Notes to the Financial Statements

for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION

| Orca Computing Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES

| Basis of preparing the financial statements

| These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

| Turnover

| Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes.

| Intangible assets

| Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

| Intellectual property is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of between two and five years.

| Tangible fixed assets

| Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

| Plant and machinery etc | - | between 3 and 5 years

| Investments in subsidiaries

| Investments in subsidiary undertakings are recognised at cost.

| Stocks

| Stocks and work in progress are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

| Taxation

| Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Profit and Loss Account, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

| Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

| Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Orca Computing Limited (Registered number: 12285629)

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued

for the Year Ended 31 December 2025

2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

| Deferred tax

| Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

| Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

| Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

| Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

| The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

| Going concern

| The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. In assessing the appropriateness of this basis, the Directors have considered the Group's cash flow forecasts, available resources, and funding plans for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements.

| The forecasts prepared by the Directors take into account the support of existing shareholders and the expectation of securing additional funding through a future capital raise. The Directors have received positive indications of continued financial support and, based on discussions to date, have a reasonable expectation that the necessary financing will be available within the required timeframe.

| Accordingly, the Directors consider that it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be required if the Group were unable to continue as a going concern.

3. | EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

| The average number of employees during the year was 29 (2024 - 37 ) .

8. | CREDITORS: AMOUNTS FALLING DUE WITHIN ONE YEAR - continued

| Included within the Other Creditors <1Yr balance are convertible loan notes (CLNs) that were issued in several tranches: December 2024, May 2025, August 2025, October 2025 and November 2025. The principal value of the CLNs was £7,145,515 in aggregate. The notes carry a fixed interest rate of 24% per annum and are repayable with a 250% redemption premium on maturity on 13 December 2026 unless redeemed, purchased or converted earlier. There was an exception for the CLNs issued during August 2025 tranche totalling to £1,800,000 with a fixed interest rate of 10% per annum and redemption premium being not applicable but replaced with a discount on conversion price.

| Under the terms of the instrument, the loan notes, the 250% redemption premium, and any accrued interest may (provided a majority of noteholders agree) together be converted into shares upon any of the following events: (a) the final redemption date, or (b) (i) a share sale, (ii) an asset sale, (iii) a change of control, each as defined in the articles of association, (c) a qualifying financing round, a non-qualifying financing round, or an IPO.

| In accordance with FRS 102, the instrument was assessed to contain both a liability and an equity component. The liability component was calculated as the present value of future contractual cash flows discounted at a market rate of interest (15%). The residual amount, representing the value of the conversion option, has been recognised in equity.

| The CLNs were recognised net of the costs incurred in their issue.

| Also included in the Other Creditors <1Yr balance is Advanced Subscription Agreement (ASA), under which investors subscribed £1,000,000 in advance for the future issue of shares in the Company.

| Under the terms of the ASA:

| - the subscription capital bears no interest,

| - it is not refundable or repayable, and

| - it will be automatically applied to subscribe for shares at the relevant subscription price when a conversion event occurs: (a) the longstop conversion date being 13 December 2026 in line with the above CLNs, (b) a sale, IPO, change of control or insolvency event, (c) a qualifying financing round or a non-qualifying financing round.

| The terms of ASA include a MFN (Most-Favoured-Nation) protection: if the Company issues new converting instruments before the longstop date on more favourable economic terms than the ASA, the subscriber may elect to amend the ASA to adopt those terms.

| The number of subscription shares to be issued is calculated by dividing the subscription capital by the applicable subscription price, rounded down to the nearest whole share.

| As at the balance sheet date, the conversion event had not yet occurred and therefore the ASA has been classified as a financial liability in accordance with FRS 102. The liability is measured at the amount of consideration received.

10. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

| Share Options

| Certain eligible management and employees of the company have been granted share options under the Company's Share Option Scheme. There were 45,000 options (2024: 73,000) granted to employees of the company during the year, 10,000 (2024: 36,875) options lapsed and 40,125 options (2024: nil) were exercised. At the end of the year 206,100 (2024: 211,225) options remained outstanding.

| The total charge recognised in the profit and loss account in respect of the scheme for the year was £63,326 (2024: £49,654). This charge has been calculated based on the fair value of the options at the date of grant, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

| Warrants

| In 2024, the Company issued warrants to subscribers to Convertible Loan Notes (CLNs) issued by the Company at that time. These warrants entitle the holders to subscribe for 246,780 shares at an exercise price of £21.77 per share, if exercised prior to the first Realisation to occur (as defined) or, in connection with or at any time following the first realisation to occur, at an exercise price per share equal to the conversion price which would apply to any convertible loan notes being converted as a result of that first Realisation (whether or not any notes are actually converted as a result of that Realisation).

| Realisation is the first to occur of the following:

| (a) an asset sale

| (b) a share sale

| (c) a change of control

| (d) a non-qualifying financing round

| (e) a qualifying financing round

| (f) an IPO or

| (g) the final redemption date of the CLNs

| In the current year, the company issued additional warrants to CLNs holders to subscribe to 8,630 shares on the same terms as for the warrants issued in 2024.

| 203,986 warrants are exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time from (and on more than one occasion) during the period of 10 years commencing on the date of their issue (Exercise Period) and 51,424 warrants are exercisable in whole or in part, at any time (and on more than one occasion) from the date of the conversion of the CLNs until expiry of the Exercise Period.

| The warrants are classified as a liability in accordance with FRS 102 Section 22, as the exercise price of the warrants is variable. The fair value of the warrants is determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant day and is assessed at each reporting date. The total fair value of the warrants at the year end was £28,095 (2024: £39,485), -£11,390 (2024: £39,485) has been recognised as a charge to finance costs during the year due to the combination of the new issue and the fall in price.

| No warrants were exercised during the year.
