Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year

Advanced delivery of Mining Hardware

As at 30 June 2022, the Group held $158,184,000 in prepayments made to Bitmain for future mining hardware deliveries. Since the end of the financial year, the Group made all final scheduled payments to utilize $30,127,000 of this balance, which is expected to increase the Group’s operating capacity to 4.3 EH/s.

On 1 August, the Group announced it had reached an agreement with Bitmain to ship an additional 1.7 EH/s of mining hardware. This shipment is expected to increase the Group’s operating capacity to 6.0 EH/s. The agreement utilizes $46,006,000⁽¹⁾ of the $158,184,000 mining hardware prepayments held by the Group as at 30 June 2022, along with $5,900,000 of cash on hand. This additional 1.7 EH/s is now fully paid for by the Group (excluding shipping and taxes).

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 1. General information

The consolidated financial statements cover Iris Energy Limited as a Group consisting of Iris Energy Limited (‘Company’ or ‘Parent Entity’) and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year (collectively, the ‘Group’).

Iris Energy Limited was previously known as Iris Energy Pty Ltd until 7 October 2021, when it converted to an Australian public unlisted company limited by shares. Iris Energy Limited is incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and principal place of business are:

Registered office	Principal place of business
c/o Pitcher Partners Level 13, 664 Collins Street Docklands VIC 3008 Australia	Level 12, 44 Market Street Sydney NSW 2000 Australia

The Group completed an initial public offering (‘IPO’) on 17 November 2021. The IPO was led by lead book-runners J.P. Morgan, Canaccord Genuity and Citigroup and raised total gross proceeds of $231,538,468.

The Group is an owner and operator of institutional-grade, highly efficient proprietary Bitcoin mining data centers powered by renewable energy.

The consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, in accordance with a resolution of Directors, on 13 September 2022. The Directors have the power to amend and reissue the consolidated financial statements.

Reverse share split

On 4 November 2021, the Company effected a 1-for-5 reverse share split of its ordinary shares. Unless otherwise indicated, the per ordinary share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the 1-for-5 reverse share split.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are set out below.

Going concern

The Group has determined there is material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern but has concluded it is appropriate to prepare the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis which contemplates continuity of normal business activities, the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The operating cashflows generated by the Group are inherently linked to several key uncertainties and risks including, but not limited to, volatility associated with the economics of Bitcoin mining and the ability of the Group to execute its business plan.

For the year ended 30 June 2022, the Group incurred a loss after tax of $419,770,000 (2021: $60,390,000) and net operating cash inflows of $21,557,000 (2021: $1,761,000). As at 30 June 2022, the Group had net current assets of $75,148,000 (2021: net current liabilities of $130,034,000) and net assets of $437,362,000 (2021: net liabilities of $49,454,000).

As further background, the Group’s miners are designed specifically to mine Bitcoin and its future success will depend in a large part upon the value of Bitcoin, and any sustained decline in Bitcoin’s value could adversely affect the business and results of operations. Specifically, the revenues from Bitcoin mining operations are predominantly based upon two factors:

(i)  the number of Bitcoin rewards that are successfully mined and (ii) the value of Bitcoin. A continued decline in the market price of Bitcoin, an increase in the difficulty of Bitcoin mining, changes in the regulatory environment and/or adverse changes in other inherent risks would significantly negatively impact the Group’s operations. Due to the volatility of the Bitcoin price and the effects of possible changes in the other aforementioned factors, there can be no guarantee that future mining operations will be profitable.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

The strategy to mitigate these risks and uncertainties is to execute a business plan aimed at continued security, operational efficiency, revenue growth, improving overall mining profit, managing operating expenses and working capital requirements, maintaining capital expenditure optionality, and securing additional financing, as needed, through one or more debt and/or equity capital raisings.

The Group can wind down its operations (including not acquiring any additional mining hardware and/or incurring the associated infrastructure growth capital expenditure) in the event of unfavourable pricing in Bitcoin. The continuing viability of the Group and its ability to continue as a going concern and meet its debts and commitments as they fall due are therefore significantly dependent upon several factors. These factors have been considered in preparing a cash flow forecast over the next 12 months to consider the going concern of the Group. The key considerations include:

• A base case scenario assuming current Bitcoin prices and global hashrate for the next 12 months, which has been considered at various bitcoin and hashrate scenarios;

• The completion of key construction projects including the commissioning of the 50MW site at Prince George, British Columbia, an additional 30MW at Mackenzie, British Columbia (currently 50MW capacity) and energization at Childress, Texas;

• As at 30 June 2022, the Group held $158,184,000 in prepayments made to Bitmain Technologies Limited (‘Bitmain’) for future mining hardware deliveries. $30,127,000 of this prepayment balance relates to a portion of deliveries assumed to increase the Group’s operating capacity to 4.3 EH/s by the end of the quarter ending 31 December 2022;

• On 1 August 2022, the Group announced that it had reached agreement with Bitmain to ship an additional 1.7 EH/s of miners, which is assumed to increase the Group’s operating capacity to 6.0 EH/s before the end of the fiscal year 2023. The agreement utilizes $46,006,000⁽¹⁾ of prepayments, along with $5,869,000 of cash on hand. This additional 1.7 EH/s is now fully paid for by the Group (excluding shipping and taxes). Refer to Note 36 for further information;

• Utilization of the remaining $82,051,000⁽²⁾ of prepayments, and the timing and volume of any additional future miner deliveries (i.e. beyond the 6.0 EH/s outlined above) continue to be subject to ongoing discussions with Bitmain. For the purposes of this going concern assessment, the Group does not currently expect to make upcoming payments under the relevant contract with Bitmain; and

• The Group does not currently have any corporate level debt outstanding. For the purposes of this going concern assessment, all existing limited-recourse financing facilities are assumed to be repaid in line with the contractual terms.

