10.Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities consist of cash, receivables, long-term investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. A fair value hierarchy is used to determine the financial instruments’ fair value that are recorded on the consolidated statements of financial position.

The fair value hierarchy has three levels:

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly for similar items in active markets. The Company maximizes the use of observable market data and relies on entity-specific estimates at least possible; and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 for the period ended December 31, 2023 and the year ended June 30, 2023.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy:

December 31, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA	$	—	$	—	$	3,312	$	3,312

June 30, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA	$	—	$	—	$	3,314	$	3,314

The Company’s Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and in response to the Company’s activities. Management regularly monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.

The Company is exposed to various risks such as interest rate, credit, and liquidity risk. To manage these risks, management determines what activities must be undertaken to minimize potential exposure to risks. The objectives of the Company in managing risk are as follows:

● maintaining sound financial condition;

● financing operations; and

● ensuring liquidity to all operations.

10. Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management - continued

In order to satisfy these objectives, the Company has adopted the following policies:

(i) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss if counterparties do not fulfill their contractual obligations and arises principally from cash deposits. The maximum credit risk is the total of our cash. The Company maintains substantially all of its cash with two major financial institutions. The majority of cash held with these institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

(ii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due.  The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital (current assets less current liabilities) to try to ensure its expenditures will not exceed available resources. At December 31, 2023, the Company has working capital of $5,668 (June 30, 2023: working capital balance of $48,800). The Company is actively engaged in raising additional capital to fund its capital projects and meet financial obligations.

(iii) Foreign exchange risk

Currency risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings that arises from fluctuations of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.  The Company is exposed to currency risk through the following assets and liabilities denominated in US dollars:

	December 31, 2023	June 30, 2023
	$	$
Cash	5,434	42,745
Accounts payable	(2,271)	(5,926)

At December 31, 2023, US Dollar amounts were converted at a rate of USD 1.00 to CAD 1.325. A 10% increase or decrease in the US dollar relative to the Canadian dollar would result in a change of approximately $316 (June 30, 2023: $3,682) in the Company’s comprehensive loss for the year to date.

11. Contingencies

On January 27, 2022, a putative securities class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, Robert Mintak and Kara Norman in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned Gloster v. Standard Lithium Ltd., et al., 22-cv-0507 (E.D.N.Y.) (the “Action”). The complaint purports to seek relief on behalf of a class of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s publicly traded securities between May 19, 2020 and November 17, 2021, and asserts violations of Section 10(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) against all defendants and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individually-named defendants. On April 27, 2022, the court granted Curtis T. Arata’s motion for appointment as lead plaintiff in the Action. Lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on June 29, 2022, adding Andrew Robinson as a defendant and extending the class period to February 3, 2022. The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that during the proposed class period, defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose certain facts regarding the Company’s LiSTR DLE technology and “final product lithium recovery percentage” at its DLE Demonstration Plant in southern Arkansas. The amended complaint seeks various forms of relief, including monetary damages in an unspecified amount. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on August 10, 2022, which became fully briefed on September 28, 2022. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the Action. As at December 31, 2023, the Company has not recorded any provision associated with this matter, as the outcome is undeterminable at this time.

12. Subsequent Event

Subsequent to December 31, 2023, the Company issued 3,218,200 common shares for proceeds of $7,157 net of transaction costs of $296 under the Company’s ATM offering.

Accordingly, the Company’s disclosure of mineralization and other technical information may differ significantly from the information that would be disclosed had the Company prepared the information under the standards adopted under the SEC Modernization Rules.

SUMMARY OF STANDARD LITHIUM’S BUSINESS

Standard Lithium is a leading near-commercial lithium company focused on the sustainable development of a portfolio of lithium-brine bearing properties in the United States. The Company prioritizes brine projects characterized by high-grade resources, robust infrastructure, skilled labor, and streamlined permitting. The Company aims to achieve sustainable, commercial-scale lithium production via the application of a scalable and fully integrated Direct Lithium Extraction (“DLE”) and purification process. Recognized as a critical mineral, lithium holds strategic importance for the rapidly expanding sectors of electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, further influencing the broader economy and national security.

The Company’s flagship projects, the South West Arkansas Project (as defined below) and the Lanxess Project (as defined below), are located on the Smackover Formation in southern Arkansas near the Louisiana Stateline, a region with a long-standing and established industry of mineral extraction from brine.

The Company considers the South West Arkansas Project and the Lanxess Project to be separate and independent projects, as they are not contiguous or located within immediate proximity of each other, do not share common ownership of underlying brine rights, and are unlikely to be developed using common infrastructure or financing. The resource development project in southwest Arkansas (the “South West Arkansas Project”), encompassing a significant land area of over 27,000 acres, is a key project in our portfolio due to its scale and the quality of its lithium-brine resources. The Company completed a Preliminary Feasibility Study (“PFS”) in the third quarter of 2023 for the South West Arkansas Project. A Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") is currently targeted to be completed in 2024 following completion of which, construction is targeted to begin in 2025 and first production is expected in 2027, subject to continued project definition, due diligence, available financing and positive DFS results.

The Lanxess Project encompasses a suite of contemplated staged expansion projects related to the South, Central, and West Brine Production Units operated by LANXESS Corporation (“LANXESS”) in Arkansas. These three brownfield brine processing facilities collectively cover a vast 150,000 acres of unitized leases in southern Arkansas (the “Lanxess Project”). The most advanced initiative within the Lanxess Project is Phase 1A, where we plan to establish our first commercial lithium extraction plant. The Company has been successfully operating an industrial-scale DLE demonstration plant (the “Demonstration Plant”) at the Phase 1A location for over three years. The Demonstration Plant serves as a testing and optimization facility, refining the commercial blueprint for scalable and replicable DLE processes. In Q4 of 2023, the Company completed a DFS for Phase 1A, which is planned to be situated at the LANXESS South Plant. This innovative project, utilizing DLE technology to extract lithium from an existing brine pipeline system, aims to produce battery-quality lithium carbonate. The Company is advancing toward a Final Investment Decision (the “FID”) for Phase 1A, with the

4

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

timing contingent upon ongoing project definition, the finalization of commercial agreements with LANXESS, and the completion of project financing initiatives. A positive FID will set the stage for initial production, which is currently targeted for 2026.

