Final Results

Keras Resources plc (AIM: KRS) announces its final results for the year ended 31 December 2025. The Company also gives notice of its 2026 Annual General Meeting (‘AGM’), which will be held at 11:00 amon 12 October at Coveham House, Downside Bridge Road, Cobham, KT11 3EP.

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT

I am pleased to provide shareholders with an update on Keras Resources plc (“Keras” or the “Company”) for the year ended 31 December 2025 and to set out the Board’s view of the strategic opportunity now before Keras.This statement should be read in conjunction with the Strategic Update also published today.

Over the past year, we have focused on consolidating the business, investing in the operational platform at Diamond Creek, reflecting on our strategic positioning, carefully assessing the optimal allocation of capital, increasing shareholder returns, and evaluating our path forward. Additionally, the Company underwent a significant change in management in the first quarter of the year with Colton Hale taking over the leadership of the Falcon Isle Group (“FIR”) in Utah (USA), comprising Falcon Isle Resources Corp. and Falcon Isle Holdings Inc, the 100% owner of the Diamond Creek high grade phosphate mine, whilst I assumed an interim, part-time executive Chairman role at Keras.Against this backdrop, and with a royalty already being received from the Nayega manganese project in Togo, there was an opportunity to consider the Company’s way forward.

An Opportunity and a Strategic Repositioning

Earlier this year, the Board identified an opportunity to acquire an initial 51% interest in Cornerstone and support the consolidation and exploration of its land position near Opuwo in the Kaoko Belt of north-western Namibia. Cornerstone has assembled an initial contiguous land package of 6,214 hectares (62.14 square kilometres), encompassing several prospective areas, including historic artisanal and small-scale base-metal workings that provide tangible evidence of mineralisation. The Kaoko Belt is an emerging copper province which, despite its prospective geology and known copper occurrences, remains materially underexplored.

Following extensive data analysis and due diligence, the Board concluded that the Cornerstone portfolio represented a compelling opportunity to establish Keras in an emerging copper jurisdiction with the potential to create meaningful shareholder value. In considering the opportunity, the Board undertook a broader review of the Company’s strategy, balance sheet, management resources and capital allocation priorities, including its continued investment in Diamond Creek.

Keras has invested considerable time and capital in developing the Diamond Creek phosphate operation, establishing processing capacity, refining its product offering and advancing downstream opportunities. This has created an established operating business with differentiated products, clear commercial potential and, under Colton’s leadership, a strong and capable management team. The Board believes, however, that the business has reached an important inflection point and that its next phase of growth will require further capital investment.

Against this backdrop, the Board considered Keras’ growing long-term debt and the competing capital requirements of Diamond Creek and the Namibian copper opportunity. It concluded that the underlying value and longer-term potential of FIR and its phosphate assets are not adequately reflected in Keras’ current valuation and that the capital required to realise their full potential would be better sourced through a structure independent of Keras.

Accordingly, the Board determined that Keras’ capital and management resources should instead be focused on the Namibian copper opportunity. This does not represent a change in the Board’s view of the quality or potential of the phosphate business; rather, the proposed restructuring is intended to place FIR in a stronger position to fund its next stage of growth, while allowing Keras to pursue a new strategy focused on generating shareholder returns from copper in Namibia.

In conjunction with the proposed acquisition, the Board has therefore agreed, subject to shareholder approval, to sell 100% of Keras US LLC, which holds Falcon Isle Holdings LLC, Falcon Isle Resources Corp. and 50% of Phosul Utah LLCto Christopher Grosso and Joe Carbone, two of Keras’ major shareholders, for consideration comprising:

a cash payment of US$1.0 million, payable on completion; and
the cancellation of all convertible loan notes held by the purchasers, including all accrued interest.

In addition, Keras will retain an uncapped royalty of US$10 per long ton on material produced and sold by FIR, preserving meaningful exposure to the future growth and success of the Diamond Creek business without any associated ongoing operating costs or capital commitments.

