- CBL International Reports Strong 1H 2026 ResultsCBL International Limited (Nasdaq: BANL) (the “Company” or “CBL”), the listing vehicle of the Banle Group (“Banle” or “the Group”), a leading marine fuel logistics company in the Asia-Pacific region, has announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and declared a special cash dividend of $0.10 per share. 1H 2026 Financial and Operational Highlights - Revenue of $395.59 million, an increase of 49.2% year-on-year, driven primarily by higher marine fuel prices amid geopolitical volatility and secondarily by volume growth. - Sales volume grew 10.9%, supported by the cumulative benefits of multi-year network expansion, successful new customer acquisitions, and progressive customer diversification. - Gross profit increased 140.5% to $6.53 million. Gross profit margin expanded 63 basis points to 1.65% from 1.02% in 1H2025, reflecting the Company’s ability to secure reliable supply and fulfill customer requirements at competitive pricing amid heightened market volatility. - Returned to profitability with net income of approximately $1.50 million, compared with a net loss of $992,000 in 1H2025, mainly attributable to higher sales volumes, improved gross profit margin, continued operating expense discipline, and better operational efficiency. - Global service network expanded to more than 70 ports across Asia Pacific, Europe, Australia, Africa, and Central America, strengthening CBL’s position as a global one-stop marine fuel logistics platform. - In April 2026, acquired a 50.5% majority stake in Green Marine Energy Holdings Limited, expanding upstream into sustainable feedstock distribution and strengthening physical bunker capabilities in Malaysia. - Banking facilities expanded as of June 30, 2026, providing enhanced financial flexibility to support working capital and growth initiatives. - Subsequent events: On July 16, 2026, the Company announced a 1-for-13 reverse share split of its Class A and Class B ordinary shares, effective for trading on July 20, 2026. The reverse share split was effected primarily to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. On August 3, 2026, the Company received notification from Nasdaq that it had regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). - The Company has declared a special cash dividend of $0.10 per share for both Class A and Class B ordinary shares, with a record date of August 28, 2026 and a distribution date of September 18, 2026. Financial Performance Overview The Company reported consolidated revenue of $395.59 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, representing a 49.2% increase from $265.17 million in the same period of 2025. The increase was driven primarily by the surge in global oil prices arising from the escalation of Middle East geopolitical tensions and secondarily by the 10.9% growth in sales volume. Gross profit rose 140.5% to $6.53 million from $2.71 million, while gross profit margin expanded from 1.02% in 1H2025 to 1.65% in 1H2026. This 63-basis-point improvement reflects CBL’s strengthened ability to secure reliable supply and meet elevated customer demand at competitive pricing amid tighter Middle East bunker availability and heightened market volatility. The multi-year investments in network coverage and supplier relationships enabled the Company to capture demand arising from vessel rerouting while protecting and expanding margins. Total operating expenses increased by 2.2% year-on-year to $3.49 million from $3.42 million, demonstrating continued cost discipline. Selling and distribution expenses increased by (+9.6%) in line with higher volumes, while general and administrative expenses remained at the same level as the same period in 2025. The Company recorded operating income of $3.04 million compared with an operating loss of $701,000 in 1H2025, and net income of approximately $1.50 million compared with a net loss of $992,000 in the prior-year period. Strategic Expansion and Operational Excellence CBL’s multi-year strategy of port expansion and supplier development continued to deliver tangible results. As of 30 June 2026, the Company’s global service network had expanded to more than 70 ports, enabling it to serve key global trade routes with competitive pricing and reliable delivery. Asia Pacific remained the primary revenue driver. Elevated bunker demand arising from vessels redirected away from the Middle East toward Far East and intra-Asia corridors was captured through the strengthened regional network. Sales concentration among the top five customers declined to below 60% (compared with 60.4% in 1H2025 and 66.7% in 1H2024), while revenue from the top 12 global container liner customers increased to 68.6% from 60.1%. Customers acquired within the past two years contributed 23.5% of total sales during the first half of 2026. Despite significant geopolitical disruptions—including the escalation of Middle East conflicts involving Iran, threats to close the Strait of Hormuz in March 2026, ongoing Red Sea instability, and the impacts of U.S. tariff policies—CBL demonstrated strong resilience. CBL’s diversified supplier network enabled the Company to secure supplies under constrained conditions and successfully meet elevated customer demand in the Far East and other regions. The overall impact on CBL has so far been limited in negative terms and supported volume growth. It remains the Company’s strict policy to refrain from supplying vessels subject to sanctions, with reference to the United Nations Security Council Consolidated List—a policy upheld rigorously throughout the period. A key strategic development was the April 2026 acquisition of a 50.5% majority stake in Green Marine Energy Holdings Limited. Green Marine operates complementary businesses in sustainable feedstock distribution and licensed bunkering of conventional and biofuels in Malaysian waters. This investment enhances CBL’s upstream capabilities, supports integrated biofuel supply chain development, and strengthens its physical bunker capabilities in Malaysia. Management Commentary and Future Outlook Dr. Teck Lim Chia, Chairman and CEO of CBL International Limited, stated, “Our first half results mark an important milestone. Our return to profitability was driven by the tangible payoff from multi-year investments in our global supplier network and operational capabilities. Despite significant geopolitical disruptions and market volatility, we grew sales volume by 10.9% and expanded