These key assumptions have been considered using a range of historic Bitcoin price and global hashrate scenarios. The Group aims to maintain a degree of flexibility in both operating and capital expenditure cashflow management where it practicably makes sense, including ongoing internal cashflow monitoring and projection analysis performed to identify potential liquidity risks arising and to be able to respond accordingly.

As a result, the Group has concluded there is material uncertainty related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern and, therefore, that it may be unable to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Group considers that it will be successful in the above matters and will have adequate cash reserves to enable it to meet its obligations for at least one year from the date of approval of the consolidated financial statements, and, accordingly, has prepared the consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.

(1) The cash payment made by the Canadian subsidiary of the Group was $46,670,0000. The retranslated balance of the prepayment as at 30 June 2022 is $46,006,000.

(2) The cash payment made by the Canadian subsidiary of the Group was $83,340,000. The retranslated balance of the prepayment as at 30 June 2022 is $82,051,000.

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Basis of preparation

The consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (‘AASBs’) adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (‘AASB’) and the Corporations Act 2001. The consolidated financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (‘IASB’).

Historical cost convention

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for the revaluation of financial assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements, are disclosed in note 3.

Parent entity information

In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, these financial statements present the results of the consolidated entity only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in Note 33. Parent entity disclosures

Rounding off

The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, and in accordance with that Instrument all financial information presented in Australian dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise stated.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Iris Energy Limited as at 30 June 2022 and 30 June 2021 and the results of all subsidiaries for the years ended 30 June 2022, 30 June 2021, and 30 June 2020.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control (as listed in note 28). The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between entities in the Group are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of subsidiaries align to the policies adopted by the Group.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, without the loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction, where the difference between the consideration transferred and the book value of the share of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized directly in equity attributable to the parent.

Where the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognizes the assets including goodwill, liabilities and non- controlling interest in the subsidiary, together with any cumulative translation differences recognized in equity. The Group recognizes the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any investment retained together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.

Operating segments

Operating segments are presented using the 'management approach', where the information presented is on the same basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers (‘CODM’). The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Functional and presentation currency

The Directors have elected to change the Group’s presentation currency from Australian dollars (‘A$’) to United States dollars (‘$’, ‘US$’ or ‘US dollars’) effective from 1 July 2021. The change in presentation currency is a voluntary change which is accounted for retrospectively. All other accounting policies are consistent with those adopted in the annual financial report for the year ended 30 June 2021. The consolidated financial statements have been restated to US dollars using the procedures outlined below:

• Statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and statement of cash flows for each Group entity have been consolidated into US dollars using average foreign currency rates prevailing for the relevant period.

• Assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position have been translated into US dollars at the closing foreign currency rates on the relevant balance sheet dates.

• The equity section of the consolidated statement of financial position, including foreign currency translation reserve, accumulated losses, issued capital and the other reserves, have been translated into US dollars using historical rates.

• Earnings per share and dividend disclosures have also been restated to US dollars to reflect the change in presentation currency.

The functional currency of the Parent Entity is Australian dollars, whilst the presentation currency of the Group is now in US dollars. Some subsidiaries have a functional currency other than Australian dollars, which is translated to the presentation currency.

Transactions in currencies other than an entity’s functional currency are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than an entity’s functional currency are retranslated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the reporting date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognized in the statement of profit and loss.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in currencies other than an entity’s functional currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the initial transaction.

Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into US dollars using the relevant exchange rates at the reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into US dollars using the average exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) through the foreign currency translation reserve in equity.

The foreign currency translation reserve is recognized in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.

Revenue and other income recognition

The Group recognizes revenue and other income as follows:

Revenue from contracts with customers

Revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group is expected to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the Group: identifies the contract with a customer; identifies the performance obligations in the contract; determines the transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the transaction price to the separate performance obligations on the basis of the relative stand-alone selling price of each distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognizes revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Bitcoin mining revenue

The Group operates data center infrastructure supporting the verification and validation of Bitcoin blockchain transactions in exchange for Bitcoin, referred to as Bitcoin mining. The Group has entered into arrangements with mining pools, whereby computing power is directed to the mining pools in exchange for non-cash consideration in the form of Bitcoin. The provision of computing power is the only performance obligation in the contract with the mining pool operators.

In certain mining pools that, the Group participated in during the year ended 30 June 2020, the amount of reward for computing power depends on the pool’s success in mining blocks. In this type of pool, the total Bitcoin mined by the pool is distributed daily to the pool participant’s, net of the fees of the mining pool operator.

