Acquisitions Highlights

·      The Acquisitions comprises of 5 agrivoltaic solar energy development projects located in the Piedmont region of Italy, with a combined installed capacity of approximately 30 MWp.

·      The Company expects the Acquisitions will all achieve 'Ready-to-Build' status within the next 12-16 months.

·      The consideration for the Acquisitions is EUR 3,100,000, which includes the purchase of the land hosting the Acquisitions, and will be payable conditional to the achievement of all the necessary permits to achieve 'Ready-to-Build' status.

Zenith's Solar Energy Portfolio now includes:

·      Liguria Solar Asset: 0.5 MWp (Operational, currently producing at 0.2 MWp).

·      Puglia Solar Asset: 3 MWp (Ready-to-Build).

·      Agrivoltaic Development Project in Piedmont: 7 MWp (Development Stage).

·      Agrivoltaic Development Project in Lazio: 10 MWp (Development Stage).

Following additional due diligence, the Company has elected not to exercise the exclusive option for the Ready-to-Build projects located in Lazio, Italy, for a combined total of 2 MWp, announced on May 30, 2025.

Andrea Cattaneo, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"We are delighted to announce the Acquisitions, representing our largest solar energy acquisition to date.

In the space of only six months, our team, working closely with legal and technical consultants, has built a diversified portfolio exceeding 50 MWp, laying the foundations for the Company's long-term future of revenue generation and profitability.

Zenith now holds a significantly expanded and diversified portfolio of solar assets spanning operational, ready-to-build, and development stage.

It is our intention to continue expanding the portfolio in a sustained manner, with the opportunity of strategically partnering, in respect of specific larger development assets, with major utility companies to balance our financing requirements.

Alongside the technical and legal due diligence, our efforts have also been concentrated on financing the development of the portfolio we have created. To this end, we are in advanced discussions with specialised lenders in the renewables industry who will provide the necessary funding for the construction of the infrastructure."
