Emmerson plc Announces Step Down of Directors Emmerson PLC announced that James Kelly (Non-Executive Chairman) and Rupert Joy (Non-Executive Director) will both step down from the Board of Directors, with immediate effect. New Risk • Oct 21
New major risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$10m. Market cap: €9.23m (US$9.98m) 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 Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$4.2m free cash flow). Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (54% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 19% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Market cap is less than US$10m (€9.23m market cap, or US$9.98m). Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (11% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Sep 27
New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -US$4.2m This is considered a major risk. With less than a year's worth of cash, the company will need to raise capital or take on debt unless its cash flows improve. This would dilute existing shareholders or increase balance sheet risk.

New minor risk - Financial data availability The company's latest financial reports are more than 6 months old. Last reported fiscal period ended June 2023. This is considered a minor risk. If the company has not reported its earnings on time, it may have been delayed due to audit problems or it may be finding it difficult to reconcile its accounts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (24% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 16% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Latest financial reports are more than 6 months old (reported June 2023 fiscal period end).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 12% 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 Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (28% average weekly change). Earnings have declined by 16% per year over the past 5 years. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (12% increase in shares outstanding).

Emmerson plc Announces the Results of an In-Depth Scoping Study on A New, Innovative Processing Route At Its 100% Owned Khemisset Potash Project Emmerson PLC announced the results of an in-depth scoping study on a new, innovative processing route (the "Scoping Study") at its 100% owned Khemisset Potash Project ("Khemisset" or the "Project"), which significantly reduces the Project's environmental impact and enhances its economic returns. The Scoping Study describes a new process, the Khemisset Multi-mineral Process which was developed by Emmerson for use in the Khemisset potash project in Morocco. In addition, slow-release products provide the nutrients when the plant requires them, allowing farmers to use less fertiliser and to apply less frequently. Morocco is already a global fertiliser hub, so the ability to add not only potash but also these additional magnesium and iron phosphate products to its nutrient portfolio will enhance its position as a global agriculture and fertiliser lead, in particular on the African continent. On this basis, no changes are necessary to the mining plan or mine access requirements as set out in the 2020 Feasibility Study. The KMP plant would also produce new fertiliser products that would enhance Morocco's credentials as a fertiliser hub and help address food security issues. New Risk • Jul 07

