IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT: COMPANY OVERVIEW FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY PURPOSE INVESTMENT STRATEGY AND OBJECTIVES Since its admission to trading on the London Stock Exchange in September 2022, the Company has actively evaluated a number of potential acquisition opportunities consistent with its stated strategy. In August 2025, the Company entered into conditional, non-binding Heads of Terms for the proposed acquisitions of Dotlines Global Plc and Audra Solutions Ltd. These proposed transactions represent a significant step forward in the execution of the Company’s investment strategy and, upon completion, would result in the acquisition of operating businesses with established revenues across Asia and the United Kingdom. Shortly before announcing a potential reverse takeover, the Company requested a suspension of trading in accordance with the UK Listing Rules applicable to cash shells. As a result of this standard procedural step, the Company’s shares were suspended from trading on the London Stock Exchange on 21 August 2025. DIVIDEND POLICY Prior to an acquisition it is unlikely that the Company will have any earnings but to the extent the Company has any earnings it is the Board’s current intention to retain any such earnings for use in its business operations and the Board does not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company will only pay dividends to the extent that to do so is in accordance with all applicable laws and is commercially prudent. The Directors present their strategic report for Ikigai Ventures Limited (the "Company") for the year ended 30 June 2025. The principal activity of the Company is to carry out business as a special purpose acquisition company. The directors of the Company (the "Directors") do not envisage any changes in this activity until such time as an acquisition is made. STRUCTURE The Company is a Guernsey incorporated non-cellular company limited by shares, incorporated on 28 May 2021, with registered number 69265. The Company has a standard listing on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. There are no branches in existence. The Company was incorporated to acquire one or more high-growth businesses in sectors such as healthcare, finance, agriculture, mining, and artificial intelligence, which demonstrate strong ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) credentials. Please refer to the Investment Strategy and Objectives for further information. The Company’s investment strategy remains focused on identifying and acquiring businesses with experienced management teams, strong reputations, and sustainable business models capable of international expansion. While the primary focus is on established and revenue-generating businesses, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) may also consider earlier-stage opportunities where it is satisfied that the target possesses a credible growth plan, differentiated technology or market position, and a capable management team. Page 2

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT: COMPANY OVERVIEW FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 The Company currently has no trading operations or active income-generating activities. Until the completion of an acquisition, its financial resources are used primarily to meet ongoing operating and regulatory expenses. If an acquisition is not completed within the required timeframe, the Company may need to seek additional capital, which may not be available on acceptable terms. The Directors continue to manage operating costs prudently, maintain a disciplined approach to cash management, and review available funding options on an ongoing basis. In August 2025, the Company entered into conditional, non-binding Heads of Terms with Dotlines Global Plc and Audra Solutions Ltd. These transactions, once completed, are expected to introduce profitable operations and strengthen the Group’s capital base. The Directors anticipate completion of the proposed reverse takeover and re-admission to trading of the Company onto the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange by the end of January 2026, subject to the satisfactory conclusion of due diligence, final documentation, and regulatory approvals. MANAGEMENT OF THE COMPANY The Board comprises a majority of independent non-executive directors with extensive knowledge and experience in establishing and growing businesses as well as experience of managing public companies and their operational and financial risks. The Directors are aware of the regulatory and legal framework within which the Company operates, as well as the various roles played by investment companies in shareholders' portfolios. The Board provides oversight of the Company's activities and ensures that the appropriate financial resources and controls are in place to deliver the investment strategy and manage the risks associated with such activities. PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The Directors confirm that they have carried out a robust assessment of the principal and emerging risks and uncertainties facing the Company, including those that would threaten its business model, future performance, solvency, or liquidity. A suitable acquisition opportunity may not be identified or completed The Company’s business strategy and prospects are dependent on the ability of the Directors to identify suitable acquisition opportunities. If the Directors are not able to do so, the Company may not be able to fulfil its objectives. Furthermore, if the Directors identify a suitable target, the Company may not be able to acquire it on suitable terms or at all. Aborting a proposed acquisition could mean that the Company is left with substantial unrecovered transaction costs, potentially including fees, legal costs, accounting costs, due diligence or other expenses that may not allow it to pursue further opportunities. The Directors’ skill and experience of mergers and acquisitions and the careful selection of a suitable acquisition target and of professional advisors will reduce this risk as will the adoption of a break clause in any Heads of Terms agreement entered into with an acquisition target company. Capital adequacy The Board is responsible for the Company's system of internal controls and for reviewing its effectiveness. The principal and emerging risks that have been identified and the steps taken by the Board to mitigate these are as follows: Page 3

