3.5M at a stated nil exercise price — nothing is paid to convert these
2 proposed issues (Appendix 3B) also pending — not counted above; the securities each would add are in the calendar below.
Out-of-the-money options are excluded — at today’s price they expire rather than convert. So is condition-triggered supply, which has no expiry and no price, and convertibles that convert on their own terms rather than on a date.

Placement capacity

How much stock a company can place without asking holders. Listing Rule 7.1 allows 15% of ordinary securities in any 12 months, and every Appendix 3B states how much of it an issue uses.

Under 1% of the 15% placement capacity left — about 99% used by Appendix 3B filings in the last 12 months (estimate, as at 2026-09-12). The company has also placed under the additional 10% (Listing Rule 7.1A), which is not counted in this figure. Holder-approved issues and any later ratification are not deducted, so the true headroom can be higher.

What a price move would switch on

No option supply on record carries an exercise price to pay, so no share price switches any of it on. 9.4M of it states a NIL exercise price — nothing is paid to convert that, so it converts at any price. The other 9.0M converts on something else — a hurdle that may never be met, or terms the filing does not price.

“Nil” is a stated nil exercise price: nothing is paid to convert. An em dash means the filing names no exercise price at all. Security is read from the filing’s own class description; an em dash there means the description is not one this table labels. One row is one security class, at the number stated in the most recent quotation application that restated it — linked, and dated, in the last column.