Emmerson PLC Provides Operational Update on Khemisset Potash Project Emmerson PLC provided an update on progress at its world class Khemisset potash project ("the Project") in Morocco. Overview: The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) submission has progressed towards the final assessment stage and the Company has provided all information that has been requested by the Moroccan authorities subsequent to the last update. Decline alignment drilling underway, to be followed by further deep drilling for detailed mine design. Land acquisition programme advancing with relevant owners and stakeholders identified. The land acquisition process is being finalised with the Moroccan authorities. SOP feasibility study is ongoing, led by Barr Engineering. Continued progress in building the project delivery team ahead of the construction phase - key Project Engineer role expected to be filled shortly. Significant progress made with developing the project execution plan - constructive engagement potential engineering and EPCM partners. Strategic investor and project debt financing process advancing positively. Global potash prices have increased significantly with spot prices above those used in the Project feasibility study, underlining the value of the Khemisset project. Permitting and Licencing: The team has completed various submissions to government agencies including, the water authority, l'Agence du Bassin Hydraulique de Sebou, Regional Department of Environment, Regional Department of Forestry, and Regional Centre of Investment. The water authority discussions necessitated the production of an additional study, adding time to the permitting process that was not envisaged earlier in the year. The company says that all parties are currently satisfied with the thorough supplementary work and the final meeting with the Environmental Evaluation Committee ("EEC") (referred to in Morocco as the "Commission Regionale Unifiée de l'Investissement"), should take place in due course. A total of 17 research permits outside of the mining licence block were due for renewal and renewal decisions have been received for 10 of these research permits, with seven still pending. These permits are not immediately critical for the Project, but the team will seek renewals as a matter of course. Tillkännagivande • Jun 25
Emmerson plc Provides an Update on Progress Made At Its World Class Khemisset Potash Project in Morocco Emmerson plc provided an update on progress made at its world class Khemisset Potash Project in Morocco during the first six months of 2021. Having completed the baseline and all the workstreams required for Environmental and Social Impact Assessment for the Project, the study was submitted in Fourth Quarter 2020 for review by the Environmental Evaluation Committee. The ESIA package comprises a full Project baseline study built over two years, the ESIA report, and the Environmental and Social Monitoring Program. The package covers the Project underground works and surface installation, external infrastructure such as powerlines, highway access, and raw water intake. The review meeting with the EEC was held in December 2020 where valuable advice and guidance was given by the committee members to better prepare for the evaluation meeting. The EEC comprises the relevant Government stakeholders in the Project including the Ministry of Energy and Mines, Regional Department of the Environment, and the water agency. Following the positive feedback of the review meeting, the month-long Public Consultation phase was launched covering the three local communes where the Project installations are planned. No concerns or objections were recorded by the local population. This is a reflection on the social license to operate that the Project team has been building amongst the local communities as they support the Project to become a catalyst for socio-economic development. In parallel with this, the Company has been following up with the relevant Government entities to prepare for the evaluation meeting. Complementary technical work was carried out and shared with some of these entities. This comprised of the following: Water agency: Improvement of the water intake scheme by changing the intake installation to the newly commissioned Ouljet Es-Soltane dam instead of the Oued Beht river. The Ouljet Es-Soltane dam is upstream of the Project site by some 20km and presents a more reliable and sustainable water supply option. The Company completed a scoping level study and a specific baseline study covering the intake installation and the pipeline design prior to integrating this infrastructure into the ESIA package. Additional engineering detail on the Tailings Storage Facility including scenario analysis for risk management and mitigation was completed by Golder Associates to the standard required by the Government agencies. This study presents design fundamentals which are based on the most stringent international standards that are applicable to such installations and shows accordingly the very low risk associated with its design contemplated and assesses possible mitigation strategies that could be implemented. Department of Environment: Supplementary work on the Deep Well Injection plan was completed by local engineering consultants Sigma Plus. The results were shared with the Department of Environment to give more confidence in and demonstrate the sustainability advantage of the approach as compared with the traditional methods for brine management. The Company has completed all significant items in the process previously outlined, all in compliance with best international relevant standards, and is now awaiting the confirmation for the evaluation meeting with the EEC, following which the ESIA approval will be granted. Emmerson is committed to developing the Project in accordance with the health, safety, and environmental standards, all the ESIA workstreams are therefore scoped and completed in compliance with Moroccan legislation while being topped up to levels of rigour as required by International Finance Corporation ("IFC") Performance Standards and the Equator Principles. Applications for renewal have been lodged for the remaining research permits that were not part of the Mining Licence area with a positive outcome expected in Third Quarter 2021. A significant amount of geological work has been completed including the re-processing and interpretation of two seismic lines, undertaken by consultants, to provide better quality data for the wider understanding of the general structures in the vicinity of the declines and early mining area. The local team has also undertaken additional core logging and mapping to provide further data for refining various geological plans and maps. In addition to this, supplementary work has been completed on the DWI plan, resulting in a report that is being used for ongoing discussions with the authorities regarding this key area of the Project. To mitigate risks identified in the FS, a new geological investigation campaign has been scoped and commenced. This work is split into two sections. Firstly, surface geological investigations will focus on geotechnical and geophysical data gathering to feed into the detail design for the surface infrastructure and the tailing storage facility. Secondly, a series of deeper holes are to be drilled along the line of the decline, one of which is to be extended to provide data for the DWI, and two holes with offsets are to be drilled into the orebody in the early mining blocks. These will serve as data points for mine access engineering design and mine design while giving more confidence on suitability of the targeted formations for DWI. Work relating to the technical aspects of the Project design and engineering has been completed to address risks from the FS, provide detail to support wider project development and commence more comprehensive work to take the Project towards construction readiness. Additional ventilation modelling has also been undertaken; this was a vital piece of work and the modelling confirmed that the air quantities required for effective ventilation need to increase, with the provision of vent raises necessary to achieve this. Additionally, the modelling confirmed that air cooling will be necessary from the early years of operation. The detailed design can now take these modifications into account. The Company has engaged with numerous engineering companies to assess potential partners for the basic and detailed engineering for the Project. A request for proposal has been issued with regards to the MOP process facility basic engineering, and a preferred partner selected. Final negotiations are taking place with a view to commencing engineering soon. Further to this, discussions continue with a Moroccan engineering company to support the development of a contracting strategy and project execution. Other notable advances include completing cuttability tests on core samples of salt and basalt to inform the detail design and planning of the decline construction. The Company is also holding discussions with several renewable energy providers resulting in a supply option in addition to the current memorandum of understanding. Executive Departure • Apr 30

Emmerson PLC Announces Phased Development and Expansion Assessment Emmerson Plc, announced that it is in the process of assessing a conceptual, staged, development for its 100% owned Khemisset Potash Project ("Khemisset" or "the Project"), aimed at reducing upfront capital costs and incorporating expansion options into the development plan of the Project. Emmerson recently received the Mining Licence for Khemisset providing the Company with the exclusive right to develop and mine the potash deposit, in the Khemisset basin ahead of the anticipated initiation of construction by the end of 2021. Updated development strategy to fast-track salt sales expansion, SOP development and MOP expansion utilising the total resource at Khemisset. Increase salt sales to up to 4Mtpa. Incorporate SOP as part of the larger project development. Increase MOP production by up to 50%. Increase mine life. Building on the Feasibility Study, the Company will complete a concept study examining the potential to develop Khemisset using a stage approach, reducing upfront capital costs and execution risk, while also planning out additional stages of expansion for the Project to ensure that its economic value is fully developed. Due to the relatively lower levels of fixed capital cost, the Company believes that Khemisset could benefit from a staged development approach. The Company will examine the technical and economic viability of initially constructing a project that mines at approximately half the rate assumed in the Feasibility Study. This could materially reduce the upfront capital cost of the Project, lowering financing and execution risk. Following this phase 1 development the project will then run through several expansion phases. During the Feasibility Study, the Company confirmed its ability to manufacture significant quantities of de-icing salt and designed the Project to produce 1Mtpa for sale into the US market. Following the completion of the Feasibility Study, Emmerson has continued to assess the market opportunity for de-icing salt and has concluded that there is likely to be a much larger market opportunity for this product. The Company intends to scope the cost to increase salt sales to up to 4Mtpa. In November 2019, the Company completed a Scoping Study to assess the viability of converting 25% of its MOP to produce 240ktpa of SOP. With the continuing strength of the US SOP market, the Company is looking to accelerate the development of the SOP Project to take advantage of this strength and to improve diversity of end product and revenue.
