Dear Shareholders,

Herewith we are presenting our audited consolidated financial report for FY2024 and 4Q FY2024, ended 30th June 2024. This was the year of the successful realization of our new business strategy.

Transferring operational activities to the European Union, using the knowledge and competence of the management staff in the search for and extraction of minerals other than coal are the most important elements of the new strategy.

Coal mining business remained negatively affected by on-going war in Ukraine, and mining operational activities were ceased. Thus, for the second half of FY2024 operating and financial results of the Company represented by new business segment – providing mining services to coal mining companies in Poland.

Summarized highlights of the 4Q FY2023 and FY2024 are presented below:

• Revenue from service activities amounted to US\$2,466 thousand for the FY2024 and US\$1,235 thousand for the 4Q FY2024 representing consistent growth q-o-q.
• EBITDA. For the FY2024 the Company recorded negative EBITDA of US\$559 thousand as compared to US\$440 thousand of negative EBITDA in the FY2023. For the 4Q FY2024 negative EBITDA amounted to US\$885 thousand representing a decline from the positive EBITDA of US\$256 thousand for the 3Q FY2024. This decrease was primarily driven by losses incurred from foreign exchange rate differences on operational transactions, along with impairments of financial assets.

Despite all challenges in 2024FY we have continued to adhere to our long-term strategic objectives. We remain committed to identifying and capitalizing on emerging opportunities to ensure sustainable growth and create value for our shareholders in the years ahead.

With best regards, Viktor Vyshnevetskyy Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer

Business overview

Coal Energy S.A. (hereinafter "Coal Energy" or "the Company" or "the Group") incorporated in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a holding company for a group of 6 companies operating in the mining industry (as of the day of publication of this report). In July 2011 the Group placed 25% of its shares on the Warsaw Stock Exchange via initial public offering.

The Company's principal business in FY2024 was providing mining services to Europen companies. The war in Ukraine and the location of the Company's mine in the fighting area make it practically impossible for the Company to conduct mining and commercial activities. Therefore, in accordance with the decision adopted by the Management Board, the Company plans to use the intellectual potential and its employees to conduct business abroad.

In December 2023 the Company has signed an agreement on acquisition of 100% of shares of ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES Sp. z o.o. - company registered in Katowice, Poland. ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES Sp. z o.o. was established in 2018 and provides underground mining services to coal mines in Poland.

In January 2024 ADVANCED INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES Sp. z o.o. (Poland) jointly with DSB GROUP Sp. z o.o. have incorporated GREENTECH SOLUTIONS Sp. z o.o. in Poland. The authorized capital of the new Company is 100 000 PLN, each party holds 50% share. The main activity of the new company will be the reclamation and processing of industrial rock dumps and mine waste dumps, as well as the reclamation of lands disturbed by man-made activities.

Our markets (based on available statistical and media information)

Global Coal Demand and Trade Dynamics

In 2024, the global coal market continues to experience variability due to geopolitical tensions and shifting energy policies. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), while coal demand remains strong due to ongoing energy security concerns, there is a visible trend toward stabilization as markets adjust to the new geopolitical landscape. Western countries' sanctions on Russian coal remain in effect, and alternative supply sources within the EU have become more prominent. The EU continues to diversify its energy mix, reducing reliance on coal, which aligns with broader decarbonization efforts.

Coal Mining in Ukraine

The Ukrainian coal industry persists under significant strain from war. However, production resilience is evident as the sector adapts to ongoing hostilities and logistic challenges. Despite war conditions, state-owned mines have sustained production improvements, assuring energy security via domestic supplies and strategic stockpiling.

Impact on Ukrainian Economy

Ukraine's economic landscape shows signs of gradual recovery. The National Bank of Ukraine projected GDP growth for 2024 at 3.7%, showcasing resilience amid adversity. Increased budget expenditures, an effective sea corridor for exports, and a high adaptability quotient within industries underpin this growth. Nevertheless, power outages and hostilities due to continued military actions challenged manufacturing and energy sectors.

Regional Service Operations in the EU

Poland remains one of the largest coal producers and consumers within the European Union, with significant domestic coal reserves, particularly for thermal coal used in power generation and industry. It is important to note that restrictions and policy measures primarily target energy coal as part of the EU's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and shift towards cleaner energy sources. In contrast, coking coal (metallurgical coal), which is vital for steel manufacturing, is included in the EU's list of critical raw materials, highlighting its strategic importance for the industrial sector.

The Polish government has committed to a just transition plan that balances energy security and decarbonization, aiming to gradually reduce coal dependence by 2040 while maintaining strategic reserves as an energy security measure. This transition opens opportunities for the ongoing modernization of coal mining operations, environmental upgrades, and infrastructure development, creating a demand for specialized mining and environmental services.

Looking Ahead

While the IEA indicates that global coal demand will soon peak, our strategic focus remains on adaptability and operational optimization. Real-cost inflation, heightened by geopolitical and market conditions, requires dynamic responses. Enhancing logistic capabilities and exploring new partnerships within the EU will be pivotal in 2024.