Additionally, the Company has identified and begun extensive leasing for prospective lithium brine areas within the Smackover Formation in East Texas. Our interests also extend to certain mineral leases in the Mojave Desert, San Bernardino County, California, as part of our strategy to broaden our resource base.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Standard Lithium currently has the following material projects:

LANXESS PROJECT

In accordance with the amended and restated memorandum of understanding (the “MOU") dated February 23, 2022, Standard Lithium has established a framework for cooperation with LANXESS. This MOU, which replaces previous agreements from May 4, 2018 (the “Lanxess MOU”), and the joint venture term sheet from November 9, 2018, sets out the terms for advancing the Phase 1A Project, located within the LANXESS South Facility. The structured collaboration with LANXESS will result in definitive commercial agreements that include the supply and management of brine resources, leasing of the commercial production site facilities for the development of the first commercial lithium project in Arkansas to be constructed at the Lanxess Project (the “Phase 1A Project”), and provision of certain infrastructure services by LANXESS. These negotiations are expected to formalize the operational framework for the Phase 1A Project. Standard Lithium will retain ownership and control over the marketing of the lithium carbonate produced from the Phase 1A Project. The Company has the discretion to pursue additional strategic partnerships at the project level to support the project's development and enhance its economic potential.

The strategy for the Phase 1A Project leverages the established infrastructure and the current permitting framework at the LANXESS South Facility, which will enable an effective scale-up of the Company's DLE process. This phase aims to validate the commercial viability of the DLE technology, with plans to replicate this process across Standard Lithium's Smackover Formation assets in a manner consistent with the Company's operational objectives and financial considerations.

Lanxess Project Background & Outlook

South Arkansas has a longstanding and established industry of mineral extraction from brine, with activities beginning in the 1950s. The Smackover Formation, a limestone aquifer stretching approximately 1,000 kilometers from central Texas to Florida, has been central to oil and gas production for over a century. Due to its high porosity and permeability, this formation is particularly suited for extensive brine pumping, processing, and reinjection. While the primary mineral historically extracted from this brine has been bromine, the resource is also rich in lithium.

With headquarters in Cologne, Germany, LANXESS maintains the most substantial brine extraction and processing operations in south Arkansas. This operation includes three distinct facilities: the South, West, and Central plants, each equipped with its brine supply, disposal system, and bromine processing facilities.

In 2018, Standard Lithium and LANXESS signed the Lanxess MOU to test and prove the commercial viability of extracting lithium from brine (“tail-brine”) at LANXESS’ bromine extraction operation (see AIF for more information about the Lanxess Project information including history, ownership, geology and mineralization). The Lanxess MOU has since been replaced by the MOU.

The Demonstration Plant, which is the first-of-its-kind in the world, utilizes, among other technologies, the Company’s proprietary DLE process to extract lithium from LANXESS’ post bromine extraction tail-brine.

This Demonstration Plant serves as a testing and optimization facility, refining the commercial blueprint for scalable and replicable DLE processes. The focus is on extracting lithium from LANXESS’ post bromine extraction tail-brine, yielding a high-purity lithium chloride (LiCl). This LiCl can then undergo further refinement into battery-quality lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide. The highly automated three-story Demonstration Plant is complemented by adjacent separate buildings housing the control room, office, and an analytical laboratory, ensuring precise and monitored lithium extraction processes. The resulting high-purity lithium chloride is typically managed in the following ways: sample volumes of the LiCl material are either sent for analysis, or when applicable, they are sent off-site for further conversion into battery-quality lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide. In the majority of cases, the material is returned, along with spent brine, for re-injection The Company entered into the MOU with LANXESS to streamline and expedite the development of Phase 1A Project the first commercial lithium project in Arkansas to be constructed at the Lanxess Project. The overall objective is to produce battery-grade lithium carbonate from all three of the LANXESS facilities starting with the Lanxess South Plant. Each facility will have its own primary plant that will produce purified and concentrated lithium chloride solutions. These solutions will be conveyed, via pipelines, to one location (the Central Plant) for further processing to the final product – lithium carbonate.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

On October 27, 2022, the Company successfully commissioned a first-of-its-kind chloride-to-hydroxide conversion pilot plant. The plant was installed at the Lanxess Project and operates as a self-contained unit taking the lithium chloride feed produced by the existing Demonstration Plant and converting this feed directly into a lithium hydroxide solution using a novel ion-exchange process.

On December 6, 2022, the Company completed all of the necessary agreements with LANXESS to secure access to the proposed commercial plant site at the Lanxess Project and to conduct all required fieldwork to support the Lanxess DFS.

On December 1, 2023, Lanxess announced their intention to act as a brine supplier for the Phase 1A Project, allowing the Company further optionality to seek project level equity investments and offtake arrangements.

Strong Partnerships Key to Success

The partnership between Standard Lithium and LANXESS allows the Company to demonstrate the commercial viability of the Lanxess Project and the DLE process. By connecting to LANXESS’ existing permitted operations, the Company is saving both significant time and infrastructure costs.

On December 1, 2021, the Company closed the direct private placement by Koch Strategic Platforms, a subsidiary of Koch Investments Group, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $127,070 (approximately US$100,000). This investment has supported and continues to support the Company’s efforts to:

● Rapidly advance the first commercial DLE project in North America at the Lanxess Project;

● Accelerate and expand the development of the Company’s South West Arkansas Project;

● Continue to develop and commercialize modern lithium extraction and processing technologies, and work collaboratively with KES businesses; and

● Allow for strategic project expansion.

Expenditures and Operating Costs

Expenditures for the Demonstration Plant consist of operating costs for the Demonstration Plant which for the three months ended December 31, 2023 were $1,819 (December 31, 2022 - $3,099) and the six months ended December 31, 2023, were $5,202 (December 31, 2022 - $5,975). The decrease in the Company’s operating costs for the Demonstration Plant for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2023, was predominantly due to a decrease in supplies, personnel and reagents. The supplies costs decreased due to no major construction conducted in Q2-2024 compared to Q2-2023. The reagent costs were lower as the Company stopped running LiSTR and moved to Lithium Selective Sorption (“LSS”). The personnel costs decreased during Q2-2024 as all the plant employees transitioned to employees of the Company. See Overall Performance section for more details.

