Background

The main purpose of the Capital Raise is to finance the continued development of the Kallak Iron Ore Project ("Kallak") and the Graphite Anode Materials Plant ("GAMP") and in particular advancing the Kallak Pre-feasibility Study ("PFS") and environmental permit application. Net proceeds from the Capital Raise will also be used to repay the SEK 10 million bridge loan financing and for general corporate and working capital purposes. The Capital Raise provides the Company with funding through to early 2026 and the board will continue to explore funding opportunities at both the asset and corporate levels.

Ed Bowie, Chief Executive Officer of Beowulf, commented:

"Concluding the Capital Raise enables Beowulf to continue to advance both Kallak and the GAMP. We have multiple workstreams building towards the completion of the Kallak PFS and environmental permitting application and at GAMP, following the successful conclusion of the PFS, we will begin preparing for pilot testing.

"Further funding to complete all the planned activities will be required and the Company continues to explore opportunities to attract strategic partners and investors, both at the corporate and asset level.

"I would like to thank existing and new shareholders for their support."
