GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Introduction
The Director presents the Strategic Report of Konexus Holdings Limited ("KHL" or the "Group") for the year ended 31 December 2025.
KHL is a holding company for the Konexus Resouces Group, which is an international commodities, manufacturing and supply chain business with activities spanning metals, agriculture and energy markets. The Group combines physical commodity trading, processing, manufacturing and logistics capabilities across a growing network of operations and commercial relationships in the Middle East, Asia, Europe, Africa and North America.
The Group's strategy is centered on building integrated supply chain businesses in essential commodity sectors. This typically involves establishing market positions through trading activities, developing long-term sourcing and customer relationships, and selectively investing in value-added processing and manufacturing assets that enhance margins, strengthen supply chain control and create sustainable long-term value.
During the year, the Group continued to expand its operating platform, investing in manufacturing capacity, new business lines, strategic supply relationships and organizational capabilities to support future growth. Further details of the Group's performance, principal risks, financial results and strategic priorities are set out in the sections that follow.
The Group transitioned its financial reporting framework from UK GAAP to International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the United Kingdom ("IFRS") during the year. This aligns the Company's reporting with international best practices and the broader Group's reporting framework. Details of the impact of the transition are provided in the notes to the financial statements.
Business Review
In 2025, the base metals industry operated in an increasingly complex and uncertain environment. Ongoing conflict in Ukraine, continued instability in the Middle East, and rising geopolitical tensions across key trade corridors created significant challenges for global supply chains. In particular, the escalation of conflict in the Red Sea region during the first quarter of 2025 caused widespread disruption to international shipping routes, extending transit times, increasing freight costs, and forcing many market participants to rethink their logistics strategies. At the same time, energy markets remained volatile, governments increasingly sought to secure strategic resources, and supply discipline among major producers continued to influence metal availability and pricing.
Despite these challenges, underlying demand for industrial metals remained resilient, supported by global investment in power infrastructure, electrification, and the rapid expansion of AI-related data centre capacity. Against this backdrop, the Group delivered a strong performance, increasing turnover from $178 million to $252 million, representing growth of more than 40% year-over-year.
This performance was driven primarily by the first full year of operations at our manufacturing facility in Bahrain and processing facility in Thailand. The successful ramp-up of these businesses reflects the commitment of our employees and validates our strategy of investing in value-added manufacturing capabilities alongside our traditional trading operations. By maintaining reliable production and delivering consistently for our customers during a period of ongoing market disruption, both facilities made a significant contribution to the Group's growth.
During the year, we also continued to invest for the future. We expanded our presence in the agricultural sector, further diversifying the Group's activities and creating new avenues for long-term growth. Equally important, we strengthened our leadership and operational teams across the organization, building the talent and infrastructure required to support the next phase of the Group's development.

GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
A key focus throughout the year was improving the visibility and predictability of our business. We made meaningful progress in increasing the proportion of activity conducted under long-term customer and supplier agreements, reducing exposure to short-term market volatility. We also deepened relationships with several leading global metal producers, strengthening our access to reliable sources of supply and enhancing our ability to serve customers consistently across market cycles. These initiatives have improved the quality of our earnings, increased resilience across our operating platform, and positioned the Group for continued sustainable growth in the years ahead.
Principal risks and uncertainties
Risk management remains central to the business model. As a trader, processor and manufacturer of industrial metals, the Group is exposed to a range of market, operational and financial risks. Our objective is not to speculate on commodity prices, currencies or interest rates, but rather to manage these exposures prudently while protecting margins and preserving capital.
Commodity Price Risk
The Group trades a diversified portfolio of aluminium, copper, lead, alloys and scrap metals. For exchange-traded primary metals, price exposure is generally hedged using futures contracts on recognized commodity exchanges, allowing us to lock in margins between physical purchases and sales. As a result, the Group's earnings are driven primarily by trading and manufacturing performance rather than movements in outright metal prices.
Foreign Exchange Risk
The majority of the Group's business is conducted in U.S. Dollars, which serves as our functional currency. Where transactions are denominated in Euros, Sterling or other currencies, exposures are managed through natural offsets and, where appropriate, forward foreign exchange contracts.
Counterparty Credit Risk
Managing credit risk remains a key priority. The majority of customer exposures are covered through trade credit insurance or secured through bank-backed Letters of Credit. The Group maintains disciplined credit controls and monitors customer exposures continuously to ensure that trading activity remains within approved limits.
Inventory and Logistics Risk
The Group maintains inventory across multiple geographies and regularly transports material through international shipping routes. Physical inventories and goods in transit are protected through comprehensive marine cargo and storage insurance policies designed to safeguard the Group against material losses.
Interest Rate and Financing Risk
The Group utilizes revolving trade finance and working capital facilities to support its operations. While these facilities are generally linked to floating benchmark interest rates, financing costs are incorporated into transaction pricing and managed as part of the Group's overall commercial strategy.

KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
Trade Finance & Working Capital Strategy
The Group's trading and manufacturing activities require access to substantial working capital and trade finance facilities. To support these requirements, the Group maintains a diversified funding structure anchored by its core transaction banking relationship with HSBC, supplemented by additional facilities from other financial institutions and strategic financing partners.
The Group also maintains dedicated credit facilities with its LME brokers to support margin requirements associated with its hedging activities. Combined with favourable supplier payment terms and disciplined inventory management, these facilities allow the Group to efficiently fund inventory, manufacturing operations and customer deliveries while preserving liquidity.
This financing framework provides the flexibility required to support continued growth while maintaining a prudent approach to balance sheet management and risk
Financial key performance indicators
The Group adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) during the current financial year, enhancing the consistency and comparability of its financial reporting.
Revenue
Revenue increased from $178.0 million to $252.0 million, representing growth of 41.6% compared with the prior year. This increase was driven primarily by the first full year of operations at the Group's manufacturing facility in Bahrain and processing facility in Thailand, both of which achieved strong utilization levels and contributed meaningfully to overall performance.
Operating Profit
Operating profit for the year was $5.99 million. This result reflects disciplined cost management, improved operational efficiency and the successful integration of our manufacturing and processing activities. Gross profit increased to $12.66 million despite continued volatility in energy, logistics and raw material markets.
The year also included continued investment in the development of the Group's agricultural trading business, which remains in the growth phase of its evolution. While this investment impacted current-period profitability, management believes the business offers attractive long-term opportunities to diversify earnings and enhance overall margins. As the platform matures, we expect increased scale, improved sourcing capabilities and deeper customer relationships to contribute positively to both gross profit and operating earnings.
Other key performance indicators
Financing and Risk Management
Net finance costs of $4.97 million reflect the funding requirements associated with a rapidly expanding trading and manufacturing platform. During the year, the Group maintained substantial working capital facilities to support higher transaction volumes, inventory requirements and hedging activities across multiple jurisdictions.
While financing costs increased alongside the growth of the business, management views this as a natural consequence of scaling operations and establishing a broader banking and trade finance infrastructure. As the Group continues to grow, strengthen its balance sheet and deepen relationships with existing and new lending partners, management expects to secure additional funding capacity on increasingly competitive terms. This should support future growth while contributing to improved profitability and returns on capital over time.

KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED
GROUP STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The Group continues to maintain dedicated facilities to support hedging operations and working capital requirements, ensuring adequate liquidity is available throughout periods of market volatility and market disruption.
Working Capital
Current assets at year-end totaled $94.25 million, including inventories of $48.93 million and trade receivables of $38.6 million. These balances reflect the increased scale of the Group's operations and are supported by established trade finance facilities, disciplined credit management and strong supplier relationships.
Strategic Priorities and Future Growth
As the Group enters its next phase of development, our strategy remains focused on building integrated supply chain businesses that combine trading, processing and manufacturing capabilities. Over the past several years, we have successfully executed this model within the metals sector, establishing strong trading operations before investing in value-added processing and manufacturing assets that enhance margins, deepen customer relationships and create long-term competitive advantages.
The continued expansion of our aluminium rod manufacturing facility in Bahrain remains a key strategic priority. Once completed, annual production capacity will increase from approximately 36,000 tonnes to 90,000 tonnes. Land acquisition has been completed, key equipment orders have been placed, and project execution is progressing according to plan. This investment represents the next stage in our evolution from a trading-focused business toward a more diversified industrial platform with greater exposure to value-added manufacturing.
Beyond metals, we are applying the same proven approach to the agricultural sector. Over the past year, the Group has expanded its agricultural trading activities and strengthened relationships across the supply chain. Building on this foundation, the Group is progressing the development of a strategically important flour milling and food security project in Bahrain. The project has received all necessary approvals and is currently under development. Once operational, it will establish the Group's first major agricultural processing asset and represents an important milestone in the expansion of our agri-business platform. The project is expected to support Bahrain's long-term food security objectives while creating new opportunities for growth and value creation within the Group.
The Group is also pursuing opportunities within the energy transition sector through its operations in Thailand. Leveraging our existing commodity trading capabilities and local market presence, the Group has begun expanding into biomass and renewable energy feedstocks. As with our metals and agricultural businesses, our initial focus is on developing trading and supply chain expertise before selectively investing in processing and manufacturing capabilities where we believe sustainable competitive advantages can be established. Over time, we believe the biomass sector offers significant opportunities as global demand for renewable fuels, sustainable industrial feedstocks and lower-carbon energy solutions continues to grow.
Supporting these growth initiatives is our ongoing investment in people, systems and commercial capabilities. During the year, we strengthened our management team and expanded our regional trading presence to support new markets and business lines. We also continued to deepen relationships with major producers, customers, logistics providers and financial institutions, creating a stronger platform from which to pursue future growth.
While each of these businesses operates in distinct markets, they are united by a common strategy: establishing strong positions in essential commodity supply chains, building scale through trading activities, and selectively investing in value-added infrastructure that enhances margins, improves supply chain control and creates sustainable long-term shareholder value.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the financial statements is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), as adopted by the United Kingdom.