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT: COMPANY OVERVIEW FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 The Company operates in an uncertain environment and is subject to a number of other risk factors which are set out in these accounts or in the Company’s IPO prospectus published in September 2022. The Directors have carried out a robust assessment of the risks and how best to mitigate them, although it should be noted that this list is not exhaustive and that other risk factors not presently known or currently deemed immaterial may apply. Should an emerging risk be determined to have any potential impact on the Company, appropriate mitigating measures and controls will be put in place. As a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) or cash shell, the Company does not currently operate in a trading capacity and therefore does not face direct competition in the traditional commercial sense. Its focus is on identifying and completing a suitable acquisition. While there are other listed SPACs with similar objectives, competition is limited to the availability and quality of potential targets rather than to any product or service. Although the Directors will evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target, they cannot offer any assurance that all of the significant risk factors can be identified or properly assessed or that the business acquired will prove to be successful for the growth and profitability of the Company. In particular, the Company will be reliant on the successful business performance of a completed acquisition to generate income and profits. The Board’s experience and skill in company analysis, due diligence and corporate finance are expected to mitigate these risks. Reliance on external advisors Other risks Following completion of the proposed acquisitions, the Company may require additional equity or debt financing to support the growth, working capital, and expansion of the combined business. There remains a risk that such funding may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. The Directors have extensive experience in equity capital markets and corporate finance, and continue to engage with brokers, advisors, and institutional investors in anticipation of potential post-completion funding requirements. The conditional, non-binding Heads of Terms signed in August 2025 for the proposed acquisitions of Dotlines Global Plc and Audra Solutions Ltd represent a key step in positioning the Company to transition from a cash shell to an operating and revenue-generating group. Risks inherent in an acquisition The Directors rely to some degree on external advisors to help identify and assess potential acquisitions and there is a risk that such advisors fail to perform as required. The Board’s experience of working closely with key advisors in previous transactions is key to mitigating these risks. Post-acquisition funding PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES (CONTINUED) Page 4

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT: COMPANY OVERVIEW FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 ADMINISTRATION ARRANGEMENTS RELATED PARTIES PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT AND KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Ashley Charles Paxton Registrar services are provided by MUFG Corporate Markets (Guernsey) Limited, formerly Link Market Services (Guernsey) Limited. For and on behalf of the Board Administration and Company Secretarial Services are provided to the company by CSC Management (Guernsey) Limited (formerly Intertrust International Management Limited). Intertrust Group was acquired by CSC on 07 November 2022 and changed its name to CSC Management on 01 July 2024 as part of the acquisition. The Directors are considered related parties. Please refer to note 9 of the financial statements for further information. The Company is yet to complete an acquisition and so has no operations to which key performance indicators (KPIs) would be relevant. As and when the Company completes its first acquisition, financial, operational, health, safety, and other KPIs will become more relevant and reported upon as appropriate. As a result, the Directors are of the opinion that, other than the maintenance of cash and cash equivalents, analysis using KPIs is not appropriate for an understanding of the business at this time.

