Aurora Labs Limited ("A3D" or "the Company") (ASX:A3D), wishes to provide its quarterly report to shareholders and appendix 4C for Q3 FY2022.

Print Demonstration Campaign

Announced during the Quarter, a print campaign to demonstrate system reliability, quality, and repeatability, has been launched and is underway.

ASX CODE: A3D ACN: 601 164 505

The project, overseen by The Barnes Global Advisors (TBGA), is closely linked to the Company's active commercialisation strategy and will demonstrate A3D technology's ability to repeatedly produce printed material that meets draft SAE International aerospace standards AMS7039 and AMS7032.

Upon successful completion, A3D will be one of the first additive equipment companies compliant to print metal parts to the targeted aerospace 3D printing standards once they are approved. Globally, A3D will be the first to achieve this status at 1500W laser power. The work will concurrently generate operational data that is expected to increase the Company's value proposition and significantly enhance prospects for commercial partnership agreements.

With the first builds completed and data collection commenced, the Company looks forward to completing the demonstration campaign in Q4 FY22 and sharing the results with prospective clients, partners and the wider AM community.

Partnerships

A3D is actively engaged with several prospective partners across the advanced manufacturing landscape. The conversations are covered under Non-disclosure Agreements and technical information exchange sessions are underway. Potential partners fall into a range of categories, including Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in the Additive Manufacturing (AM) industry as well as companies capable of producing complex industrial machines with an interest in entering the AM sector.

Commercial Printer Design

During the Quarter, the Company added contract engineering resources to its technical team to progress the design for a commercial printer, combining A3D completed engineering design with details and recommendations from the TBGA technology assessment. The work being performed will confirm the preferred baseline configuration for a commercial printer, identify design requirements and incorporate new data from the Demonstration Campaign.

IP & Data Room

In anticipation of detailed commercial conversations, a digital data room is being established and will continue to be populated with new information. The recently announced Demonstration Print Campaign will provide prospective partners with additional data to complement A3D's existing Intellectual Property, for conducting due diligence investigations.

Printing Services

The team is concurrently developing industrial print services, with serial production opportunities identified. Initial prints for a new project with a large resource client have been completed in carbon Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) in A3D's newly installed and commissioned high temperature plastic printer, acquired to meet plastic printing demand from industrial customers. Several groups have visited A3D to learn more about the Company's industrial printing capabilities in various metal alloys and high-performance plastics. We look forward to updating the market on these opportunities as they develop.

Finance and Cash Position

There were no related party payments for the period other than the director fees paid from the approved pool of fees as approved by shareholders of $70,000.

As at 31 March 2022, the Company's cash at bank and on deposit was approximately $2.95 million.

Covid-19

As the Covid-19 situation in Western Australia develops, A3D remains committed to safety as its priority. The Company's pandemic policies echo Government advice and are updated regularly to adhere to new mandates and changing requirements.

Ends

Approved for release by the Company's Board of Directors.
