or operations. The Company assumes no obligations to update any such forward-looking statements.

VERDE RESOURCES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2025 AND 2024
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND
Verde Resources, Inc. (“We” or the “Company” or “VRDR”) was incorporated on April 22, 2010, in the State of Nevada, U.S.A..
The Company is a leader in net zero road construction and building materials, driving innovations that enhance sustainability and advance environmental stewardship. By integrating biochar, a highly effective carbon sequester and performance enhancer, the Company facilitates the industry’s seamless transition to zero emissions. This approach reduces greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions, optimizes the use of native soils and recycled materials, speeds installation, and improves efficiency while cutting costs. Since 2021, the Company’s BioFraction™ facility in Borneo has been converting palm waste into biochar and other sustainable byproducts. Operations in Borneo, Malaysia, experienced a temporary slowdown since June 2023 due to the strategic focus on a test track partnership between the Company’s US-based subsidiary, Verde Renewables Inc., and the National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT). This partnership is rigorously testing the Company’s innovative Biochar-Asphalt technology, which is intended to provide superior performance, environmental sustainability, and the generation of Carbon Removal and Avoidance Credits.
In December 2024, Verde Resources, in collaboration with C-Twelve Australia, successfully demonstrated its pioneering Biochar-Asphalt technology at the NCAT Test Track. Key achievements included retrofitting an existing asphalt plant to produce cold-based Biochar-Asphalt in winter conditions without heat, solvents or odors—resulting in a 50% increase in installation efficiency. The demonstration sequestered approximately 8 tons of carbon, with Carbon Removal Credits currently being certified under Puro.earth, marking the world’s first carbon removal credits generated through asphalt production and installation. The “Verde Net Zero Blueprint," a combination of low-carbon technologies and carbon credit generation, represents a breakthrough in sustainable building materials.
In April 2025, Verde achieved what it believes to be an industry first with the issuance and sale of Puro.earth-certified Biochar Carbon Removal Credits from the December NCAT demonstration. We believe these represent the world’s first carbon removal credits generated through asphalt applications and have already been pre-purchased by one of the largest global financial institutions focused on Carbon Dioxide Removals (CDRs). Verde announced this milestone in a press release on April 10th 2025.
On August 8, 2024, one of the world’s largest building materials companies selected Verde Resources to scale its Biochar-Asphalt technology for commercialization. Following successful validation at NCAT, the Company is confident in completing its upcoming pilot project, which is expected to lead to a strategic licensing partnership. Through this collaboration—and with the support of other key partners—Verde’s Biochar-Asphalt is positioned for commercialization across the U.S., unlocking substantial growth potential and supporting credible future revenue projections.
On October 22, 2024, the Company entered into a service agreement with GECA Environment (“GECA”) to provide the Company with strategic support for carbon credit monetization. GECA is an internationally recognized firm, expert in carbon valorization and sequestration. GECA’s unmatched expertise and broad service offerings make it an invaluable partner for businesses and organizations seeking holistic waste valorization solutions. Committed to the global fight against climate change, GECA operates in over 15 countries with a diverse international team. With a proven track record in project development and successful brokerage of biochar-based carbon credits to renowned clients, GECA consistently delivers impactful, high-quality solutions for carbon removal. Under this service agreement, GECA will provide the Company with comprehensive strategic support focused on monetizing carbon attributes, specifically through biochar and carbon removal credits. This partnership aims to maximize the value of the Company's carbon removal initiatives via its Biochar-Asphalt and other net zero construction products while ensuring compliance with carbon market standards. The structure of the strategic advisory, for a duration of six (6) months, is a monthly retainer with a maximum number of hours allocated. The retainer starts at USD $
The Company has undergone a restructuring exercise to shift its focus towards sustainable infrastructure with the world faced with challenges of climate change and environmental dehydration.
The Company has engaged AUM Media Inc ("AUM'), a trusted investor relations firm, to help guide the process and strategically position the Company for long-term success in the capital markets.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has the following subsidiaries:

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
· | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in audited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 which has been derived from audited financial statements and these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary to state fairly the results for the periods presented. The results for the period ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, or for any future period.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2024, filed with the SEC on October 16, 2024.
· | Use of Estimates and Assumptions |
The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the useful lives of plant and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets (including intangible assets), allowance for expected credit losses, revenue recognition, income tax provision, deferred taxes and uncertain tax position.
The inputs into the management’s judgments and estimates consider the geopolitical tension, inflationary and high-interest rate environment and other macroeconomic factors potentially effecting the Company’s critical and significant accounting estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
· | Basis of Consolidation |
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Verde Resources, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation. The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with guidance found in ASC 805, Business Combinations. The guidance requires consideration given, including contingent consideration, assets acquired, and liabilities assumed to be valued at their fair market values at the acquisition date.
· | Segment Reporting |
ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
The Company’s CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company has three reportable business segments.
Sales and operating income as the primary measures of segment profit or loss to assess performance and make resource allocation decisions. The CODM assesses these metrics and compares actuals to budgeted and forecasted values to evaluate segment operating performance and allocate resources to the operating segments. Expenses related to certain centralized administration or executive functions that are not specifically related to an operating segment are included in Corporate Unallocated.
· | Concentrations of Credit Risk |
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. At times, its cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. The Company’s management also assesses the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds or trades with, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.
· | Risks and Uncertainties |
The Company newly operates in the supply of net zero road constructions and building materials, including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with the introduction of a new product offering, including the potential risk of business failure.
· | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash in banks, money market funds, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value. The Company had $
At March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents consisted of petty cash on hand and cash in banks.

· | Deposits with bank |
Deposits held for investments that are not debt securities are included in short-term investments in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Investments in time deposits with original maturities of more than three months but remaining maturities of less than one year are considered short-term investments. Investments held with the intent to reinvest or hold for longer than a year, or with remaining maturities of one year or more, are considered long-term investments.
At March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the interest rates and maturities of deposits with banks are
· | Accounts Receivable |
Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at amortized cost. The Company maintains an allowance for expected credit loss to provide for the estimated number of receivables that will not be collected. The Company considers several factors in its estimate of the allowance, including knowledge of a client’s financial condition, its historical collection experience, and other factors relevant to assessing the collectability of such receivables. Bad debts are written off against allowances. An allowance for doubtful accounts will be recorded in the period when a loss is probable based on an assessment of specific evidence indicating troubled collection, historical experience, accounts aging, ongoing business relation and other factors. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. If accounts receivable are to be provided for, or written off, they would be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations within operating expenses. As of March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the longest credit term for certain customers are
At March 31,2025, and June 30, 2024, the allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable amounted to $
· | Expected Credit Loss |
ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments requires entities to use a current lifetime expected credit loss methodology to measure impairments of certain financial assets. Using this methodology will result in earlier recognition of losses than under the previous incurred loss approach, which requires waiting to recognize a loss until it is probable of having been incurred. There are other provisions within the standard that affect how impairments of other financial assets may be recorded and presented, and that expand disclosures. The Company adopted the new standard effective July 1, 2023, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year and applied to accounts receivable and other financial instruments. The adoption of this guidance did not materially impact the net earning and financial position and has no impact on the cash flows.
· | Inventories |
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value (net realizable value), with cost being determined on a first-in-first-out method. Cost of raw materials include cost of materials and incidental costs in bringing the inventory to its current location. Costs of finished goods, on the other hand include material, labor and overhead costs. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand.
As of March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the write down of inventories amounted to $
· | Property, Plant and Equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
|
| Expected useful life |
|
Land and buildings |
|
| |
Plant and machinery |
|
| |
Office equipment |
|
| |
Computer |
|
| |
Motor vehicles |
|
| |
Furniture and fittings |
|
| |
Renovation |
|
|
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of the assets, are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterment which substantially extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income in other income or expenses.
Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 totaled $
Depreciation expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 were $

