Sirius Real Estate Limited Appoints Ian Watson as Independent Non-Executive Director and Nomination Committee Member, Effective February 11, 2026 Sirius Real Estate Limited announced that Ian Watson will join the Company’s Board of Directors as an Independent Non-Executive Director and a member of the Nomination Committee, with immediate effect. Ian Watson is one of the best known and most successful investors in the European industrial property market. His appointment strengthens the Board, adding over 30 years of highly relevant expertise in the sector in both European and UK markets, as well as extensive capital markets and transactional experience. Ian co-founded Ashtenne Holdings with Morgan Jones in 1989 to invest in UK regional multi-let industrial property. They floated the business in 1997 on the main market of the London Stock Exchange and over the next eight years as joint Chief Executives built up a portfolio worth around £750 million before selling it to Warner Estates and Anglo Irish Bank in 2005. The two of them subsequently co-founded and floated Hansteen Holdings on the AIM market in 2005 to apply Ashtenne’s model in Continental Europe, particularly in Germany and the Netherlands. In 2009, Hansteen moved back into the UK industrial market and listed on the main market of the LSE the same year. As joint Chief Executives, Ian and Morgan subsequently built Hansteen’s portfolio of industrial property to around €2 billion, before exiting the German and Netherlands assets for €1.28 billion in 2017 and selling the then primarily UK-focused listed business in 2020 for £500 million. Ian holds an MA in Law (Jurisprudence) from Oxford University and practised as a solicitor with Gouldens (now Jones Day). He joined Arlington Securities plc in 1986 before he left to form Ashtenne.

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: R2.8m 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 Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (14% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (R2.8m sold). Announcement • Mar 24

Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 6.3% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (15% operating cash flow to total debt). Earnings have declined by 6.3% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (28% increase in shares outstanding). Upcoming Dividend • Jun 19

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 15% 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: Major Risk Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (14% operating cash flow to total debt). Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings (169% payout ratio). Large one-off items impacting financial results.
