The Company was launched at a time when the fund management industry believed that tracking error was the key metric. Perfectly sensible managers would happily tell you that they were bearish about the prospects for Vodafone despite it being their largest holding. This was because the stock dominated the UK indices, and an underweight position still required a material investment. MIGO took the then radical stance that we would only take positions in trusts where we believed that we would achieve positive absolute returns. I would like to sound my appreciation to all those who have helped along the way, notably Daniel Lockyer in the early days and more recently Charlotte Cuthbertson who joined the MIGO team in 2017 and became the long-term heir apparent. I have enjoyed literally travelling the length and breadth of the country, from Aberdeen to Mousehole in Cornwall, updating an incredibly supportive share register. Without wishing to duplicate too much of what has been said elsewhere in this report, recent years have been hostile for investors in investment trusts. Headwinds have included chronic over supply, consolidation of the wealth management industry and poorly drafted cost disclosure rules. This toxic mix has led to widespread discounts creating a fi employing an activist approach. Asset Value Investors has a long track record in this arena and is particularly well equipped to generate strong returns in the current environment. Nick Greenwood NICK GREENWOOD  G SR FS SI MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 Strategic Report / Chairman’s Statement Overview of the year MIGO currently has around 40 holdings in total. The purpose remains the same as ever, to identify undervalued attractive themes in the investment trust sector trading at a discount. However, the Board and AVI believe that larger stakes in a more targeted investment company portfolio will enable fl aiming to accelerate superior returns from the wide discount opportunities in the sector. Performance-driven fee structure and capital return mechanism To align MIGO shareholders’ interests with this more targeted approach, the Board has agreed a revised fee structure with AVI. This will reduce the management fee to 0.35% per annum on the lower of MIGO’s market capitalisation and net asset value (NAV) (currently 0.65% per annum on market capitalisation) and add a performance fee of 15% of NAV total returns in excess of a SONIA + 3% hurdle, subject to a high watermark. Overall fees payable by the Company in any year will be capped at 2.5% per annum of the lower of MIGO’s market capitalisation and NAV. The Company estimates that the overall fee payable to AVI in any year will be lower under the new arrangement until NAV total return exceeds approximately 9% per annum. The Board has also agreed with AVI that AVI, as part of the revised fee structure, will reinvest 25% of any performance fee paid into MIGO shares. This proposal is subject to an aggregate 5% cap on AVI’s interest in MIGO shares, and a minimum 3-year hold period for shares acquired under this mechanism. To ensure that MIGO remains nimble and is best able to exploit the relevant opportunity set, the Board also expects to introduce a capital return mechanism in the future to limit NAV rising above £150 million. To be implemented at the Board’s discretion to optimise shareholder alignment, this will also potentially provide liquidity for shareholders. The Board believes a capital return mechanism, combined with the revised fee structure, will avoid a misaligned incentive for AVI to gather assets rather than focus on delivering shareholder returns. These changes reinforce MIGO’s commitment to leading investment company best practice, by proactively aligning the portfolio to the investment opportunity, and strengthening alignment between shareholders, manager and Board. Portfolio changes will be fi returns from existing maturing investments, ff The Portfolio Managers, however, expect that the bulk of these changes will be completed within 12 months, subject to market conditions. The Board also reiterates its ongoing commitment to MIGO’s existing share buyback approach, dividend policy and 3-yearly realisation opportunity. The Board is very optimistic about the fi  fi covered in this annual report.

I would like to thank Nick personally ff he has contributed to this Company over this time – he has been a great manager and a great colleague. ff from 18 June 2025, Charlotte Cuthbertson is joined in co-managing MIGO by Tom Treanor, Director and Fund Manager at AVI. Charlotte and Tom are supported by AVI’s 11-strong research team. More focused and activist approach The Board and AVI have also decided to implement a higher conviction approach to managing MIGO, to align with the current opportunities in the investment trust sector. This will see MIGO’s portfolio concentrating over time to focus on 10-15 core holdings.  MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 Dividend The results attributable to shareholders for the year ended 30 April 2025 are shown in the Financial Statements.

Subject to investment trust rules, any dividends and distributions will continue to be at the discretion of the Board. Board Change As previously reported, Hugh van Cutsem retired from the Board of MIGO on 10 July 2024. This was announced on 14 March 2024 and followed 14 years of service to MIGO, during which he proved to be a great advocate of the Company and added his considerable experience and insights to the Board’s decision making. 2024 Realisation Opportunity ff shareholders the latest three-yearly opportunity to realise their shares for cash at a small discount to NAV as required by the Company’s Articles of Association. 1,188,066 shares were realised in the course of the exercise, or 5.3% of shares in issue. These shares were bought back by the Company and subsequently cancelled, and it was not necessary to create a realisation share class. Considering the relatively small number of shares which were realised, the Board is reassured that shareholders agree with the Directors and Investment Manager about the continuing positive long-term opportunities presented by MIGO. Share Issues and Share Buybacks At the year-end, the Company’s shares traded at a discount of 4.5% to the net asset value per share, having traded at a discount of 4.6% at the 2024 year-end. In comparison, the unweighted average discount across the whole investment companies universe has contracted from 19.98% to 16.34% over the  During the year ended 30 April 2025, no new shares were issued. A total of 2,103,354 shares was repurchased in addition to the 1,188,066 realised shares, in order to restrict any undue widening in the Company’s share price discount to NAV per share. While the Company does not target any particular share price or discount level for buybacks, the buybacks conducted during the year were at discounts ranging from 2.0% to 4.9%. As at the date of this report, the discount stands at 2.8% and 336,014 further shares have been repurchased since the year-end.