The proposed transaction delivers a number of important benefits to Keras. On completion, the Company will receive substantial upfront cash consideration, remove its exposure to FIR’s creditor position, which stood at £1.826 million at 31 December 2025, and eliminate £908,000 of long-term debt. Importantly, Keras will retain uncapped exposure to future royalty income for the life of the operation, without any further funding obligation.

The transaction will also simplify Keras’ corporate structure and operating focus, allowing capital and management resources to be directed towards opportunities that the Board believes offer a more compelling pathway to shareholder value. Completion remains subject to shareholder approval, which will be sought at the Company’s forthcoming AGM on 12 October 2026, with full details of the proposed transaction set out in the circular to shareholders.

In addition to the transaction, the Company will conditionally raise £1.7 million through the issue of 85 million new shares at 2p per share, a 43% premium to the 1 July 2026 closing price, with support from existing and new resource-sector investors (the “Subscription”). Members of the Board and PDMRs also intend to participate in the Subscription, to raise a further £100,000 through the issue of an additional 5,000,000 New Ordinary Shares, following the end of the close period on publication of the interim accounts for the period to 30 June 2026, on or around 30 September 2026. The raise will be completed in two tranches, with the second tranche, which would include the Director and PDMR subscriptions, taking place on or around 1 October 2026, and will be subject to shareholder approval at the AGM.

Further details on the Subscription will be provided in the Strategic Update announcement.

Following completion, Keras will emerge with a materially strengthened balance sheet, no material debt and additional cash resources, while retaining potential long-term royalty income from both the Nayéga manganese mine in Togo and the Diamond Creek phosphate operation. This combination provides Keras with ongoing exposure to assets it has previously invested in and advanced, without associated funding obligations, while providing the financial flexibility to deploy capital into its proposed copper strategy in Namibia. The Board believes this represents a strong platform from which to build the next phase of Keras’ growth.

Financial review

The Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year shows a loss of £3,331,000 (2024 - loss £737,000). While disappointing in itself, the loss is primarily caused by an impairment charge of £2.8m relating to our North American assets in expectation of their disposal. The impairment charge takes no account of any future value of the royalty anticipated from FIR, if the recommendation for the restructuring of Keras’s interest in FIR is supported by shareholders.

In August 2025 the Company raised £750,000 through a combination of an open offer to shareholders and a subscription from our major US shareholders, Chris Grosso and Joseph Carbone. As a result of these subscriptions, they now own some 45% of the total shares in issue.

Board Changes

In January 2025 Graham Stacey resigned as CEO, and I assumed the role of interim part-time Executive Chairman. Brian Moritz is retiring from all business activities and will be stepping down from the Board at the conclusion of the 2026 AGM. I would like to thank both of them for their efforts on behalf of the Company and specifically Brian who has been with the Company since inception and has been instrumental in navigating it through the various regulatory and accounting minefields associated with running a listed entity.

With a repositioned focus towards copper exploration, development and mining in Namibia the Board will require a different balance of skills.Claire Parry remains as Independent Non-Executive Director and Nick Taylor and Andrew Malashewsky will be appointed as Non-Executive Chairman and CFO and Executive Director on 14 September 2026 respectively.I will then be moving to CEO and Executive Director.Full details are available in the Strategic Update announcement and AGM Circular.

Conclusion

The year ahead will be both exciting and important for Keras, with completion of the acquisition, execution of the proposed phosphate restructuring, mobilisation of the exploration team and commencement of field activities in Namibia representing key milestones. Following completion of the proposed transactions, we expect to be substantially debt free while retaining exposure, through two royalty interests, to projects in which we have invested significant capital and management time and which we have helped advance. This structure allows us to retain potential future upside from those assets while focusing our resources on building Keras’ next phase of growth in Namibia.

I would like to thank our shareholders for their continued patience and support during a period of transition. I would also like to thank my colleagues on the Board, our advisers and the wider technical team for their work in positioning the Company for what we believe can be a materially more attractive future.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025

Reporting entity

Keras Resources PLC is a company domiciled in England and Wales.The address of the Company’s registered office is Coveham House, Downside Bridge Road, Cobham KT11 3EP.The Group currently operates as a miner of and explorer for mineral resources.

The Group consists of Keras Resources Plc and all of its subsidiaries.