South West Arkansas Project Background & Outlook

The South West Arkansas Project is approximately 40 km from the Lanxess Project and shares the same long history of oil and gas drilling and nearby brine extraction. There are 424 exploration and production wells greater than 2,234 m depth (7,000 ft) in or immediately adjacent to the South West Arkansas Project. A portion of these wells have available petro-physical logs of the Smackover Formation brine-bearing zone. Around 38 additional wells have core reports with porosity and permeability data.

In August 2018, the Company announced the analysis of four brine samples recovered from two existing wells in the South West Arkansas Project area. These samples reported lithium concentrations ranging between 347 to 461 mg/L, with an average of 450 mg/L in one of the wells, and 350 mg/L in the other – all higher grades than that of the Lanxess Project.

On May 2, 2022, the Company announced the commencement of a PFS at the South West Arkansas Project, and on August 8, 2023, the Company announced positive results of the South West Arkansas PFS, including an upgraded mineral resource for a portion of the project. The Company intends on expending funds during the upcoming year to advance the South West Arkansas Project, including advancing a DFS.

The Company has filed three NI 43-101 technical reports for the South West Arkansas Project:

● In March 2019, the first mineral resource estimate was filed and comprised an inferred mineral resource estimate for lithium contained in brine.

● In November 2021, the Company filed a PEA, which comprised an updated inferred mineral resource estimate for a unitized property, as well as a PEA for the proposed commercial plant at the property.

● In September 2023, the Company filed the South West Arkansas PFS which comprised an upgraded indicated mineral resource estimate for a portion of the property.

Expenditures

Expenditures for the South West Arkansas Project consist of exploration and evaluation costs which for the three months ended December 31, 2023 were $2,756 (December 31, 2022 - $1,401) and the six months ended December 31, 2023, were $5,652 (December 31, 2022 - $3,533). The increase in the exploration and development costs for the South West Arkansas Project for the three months and the six months ended December 31, 2023 was primarily due to exploration activity initiated by the Company and a drilling program to support its PFS during these periods.

OTHER PROJECTS

The Company has also identified a number of highly prospective lithium brine project areas in the Smackover Formation in East Texas and began an extensive mineral leasing program to lease brine rights in the key project areas. The Company has completed an initial drilling and sampling program across these new project areas for the purposes of assessing viability for project expansion and future development, with positive results. See press release dated October 25, 2023 for more information. In addition, the Company has an interest in certain mineral leases located in the Mojave Desert in San Bernardino County, California.

ENVIRONMENTAL

Standard Lithium is firmly committed to the responsible production of sustainable lithium chemicals, essential for the progression toward a lower carbon economy. Our project selection process underscores this dedication, opting, where feasible, to use existing infrastructure, roads, rail, water, and power within well-established industrial areas with a history of timber harvesting, oil, gas, and brine industries. Implementing DLE technology is aimed at ensuring an environmentally responsible approach, offering a reduced footprint and environmental impact when compared to traditional evaporation pond methods and hard-rock lithium mining operations.

Beyond our main operations, our environmental ethos is also evident. In September 2021, our collaboration with Aqualung Carbon Capture AS (“Aqualung”) marked a significant step in advancing carbon capture technology. This partnership solidified in May 2022 when we made an investment in Aqualung. This was followed by a master service agreement (the “MSA”) with Telescope Innovations Corp. (“Telescope”), signaling our intent to further investigate the possible applications of captured CO2 in various chemical processes, emphasizing our forward-thinking approach to environmental sustainability.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS

The Company continuously seeks to forge robust relationships with all stakeholders, recognizing the crucial role of community involvement and mutual benefit. As we advance both the Lanxess Project and the South West Arkansas Project, community engagement remains paramount. Over the past year, we have proudly sponsored an array of community events, such as the El Dorado MusicFest, Holiday Lighting Ceremony, Independence Day Celebration, and the Mayhaw Festival. Moreover, in May 2022, in collaboration with Entergy, Adopt-a-Charger, and South Arkansas Community College, we facilitated the installation of six Level 2 – 240-volt EVCS charging stations in downtown El Dorado, Arkansas, free for public use.

South Arkansas is home to invaluable industry expertise, especially in the domain of brine extraction. Recognizing this, we’ve collaborated with institutions like the South Arkansas Community College in El Dorado to augment training programs. Such partnerships enrich the local workforce, readying them for industry-specific roles. The majority of our diverse team, spanning from engineers to administrative staff, are local residents, underscoring our commitment to community engagement and development.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

Revenue

As at December 31, 2023, the Company has not generated revenue.

Operating loss

The Company incurred an operating loss of $10,197 for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and $19,931 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $6,880 for the three months ended and $8,439 for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The increase in operating loss relates to costs in share-based payments, management fees, salaries and benefits, consulting fees and office and administration fees.

General and administrative

General and administrative costs (“G&A”) are associated with the Company’s Vancouver, BC corporate head office, the El Dorado office in Arkansas and related professional and corporate costs.

The G&A costs were $1,073 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, and $2,158 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to $700 for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and $1,639 for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The year-to-date increase is mainly due to higher insurance costs, information technology costs, the Vancouver head office lease, and costs associated with the growth of the El Dorado office in Arkansas as we continue to further expand our back office operations to support potential near term commercial production.

Demonstration Plant operations (formerly Pilot Plant operations)

Demonstration Plant operating costs relate to personnel, supplies, reagents, site office, utilities, repairs and maintenance, vehicle, waste and disposal recycling fees, and ongoing testing of the production end product. The overall costs decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2023, by $1,280 or 70.4% to $1,819 from $3,099 three months December 31, 2022, and the six months ended December 31, 2023, by $773 or 14.9% to $5,202 from $5,975 for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The main reasons are as follows: 1) there was no major construction conducted in Q2-2024 compared to Q2-2023 when the Company was building LSS columns and reconfiguring the plant; 2) The reagent costs were lower as the Company stopped running LiSTR and moved to LSS; and 3) the personnel costs decreased during Q2-2024 as all the plant employees were hired directly by the Company which reduced the billable rates paid to the intermediary companies.