People

In FY2024, the Group employed an average of 100 employees (weighted average headcount), reflecting a significant increase of 112.8% year-on-year. This growth aligns with the development of our new business segment, supported by expanding operational needs to serve our evolving business objectives and market opportunities.

Financial overview

The Company's operations were adversely impacted by the ongoing full-scale hostilities and invasion by the Russian Federation during the first half of FY2024. However, in the second half of FY2024, positive influence from the development of our new business segment in Poland contributed to improved performance. The following table provides a summary of the Group's key indicators for FY2024 and FY2023 (all figures are rounded):

Revenue

For FY2024, total revenue amounted to US\$2,466 thousand, compared to US\$760 thousand in FY2023, representing a substantial year-on-year increase. This growth reflects the successful launch of our new business segment — mining services for coal mining companies in Europe. Additionally, in 4Q FY2024, revenue reached US\$1,235 thousand, confirming positive quarterover-quarter dynamics.

In the FY2024 the Company generated revenues from service activities:

Services rendered are represented by mining works related to the reconstruction of existing thirdparty coal mines, installation of appropriate repair kits, works on strengthening of inclined planes, excavation of new lines and other mining works related to maintenance of coal mines.

Gross loss/profit

The Company recorded a gross profit of US\$788 thousand for FY2024, compared to a gross loss of US\$136 thousand in FY2023. The improvement was primarily driven by the successful launch of our new services segment, which contributed significantly to revenue and profitability. In 4Q FY2024, gross profit amounted to US\$362 thousand, slightly declining from US\$397 thousand in 3Q FY2024 quarter-over-quarter.

Operating profit/ loss

For the FY2024 the Company recorded operating loss of US\$559 thousand, as opposed to US\$589 thousand of loss for the FY2023 reflecting considerable foreign exchange losses and increased administrative expenses. For the 4Q FY2024 operating loss amounted to US\$885 thousand versus US256 thousand of profit for the 3Q FY2024 due to foreign exchange losses and impairment of financial assets.

Financial costs

For FY2024 financial costs composed US\$665 thousand decreasing y-o-y as opposed to US\$768 thousand for the FY2023 and represent expenses on restructuring loans.

Net loss / profit

The Company recorded a net loss of US\$2,130 thousand for FY2024, compared to a net loss of US\$13,690 thousand in FY2023. The significant reduction in net loss was primarily due to the discontinuation of its main operational activities in the first half of FY2024 amidst ongoing war circumstances. For Q4 FY2024, the Company reported a loss of US\$1,765 thousand, compared to US\$476 thousand in Q3 FY2024. The increase in losses for the quarter was mainly due to additional corporate income tax accruals related to one of the assets.

Risks and uncertainties

The Company's financial performance is dependent on the global price of and demand for coal

The Company's business is dependent on the global market price of coal. Sale prices and volumes in the worldwide coal market depend predominantly on the prevailing and expected levels of demand for and supply of coal, mainly from energy and steel manufacturers. But the

company's financial results will increasingly depend on the situation on the coal market in the countries where the company will operate. In general, European countries are taking steps to slowly move away from coal mining, but at the same time, more and more attention is being paid to the extraction of other minerals that may also be of interest to the Company.

The Company's costs and technologies applied by the Company may increase

The Company's main expenses are salaries and consumables. Due to the company's new strategy, which provides for the transfer of operations abroad, it is expected that there will be additional costs related to starting operations in new markets, acquiring new entities and acquiring customers.

The Company's activity may be impacted by limited banking financing of its project

The Company's operations and growth initiatives could be significantly impacted by constrained access to banking financing for its projects. Such limitations in financing could restrict the Company's ability to fully implement its planned investment program, which is critical for achieving the strategic targets and ensuring the long-term sustainability of its business activities.

To continue funding its development plans at the levels required, the Company will need to seek alternative sources of external finance. These may include a broader range of financial instruments and capital-raising opportunities available to publicly listed companies, such as issuing bonds, equity or debt offerings in the capital markets, private placements, or seeking financing through international financial institutions and development agencies.

The Company can mitigate this risk by exploring alternative external financing options and utilizing other financial instruments available to publicly listed companies, such as equity or debt offerings, bond issuance, or government grants, to secure the necessary capital.

Corporate Governance

The Company has decided to observe the majority of the WSE Corporate Governance Rules included in the Code of Best Practice for WSE Listed Companies to the form and extent determined by the Resolution No. 13/1834/2021 of the Exchange Supervisory Board dated 29 March 2021. However, certain principles apply to the Company accordingly, with due observance of Luxembourg corporate law and the Company's corporate structure, especially the single board structure as opposed to the two-tier system that the WSE Corporate Governance Rules assume. The Company does not have two separate governing bodies (supervisory board and management board) which are obligatory in Polish joint stock companies. Instead, the Board of Directors of the Company performs both the management and supervisory functions. As a result, the Company applies those principles of the WSE Corporate Governance Rules which refer to relations between supervisory board and management board not directly, but accordingly. In all cases, the Company endeavours to create procedures maintaining the spirit of all rules applied accordingly. Therefore, the Company is of an opinion that it complies with the rules that refer to relations between supervisory board and management board or to the functioning of those bodies.