Going concern

The Directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the Group and Company financial statements.The Group’s and Company’s business activities together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position are set out in the Chairman’s Statement and Strategic Report. In addition, note 27 to the Financial Statements includes the Group’s policies and processes for managing its financial risk management objectives.

Note 29 to the Financial Statements sets out transactions agreed since 31 December 2025 which, in aggregate, are forecast to be cash flow positive for the Company and the revised Group.

In addition, the agreement for the provision of advisory and brokerage services in the Republic of Togo is now generating positive cash flow for Keras.

On this basis, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group and Company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As such, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting.

Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards in conformity with the Companies Act 2006(“UK-adopted IAS”), and the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to entities reporting in accordance with IFRS.

Basis of measurement

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis unless otherwise stated.

Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Pounds Sterling (‘GBP’ or ‘£’), which is the Group’s functional currency and is considered by the Directors to be the most appropriate presentation currency to assist the users of the financial statements.All financial information presented in GBP has been rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated.

Basis of parent company preparation

The parent company meets the definition of a qualifying entity under FRS 101 Reduced Disclosure Framework.

As permitted by FRS 101, the Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions from the requirements of IFRS:

(a) the requirements of IFRS 7 'Financial Instruments: Disclosure';

(b) the requirements within IAS 1 relating to the presentation of certain comparative information;

(d) paragraphs 30 and 31 of IAS 8 'Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors' (requirement for the disclosure of information when an entity has not applied a new IFRS that has been issued but it not yet effective); and

(e) the requirements of IAS 24 'Related Party Disclosures' to disclose related party transactions and balances between two or more members of a Group.

Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future periods of the revision if it affects both current and future periods.

Critical estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements and/or have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment within the next financial year are as follows:

Deferred consideration and the loan payable to previous minority shareholder in subsidiary company

The deferred consideration due in respect of the acquisition of the remaining 49% of Falcon Isle Resources LLC was discounted at a rate of 12% being the rate at which interest will accrue in the event of a default. This discount has been fully unwound at 31 December 2024, and the final amount has been paid in 2025.

Carrying value of intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of prospecting and exploration rights and development. Those acquired with subsidiaries are recognised at fair value at the date of acquisition.Other rights acquired and evaluation expenditure are recognised at cost. The directors assess the recoverable value at each year end and review for any signs of impairment.

Impairment of intangible assets

Intangible assets have been assessed during the current year for any impairment, and they were impaired by £2.8m. this takes account of the subsequent agreement to dispose of FIR as described in Note 29. In calculating the impairment no account was taken of the potential royalties receivable from FIR in the future.

Forecast operating profits

For the CGU, the Group prepared cash flow projections derived from the most recent forecast for the year ending 31 December 2026, Forecast revenue, fixed and variable costs are based on recent performance and expectations of future changes in the market, operating model and cost base, and take into account the transactions set out in note 29.

Discount rates

A post-tax real discount rate used to assess the forecast free cashflows from the CGU was derived from its weighted average cost of capital, taking into account specific factors relating to the country

is operates in. These rates are reviewed annually and adjusted for the risks specific to the business being assessed and the market in which the CGU operates.

Sensitivity analysis

A sensitivity analysis on the key model parameters has been performed and management has concluded that no reasonably foreseeable change in the key assumptions would result in an impairment of the intangible assets of the Group’s CGU.

Assets held for sale

On classification as held-for-sale, assets and disposal groups are measured at the lower of the carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, with any adjustments taken to profit or loss (or other comprehensive income in the case of a revalued asset).

Intercompany receivables (Company only)

All loans to subsidiaries are currently unsecured and interest free and repayable on demand.

Fair value of share options and warrants

The determination of the fair values of the schemes issued were made with reference to the Black-Scholes model. All share options have now lapsed.

Significant accounting policies

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements and have been applied consistently by Group entities.

Basis of consolidation

Business combinations

The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Group.The consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured at fair value, as are identifiable net assets acquired. Any goodwill that arises is tested annually for impairment.Any gain on a bargain purchase is recognised in profit or loss immediately.Transaction costs are expensed as incurred, except if related to the issue of debt or equity securities. The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships.Such amounts generally are recognised in profit or loss.