We also do not believe that listed investment companies should be included within the scope of the new “Consumer Composite Investment” (CCI) Rules. Listed investment companies are equities rather than “products” and investors are shareholders who are served and protected under the UK Listing Rules, including in relation to disclosure of costs and expenses which can be easily viewed in the companies’ report and accounts. Furthermore, the FCA’s proposed new approach, as currently drafted, will prevent investment companies like MIGO from ffThis misleading way of disclosing costs will make the whole sector look more expensive than it really is, thereby reducing demand and liquidity.

AVI was established in 1985 to take over the management of one of the oldest listed investment companies in London. AVI has a long history of running investment trusts and investing in them. AVI’s strategy is to seek out-of-favour companies whose assets are misunderstood by the fi underlying assets. This specialist research-driven approach is still a unique combination nearly 40 years later. AVI: RESPONSIBLE INVESTORS AVI believes that the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and sustainability considerations into its investment strategy is not only integral to comprehensively understanding each investment’s ability to create long-term value but is aligned with its values as responsible investors.

Q Tom, can you give us a quick synopsis of your career to date? How did you get involved in investment trusts? A fi years, joining us an investment analyst in 2011. AVI has a long history of investing in investment trusts within our broader global strategy focusing on discounted assets. Given I had spent the previous nine years at a specialist closed-ended fund data company (Fundamental Data, later acquired by Morningstar) in a variety of roles, it was perhaps unsurprising that I gravitated towards the investment trusts part of AVI Global Trust’s portfolio where we ended up materially increasing our exposure and in which I helped reinvigorate AVI’s reputation for activism and engagement. As AVI’s team expanded, I became Head of Research in a role overseeing the Global investment team while continuing my work on the closed-ended fund part of the portfolio I’m extremely excited to be joining Charlotte as co-manager of MIGO at a time when the London-listed closed- ended fund market is presenting the most attractive opportunity set I can recall seeing in my career. Q Is there a good example of activism and engagement you have done previously? A Hipgnosis Songs Fund (SONG) was a recent fi SONG came to market in 2018 in the latter stages of an issuance boom in alternative income vehicles that began in the wake of the Global Financial Crisis when developed market central banks cut rates to near-zero, depriving investors of income from more traditional sources such as government bonds The proposition behind SONG made a lot of sense: after years in the doldrums due to piracy, the advent of the streaming model was transformative for the economics of the music industry. Music revenues became much more recurring, predictable, and forecastable, and allowed an asset class to develop in publishing and recorded rights to music. SONG, however, was not the right vehicle. A weak Board failed to oversee a poorly fl team of questionable competence, and the company found itself trading at a huge discount to reported NAV. We built up a large stake in the business, becoming the largest shareholder and – working with other shareholders – replacing several directors. The new appointees then oversaw a successful sales process for the company at a material premium to the prevailing share price. Q Why do you think activism is the right way to produce returns for investors? A It’s far from the only way but we do think it forms a very important part of our toolkit. We owe it to our shareholders to work as hard as we can to unlock value by narrowing or eliminating discounts to NAV and activism is key to that. We engage with all our investee companies and can usually achieve results in private. But having the willingness to go public if required and the experience of doing so is an important backstop. In a world where we may see many of the functions of investment management taken over by AI, we think the art of engaging with other shareholders and management to improve companies and leave them in a better place than where we found them is always going to be an inherently human pursuit.. Q What are the benefits of running a more concentrated portfolio? A fi We do a lot of work on each holding and, when or if our thesis is proven right on a stock, we want the impact to be properly fl that having fewer holdings can actually reduce risk if it means that we have more time to underwrite the investment case for each one. And lastly, engagement and activism are time-consuming, and we want to ensureffi for each holding. Q Charlotte, what engagement and activism has MIGO done prior to this change? How will it be different going forward? A Activism and engagement have always been part of the MIGO process. While many managers know how to manage their underlying investments well, they may lack experience in running an investment trust. We aim to support both managers and boards in navigating this aspect. Since joining AVI, we have been able to leverage the long history the company has fi area. We will not need to engage heavily on every stock in the portfolio, but where we see scope for activism to help narrow a discount, we now have the expertise to be more proactive with a higher chance of successful outcomes. Q How has MIGO developed since joiningAVI? A What made AVI an appealing home for MIGO was its dedicated focus on investment trusts. Being part of a supportive and specialised environment has been fi contribution from the wider investment team have been invaluable, and since MIGO’s arrival, we have enjoyed the collaboration with colleagues. Q What should investors expect in the next 6-12 months? A Refocusing the portfolio takes time, but we are hopeful that in 12 months the trust should be far more concentrated in the core names we believe will drive returns for shareholders going forward.

