The document is available in English and Swedish on the Jokkmokk Iron website: Jokkmokk Iron Sustainability Strategy . ·      Technical activity focused on mining fleet optimisation with ongoing studies completed in collaboration with two market-leading Nordic truck manufacturers for Kallak. Each offer battery electric, autonomous mining solutions and have demonstrated the ability to meet Jokkmokk Iron's criteria. ·      The Company announced during the Period that a consortium led by Jokkmokk Iron had been conditionally awarded funding of €1.1 million from the European Institute of Innovation and Technology ("EIT") as part of the €2.4 million NordicPipe project ("NordicPipe"). The NordicPipe project's objective is to advance technical and environmental knowledge, that will enable the development and roll-out of slurry pipelines as a sustainable transportation solution in the Nordic region. Following the end of the Period, as announced on 27 April 2026, the consortium decided to withdraw from the EIT funding programme and advance the NordicPipe project independently. The consortium concluded that the project's key objectives can be achieved more efficiently, with greater flexibility, and with a lower overall cost and administrative burden independently from the EIT programme.   Finland ·      Beowulf's wholly owned Finnish subsidiary, Grafintec Oy ("Grafintec"), published a Grafintec Sustainability Strategy setting out the company's vision, principles and approach to managing its environmental and social impacts. The document is available in English and Finnish on the Grafintec website: Grafintec Sustainability Strategy . ·      Grafintec submitted an application for EU Strategic Project status for the Graphite Anode Materials Plant ("GAMP") during the Period. ·      The Company announced that its applications to Business Finland for a Tax Credit and Research, Development and Piloting Loan had been unsuccessful due to the Company failing an eligibility criterion. Business Finland noted the merit of the GAMP project and, subject to the eligibility criterion being addressed, the Company intends to reapply.   Kosovo ·      Vardar Mineral Limited ("Vardar"), the Company's wholly owned subsidiary focused on exploration in Kosovo remained subject to a non-binding offer for its sale for a total of €4 million (approximately £3.5 million) during the Period.   Corporate ·      Following the issue of the £500,000 Convertible Loan announce on 22 December 2025, a total of six conversion notices were received by to the Company for a total of £250,000 resulting in the issue of 4,045,841 shares to the Investor during the Period.   Financial ·      The underlying administration expenses of £ 375,583 are lower than the previous period of £414,306. This decrease is primarily due to share-based payment expenses of £ 71,614 (Q1 2025: £92,809), and legal and professional fees of £144,024 (Q1 2025: £167,096). ·      The consolidated loss before tax increased in the Period to £ 536,816 (Q1 2025: £423,349). This increase is primarily due to a loss on conversion of the convertible loan of £124,217 (Q1 2025: £Nil). ·      The consolidated basic and diluted loss per share from continuing and discontinued operations for the quarter ended 31 March 2026 was 0.95 pence (Q1 2025: loss of 1.16 pence). ·      £87,100 in cash was held at 31 March 2026 (31 March 2025: £668,926). ·      Exploration assets decreased to £ 15,455,048 at 31 March 2026 compared to £16,763,811 at 31 March 2025. This is due to Vardar exploration assets of £3,608,012 being classified as held for sale as at 31 March 2026. During the Period to 31 March 2026, there were additions of £96,436 and foreign currency losses of £83,732. ·      The cumulative translation losses held in equity increased by £80,796 in the quarter ended 31 March 2026 to £995,547 (31 December 2025: £914,571 ). Much of the Company's exploration costs are in Swedish Krona which has weakened against the pound since 31 December 2025. ·      At 31 March 2026, the Company had 63,703,707 Ordinary Shares in issue of which 47,179,151 were Swedish Depository Receipts representing 74% of the issued share capital of the Company. The remaining issued share capital of the Company is held in the UK as AIM securities.   