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT: CEO'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 Dear Shareholder, I am pleased to present the financial statements for Ikigai Ventures Limited for the year ended 30 June 2025. The Company was incorporated to acquire high growth, scalable businesses operating in sectors such as healthcare, finance, agriculture, mining, and artificial intelligence, with a focus on strong ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) credentials. Our shares began trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange on 15 September 2022 (“Admission”). Since Admission, the Company has reviewed a wide range of potential acquisition opportunities and conducted due diligence on a number of them. In August 2025, I was pleased to announce that Ikigai Ventures Limited signed conditional, non-binding Heads of Terms to acquire Dotlines Global Plc and Audra Solutions Limited – a dynamic technology group headquartered in the UK, with deep ties to Singapore and significant operations in Malaysia – in a proposed GBP67m transaction. The consideration for the proposed acquisitions will be satisfied in full by the issuance of new shares in the Company, with no cash consideration payable. Dotlines has demonstrated strong growth across digital infrastructure, AI-driven cybersecurity, and fintech, underpinned by proprietary platforms and meaningful commercial traction, generating GBP22m in revenue and GBP1.7m EBITDA in 2024. The business has strong fundamentals and a clear global vision. Subject to completion, the combined group intends to move to the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange via a reverse takeover, providing access to capital, a public market profile, strategic M&A flexibility, and a platform for long-term growth. It has been a pleasure working with Matin Mahbubul and the Dotlines team and Audra teams — a business with strong leadership, clear ambition, and proven execution. We look forward to progressing to the next phase of this exciting journey. Financial Review For the year ended 30 June 2025, the Company recorded a reduced net loss of GBP449,653 (2024: GBP482,708), which includes a non-cash accounting charge of GBP76,460 in respect of an equity incentive arrangement that will only become payable in shares upon the successful completion of a reverse takeover. Excluding this charge, the underlying operational loss for the year was GBP373,193, reflecting continued cost discipline and a reduction in overall administrative and advisory expenses. Expenditure during the year was primarily related to maintaining the Company’s Main Market listing and professional advisory costs in connection with its ongoing corporate development activities. The basic loss per share for the year was 2.2 pence. As at 30 June 2025, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of GBP336,399 (2024: GBP738,758), representing the remaining proceeds from the placing at Admission. Subsequent to the year-end, the Company entered into Heads of Terms for a proposed reverse takeover, marking continued progress toward its strategic objective of identifying and completing a qualifying acquisition.

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STRATEGIC REPORT: CEO'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 Strategy and Outlook The Company aims to acquire high growth, scalable businesses in sectors such as healthcare, finance, agriculture, mining, and artificial intelligence, with a focus on strong ESG credentials. While not geographically restricted, the Directors continue to anticipate completing an acquisition in the UK, EU, or Asia-Pacific. The Board is focused on businesses that are: • Founder or entrepreneur-led; • Revenue-generating and of medium cap size; • Demonstrating strong growth potential; or • Positioned to benefit from public company status and the Board’s capital markets experience. The signing of the Heads of Terms for the acquisition of Dotlines represents a material step forward in the delivery of this strategy. The Board remains confident in its ability to complete an acquisition that will provide long-term value for shareholders. Kane Black Chief Executive Officer Ikigai Ventures Limited Page 7

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED DIRECTORS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 GOING CONCERN The Company is a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) admitted to trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. The Company does not currently have trading operations or income-generating activities and continues to pursue its strategy of identifying and completing a reverse takeover of one or more suitable acquisition targets. In August 2025, the Company entered into conditional, non-binding Heads of Terms for the proposed acquisitions of Dotlines Global Plc and Audra Solutions Ltd. While these Heads of Terms are non-binding, the parties remain committed to progressing the transactions, and the Directors are not aware of any reason at this stage why completion will not occur. Subject to final due diligence, documentation, and regulatory approvals, completion would result in the acquisition of operating businesses with established revenues across Asia and the United Kingdom, thereby transforming Ikigai Ventures from a cash shell into an operating group. At the reporting date, the Company held a cash balance of GBP336,399, with total current liabilities of approximately GBP41,536. The Directors recognise that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the successful completion of the proposed RTO or, alternatively, on securing additional funding to meet working capital requirements for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Based on the progress made to date, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that one of these outcomes will be achieved and that the Company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, until the RTO is completed, an element of uncertainty remains regarding its timing and finalisation, which constitutes a material uncertainty that may cast doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In forming this view, the Directors have: - Assessed principal and emerging risks facing the Company, including those which could threaten its business model, performance, solvency, or liquidity. These risks and their mitigation are outlined on pages 3 and 4 above and on pages 9–18 of the Company’s Listing Prospectus. - Considered the current rate of operating expenditure, which is not expected to materially increase until completion of a reverse takeover. - Considered potential transaction-related costs (legal, accounting, due diligence, and advisory fees) that may arise in connection with the proposed acquisitions. While the exact magnitude of such costs cannot yet be determined, the Directors note that the Heads of Terms provide for a break fee of up to GBP350,000, which offers partial downside protection should the transactions not proceed. The Directors further note that certain transaction costs may be met or reimbursed by the target companies from their own resources, or from proceeds of a capital raise undertaken at completion. - Acknowledged residual uncertainty inherent in the timing and execution of a reverse takeover. Should the proposed transactions not complete or should costs exceed projections, the Company may need to seek additional funding through equity or debt issuance. The Directors have ongoing engagement with brokers and institutional investors regarding such potential funding options. Although the transactions remain subject to final documentation and approvals, the Directors consider that the combination of existing cash resources, prudent cost management, the contractual break-fee protection, and the advanced stage of the proposed acquisitions provides sufficient basis to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. Page 13