In other pools that, the Group participated in during the years ended 30 June 2020, 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2022, the Group is not directly exposed to the pool’s success in mining blocks. The Group is rewarded in Bitcoin for the hashrate it contributes to these mining pools. The reward for the hashrate contributed by the Group is based on the current network difficulty and global daily revenues from transaction fees, less mining pool fees.

Bitcoin mining revenue comprises of the block reward and transaction fees bundled together in a gross daily deposit of Bitcoin into the Group’s exchange wallet. Bitcoin received from the mining pool operator are remitted to the pool participants’ wallets net of the fees of the mining pool operator. The mining pool operator fees are reflected in the quantity of Bitcoin received by the Group and recorded as a reduction in Bitcoin mining revenue.

The Group measures the non-cash consideration received at the fair market value of the Bitcoin received. Management estimates fair value, on a daily basis, as the quantity of Bitcoin received multiplied by the price quoted on www.coinmarketcap.com (‘Coinmarketcap’) on the day it was received. Management considers the prices quoted on Coinmarketcap to be a level 1 input under IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement. The Group did not hold any Bitcoin on hand as at 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: Nil).

Other income

Other income is recognized when it is received or when the right to receive payment is established.

Income tax

The income tax expense for the period is the tax payable on that period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognized for prior periods, where applicable.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted, except for:

• when the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting nor taxable profits; or

• when the taxable temporary difference is associated with interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures, and the timing of the reversal can be controlled and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary difference only if the Group considers it probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilize those temporary differences and losses.

The carrying amount of recognized and unrecognized deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognized are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognized deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

16

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations, changes in tax laws, and the amount and timing of future taxable income. These uncertainties may require management to adjust expectations based on changes in circumstances, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognized in the statement of financial position and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not recognized. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying amounts of recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a corresponding credit or charge to the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income/(loss).

Current and non-current classification

Assets and liabilities are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when it is either expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the Group’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when it is either expected to be settled in the Group’s normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Other receivables

Other receivables are recognized at amortized cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.

Investments and other financial assets

Investments and other financial assets are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs are included as part of the initial measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured at either amortized cost or fair value depending on their classification. Classification is determined based on both the business model within which such assets are held and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset unless an accounting mismatch is being avoided.

Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off.

Financial assets at amortized cost

A financial asset is measured at amortized cost only if both of the following conditions are met: (i) it is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and (ii) the contractual terms of the financial asset represent contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

Impairment of financial assets

The Group recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the Group’s assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument’s credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

17

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset’s lifetime expected credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognized is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis to write off the net cost of each item of property, plant and equipment (excluding land) over their expected useful lives as follows:

Buildings	20 years
Plant and equipment	3-7 years
Mining hardware	4 years

The residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the Group. Gains and losses between the carrying amount and the disposal proceeds are taken to profit or loss.

Assets under construction consist of capitalized site preparation fees and buildings (including data centers) currently being built. Assets under construction are not depreciated until they are available for use. Once an asset becomes available for use, it is transferred to another category within property, plant and equipment and depreciated over its useful economic life.

Mining hardware includes both installed hardware units and units that have been delivered but are in storage, yet to be installed. Depreciation of mining hardware commences once units are onsite and available for use.

Repair and maintenance costs incurred in connection with planned major maintenance activities are expensed to ‘other expenses’ in profit or loss.

Leases

The Group assesses at contract inception whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. That is, if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Group applies a single recognition and measurement approach for all leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets.

A right-of-use asset is recognized at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities. The cost of the right-of-use assets includes the amount of the lease liability recognized, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and restoring the site or asset. Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the estimated useful lives of the assets.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

18

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of the lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amount expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate.

In calculating the present value of the lease payments, the Group uses the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate are included in the lease liability, measured using the index or rate as at the date of recognition. The lease liability is subsequently increased by the interest cost on the lease liability and decreased by lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the lease payments (e.g. changes to future payments resulting from a change in an index or rate used to determine such lease payments) or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. The Group has applied judgement to determine the lease term for contracts which include renewal and termination options.

Goodwill

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business. Goodwill is not amortized. Instead, goodwill is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed.

Impairment of assets

At the end of the reporting period, property, plant and equipment, goodwill and right-of-use assets are reviewed to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any affected asset (or cash generating units) is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, where the recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal (‘FVLCOD’) or the value in use (‘VIU’). In assessing FVLCOD or VIU, the estimated future cash flows of the asset are discounted to their present value using a discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the asset or the cash-generating unit (‘CGU’) to which the asset belongs and relevant market assessments. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (CGU).

Trade and other payables

These amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are not discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Borrowings

Loans and borrowings are initially recognized at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Hybrid financial instruments (SAFE and convertible notes)

Hybrid financial instruments are separated into the host liability and embedded derivative components based on the terms of the agreement. On issuance, the liability component of the hybrid financial instrument is initially recognized at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option. The embedded derivative component is initially recognized at fair value and changes in the fair value are recorded in profit or loss. The host debt is carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method until it is extinguished on conversion or redemption. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and embedded derivative components in proportion to their initial carrying amount.