· | Intangible assets |
Intangible assets acquired from third parties are measured initially at fair value, and where they have an infinite life, are not amortized. The Company annually evaluates the recoverability of the infinite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. The recoverability of these assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amounts to the future discounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If such a review indicates that the carrying amount of intangible assets is not recoverable, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value.
As of March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the Company did not record an impairment on the intangible assets.
· | Assets held for sale |
The Company classifies assets as held-for-sale (“disposal group”) in the period when all of the relevant criteria to be classified as held for sale are met. These criteria include management’s commitment to sell the disposal group in its present condition and the sale being deemed probable of being completed within one year. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. The fair values of disposal groups are estimated using accepted valuation techniques, including indicative listing prices. The Company considers historical experience, guidance received from third parties, and all information available at the time the estimates are made to derive fair value. Any loss resulting from the measurement is recognized in the period when the criteria held for sale are met. The Company assesses the fair value of a disposal group, less any costs to sell, each reporting period it remains classified as held for sale and reports any subsequent changes as an adjustment to the carrying value of the disposal group, as long as the new carrying value does not exceed the initial carrying value of the disposal group. Assets held-for-sale are not amortized or depreciated.
Impairment loss on assets held for sale for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, were $
· | Impairment of Long-lived Assets |
In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, all long-lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets owned and held by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.
Impairment loss on property, plant and equipment for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, were $
· | Revenue Recognition |
ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC Topic 606”), establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.
The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
· | identify the contract with a customer; |
· | identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
· | determine the transaction price; |
· | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and |
· | recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |
Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contract by transferring the promised product to its customer that obtains control of the product which typically occurs at delivery date at a point in time, and collection is reasonably assured. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. Most of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct. Accordingly, the transaction price is allocated in its entirety to the single performance obligation and recognized upon its fulfilment.
The Company considers customer order confirmations, whether formal or otherwise, to be a contract with the customer. In determining the transaction price, the Company evaluates whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the net consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled.
The Company also follows the guidance provided in ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, for determining whether the Company is the principal or an agent in arrangements with customers that involve another party that contributes to the provision of goods to a customer. In these instances, the Company determines whether it has promised to provide the goods itself (as principal) or to arrange for the specified goods to be provided by another party (as an agent). This determination is a matter of judgment that depends on the facts and circumstances of each arrangement.
The Company derives its revenue from the sale of products and services in its role as a principal.

Rental income
Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease agreement.
· | Cost of revenue |
Cost of revenue consists primarily of the cost of goods sold, which are directly attributable to the sales of products.
· | Leases |
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the discount rate for the lease at the commencement date. The Company uses rate implicit in the lease to determine the present value of future lease payments. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU assets”) assets represent the Company’s right to control the use of an identified asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets are generally recognized based on the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
ROU assets are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment are present. ROU assets from operating and finance leases are subject to the impairment guidance in ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, as ROU assets are long-lived nonfinancial assets.
ROU assets are tested for impairment individually or as part of an asset group if the cash flows related to the ROU asset are not independent from the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. An asset group is the unit of accounting for long-lived assets to be held and used, which represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities.
The Company recognized no impairment of ROU assets as of March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024.
The operating lease is included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as current and non-current liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2025, and June 30, 2024.
Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership to the lessee, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. Substantially all of the risks or benefits of ownership are deemed to have been transferred if any one of the five criteria is met: (i) transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease containing a bargain purchase option, (iii) the lease term exceeding 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased asset, (iv) the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeding 90% of the fair value and v) the underlying asset is of such a specialized nature that it is expected to have no alternative use to the lessor at the end of the lease term. At the inception of a finance lease, we as the lessee records an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life if title does not transfer to us, while the leased asset is depreciated in accordance with our depreciation policy if the title is to eventually transfer to us. The periodic rent payments made during the lease term are allocated between a reduction in the obligation and interest element using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 842.
· | Income Taxes |
The Company adopted the ASC Topic 740, Income tax provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13, which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Under paragraph 740-10-25-13, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Paragraph 740-10-25-13 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of paragraph 740-10-25-13.
The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax assets recorded on its balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.
· | Uncertain Tax Positions |
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to its income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the ASC Topic 740 provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

· | Foreign Currencies Translation |
The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar (“US$”) and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been expressed in United States dollars. The Company’s subsidiaries in Malaysia have functional currency of Malaysian Ringgit (“MYR”), being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.
For reporting purposes, in accordance with ASC Topic 830 “Translation of Financial Statements”, capital accounts of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from MYR at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rate of the respective period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements subsidiaries to the reporting currency are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of changes in stockholder’s equity.
Translation of MYR into U.S. dollars has been made at the following exchange rates for the following periods:-