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group.The Group controls an entity when it 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 over the entity.The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. On disposal of subsidiaries, any amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This might mean that amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Foreign currency

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at the reporting date.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined.Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

Foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and the fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to GBP at exchange rates at the reporting date.The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to GBP at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.

Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the translation reserve except to the extent that the translation difference is allocated to non-controlling interests.When a foreign operation is disposed of in its entirety or partially such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on disposal.If the Group disposes of part of its interest in a subsidiary but retains control, then the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interests.When the Group disposes of only part of an associate or joint venture while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to profit or loss.

Financial instruments

Financial assets

The Group’s financial assets measured at amortised cost comprise trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Trade receivables and intra group balances are initially recognised at fair value.New impairment requirements use an expected credit loss model to recognise an allowance.For receivables a simplified approach to measure expected credit losses during a lifetime expected loss allowance is available and has been adopted by the Group.During this process the probability of non-payment of the receivables is assessed. This probability is then multiplied by the amount of the expected loss arising from default to determine the lifetime expected credit loss for the receivables.For trade receivables, which are reported net, such provisions are recorded in a separate provision account with the loss being reported within the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.On confirmation that the trade and intra group receivable will not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset is written off against the provision.

Non-derivative financial liabilities

The Group initially recognises debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities on the date that they are originated.All other financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date, which is the date that the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expire. The Group classifies non-derivative financial liabilities into the other financial liabilities category.Such financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value less any directly attributable transaction costs.Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Other financial liabilities comprise trade and other payables.

Share capital

Ordinary shares

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

Property, plant and equipment

Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in profit or loss.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group.Ongoing repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred.

Depreciation

Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis in the statement of comprehensive income over the estimated useful lives of each component.

Items of property, plant and equipment are depreciated from the date that they are installed and are ready for use, or in respect of internally constructed assets, from the date that the asset is completed and ready for use.

The estimated useful lives of significant items of property, plant and equipment are as follows:

Freehold property50 years
plant and equipment 20 years
office equipment2 years
computer equipment 2 years
motor vehicles 5 years

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

Intangible assets

Prospecting and exploration rights and development

Rights acquired with subsidiaries are recognised at fair value at the date of acquisition.Other rights acquired and evaluation and development expenditure are recognised at cost.

Other intangible assets

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Group and have finite useful lives are measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognised in profit or loss as incurred.

Amortisation

Intangible assets are amortised in profit or loss over their estimated useful lives, from the date that they are available for use.

The estimated useful lives are as follows:

Life of mine based on units of production

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

Amortisation is included within administrative expenses in the statement of comprehensive income.

Impairment
Intangible assets have been assessed during the current year for any impairment, and they were impaired by £2.8m. this takes account of the subsequent agreement to dispose of FIR as described in Note 29. In calculating the impairment no account was taken of the potential royalties receivable from FIR in the future.

Non-derivative financial assets

A financial asset not classified as at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired.A financial asset is impaired if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and had an impact on the estimated future cash flows from that asset that can be estimated reliably.

Objective evidence that financial assets are impaired includes default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or the disappearance of an active market for a security.In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

The Group considers evidence of impairment for financial assets measured at amortised cost (loans and receivables) at both a specific asset and collective level.All individually significant assets are assessed for specific impairment.Those found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet identified.Assets that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together assets with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment, the Group uses historical trends of the probability of default, the timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgement as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical trends.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate.Losses are recognised in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance against loans and receivables.Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised.When an event occurring after the impairment was recognised causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.

Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income

Impairment losses on financial assets at FVOCI are recognised by reclassifying the losses accumulated in the fair value reserve to profit or loss. The amount reclassified is the difference between the acquisition cost (net of any principal repayment and amortisation) and the current fair value, less any impairment previously recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument classified as FVOCI are not reversed through profit or loss.

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested annually for impairment or when there is an indication of impairment.An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or Cash Generating Unit (‘CGU’) exceeds its recoverable amount.