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED DIRECTORS' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 The Company has no employees, no operating business, no customers and only a limited number of suppliers. The Company currently has a very limited environmental impact but the Directors recognise the Company's environmental responsibilities and will consider the carbon footprint and other environmental impacts of any business that is acquired and investigate measures that may be taken to reduce them. - Consider the likely consequences of any decision in the long term; - Act fairly between the shareholders of the Company; - Maintain a reputation for high standards of business conduct; - Consider the interests of the Company’s employees; - Foster the Company’s relationships with suppliers, customers and others; and - Consider the impact of the Company’s operations on the community and the environment. The Directors believe they have acted in the way most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its shareholders as a whole, and in doing so have regard (amongst other matters) to: The shareholders are vital as they provide the necessary capital for the Company to pursue its purpose and strategy. The Company engages with shareholders by publishing the Interim Report and Annual Report and through interaction at the AGM. This provides the shareholders with relevant information allowing them to make informed decisions about their investments. The pre-revenue nature of the business as a shell, prior to the completion of its acquisition strategy, is important to the understanding of the Company by its shareholders and suppliers, and the Directors have been transparent about the cash position and funding requirements. The Directors are collectively responsible for the decisions made towards the long-term success of the Company and how the strategic, operational and risk management decisions have been implemented throughout the business is detailed in the Strategic Report on pages 2 to 4. As an investment company with no employees, the Company is reliant on its service providers to conduct its business. The Board receives formal reports from its key services providers at regular intervals. There is also frequent informal interaction with the key services providers. This enables the Directors to receive appropriate and timely guidance and facilitates the effective running of the Company. The Company recognises the benefits from the greater good for the wider community and environment that comes from all companies being good social citizens. The Company's investment strategy and objective is directly aligned with supporting innovative businesses with a strong ESG strategy. TO PROMOTE THE SUCCESS OF THE COMPANY Page 14

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 APPLICABLE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODES ANTI-BRIBERY POLICY The Directors recognise the importance of sound corporate governance and follow best practice requirements wherever possible. The Directors consider the Quoted Companies Alliance Corporate Governance Code for Small and Mid-Sized Companies (the “QCA Code”) is the most appropriate corporate governance code, so far as is practicable, given the Company’s size and nature, to comply with certain aspects of the QCA Code from the date of admission. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT However, the Company is still at an early stage of development and is in the process of developing its systems, strategy and standards to permit it to comply fully with the QCA Code. Once it has completed its first acquisition, it will re-consider how to comply with the QCA code fully. To demonstrate the Company’s adherence (where practical) to the QCA Code, the Company holds regular board meetings as well as ad hoc meetings as issues arise which require the attention of the Board. The Board is responsible for the management of the business of the Company, setting the strategic direction and establishing the policies of the Company. It is the Directors’ responsibility to oversee the financial position of the Company and monitor its business and affairs, on behalf of the shareholders, to whom they are accountable. The primary duty of the Directors is to act in the best interests of the Company at all times. The Board also addresses issues relating to internal controls and the Company’s approach to risk management. The Board is satisfied that it has the experience and sufficient training and qualifications to operate the business at this early stage. More detail on adherence to the QCA Code will be disclosed in future annual reports, once the Company completes an acquisition. The Directors have undertaken to operate the business in an honest and ethical manner, and accordingly, take a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption, including the facilitation of corporate tax evasion. The key components of this approach are as follows: - The Directors are committed to acting professionally, fairly, and with integrity in all its business dealings and relationships; - The Company implements and enforces effective procedures to counter bribery; and - The Company requires all its service providers and advisers to adopt equivalent or similar principles. General statement The Directors have considered how the principles and provisions of the QCA Corporate Governance Code have been applied by the Company and has reported against this Code. Page 17

