Open Letter to Sportech Limited Shareholders

Dear Shareholder, 26 October 2026

H1 2026 Interim Results – Half Time Scorecard

We are pleased to provide shareholders with an update on Sportech Limited’s performance for the six months ended 30 June 2026 and the progress of our digital transformation.

H1 2026 marked the start of our digital build-out with the launch of the new MyWinners.com platform on 27 January 2026. We exited the loss-making Sports Haven and opened our blueprint East Haven off-track betting venue in December 2025. The result has been revenue growth in key areas, improving margins, and a business firmly on a digital transformation journey.

Headline Financial Performance (unaudited)

• Revenue of £9.9m (H1 2025: £11.0m), reflecting the Sports Haven exit, licensing closure of south American region, and a weaker US dollar.

• Gross margin improved by 2.7 points to 57.5% (H1 2025: 54.8%).

• Adjusted EBITDA up 17% to £0.90m (H1 2025: £0.77m), with margin expanding to 9.1% (from 7.1%).

• Loss before tax reduced to £0.16m (H1 2025: £0.26m, or £0.41m excluding a one-off credit).

• Cash of £2.4m with no external borrowings (31 December 2025: £2.2m).

CT Venues continue to carry the Group, with Venues EBITDA up 15% in US$ (10% in GBP). Sports betting commission rose 21% to $1.74m driven by a better hold (GGR) and increased online commissions. Digital share of pari-mutuel handle was 28% in H1 (FY 2025: 23%), rising to 30% through Q3.

The new MyWinners platform is live for Connecticut and out-of-state customers, delivering racing, games, contests and jackpots in one app. The new East Haven has added meaningful handle, with the important US Triple Crown horse racing, handle growing 10% to $4.82m.

Looking ahead, our H2 Playbook focuses on four cornerstones:

1. optimising costs through technology and AI enhancements,
2. accelerating the digital transformation,
3. geographic expansion beyond Connecticut, primarily focused on B2C opportunities, and
4. enhanced business planning and agility with improved analytical capabilities.

Current FY26 Adjusted EBITDA guidance is £1.6–£1.7m (+30% vs 2025).

The bottom line is a leaner, higher-margin business led by a growing digital channel. Investment in our technology stack and brand marketing is expected to yield further growth.

Your Board is focused on progressing Sportech’ s business and we appreciate your continued support.

Yours sincerely,

Richard McGuire

Chairman

TALLY CENTRAL LTD

("Tally Central", "TAL" or the "Company")

Activities & Objectives 2026 - end of Q3 Update

Tally Central Ltd (TAL: JPJ), the money innovator and operator of the Tally full-reserve physical gold monetary system and gold currency: tally®, is pleased to update shareholders about the Company's activities for the third quarter of 2026. 

Tally Central's platform technology and infrastructure enables the UK public to use sound money in an easy access savings account with a TallyMoney debit Mastercard®, and provides transparent and inexpensive gold ownership, with real-time liquidity for payments.  Every unit of tally (the currency, spelt with a lowercase 't') is 1 milligram of ethically sourced physical gold, priced at the gold spot price, from London Bullion Market Association (LBMA)-accredited brokers and vaulted in Switzerland on behalf of Tally customers with LBMA-accredited high security storage provider, Brinks®.  Tally's standalone monetary system operates independently to the debt-based fiat-currency banking system but seamlessly works with the funds transfers and merchant payments infrastructure.  Tally is the first in the world to offer individual customer IBANs (International Bank Account Number) to access a currency that is not issued by a government.

Cameron Parry, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "The Company continues to pursue its path to profitability.  

Q3 saw a jump in customer acquisition due to going live with additional digital advertising channels, including The Mike Graham Show and other channels hosted on UK Live. We are pursuing further targeted marketing strategies in Q4 that should increase revenues further by the end of the year.

Over the quarter we continued with the development of new consumer applications and the primary new consumer product released in Q3 was that of TallyMoney Business Accounts for UK SMEs.

During the quarter the Company divested its remaining holding in BSE-listed Deccan Gold Mines Limited to supplement working capital and development and marketing activities.

During Q3, Tally incorporated a new wholly owned subsidiary, Tally EMI Ltd, as the vehicle to make application for its own EMI (Electronic Money Institution) licence with the UK Financial Conduct Authority, to add to the group structure and capability in 2027 and beyond.

The Company is continuing its corporate objective to achieve profitability of the core business in the UK and then assess where best to IPO on a public stock market in 2027 or 2028, in the UK or US respectively.  We are also completing integration with WorldPay for card acquiring and push-to-card payments, which will enable additional paths to market, for overseas jurisdictions in the new year."

ROCKSTEADY COFFEE COMPANY LIMITED

Brown’s Hall Achieves Jamaican Retail Target and Secures Key Canadian Regulatory Approval

Rocksteady Coffee Company Limited ("Rocksteady" or the "Company") is pleased to announce two important milestones in the commercial development of Brown’s Hall Coffee Liqueur, a premium Jamaican coffee liqueur crafted using Rocksteady’s single-estate 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee, premium Jamaican rum and natural Jamaican sugar cane.