The recoverable amount of an asset of CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs.Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment testing is performed reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU (group of CGUs), and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU (group of CGUs) on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Employee benefits

Costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or non-current assets The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

Share-based payments

The grant-date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to the awards.The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant-date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no adjustment for differences between expected and actual outcomes.

Retirement benefits

A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognised as an expense in the profit and loss account in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.

Revenue

Turnover represents the amounts (net of VAT and trade discounts) receivable from the provisions of goods and services to the customer during the period.

The Group applies IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’. Under IFRS 15, the Group applies the 5-step method to identify contracts with its customers, determine performance obligations arising under those contracts, set an expected transaction price, allocate that price to the performance obligations, and then recognises revenues as and when those obligations are satisfied.

Revenue from the sale of processed products is recognised when ownership of the product passes to the purchaser in accordance with the relevant sales contract. Ownership passes either upon delivery or once the product is collected where customers arrange delivery.

IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive ‘5 step’ framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. Under IFRS 15, revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of the goods or services. Determining the timing of the transfer of control – at a point in time or over time – requires judgement.

Under IFRS 15, sales are recognised when control of the products has transferred, being when the products are delivered to the customer, the customer has full discretion of the usage of the projects, and there are no unfulfilled obligation which could affect the customers’ acceptance of the products and when the entity has a present right to payment for the asset. Delivery occurs when the products are delivered to a specific location and erected at that location, the risks have been transferred and the customer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales agreement.

A receivable is recognised when control transfers as this is the point in time that the consideration is unconditional because only the passage of time is required before the payment is due.

No element of financing is deemed present as the sales are typically made with a credit term of 30 days from invoice date, which is consistent with market practice.

Finance income and finance costs

Finance income comprises interest income on bank funds.Interest income is recognised as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.

In addition, finance income includes rent receivable in respect of the lease of property and equipment in Utah, USA. The lease is with the associated company, Phosul Utah LLC, and the income is recognised on an accruals basis.

Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings. Borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

Taxation

Tax expense comprises current and deferred tax.Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable

in respect of previous years.Current tax payable also includes any tax liability arising from the declaration of dividends.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.Deferred tax is not recognised for:

temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss;
temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and
taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be used.Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised; such reductions are reversed when the probability of future taxable profits improves.

Inventories

Inventories for processed material and ore stockpiles are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.Costs allocated to processed material are based on average costs and include all costs of purchase, conversion and other costs in bringing these inventories to their existing location and condition.Costs allocated to ore stockpiles are based on average costs, which include an appropriate share of direct mining costs, direct labour and material costs, mine site overhead, depreciation and amortisation.If carrying value exceeds net realisable amount, a write down is recognised.The write down may be reversed in a subsequent period if the circumstances which caused it no longer exist.

Segment reporting

Segment results that are reported to management include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.

Equity reserves

Share premium includes any premiums received on issue of share capital. Any transaction costs associated with the issue of shares are deducted from share premium.

The share option/warrant reserve is used to recognise the fair value of equity-settled share based payment transactions.

The exchange reserve is used to record exchange differences arising from the translation of foreign subsidiaries into the presentation currency.

The financial assets at FVOCI reserve is used to record unrealised accumulated changes in fair value on financial assets.

Discontinued operation

A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business, the operations and cash flows of which can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the Group and which:

represents a separate major line of business or geographic area of operations;
is part of a single co‑ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographic area of operations; or
is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale.

Classification as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classified as held‑for‑sale.

When an operation is classified as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of profit or loss and OCI is re‑presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year.

New standards and interpretations

The current standards, amendments and interpretations have been adopted in the year and have not had a material impact on the reported results in the Company's financial statements:

Amendments to IAS 1: Lack of Exchangeability

The adoption of the following mentioned standards, amendments and interpretations in future years:

Effective date – period beginning on or after
Annual improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards – Volume114	01-Jan-26

The directors have undertaken a project to review the above standards, amendments and interpretations. Management do not expect these standards to materially impact the financial statements.

