- Dynasty Fine Wines Announces 2026 Interim ResultsFinancial Highlights (Unaudited) (HKD Thousand) Six months ended 30 June 2026 2025 Revenue 83,046 122,775 Gross Profit 30,775 47,277 Profit Attributable to Owners of the Company 496 8,172 Basic Earnings per Share (HK cents) 0.04 0.58 HONG KONG, August 26, 2026 - Dynasty Fine Wines Group Limited (“Dynasty” or “the Group”) (Stock Code: 00828), a premier grape winemaker in China, today announced its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2026. In the first half of 2026, due to weak demand of wine consumption market in the PRC, the Group’s sales of middle to high-end and red wine products declined, resulting in a 32% year-on-year decrease in revenue to HK$83.0 million. Although the impact of revenue decline on profit was partially offset by an increase in other income such as write-off of payables with long ageing and a decrease in administrative expenses, the profit attributable to owners of the Company was approximately HK$0.5 million. Earnings per share of the Company was HK0.04 cents per Share. With the Group’s stronger base of dry white market in coastal regions and the new launch of products of white and sparkling wines in response of the market trend, sale of white wine remained serving as the Group’s primary revenue contributor, though sale of white wine products recorded a decrease when compared with the corresponding period in 2025. Sales of red and white wines products accounted for approximately 28% and 63% of the total revenue respectively for the period (2025: approximately 41% and 54% respectively). The gross margin of red wine products and white wine products during the period were both 38% (2025: 38% and 39% respectively). The overall gross profit margin was 37% during the period (2025: 39%), mainly due to change of product mix at lower prices and margin adaptive to the mass market during the period. The Group has been actively pursuing innovation, embracing the “5+4+N” product strategy, with “N” standing for developing various customised products and continuously creating new products to meet the diverse needs of different Chinese consumer groups. During the period, the Group launched a new gift set product, i.e. Dynasty Chinese Zodiac Commemorative Dry Red Wine for the Bing Wu Year of Horse, integrating with the Chinese zodiac culture and the leading rise of Chinese-style fashionable products, by presenting the zodiac culture in a youthful visual language to attract potential consumers. At the same time, the Group continued carrying out activities “Dragon Across the Universities ” in different universities and colleges to promote wine culture, further broadening the brand’s awareness and reputation among young people. Based on its existing high-quality products, the Group continues to introduce new products and promote product upgrades. The Group participated in the 114th China Food & Drinks Fair in March 2026 and capitalised on the momentum to launch new products such as “Tipsy series ”, to further improve its product matrix and provide consumers with diverse consumption choices. The "Tipsy Series” forms two distinct product lines: nonalcoholic free-run grape juice beverages and low-alcohol sparkling wines. Its low alcohol content provides a gentle, pleasant buzz, and its sweetness comes solely from the natural sugars of the grapes, authentically showcasing the characteristics of the grape variety and the unique terroir of the region. During the China Food & Drinks Fair, the Group also held wine-tasting events during the fair, where the new muscat sparkling wine and tea-flavoured wine won industry praise for their unique flavour and exquisite craftsmanship. In addition, the Group has continuously expanded the product spectrum by introducing new categories of products for ready-to-drink consumption channels such as craft beer, and cultivated new business growth. The Group also sold chateau wine imported from France and other foreign branded wines in the PRC market through the Group’s existing distribution network to introduce some classic “old world” and “new world” varietals to cater for a market that prefers the taste of foreign premium wines. The two joint venture companies established by the Group in February 2025 made corresponding progress during the period. Regarding Dynasty Jiangsu, as of 30 June 2026, the construction of core section has been basically completed, accounting for approximately 90% of the overall project progress. Production machinery is at a trial run. Apart from construction of winery and testing of machinery, Dynasty Jiangsu has not yet commenced operation. Regarding Dynasty Renhuai, the company continued trading operations in 2026 after encountering a period of fluctuation in the baijiu market in the PRC at its establishment in 2025, the baijiu market is tending to be stable in 2026. Leveraging on the advantages of origin and brand, Dynasty Renhuai is actively expanding channels, promoting product structure stratification and building a diversified product matrix of sauce-flavour baijiu to increase the scale of the segment. The establishment of these new joint ventures aim to implement Dynasty’s strategic plan, further improving the industrial layout, expanding category tracks, tapping into industry potential, creating new performance growth in the long run, and realising the Group’s transformation into a full category, full industry-chain enterprise.