De-recognition of financial liabilities

The Group de-recognizes financial liabilities when, and only when, the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

19

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Finance costs

Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalized as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed using the effective interest rate method.

Provisions

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a present (legal or constructive) obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. If the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate specific to the liability. The increase in the provision resulting from the passage of time is recognized as a finance cost.

Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits

Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and long service leave expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Share-based payments

Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees. Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares and restricted stock units, that are provided to employees in exchange for the rendering of services.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is independently determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and Monte-Carlo simulations which take into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact of dilution, the share price at grant date, expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option, together with non-vesting conditions that do not determine whether the Group receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment.

The cost of equity-settled transactions is recognized as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the best estimate of the number of awards that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting period. The amount recognized in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already recognized in previous periods.

Market conditions are taken into consideration in determining fair value. Therefore, any awards subject to market conditions are considered to vest irrespective of whether or not that market condition has been met, provided all other conditions are satisfied.

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum, an expense is recognized as if the modification has not been made. An additional expense is recognized, over the remaining vesting period, for any modification that increases the total fair value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.

Fair value measurement

When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; and assumes that the transaction will take place either: in the principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.

Fair value is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming they act in their economic best interests. For non-financial assets, the fair value measurement is based on its highest and best use. Valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, are used, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.

*Prior period comparative information has been restated due to a voluntary change in the Group’s presentation currency from AUD to USD, refer to note 2 for further details.

20

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 2. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into three levels, using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. Classifications are reviewed at each reporting date and transfers between levels are determined based on a reassessment of the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

For recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements, external valuers may be used when internal expertise is either not available or when the valuation is deemed to be significant. External valuers are selected based on market knowledge and reputation. Where there is a significant change in fair value of an asset or liability from one period to another, an analysis is undertaken, which includes a verification of the major inputs applied in the latest valuation and a comparison, where applicable, with external sources of data.

Issued capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Iris Energy Limited, excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for any bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year. The weighted average number of shares is also adjusted for any ordinary shares to be issued under mandatorily convertible instruments issued by the Group (SAFE see note 17).

Diluted earnings per share

Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted average number of shares assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Goods and Services Tax (‘GST’) and other similar taxes

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognized net of the amount of associated GST, unless the GST incurred is not recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognized as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of GST receivable or payable. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority is included in other receivables or other payables in the statement of financial position.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted

The Group has adopted all of the new or amended AASBs and Interpretations as issued by AASB that are mandatory for the current reporting period. These new standards did not have a material impact on the Group

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted. The Group believes that the impact of recently issued standards or amendments to existing standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 3. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events, management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities (refer to the respective notes) within the next financial year are discussed below.

Share-based payment transactions

The Group measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by using the Black-Scholes-Merton option- pricing model and Monte-Carlo simulations which take into account the terms and conditions upon which the instruments were granted. Management has exercised its best judgements in determining the key inputs for the valuation models used, which includes volatility, grant-date share price, expected term and the risk-free rate. Please refer to note 31 for the key assumptions.

Estimation of useful lives of assets

The Group determines the estimated useful lives and related depreciation and amortization charges for its property, plant and equipment. The useful lives could change significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The depreciation and amortization charge will increase where the useful lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold, will be written off or written down.

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill

The Group assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the Group and to the particular asset that may lead to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves assessing the value of the asset at FVLCOD or using VIU models, which incorporate a number of key estimates and assumptions. For the year ended 30 June 2022, the Group recorded an impairment of $167,000 on right- of-use assets held in relation to prepaid hosting fees. For the year ended 30 June 2021, the Group recorded an impairment of $432,000 on buildings and mining hardware assets.

No triggers existed at the reporting date which suggested any additional impairment of assets was necessary.

Deferred tax

Deferred tax assets relating to temporary differences and unused tax losses are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the future taxable profit will be available against which the benefits of the deferred tax can be utilized. At the reporting date, deferred tax assets have only been recognized to the extent of deferred tax liabilities if they are related to the same tax jurisdiction. Deferred tax assets in relation to losses have not been recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position and will not be recognized until such time when there is more certainty in relation to the availability of future taxable profits.

Income tax

Uncertainties exist with respect to the interpretation of complex tax regulations, changes in tax laws, and the amount and timing of future taxable income. These uncertainties may require management to adjust expectations based on changes in circumstances, which may impact the amount of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position and the amount of other tax losses and temporary differences not yet recognized. In such circumstances, some or all of the carrying amounts of recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities may require adjustment, resulting in a corresponding credit or charge to profit or loss or other comprehensive income/(loss).

Non-current assets
Mining hardware prepayments		158,184		75,129

Mining hardware prepayments represent payments made by the Group for the purchase of mining hardware that is yet to be delivered. These prepayments are in accordance with payment schedules set out in relevant purchase agreements with hardware manufacturers.

Certain subsidiaries of the Group have entered into three binding hardware purchase agreements with Bitmain. The first two agreements relate to hardware that is expected to enable the Group to achieve 4.3 EH/s of operating capacity. The third agreement is a $400,000,000 hardware purchase agreement for approximately 10 EH/s of miners.