Post Period ·      Following the end of the Period, the Company received a further conversion notice for a total of £50,000 resulting in the issue of 1,000,000 shares to the Investor. ·      As detailed above, the consortium led by Jokkmokk Iron decided to withdraw from the EIT funding programme and advance the NordicPipe project independently. The consortium concluded that the project's key objectives can be achieved more efficiently, with greater flexibility, and with a lower overall cost and administrative burden independently from the EIT programme. ·      In April, Grafintec participated in the Power Coast Summit in the municipality of Kotka, visited the Keltakallio industrial site and hosted public meetings at its two graphite projects, Aitolampi and Rääpysjärvi, in Eastern Finland. ·      The engagement with Alternative Resource Capital as Joint Broker was terminated after the end of the Period.   Current financial position As noted in its 24 April 2026 update, the Company is in advanced discussions in relation to a range of potential funding solutions and has received and is reviewing a number of proposals and term sheets. Discussions are at an advanced stage with a potential strategic investor and it is hoped that a definitive agreement can be reached within the coming weeks. The discussions remain non-binding at this stage and therefore, there can be no certainty that financing can be obtained or on the terms of any financing.   The Company, with support from its advisers, continues to manage its cash and creditor position and anticipates retaining sufficient cash to continue trading through the next few weeks while it seeks to finalise the strategic investment. The Board cautions that the Company now expects that it will need to secure additional financing by the middle of June in order to progress its projects and provide working capital for its operations.   Ed Bowie, Chief Executive Officer of Beowulf, commented:   "As work progresses at both Kallak and Grafintec, it is the critical focus of the Board to secure the long-term funding necessary to continue advancing our portfolio of assets. In respect to this, we hope to reach a definitive funding solution within the coming weeks and look forward to updating the market as and when appropriate."     Enquiries:   Beowulf Mining plc   Ed Bowie, Chief Executive Officer [email protected]     SP Angel   (Nominated Adviser & Broker)   Ewan Leggat / Stuart Gledhill / Adam Cowl Tel: +44 (0) 20 3470 0470     BlytheRay   Megan Ray / Rachael Brooks Tel: +44 (0) 20 7138 3204 [email protected]   Cautionary Statement   Statements and assumptions made in this document with respect to the Company's current plans, estimates, strategies and beliefs, and other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements about the future performance of Beowulf.

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 CO 2 emissions across the supply chain. The Company also holds a number of exploration assets including in Kosovo through its wholly owned subsidiary Vardar.

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.   2.    Basis of preparation   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 2024.   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 quarter ended 31 March 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 unaudited 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 April 2026 that it received and was reviewing a number of proposals and term sheets in relation to a range of funding solutions and in particular, the Company is in advanced discussions with a potential strategic investor.   While discussions are progressing, there are currently no definitive agreements in place and there is no certainty that the funds will be raised within the appropriate timeframe. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant 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 will continue to explore funding opportunities at both asset and corporate levels. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that funding will be forthcoming based on their past experience 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.                     3.    Finance costs       (Unaudited) (Unaudited and restated) (Unaudited)   3 months 3 months 12 months   ended ended ended Group 31 March 2026 31 March 2025 31 December 2025   £ £ £ Bridging loan amortised interest 45 3,853 1,915 Lease liability interest 254 669 52,251 Convertible loan - interest 36,731 - 6,600 37,030 4,522 60,766       (Unaudited) (Unaudited and restated) (Unaudited)   3 months 3 months 12 months   ended ended ended Company 31 March 2026 31 March 2025 31 December 2025   £ £ £ Bridging loan amortised interest - 3,853 52,086 Convertible loan - interest 36,731 - 6,600 36,731 3,853 58,686   4.    