In May 2025, the trust announced that it had sold their Portuguese hydropower asset and they expected the remaining portfolio to be sold in two bulk sales. . CHANGES There has been a considerable amount of turnover in the portfolio. What would have been considered a wide discount in the past may now be less attractive given the deep discounts which exist in the current environment. We have sold out of many legacy names where we no longer see a catalyst or where trusts have performed so well that the capital is best recycled into more exciting opportunities. We sold out of CQS Natural Resources as the discount had tightened considerably with the activist Saba taking a position. Given our preference for reducing underlying equity exposure, we sold out of Ecofin Global Utilities at a ~10% discount and recycled the money into infrastructure exposure where we believe portfolio wind-ups and sales of assets will provide nearer term catalysts on wider discounts. NB Private Equity was sold due to its relatively tight discount vs the wider peer group and a lack of near-term catalysts. * This refers to Austrian economist Joseph Schumpeter’s creative destruction theory where old technologies or industries are “destroyed” in order for new ones to take their place, creating economic growth.  G SR FS SI MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 10 YEAR RECORD As at 30 April 2025 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 NAV per share 342.5p 362.6p 328.6p 362.6p 345.9p 223.1p 275.6p 276.4p 248.7p 182.4p Share price 327.0p 346.0p 318.5p 355.5p 346.0p 214.0p 276.5p 273.0p 242.3p 164.3p Share price (discount)/premium to NAV per share (4.5)% (4.6)% (3.1)% (2.0)% 0.0% (4.1)% 0.3% (1.2)% (2.6)% (9.9)% Total net assets (£m) 65.9 81.7 79.8 94.7 93.1 62.6 77.2 75.2 62.9 46.1 Gearing 15.2% 6.1% – – 2.1% – – 6.7% 8.0% 10.8% PERFORMANCE SINCE INCEPTION (6 APRIL 2004) Total Return Performance to 30 April 2025 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 -40 -20 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240 260 280 300 320 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2011 2012 % 2025 Source: Morningstar..

Its purpose is to inform the shareholders of the Company and help them to assess how the Directors have performed their duty to promote the success of the Company. In particular, the Chairman’s Statement on pages 4 and 5 and the Investment Manager’s Report on pages 10 to 13 concentrate on the outlook for the current year and the factors likely to affect the position of the business. The Strategic Report contains certain forward-looking statements. These statements are made by the Directors in good faith based on the information available to them up to the time of their approval of this report and such statements should be treated with caution due to the inherent uncertainties, including both economic and business risk factors, underlying any such forward-looking information. Further information on how the Directors have discharged their duty under section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 can be found on pages 27 to 30.

The purpose of the Company is to provide a vehicle for investors to gain exposure to a portfolio of companies which have been undervalued by the markets in which they are traded, through a single investment. The Company’s strategy is to create value for shareholders by addressing its investment objective, which is set out below. As an externally managed investment trust, all of the Company’s day-to-day management and administrative functions are outsourced to service providers.

In line with its primary focus, the Board retains responsibility for all the key elements of the Company’s strategy and business model, including: • investment objective and policy, incorporating the investment guidelines and limits, and changes to these; • whether the manager should be authorised to gear the portfolio up to a pre-determined limit; • review of performance against the   • consideration of share issuance and buybacks and premium/discount management; • review of the performance and continuing appointment of service providers; and • ff oversight, risk management and corporate governance.  details of the principal risks, and how they are managed, follow within this business review.

Share price in relation to the NAV per share The Board believes that an important driver of an investment trust’s discount or premium over the long term is investment performance together with a proactive marketing strategy. However, there can be volatility in the discount or premium during the year. Therefore, the Board requests authority each year to buy back and issue shares with a view to limiting the volatility of the share price discount or premium. During the year under review, no new shares were issued by the Company (2024: none). New shares will only be issued at a premium to the Company’s cum-income net asset value at the time of issue. 3,291,420 shares were bought back during the year (2024: 1,760,000), and 336,014 shares were bought back after the year-end (2024: 75,000). The Company’s Ordinary share price in relation to the NAV per share during the year ended 30 April 2025 has ranged from a discount of <0.1% (2024: 0.7%) to a discount of 5.1% (2024: 5.8%).

