New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 34% 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 (17% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 5.6% per year over the past 5 years. Shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year (34% increase in shares outstanding).

Minesto's Tidal Power Plant Dragon 12 in Operation Reaching Key Production Performance Milestone Minesto announced that its Dragon 12 tidal energy system (Luna), installed in Vestmannasund, Faroe Islands, has met a major production performance milestone: the longer tether enables a 25% increase of power performance. This strengthens the company's path toward commercial-scale deployment of its unique tidal kite technology. Following the recent upgrade and installation of the Dragon 12 (Luna) mid-May, Minesto concludes that the system has met performance expectations as simulations predict. Most significantly, based on a 10 meter longer tether, the power performance increase is around 25% relative earlier testing. This is expected from computer simulation predictions. These results further validate production volumes used in Minesto's business cases for commercial buildout in the Faroe Islands. In addition to Dragon 12 showcasing technical performance, the production site in Vestmanna continues to serve as a live demonstration platform. Recent visits from utility partners, energy ministries, and potential commercial customers have further positioned the site as a central reference case in the global marine energy landscape.

Minesto Has Successfully Executed the Launch & Recovery Method (LARS) for the First Megawatt Tidal Kite Dragon 12 Minesto has successfully executed the Launch & Recovery method (LARS) for the first megawatt tidal kite Dragon 12 (1.2 MW, 25 tons). The operations developed for the Dragon 4 (100kW, 2.5 tons) were proven equally effective with the large-scale kites utilizing the same small work vessel. The commissioning of the Launch and Recovery System (LARS) of the Dragon 12 has been successfully completed. The scale-up of the powerplant has not required changes in the smaller Dragon 4 kite operation for launch and recovery when applied to the Dragon 12. The D12 is ten times heavier, three times larger, uses a longer tether and is installed at larger water depth. These changes in the kite parameters proved to be fully manageable with the existing LARS method, thus verifying both technical method and assessments of operating costs. The launch and recovery were respectively done in less than 2 hours elapsed time. The commissioning of the Dragon 12 continues at site leading to the goal of electricity production. Operations of the smaller Dragon 4 power-plants will continue in parallel. Reported Earnings • Oct 20

Minesto Completes Build and Functional Testing of Sea-Bed Connection System for the 1.2-Megawatt Powerplant Dragon 12 Minesto has completed build and functional testing of sea-bed connection system for the 1.2-Megawatt power plant Dragon 12. The unique connection system, enabling one of the fastest launch and recovery operation in marine energy by "one-stab" operation, is now ready for installation. The Dragon 12 connection system is a scale-up and further enhancement of Minesto's unique and verified LARS (Launch & Recovery System) technology, a principle applied and proven by Minesto since 2020. The system is remotely operated and controlled from the surface vessel by lowering the LARS frame attached to the male connector into the female connector in the foundation. In the bottom joint, the power, data and strength connections are all combined. The process is cost-effective and safe: solely monitored by cameras on the frame, no diver, or Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) support is required. The Dragon 12 kite installation will utilise the system to enable a fast launch by towing with a small work boat and "one-stab" connection. New Risk • Aug 22
