Ed Bowie, Chief Executive Officer of Beowulf, commented:
“Securing the Strategic Investment from Bacchus Capital & Affiliates is transformational for Beowulf. The Company will be fully funded to advance its assets through to the end of 2027, delivering key workstreams to demonstrate and unlock the value of the portfolio. The final Swedish FDI approval is anticipated within the coming month and will enable us to close the Financing and make additional progress at our flagship assets.
“The completion of the infill drilling campaign at Kallak provides us with positive momentum going into the second half of the year. I look forward to beginning this next chapter in Beowulf’s growth, supported by the augmented Board and management team.”

About Beowulf Mining plc
Beowulf Mining plc is an exploration and development company, listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange and the Spotlight Exchange in Sweden.
Beowulf's purpose is to generate value for all stakeholders through the sustainable exploration, development and production of raw materials that are critical to support the transition to a greener economy.
The Company has two core assets, an iron ore development project in Sweden and the development of a downstream processing facility for graphite anode materials in Finland.
The Kallak iron ore project in northern Sweden has the potential to produce a 'market leading' magnetite concentrate of over 70% iron content. Jokkmokk Iron, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, has defined a Mineral Resource, classified according to the PERC Standards 2017, of a total of 132 million tonnes ("Mt") grading 28.3% iron ("Fe") in the Measured and Indicated categories, with an Inferred Mineral Resource of 39 Mt grading 27.1% Fe. The Company secured the Exploitation Concession for Kallak in 2024 and is working towards the submission of the Environmental Permit application. A Scoping Study was completed in 2023 and the Company is focused on the completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") to demonstrate the technical and economic viability of the project.
In Finland, Grafintec, a wholly-owned subsidiary, is developing the Graphite Anode Material Plant to supply anode material to the lithium-ion battery industry. The Company completed a PFS in 2025 demonstrating extremely robust economics and has secured a site for the future construction of the downstream processing plant in Kotka in southern Finland. While the intention is to initially import graphite concentrate from a third-party mine, Grafintec has a portfolio of graphite projects in Finland including one of Europe's largest flake graphite resources in the Aitolampi project in eastern Finland. Grafintec is working towards creating a sustainable value chain in Finland from high quality natural flake graphite resources to anode material production, leveraging renewable power, targeting Net Zero CO2 emissions across the supply chain.
The Company also holds a number of exploration assets including in Kosovo through its wholly owned subsidiary Vardar.
Beowulf wants to be recognised for living its values of Respect, Responsibility and Integrity. The Company's ESG Policy is available on the website following the link below: https://beowulfmining.com/about-us/esg-policy/.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FOR THE SIX MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2026
Beowulf Mining plc (the “Company”) is domiciled in England and Wales. The Company's registered office is 201 Temple Chambers, 3-7 Temple Avenue, London, EC4Y 0DT. This consolidated financial information comprises that of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively the ‘Group’ and individually ‘Group companies’). The Group is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and evaluation of natural resources assets and has not yet generated revenues.
The condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared on the basis of the recognition and measurement requirements of UK-adopted International Accounting Standards (UK-IAS). The accounting policies, methods of computation and presentation used in the preparation of the interim financial information are the same as those used in the Group’s audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The financial information in this statement does not constitute full statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the UK Companies Act 2006. The financial information for the Period ended 30 June 2026 is unaudited and has not been reviewed by the auditors.
The financial information for the twelve months ended 31 December 2025 is an extract from the audited financial statements of the Group and Company. The comparative group income statement has been restated for the purposes of the discontinued operations under IFRS 5.
The financial statements are presented in GB Pounds Sterling. They are prepared on the historical cost basis or the fair value basis where the fair valuing of relevant assets and liabilities has been applied.
Going concern
The Company announced in June 2026 that it had entered into a binding agreement to raise a total of £3.7 million by way of a Strategic Investment from a consortium led by Bacchus Capital as part of total Financing of £4.3 million. The funding is subject to a number of conditions and approvals, a number of which have already been received including: the Takeover Panel granting a waiver of the mandatory offer provisions set out in Rule 9 of the Takeover Code that would otherwise arise under Rule 9 of the Takeover Code for the Bacchus Capital and its Affiliates to make a mandatory offer for the entire issued and to be issued share capital of the Company as a result of the issue of the shares pursuant to the proposed strategic investment, subject to the approval of independent shareholders ("Rule 9 Waiver"); independent shareholder approval of the Rule 9 Waiver; and the passing of resolutions necessary to enable the issue of the new shares, to effect a capital reorganisation and the settlement with the Convertible Loan Noteholder, conduct a share split to reduce the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares ("Capital Reorganisation"). Foreign Direct Investment ("FDI") approvals in Sweden remain outstanding but are anticipated to be received by 11 September 2026 with the completion of the Strategic Investment and Financing to close within two to three days of the receipt of the FDI approval.
In addition to this long-term funding, the Company secured interim financing for the period in which approvals are sought. Bacchus Capital and a third-party investor have acquired in total: a 2.25% royalty over the Company's Finnish assets for US$200,000 (approx. £149,231) pursuant to two royalty agreements dated 5 June 2026. The Company has an option to repurchase 50% of the Finnish royalties for a total of US$3.0 million (approx. £2.2 million).
In addition, Bacchus Capital has acquired a 2.25% royalty over the Company's Swedish assets for US$100,000 (approx. £74,615), pursuant to a royalty agreement dated 5 June 2026. The Company has the option to repurchase and cancel the Swedish royalty for i) a payment of US$115,000 (approx. £85,767) cash for a period of 30 days after the completion of the proposed Strategic Investment or, ii) after the 30-day period for a payment US$3.0 million (approx. £2.2 million).
The Strategic Investment remains subject to FDI approvals which indicate the existence of a material uncertainty, which may cast some doubt over the Group's and the Company's ability to continue as going concerns and therefore, the Group and the Company may be unable to realise their assets and discharge their liabilities in the normal course of business. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that completion of the funding is procedural and therefore believe that the going concern basis of preparation is deemed appropriate and as such the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the Group and the Company were unable to continue as going concern.