Principal Risks, Emerging Risks and Risk Management During the year ended 30 April 2025, the Audit Committee has carried out a robust assessment of the emerging and principal risks facing the Company, including those that would threaten its business model, future performance, solvency and liquidity.

The Investment Manager monitors the volatility, discount, quality of underlying assets, and level of gearing within the portfolio holdings and potential investments.

Since the year-end, the Board and AVI have concurrently decided to implement a higher conviction approach to managing MIGO, to align with the current opportunities in the investment trust sector. This will see MIGO’s portfolio concentrating over time to focus on 10-15 core holdings. In managing this risk the Board reviews the Company’s investment objective in relation to market and economic conditions and the performance of its peers and discusses at each Board meeting the Company’s future development and strategy.

During the year under review, elections in a number of countries, including the USA, and their results, have emerged as new risks which have already led to uncertainty in the markets. Since the year-end, the war between Israel and Iran and the possibility of that confrontation spreading further with as yet unforeseen consequences, has again added to uncertainly in global markets. Whilst it is not possible to mitigate the above emerging risks directly, the Board regularly reviews the premium and discount levels and considers ways in which share price performance may be enhanced to prevent MIGO becoming unattractive to shareholders. The Investment Manager, Frostrow and Deutsche Numis are in regular contact with larger investors to ensure that MIGO’s objective is still in line with shareholders’ objectives. There are also regular updates for all shareholders by way of factsheets, annual and half-yearly reports and other documentation on the Company’s website. The experience and knowledge of the Directors is useful in these discussions, as are update papers and advice received from the Board’s key service providers such as the AIFM and Investment Manager and the Company’s corporate broker. In addition, the Company is a member of the AIC, which provides regular technical updates, draws members’ attention to forthcoming industry and regulatory issues and advises on compliance obligations.

During the year ended 30 April 2025, the management fee payable to the AIFM was calculated at an annual rate of 0.65% of the adjusted market capitalisation of the Ordinary Shares and 0.5% of the adjusted market capitalisation of any Realisation Shares in issue at the time. Following the 2024 Realisation Opportunity, there are no realisation shares in issue. Since the year end, the Board of MIGO has agreed a revised fee structure with AVI. This will reduce the management fee to 0.35% per annum on the lower of MIGO’s market capitalisation and net asset value (NAV) and add a performance fee of 15% of NAV total returns in excess of a SONIA + 3% hurdle, subject to a high watermark. Overall fees payable by the Company in any year will be capped at 2.5% per annum of the lower of MIGO’s market capitalisation and NAV. The management fee continues to accrue daily and is payable monthly in arrears. In addition, as part of the revised fee structure, AVI will reinvest 25% of any performance fee paid into MIGO shares, subject to an aggregate 5% cap on AVI’s interest in MIGO shares, and a minimum 3-year hold period for shares acquired under this mechanism. If the Company as a whole moves to a realisation basis following a future Realisation Opportunity, then the AIFM will be paid 0.5% of the adjusted market capitalisation of the Company as a whole. Details of the fees paid to the AIFM for its services during the year are set out in note 3 to the Financial Statements on page 63. The Company invests in AVI Japan Opportunity Trust plc (“AJOT”), another investment trust company managed by AVI. The Company does not pay management fees on the value of its investment in AJOT.

Strategic Report / Business Review continued  MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 Culture and Business Ethics The Directors agree that establishing and maintaining a healthy corporate culture among the Board members and in its interaction with the Investment Manager, other service providers and shareholders supports the delivery of the Company’s goals. The Board seeks to promote a culture of openness, debate and integrity through ongoing dialogue and engagement with all stakeholders. The Company is committed to carrying out business in an honest and fair manner with a zero-tolerance approach to bribery, tax evasion and corruption. As such, policies and procedures are in place to prevent these. As detailed in the Governance section, the Company has a number of policies and procedures in place to assist with maintaining a culture of good governance including those fl of interest. The Board assesses and monitors compliance with these policies as well as the general culture of the Board through Board meetings and, in particular, the annual evaluation process which is undertaken by each Director (for more information please see the performance evaluation section on 39 and 40).

Day-to-day management of the Company’s business is delegated to the Investment Manager. As an investment trust that invests in other funds, the Company has very limited direct impact on the community or the environment and therefore the Company itself has no environmental, human rights, social or community policies. However, the Company acknowledges that it can have an indirect impact on the community or the environment, based on the portfolio companies that the Investment Manager  climate change are frequently discussed in meetings with portfolio companies, and are also part of the risk assessment when deciding on whether an investment should be made. For further details please see the Investment Manager’s Report on pages 10 to 13 and the Business Review on page 24. As an investment company, the Company does not provide goods or services in the normal course of business and does not have customers. All its operational functions are outsourced to third-party service providers. Accordingly, the Company falls outside the scope of the Modern Slavery Act 2015. The Company’s suppliers are typically professional advisers and the Company’s supply chains are considered low risk in this regard. In carrying out its activities and in relationships with suppliers, the Company aims to conduct itself responsibly, ethically and fairly. The Board expects its principal service providers also to have appropriate governance policies in place.

