Total Graphite Temporarily Pauses Production At Vatomina Operation Total Graphite plc had production temporarily paused at its Vatomina operation while operational and geological workstreams, including drilling, mine planning, infrastructure upgrades and final plant optimisation work, are completed. Production restart above 1,000 MTs per month is targeted from December 2026, subject to drilling progress. The Board has concluded that obtaining additional geological information through a targeted drilling programme at Vatomina and updating the mine plan together with updating the Montepuez DFS represent the most effective use of capital at this stage of the Company's development. Production has therefore been temporarily suspended while these activities are completed, with the objective of reducing operational risk and establishing a more robust foundation for future operations. Following several months of operating experience and after an independent technical review, the Board concluded that additional geological information is required to refine mine planning and optimise future production. Accordingly, production has been temporarily paused while drilling, technical studies and optimisation activities are undertaken. The Board believes investing time and capital in completing these improvements will create substantially greater long-term shareholder value than continuing production before optimisation is complete.

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 450% This is considered a major risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (12% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 33% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (450% increase in shares outstanding).

Tirupati Graphite plc Provides Madagascar Operational Update Tirupati Graphite plc provided a progress update on its Madagascar operations. Vatomina Operations - July: The commissioning of the fourth PCU at the BK6 mine site was successfully completed on 31 July 2025; as at the end of July, the Vatomina operation had 4 working PCUs. Production for July 2025 was 221 MTs of sellable graphite. July saw significant unseasonal rainfall resulting in a loss of 17 days of mining operations. Sellable production totals 2,285 MTs since restart of operations in February 2025. The target of 1,000 MTs per month production rate was not achieved by end of July due to adverse weather and factors described below. It is now expected that this production rate will be achieved in October 2025. In addition to weather-related interruptions to mining operations, production was behind guidance due to the factors below; rectifications commenced before the end of July and will continue during August: o Installation of larger dryer, relocated from Sahamamy, delayed by adverse weather; Insufficient ore mined to supply PCUs at the required feed rate; Insufficient slurry feed provided from PCU to final processing plant ("FCU"); Non-availability of various spare parts in-country. Vatomina Operations - August Onward: Remedial measures and upgrades being implemented and planned for the remainder of 2025 include: The larger dryer installation is to be completed in the week commencing 18 August, which is expected to increase overall drying capacity to 4.5 tons per hour; A comprehensive re-supply shipment of spares for the mining fleet and process plant, and of necessary replacement and upgrade equipment, to optimise PCU and FCU processing rates will be delivered to site by the middle of September, and upgrades will be completed during October; Addition to the excavator fleet with a new excavator available at site from 16 August, with 60% higher capacity than the current excavator fleet and increasing the excavator fleet to five units; all to be operational from September post re-supply of spares. Ore stockpiling of one-month's Run-of-Mine ore to be maintained to mitigate future potential adverse weather disruptions to mining operations. These upgrades to the PCUs and FCU, and continuous ore sampling to support optimal ore recoveries should support the production of high quality finished product grading up to 96% fixed carbon. Guidance of 1500 MTs per month production rate by December 2025 remains in place. Evaluations for installation of double-deck vibratory screens at each PCU are underway to increase the throughput such that 1500 tons per month can be maintained. Ankündigung • Jul 16
