Tirupati Graphite plc

('Tirupati' or the 'Company')

Change of Name to Total Graphite Plc

Tirupati Graphite plc (TGR.L), the specialist flake graphite company and supplier of the critical mineral for the global energy transition, is pleased to announce that it has resolved for its name to be changed from Tirupati Graphite Plc to Total Graphite Plc ("Total Graphite"), as part of a Group-wide corporate rebrand.

By unanimous approval of the board in line with requirements under the the Articles of Association, this name change follows a Board review which concluded that revising the name better reflects the refreshed identity and mission of the Company following the restructuring and ongoing turnaround started in early 2025. The new brand reflects the Company's intended identity and mission to become a vertically-integrated, mine to product, producer of natural flake graphite derived products suitable for energy transition and industrial applications.

The Board believes that aligning the corporate name with the Group's intended trading identity and mission will enhance brand clarity, strengthen recognition across key markets, and support more effective engagement with both existing and prospective partners. This is expected to support the Group's long-term growth strategy, including expansion of flake graphite production in Madagascar, development of its world-class, large scale Mozambique flake graphite projects and of future value-added production of products further downstream the flake graphite value chain. This will ultimately support the need of international customers to secure access to the critical mineral, flake graphite, and diversify supply chains to underpin and support sustainable shareholder value creation.

The transition on product packaging will be managed organically, with updates implemented on a rolling basis as part of normal production cycles. This approach is expected to ensure minimal operational disruption and no material incremental cost to the Company.

The Company's TIDM code will remain "TGR". The name change procedure is underway with the name change certificate expected to be received by Companies House for processing today. The new Company name is therefore expected to become effective in the coming days, at which time, a separate announcement will be made by the Company. The ISIN and SEDOL will remain unchanged, and trading in the Company's shares will continue uninterrupted. The Company's legal entity, Board, management team and underlying business operations remain unchanged.