The continuation pool will be managed in accordance with the Company's current investment objective and policy, whilst the realisation pool will be managed in accordance with an orderly realisation programme with the aim of making progressive returns of cash to holders of Realisation Shares.

The Chairman encourages open debate to foster a supportive and co-operative approach for all participants. Strategic decisions are discussed openly and constructively. The Board aims to be open and transparent with shareholders and other stakeholders, and for the Company to conduct itself responsibly, ethically and fairly in its relationships with service providers. Diversity Policy The Board supports the principle of  is that the Board and its committees should be comprised of directors who collectively display the necessary balance of professional skills, experience, length of service and industry knowledge and that appointments to the Board and its committees should be made on merit, against objective criteria, including diversity in its broadest sense. The objective of the policy is to have a broad range of approaches, backgrounds, skills, knowledge and experience represented on the Board. The Directors believe that this will make the Board and its committees ff sustainable success of the Company and generating value for shareholders by ensuring there is a breadth of perspective among the Directors and the challenge needed to support good decision making. To this end, achieving a diversity of perspectives and backgrounds on the Board and its committees will be a key consideration in any director search process. The Board is aware that gender representation objectives have been set for FTSE 350 companies and that targets concerning ethnic diversity have been recommended for each FTSE 100 board to have at least one director of colour by 2021 and for each FTSE 250 board to have the same by 2024.

The Committee met three times during the year under review and once following the year end. Composition Due to the small size of the Board, the Audit Committee comprises all the Directors, whose biographies are set out on page 32, including the Chairman of the Board. In accordance with the terms of reference of the Committee and the AIC Code, the Chairman of the Board may be a member provided he or she was independent on his/her appointment as chairman, but may not act as the Committee Chairman. All Directors are non-executive and were considered independent during the year, as discussed on pages 33 and 34 in the Report of the Directors. The Committee considers that at least one member has recent and relevant experience in accounting or auditing and that the Committee as a whole has experience relevant to the investment trust industry. The Company’s Auditors are invited to attend meetings as necessary. Representatives of the AIFM and Investment Manager may also be invited. The Company Secretary acts as the Secretary to the Audit Committee. Responsibilities of the Committee The Committee’s responsibilities are set out in formal terms of reference which are available on the Company’s website www.migoplc.co.uk and which are reviewed annually.

Internal Controls and Risk Management The Board has overall responsibility for the risk assessment and review of the internal controls of the Company, undertaken in the context of its investment objective. The review covers the key business, fi risks facing the Company. In arriving at its judgement of what risks the Company faces, the Board has considered the Company’s operations in light of the following factors: • the nature of the Company, with all management functions outsourced to  • the nature and extent of risk which it regards as acceptable for the Company to  •  and • the Company’s ability to reduce the incidence and impact of risk on its performance. Against this background, a risk matrix has been developed which covers key risks that the Company faces, the likelihood of their occurrence and their potential impact, how these risks are monitored and the mitigating controls put in place. The Board has delegated to the Committee the responsibility for the review and maintenance of the risk matrix. It reviews the risk matrix twice yearly, bearing in mind any changes to the Company, its environment or service providers since the last review. The Committee considers whether any new risks are emerging as a result of any fi the risk matrix are discussed with the Board. Over the past year, the wars in Gaza and Ukraine as well as elections in a number of countries including the UK and the US, have remained as risk factors, and the Company’s risk matrix takes account of such risks on various aspects of the Company’s operations and investment management. The Audit Committee keeps all developments under close review, but there were no fundamental changes to the Company’s risk management fi fi the Committee’s most recent risk review. The Committee acknowledges that the Company is reliant on the systems utilised by its service providers. The Committee receives internal controls reports from, and reviews the internal controls in place at, the Investment Manager and AIFM twice annually. The internal controls reports from its other principal service providers – from the Company’s Administrator  and from the Registrar - are reviewed on an annual basis.

This can only provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. Internal Audit The Company does not have an internal audit function as all of its day-to-day operations are delegated to third parties, all of whom have their own internal control procedures.

It is expected that the Audit Committee will conduct an audit tender following the completion of the Company’s audit in 2026 and will recommend to shareholders the appointment (or re-appointment) of the successful auditors in due course thereafter. The Company has complied throughout the year ended 30 April 2025 with the provisions of the Statutory Audit Services Order 2014, issued by the Competition and Markets Authority. The re-appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Auditors to the Company will be submitted for shareholder approval, together with a separate resolution to authorise the Committee to determine the remuneration of the Auditors, at the AGM to be held on 18 September 2025. Non-Audit Services In accordance with the Company’s non-audit services policy, the Audit Committee reviews the scope and nature of all proposed non- audit services before engagement to ensure that auditor independence and objectivity are safeguarded. The audit policy includes a list of non-audit services which may be provided by the Auditors as long as there is no apparent threat to independence, as well as a list of services which are prohibited.