· | Comprehensive Income |
ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
· | Non-controlling Interest |
The Company accounts for noncontrolling interest in accordance with ASC Topic 810-10-45, which requires the Company to present noncontrolling interests as a separate component of total shareholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the consolidated net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
· | Net Loss per Share |
The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional Common Shares that would have been outstanding if the potential Common Stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional Common Shares were dilutive.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding is equal to basic weighted-average common shares, due to the Company’s net loss position. Hence no common stock equivalents were included in the computation of diluted net loss per shares since such inclusion would have been antidilutive.
· | Stock Based Compensation |
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment arrangements related to the acquisition of goods and services from both nonemployees and employees based on fair values of the shares to be issued estimated at grant date. The stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period.
Fair value is determined based on the estimated market prices of the Company’s Common Stock at the respective issuance date in accordance with ASC 718, taking into consideration the volatility of the market price of the shares, the terms of the instruments and the conditions upon which they were granted.
Share based compensation for nonemployees for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, were $
Share based compensation for employees for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, were $
· | Retirement Plan Costs |
Contributions to retirement plans (which are defined contribution plans) are charged to general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operation as the related employee service are provided.

Table of Contents |
Pursuant to section 850-10-20 the related parties include a) affiliates of the Company; b) entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c) trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and Income-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d) principal owners of the Company; e) management of the Company; f) other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g) other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a) the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b) a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c) the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d) amount due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
· | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company follows the ASC 450-20, Commitments to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.
· | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and has adopted paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
|
|
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
|
|
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, deposits with banks, accounts receivable, prepayments, other receivables and deposits, amounts due from related parties, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other payables, bank loans, amounts due to related parties approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
· | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
During the period ended March 31, 2025, there have been no new, or existing, recently issued accounting pronouncements that are of significance, or potential significance, that impact the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. |

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires the disclosure of additional segment information. The key amendments include annual and interim disclosures of significant expenses and other segment items that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of profit or loss, as well as any other key measure of performance used for segment management decisions. This ASU also requires disclosure of key profitability measures used in assessing performance and how to allocate resources. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard as of July 1, 2024 and this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, financial condition, or disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s income tax information, including jurisdictional information, by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in both the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance is to be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively; this ASU allows for early adoption.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards, which provides illustrative guidance to help entities determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements within the scope of ASC 718. ASU 2024-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and interim periods within those annual periods.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), and in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-01, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date (“ASU 2025-01”). ASU 2024-03 requires additional disclosure of the nature of expenses included in the income statement as well as disclosures about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented in the income statement. ASU 2024-03, as clarified by ASU 2025-01, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Both early adoption and retrospective application are permitted.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-04, "Induced Conversions of Convertible Debt Instruments (Topic 470)", which clarifies the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted.
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and believes the future adoption of any such pronouncements may not be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN ASSUMPTION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Despite the Company having suffered from an accumulated deficit of $
With the successful validation of the Verde Net Zero Blueprint by both the National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) on the technological front and Puro.earth, a renowned carbon removal certification platform, on the Carbon Removal Credit, the Company’s future profitability is contingent upon the successful commercialization of its technologies in the United States. This process is currently underway. Once commercialized domestically, the Company intends to license the Verde Net Zero Blueprint (the “Blueprint”) globally. The Company believes that nations committed to the Paris Climate Agreement will have a strong interest in adopting the Blueprint as part of their efforts to meet Net Zero targets by 2050.
While there can be no guarantee of success, the Company is actively pursuing the strategic plans outlined above and remains confident in its ability to execute on these initiatives.
Although certain risks and uncertainties remain, management believes that its ongoing efforts to commercialize key technologies, secure strategic partnerships, and strengthen its financial position will help address conditions that have previously raised substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 4 – BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION
Currently, the Company operates three business segments for the purpose of assessing performance and making operating decisions, mainly operating in:
(i) | Trading and production of building materials and renewable commodities; |
|
|
(ii) | Holding of real property; and |
|
|
(iii) | Licensing of proprietary pyrolysis technology. |
In the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company operated four business segments including the distribution of THC-free cannabinoid (CBD) products, which had terminated its business following the expiration of its product supply agreement with Decimal Engineered Systems (formerly known as MRX Xtractors, LLC) on July 6, 2024.
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of the Company using information about combined net income from operations. All significant operating decisions are based upon an analysis of the Company as three operating segments, which are the same as its reporting segments.
In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by primary major product line. The table also includes a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue with the reportable segments for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

