Capital Access Window

Funds to support strategy to build the UK's largest income-generating digital asset treasury

Tap Global Group plc (AIM: TAP), the innovative digital finance hub that brings money, payments and crypto settlement services together in a single user-friendly app, is pleased to announce a proposed fundraising to raise a minimum of £1.0 million (before expenses) via a conditional placing of new Ordinary Shares (the “Placing Shares”) with certain new and existing institutional and other investors (the “Placing”) at a placing price of 1.0 penny per new Ordinary Share (the “Placing Price”).

The Placing will be conducted through an accelerated bookbuild (the “Accelerated Bookbuild”) which will be launched immediately following this Announcement. The Placing is subject to the terms and conditions set out in Appendix I to this Announcement.

The net proceeds from the Placing will be applied principally to the acquisition of digital assets — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and stablecoins — for the Group's balance sheet reserve under the Digital Asset Income Strategy announced on 24 August 2026, the income from which is applied to the Group's operating costs, with the balance to be applied to customer acquisition and product development.

Arsen Toroisian, Chief Executive Officer, has indicated his intention to subscribe for 17,500,000 Placing Shares at the Placing Price.

Cavendish Capital Markets Limited (“Cavendish”) is acting as sole bookrunner to the Placing (the “Bookrunner”). The Company shall, in connection with the Placing, issue warrants to the Bookrunner to subscribe for new Ordinary Shares in the Company, equating to two per cent. of the Placing Shares (“Broker Warrants”).

The Company has the authority to issue and allot the Placing Shares and the Broker Warrants pursuant to certain existing shareholder authorities granting such powers to the directors at the Company's Annual GeneralMeeting held on 2 January 2026.

Defined terms shall have the meanings given to them in Appendix II of this Announcement.

Capital Access Window

The Company wishes to announce that, following the recent amendments to the AIM Rules for Companies, it intends to utilise the newly introduced Capital Access Window facility in connection with the Placing.

The AIM Rules Capital Access Window facility provides the Company with a voluntary mechanism to implement a temporary pause in trading in its securities and the Company has elected to utilise this facility in order to achieve pricing stability during the Placing.

Accordingly, trading in the Company's Ordinary Shares will enter a Capital Access Window trading halt with effect from 7.30 a.m. on 21 September 2026 until a further announcement is made detailing the results of the Placing.

Arsen Torosian, Group CEO and Co-Founder, commented:

“TheBoard believes there is an opportunity now to begin to accumulate digital assets at a significant discount to the peak and generate income on those holdings from the first deployment via a proven yield product – Tap Earn. We are already generating income on over US$5.6 million of digital asset deposits in the Tap Earn product – creating an income generating treasury of our own at what we believe is an opportune time in the cycle and putting those assets to work is a logical next step.

This strategy sets Tap apart from mostUK, passive digital asset treasury companies which were created in 2025 – at significantly higher prices - with many trading below the value of their own holdings. Tap aims to build the UK's largest income-generating digital asset treasury to sit alongside an established, revenue generating digital finance platform. We are excited to launch this Placing to support that goal.”

Background to and reasons for the Placing

Overview

Tap Global Group plc is an AIM-quoted, regulated digital finance platform that is establishing an income-generating reserve of digital assets on its own balance sheet. Through a single application, Tap has built six live products on regulated rails that enable its customer base to:

• Spend through a Mastercard card programme wherever Mastercard is accepted worldwide;
• Earn rewards yields of up to 8% per annum on eligible balances through Tap Earn;
• Hold and convert between seven national currencies;
• Buy, sell and hold more than 70 cryptoassets; and
• Offer treasury and over-the-counter execution services to corporate and listed clients.

At 30 June 2026, the Group had more than 400,000 registered users (30 June 2025: c.391,000), held cash and cryptoassets as at 30 June 2026 of £2.15m and for the year ended 30 June 2026 generated unaudited revenue of approximately £3.0 million, and an unaudited adjusted EBITDA loss of approximately £0.26 million, ahead of market expectations at the time¹. This performance was delivered despite Bitcoin’s worst performance since 2022, falling 54% from its October 2025 to 30 June 2026.

Tap Earn — the engine

On 7 May 2026, the Company announced the full launch of Tap Earn – a yield product offering the Group's customers competitive variable yields on eligible cryptocurrency and stablecoin holdings, directly within the Tap mobile application. Tap Earn generates revenue from the spread between the gross yield earned by the Group's treasury management programme and the variable yield paid to participating customers. As announced on 24 August 2026, the ways in which the Group generates yield include.

• Staking of eligible proof-of-stake assets, earning rewards for doing so;
• Institutional borrowers pay interest to borrow against collateral on set terms
• Collateralised lending of digital assets and stablecoins to well-capitalised trading firms and institutions for a fee;
• Supplying capital to the funding markets of established exchanges, where traders borrowing for leveraged positions pay interest to the suppliers of that capital, secured under the exchange's margin rules;
• Establishing lending pools, including audited decentralised lending protocols, earning rates set transparently by supply and demand in those markets;
• Deploying stablecoin balances to earn interest across the venues above, one of the steadiest sources of income in the programme; and
• Using non-yielding assets such as Bitcoin as collateral to borrow US dollar stablecoins, which are then deployed into the lending strategies above. Loan-to-value is kept conservative, monitored continuously, and managed to avoid liquidation.

Since the launch of Tap Earn, the Group has completed seventeen consecutive weekly payouts to customers. Assets under management surpassed US$7.0 million as at 31 August 2026, up 119 per cent. since launch and approximately US$125k of yield revenue has been generated, equivalent to an annualised gross yield of approximately 7 per cent. on the programme's committed capital.