Other income   (Unaudited) (Unaudited and restated) (Unaudited) 3 months 3 months 12 months ended ended ended 31 March 2026 31 March 2025 31 December 2025 £ £ £ Other income - - 16,793 - - 16,793     5.    Loss per share     (Unaudited) (Unaudited and restated) (Unaudited)   3 months 3 months 12 months   ended ended ended Group 31 March 2026 31 March 2025 31 December 2025 Loss for the period/year attributable to shareholders of the Company: From continuing operations (£'s) (536,816) (423,349) (1,655,082) From discontinued operations (£'s) (26,957) (26,927) (124,919) Weighted average number of ordinary shares 59,657,866 38,844,790 52,396,161 Loss per share: From continuing operations (p) (0.90) (1.09) (3.16) From discontinued operations (p) (0.05) (0.07) (0.24) Company Loss for the period/year attributable to shareholders of the Company (£'s) (494,789) (403,591) (1,686,143) Weighted average number of ordinary shares 59,657,866 38,844,790 52,396,161 Loss per share (p) (0.83) (1.04) (3.22)   6.    Share capital   (Unaudited) (Unaudited) (Unaudited) As at 31 March 2026 As at 31 March 2025 As at 31 December 2025 £ £ £ Allotted, issued and fully paid Ordinary shares of 5p each 3,185,185 1,942,240 2,982,893 Deferred A shares of 0.9p each 10,414,687 10,414,687 10,414,687 Total 13,599,872 12,356,927 13,397,580   The number of shares in issue was as follows:     Number of ordinary shares   Balance at 1 January 2025 38,844,790 Issued during the period - Balance at 31 March 2025 38,844,790 Issued during the period 20,813,076 Balance at 31 December 2025 59,657,866 Issued during the period 4,045,841 Balance at 31 March 2026 63,703,707                                             The shares issued during the period were as a result of conversion of the CLN (see note 7).   Number of deferred A shares Balance at 1 January 2025 - Issued during the period 1,157,187,463 Balance at 31 March 2025 1,157,187,463 Issued during the period - Balance at 31 December 2025 1,157,187,463 Issued during the period - Balance at 31 March 2026 1,157,187,463   7.    Convertible loan notes   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:   -       Component 1 is the obligation to not repay the CLN in cash and is recognised as a non-derivative financial liability and therefore measured at amortised cost. -       Component 2 is recognised as the option to convert the CLN into Conversion Shares. This is a derivative, as the number of conversion shares varies based on the share price. The fixed-for-fixed criteria is not met and therefore the conversion option does not meet the definition of equity. The conversion option is therefore a derivative liability accounted for at fair value through profit or loss. -       Component 3 is the option to convert the warrants into a fixed number of ordinary shares at a fixed price. This component is therefore classified as equity.   Convertible loan debt Convertible loan derivative Convertible loan equity Total £ £ £ £ At 1 January 2025 - - - - Principal 337,487 91,750 70,763 500,000 Cost of issue (10,129) (2,754) (2,123) (15,006) Interest 6,600 - - 6,600 At 31 December 2025 333,958 88,996 68,640 491,594 Interest 36,731 - - 36,731 Fair value movement - (36,509) - (36,509) Conversion (181,937) - - (181,937) At 31 March 2026 188,752 52,487 68,640 309,879   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.       8.    Share based payments   During the Period, there were no options granted (Q1 2025: Nil; year ended 31 December 2025: 2,272,000). The options outstanding as at 31 March 2026 have an exercise price in the range of 12 pence to 262.50 pence (31 December 2025: 12 pence to 262.5 pence) and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 8 years, 77 days (31 December 2025: 8 years, 158 days).   The share-based payment expense for the options for the period ended 31 March 2026 was £71,614 (Q1 2025: £92,808; 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:   2024 2024 2024 2023 2022 2022 Fair value at grant date 24p 25.5p 15p 26p 179.5p 156p Share price 35p 36.5p 35p 84p 200p 200p Exercise price 37.5p 37.5p 37.5p 103p 50p 262.5p Expected volatility 77.5% 79.9% 77.5% 55.2% 100.0% 100.0% Expected option life 6 years 6 years 2 years 2.5 years 5 years 6 years Contractual option life 10 years 10 years 10 years 5 years 10 years 10 years Risk free interest rate 4.080% 4.100% 4.480% 4.800% 4.520% 4.480%     Reconciliation of options in issue Number Weighted average exercise price (£'s) Outstanding at 1 January 2025 3,170,000 0.65 Granted during the period 2,272,000 0.12 Outstanding at 31 December 2025 5,442,000 0.43 Exercisable at 31 December 2025 1,543,333 0.94   Reconciliation of options in issue Number Weighted average exercise price (£'s) Outstanding at 1 January 2026 5,442,000 0.65 Outstanding at 31 March 2026 5,442,000 0.43 Exercisable at 31 March 2026 1,543,333 0.94   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).     