NOTE 9 –INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The intangible assets comprise (i) a global intellectual property (“IP”) of $
The “Catalytic Biofraction Process” is a slow pyrolysis process using a proprietary catalyst to depolymerize palm biomass wastes (empty fruit bunches or palm kernel shells) in temperature range of 350 degrees Celsius to 500 degrees Celsius to yield commercially valuable bio products: bio-oil, wood vinegar (pyroligneous acid), biochar and bio-syngas. The intellectual property is a second-generation pyrolysis process where non-food feedstock like palm biomass wastes is used as feedstock. Upon fulfilling UN’s (United Nations) ACM 22 protocol as well as LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) requirements, it is anticipated that the by-products from this IP would lead to certification and issuance of Carbon Avoidance Credits as well as Carbon Removal Credits to generate carbon revenue for the Company. During the annual impairment assessment, a quantitative assessment was conducted, which involved estimating the fair value of the asset using the income approach. The results indicated that the carrying amount of the asset was not impaired, and therefore no impairment loss was recognized for the period.
Key assumptions in the quantitative assessment included:
· | Discount Rate: |
|
|
· | Plant daily capacity: The plant daily capacity is 0.8 MT per hour for the existing plant and 2.5 MT per hour for the additional new plants that will be commissioned. |
|
|
· | Additional plants: One new biofraction plant with a 3.0 MT/hour production rate will be added every year from FYE2027 up to FYE 2034. |
|
|
· | Projected Production and Sales: Based on a ten-year forecast. Production and sales volumes are linked to the plants in operation for each year in the forecasted period based on the output yield percentages. |
|
|
· | Inflation: 2% |
The use of the estimates in the quantitative assessment are highly judgmental and actual results may differ significantly from what is currently assessed. Accordingly, fluctuations in any of the key attributes may result in a significant change in the projected cash flows underlying the quantitative assessment, which could have a material impact on the assessed values of the Intangible Asset.

NOTE 15 - LEASES
The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases and determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination generally depends on whether the arrangement conveys the right to control the use of an identified fixed asset explicitly or implicitly for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed if we obtain the rights to direct the use of and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the underlying asset. Some of our leases include both lease and non-lease components which are accounted for as a single lease component as the Company has elected the practical expedient. Some of the operating lease agreements include variable lease costs, primarily taxes, insurance, common area maintenance or increases in rental costs related to inflation. Substantially all of our equipment leases and some of our real estate leases have terms of less than one year and, as such, are accounted for as short-term leases as we have elected the practical expedient.
Operating leases are included in the right-of-use lease assets, and current and non-current lease liabilities on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at each lease’s commencement date based on the present values of its lease payments over its respective lease term. When a borrowing rate is not explicitly available for a lease, the incremental borrowing rate is used based on information available at the lease’s commencement date to determine the present value of its lease payments. Operating lease payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company adopts rates ranging from

(b) Economic and political risk
The Company’s major operations are conducted in U.S.A. and Malaysia. Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in U.S.A. and Malaysia, as well as the general state of U.S.A. and Malaysia’s economy, as well as globally, may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Further, the escalation tensions in the Middle East, including the continuing Russian – Ukraine conflict and in other regions, may impact the global economic situation, which indirectly may impact the Company’s operations.
(c) Exchange rate risk
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady; therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and because of the fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of MYR converted to US$ on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in political and economic environments without notice.
NOTE 20 - PENSION COSTS
The Company is required to make contribution to their employees under a government-mandated defined contribution pension scheme for its eligible full-times employees in Malaysia.

