Independent Auditor's Review Report On Semi-Annual Report

To the General Assembly of Forte Bilgi İletişim Teknolojileri ve Savunma Sanayi Anonim Şirketi

We have been assigned to the review whether the financial information in the review report of Forte Bilgi İletişim Teknolojileri ve Savunma Sanayi Anonim Şirketi (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (the "Group") prepared as of June 30, 2025 is consistent with the reviewed interim condensed financial information. Management is responsible for the preparation of the semi-annual report. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on whether the financial information provided in the semi-annual report is consistent with the reviewed interim condensed financial information on which we have expressed our conclusion dated August 14, 2025.

We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements ("SRE") 2410 "Review on Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". Our review includes the assessment as to whether the financial information included in the semi-annual report is consistent with the reviewed interim condensed financial statements and other explanatory notes. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Independent Auditing Standards, the objective of which is to express an opinion on the financial statements. Consequently, a review on the semi-annual financial information does not provide assurance that the audit firm will be aware of all significant matters which would have been identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to conclude that the accompanying financial information included in the review report is not consistent, in all material respects, with the interim financial information and the information presented in the explanatory notes to interim condensed financial statements.

ABOUT US

Cetwell is a brand operating with the aim of providing sustainable agricultural solutions and striving to be a pioneer in digital agriculture technologies. With the mission of enabling digital transformation in the agricultural sector, it offers farmers the opportunity to produce more efficiently and sustainably. Specializing in turnkey greenhouse projects, soilless farming applications, and digital agriculture technologies, Cetwell develops innovative solutions at every stage of agricultural activities. Focusing on the needs of the sector, it aims to increase productivity and optimize resource use. The solutions developed in line with the requirements of modern agriculture enable farmers to achieve higher yields with less resource consumption. Through the digital solutions it offers, Cetwell not only lightens the workload of producers but also prioritizes environmental sustainability. Technologies that save water and energy, intelligent management of greenhouse environments, and innovative approaches to efficient soil use allow farmers to maintain productive cultivation throughout the year.

By increasing agricultural productivity and spreading sustainable production techniques, Cetwell develops strategies that shape not only today's but also the future of agriculture. Based on a sustainability approach, the brand minimizes environmental impacts through its innovative stance in agricultural technologies, while providing producers with the ability to maintain uninterrupted production year-round. Especially as a leader in soilless farming and controlled irrigation systems, Cetwell combines technology and agriculture to create efficient and sustainable production processes. With this vision, it contributes to the future of agriculture while also pioneering global food security and environmentally friendly production methods.

The projects developed by Cetwell encourage innovation in agriculture by enhancing farmers' competitiveness and helping them transition to production processes equipped with modern agricultural practices. Particularly through turnkey greenhouse projects and digital management systems, it offers producers flexibility and efficiency, thereby promoting sustainable development in agriculture.

As Cetwell Bilgi Teknolojileri ve Zirai Sistemler Danışmanlık Hizmetleri A.Ş., we operate in a period where the impacts of the climate crisis on agricultural production are deepening day by day, and food supply security has become a strategic issue at both national and global levels. In this context, we approach modern greenhouse investments not only as an economic activity but also from the perspectives of social responsibility and sustainable development.

One of our fields of activity is greenhouse construction, focusing on agricultural structures supported by technological infrastructure that enable sustainable production throughout the year. The primary aim of these structures is to create controlled, efficient, and traceable production environments independent of external environmental conditions. At Cetwell, we do not limit our engineering and project development capabilities in this field to mere construction; rather, we position greenhouses as concrete areas where digitalization in agriculture materializes.

The greenhouses we establish incorporate advanced technologies such as automatic climate control, humidity and temperature regulation, irrigation and fertilization systems, LED lighting solutions, energy-efficient building materials, and digital control panels with remote monitoring capabilities. These infrastructures allow producers to achieve higher yields with fewer resources while supporting environmental sustainability.

