This performance was underpinned by improved drilling contract productivity, continued momentum from MSALABS and solid execution across our mining services contracts. \n On the back of a strong H1, we are pleased to announce an increase in our 2026 Group revenue guidance to $430 - $450 million (from $410 - $440 million). \n We secured several important, long-term contract awards across drilling and laboratory services, including a new long-term contract with Maaden. At the same time, we discontinued drilling operations at Sadiola and Nevada Gold Mines, reallocating capital and equipment to markets where we see stronger demand and better long-term returns. \n Our mining contracts at Reko Diq and Sukari continue to perform well. While recent commentary from Barrick noted a slowdown in capital expenditure at Reko Diq, Capital remains a well-established key contractor at the project and will continue to support its development going forward. \n MSALABS continues to build on its momentum, with commissioning of new laboratories, increasing utilisation and improving margins. Its growing geographic footprint, customer and commodity diversification continue to broaden the Group's service offering. \n We remain confident in the Group's outlook as we mobilise into several new contracts, with robust industry demand and attractive growth opportunities present across all divisions. We are pleased to declare an interim dividend of 1.3 cents per share, reflecting our continued focus on delivering value to shareholders.\" \n Financial Overview \n · H1 2026 revenue of $219.0 million, up 37.6% on H1 2025 ($159.2 million); \n · H1 2026 Adjusted EBITDA of $54.7 million, an increase of 70.4% on H1 2025 ($32.1 million) with H1 2026 Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 25.0% (H1 2025: 20.2%); \n · H1 2026 Operational NPAT of $15.5 million, an increase of 638.1% on H1 2025 ($2.1 million); \n · H1 2026 Adjusted Cash from Operations of $41.4 million, a 24.3% decrease on H1 2025 ($54.7 million) partly driven by an unfavourable working capital position at the end of the period, some of which is expected to normalise in H2 2026; \n · H1 2026 Capex of $24.1 million (H1 2025: $20.4 million) including prepayments and assets financed by OEM; \n · Net debt at H1 2026 of $43.3 million decreased 21.8% on H1 2025 ($55.4 million), predominantly as a result of higher Adjusted EBITDA, offset by unfavourable working capital movements and net purchases in the investment portfolio; and \n · Declared an interim dividend of 1.3 cents per share, to be paid on 5 October 2026 to shareholders registered on 28 August 2026. \n Operational Review \n · Safety performance remains strong with a Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (\"TRIFR\") of 1.2 per 1,000,000 hours worked in H1 2026 (H1 2025: 0.8). \n Capital Drilling \n · Total rig count decreased to 131 by the end of H1 2026 (FY 2025: 137), as rigs were decommissioned as part of the withdrawal from NGM and Sadiola; \n · H1 2026 average rig utilisation was 71%, down from 74% in H1 2025.

A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. \n As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with UK adopted international accounting standards. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with UK adopted International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting. \n Conclusions relating to going concern \n Based on our review procedures, which are less extensive than those performed in an audit as described in the Basis for conclusion section of this report, nothing has come to our attention to suggest that the directors have inappropriately adopted the going concern basis of accounting or that the directors have identified material uncertainties relating to going concern that are not appropriately disclosed. \n This conclusion is based on the review procedures performed in accordance with ISRE (UK) 2410, however future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern. \n Responsibilities of directors \n The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority. \n In preparing the half-yearly financial report, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group 's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. \n \n INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO CAPITAL LIMITED \n \n Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the financial information \n In reviewing the half-yearly report, we are responsible for expressing to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report. Our conclusion, including our Conclusions Relating to Going Concern, are based on procedures that are less extensive than audit procedures, as described in the Basis for Conclusion paragraph of this report. \n Use of our report \n Our report has been prepared in accordance with the terms of our engagement to assist the Company in meeting the requirements of the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority and for no other purpose. No person is entitled to rely on this report unless such a person is a person entitled to rely upon this report by virtue of and for the purpose of our terms of engagement or has been expressly authorised to do so by our prior written consent.

This condensed interim report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an Annual Report. They should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in the Group's Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2025 which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (\"IFRS\") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (\"IASB\"). The Interim Financial Statements have been reviewed in terms of International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 2410. \n \n The Group Annual Financial Statements are presented in United States Dollars, which is also the Group's functional currency. Amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Accounting policies \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n All accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation which have been followed in these Interim Financial Statements were applied in the preparation of the Group's financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025. \n \n No new standards or amendments have been issued that are relevant to the Group. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS recognition and measurement principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management reviews its estimates on an on-going basis using currently available information. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results could differ from those estimates. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Going concern \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n As at 30 June 2026, the Group had a robust balance sheet with a modest debt gearing with equity of US$408.8 million and loans and borrowings of US$91.4 million. Cash as at 30 June 2026 was US$48.1 million, with net debt of US$43.3 million. Investments in listed entities at the end of June 2026 amounted to US$116.5 million which provided additional flexibility as these investments could be converted into cash. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n This robustness is underpinned by stable revenues generated on long term contracts. Revenues generated on mine sites and longer-term contracts make up the majority of Group revenues. The Group achieved strong revenues and margins during the half, contributing to a positive outlook for the remainder of the year and beyond. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Commercially, the Group continues to secure and extend long term mining contracts with high-quality customers, including the latest significant contract awards with Fortescue at its Belinga Iron Ore Project in Gabon and a multi-site exploration drilling contract with Maaden in Saudi Arabia. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n CAPITAL LIMITED \n NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT'D) \n \n \n \n \n For the six months ended 30 June 2026 \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 1. \n \n \n Basis of presentation and accounting policies \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Going concern (cont'd) \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n In determining the going concern status of the business, the Board has reviewed the Group's forecasts for the 18 months to December 2027, including both forecast liquidity and covenant measurements. In the assessment, management took into consideration the principal risks of the business that are most relevant to the going concern assessment and reverse stressed the forecast model to identify the magnitude of sensitivity required to cause a breach in covenants or risk the going concern of the business, alongside the Group's capacity to mitigate. The most relevant sensitivity was considered to be a decrease in EBITDA through loss of contracts, with no redeployment of equipment. EBITDA would need to fall over 47% during the period of assessment for going concern to breach the covenant test. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Given the strong market demand from existing high-quality clients, majority of revenue earned from mine-site customers, a healthy tendering pipeline, increased customer base and limited contract expiries during the year, management considers a decrease of such magnitude to be remote. \n \n Based on its assessment of the forecasts, principal risks and uncertainties and mitigating actions considered available to the Group (holding back dividends, sale of investments, capex deferral) in the event of downside scenarios, the Board confirms that it is satisfied the Group will be able to continue to operate and meet its liabilities as they fall due over the going concern period to December 2027. Accordingly, the Board has concluded that the going concern basis in the preparation of the Financial Statements is appropriate and that there are no material uncertainties that would cast doubt on that basis of preparation. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n 2. \n \n \n Operations in the interim period \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Capital Ltd is incorporated in Bermuda.