All references in this Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “Verde Resources,” “we,” “us,” or “our” are to Verde Resources, Inc.
Overview
Verde Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “VRDR”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 22, 2010.
The Company conducts its business operations in St. Louis, Missouri, U.S.A., through Verde Renewables, Inc. (“VRI”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Verde Resources, Inc., incorporated in the State of Missouri.
The Company is a leader in net zero road construction and building materials, driving innovations that enhance sustainability and advance environmental stewardship. By integrating biochar, a highly effective carbon sequester and performance enhancer, the Company facilitates the industry’s seamless transition to zero emissions. This approach reduces greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions, optimizes the use of native soils and recycled materials, speeds installation, and improves efficiency while cutting costs. Since 2021, the Company’s BioFraction™ facility in Borneo has been converting palm waste into biochar and other sustainable byproducts. Operations in Borneo, Malaysia, experienced a temporary slowdown since June 2023 due to the strategic focus on a test track partnership between the Company’s US-based subsidiary, Verde Renewables Inc., and the National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT). This partnership is rigorously testing the Company’s innovative Biochar-Asphalt technology, which is intended to provide superior performance, environmental sustainability, and the generation of Carbon Removal and Avoidance Credits.
In December 2024, Verde Resources, in collaboration with C-Twelve Australia, successfully demonstrated its Biochar-Asphalt technology at the NCAT Test Track. The demonstration included retrofitting an asphalt plant to produce cold-based Biochar-Asphalt in winter conditions without heat or solvents, improving installation efficiency by 50%. Approximately 8 tons of carbon were sequestered, with Carbon Removal Credits currently under certification by Puro.earth—the first credits generated through asphalt production.
In April 2025, Verde achieved what it believes to be an industry first with the issuance and sale of Puro.earth-certified Biochar Carbon Removal Credits from the December NCAT demonstration. We believe these represent the world’s first carbon removal credits generated through asphalt applications and have already been pre-purchased by one of the largest global financial institutions focused on Carbon Dioxide Removals (CDRs). Verde announced this milestone in a press release on April 10, 2025.
On August 8, 2024, one of the world’s largest building materials companies selected Verde Resources to scale its Biochar-Asphalt technology for commercialization. Following successful validation at NCAT, the Company is confident in completing its upcoming pilot project, which is expected to lead to a strategic licensing partnership. Through this collaboration—and with the support of other key partners—Verde’s Biochar-Asphalt is positioned for commercialization across the U.S., unlocking substantial growth potential and supporting credible future revenue projections.
Once this potentially groundbreaking, eco-friendly solution is certified at the highest industry standards, the same blueprint will be introduced in Malaysia. Ongoing discussions with PLUS Malaysia, the country’s largest highway operator, signal a growing demand for biochar in the region. This demand, coupled with the certification, should enable the BioFraction™ plant to secure a reliable client, ensuring the resumption of normal operations in Malaysia with the potential for significant scale-up over time.
On October 22, 2024, the Company entered into a service agreement with GECA Environment (“GECA”) to provide the Company with strategic support for carbon credit monetization. GECA is an internationally recognized firm, expert in carbon valorization and sequestration. GECA’s unmatched expertise and broad service offerings make it an invaluable partner for businesses and organizations seeking holistic waste valorization solutions. Committed to the global fight against climate change, GECA operates in over 15 countries with a diverse international team. With a proven track record in project development and successful brokerage of biochar-based carbon credits to renowned clients, GECA consistently delivers impactful, high-quality solutions for carbon removal. Under this service agreement, GECA will provide the Company with comprehensive strategic support focused on monetizing carbon attributes, specifically through biochar and carbon removal credits. This partnership aims to maximize the value of the Company’s carbon removal initiatives via its Biochar-Asphalt and other Net Zero construction products while ensuring compliance with carbon market standards. The structure of the strategic advisory, for a duration of six (6) months, is a monthly retainer with a maximum number of hours allocated. The retainer starts at USD $5,000 per month. GECA will advise the Company of the expected time to conduct any requested task prior to starting. If a task requires it to go beyond the allotted hours, and which are approved by the Company, hourly rates for the executed work as defined in the service agreement will be added accordingly.
The Company has undergone a restructuring exercise to shift its focus towards renewable energy and sustainable development with the world faced with challenges of climate change and environmental dehydration. The Company announced the disposition of the mining business through the sale of the entire issued and paid-up share capital of Champmark Sdn Bhd (“CSB”) on March 13, 2023. The disposition of CSB was completed on April 20, 2023. The Company has also discontinued its distribution of THC-free cannabinoid (CBD) products following the expiration of its supply agreement with MRX Xtractors, LLC on July 6, 2024. In line with this transition, the Company has made a strategic decision to fully divest from the Cannabis and CBD industry, similar to its previous divestment from mining operations in Malaysia, to concentrate solely on advancing its sustainability agenda.
Puro.earth, the crediting platform for durable carbon removal, has officially registered the Company as a Carbon Removal Credit supplier as part of its Accelerate program. This partnership was formalized through a platform agreement signed in April 2023. The Company’s endeavors are poised to unlock revenue opportunities by generating Carbon Removal Credits (CORCs). This critical step incentivizes the broader adoption of climate technologies and enables the Company to supply these credits to companies seeking to offset their carbon footprint in pursuit of net-zero objectives. Simultaneously, this approach creates the potential for an additional and substantial revenue stream for the Company.
Verde Resources has engaged AUM, a trusted investor relations firm, to help guide the process and strategically position the Company for long-term success in the capital markets.