9.    Intangible Assets: Group     Exploration assets Other intangible assets   Total         £  £ £ Cost As at 31 December 2025 (Unaudited) 14,627,273 746,030 15,373,303 As at 31 March 2026 (Unaudited) 14,639,977 815,071 15,455,048   Exploration costs (Unaudited) (Unaudited)   As at 31 March       2026 As at 31 December 2025   £ £ Cost Opening balance  14,627,273 15,521,317 Additions for the period/year 96,436 1,260,152   Foreign exchange movements (83,732) 1,448,902 Impairment - (12,397) Reclassified as held for sale - (3,590,701) Closing balance 14,639,977 14,627,273   The net book value of exploration costs is comprised of expenditure on the following projects:     (Unaudited) (Unaudited)   As at 31 March   2026 As at 31 December 2025   £ £ Project Country Kallak Sweden 12,587,401 12,590,319 Pitkäjärvi Finland 1,759,027 1,749,466 Rääpysjärvi Finland 229,414 224,097 Luopioinen Finland 11,167 10,431 Emas Finland 52,968 52,960 14,639,977 14,627,273   Total Group exploration costs of £ 14,639,977 a re 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 31 March 2026 as an intangible exploration licence with a carrying value of £ 12,587,401 (31 December 2025: £ 12,590,320 ). Given the Exploitation Concession was awarded, Management have considered 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 31 March 2026 (see note 10).   Other intangible assets (Unaudited) As at 31 March 2026 (Unaudited) As at 31 December   2025    £ £ Cost At 1 January  746,030 501,705 Additions for the period/year 67,025 225,618 Grant income received - (12,750) Foreign exchange movements 2,016 31,457 Total 815,071 746,030   Other intangible assets capitalised are development costs incurred following the feasibility of GAMP project. This development has attained a stage where it satisfies the requirements of IAS 38 to be recognised as an intangible asset whereby it has the potential to be completed and used, provide future economic benefits, whereby its costs can be measured reliably and there is the intention and ability to complete. The development costs will be held at cost less impairment until the completion of the GAMP project at which stage they will be transferred to the value of the Plant.   10.  Discontinued operations   On 26 November 2025, the Company announced it had received a non-binding cash offer of €4,000,000 (approx. £3,495,465) for its 100% interest in Vardar. Completion of the offer is contingent upon the satisfactory outcome of the due diligence process. Based on the information available at the reporting date, the Directors were not aware of any issues that would prevent a satisfactory conclusion.   In accordance with IFRS 5, the results of Vardar are presented within discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss (for which the comparative statements and related notes have been restated). The net assets of Vardar have been reclassified as assets and liabilities held for sale. As at 31 March 2026, the net book value of Vardar's net assets of £3,530,349 (31 December 2025: £3,525,450) is higher than the non-binding cash offer of £3,495,465 (31 December 2025: £3,493,028) and therefore an impairment of £4,897 (31 December 2025: £32,423) has been recognised in the statement of profit or loss.   The investment in Vardar of £3,373,818 and the intercompany loan receivable of £337,958 (31 December 2025: £364,441) have been classified as held for sale in the Company's statement of financial position.   11.  Borrowings     (Unaudited) (Unaudited) Group and Company As at 31 March   2026 As at 31 December 2025   £ £ Current Convertible loan notes - debt 188,752 333,958 Total borrowings 188,752 333,958   12.  Post balance sheet events   On 23 April 2026, the Company announced it had received notice to convert a further £50,000 of the outstanding balance of the unsecured convertible loan notes into 1,000,000 ordinary shares of the Company.   13.  Availability of interim report   A copy of these results will be made available for inspection at the Company's registered office during normal business hours on any weekday.