Due to the small size and nature of the Board, it is not considered appropriate for the Company to establish a separate remuneration committee and the remuneration of the Directors is therefore dealt with by the Board as a whole. The Board considers the framework for the remuneration of the Directors on an annual basis. It reviews the ongoing appropriateness of the Company’s remuneration policy and the individual remuneration of Directors by reference to the activities of the Company and comparison with other companies of a similar structure and size. This is in line with  For the year ended 30 April 2025, Directors’ fees were set at the rate of £39,300 per annum for the Chairman, £33,800 per annum for the Chairman of the Audit Committee and £28,400 per annum for other non-executive Directors.

We have audited the financial statements, included within the Annual Report, which comprise: the Statement of Financial Position as at 30 April 2025; the Income Statement, the Statement of Changes in Equity, the Statement of Cash Flow for the year then ended; and the notes to the financial statements, which include a description of the significant accounting policies. Our opinion is consistent with our reporting to the Audit Committee. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs (UK)”) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under ISAs (UK) are further described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Independence We remained independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, which includes the FRC’s Ethical Standard, as applicable to listed public interest entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services prohibited by the FRC’s Ethical Standard were not provided. We have provided no non-audit services to the company in the period under audit. Our audit approach Overview Audit scope • We conducted our audit of the financial statements using information from the AIFM and Frostrow Capital LLP (the “Administrator”), to whom the company has engaged to provide all administrative functions. We also used information from Waystone Administration Solutions (UK) Limited, whom Frostrow Capital LLP has engaged to provide certain administrative functions. • We tailored the scope of our audit taking into account the types of investments within the Company, the involvement of the third parties referred to above, the accounting processes and controls and the industry in which the Company operates. • We obtained an understanding of the control environment in place at both the AIFM and the Administrator, and adopted a fully substantive testing approach using reports obtained from the Administrator. Key audit matters • Valuation and existence of listed investments. • Accuracy, Completeness and Occurrence of Income. Materiality • Overall materiality: £659,000 (2024: £816,000) based on 1% of Net Asset Value. • Performance materiality: £494,000 (2024: £612,000). The scope of our audit As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in the auditors’ professional judgement, were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) identified by the auditors, including those which had the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy; the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the engagement team. These matters, and any comments we make on the results of our procedures thereon, were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. This is not a complete list of all risks identified by our audit. fi to the members of MIGO Opportunities Trust plc  MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 The key audit matters below are consistent with last year. Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Valuation and existence of listed investments Refer to the Audit Committee Report, Accounting Policies and Note9 to the Financial Statements. The investment portfolio at 30 April 2025 consists largely of listed equity investments valued at £68.3m. We focused on the valuation and existence of listed investments as the balance is the most significant financial reporting item within the Financial Statements. Our approach to addressing the matter involved the following procedures: • Tested the valuation of all listed equity investments as at 30 April 2025 by agreeing the valuation to independent third-party sources; and • Tested the existence of all of the listed equity investments as at 30 April 2025 by agreeing investment holdings to an independent custodian confirmation. No material misstatements were identified from this testing. Accuracy, Completeness and Occurrence of Income Refer to the Audit Committee Report, Accounting Policies and Note2 to the Financial Statements. The Company has reported revenue of £2.3m (2024: £2.1m). We focused on the accuracy, completeness and occurrence of investment income as incomplete or inaccurate income could have a material impact on the Company’s net asset value. We also focused on the accounting policy for investment income recognition and the presentation of investment income in the Income Statement for compliance with the requirements of The Association of Investment Companies Statement of Recommended Practice (the “AIC SORP”), as incorrect application could indicate a misstatement in income recognition. • We assessed the accounting policy for income recognition for compliance with accounting standards and the AIC SORP and performed testing to check that income had been accounted for in accordance with the stated accounting policy. • We found that the accounting policies implemented were in accordance with accounting standards and the AIC SORP, and that income from investments has been accounted for in accordance with the stated accounting policy. • We tested accuracy for all dividend receipts by agreeing the dividend rates to independent market data. • To test for completeness, we tested, for a sample of investment holdings in the portfolio, that all dividends declared in the market had been recorded. • We tested occurrence by testing that all dividends recorded in the year have been declared in the market. No material misstatements were identified from this testing. How we tailored the audit scope We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the company, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which it operates. The Company’s accounting is delegated to the Administrator who maintains the Company’s accounting records and who has implemented controls over those accounting records. We obtained our audit evidence from substantive tests. However, as part of our risk assessment, we understood and assessed the internal controls in place at both the AIFM and the Administrator to the extent relevant to our audit. This assessment of the operating and accounting structure in place at both organisations involved obtaining and analysing the relevant controls reports issued by the independent service auditor of the AIFM and the Administrator in accordance with generally accepted assurance standards for such work. Following this assessment, we applied professional judgement to determine the extent of testing required over each balance in the financial statements. The impact of climate risk on our audit In planning our audit, we made enquiries of the Directors and the Administrator to understand the extent of the potential impact of climate change on the Company’s financial statements. In conducting our audit, we made enquiries of the Directors and the Portfolio Managers to understand the extent of the potential impact of climate change risk on the Company’s financial statements. The Directors and Portfolio Managers concluded that the impact on the measurement and disclosures within the financial statements is not material because the majority of the Company’s investment portfolio is made up of level 1 quoted securities which are valued at fair value based on market prices. We found this to be consistent with our understanding of the Company’s investment activities. We also considered the consistency of the climate change disclosures included in the Strategic Report and Investment Manager’s Report with the financial statements and our knowledge from our audit.  SR FS SI MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 G Materiality The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. We set certain quantitative thresholds for materiality. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures on the individual financial statement line items and disclosures and in evaluating the effect of misstatements, both individually and in aggregate on the financial statements as a whole. Based on our professional judgement, we determined materiality for the financial statements as a whole as follows: Overall company materiality £659,000 (2024: £816,000). How we determined it 1% of Net Asset Value. Rationale for benchmark applied We believe that net assets is the primary measure used by the shareholders in assessing the performance of the entity, and is a generally accepted auditing benchmark. This benchmark provides an appropriate and consistent year on year basisfor our audit. We use performance materiality to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that the aggregate of uncorrected and undetected misstatements exceeds overall materiality. Specifically, we use performance materiality in determining the scope of our audit and the nature and extent of our testing of account balances, classes of transactions and disclosures, for example in determining sample sizes. Our performance materiality was 75% (2024: 75%) of overall materiality, amounting to £494,000 (2024: £612,000) for the company financial statements. In determining the performance materiality, we considered a number of factors - the history of misstatements, risk assessment and aggregation risk and the effectiveness of controls - and concluded that an amount at the upper end of our normal range was appropriate. We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our audit above £32,900 (2024: £40,800) as well as misstatements below that amount that, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons. Conclusions relating to going concern Our evaluation of the directors’ assessment of the company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included: • evaluating the Directors’ risk assessment and considering whether it addressed relevant threats; • evaluating the Directors’ assessment of potential operational impacts, considering their consistency with other available information and our understanding of the business and assessed the potential impact on the financial statements; • reviewing the Directors’ assessment of the company’s financial position in the context of its ability to meet future expected operating expenses and debt repayments, their assessment of liquidity as well as their review of the operational resilience of the company and oversight of key third-party service providers; • assessing the premium/discount the Company’s share price trades as compared to the net asset value per share; and • assessing the implication of significant reductions in NAV as a result of a severe but plausible downside scenario in the market’s performance on the ongoing ability of the Company to operate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this conclusion is not a guarantee as to the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. From our work on the corporate governance statement described below, we have nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to the directors’ statement in the financial statements about whether the directors considered it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis ofaccounting. Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. Governance / Independent Auditors’ Report continued  MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 Reporting on other information The other information comprises all of the information in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify an apparent material inconsistency or material misstatement, we are required to perform procedures to conclude whether there is a material misstatement of the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report based on these responsibilities. With respect to the Strategic report and Report of the Directors, we also considered whether the disclosures required by the UK Companies Act 2006 have been included. Based on our work undertaken in the course of the audit, the Companies Act 2006 requires us also to report certain opinions and matters as described below. Strategic report and Report of the Directors In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit, the information given in the Strategic report and Report of the Directors for the year ended 30 April 2025 is consistent with the financial statements and has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. In light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we did not identify any material misstatements in the Strategic report and Report of the Directors. Directors’ Remuneration In our opinion, the part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report to be audited has been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. Corporate governance statement As explained in the Corporate Governance Statement, the directors have chosen to demonstrate how the company has met its obligations under the UK Corporate Governance Code (‘the Code’) by reporting under the 2019 Association of Investment Companies’ Code of Corporate Governance (‘the AIC Code’). As such, we refer to the AIC code where we report the matters required under ISAs (UK) in respect of the directors’ statements in relation to going concern, longer-term viability and that part of the corporate governance statement relating to the company’s compliance with the provisions of the Code specified by the Listing Rules for our review. Our additional responsibilities with respect to the corporate governance statement as other information are described in the Reporting on other information section of thisreport. Based on the work undertaken as part of our audit, we have concluded that each of the following elements of the corporate governance statement is materially consistent with the financial statements and our knowledge obtained during the audit, and we have nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to: • The directors’ confirmation that they have carried out a robust assessment of the emerging and principal risks; • The disclosures in the Annual Report that describe those principal risks, what procedures are in place to identify emerging risks and an explanation of how these are being managed or mitigated; • The directors’ statement in the financial statements about whether they considered it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing them, and their identification of any material uncertainties to the company’s ability to continue to do so over a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements; • The directors’ explanation as to their assessment of the company’s prospects, the period this assessment covers and why the period is appropriate; and • The directors’ statement as to whether they have a reasonable expectation that the company will be able to continue in operation and meet its liabilities as they fall due over the period of its assessment, including any related disclosures drawing attention to any necessary qualifications orassumptions. Our review of the directors’ statement regarding the longer-term viability of the company was substantially less in scope than an audit and only consisted of making inquiries and considering the directors’ process supporting their statement; checking that the statement is in alignment with the relevant provisions of the Code; and considering whether the statement is consistent with the financial statements and our knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit. In addition, based on the work undertaken as part of our audit, we have concluded that each of the following elements of the corporate governance statement is materially consistent with the financial statements and our knowledge obtained during the audit: • The directors’ statement that they consider the Annual Report, taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and understandable, and provides the information necessary for the members to assess the company’s position, performance, business model and strategy; • The section of the Annual Report that describes the review of effectiveness of risk management and internal control systems; and • The section of the Annual Report describing the work of the Audit Committee. We have nothing to report in respect of our responsibility to report when the directors’ statement relating to the company’s compliance with the Code does not properly disclose a departure from a relevant provision of the Code specified under the Listing Rules for review by the auditors. Responsibilities for the financial statements and the audit Responsibilities of the directors for the financial statements As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors’ Responsibilities in respect of the Financial Statements, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the applicable framework and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. The directors are also responsible for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.  SR FS SI MIGO Opportunities Trust plc / Annual Report 2025 G Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or inthe aggregate, they could reasonably beexpected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below. Based on our understanding of the company and industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to breaches of section 1158 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010, and we considered the extent to which non- compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to manipulate revenue (investment income and capital gains) or to increase net asset value.. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included: • enquiries with the Administrator and the Audit Committee, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation andfraud; • reviewing relevant meeting minutes, including those of the Audit Committee; • assessment of the company’s compliance with the requirements of section 1158 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010, including recalculation of numerical aspects of the eligibility conditions; • identifying and testing manual year end journal entries posted during the preparation of the financial statements; and • designing audit procedures to incorporate unpredictability around the nature, timing or extent of our testing. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non- compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. Our audit testing might include testing complete populations of certain transactions and balances, possibly using data auditing techniques. However, it typically involves selecting a limited number of items for testing, rather than testing complete populations. We will often seek to target particular items for testing based on their size or risk characteristics. In other cases, we will use audit sampling to enable us to draw a conclusion about the population from which the sample is selected. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the FRC’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/ auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors’ report. Use of this report This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the company’s members as a body in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving these opinions, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown orinto whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent inwriting. Other required reporting Companies Act 2006 exception reporting Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report to you if, in our opinion: • we have not obtained all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or • adequate accounting records have not been kept by the company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or • certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or • the financial statements and the part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report to be audited are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns. We have no exceptions to report arising from this responsibility. Appointment Following the recommendation of the Audit Committee, we were appointed by the members on 30 September 2016 to audit the financial statements for the year ended 30April 2017 and subsequent financial periods. The period of total uninterrupted engagement is nine years, covering the years ended 30 April 2017 to 30 April 2025.