On 19 December 2025, the Company issued £500,000 unsecured convertible loan notes (“CLN”), at the same time, the Company granted 4,329,004 warrants to the investor with a 3-year term and an exercise price of £0.1155 per warrant. The CLN accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum and has a term of one year.
From an accounting perspective, the CLN consists of three components:

The equity component of the CLN has been recognised in the warrant reserve in the statement of financial position.
Interest on the CLN is recognised using the effective interest method in accordance with IFRS 9.
The value of the CLN Conversion Option is a function of the Company’s future share price. The value of the of the CLN Conversion Option depends on whether the lowest trading price in the 20 days before Conversion is higher or lower than the nominal value of the shares of the Company, being £0.05. Thus, a computational model is required which creates numerous iterations of possible daily share price evolution paths over the term of the CLN. The fair value of the Conversion Option can then be calculated for each iteration with the average of these values being the final fair value. This is known as the Monte Carlo method.
During the Period, £300,000 of the principal amount of the CLN was converted into 5,045,841 ordinary shares of the Company. A loss on conversion of £132,020 was recognised in the statement of profit or loss.
During the Period, nil options were granted (year ended 31 December 2025: 2,272,000). The options outstanding as at 30 June 2026 have an exercise price in the range of 5.0 pence to 262.5 pence (31 December 2025: 5.0 pence to 262.5 pence) and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 7 years, 351 days (31 December 2025: 8 years, 67 days).
The share-based payment expense for the options for the quarter ended 30 June 2026 was £47,511 (Q2 2025: £44,601; year ended 31 December 2025: £286,364).
The fair value of share options granted and outstanding were measured using the Black-Scholes model, with the following inputs:
| 2025 | 2024 | 2024 | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2022 | |

4,329,004 warrants were granted during the prior year. As the grant of the warrants was attached to the issue of the CLN, they have been treated as a component of the CLN and measured in accordance with IAS 32 (see note 7).

Total Group exploration costs of £14,379,988 are currently carried at cost in the financial statements. No impairment has been recognised during the Period (31 December 2025: £12,397).
Accounting estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on a number of factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Management is required to consider whether there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the carrying value of this asset may not be recoverable.
The most significant exploration asset within the Group is Kallak. During 2024, the Supreme Administrative Court delivered the verdict to uphold the Government’s awarding of the Exploitation Concession for Kallak.
Kallak is included in the condensed financial statements as at 30 June 2026 as an intangible exploration licence with a carrying value of £12,335,296 (31 December 2025: £12,590,319). Given the Exploitation Concession was awarded and based on Management’s assessment of IFRS 6 impairment indicators, Management has concluded that there is no current risk associated with Kallak and thus have not impaired the project.
During the year ended 31 December 2025, Vardar was classified as held for sale, and therefore exploration costs in relation to Mitrovica, Viti and Shala are £nil at 31 December 2025 and 30 June 2026 (see note 10).