Launch of Digital Asset Income Strategy

Under the Digital Asset Income Strategy announced on 24 August 2026 (the “DAIS”), the Group will hold digital assets — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and stablecoins — as reserve assets and deploy them through its own Tap Earn programme, as outlined above, to generate income that is applied first to the Group's operating costs. As the reserve grows, the cost base is expected to be progressively covered by treasury income, allowing the revenue generated by the fintech business to become available as capital for growth. Tap aims to build the UK's largest income-generating digital asset treasury alongside an established digital finance platform.

A balance sheet strategy for an operating business

Capital raised for the DAIS is to be deployed into income-generating reserve assets rather than consumed as working capital. Reserve assets are placed into the Tap Earn programme, within counterparty, venue and loan-to-value limits set by the Board, and the income generated is applied first to the Group's operating costs. At £50 million of reserve it would be sufficient to cover all operating costs based on current costs.

While deployed, reserves are held through approved venues but are otherwise self-custodied under a Board approved authorisation policy. Reserve assets are not intended to be sold and any material expansion of the DAIS will be subject to shareholder approval. A monthly report will be published by RNS setting out the cryptoassets held, movements in and out of the reserve and the yield generated. Reserve assets are recognised as intangible assets under IAS 38 and measured at fair value by reference to active-market prices.

Reasons for the Placing and use of proceeds

The Placing is the first equity issuance under the DAIS. The Board's intention is that capital raised under the DAIS is deployed into income-generating reserve assets rather than consumed as working capital, and that the Group should not need to raise equity to fund overheads. Income from the reserve is intended, over time, to meet operating costs that would otherwise be funded from shareholders' capital, allowing the revenue of the operating business to be directed to customer acquisition and product development.

The Company intends to apply the net proceeds of the Placing as follows: approximately £0.8 million to the acquisition of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and stablecoins for the reserve; and approximately £0.1 million to customer acquisition and product development. This allocation reflects the Board's current intention and may change. Reserve acquisitions will be reported in the Company's monthly announcements.

Shareholder alignment

As announced on 12 March 2026, 468,806,185 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 63 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital prior to the Placing and held by the Company's directors, senior management and certain other shareholders, are subject to lock-in arrangements until 12 March 2029, with open-market sales restricted thereafter, subject to customary exceptions.

¹ Market expectations refer to the forecasts published by Cavendish Capital Markets Limited on 22 May 2026: revenue of £2.8 million and an adjusted EBITDA loss of £1.3 million for the year ended 30 June 2026. Adjusted EBITDA is stated before interest, taxation, depreciation, amortisation and other income.

Details of the Placing

The Company is conditionally raising gross proceeds of a minimum £1.0 million through the Placing at the Placing Price with certain new and existing institutional and other investors. The Placing Price represents a discount of approximately 13.0 per cent. to the closing mid-market price of 1.15 pence on 17 September 2026, being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this announcement.

Registration and Settlement

If Placees are allocated any Placing Shares in the Placing they will be sent a contract note, electronic trade confirmation or other (oral or written) confirmation which will confirm the number of Placing Shares allocated to them, the Placing Price and the aggregate amount owed by them to Cavendish.

Each Placee will be deemed to agree that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed as directed by Cavendish in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions which they have in place with Cavendish.

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: GB00BMVSDN09) following Admission will take place within the CREST system, subject to certain exceptions.Settlement through CREST is expected to occur on 25 September 2026 (the Settlement Date) in accordance with the contract note, electronic trade confirmation or other (oral or written) confirmation.Settlement will be on a delivery versus payment basis.However, in the event of any difficulties or delays in the admission of the Placing Shares to CREST or the use of CREST in relation to the Placing, the Company and Cavendish may agree that the Placing Shares should be issued in certificated form.Cavendish reserves the right to require settlement for the Placing Shares, and to deliver the Placing Shares to Placees, by such other means as it deems necessary if delivery or settlement to Placees is not practicable within the CREST system or would not be consistent with regulatory requirements in the jurisdiction in which a Placee is located.

Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above, in respect of either CREST or certificated deliveries, at the rate of 3 percentage points above the prevailing base rate of Barclays Bank plc as determined by Cavendish.

Subject to the conditions set out above, payment in respect of the Placees' allocations is due as set out below.Each Placee should provide its settlement details in order to enable instructions to be successfully matched in CREST.

The relevant settlement details for the Placing Shares are as follows:

CREST Participant ID of Cavendish:	601/KLCLT
Expected trade time & date:	08.00 a.m. on 23 September 2026
Settlement Date:	25 September 2026
ISIN code for the Placing Shares:	GB00BMVSDN09
Deadline for Placee to input instructions into CREST:	12.00 p.m. on 24 September 2026

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, Cavendish may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on their behalf and retain from the proceeds, for Cavendish’s own account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due.The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the Placing Price and for any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties) imposed in any jurisdiction which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on its behalf.By communicating a bid for Placing Shares, such Placee confers on Cavendish all such authorities and powers necessary to carry out such sale and agrees to ratify and confirm all actions which Cavendish lawfully takes in pursuance of such sale.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees must ensure that, upon receipt, the conditional contract note, electronic trade confirmation or other (oral or written) confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation.Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to United Kingdom stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax.If there are any circumstances in which any United Kingdom stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax or other similar taxes or duties (including any interest and penalties relating thereto) is payable in respect of the allocation, allotment, issue, sale, transfer or delivery of the Placing Shares (or, for the avoidance of doubt, if any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax is payable in connection with any subsequent transfer or agreement to transfer Placing Shares), the Company shall not be responsible for payment thereof.Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

Cavendish may terminate the Placing Agreement in certain circumstances, details of which are set out below.

Neither Cavendish nor any of its affiliates nor the Company shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision any of them may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision any of them may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of Cavendish.