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 APPROACH TO ESG CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY TENURE POLICY INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION The Directors believe that as the Company correctly delegates its its day-to-day administrative operations to a third-party (which are monitored by the Directors), it does not require an internal audit function. REMUNERATION COMMITTEE Directors remuneration is shown below and in note 9 to the financial statements. Due to the size of the Company and Board, the Board does not feel that a remuneration committee is required at this time. The Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rule 9.8.4R requires that the Company includes certain information relating to arrangements made between a controlling shareholder and the Company, waivers of Directors' fees and long-term incentive schemes in force. Relevant disclosures are made in notes 9 and 10 to the financial statements. DISCLOSURES REQUIRED UNDER LR 9.8.4R The Company is a special purpose acquisition entity so its own direct environmental and social impact is minimal. The Company has chosen to focus on ESG within its investment strategy. The Company, in common with most investment companies, relies substantially on outsourced providers. Therefore, the Board's principle focus is centered around governance, ensuring that appropriate ESG policies and a sustainable investing approach is followed as well as monitoring and measuring the Company's service providers future progress towards ESG objectives. However, the Board also wants to ensure the Company makes a positive impact, for example by minimising its own carbon footprint. Both the Company and its service providers are evolving their approach. The Company aims to conduct its business with honesty, integrity and openness, respecting human rights and the interests of shareholders and all stakeholders. The Company aims to provide timely, regular, and reliable information on its business to all its shareholders and conduct its operations to the highest standards. Once the Company makes an acquisition and has employees, it aims to establish a diverse and dynamic workforce with the experience and knowledge of relevant business operations and the markets in which we intend to operate. When considering its composition, the Board is strongly committed to striking the correct balance between the benefits of continuity, experience, and knowledge and those that come from the introduction of Directors with diversity of perspectives and skills. At present, it is not considered necessary to appoint additional directors but the Board will consider carefully the optimal Board composition when the first acquisition is made by the Company.

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION BOARD COMMITTEES CONFLICTS OF INTEREST Due to the Company’s early stage and small size, the Board does not consider it appropriate to create any committees, including a nomination, audit, risk or remuneration committee. All relevant responsibilities are undertaken by the Board as a whole. The Board will reconsider this once the Company’s initial acquisition is completed. None of the Directors currently has any potential conflict of interests between their duties to the Company and their private interests or other duties. All Directors have the capacity to devote adequate time to their roles on the Board. None of the Directors are employed by the Company on a full-time basis and, as such, conflicts may arise in the future as a Director may allocate a portion of their time to other businesses leading to the potential for conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to the Company’s affairs. All of the Directors other directorships are fully disclosed and such disclosures are updated regularly. The Board’s aim is to ensure that the benefits of diversity are a significant consideration in all recruitment. The Company will actively consider the diversity of the Board when making future appointments. The Board currently consists of two men (including the chief executive) and one woman. The Company has no employees. The Board recognises that diversity includes racial, socio-economic and other factors, and that different backgrounds and experiences can bring real value to the Company in terms of decision-making. The Board does not have any specific diversity targets in mind, given the range of factors that this term necessarily covers and its early stage of development, and its main priority will always be to appoint the most appropriate candidate for any role. The Company has not met the targets on board diversity set out in the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rule 9.8.6R (9). As there are only three Directors, the target of 40% of directors being women has not been met and none of the Directors are from an ethnic minority. However, given the size of the Company and that it has no business or income at this stage, it is not considered appropriate to appoint any more directors at this time. The Board confirms that, in future, when the activities of the Company require an increase in the number of Directors, or change to the Board’s composition, the diversity targets set by the Financial Conduct Authority will be considered prior to any new appointments.