Moreover, we offer a turnkey service model covering all processes from site selection, project design, engineering drawings, construction, field installation, to production transition support. This enables investors to quickly and seamlessly start greenhouse operations and integrate into the production chain without time or quality loss.

We do not limit our greenhouse projects to rural areas only; we diversify with nextgeneration applications such as urban agriculture, export-oriented production, social farming initiatives, and climate-resilient production models. Particularly, to facilitate easier access for young entrepreneurs and women producers to these models, we provide consultancy and project development support.

Our fundamental goal at Cetwell is to ensure that high-tech agricultural structures reach every region of our country and to make sustainable agriculture not just a vision but a widespread practice. In this regard, we are determined to continue our vision of being a leading and guiding actor in agricultural technologies by developing greenhouse projects of varying scales both domestically and internationally.

As Cetwell Bilgi Teknolojileri ve Zirai Sistemler Danışmanlık Hizmetleri A.Ş., we continue to accelerate our investments aimed at increasing agricultural productivity and expanding sustainable, technology-supported greenhouse models. We take pride in adding two significant greenhouse construction projects to our portfolio in 2025, both domestically and internationally.

Within this scope, firstly, a contract has been signed for the construction of a strawberry greenhouse with a total closed area of 19,440 m² in the Girne region of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, in collaboration with Şahin Kılıç Trading Company. Valued at 54,000,000 TRY excluding VAT, this project aims to establish an agricultural infrastructure in Cyprus that applies climate-controlled, automationbased, and modern production techniques.

Regarding our domestic operations, another strawberry greenhouse construction covering an area of 20,976 m² has commenced in the Seyhan district of Adana, based on a contract with Naime Şaşmaz. The contract value for this investment is 35,000,000 TRY excluding VAT and is intended to create a model that increases access to high-quality and sustainable agricultural production for local producers.

Both projects will incorporate advanced technological elements such as climate control systems, energy-efficient infrastructures, sensor-based remote monitoring systems, and digital agriculture solutions. Through these projects, we effectively implement our engineering, project management, and field application capabilities in modern greenhouse cultivation.

As Cetwell, we remain firmly committed to producing high value-added agricultural technologies, contributing to rural development, and developing sustainabilityfocused investments both in our country and in international markets.

MilSOFT is one of 1,859 companies worldwide that has achieved the highest maturity level, Level 5, of the CMMI maturity model. In the United States, only 43 companies have attained CMMI Level 5 maturity. This distinction adds value to the company and provides a competitive advantage in targeted markets. Compliance with these international standards and models strengthens MilSOFT's processes and products, enhancing the company's reputation and reliability in the global software market.

The CMMI Institute has released a new major version called "CMMI 2.0." MilSOFT has once again certified compliance with this new version, achieving Level 5 maturity for the seventh consecutive time.

Since 2010, the U.S. Department of Defense (US-DoD) has been working on agile transformation. The current directive given to the DoD by the U.S. Senate mandates the implementation of agile production techniques (such as Scrum, DevSecOps, etc.) for all new software development and maintenance projects. NATO is also undergoing an agile transformation, with pilot agile projects being conducted by the NCI Agency. In Turkey, the SSB's (Presidency of Defense Industries) strategic and

tactical plans include agile transformation goals, and the pilot implementation of an agile software development contract is part of these objectives.

Scaling agile methods has been one of the most challenging issues for complex products and multi-team product development. The Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) concept addresses these challenges and is used by Fortune 500 companies worldwide. Currently, 20,000 organizations globally implement SAFe. MilSOFT is among the first companies in the world to adopt SAFe. In the defense industry, many prime contractors and Tier-2 and Tier-3 subcontractors in the U.S. and Europe have successfully used SAFe. SAFe has proven results that increase time-to-market, efficiency, product quality, and employee engagement.

MilSOFT has been applying various agile methodologies since 2004. The SAFe method was selected as the default software development lifecycle for MilSOFT in 2018. MilSOFT is the first and only company in the Turkish defense industry to implement SAFe.