| 13. | In April 2025, Verde achieved what it believes is an industry first with the issuance and sale of Puro.earth-certified Biochar Carbon Removal Credits from the December NCAT demonstration. We believe these represent the world’s first carbon removal credits generated through asphalt applications and have already been pre-purchased by one of the largest global financial institutions focused on Carbon Dioxide Removals (CDRs). Verde announced this milestone in a press release on April 11th 2025. |
By strategically advancing these initiatives, the Company is poised to commercialize and license these sustainable infrastructure solutions, generating new revenue streams through Carbon Removal Credits, and deliver lasting environmental and economic benefits.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). During 2023, the Company undertook tremendous changes and expansion which rendered management to re-consider the availability of more management talents and professional staff to meet the enlargement in operation under the coming acquisition and expansion move. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to us required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In the meantime, management has appointed external consultants to minimize the risk and ascertain compliance with requirements.
As of March 31, 2025, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria established in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), along with applicable SEC guidance. Over the past year, Verde Resources has experienced significant growth and operational transformation, including restructuring efforts and strategic expansion initiatives. These developments prompted a thorough review of our internal control structure to ensure it evolves in step with the complexity and scale of our operations.
This evaluation highlighted opportunities to enhance our internal controls and financial oversight to support the company’s long-term vision. While certain internal controls were determined to be insufficient to fully detect or prevent all instances of non-compliance with U.S. GAAP, proactive steps are being taken to strengthen these systems. As part of this process, management engaged external consultants to support risk mitigation and to ensure we are aligned with best practices and regulatory standards.
Key areas identified for improvement included: (1) the establishment of a fully functioning audit committee; (2) the addition of independent directors to enhance board-level oversight; (3) improved segregation of duties; (4) a more balanced distribution of executive responsibilities; and (5) expansion of our financial reporting team with professionals experienced in U.S. GAAP and SEC compliance. These areas were noted during the internal control review conducted in conjunction with the preparation of the financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2025.
Looking ahead, the company is taking definitive action to address these opportunities and drive meaningful improvements. On May 1, 2025, Verde Resources appointed Sherina Chui as Chief Financial Officer. Sherina brings strong financial leadership and operational discipline, and under her guidance, the company expects to achieve greater efficiency, stronger internal controls, and enhanced compliance with financial reporting obligations.
In parallel, and also effective May 1, 2025, the company appointed Karl Strahl to its Board of Directors. Karl brings valuable governance and industry experience that will be instrumental in strengthening board oversight and supporting the company’s continued growth and accountability.
In addition to expanding our leadership, the Company is reinforcing internal communication protocols and improving the documentation of material contracts and operational decisions. These improvements are being supported by regular consultations with legal counsel to ensure full compliance with SEC disclosure requirements.
Collectively, these enhancements reflect Verde Resources’ ongoing commitment to building a strong, transparent, and resilient organization as we continue to scale and deliver long-term value to our stakeholders.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that occurred in the nine months ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