On 1 August 2022, the Group announced that it had reached agreement with Bitmain to ship an additional 1.7 EH/s of miners under the third agreement, which is expected to increase the Group’s operating capacity to 6.0 EH/s.

As at 30 June 2022, the Group held $158,184,000 in prepayments made to Bitmain for future mining hardware deliveries.

$76,133,000 of this balance relates to deliveries expected to be installed during the year ended 30 June 2023 which are expected to take the Group’s operating capacity to 6.0 EH/s.

The remaining $82,051,000 of the $158,184,000 held as at 30 June 2022, relates to future deliveries beyond the expected operating capacity of 6.0 EH/s (in respect of 25% of the purchase price of the respective batches under the third hardware purchase agreement referenced above). The relevant subsidiary of the Group has not made all recent scheduled payments under this contract and does not currently expect to make upcoming payments in respect of any such additional future deliveries under this contract. Utilization of the $82,051,000 of prepayments, continue to be subject to ongoing discussions with Bitmain.

Under the third Bitmain contract, if the relevant subsidiary fails to pay the remaining commitments as and when they become due (and fail to make a written request to Bitmain no less than five business days prior to the relevant deadline and obtain Bitmain’s written consent), Bitmain is entitled to terminate the shipment of the respective batch of equipment and that subsidiary will be liable for reasonable, non-penalty liquidated damages of 20% of the purchase price of such batch. If there is any remaining balance after deducting the non-penalty liquidated damages from prepayments made under this contract, such remaining balance will be refunded free of any interest. If the relevant subsidiary fails to pay down payments due under this contract by the prescribed deadlines it may also be responsible for any loss incurred by Bitmain in relation to the production or procurement of that relevant batch of mining hardware.

The prepaid hosting fee right-of-use asset for a facility based in USA has been impaired as the Group is focused on executing its strategy to build, own and operate data centers. The contract was terminated during the year ended 30 June 2022.

The land right-of-use asset represents a 30-year lease of a site in Prince George, British Columbia, Canada, as well as a 3- year lease of a corporate office in Sydney, Australia.

The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less, and leases of low value assets. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The Group operates as a single cash generating unit. To determine if goodwill is impaired, the carrying value of the identified CGU to which the goodwill is allocated is compared to its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of the CGU is based on ‘value in use’ calculations, determined by discounting the future cash flows to be generated from continuing the use of the CGU. Cash flow projections have been based on management’s best estimates covering a three-year period. Cashflows beyond this three-year period are extrapolated using a growth rate of 2.5%. The growth rate does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the business. The Group has applied post-tax discount rates to discount the forecast future attributable post-tax cash flows. The equivalent pre-tax discount rate used to present value the cash flow projections was 23.5%.

Management determined that the Group’s carrying value was supported by its recoverable amount and no impairment exists at the reporting date. In forecasting cash flows over the three-year period, management has assumed bitcoin price and global hashrate based on historic data, completion of key construction sites within the Group, increasing the expected operating hashrate to 6.0 EH/s before the end of the fiscal year 2023 and electricity costs remain within the current regulated levels in British Columbia, Canada and at forecasted external market pricing in unregulated markets.

Mining hardware finance

During the year ended 30 June 2021, certain subsidiaries within the Group entered into limited recourse equipment financing and security agreements pursuant to which various mining hardware was financed. These facilities carry an annual contractual interest rate of 12% and are denominated in United States dollars. The facilities are repaid through blended monthly payments of interest and principal with the final payment due to the financier on 25 September 2023.

On 24 March 2022, a subsidiary within the Group entered into a $71,196,000 limited recourse equipment finance and security agreement with NYDIG ABL LLC. The facility has a contractual term of 25 months and is secured by 19,800 Bitmain S19j Pro miners (1.98 EH/s) with an applicable interest rate of 11% per annum. The facilities are repaid through blended monthly payments of principal and interest with the final payment due April 2024. All of the mining hardware facilities held by the Group are contracted directly between the third-party financier and the relevant Canadian subsidiaries of the Group.

SAFE

During the year ended 30 June 2021, on 28 October 2020, the Group entered into a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (‘SAFE’) with a total face value of $2,955,000 and a maturity term of 12 months. The SAFE instruments were to be settled at the earlier of an exit event (being a listing, a share sale or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company) or maturity. Upon initial recognition, an embedded derivative was recognized separately as a derivative liability at fair value (see note 18).

Convertible notes

Non-Refundable Sales Tax

The Canada Revenue Agency (‘CRA’) is currently conducting an audit of input tax credits (‘ITCs’) claimed by several of the Group’s Canadian subsidiaries during the period October 2019 to December 2021. The CRA has issued an assessment in relation to one of the entities which, the Directors believe would be applied across the Group’s Canadian subsidiaries. Under the proposed decision, the CRA has noted that ITCs claimed by the Group would be allowed. However, the Canadian subsidiaries would also be required to remit an amount of 5% on services exported to the Australian parent under an intercompany service agreement. The export of services typically attract a 0% rate of GST in Canada. If GST were to apply to these services at a rate of 5%, the Australian parent may not be permitted to recover this tax

The Group has submitted additional information to the CRA to further support the ITCs claimed and the 0% rate applied to the exported services and will consider proceeding with an administrative appeal process.