Foreign exchange gain

The Company recorded a foreign exchange loss of $45 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to a foreign exchange loss of $1,266 for three months ended December 31, 2022, and a foreign exchange gain of $560 for the six months ended December 31, 2023, as compared to a foreign exchange gain of $5,229 for the six months ended December 31, 2022. The United States Dollar (“USD”) spot rate strengthened by 3.54% quarter over quarter. A stronger USD created a foreign exchange gain on the Company’s income statement due to significant cash on hand, held in USD. The decrease in the amount of the gain is due to less USD held at December 31, 2023.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022:

The Company incurred a net loss of $10,197 for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 (“Q2-2024”) compared to a net loss of $6,880 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 (“Q2-2023”). The primary reason for the increase in loss was related to increase in share-based payments, professional fees, office and administration fees, management fees, salaries and benefits, travel and filing and regulatory fees as compared to the same period last year. Management fees incurred during Q2-2024 of $733 were higher than fees incurred during Q2-2023 mainly due to the addition of two directors and an appointment of new CFO. Consulting fees decreased to

18

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

$762 during Q2-2024 as compared to $1,068 in Q2-2023 as the Company engaged with less strategic advisors and lobbyists during Q2-2024. Filing and transfer agent fees of $107 were higher than fees of $50 during Q2-2023. This increase is related to higher SEDAR filing fees and regulatory fees incurred during Q2-2024. Office and administration costs of $1,073 were higher than the costs of $700 incurred during the comparative quarter due to higher costs of insurance, information technology and the growth of the EL Dorado office in Arkansas. Costs related to investor relations for Q2-2024 amounted to $98, an increase from the $86 recorded during Q2-2023. This rise in expenditures can be attributed to several factors: the current inflationary environment, our expanding participation in industry events to refine the Company’s narrative, enhanced investor engagement activities, and the associated costs of these broader endeavors. Travel costs of $293 incurred during Q2-2024 was higher than costs of $113 incurred during Q2-2023 due to more frequent travel of management and consultants to the Company’s project sites in Arkansas and Texas. The share-based payment during the period was $3,617 as compared to $301 recognized in Q2-2023. The increase was related to the issuance of stock options to an advisor, employees, and a consultant of the Company, and also the issuance of deferred share units to the directors and management of the Company. They will be fully vested by December 2026. The Company incurred $221 of costs related to patent applications as compared to $224 of costs incurred during Q2-2023. The decrease in fees relates to less application fees incurred as the Company’s three U.S. patents were approved during fiscal year 2023. Demonstration Plant operating costs incurred during Q2-2024 of $1,819 was lower than the costs incurred of $3,099 during Q2-2023. The decrease mainly relates to decrease in supplies, personnel, and reagents costs (see page 17, Overall Performance section for more details). The project investigation costs of $68 in Q2-2024 were much lower as compared to $193 of costs incurred during Q2-2023. The primary reason for the decrease in costs relates to the Company commencing the capitalisation of the Texas Projects to Exploration and Evaluation Assets during the fiscal year 2023. The salaries and wages commenced in January 2023 and $666 was recognised during Q2-2024 (Q2-2023 $Nil). Prior to 2023, all positions were engaged as consultants.

Six months ended December 31, 2023 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2022:

The Company incurred a net loss of $19,931, for the six months ended December 31, 2023 (“YTD-2024”) compared to a net loss of $8,439 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 (“YTD-2023”). The primary reason for the increase in loss was related to increase in share-based payments, management fees, salaries and benefits, consulting fees, and office and administration fees as compared to the same period last year. Management fees incurred during YTD-2024 of $1,326 were higher than fees incurred during YTD-2023 mainly due to the addition of two directors. Consulting fees increased to $1,913 during YTD-2024 as compared to $1,569 in YTD-2023 as a result additional engagement of consultants to support and advance the Company in the next stage of development, the addition of strategic advisors and the engagement of lobbyists to pursue opportunities for federal grants and critical mineral policy programs. Filing and transfer agent fees of $248 were higher than fees of $198 during YTD-2023. This increase is related to SEDAR+ filing and regulatory fees incurred during YTD-2024. Office and administration costs of $2,158 were higher than the costs of $1,639 incurred during the comparative quarter due to higher costs of insurance, information technology and the growth of the EL Dorado office in Arkansas. Costs related to investor relations for YTD-2024 amounted to $172, an increase from the $154 recorded during YTD-2023. This rise in expenditures can be attributed to several factors: the current inflationary environment, our expanding participation in industry events to refine the Company's narrative, enhanced investor engagement activities, and the associated costs of these broader endeavors. Travel costs of $417 incurred during YTD-2024 was higher than costs of $160 incurred during YTD-2023 due to more frequent travel of management and consultants to the Company’s project sites in Arkansas and Texas. The share-based payment during the period was $6,357 as compared to $1,092 recognized in YTD-2023. They will be fully vested by December 2026. The increase was related to the issuance of stock options to an advisor, employees, and a consultant of the Company, and also the issuance of deferred share units to the directors and management of the Company. The Company incurred $425 of costs related to patent applications as compared to $468 of costs incurred during YTD-2023. The decrease in fees relates to less application fees incurred as the Company’s three U.S. patents were approved during fiscal year 2023. Demonstration Plant operating costs incurred during YTD-2024 of $5,202 was lower than the costs incurred of $5,975 during YTD-2023 mainly due to decrease in supplies, personnel, reagents and utilities costs (see pager 17, Overall Performance section for more details). The project investigation costs of $143 in YTD-2024 were much lower as compared to $1,138 of costs incurred during YTD-2023. The primary reason for the decrease in costs relates to the Company commencing the capitalisation of the Texas projects to Exploration and Evaluation Assets during the fiscal year 2023. The salaries and wages commenced in January 2023 and $1,154 was recognised during YTD-2024 (YTD-2023 $Nil). Prior to 2023, all positions were engaged as consultants.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company does not have a mineral property in production and consequently does not receive revenue from the sale of lithium-based products. The Company currently has no operations that generate cash flow. The Company has financed its operations primarily through the issuance of shares. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to complete sufficient equity, debt or other financings or generate cash flow from operations in the future.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company had working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $5,668 compared to a working capital of $48,800 as of June 30, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2023 totaled $15,831 compared to $59,612 at June 30, 2023. During the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company had a net cash outflow of $43,781. Working capital decreased in the current period compared to the year ended June 30, 2023 mostly due to expenditures on the development of the Company’s projects.

