Desert Control Releases Q2 2025 Report and Year-to-Date Company Update

Sandnes, Norway, 15 August 2025?- Desert Control AS (DSRT) announces its second

-quarter report and interim financial results for the fiscal period ending 30

June 2025.

Desert Control made operational and commercial progress in the second quarter of

2025, expanding deployments and trial programs in the U.S. across permanent crop

agriculture, golf, and ornamental landscaping, while advancing key partnerships

and projects in the Middle East. Notable developments included new applications

with commercial growers, universities, and golf courses in California and

Arizona, as well as continued integration of Liquid Natural Clay ('LNC") in

landscaping and urban greening initiatives with our licensing partners.

Operational Highlights:

· Application of over 4.5 million litres of LNC at Woodland Hills Country

Club, marking our first full golf course deployment

· Our partner, Saudi Desert Control, deploys first commercial sale at Atlas

Turf Arabia, the Middle East's first internationally licensed golf and sports

turf farm, applying LNC to 3.7 hectares of turf farm.

· Pilot application at Tempe Marketplace, marking our first application with a

large owner of commercial real estate.

· Encouraging improvement in cantaloupe and broccoli yields in certain

sections of trials at the University of Arizona Maricopa Agricultural Center.

Financial Highlights:

In the first half of 2025, Desert Control advanced key operational initiatives

in the U.S. and Middle East, laying the foundation for stronger revenue

contributions in the second half of the year. The Company maintained stable

operational performance despite the timing of revenue recognition under major

contracts, while continuing to invest in strategic projects, product

development, and commercial capacity.

· Revenue Outlook: Revenue for the quarter reflects the timing of recognition

under the U.S. PAYS contract, where measurable customer water savings trigger

revenue. Significant application work completed in Q2 is expected to contribute

to revenue in Q3 and beyond.

· EBITDA Performance: EBITDA remained stable quarter-over-quarter and year-to

-date, with disciplined cost control and operational efficiencies offsetting

higher activity levels in the U.S.

· Equity: Equity totalled NOK 43.71 million at quarter-end, providing headroom

for operations but reflecting a reduced buffer following continued losses.

· Cash Position: NOK 24.84 million in cash and cash equivalents as of 30 June

2025, reflecting strategic investments in product development, commercial

initiatives, and team capacity to support growth.

· Funding Horizon: Current cash resources are expected to support operations

into Q4 2025, excluding any future revenues.

As a result, the Board is actively evaluating funding alternatives to secure

additional resources. This may include potential equity financing, grants,

license agreements and cost optimization measures to extend the financial runway

and enable execution of the long-term growth plan. In conjunction with these

evaluations the Board may also assess other strategic alternatives to enhance

shareholder value.