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS Ashley Charles Paxton As Director of Ikigai Ventures Limited Date: The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the Company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. Company (Guernsey) law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the Directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the applicable Guernsey law and International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ("IFRS "). Under company law the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit or loss of the Company for that period. The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended. The Directors are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. The Directors are responsible for ensuring that the annual report and financial statements include the information required by the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority (together, the "Rules"). They are also responsible for ensuring that the Company complies with the provision of the Rules which, with regard to corporate governance, require the Company to disclose how it has applied the principles and complied with the provisions of the corporate governance code applicable to the Company. The Directors are responsible for preparing the annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. In preparing the financial statements, the Directors are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business.

Page 23 Independent auditor’s report To the Members of Ikigai Ventures Limited Opinion We have audited the financial statements of Ikigai Ventures Limited (the Company), which comprise the statement of financial position as at 30 June 2025, and the statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements: • give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at 30 June 2025, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union (IFRSs); and • have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Guernsey, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Material uncertainty related to going concern The Company incurred a net loss of £449,653 during the year ended 30 June 2025. As at that date, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the successful completion of the potential reverse takeover (RTO) transaction. We draw attention to Note 2 in the financial statements, which describes the events and conditions that give rise to a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. 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.

Page 24 Key Audit Matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our 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 us, 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. Other than the matter described in the Material uncertainty related to going concern, we have determined that there are no key audit matters to be communicated in our report. Our Application of Materiality Materiality for the financial statements as a whole was set at £9,000, determined with reference to a benchmark of net assets, of which it represents 4%. In line with our audit methodology, our procedures on individual account balances and disclosures were performed to a lower threshold, performance materiality, so as to reduce to an acceptable level the risk that individually immaterial misstatements in individual account balances add up to a material amount across the financial statements as a whole. Performance materiality was set at 70% of materiality for the financial statements as a whole, which is rounded to £6,000. We applied this percentage in our determination of performance materiality because we did not identify any factors indicating an elevated level of risk. We reported to the Board of Directors any uncorrected omissions or misstatements exceeding £450, in addition to those that warranted reporting on qualitative grounds. Other Information The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The Directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 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 course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work 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 in this regard. Matters on which we are required to Report by Exception In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: • proper accounting records have not been kept; • the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; and • we have not obtained all the information and explanations which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, are necessary for the purposes of our audit.

Page 25 Responsibilities of the Directors As explained more fully in the Directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 22, the Directors are responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRSs, and for such internal control as the Directors 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 management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. The Directors are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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 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. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below: • Enquiry of management to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations, including actual, suspected or alleged fraud; • Reading minutes of meetings of the Board of Directors; • Reading compliance reports and key correspondence with regulatory authorities; • Review of legal invoices; • Review of management’s significant estimates and judgements for evidence of bias; • Review for undisclosed related party transactions; • Using analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; and • Undertaking journal testing, including an analysis of manual journal entries to assess whether there were large and/or unusual entries pointing to irregularities, including fraud. A further description of the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report. Other Matters which we are Required to Address We were appointed by Ikigai Ventures Limited on 18 October 2025 to audit the [consolidated] financial statements. There has been no uninterrupted period of engagement to date. The non-audit services prohibited by the FRC’s Ethical Standard were not provided to the Company and we remain independent of the Company in conducting our audit. Our audit opinion is consistent with the additional report to the audit committee in accordance with ISAs.

Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose.

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 1 GENERAL INFORMATION 2 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES 2.1 Statement of Compliance 2.2 Presentation of Financial Statements 2.3 Functional and Presentation Currency 2.4 Financial Instruments 2.4.1 Financial Assets The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The principal accounting policies are summarised below. They have all been applied consistently throughout the year and to the preceding period. The Company initially recognises receivables issued when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Receivables are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Amortised cost is the initial measurement amount adjusted for the amortisation of any differences between the initial and maturity amounts using the effective interest method. Receivables are reviewed for impairment assessment. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held on call with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables principally consist of prepayments which are carried at amortised cost. The Company is a listed company incorporated on 28 May 2021 in Guernsey under the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended and is registered in Guernsey. On 15 September 2022 the Company was admitted to the main market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "IKIV" with shares registered with an ISIN of GG00BPG8J619 and SEDOL of BPG8J61. The address of the Company's registered office is Plaza House, Third Floor, Elizabeth Avenue, St Peter Port, Guernsey, GY1 2HU (further details can be found on page 39) and the Company's registration number is 69265. The functional and presentation currency of these financial statements is Pounds Sterling. The Company's financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. The classification is determined by management at initial recognition and depends on the purpose for which the financial assets are acquired. These financial statements give a true and fair view, comply with the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, as amended and were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU ("IFRS").