As at 30 June 2022, the Group holds $11,235,000 in ITCs as an 'other receivable' (refer to note 11). If the decision were to be upheld, the Group would receive a refund from the CRA of approximately $8,766,000 (representing a refund of the $11,235,000 ITCs claimed to 30 June 2022 less a non-refundable GST liability of $2,469,000 on intercompany service revenue as at 30 June 2022). The Group has provided for the potential liability as at 30 June 2022.

The Group has no other provisions as at 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: Nil).

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 25. Financial instruments

Financial risk management objectives

The Group has a simple capital structure and its principal financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Group is subject to market risk by way of being exposed to daily volatility in the Bitcoin price and variations in foreign exchange rates. The Group has limited exposure to credit risk. The Group holds cash and cash equivalents with regulated authorized deposit taking institutions which have strong credit ratings. The Group may also be exposed to liquidity and capital risk, due to the nature of operations and the requirements to pay mining hardware commitments.

Risk management is carried out by senior executives who identify, evaluate and hedge financial risks.

Market risk

Foreign currency risk

The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated in foreign currency and is exposed to foreign currency risk through foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognized financial assets and financial liabilities denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and cash flow forecasting.

The Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises when a Group entity holds a financial asset or liability in a currency other than the functional currency of that entity. At the end of the reporting period, the Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk was as follows (denominated in US dollars):

	Assets				Liabilities
	30 June 2022		30 June 2021 (restated*)		30 June 2022		30 June 2021 (restated*)
Consolidated	US$’000		US$’000		US$’000		US$’000

		250,976		82,450		140,400		20,153

Sensitivity analysis

The following table illustrates sensitivities to the Group’s exposure to changes in exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis includes external loans as well as loans to foreign operations within the Group where the denomination of the loan is in a currency other than the currency of the lender or the borrower. The table indicates the impact on how profit and equity values reported at the end of the reporting period would have been affected by changes in the relevant risk variables that management considers to be reasonably possible. These sensitivities assume that the movement in a particular variable is independent of other variables, each scenario assumes no change to other variables.

Price risk

The Group is exposed to daily price risk on Bitcoin rewards it generates through contributing computing power to mining pools. Bitcoin rewards are liquidated on a daily basis and no Bitcoin is held as at the reporting period end (30 June 2021: nil).

Interest rate risk

The Group has limited exposure to interest rate risk, which is the risk that a financial instrument’s value will fluctuate as a result of changes in the market interest rates on variable interest-bearing financial instruments. The Group does not, at this time, use derivatives to mitigate these exposures. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents consist of balances available on demand which are held with regulated financial institutions and do not expose the Group to interest rate risk.

The Group is not subject to any interest rate risk on its borrowings as all Group borrowings have fixed interest rates.

Credit risk

The Group is exposed to counterparty credit risk from exchanges and mining pools. It mitigates this risk by maintaining relationships with various alternative mining pools and transferring fiat currency to its Australian bank account on a regular basis.

Liquidity risk

The Group is exposed to liquidity risk and is required to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay contractual obligations as and when they become due and payable. The Group manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group regularly updates cash projections for changes in business and fluctuations in the Bitcoin price. Refer to the Going Concern section within note 2 for further information in relation to how the Group intends to meet its short-term contractual obligations.

Note 26. Fair value measurement

Fair value hierarchy

The Group does not have any financial assets measured at fair value. The following table does not include fair value information for assets and liabilities not measured at fair value if the carrying amount is a reasonable approximation of fair value. The Group’s financial liabilities have been measured and disclosed at fair value, using a three-level hierarchy, based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the entire fair value measurement, being:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

As at 30 June 2022, the carrying value of all of the Group’s financial liabilities represented a reasonable approximation of the fair value of such liabilities.

Consolidated – 30 June 2021 (restated*)	Level 1 US$’000		Level 2 US$’000		Level 3 US$’000		Total US$’000
Financial Liabilities
Embedded derivative - SAFE (issued 28 October 2020)		-		-		7,424		7,424
Embedded derivative - convertible note (issued 5 January 2021)		-		-		51,307		51,307
Embedded derivative - convertible note (issued on 1 April 2021)		-		-		37,990		37,990
Total liabilities		-		-		96,721		96,721

During the financial year ended 30 June 2021, the Group issued SAFE notes and two tranches of convertible notes. Embedded derivatives were identified and recognized at fair value upon initial recognition of each of these instruments. These embedded derivatives were held at fair value through profit or loss. On 16 November 2021, immediately prior to IPO on 17 November 2021, the Group converted all outstanding convertible notes and SAFE instruments to equity in line with the associated terms attached to each instrument.

There were no transfers between levels during the financial year.

The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables and trade and other payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Valuation techniques for fair value measurements categorized within level 3

An instrument is included in level 3 if the financial instrument is not traded in an active market and if the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques that are not based on the use of observable market data for all significant inputs. The estimated fair value approximates to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Specific valuation techniques used to value level 3 financial instruments include:

• Monte-Carlo pricing simulations; and

• Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model.

Note 27. Commitments

As at 30 June 2022, the Group had commitments of $346,623,000 (includes estimated shipping and non-refundable sales tax) (30 June 2021: $156,630,000) which are payable in installments from July 2022 to October 2023. These commitments include committed capital expenditure on infrastructure and long-term purchase contracts in relation to mining hardware.

