New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 18% This is considered a minor 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: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (10% average weekly change).

Circus SE Secures Core Technologies Through Six New Defense Patents Circus SE announced the filing of six groundbreaking patents in the fields of defense and autonomous AI robotics. The intellectual property covers core technologies of the company's proprietary autonomous AI robot system CA-M, specifically engineered for operation in security-critical and military environments. The newly filed patents encompass multiple aspects of autonomous food preparation of the company's developed AI robot CA-M. With these filings, Circus positions itself as a pioneer in dual-use robotics, where culinary automation converges with defense-grade technologies. With these patents, Circus reinforces its transformation from an early AI robotics innovator into a strategic deep-tech company operating at the intersection of artificial intelligence, automation, and defense infrastructure. The goal is to secure a leading position in the emerging market for autonomous support systems across NATO and allied forces. In the defense domain, these patents establish significant competitive barriers for new entrants, allowing Circus to deploy protected technology while forcing competitors to develop alternatives - often costlier or less efficient - solutions. This provides the company with critical time to build market share and set technological standards. Following the successful grant of its core technology patent for the CA-1 AI robot in April 2025, these six additional filings mark Circus' entry into a phase of comprehensive intellectual property protection. The company's clear objective is to establish an unassailable technological lead in AI-driven robotics within the global defense market. Major Estimate Revision • Sep 23

Circus SE Receives NATO Approval for Defense Contracts and Multinational Procurement Programs Circus SE has been officially listed by the NSPA, qualifying Circus as a certified supplier for NATO and its member nations. This certification marks a significant expansion of Circus' defense sector presence and grants access to NATO-wide defense, logistics, and crisis response programs. The company is now eligible for major defense programs and will appear alongside trusted global suppliers such as Lockheed Martin, Renk, and Rheinmetall, used by procurement officials across the NATO alliance. Inclusion in the regulated NSPA supplier registers is the formal prerequisite for participation in NATO procurement tenders and direct contract awards as the registration is only open to companies with a significant presence in the relevant field. It allows Circus SE to take part in defense procurement programs and supply contracts issued annually by the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) as the first registered provider of fully autonomous systems like CA-1 and CA-M powered by AI-robotics. The certification verifies that Circus meets NATO's security, quality, and financial requirements including AQAP and relevant ISO standards and will simplify future contracts via the Alliance's digital procurement systems. As NATO procurement increasingly prioritizes technology-driven and autonomous solutions, Circus is particularly well positioned to benefit from the fast growing defense market. Building on its recent U.S. government and Department of Defense supplier approval, the NATO listing positions Circus as a reliable, rapidly deployable partner for AI-powered nutrition systems in field operations, exercises, and emergency missions.

Circus SE Introduces AI-Robot for Defense Operations Circus SE introduced the CA-M, the world's first autonomous meal supply AI-robot developed specifically for defense forces operating in high-risk territory and beyond traditional supply lines. With modern military operations facing increasingly complex supply chain challenges, limited meal access, outdated nutrition standards, and the vulnerability of static field kitchens in high-risk zones, the CA-M delivers a breakthrough with fully autonomous, on-demand meal production under extreme operational conditions. By eliminating the dependency on traditional field kitchens and minimizing supply chain personnel in hostile environments, the CA-M redefines how armed forces sustain themselves during operations. The launch of CA-M marks the second product in Circus' AI-robot line, arriving shortly after the company's start of serial manufacturing for its CA-1 AI-robotic system. Built on the same patented technology as its civilian version CA-1, the CA-M extends the core capabilities into an outdoor, ruggedized format engineered for frontline use. Engineered for rapid deployment and operational agility, the CA-M is embedded in a 20- foot container, ensuring seamless mobility across military logistics networks and operates autonomously through CircusOS--Circus' AI-native operating system. Designed for extreme environments, it significantly reduces the need for human involvement in food preparation and distribution by leveraging robotics and minimal external dependencies. With off-grid features and onboard capacity for ingredients to prepare over 1,000 fresh meals per load, the CA-M ensures autonomous operations even in highly dynamic or remote conditions. Active negotiations are underway with multiple NATO-aligned and allied defense forces for initial field deployments. A CA-M evaluation unit is available for classified demonstrations in Munich, Germany, and can be booked via the Circus Group website. Announcement • Apr 18