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued 100,000 Shares for the exercise of stock options. The Company received proceeds of $140 and reclassified $126 from reserves to Share capital upon exercise.

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued a total of 100,100 Shares on the TSX Venture Exchange at an average price of C$3.06 per share and 1,326,259 Shares on the NYSE American LLC at an average price of US$2.16 under the ATM program, providing gross proceeds of C$306 and US$3,302, respectively.

Contractual Obligations

Contractual Obligations	Payments due by Periods
	Total		Less than 1 year		1 – 3 years		4 – 5 years		After 5 years
Obligations Under Office and Storage Leases	$	989	$	381	$	608	$	Nil	$	Nil
Other Obligations	$	20,832	$	1,709	$	10,097	$	3,419	$	5,607
Total Contractual Obligations	$	21,821	$	2,090	$	10,705	$	3,419	$	5,607

Management has determined that the cash resources will be sufficient to continue operations through Q2-2025 and additional funding will be required to sustain the Company’s ongoing operations. As a result, the Company will continue to attempt to raise funds through equity or debt financing to meet its on-going obligations. There can be no certainty that such additional funds may be raised on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to the Company when required.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Except as disclosed, the Company does not know of any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, its liquidity and capital resources either materially increasing or decreasing at present or in the foreseeable future. The Company does not engage in currency hedging to offset any risk of currency fluctuations.

South West Arkansas Land Purchase

In August 2023, the Company’s subsidiary purchased 118 acres of land in Arkansas for the South West Arkansas Project, at a cost of US$692. The land is located in Lafayette County, adjacent to State Highway 29, and has previously been used for timber harvesting operations. The use of the land as a potential location for a brine processing facility will be considered in the next phases of definition (DFS) for the South West Arkansas Project.

LITIGATION MATTERS

On January 27, 2022, a putative securities class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, Robert Mintak and Kara Norman in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned Gloster v. Standard Lithium Ltd., et al., 22-cv-0507 (E.D.N.Y.) (the “Action”). The complaint purports to seek relief on behalf of a class of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s publicly traded securities between May 19, 2020, and November 17, 2021, and asserts violations of Section 10(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) against all defendants and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individually-named defendants. On April 27, 2022, the court granted Curtis T. Arata’s motion for appointment as lead plaintiff in the Action. Lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on June 29, 2022, adding Andrew Robinson as a defendant and extending the class period to February 3, 2022. The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that during the proposed class period, defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose certain facts regarding the Company’s LiSTR DLE technology and “final product lithium recovery percentage” at its DLE Demonstration Plant in southern Arkansas. The amended complaint seeks various forms of relief, including monetary damages in an unspecified amount. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on August 10, 2022, which became fully briefed on September 28, 2022. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the Action. As at December 31, 2023, the Company has not recorded a provision associated with this matter, as the outcome is undeterminable at this time.

[1] Options expired on September 4, 2023, however, due to black-out of insider share transactions, these options will remain eligible for exercise for a period of 10 business days subsequent to the lifting of the black-out.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and judgements are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant accounting judgments that management has made in the process of applying accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

23

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Impairment indicators

The Company evaluates each long-term asset at each reporting period to determine if there are any indications of impairment in accordance with IFRS 6 – Exploration for and evaluation of mineral properties. If any such indications exist, an estimate of the recoverable amount is performed, and an impairment loss is recognised to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. Management’s judgment in evaluating potential impairment indicators includes whether:

● the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the period or will expire in the near future and is not expected to be renewed,

● substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of (“E&E”) mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned,

● there has been no discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the Company has decided to discontinue such activities in the specific area; and

● sufficient data exist to indicate that, although a development in the specific area is likely to proceed, the carrying amount of the asset is unlikely to be fully recovered.

As at December 31, 2023, the Company has assessed its E&E assets and there were no indications of impairment.

The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the amounts recognised in the financial statements are as follows:

Valuation of investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA

The Company holds an investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA, a private company, which is measured at fair value through profit and loss.

Company‐specific information is considered when determining whether the fair value of the investment should be adjusted upward or downward at the end of each reporting period. In addition to company‐specific information, the Company takes into account trends in general market conditions and the Share performance of comparable publicly‐traded companies when valuing privately‐held investments.

The determinations of fair value of the Company’s investment at other than initial cost are subject to certain limitations. Financial information for the privately‐held investment may not be available and, even if available, that information may be limited and/or unreliable. Use of the valuation approach described above may involve uncertainties and determinations based on the Company’s judgment and any value estimated from these techniques may not be recognised or realisable.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities consist of cash, receivables, long-term investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.  A fair value hierarchy is used to determine the financial instruments’ fair value that are recorded on the consolidated statements of financial position.

The fair value hierarchy has three levels

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

24

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly for similar items in active markets. The Company maximizes the use of observable market data and relies on entity-specific estimates at least possible; and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 for the six months ended December 31, 2023 and the year ended June 30, 2023.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy:

December 31, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA	$	—	$	—	$	3,312	$	3,312
June 30, 2023	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA	$	—	$	—	$	3,314	$	3,314

The Company’s board of directors has the overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and in response to the Company’s activities. Management regularly monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.

In the normal course of operations, the Company is exposed to various risks such as commodity, interest rate, credit and liquidity risk. To manage these risks, management determines what activities must be undertaken to minimize potential exposure to risks. The objectives of the Company in managing risk are as follows:

● maintaining sound financial condition;

● financing operations; and

● ensuring liquidity to all operations.

In order to satisfy these objectives, the Company has adopted the following policies:

● recognize and observe the extent of operating risk within the business; and

● identify the magnitude of the impact of market risk factors on the overall risk of the business and take advantage of natural risk reductions that arise from these relationships.

(i) Interest rate risk

The Company does not have any financial instruments which are subject to interest rate risk.

(ii) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss if counterparties do not fulfill their contractual obligations and arises principally from cash deposits. The maximum credit risk is the total of our cash. The Company maintains substantially all its cash with two major financial institutions. The majority of cash held with these institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

25

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

(iii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital to ensure its expenditures will not exceed available resources. As at December 31, 2023, the Company has working capital of $5,668 (June 30, 2023: working capital balance of $48,800). The Company is actively engaged in raising additional capital to fund its capital projects and meet financial obligations.

