New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: €8.84m (US$9.58m) This is considered a major risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shares are highly illiquid. Negative equity (-€146k). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 4.0% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m (€535k revenue, or US$580k). Market cap is less than US$10m (€8.84m market cap, or US$9.58m). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (€8.5m net loss in 2 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.1% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Oct 10
New major risk - Negative shareholders equity The company has negative equity. Total equity: -€146k This is considered a major risk. Being in negative equity means that the company's liabilities exceed its assets, meaning it owes more to creditors than it has in owned assets. While this doesn't mean the company is about to collapse, in the long-term, this is unsustainable. The company may have issues meeting financial obligations, is at risk of becoming insolvent and may have difficulty raising capital, especially more debt, if needed. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Shares are highly illiquid. Negative equity (-€146k). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 4.0% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m (€535k revenue, or US$585k). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (€8.5m net loss in 2 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.1% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (€24.0m market cap, or US$26.2m). Board Change • Aug 13

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.2% 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 Risks Shares are highly illiquid. Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 4.7% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (€9.5m net loss in 2 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.2% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (€33.2m market cap, or US$36.1m). Tillkännagivande • May 12

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 6.0% per year for the foreseeable future. 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 expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. 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 Shares are highly illiquid. Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 6.0% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (€9.5m net loss in 2 years). Market cap is less than US$100m (€36.9m market cap, or US$39.3m).

Global Bioenergies SA Completes REWOFUEL Project Global Bioenergies SA announced the end of the REWOFUEL project, which ran from 1 June 2018 to 30 June 2022. This project brought together several European industries such as Repsol, Sekab and Fibenol, with the objective of demonstrating the conversion of wood residues into sustainable high-performance components for road and aviation fuels,and thus participate to the decarbonization efforts of ground and air transportation. The project was coordinated by Global Bioenergies and received €13.8 million in funding from the European Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. For this project, sugars from wood were supplied by Sekab and Fibenol. These sugars were then processed into high performance sustainable biofuels. As a result, batches of bio-isooctane, bio-ETBE and sustainable aviation fuel have been produced by Global Bioenergies and then tested by Repsol, Spain’s leading oil company. Batches of sustainable aviation fuel were produced and transferred to SkyNRG, leader in the sustainable aviation fuel industry. Significant work has been coordinated by SkyNRG for the certification of these isobutene derivatives as a sustainable aviation fuel. Meanwhile, by-products from the ligneous part of wood chips have been incorporated by Peab into successfully implemented bitumen products. Producing bitumen with a better environmental footprint will help to optimise overall road transport performance. The proteins resulting from fermentation are intended to be used in animal feed. The experiments conducted by Metex NoovistaGo in this respect have produced positive results. Finally, the Energie Institut JKU has carried out life cycle analyses of the various segments of this value chain and has quantified the reduction in CO2 emissions according to different configurations, which can lead to savings of up to 85% compared to the benchmark fossil solution. Meanwhile, engineering efforts have been conducted by Neste, Technip-FMC, and IPSB, a French engineering company specialized in agribusinesses. Breakeven Date Change • Mar 06

Global Bioenergies Announces New Molecule for the Greening of C5 Chemistry Global Bioenergies has developed a process for converting plant resources into isobutene, one of the main building blocks of chemistry, whose derivatives are used in cosmetics, fine chemicals, commodities and fuels. A production unit is currently under construction in Pomacle to serve high value-added markets. One of the intermediates in the isobutene synthesis pathway is of industrial interest: this 5-carbon intermediate, prenic acid, is also known as “methyl-crotonic acid”, “dimethyl-acrylic acid” and “senecic acid” (CAS 541-47-9). Its two chemical functions (acid and vinyl) allow it to be used in a multitude of compounds that are currently derived from petroleum and used most notably in flavours, perfumes and food additives. A non-exhaustive overview of the prenic acid product tree is available on the Technology page of the Global Bioenergies website: it illustrates the range of products and domains accessible from this molecule.

Instrumental tests and clinical studies demonstrate performance on a par with the best conventional products on the market: this is the first time a brand with over 90% natural ingredients has delivered such a performance. Independent laboratories conducted numerous instrumental tests and clinical tolerance and use studies on the products. The performance of the range was compared to leading products on the market in terms of hold, water resistance, level of transfer, sensory qualities and pleasure of application. The results demonstrate 24-hour hold, waterproofness and low-transfer property for each of the product categories. Tests conducted over a long period (21 days) under dermatological and ophthalmological supervision validated tolerance to use. The products’ sensory qualities were also highly appreciated: for example, after blind testing, 85% of women said they would like to continue using LAST eye shadow and would recommend it to their friends, considering that, independently of naturalness, the product is equivalent to or better than their usual eye shadow.