The Company has achieved its initial Jamaican retail onboarding target ahead of the first full production run and advanced its Canadian market entry strategy through the granting of a key regulatory licence.

Jamaican Retail Expansion

The Company previously established a target of onboarding seven retailers in Jamaica ahead of Brown’s Hall’s first full production run, scheduled for November 2026.

Rocksteady is pleased to confirm that this target has now been achieved, with seven retailers onboarded in preparation for the product’s commercial rollout.

This milestone represents an important step in establishing Brown’s Hall’s domestic retail presence and reflects the Company’s strategy of developing distribution channels ahead of production.

Canadian Market Development – Key Regulatory Milestone

Rocksteady has also made significant progress in advancing the Canadian market entry strategy for Brown’s Hall Coffee Liqueur.

The Company is pleased to confirm that Forbes Holdings Management Inc., its Canadian market representative, has been granted a two-year Licence to Represent a Manufacturer by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).

This represents a critical regulatory milestone in establishing the framework required to introduce Brown’s Hall to the Ontario market.

The licence provides an important regulatory foundation for Forbes Holdings Management Inc. to represent Brown’s Hall in Ontario and advance discussions with prospective retail and distribution partners.

With this milestone achieved, the focus now turns to progressing the remaining product listing, importation and commercial requirements necessary to establish Brown’s Hall in the Canadian market.

Founder Commentary

O. Ricardo Forbes, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, commented:

“From the outset, we established clear commercial milestones for Brown’s Hall, including onboarding seven retailers in Jamaica ahead of our first full production run. I am pleased that we have achieved that target.

“Our progress in Canada is equally significant. Through Forbes Holdings Management Inc., we have secured a two-year Licence to Represent a Manufacturer from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario. This is a critical regulatory milestone in our Canadian market entry strategy and provides an important foundation for advancing discussions with prospective retail partners.

“These developments reflect our approach to building the business methodically, aligning production, regulatory readiness and market access as we introduce Brown’s Hall to new markets.”

Since building some of the UK’s first wind turbines in the late ‘90s’ Thrive has built and funded over 48 clean energy projects, playing a significant part in the UK’s net zero transition. To date, these projects have saved over 1.1 million tonnes of carbon emissions over the life of the business.

Delivering on our mission – putting money to work building new clean energy projects and empowering people to take action to address the climate emergency – means that our positive contribution to avoiding UK carbon emissions far outweighs our own carbon footprint. However it is important to report on and reduce carbon emissions that are made in construction and operations. 

Thrive’s latest climate report shows another year of good progress on our path to reaching net zero emissions by 2030. Let’s dive into some of the highlights…

Emission reductions are the emissions ‘avoided’ from the operation of our portfolio of clean energy projects (also referred to as scope 4). 2022 and 2024 were both very successful years for project construction and in both years our reported emissions include the construction footprint of three new projects. 

We are pleased to have achieved full scope 3 reporting for a fourth year, with the carbon intensity of our day-to-day services decreasing by around 14% when comparing 2025 to the base year 2022. This is encouraging to see and is supported by the decarbonisation stories we have heard through our supplier engagement – see below.

Case study: electric vehicle use by contractors

Our annual contractor engagement continues to encourage positive discussions on how to reduce emissions in our industry. In 2025, one asset manager cut travel emissions 66% by adopting EVs for 81% of their travel to Thrive’s sites, compared with 100% diesel fleet in 2024. Whilst requiring further planning to journeys to ensure the charges are kept in range, they managed to implement a significant step in the decarbonisation journey. 

It is also positive to see that the emissions intensity of the electricity imported to BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) projects has dropped by 38% from 2022 to 2025, putting us on track for this target area.

Trains continue to comprise the majority of our business miles travelled in 2025, with the carbon intensity of our average business mile now 40% lower than when we first started reporting on this in 2019. 

Although not directly relevant to Thrive’s own reported emissions, we encourage our employees to reduce their own personal greenhouse gas footprints as well. For example, Thrive offers the ‘Sustainable Travel Leave’ benefit which rewards staff with paid journey days when opting for slower, greener options for their holiday travel.

We are also currently looking to implement low carbon materials, such as using green steel, on new projects in our pipeline.

RGH Saudi LLC has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Taiba High Training Institutes Company, represented by the MPS Initiative, whose ambition is to train and support the employment of Saudi national men and women.

The MPS Initiative prepares Saudi nationals for employment through specialised diploma programmes designed around the needs of the labour market.

The agreement brings together Taiba’s education and training experience with RGH Saudi’s workforce expertise, powered by Epitome Global. Epitome’s platform maps skills and professional profiles, identifies gaps within existing capabilities and workforce needs, and helps match people to roles based on skills, values, motivations and fit.

The new MoU establishes a framework for the organisations to work together across areas including training and qualifications, professional profiles, recruitment and employment, and learning management.

Together, these capabilities can create a clearer link between the training people receive, the skills employers need and the roles available in the Saudi labour market.