The committed amounts are payable as set out below:

	Consolidated
	30 June 2022		30 June 2021 (restated*)
	US$’000		US$’000
Amounts payable within 12 months of balance date		322,706		148,274
Amounts payable after 12 months of balance date		23,917		8,356
		346,623		156,630

Certain subsidiaries of the Group have entered into three binding hardware purchase agreements with Bitmain. The first two agreements relate to hardware that is expected to enable the Group to achieve 4.3 EH/s of operating capacity. The third agreement is a $400,000,000 hardware purchase agreement for approximately 10 EH/s of miners.

On 1 August 2022, the Group announced that it had reached agreement with Bitmain to ship an additional 1.7 EH/s of miners under the third agreement, which is expected to increase the Group’s operating capacity to 6.0 EH/s.

As at 30 June 2022 commitments of $316,160,000 (including estimated shipping and non-refundable sales tax) relates to the third agreement with Bitmain, payable in installments from July 2022 until October 2023. The relevant subsidiary of the Group has not made all scheduled payments under this contract and does not currently expect to make upcoming payments in respect of any such additional future deliveries under this contract. This contract is subject to ongoing discussions with Bitmain.

Under the third Bitmain contract, if the relevant subsidiary fails to pay the remaining commitments as and when they become due (and fail to make a written request to Bitmain no less than five business days prior to the relevant deadline and obtain Bitmain’s written consent), Bitmain is entitled to terminate the shipment of the respective batch of equipment and that subsidiary will be liable for reasonable, non-penalty liquidated damages of 20% of the purchase price of such batch. If there is any remaining balance after deducting the non-penalty liquidated damages from prepayments made under this contract, such remaining balance will be refunded free of any interest. If the relevant subsidiary fails to pay down payments due under this contract by the prescribed deadlines it may also be responsible for any loss incurred by Bitmain in relation to the production or procurement of that relevant batch of mining hardware.

Iris Energy Limited Notes to the consolidated financial statements 30 June 2022

Note 31. Share-based payments

The Group has entered into a number of share-based compensation arrangements. Details of these arrangements, which are considered as options for accounting purposes, are described below:

Employee Share Plan

The Group's Employee Share Plan is a loan-funded share scheme. These loan-funded shares generally vest subject to satisfying employment service periods (and in some cases, non-market-based performance milestones). The employment service periods are generally met in three equal tranches on the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the grant date. Under this scheme, the Company issues a limited recourse loan (that has a maximum term of up to 9 years and 11 months) to employees for the sole purpose of acquiring shares in the Company. Upon disposal of any loan-funded shares by employees, the aggregate purchase price for the shares shall be applied by the Company to pay down the outstanding loan payable.

The recourse on the loan is limited to the lower of the initial amount of the loan granted to the employee and the proceeds from the sale of the underlying shares. Employees are entitled to exercise the voting and dividend rights attached to the shares from the date of allocation. If the employee leaves the Company within the vesting period, the shares may be bought back by the Company at the original issue price and the loan is repaid. Loan-funded shares have been treated as options as required under AASB 2 Share-based Payments. Vesting of instruments granted under the Employee Share Plan is dependent on specific service thresholds being met by the employee.

2021 Executive Director Liquidity and Price Target Options

On 20 January 2021, the Group's board approved the grant of 1,000,000 options each to entities controlled by Daniel Roberts and William Roberts (each an Executive Director) to acquire ordinary shares at an exercise price of $3.8647 (A$5.005) with an expiration date of 20 December 2025. All 'Executive Director Liquidity and Price Target Options' vested on completion of the IPO on 17 November 2021 in accordance with the following vesting thresholds:

• If the IPO price or volume weighted average market price (‘VWAP’) of an ordinary share over any consecutive 20 trading day period is equal to or exceeds $5.41 (A$7.00): 300,000 options vest

• If the IPO price or VWAP of an ordinary share over any consecutive 20 trading day period is equal to or exceeds $6.96 (A$9.00): 300,000 options vest

• If the IPO price or VWAP of an ordinary share over any consecutive 20 trading day period is equal to or exceeds $8.50 (A$11.00): 400,000 options vest

The option holder is entitled to receive, in its capacity as a holder of the options, an income distribution per vested option equal to any dividend, distribution, capital return or buyback proceeds (collectively, ‘Distribution’) paid by the Company per ordinary share as if any vested options were exercised and ordinary shares issued to the option holder at the relevant time of such Distribution. The options are subject to customary adjustments to reflect any reorganization of the Company’s capital. As at 30 June 2022, none of the 2,000,000 outstanding vested 'Executive Director Liquidity and Price Target Options' have been exercised.

Employee Option Plan

The Board approved an Employee Option Plan on 28 July 2021. The terms of the Employee Option Plan are substantially similar to the Employee Share Plan, with the main difference being that the incentives are issued in the form of options and loans are not provided to participants. If the employee leaves the Company within the vesting period of the options granted, the Board retains the absolute discretion to cancel any unvested options held by the employee. Vesting of options granted under the Employee Option Plan is dependent on specific service thresholds being met by the employee.

