Fortress Minerals Limited Approves Tax-Exempt (One-Tier) Final Dividend for the Financial Year Ended 28 February 2026 Fortress Minerals Limited announced that at the Annual General Meeting held on June 30, 2026 approved a tax-exempt (one-tier) final dividend of 0.472 Singapore cents per ordinary share for the financial year ended 28 February 2026. Declared Dividend • Jul 02
Dividend increased to S$0.0047 Dividend of S$0.0047 is 2.6% higher than last year. Ex-date: 6th August 2026 Payment date: 21st August 2026 Dividend yield will be 1.9%, which is lower than the industry average of 4.3%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is well covered by both earnings (18% earnings payout ratio) and cash flows (26% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 6.7% per year over the past 7 years. However, payments have been volatile during that time. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to decline by 80% to shift the payout ratio to a potentially unsustainable range, which is more than the 15% EPS decline seen over the last 5 years.

Revenue is forecast to grow 3.3% p.a. on average during the next 3 years, compared to a 11% growth forecast for the Metals and Mining industry in Asia. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 20% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 11% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings.

New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: S$128.2m (US$99.9m) This is considered a minor 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: Minor Risks Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Market cap is less than US$100m (S$128.2m market cap, or US$99.9m). Reported Earnings • Apr 30

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The company has an unstable dividend paying track record. The dividend has had an annual drop of over 20% in the past. Dividend yield: 1.8% This is considered a minor risk. If the company has cut or reduced its dividend in the past, it may be a sign that the underlying business is too cyclical to consistently maintain or grow the dividend over the long-term. It may also indicate the company prioritizes other outcomes instead of maintaining the dividend. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 2.1% per year for the foreseeable future.

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 2.1% 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. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Jan 09

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 9.5% 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 Risk Earnings have declined by 9.5% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (14% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (10% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (S$120.4m market cap, or US$93.3m). New Risk • Jun 03
New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 21% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (15% average weekly change). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (10% net profit margin). Market cap is less than US$100m (S$120.4m market cap, or US$93.5m).

Testing and commissioning of operations at CASB mine were completed in May 2022, with the commencement of production on 1 July 2022. The initial mining will take place in the oxide ore zone, focused on producing high grade iron ore. Local steel mills remain the key customer group for Fortress and the additional production capabilities in the same key mineral resource will help the Group realise synergies as it leverages existing downstream distribution lines. Fortress will also be able to better match customers' specific demands and plan its production between its two producing assets to drive cost savings and extract further efficiencies. This is especially important given the ongoing inflation of production overheads in the current operating environment. Reported Earnings • Jun 09