The focus is on Saudi talent

The agreement comes as Saudi Arabia focuses on developing national talent and creating employment opportunities for Saudi nationals.

Under Vision 2030, the Kingdom’s Human Capability Development Programme identifies closer alignment between education and labour-market needs as a priority, including greater emphasis on vocational education, practical experience and skills development.

Saudization is also increasing the focus on national talent across the private sector, with Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development continuing to introduce measures aimed at increasing the participation of Saudi men and women in the labour market.

Building RGH’s presence in Saudi Arabia

Based in Riyadh and part of Resource Group Holdings Plc, RGH Saudi continues to build its presence in the Kingdom. The agreement with Taiba High Training Institutes Company marks another step in the Group’s development in Saudi Arabia and the wider Middle East.

ENDS 

In the first half of 2026 Thrive’s portfolio of wind, solar and hydro projects generated 69,589 MWh of clean electricity [1], enough to power over 41,000 homes [2] – that’s a town the size of Barnsley [3]. In total the portfolio delivered emissions reductions equivalent to over 31,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide [4]. Operating profit was £1.8 million on a revenue of £10.3 million. Read more in our half year report.

Progress with new projects

In the first half of the year, United Downs geothermal power plant – which Thrive is invested in – delivered the UK’s first ever geothermal electricity. Meanwhile, construction of our biggest project yet – a 57MW onshore wind farm in Scotland – is nearly complete. The project, which is due to start generating later this year, will power the equivalent of around 45,000 average UK homes a year. We can’t wait to see the blades start spinning soon!

Development of our 12.6MW wind farm in South Wales is also progressing well, with construction expected to commence next year. Elsewhere, in Orkney, new milestones have been reached in our plans to repower Burgar Hill. A planning application has been submitted to replace five existing turbines with newer, larger and more productive models and we have acquired two of the existing turbines from the previous owner, RWE.

Enhancing nature

As well as generating clean electricity, it’s important that our renewable energy projects are having a positive impact on nature. Dunmow solar farm in Essex, which we co-own alongside TopCashback Group Ltd, has become one of the first sites in the UK to become Wild Power certified. A bit like a fair-trade stamp for your coffee, Wild Power certification is a biodiversity stamp for solar farms, recognising our commitment to conserving and enhancing nature on site. Since acquiring the 10MW solar farm in 2025, we’ve introduced a range of biodiversity measures to ensure the project provides a haven for local wildlife to thrive as well as generating clean electricity.

“Wild Power certification reflects Thrive’s commitment to going above and beyond minimum requirements at Dunmow to deliver a truly nature friendly renewable energy project. We commend Thrive for their efforts and we hope that this achievement will inspire others to follow, contributing to Wild Power’s mission to make it easy and viable for nature to thrive at renewable energy sites.” - Joe Arafa, Director of Wild Power

In May our operations team spent a productive couple of days on site at Dunmow preparing soil berms (raised areas of soil) for the creation of a new wildflower-rich grassland habitat that will benefit a range of wildlife – from birds and butterflies to badgers and hares.

Collaborative funding

All capital from the Fair Play Clean Energy partnership with TopCashback Group Ltd has either been deployed or is ready to be invested, funding 79.6MW of new renewable capacity. Meanwhile, the first project to be funded by Community Energy Catalyst, our £40 million joint venture with social impact investor, Better Society Capital, is now operational. The Attix CIC community turbine in Kilbirnie will help bring vital funds back into the local community.

Thrive has also secured new project finance, injecting a total £64 million to fund our growing portfolio. This includes debt funding from Investment Manager Triple Point to support the construction of Whitelaw Brae, and a £4.1 million loan from Triodos Bank UK for Dunmow solar farm, helping refinance shareholder capital already invested in the project and enabling it to be redeployed into future renewable energy developments.

£5 million was invested by individuals in our 2026 bond offer, plus a further £2 million from institutional and high net worth impact investors to fund new clean energy projects. In total, we’ve now raised over £70 million for new renewable energy projects, the majority via crowdfunding.





[1 ]Refers to Thrive’s impact portfolio – total electricity generation of the portfolio adjusted for Thrive’s proportion of ownership, plus the projects Thrive is funding.

[2] Calculated using the most recent statistics from the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) showing that UK average domestic household consumption is 3,323kWh per annum (1,662kWh for a half year).

[3] Average residents per household 2.36 (ONS Link) Population of Barnsley is 98,924 (ONS Link)

[4] Carbon reduction is calculated by multiplying the total amount of renewable electricity generated by Thrive’s impact portfolio in the first half of 2026 by the number of tonnes of carbon which fossil fuels would have produced to generate the same amount of electricity. We have used DESNZ’s “all non-renewable fuels” emissions statistic of 422 tonnes of carbon dioxide per GWh of electricity supplied from the Digest of UK Energy Statistics (July 2026) Table 5.14 (“Estimated carbon dioxide emissions from electricity supplied”). Additionally, we include a conservative estimate of the carbon saved through operating our BESS projects.