- Focus Graphite and C4V to Evaluate Mine-to-Anode Platform Combining Lac Knife Graphite with C4V's Green Anode TechnologyProgram to evaluate a cleaner, lower-cost and scalable pathway for converting premium Canadian graphite into finished battery-grade anode material in North America Highlights Mine-to-Anode Platform: Focus and C4V have signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding to evaluate an integrated pathway by combining Lac Knife's high-purity graphite concentrate with C4V's Green Anode Technology. Premium High-Purity Feedstock: C4V's Green Anode Technology requires natural graphite concentrate of approximately 98% carbon, a demanding feedstock specification that Lac Knife has demonstrated the ability to meet through conventional flotation. Commercialization Potential: Successful technical validation would establish the foundation for definitive commercial agreements involving technology licensing, downstream manufacturing, customer qualification, strategic partnerships and potential offtake opportunities. Advanced Materials Strategy: The collaboration supports Focus's broader strategy to expand beyond resource development into downstream processing, advanced materials and higher-value segments of the North American supply chain. Strengthening Allied Supply Chains: The collaboration combines Canadian graphite resources with American processing technology to support a secure, scalable and more resilient North American battery materials supply chain. OTTAWA, ON, Aug 26, 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 it has entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Charge CCCV LLC ("C4V"), a U.S.-based battery technology company, to evaluate graphite concentrate from Focus's 100%-owned Lac Knife Project ("Lac Knife" or the "Project") in Quebec using C4V's proprietary automated Green Anode Technology ("Green Anode Technology" or the "Technology"). A North American Mine-to-Anode Platform C4V's Green Anode Technology is designed to convert premium natural graphite concentrate directly into finished coated spherical purified graphite ("cSPG") through a highly automated process designed to reduce water and energy consumption, chemical usage and overall process complexity. Compared with conventional processing routes involving multiple upgrading and purification stages, the Technology is intended to provide a cleaner, more efficient pathway from graphite concentrate to finished battery-grade anode material. C4V has successfully demonstrated the Technology at pilot scale. C4V's broader anode-development experience includes a multi-year program focused on developing high-performance active anode materials using high-purity natural graphite feedstock. The technology has demonstrated successful development and qualification pathways for active anode material and previously supported a binding offtake agreement with a globally recognized U.S. electric vehicle ("EV") and battery energy storage manufacturer ("BESS") for U.S.-produced active anode material, subject to specified development, production and customer-qualification conditions. The commercial pathway ultimately did not proceed as contemplated for reasons unrelated to the technical performance of the underlying anode technology. Focus was not a party to that arrangement. C4V's Green Anode Technology requires a high-purity natural graphite concentrate of approximately 98% carbon, a demanding feedstock specification that Lac Knife has demonstrated the ability to meet through conventional flotation alone. Lac Knife's ability to produce high-purity flotation concentrate has been established through the Company's 2023 NI 43-101 Feasibility Study1 and further validated by its recent 8-tonne pilot-scale program2, announced July 28, 2026, which produced concentrate grading up to 98.7% carbon through mechanical processing, without chemical or thermal purification. Lac Knife is one of North America's highest-grade feasibility-stage graphite deposits. The ability to begin downstream processing with a premium, high-purity concentrate has the potential to reduce processing requirements, reagent and energy consumption, shorten processing times and improve overall manufacturing efficiency. Combined with Lac Knife's favourable purification characteristics, this provides a strong starting point for evaluating a cleaner, more efficient and potentially lower-cost pathway to finished anode material. Under the MOU, the parties intend to complete an evaluation Program (the "Program") to assess the technical and commercial suitability of Lac Knife graphite for processing