our gross profit margin by 63 basis points. The acquisition of a majority stake in Green Marine further positions us upstream in the sustainable fuel value chain and strengthens our physical bunker capabilities in Malaysia. These achievements underscore the resilience of our business model and the effectiveness of our long-term strategy. As regulatory frameworks for maritime decarbonization continue to evolve and customer demand for lower-carbon fuels is expected to strengthen, CBL is well positioned with ISCC certifications, an expanding sustainable energy portfolio, and the Green Marine platform. We remain focused on disciplined cost management, further network expansion, and capturing opportunities across both conventional and sustainable marine fuels to deliver sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value, including through the declaration of a special cash dividend of $0.10 per share.” Looking ahead, CBL expects to: - Further integrate Green Marine’s feedstock distribution and Malaysian bunkering capabilities, while scaling biofuel offerings and exploring LNG and methanol solutions to support customers’ decarbonization goals. - Maintain disciplined cost management, continue to increase operational efficiency and leverage expanded banking facilities and capital markets tools to support working capital, growth initiatives, and potential shareholder return programs. - Remain vigilant regarding geopolitical risks, oil price volatility, U.S. trade policy developments, and regulatory changes, while staying cautiously optimistic about the outlook for the second half of 2026 and beyond. About CBL International Limited CBL International Limited (Nasdaq: BANL) is the listing vehicle of Banle Group, a reputable marine fuel logistics company based in the Asia Pacific region that was established in 2015. We are committed to providing customers with one-stop solution for vessel refueling, which is referred to as a bunkering facilitator in the bunkering industry.

- Focus Graphite Chairman Converts Final C$835,000 Loan to Equity at a Premium to MarketC$0.50-per-share conversion completes longstanding Chairman loan as Focus strengthens its financial position amid growing government and industry support OTTAWA, ON, Aug 18, 2026 - Focus Graphite Inc. (TSXV: FMS) (OTCQB: FCSMF) (FSE: FKC0) ("Focus" or the "Company"), a Canadian developer of high-grade flake graphite deposits and advanced graphite materials for battery, defence and industrial applications, is pleased to announce that Chairman Jeff York, through his holding company JJJY Holdings Inc. ("JJJY Holdings"), has agreed to convert the final C$835,000 outstanding balance of his longstanding loan to the Company into equity at C$0.50 per share. Under the proposed transaction, Mr. York will convert C$835,000 into 1,670,000 common shares of Focus at a deemed price of C$0.50 per share, representing an approximately 11% premium to the Company's C$0.45 closing share price on August 17, 2026. The financing relationship dates back to 2019 and 2020, when Mr. York, through JJJY Holdings, provided significant capital to support Focus and its ongoing activities. By September 30, 2020, amounts due to JJJY Holdings had reached approximately C$3.05 million. Since that time, the balance has been progressively reduced through a series of previously disclosed settlements and equity conversions. The C$835,000 conversion announced today represents the final outstanding balance of Mr. York's longstanding shareholder loan to the Company. The transaction removes the Company's remaining obligation under the longstanding shareholder loan without requiring a cash repayment, preserving capital for its development priorities and further strengthening its financial position. "My decision to convert the remaining balance of my loan into equity reflects my continued confidence in Focus Graphite and the progress we are making across the business," said Jeff York, Chairman of Focus Graphite. "With the loan now fully converted into equity, I am further aligning my interests with our shareholders while strengthening the Company's financial position. Focus has made significant progress across its projects, technology and strategic partnerships, supported by growing government investment, and I remain committed to supporting the Company as we move into the next stage of development." The conversion also follows new federal support for the Lac Knife Graphite Project ("Lac Knife" or the "Project"). On August 17, 2026, Prime Minister Mark Carney announced major clean-energy and critical-minerals investments and specifically identified Focus Graphite's Lac Knife infrastructure project among the strategic pre-development projects being supported through Natural Resources Canada's ("NRCan") First and Last Mile Fund ("FLMF") 1. The federal announcement highlighted pre-construction work for a new transmission line and road connecting Lac Knife to Hydro-Québec's power grid, supporting the development of graphite supply for battery and energy-storage technologies. The final conversion further strengthens Focus's financial profile and preserves capital for its development priorities as the Company advances its Quebec graphite assets, downstream technology and broader commercial strategy. Focus continues to advance Lac Knife, its downstream advanced-materials initiatives and broader commercial strategy amid growing government and industry support for secure, resilient North American critical-mineral supply chains. The shares-for-debt transaction remains subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange. About Focus Graphite Advanced Materials Inc. Focus Graphite is building an integrated graphite platform to supply the industries shaping the future. Through the development of world-class graphite resources, advanced processing technologies and higher-value advanced materials, the Company is positioning itself to support battery, defence, advanced manufacturing and other strategic industries across North America and allied markets. The platform is anchored by the Company's two 100%-owned graphite assets in Quebec. Lac Knife is one of North America's highest-grade feasibility-stage graphite deposits, while Lac Tetepisca is one of the largest identified graphite resources globally. Together with strategic technology partnerships and government-supported innovation initiatives, these assets provide the foundation for a secure, scalable and increasingly integrated graphite supply chain.