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 2 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.4 Financial Instruments (continued) 2.4.1 Financial Assets (continued) 2.4.2 Financial Liabilities 2.5 Equity 2.6 Share based payments Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership or has not retained control of the financial asset. All financial liabilities are initially recognised on the trade date when the entity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Retained earnings represent all current period results of operations as reported in the statement of comprehensive income, reduced by the amounts of dividends declared. Under IFRS 2, a share-based payment is a transaction in which the entity receives good or services either as consideration for its instruments or by incurring liabilities for amounts based on the price of the entity's shares or other equity instruments of the entity. Equity-settled share-based payment transactions are measured at fair value (excluding the effect of non market- based vesting conditions) at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share- based payments is expensed over the vesting period. In September 2022, the Company issued 208,000 warrants with exercise price at 50p per share to subscribe the company’s share at any time during the three years following the date of issue of the warrant. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black Scholes pricing model and the fair value charge of GBP19,398 was not recognised in the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2023 on the ground of materiality level. Further information in relation to the warrant in disclosed in note 3. The Company's trade and other receivables are subject to the expected credit loss model under IFRS 9. As the Company's trade and other receivables consist of prepayments, these are carried at amortised and do not require testing for impairment purposes. Share premium includes any contributions from equity holders over and above the nominal value of shares issued. Any transaction costs associated with the issuance of shares are deducted from share premium. Financial liabilities which includes trade and other payables and are recognised initially at fair value, net of directly attributable transaction costs. Financial liabilities are subsequently stated at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities if payment is due to be settled within one year or less after the end of the reporting period (or in the normal operating cycle of the business, if longer), or the Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the end of the reporting period. Otherwise, these are presented as non-current liabilities. Financial liabilities are derecognised from the statement of financial position only when the obligations are extinguished either through discharge, cancellation or expiration. The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid or payable is recognised in profit or loss. Share capital represents the nominal value of shares that have been issued. Page 32

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 2 SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2.7 Costs and expenses 2.8 Taxation 2.9 2.10 New Standards and Amendments to IFRS: 2.11 Going Concern Segment Reporting As the Company did not undertake trading operations during the financial period - it operates as a single segment. Following completion of the proposed acquisitions, the Company will review its segment reporting framework to ensure compliance with IFRS 8 and provide appropriate disclosure of operating segments in future reporting periods The Company is currently progressing the completion of a proposed reverse takeover (RTO) transaction. Since the year end, the Directors have continued constructive discussions with the counterparties, and the Board considers completion of the RTO to be probable within the foreseeable future. The Directors recognise that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the successful completion of the proposed RTO or, alternatively, on securing additional funding to meet working capital requirements for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Based on the progress made to date, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that one of these outcomes will be achieved and that the Company will have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Nevertheless, until the RTO is completed, an element of uncertainty remains regarding its timing and finalisation, which constitutes a material uncertainty that may cast doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have therefore been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments that might arise if the Company were unable to continue in operation. The Company has assessed all new and amended International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) that are relevant to its operations and effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2024. Following this assessment, the Company concluded that the adoption of these standards and interpretations did not have a material impact on its financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025. Costs and expenses are recognised in profit or loss upon utilisation of goods or services or at the date they are incurred. All finance costs are reported in profit or loss on an accrual basis. The Company is liable to tax at the standard Guernsey rate of 0%. Page 33

