Coinbase Strategic Credit Facility
Following the Bitcoin purchase set out above, total drawings under the facility remain unchanged at £18,500,000, representing an approximate leverage ratio of 17%. The Company will continue to provide updates on any material drawdowns or repayments in future regulatory announcements.
The Company is also pleased to announce that the terms of the facility with Coinbase have been improved. The loan is secured against the Company’s existing Bitcoin holdings, carries a competitive variable interest rate of 6% (previously 6.75% to 7.25%), and is repayable without additional charges at the Company’s discretion.
The Company also announces that 3,300,000 ordinary shares of £0.001 nominal value each (the "Ordinary Shares") have been placed in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreement announced on 24 December 2025 (the “Subscription Shares”).
The gross proceeds from the placing of the Subscription Shares will be £1,016,250 (before expenses), equivalent to approximately £0.31 per share, and the Company will receive approximately 98.25% of the proceeds as settlement. The balance of Ordinary Shares not yet placed pursuant to the Subscription Agreement is 44,149,230.
Institutional-Grade Custody
As a corporate holder of Bitcoin, the Company endeavours to engage institutional-grade custodians in its efforts to safeguard its treasury assets.
The Company does not self-custody its Bitcoin. Instead, its holdings are secured through a select group of institutional-grade custodians chosen following ongoing assessment of factors including security, operational resilience, regulatory standards, service quality and overall commercial considerations. Each of the providers is subject to regulatory oversight in the jurisdiction in which it operates, including compliance with relevant anti-money laundering regulations.
While self-custody can be an appropriate solution for individuals with the necessary technical expertise, the Company believes that professionally managed institutional custody provides a robust framework for safeguarding treasury assets.
We recognise that recent events have highlighted the importance of robust custody arrangements and sympathise with those who have been impacted. Our custody strategy has always prioritised security, diversification across trusted providers, and institutional best practice.
For security reasons, the Company does not disclose the allocation of Bitcoin holdings between custodians. Allocations are reviewed and adjusted from time to time as part of the Company's ongoing risk management and treasury governance framework.
The Company's current custody providers are:
Coinbase Inc., Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC, and other Coinbase entities
Xapo Bank Limited
Fidelity Digital Assets Ltd
Anchorage Digital Bank National Association
Payward Financial, Inc. (d/b/a Kraken Financial)
