New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: S$2.1m This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-S$2.9m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (37% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 25% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (S$2.1m sold). Revenue is less than US$5m (S$1.6m revenue, or US$1.2m). Market cap is less than US$100m (S$36.5m market cap, or US$28.5m). New Risk • Nov 15

New major risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been substantially diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 43% 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.

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.

Ascent Bridge Limited Provides Group Earnings Guidance for the Fifteen Months Ended March 31, 2023 Ascent Bridge Limited provided group earnings guidance for the fifteen months ended March 31, 2023. The Board of Directors of Ascent Bridge Limited announced that, following a preliminary review of the unaudited consolidated financial results for fifteen (15) months on the financial period ended 31 March 2023, the Group is expected to report loss for full year 2023. The losses were mainly due to: Sales of Moutai Bulao products in the USA began only in late September 2022 due to a prolonged process of brand and pricing registration in various states. The Group had to go through the necessary steps and approvals required by each state to register the brand and establish pricing for the products. This registration process, which can vary from state to state, took a significant amount of time, causing delays in the launch of Moutai Bulao products in the US market. As a result, sales were only able to commence in late September 2022. In FY2023, the Group managed to complete brand and pricing registration in New York, California, New Jersey and Florida, and currently in the process for Georgia and Nevada. In FY2023, sales agreements were signed with distributors in Cambodia, Vietnam, Netherland and Croatia (cover 26 Schengen countries), however, full payment is pending as the distributors are working on obtaining local regulatory approvals for importation and distribution, as well as finalisation of marketing programs between the parties to ensure a more effective product rollout. Consequently, the Group's sales contribution in FY2023 is lower than expected. The non-recurring transaction costs incurred for acquiring MTBL Global group and the proposed acquisition of 80% equity interest in Octopus Distribution Pte Ltd. and 80% equity interest in Nereus Cape Pte Ltd. and 39.2% equity interest in Luen Heng F&B Sdn Bhd (collectively called "Octopus Group").
