Aztech Global Launches its New Line of Vision Technology Products Under Kyla Brand to Meet Growing Market Demand Aztech Global Ltd. announced the launch of its vision technology line of products to meet the growing demand for high quality images. Marketed under its "Kyla" brand, the Group has tapped on its rich data communication, IoT, engineering and manufacturing capabilities that it has accumulated over many years to launch its vision technology portfolio comprising IP Camera & Surveillance Systems, Bodywear Cameras and Digital Microscopes. Available first in Singapore from September 2023, the two (2) new vision technology products, namely Power-Over-Ethernet Internet Protocol (IP) CCTV and Digital Microscope will expand to international markets by the end of 2023. The full list of products to be released comprise the following: 2MP, 4MP, 8MP Bullet & Dome PoE IP Camera (Indoor & outdoor variations). 4CH, 8CH, 16CH & 32CH Network Video Recorder (NVR). Digital Microscope. Growing Market Demands for IP CCTV Technology A common concern raised by camera users is the inconsistency in displaying high-resolution video footages which often stems from the use of analogue CCTV cameras. The installation process is also widely regarded as expensive due to the complex installation and cabling process. The introduction of Kyla's IP CCTV technology ensures crystal clear high-definition (HD) video footages and images and wider compatibility with web-based applications (ONVIF and Linux Supported). Remote viewing and live-detection alerts on mobile and web apps are also made possible, allowing users monitor their premises anytime and anywhere. Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology is widely favoured today for their convenience and ease of use they plug into ethernet ports and draw electricity and connect to the internet over the same ethernet cable. Unpacking these PoE benefits into Kyla IP CCTV, users can streamline the entire installation process to be more cost-effective with no special wiring and power cabling needed. Complex IP configurations can also be avoided when connecting to Network Video Recorders. The long-standing issues with traditional microscopes lie in their inability to be used for prolonged periods and hefty price tags. Users can only squint their eyes and focus through the lens for a short while before facing fatigue issues. Better quality microscopes with comprehensive lens that can deliver higher magnification levels often come with hefty price tags too. Kyla Digital Microscope enters the fray by allowing users to conveniently observe samples through their tablets and smartphones at 4K resolution and enjoy high magnification levels of up to 1000x at an affordable price. This allows even more users to explore the microscopic world, ranging from workers and specialists from the electronics, watch or jewellery industries all the way to students in schools observing plant and insect samples. An added advantage is that Kyla Digital Microscope comes with an app with easy editing and sharing functions. Users can also add micrometry to measure lengths, diameters, and angles of samples if needed. Upcoming Dividend • Jul 24

New major risk - Earnings quality The company has a high level of non-cash earnings. Accrual ratio: 70% This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk High level of non-cash earnings (70% accrual ratio). Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by cash flows (387% cash payout ratio). Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (8.0% net profit margin). Announcement • Jul 23