Following the implementation of the Competition and Markets Authority order on Statutory Audit Services only the Audit Committee may negotiate and agree the terms of the auditors’ service agreement. Resolution 9 – Authority to allot ordinary shares Resolution 9, an ordinary resolution as set out in the Notice of AGM, if passed, will renew the Directors’ authority to allot shares in accordance with statutory pre-emption rights. This resolution will authorise the Board to allot ordinary shares generally and unconditionally in accordance with section 551 of Companies Act 2006 up to an aggregate nominal value of £63,034, representing approximately one third of the Company’s issued share capital as at the date of the Notice of AGM or, if changed, the number representing one third of the issued share capital of the Company at the date at which this resolution is passed. The Company does not currently hold any shares in treasury. The Board believes that the passing of Resolution 9 is in the shareholders’ interests as the authority is intended to be used for funding investment opportunities sourced by the Investment Manager, thereby mitigating any potential dilution of investment returns for existing shareholders, and the Directors will only issue new ordinary shares at a price above the prevailing NAV per Ordinary share. The authority, if given, will lapse at the conclusion of the 2026 AGM of the Company. The Directors do not currently intend to allot shares other than to take advantage of opportunities in the market as they arise and only if they believe it would be advantageous to the Company’s shareholders to do so. Resolution 10 – Disapplication of pre-emption rights Resolution 10, a special resolution, is being proposed to authorise the Directors to disapply the statutory pre-emption rights of existing shareholders in relation to the issue of shares under Resolution 9, for cash or the sale of shares out of treasury up to an aggregate nominal amount of £18,910 issued share capital immediately upon the passing of this resolution.