(iv) Foreign Exchange Risk

Currency risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings that arises from fluctuations of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. The Company is exposed to currency risk through the following assets and liabilities denominated in US dollars:

	December 31, 2023	June 30, 2023
	$	$
Cash	5,434	42,745
Accounts payable	(2,271)	(5,926)

At December 31, 2023, US Dollar amounts were converted at a rate of USD 1.00 to CAD 1.325. A 10% increase or decrease in the US Dollar relative to the Canadian Dollar would result in a change of approximately $316 (June 30, 2023: $3,682) in the Company’s comprehensive loss for the year.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information is gathered and reported to management, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions about public disclosure.

As described below, in our assessment of the effectiveness of our Company’s internal control over financial reporting as at June 30, 2023, material weaknesses were identified. As a result of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management believes the financial statements fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting as such term is defined in the rules of the National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings in Canada and Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act in the United States. The Company’s internal controls over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

An evaluation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting at June 30, 2023 was conducted based on the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission’s Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). This evaluation identified

26

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

material weaknesses in both the design and operational effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Specifically, the Company identified a material weakness due to a need for additional personnel with accounting expertise to improve the timeliness and accuracy of financial disclosures, as well as to maintain appropriate segregation of duties and system user access controls. These areas for improvement also pointed to a material weakness in the Company’s formal accounting policies, procedures, and controls related to financial accounting, reporting, and disclosures to achieve complete and accurate financial reporting.

Until they are remediated, the material weaknesses could result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. To address these material weaknesses in future periods, management has developed a remediation plan aimed at enhancing internal controls over financial reporting. This plan includes: (i) the recruitment of additional accounting and finance personnel to improve the overall effectiveness of the financial reporting process; (ii) the revision and implementation of controls concerning journal entry review, user access rights, and segregation of duties; and (iii) the formalization and documentation of accounting policies and internal controls. These improvements are targeted for completion in the upcoming fiscal year and will require additional financial resources.

The Company has begun taking steps to remedy the identified material weaknesses. On October 1, 2023, the Company took a significant step forward in its commitment to enhance internal controls by appointing Salah Gamoudi as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Gamoudi’s extensive expertise in financial management is a key part of the strategy to address the previously noted deficiencies. Concurrently, Kara Norman has transitioned from the role of CFO to become the Chief Accounting Officer of the Company, a move that is expected to strengthen the financial reporting process further by dedicating her skill set to the core aspects of financial accounting and control.

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

LIMITATION OF CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed and operated, have their inherent limitations. Due to those limitations (resulting from unrealistic or unsuitable objectives, human judgment in decision making, human errors, management overriding internal control, circumventing controls by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, external events beyond the entity’s control), internal control can only provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

RISK FACTORS

There are a number of risks that may have a material and adverse impact on the future operating and financial performance of the Company and could cause the Company’s operating and financial performance to differ materially from the estimates described in forward-looking statements relating to the Company. These include widespread risks associated with any form of business and specific risks associated with the Company’s business and its involvement in the lithium exploration and development industry.Readers are advised to review and consider risk factors disclosed in the AIF for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov, as well as the following additional risk factors:

27

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Reliance on Third Parties

The Company relies on third parties to fulfil their obligations under agreements entered into between the Company and the third parties. The Company currently has entered into or will enter into multiple agreements, including the option agreement with TETRA for the South West Arkansas Project brine production, the joint development agreement with Koch Technology Solutions, and the brine supply and disposal agreement, the service agreement, the offtake participation agreement and the lease agreement with LANXESS for the Lanxess Project.

Third parties may, as a result of financial or other reasons, be unable or unwilling to fulfill their obligations under the respective option, earn-in right or other agreement(s). Any one or a combination of these could result in liabilities for the Company and could adversely affect the value of the related project(s) and, by association, damage the Company’s reputation and consequently its ability to acquire or advance other projects and/or attract future partners.

Joint Venture Risks

If at any future time a third party acquires an ownership interest in the properties and projects of the Company, this arrangement would likely be subject to the risks normally associated with the conduct of joint ownership structures. These include the following: disagreements between the parties as to project development and operating matters; the inability of any or both parties to meet contractual obligations under the relevant agreements, such as funding requirements, or to third parties; and disputes or litigation between the parties regarding budgets, development activities, reporting requirements and other matters. The occurrence of any such matters could have a material adverse impact on the Company and the viability of its interests in the project over which a joint venture is created. This in turn could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business prospects, results of operations and financial condition.

Royalty Regime Risks

Changes in royalty policies, including the taxation of royalties, in jurisdictions where the Company operates could impact the economics of current and future lithium extraction projects. New or revised royalties or other fiscal regimes could affect project costs and profitability, potentially having a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial performance and project viability. An increase in royalties could also reduce earnings and make future capital investments and operations less economic.

Preliminary Feasibility Study

The South West Arkansas PFS does not have sufficient certainty to constitute a DFS. The Company cannot give assurance that it will ever be in a position to declare a proven or probable mineral reserve at the South West Arkansas Project. Whether the Company completes the anticipated DFS on this project, and thereby delineates proven or probable mineral reserves, depends on a number of factors, including:

● the particular attributes of the deposit (including its size, grade, geological formation and proximity to infrastructure);

● lithium prices, which are highly cyclical;

● government regulations (including regulations relating to taxes, royalties, land tenure, land use and permitting); and

● environmental protection considerations.

We cannot determine at this time whether any of the mineral resource estimates will ultimately be converted into mineral reserves.

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Mineral Resource Uncertainties

Calculations of mineral resources, mineral reserves and metal recovery are estimates only, and there can be no assurance about the quantity and grade of minerals until reserves or resources are actually mined. Until mineral reserves or mineral resources are actually mined and processed, the quantity of mineral reserves or mineral resources and grades must be considered as estimates only. In addition, the quantity of mineral reserves or mineral resources may vary depending on commodity prices. Any material change in the quantity of mineral resources, grade or stripping ratio or recovery rates may adversely affect the economic viability of the Company’s projects and the Company’s financial condition and prospects.

Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty which may attach to mineral resources, there can be no assurances that mineral resources will be upgraded to mineral reserves as a result of continued exploration or during the course of operations. There can be no assurances that any of the mineral resources or mineral reserves stated in the published technical reports of the Company will be realized. Until a deposit is actually extracted and processed, the quantity of mineral resources or mineral reserves, grades, recoveries and costs must be considered as estimates only. In addition, the quantity of mineral resources or mineral reserves may vary depending on, among other things, product prices. Any material change in the quantity of mineral resources or mineral reserves, grades, dilution occurring during mining operations, recoveries, costs or other factors may affect the economic viability of stated mineral resources or mineral reserves. In addition, there is no assurance that mineral recoveries in limited, small scale laboratory tests or pilot plants will be duplicated by larger scale tests or during production. Fluctuations in lithium prices, results of future drilling, metallurgical testing, actual mining and operating results, and other events subsequent to the date of stated mineral resources and mineral reserves estimates may require revision of such estimates. Any material reductions in estimates of mineral resources or mineral reserves could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

To date, the Company has established mineral reserves at its Lanxess Project pursuant to the Lanxess DFS and mineral resources at its South West Arkansas Project pursuant to the South West Arkansas PFS. In addition, the Company is engaged in exploration on its other properties in order to determine if any economic deposits exist thereon. The Company may expend substantial funds in exploring some of its properties only to abandon them and lose its entire expenditure on the properties if no commercial or economic quantities of minerals are found. Even if commercial quantities of minerals are discovered, the exploration properties might not be brought into a state of commercial production. Finding mineral deposits is dependent on a number of factors, including the technical skill of exploration personnel involved.

The commercial viability of a mineral deposit once discovered is also dependent on a number of factors, some of which are the particular attributes of the deposit, such as content of the deposit including harmful substances, size, grade and proximity to infrastructure, as well as metal prices and the availability of power and water in sufficient supply to permit development. Most of these factors are beyond the control of the entity conducting such mineral exploration. The Company is an exploration and development stage company with no history of pre-tax profit and no income from its operations. There can be no assurance that the Company’s operations will be profitable in the future. There is no certainty that the expenditures to be made by the Company in the exploration and development of its properties will result in discoveries of mineralized material in commercial quantities. Most exploration projects do not result in the discovery of commercially mineable deposits and no assurance can be given that any particular level of recovery of mineral reserves will in fact be realized or that any identified mineral deposit will ever qualify as a commercially mineable (or viable) mineral deposit which can be legally and economically exploited. There can be no assurance that minerals recovered in small scale tests will be duplicated in large scale tests under on-site conditions or in production. If the Company is unsuccessful in its exploration and development efforts, it may be forced to acquire additional projects or cease operations.

STANDARD LITHIUM LTD.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the Three and Six Months Ended December 31, 2023

Global Financial Conditions

Global financial conditions have been subject to continued volatility. Government debt, the risk of sovereign defaults, political instability and wider economic concerns in many countries have been causing significant uncertainties in the markets. Disruptions in the credit and capital markets can have a negative impact on the availability and terms of credit and capital. Uncertainties in these markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, ability to raise capital and cost of capital. High levels of volatility and market turmoil could also adversely impact commodity prices, exchange rates and interest rates and have a detrimental effect on the Company’s business.

The recent global economic and geopolitical events, such as the war in Ukraine, ongoing conflict in the Middle East, sanctions imposed on Russia and higher energy costs coupled with supply concerns have been extremely disruptive to the world economy, with increased volatility in commodity markets, international trade and financial markets and oil and gasoline prices, all of which have a trickle-down effect on supply chains, equipment and construction. The extent and duration of the current conflicts in the Ukraine and the Middle East and related international action cannot be accurately predicted at this time and the effects of such conflicts may magnify the impact of the other risks identified, including those relating to commodity price volatility and global financial conditions.

There is a risk of substantial market and financial turmoil arising from further conflict which could have a material adverse effect on the economics of the Company’s projects and the Company’s ability to operate its business and advance project development. There is also a risk of recession, which may cause decreases in asset values and may result in impairment losses which could adversely impact the Company’s operations and the trading price of the Company’s Shares.

STANDARD LITHIUM REPORTS FISCAL SECOND

QUARTER 2024 RESULTS, SCHEDULES

INVESTOR UPDATE CALL

COMPANY CONTINUES TO ADVANCE STRATEGIC AND COMMERCIAL DISCUSSIONS; REPORTS NO DEBT OBLIGATIONS AND CASH ON-HAND

February 8, 2024 Vancouver, British Columbia. – Standard Lithium Ltd. (“Standard Lithium” or the “Company”) (TSXV:SLI) (NYSE American:SLI) (FRA:S5L), a leading near-commercial lithium development company, today reported its financial and operating results for the fiscal second quarter ended December 31, 2023.

"In 2023, the lithium sector has been under pressure, with lithium prices experiencing a significant decrease from the all-time highs seen in 2022, a situation compounded by the prevailing interest rate environment and other macroeconomic factors," says Robert Mintak, CEO and Director of Standard Lithium. "Despite the industry-wide market challenge, the long-term fundamentals for lithium continue to be strong, particularly for projects situated in geopolitically stable regions such as the United States, where policy support and other key strategic advantages are enabling for project differentiation. The Smackover region, in particular, is attracting interest from major players in the global energy sector. Discussions around strategic partnerships, joint development opportunities, and long-term off-take are robust and moving forward. In response to these market dynamics, we are taking responsible and appropriate actions that are in the best interests of our shareholders, ensuring that Standard Lithium remains well-positioned to capitalize on what continues to be an exciting sector with extraordinary growth prospects."

Salah Gamoudi, Chief Financial Officer of Standard Lithium added: “Despite a challenging commodity price environment, we expect to sustain our current operations through fiscal year 2024 with our cash available on-hand and the strategic use of our ATM program in place. Our balance sheet remains strong, with no long-term debt obligations and positive working capital, giving us the flexibility and optionality to make prudent, disciplined decisions for our shareholders. We continue to evaluate and pursue attractive, non-dilutive financing options with the guidance of our financial advisors, and as Robert mentioned, we are progressing discussions with potential strategic partners and off-takers. The need for additional capital at this point in our Company’s evolution is natural as we continue to advance our suite of projects in a responsible manner taking into account the various market dynamics, and with a focus on opportunities that are the most value accretive for our shareholders in the long-term.”