IKIGAI VENTURES LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025 3 On 26 April 2024 the Company entered into an equity incentive arrangement with the CEO. Under the terms of that arrangement the Company will issue new ordinary shares to the CEO in exchange for services by the CEO, conditional upon the Company successfully identifying an acquisition target and completing the acquisition of such a target leading to a successful RTO under the listing rules of the London Stock Exchange (an "Acquisition"). The number of new shares to be issued will vary depending on the valuation of the enlarged group following the Acquisition and the number of shares in the enlarged group following the Acquisition which are held by the current shareholders in the Company. Under the terms of the agreement the number of new shares to be issued to the CEO will be between 0% and 10% of the share capital of the Company prior to the Acquisition. Critical accounting estimates and judgements in applying accounting policies The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates which, by definition, will seldom equal the actual results. Management also needs to exercise judgement in applying the Company’s accounting policies. This note provides an overview of the areas that involved a higher degree of judgement or complexity, and of items which are more likely to be adjusted due to estimates and assumptions turning out to be materially different when compared to actual results. Due to the nature of the business, the Directors do not consider there to be any critical accounting estimates and judgements that require to be separately reported. The principal estimates and judgements are as follows: The equity incentive is considered to be in scope of IFRS2, being an equity award with a performance condition. The value of the equity incentive has been estimated at inception based on the Directors’ best estimate of the probability of the performance condition being met and the fair value of the award is recognised over the service period. The principal inputs to the probability adjusted fair value model are as follows: • Range of probable outcomes for achievement of an RTO and the expected size of the RTO transaction – 0% to 50% • Fair value of shares at date of inception - 46.5p. • Service period: the period of approximately 39 months from the date of the agreement to the expiry of 24 months after the Implementation Date (28 July 2024) of the UK Financial Conduct Authority's new Listing Rules for the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange ("UKLR"), which became effective from 29 July 2024 ("Implementation Date") plus one extension of 12 months with the approval of the company’s shareholders. The above estimates will be re-assessed in future accounting periods and the resultant share based payments adjusted accordingly. Based on the above estimates the total share based payment charge to be recognised over the service period would be approximately GBP213,000. The directors did not consider there to be any changes necessary to the estimates as at 30 June 2025. Consequently, a charge has been made of GBP76,460 to these financial statements. Should it transpire that no RTO is successfully executed by the Company then no amount will be paid by it in respect of the equity incentive arrangement and the whole provision will be released back through the Company's Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Providing detailed information on the effective tax rate is not considered to be meaningful and as such, no tax reconciliation has been provided. The total share-based payment charge of GBP19,398 has not been recognised in these financial statements, it was disclosed in prior years. As at the date of signing these financial statements, the warrant has expired.

Diluted loss per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential Ordinary Shares. As at 30 June 2025 (and in accordance with the warrant issued to Strand Hanson on 20 August 2021 as disclosed in note 7), there were 206,800 warrants outstanding which represented 1% of the number of Ordinary Shares in issue. The basic loss per share attributable to shareholders as at 30 June 2025 was GBP0.022, however as the Company has made a loss for the year, any exercise of the warrant would have an anti-dilutive effect and therefore the diluted loss per share has been presented in an amount equal to the basic loss per share.

The main risks to which the Company is exposed are market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The risk management policies employed by the Company to manage these risks are discussed below as follows: Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as equity prices, interest rates and foreign exchange rates will affect the Company's income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters while optimising the return. Given the Company has no income or investments during the reporting period, its exposure to market risk is considered minimal. The Company is not directly or indirectly exposed to any significant price risk. Cash and cash equivalents are interest bearing but not at significant levels and there is no debt.

The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents is mitigated by entering into transactions with counterparties that are regulated entities subject to prudential supervision, with high credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies. Cash and cash equivalents are held with Barclays Bank plc, which at the year end was assigned a credit rating of A by the rating agency Standard and Poor. The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount of the financial assets set out below. Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents as well as outstanding receivables. Currency risk The Company is not exposed to the risk that the exchange rate of its reporting currency relative to other foreign currencies that may change in a manner that has an adverse effect on the fair value, or future cash flows of the Company's financial assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than GBP, as all financial assets or liabilities are denominated in GBP. 11.1.3 Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. This risk can arise from mismatches in the timing of cash flows relating to assets and liabilities. The Company receives funding from its shareholders and does not have significant ad hoc expenses to settle. The Company is currently exposed to general operating expenses and costs associated with the proposed reverse takeover (RTO) transaction. The table below analyses the Company's financial liabilities into the relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the reporting date. The amounts in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances, as the impact of discounting is not significant. Page 39
