Kee in More Larvae for Biomass Growth p g

==> picture [709 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

Commentary

==> picture [383 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • Biomass has been built as fingerlings have been retained for MCA production

  • All time high of 2,481 tonnes in grow-out stock as at 30 June 2025. Improvements in feeding and increased fish numbers has led to acceleration in biomass volume.

Sold more Larvae* during COVID 19

  • As fish get larger biomass growth should accelerate (depending on harvest size)

  • Growth is not linear all year round. In winter months is slower than in warmer months

  • Larvae production going forward will be prioritised to MCA grow-out needs ahead of government sales

  • Larvae sold to Govt for native waterways re-stocking during COVID 19 resulted in lower biomass entering our production cycle and therefore reduced fish stocks at saleable size as exports and restaurant markets re-opened.

Developing “Aquna” as a registered Breed of Murray Cod

The programme overview is in partnership with CSIRO using modern selective breeding methodologies. Commencing in 2021, the programme is multi-generational and designed with identify and amplify superior genetic traits. These characteristics will be the intellectual property of Aquna.

Key Breeding Objectives:

Faster Growth Rates

  • Accelerate time to market weight (target: 2.5kg+ in <30 months)

  • Improve feed conversion ratio (FCR) towards 1.5:1 economic target

Enhanced Fish Health

  • Improved disease resistance and survival rates

  • Better adaptation to free-range pond environment

Superior Flesh Quality

  • Higher fillet yield percentage

  • Optimised intramuscular fat content for premium culinary characteristics

Competitive Impact:

Intellectual Property

  • "Aquna" breed creates proprietary genetics unavailable to competitors

==> picture [385 x 258] intentionally omitted <==

Economic Advantage

  • Faster growth = reduced production costs and improved capital efficiency

Product Differentiation

  • Consistent premium quality supports brand positioning and pricing power

Progress: Initial cohorts showing up to 80% faster growth in best-performing genetic families.

FY26: Scaled deployment of improved genetics across hatchery production.

MCA's Com etitive Advanta e p g

==> picture [30 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

MCA’s competitive advantage is changing

Market Fundamentals

  • Growing consumption driving demand: Australian per capita seafood consumption has reached 20.7kg annually (up from9.1kg in 1961), growing at nearly 2x the rate of population growth as consumers prioritise healthy protein sources.

  • Premium market expanding: The Australian seafood market will reach $8.34B by 2034, with the premium segment growing fastest as consumers increasingly value sustainability, traceability, and local production.

  • Sustainability commands premiums: Products with green certifications achieve 30-40% price premiums, and MCA has already secured AMCS Green Rating with BAP and Halal certifications pending for further market access.

  • Export pathway clear: MCA is awaiting final approval for China market entry, which would open access to the world's largest seafood consumption market where Australian premium products are highly valued.

MCA’s Natural Advantage

  • Native species thriving: Murray Cod is perfectly adapted to Australian conditions and actually benefits fromthe warmer temperatures that challenge salmon, with optimal growth at 23-27°C.

  • Proven production model: MCA's free-range pond system has achieved 198% year-on-year biomass growth to 2,481 tonnes, with infrastructure in place to reach 4,000 tonnes holding capacity to serve growing per capita consumption.

  • Circular economy operating: The company recycles pond water to crops and pastures, potential to create additional revenue streams while maintaining environmental sustainability.

  • Premium positioning secured: With Australians consuming 20.7kg of seafood annually and seeking sustainable alternatives to challenged salmon supply, MCA's premium Murray Cod is ideally positioned.

With Australian seafood consumption at 20.7kg per capita and growing, MCA's operation is positioned to fill the premium protein gap. Improving growth through selective breeding, better feeding technology, and full vertical integration from hatchery to plate offers investors exposure to a sustainable, scalable luxury protein producer.

Sustainabilit & Social Re ort y p

==> picture [30 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

At MCA, we’re challenging ourselves to continually improve our sustainability performance for our planet and our people. Refining our approach as we learn, innovate and grow.

As stewards of sustainability, here are our key strengths:

Full traceability

Aquna is fully-traceable through all stages of farming, processing and distribution. With control over quality through all stages for improvement, as well as verify our sustainability practices.

Whole-fish philosophy

In line with our whole-fish philosophy, we’re focusing on waste minimisation research initiatives with biotechnology companies to help us maximise the yield from one single fish. In 2023, we launched our world-first Aquna Gold Murray Cod caviar.

Commitment to quality

We’ve been recognised as a trailblazer in the aquaculture industry for our commitment to sustainable practices and quality, winning multiple esteemed awards (see appendix), including gold medals at reputable Australian food shows.

==> picture [47 x 53] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [40 x 47] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [205 x 222] intentionally omitted <==

Feeding our fish We’re working on reducing marine products and assessing novel ingredients on our feeds, all while optimising fish growth and health. Our ultimate goal is to grow fish using the least amount of feed to produce the maximum amount of protein.

Efficient water usage Our farms are designed so we can re-use the nutrient-rich water from our ponds on crops and pastures. Re-stocking We borrow brood fish from the wild to breed fish for government re-stocking programs. Through this initiative, millions of fingerlings have been bred and released to help increase populations of Murray cod in their natural habitat.

Managing organic waste Research and development of by-products is a priority that aligns with our whole-fish philosophy to minimise waste. We partner with local businesses, to ensure no organic waste from our processing facility is sent to landfill.

Key Initiatives

  • Circular Economy: Pond water can

  • 1 irrigate adjoining farmland

  • Native Restocking: 1.3m fingerlings to

  • 2 waterways

  • Feed Innovation: Reducing marine ingredients

It’s a luxury food – not a commodity

==> picture [383 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • Aquna Sustainable Murray Cod is one of the rarest fine dining fish in the world;

  • Is native only to Australia;

  • No commercial fishing allowed;

Land-based Production

Biosecurity – allows for better control.

  • Each pond is isolated, with dedicated piping, wiring and catchment zone;

  • MCA monitors and controls water quality, the delivery of feed and dissolved oxygen levels.

  • Most other high quality white fleshed fish are wild-catch and quotas are steadily reducing;

Environmental

  • Nutrient enriched water is used to irrigate adjoining crops and pastures;

  • Anecdotally chefs rate the fish between coral trout and Patagonian toothfish;

  • Very low water usage compared to other crops or livestock.

  • Market recognition of quality is leading to higher farm gate margins; and

  • Still priced lower than competing white fleshed fish – room for margin growth.

Lower Costs – cost control, limited cost base variability.

  • NO ships required – limiting maintenance costs;

  • NO bad weather variability- stopping work;

  • NO seals or sharks or other variable threats;

  • NO boats to ferry staff to site

  • Calm fresh water - less unanticipated maintenance or damage;

  • Less “Red Tape”

Of the 57m tonnes of finfish produced by aquaculture in the world, 49m tonnes or 85% were produced from inland aquaculture