through C4V's Green Anode Technology. The Program will examine processing performance, product consistency and electrochemical characteristics and evaluate whether Lac Knife's feedstock advantages can translate into a cleaner, more efficient and commercially competitive pathway from mine to finished battery-grade anode material, supporting future customer qualification, downstream product development and potential commercialization opportunities. Richard Pearce, P.E., Technical Advisor to Focus Graphite, commented, "The success of any anode manufacturing process begins with the quality of the graphite feedstock. Higher-purity concentrate has the potential to reduce downstream processing requirements, improve manufacturing efficiency and enhance overall product consistency. Lac Knife has demonstrated exceptional concentrate quality through conventional flotation, making it an outstanding candidate for evaluation within C4V's Green Anode Technology." "For years the anode has been the weakest link in the battery supply chain, dependent on foreign processing and heavy chemistry to reach purity," said Dr. Shailesh Upreti, Chief Executive Officer of C4V. "Our Green Anode Technology was built to change that. C4V successfully demonstrated the technology through an earlier natural-graphite development program that advanced through customer qualification and ultimately supported a commercial agreement with a prominent U.S. EV and BESS manufacturer. We are excited to build on that technical foundation with Lac Knife's exceptional graphite concentrate and evaluate a cleaner, more efficient and scalable North American pathway to finished battery-ready anode material." "North America is moving quickly to secure critical mineral supply chains from raw materials through advanced manufacturing," said Dean Hanisch, Chief Executive Officer of Focus Graphite. "C4V's previous work has demonstrated the commercial interest that can emerge when high-quality natural graphite is successfully advanced into finished anode material. For Focus, the opportunity is to demonstrate that potential with Lac Knife. If successfully validated, this platform could position us for customer qualification, strategic partnerships and potential offtake while helping build a more secure and competitive North American anode supply chain." Building a Higher-Value Graphite Platform Beyond battery anode production, the collaboration also supports Focus's objective of maximizing value across the graphite processing chain. Graphite fines and other material streams generated during anode production may be evaluated as conductive additives for lithium iron phosphate ("LFP") batteries. Previous testing by Focus and C4V demonstrated that conductive additive material produced from Lac Knife graphite improved LFP cathode electrode density relative to baseline materials, highlighting an additional opportunity to improve resource utilization and support the Company's broader zero-waste development strategy. While the Green Anode Technology evaluation is focused on battery anode materials, it represents one component of Focus's broader advanced materials strategy. In parallel, the Company is advancing a chemical-free electrothermal graphite purification process intended to produce ultra-high-purity graphite for battery, defence, nuclear, aerospace, energy storage and other advanced industrial applications. This effort is being advanced through the Company's up to $14.1 million non-repayable funding agreement under Natural Resources Canada's ("NRCan") Global Partnerships Initiative ("GPI"). If successful, the Program could demonstrate a differentiated Mine-to-Anode pathway that aligns with Canada's "Mine-to-Market" critical minerals strategy by converting premium Canadian graphite into finished battery-grade anode material through a cleaner, lower-cost and scalable North American production process. The collaboration reflects Focus's strategy of evolving from a graphite developer into an integrated advanced materials company participating across the battery value chain. Subject to successful technical validation and the execution of definitive agreements, the Program could provide a foundation for expanded commercial collaboration, including technology licensing, downstream manufacturing, customer qualification, strategic partnerships and potential long-term offtake arrangements. The MOU is non-binding, and any future commercial relationship between Focus and C4V will remain subject to successful completion of the Program, definitive agreements and applicable corporate and regulatory approvals.