Determination of fair values

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods.When applicable further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Property, plant and equipment

The fair value of property, plant and equipment recognised as a result of a business combination is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of acquisition between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably.The fair value of items of plant and equipment is based on the market approach and cost approaches using quoted market prices for similar items when available and depreciated replacement cost when appropriate.Depreciated replacement cost reflects adjustments for physical deterioration as well as functional and economic obsolescence.

Intangible assets

The fair value of other intangible assets is based on the discounted cash flows expected to be derived from the use and eventual sale of the assets.

Trade and other receivables

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated at the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.This fair value is determined for disclosure purposes or when such assets are acquired in a business combination.

Share-based payments

The fair value of the employee share options is measured using the Black-Scholes formula.Measurement inputs include the share price on the measurement date, the exercise price of the instrument, expected volatility (based on an evaluation of the Company’s historic volatility, particularly over the historic period commensurate with the expected term), expected term of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behaviour), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds).Service and non-market

performance conditions attached to the transactions are not taken into account in determining fair value.

Investments – other

When one is available, the Group measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that instrument.A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. A discount is applied to the value of any Performance shares to reflect the possibility that the milestones for conversion into ordinary shares may not be met.

Operating segments

The Group considers that it operated during the year in a single business area, being that of phosphate mining in Utah, USA. This business area formed the basis of the Group’s operating segments, together with its administration function in the United Kingdom.For each segment, the Group’s CEO (the chief operating decision maker) reviewed internal management reports on at least a quarterly basis.

Other operations relate to the Group’s administrative functions conducted at its head office and by its intermediate holding company together with consolidation adjustments.In 2025 other operations also includes advisory fees received in respect of the Nayega mine in Togo.

Information regarding the results of each reportable segment is included below.Performance is measured based on segment result before tax, as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Group’s CEO.Segment results are used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the performance of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within the exploration industry.

Factors that may affect future tax charges

At the year end, the Group had unused tax losses available for offset against suitable future profits of approximately £12,119,000 (2024: £8,818,000). A deferred tax asset has not been recognised in respect of such losses due to uncertainty of future profit streams.

Utah Phosphate Limited, 27 Waterden Road, Guildford, GU1 2AZ

The interest inFalcon Isle was acquired for nominal consideration under a binding heads of terms dated 28 July 2020. Under this agreement the Company agreed to provide US$2.5m inloans to Falcon Isle payable in agreed tranches. Falcon Isle is the 100% owner of theDiamond Creekphosphate mine located in inUtah (USA) which is a fully permitted, high grade direct shipping ore organic phosphate operating mine.

At 30 September 2020 the Company had advanced US$ 1.9m to Falcon Isle, resulting in an equity interest of 40% and bringing the cost of the investment in the associate to £1,626,000.

On 31 December 2020 the Company advanced the balance of US$0.6m and its equity interest has increased to a controlling interest of 51%.

The initial acquisitions were accounted for under the equity method of accounting but upon achieving control on 31 December 2020, the acquisition method of accounting has been applied.

The investment in associate was revalued prior to acquisition to fair value based on the price paid to acquire the additional 11% shareholding. Under IFRS 3, on acquisition of the controlling stake, the Group remeasured its original 40% investment in Falcon Isle. This led to a loss on change of ownership of £363,000 being recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

On acquisition the non-controlling interest, valued based upon net assets at acquisition, was valued at £645,000. No goodwill has arisen from the acquisition.

On 29 March 2022, the Company agreed to acquire the outstanding 49% equity interest in Falcon Isle for consideration of US$1,383,473 and loans totalling US$1,816,527 made by the vendor to Falcon `Isle, for total consideration of US$3.2 million, payable in four annual tranches of US$800,000 commencing on 1July 2022 and as such the deferred consideration and loan due to the vendor has been discounted at 12% with the discount being applied against the investment in full. This discount had been fully unwound at 31 December 2024. The non-controlling interest was eliminated against the consideration with the remaining balance of £199,311 transferred to retained earnings.

The cashflow impact of this acquisition for years ended 31 December 2024 and 2025, are the third and fourth instalments of US$800,000 each. The fourth and final instalment of US$800,000 was paid on 1 July 2025.