Highlights of the Second Fiscal Quarter Ended December 31, 2023

● Appointed key executives to the leadership team to support the Company’s next stage of development and growth. Salah Gamoudi was appointed as Chief Financial Officer and Michael Barman joined as Chief Development Officer. Mr. Gamoudi brings extensive experience from the oil and gas sector, including a transformative tenure at Sandridge Energy that successfully generated significant value for it shareholder. He is expected to lead the financing strategy as well as enhance the Company’s accounting and investor relations functions. Mr. Barman brings nearly 20 years of experience advising senior executives and their boards, most recently serving as Managing Director in Investment Banking at Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc. (formerly GMP Securities L.P.). He is leading late-stage discussions related to project partnerships and off-take agreements.

● Released the results of the Company’s fully optimized and proven DLE Process.  During a representative period of continuous operation the LiPRO^TM LSS achieved an average lithium recovery of 96.1% and rejected, on average, over 99% of key contaminants including over 95% of boron.

● Concluded East Texas drilling program that yielded the highest-ever reported lithium brine values in North America. The Company identified a globally-significant lithim brine asset with confirmed lithium concentrations of up to 806 mg/L and an average grade of 644 mg/L from three newly drilled wells. In addition, the results included highly elevated concentrations of potassium and bromine, demonstrating the potential for significant upside.

● Secured lithium brine production rights on South West Arkansas (“SWA”) Project. The Company exercised it’s option with TETRA Technologies, Inc. and secured exclusive brine production rights on approximately 27,000 net acres of brine leases included within the footprint of the SWA Project. The Company is now progressing the SWA through front-end engineering design (“FEED”) and the Definitive Feasiblity Study (“DFS”) stages. Subsequent to the fiscal second quarter-end, the Company selected Ausenco Engineering Canada ULC to lead the FEED and DFS studies for the project.

● Progressed the Company’s first commercial lithium project with the filing of Phase 1A’s Definitive Feasiblity Study. The Phase 1A Project located in El Dorado, Arkansas is expected to initially produce 5,700 tonnes per annum (“tpa”) of battery-quality lithium carbonate over a 25-year operating life.

● Engaged Citi for strategic financing and partnerships for the development of the Phase 1A Project, as well as advancing the South West Arkansas Project and initiatives in East Texas. LANXESS communicated it’s plans to commercialize its role in the Phase 1A Project with agreements under negotiation for brine supply, site lease, and infrastructure services, key to defining the operational framework.

● During the quarter, the Company commenced an at-the-market offering program, issuing a total of 100,100 common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange and 1,326,259 common shares on the NYSE American LLC, providing gross proceeds of Ca$0.3 million and US$3.3 million, respectively.

● The Company has no term or revolving debt obligations as of December 31, 2023.

● Cash and equivalents and working capital of Ca$15.8 million and Ca$5.7 million, respectively, as of second fiscal quarter end, and in combination with the prudent and

10.Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities consist of cash, receivables, long-term investments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. A fair value hierarchy is used to determine the financial instruments’ fair value that are recorded on the consolidated statements of financial position.

The fair value hierarchy has three levels:

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly for similar items in active markets. The Company maximizes the use of observable market data and relies on entity-specific estimates at least possible; and

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 or 3 for the period ended December 31, 2023 and the year ended June 30, 2023.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA	$	—	$	—	$	3,312	$	3,312

Investment in Aqualung Carbon Capture SA	$	—	$	—	$	3,314	$	3,314

The Company’s Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and in response to the Company’s activities. Management regularly monitors compliance with the Company’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Company.

The Company is exposed to various risks such as interest rate, credit, and liquidity risk. To manage these risks, management determines what activities must be undertaken to minimize potential exposure to risks. The objectives of the Company in managing risk are as follows:

● maintaining sound financial condition;

● financing operations; and

● ensuring liquidity to all operations.

10. Financial Instruments and Financial Risk Management - continued

In order to satisfy these objectives, the Company has adopted the following policies:

(i) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss if counterparties do not fulfill their contractual obligations and arises principally from cash deposits. The maximum credit risk is the total of our cash. The Company maintains substantially all of its cash with two major financial institutions. The majority of cash held with these institutions exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.

(ii) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due.  The Company manages this risk by careful management of its working capital (current assets less current liabilities) to try to ensure its expenditures will not exceed available resources. At December 31, 2023, the Company has working capital of $5,668 (June 30, 2023: working capital balance of $48,800). The Company is actively engaged in raising additional capital to fund its capital projects and meet financial obligations.

(iii) Foreign exchange risk

Currency risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings that arises from fluctuations of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.  The Company is exposed to currency risk through the following assets and liabilities denominated in US dollars:

	December 31, 2023	June 30, 2023
	$	$
Cash	5,434	42,745
Accounts payable	(2,271)	(5,926)

At December 31, 2023, US Dollar amounts were converted at a rate of USD 1.00 to CAD 1.325. A 10% increase or decrease in the US dollar relative to the Canadian dollar would result in a change of approximately $316 (June 30, 2023: $3,682) in the Company’s comprehensive loss for the year to date.

On January 27, 2022, a putative securities class action lawsuit was filed against the Company, Robert Mintak and Kara Norman in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned Gloster v. Standard Lithium Ltd., et al., 22-cv-0507 (E.D.N.Y.) (the “Action”). The complaint purports to seek relief on behalf of a class of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s publicly traded securities between May 19, 2020 and November 17, 2021, and asserts violations of Section 10(b) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) against all defendants and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the individually-named defendants. On April 27, 2022, the court granted Curtis T. Arata’s motion for appointment as lead plaintiff in the Action. Lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on June 29, 2022, adding Andrew Robinson as a defendant and extending the class period to February 3, 2022. The amended complaint alleges, among other things, that during the proposed class period, defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose certain facts regarding the Company’s LiSTR DLE technology and “final product lithium recovery percentage” at its DLE Demonstration Plant in southern Arkansas. The amended complaint seeks various forms of relief, including monetary damages in an unspecified amount. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on August 10, 2022, which became fully briefed on September 28, 2022. The Company intends to vigorously defend against the Action. As at December 31, 2023, the Company has not recorded any provision associated with this matter, as the outcome is undeterminable at this time.