Non-Executive Director Option Plan

The Board approved a Non-Executive Director Option Plan (‘NED Option Plan’) on 28 July 2021. The terms of the NED Option Plan are substantially similar to the Employee Option Plan. Vesting of instruments granted under the NED Option Plan is dependent on specific service thresholds being met by the Non-Executive Director. Where an option holder ceases to be a Director of the Company within the vesting period, the options granted to that Director will vest on a pro-rata basis of the associated service period. The Board retains the absolute discretion to cancel any remaining unvested options held by the option holder.

Note 31. Share-based payments (continued)

2021 Executive Director Long-term Target Options

On 18 August 2021, the Group's shareholders approved the grant of 2,400,000 long-term options each to entities controlled by Daniel Roberts and William Roberts to acquire ordinary shares at an exercise price of $75 per option (‘Long-term Target Options’). These options were granted on 14 September 2021, and have a contractual exercise period of 12 years.

The Long-term Target Options will vest in four tranches following listing of the Company, if the relevant ordinary share price is equal to or exceeds the corresponding vesting threshold and the relevant Executive Director has not voluntarily resigned as a Director of the Company. The vesting thresholds are detailed below:

• If the VWAP of an ordinary share over the immediately preceding 20 trading days is equal to or exceeds $370: 600,000 Long-term Target Options will vest

• If the VWAP of an ordinary share over the immediately preceding 20 trading days is equal to or exceeds $650: 600,000 Long-term Target Options will vest

• If the VWAP of an ordinary share over the immediately preceding 20 trading days is equal to or exceeds $925: 600,000 Long-term Target Options will vest

• If the VWAP of an ordinary share over the immediately preceding 20 trading days is equal to or exceeds $1,850: 600,000 Long-term Target Options will vest

The VWAP vesting thresholds may also be triggered by a sale or takeover of the Company based upon the price per ordinary share received in such transaction.

The option holder is entitled to receive in its capacity as a holder of the options, a distribution paid by the Company per ordinary share as if the vested options were exercised and ordinary shares issued to the option holder at the relevant time of such distribution.

The options are subject to customary adjustments to reflect any reorganization of the Company's capital, as well as adjustments to vesting thresholds including any future issuance of ordinary shares by the Company.

Reconciliation of outstanding share options

Set out below are summaries of options granted under all plans:

	Number of options			Weighted average exercise price		Number of options			Weighted average exercise price

Valuation methodology

The fair value of instruments issued under the Employee Share Plan, Employee Option Plan and NED Option Plan have been measured using a Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. The fair value of the Executive Director Liquidity and Price Target Options and 2021 Executive Director Long-term Target Options have been measured using a Monte-Carlo simulation. Service and non-market performance conditions attached to the arrangements were not taken into account when measuring fair value.

The following table list the inputs used in measuring the fair value of arrangements granted during the years ended 30 June 2022, 30 June 2021 and 30 June 2020:

The B Class shares were formally issued on 7 October 2021. Each B Class share confers on the holder fifteen votes for each ordinary share in the Company held by the holder. In addition, a B Class share confers a right for the holder to nominate a Director to put forward for election to the Board. Because of the increased voting power of the B Class shares, the holders of the B Class shares collectively could continue to control a significant percentage of the combined voting power of the Company's shares and therefore be able to control all matters submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval until the redemption of the B Class shares by the Company on the earlier of (i) when the holder ceases to be a Director due to voluntary retirement; (ii) a transfer of B Class shares in breach of the Constitution; (iii) liquidation or winding up of the Company; or (iv) at any time which is 12 years after the Company’s ordinary shares are first listed on a recognized stock exchange. Aside from these governance rights, the B Class shares do not provide the holder with any economic rights (e.g., the B Class shares do not confer on its holder any right to receive dividends). The B Class shares are not transferable by the holder (except in limited circumstances to affiliates of the holder).

This additional 1.7 EH/s is now fully paid for by the Group (excluding shipping and taxes).

Utilization of the remaining $82,051,000⁽²⁾ of prepayments, and the timing and volume of any additional future mining hardware deliveries (i.e., beyond the 6.0 EH/s outlined above) continue to be subject to ongoing discussions with Bitmain.

No other matter or circumstance has arisen since 30 June 2022 that has significantly affected, or may significantly affect the Group's operations, the results of those operations, or the Group's state of affairs in future financial years.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF IRIS ENERGY LIMITED

Report on the Audit of the Financial Report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Iris Energy Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively the Group), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2022, the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies, and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Group is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

a) giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2022, and of its consolidated financial performance for the year then ended; and

b) complying with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the 'Auditor’s responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report’ section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standard Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We confirm that the independence declaration required by the Corporations Act 2001, which has been given to the directors, would be in the same terms if given to the directors as at the time of this auditor’s report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Material Uncertainty related to Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Group will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, significant uncertainties exist about the Group’s ability to generate positive free cash flow and raise sufficient capital to fund outstanding purchase commitments. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in relation to these matters are also described in Note 2. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Other Information

The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Group’s financial report for the year ended 30 June 2022, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Liability limited by a scheme approved under Professional Standards Legislation.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial report or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The directors of Iris Energy Limited are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of this financial report.