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) 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 Group and the Parent Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
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.

We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the Parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Group strategic report or the Director's report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
∙adequate accounting records have not been kept by the Parent Company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
∙the Parent Company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
∙certain disclosures of director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or
∙we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the director's responsibilities statement on page 7, the director is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the director determines 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 director is responsible for assessing the Group's and the Parent 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 the director either intends to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
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 (UK) 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
∙We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the Company and determined that the most significant are directly relevant to specific assertions in the financial statements are those that relate to the reporting framework (UK adopted international accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006), the relevant tax compliance regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Group operates, Health and Safety Regulations, Bribery Act and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
|
|
KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED (CONTINUED)
∙We understood how the Group is complying with those frameworks through enquiry with management, and by identifying the Group’s policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations. We also identified those members of management who have the primary responsibility for those ensuring compliance with laws and regulations, and for reporting any known instances of non-compliance to those charged with governance.
∙We assessed the susceptibility of the Group's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur by reviewing the Group’s risk register, enquiry with management of the Group during planning and execution phases of the audit. We relied on those procedures performed during the audit and followed up with enquiries of management on any new developments during the audit of the Group and Parent Company.
∙Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations. Our procedures involved:
°Inquiry of members of senior management, and when appropriate those charged with governance regarding their knowledge of any non-compliance or potential non-compliance with laws and regulations that could affect the financial statements.
°Reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
°Obtaining and reading correspondence from legal and regulatory bodies; and
°Journal entry testing, with a focus on manual journals and journal indicating large or unusual transactions based on our understanding of the business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1.Accounting policies
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities (including structured entities) controlled by the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the Company:
∙has power over the investee;
∙is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
∙has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.
The Company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company's voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:
∙the size of the Company's holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;
∙potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties;
∙rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
∙any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have, the current ability to direct the relevant activities at this time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders' meetings.
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, income and expenses of a subsidiary acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with the Group's accounting policies.
All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses, if any.
For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units (or groups of cash-generating units) that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss for goodwill is recognised directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
On disposal of the relevant cash-generating unit, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group recognises revenue when it transfers control over a product or service to a customer.
The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised goods or services to the customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the transaction prices for the time value of money.
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Foreign currency translation
|
Functional and presentation currency
The Company's functional and presentational currency is USD.
Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the spot exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
At each period end foreign currency monetary items are translated using the closing rate. Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and non-monetary items measured at fair value are measured using the exchange rate when fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss except when deferred in other comprehensive income as qualifying cash flow hedges.
On consolidation, the results of overseas operations are translated into Dollars at rates approximating to those ruling when the transactions took place. All assets and liabilities of overseas operations are translated at the rate ruling at the reporting date. Exchange differences arising on translating the opening net assets at opening rate and the results of overseas operations at actual rate are recognised in other comprehensive income.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation.
All other borrowing costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Government grants are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants are recognised in profit or loss on a systematic basis over the periods in which the Group recognises as expenses the related costs for which the grants are intended to compensate. Specifically, government grants whose primary condition is that the Group should purchase, construct or otherwise acquire non-current assets are recognised as deferred revenue in the consolidated statement of financial position and transferred to profit or loss on a systematic and rational basis over the useful lives of the related assets.
Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.
The benefit of a government loan at a below-market rate of interest is treated as a government grant, measured as the difference between proceeds received and the fair value of the loan based on prevailing market interest rates.
|
|
Contributions from employees to third parties to defined benefit plans
|
Discretionary contributions made by employees or third parties reduce service cost upon payment of these contributions to the plan.
When the formal terms of the plans specify that there will be contributions from employees or third parties, the accounting depends on whether the contributions are linked to service, as follows:
∙If the contributions are not linked to services (e.g. contributions are required to reduce a deficit arising from losses on plan assets or from actuarial losses), they are reflected in the remeasurement of the net defined benefit liability (asset).
∙If contributions are linked to services, they reduce service costs. For the amount of contribution that is dependent on the number of years of service, the entity reduces service cost by attributing the contributions to periods of service using the attribution method required by IAS 19 paragraph 70 for the gross benefits. For the amount of contribution that is independent of the number of years of service, the entity reduces service cost by attributing contributions to the employees’ periods of service in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 70.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
Current and deferred taxation
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from ‘profit before tax’ as reported in the consolidated Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income because of items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's current tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
Deferred tax balances are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except that:
∙The recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits;
∙Any deferred tax balances are reversed if and when all conditions for retaining associated tax allowances have been met; and
∙Where they relate to timing differences in respect of interests in subsidiaries, associates, branches and joint ventures and the Group can control the reversal of the timing differences and such reversal is not considered probable in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax balances are not recognised in respect of permanent differences except in respect of business combinations, when deferred tax is recognised on the differences between the fair values of assets acquired and the future tax deductions available for them and the differences between the fair values of liabilities acquired and the amount that will be assessed for tax. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
|
|
|
Property, plant and equipment
|
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
If significant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, then they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in profit or loss. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group.
Depreciation is provided on all other items of property, plant and equipment so as to write off their carrying value over their expected useful economic lives. It is provided at the following rates:

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between amounts paid on the cost of a business combination and the acquirer’s interest in the fair value of the Group's share of its identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquiree at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is amortised on a straight-line basis to the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income over its useful economic life.
Stocks consist of ferrous and non-ferrous metals held by the Company and are valued at fair value less costs to sell in accordance with the alternative accounting rules permitted by the Companies Act 2006 and with the provisions of IAS 2. The entity operates in an active metal market and there is a liquid market for the stock on the London Market Exchange (LME).
All metals are valued at period end closing values as published by the London Market Exchange (LME), an internationally recognised and readily available pricing mechanism. Any changes in fair value are recognised in the profit and loss account in the period in which they occur.
Post period-end diminution in value will only be considered as an indicator of impairment of metal stocks to the extent that the total diminution of metal stocks is material after considering the derivative contracts on metals in place at the year end. In other words, impairment is only considered to the extent the Company has a net metal stock exposure.
|
|
|
Cash and cash equivalents
|
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, together with other short-term, highly liquid investments maturing within 90 days from the date of acquisition that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Short-term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value, net of transaction costs, and are measured subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
1.Accounting policies (continued)
Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).
When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when a Group entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
|
|
|
Derivative financial instruments
|
The Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts, interest rate swaps and cross currency swaps.
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship.
Derivatives embedded in non-derivative host contracts that are not financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 (e.g. financial liabilities) are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not measured at FVTPL. Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts that contain financial asset hosts within the scope of IFRS 9 are not separated. The entire hybrid contract is classified and subsequently measured at either amortised cost or FVTPL as appropriate.
Dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. In the case of interim dividends to equity shareholders, this is when declared by the directors. In the case of final dividends, this is when approved by the shareholders at the AGM.

Non-controlling interests
|
For business combinations completed prior to 1 January 2010, the Group initially recognised any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquiree's net assets. For business combinations completed on or after 1 January 2010 the Group has the choice, on a transaction by transaction basis, to initially recognise any non-controlling interest in the acquiree which is a present ownership interest and entitles its holders to a proportionate share of the entity's net assets in the event of liquidation at either acquisition date fair value or, at the present ownership instruments' proportionate share in the recognised amounts of the acquiree's identifiable net assets. Other components of non-controlling interest such as outstanding share options are generally measured at fair value. The Group has not elected to take the option to use fair value in acquisitions completed to date.
From 1 January 2010, the total comprehensive income of non-wholly owned subsidiaries is attributed to owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests in proportion to their relative ownership interests. Before this date, unfunded losses in such subsidiaries were attributed entirely to the Group. In accordance with the transitional requirements of IAS 27 (2008), the carrying value of non-controlling interests at the effective date of amendment has not been restated.
The consolidated financial statements of Konexus Holdings Limited (the "Company") and subsidiaries (the "Group") for the year ended 31 December 2025 were authorised for issue in accordance with a resolution of the board of directors.
The Company is a private limited company by shares and registered in England and Wales. The registered office of the Company is 14 Brook's Mews, London, W1K 4DG. The entity is domiciled and incorporated in the United Kingdom ("UK").
The Group is primarily involved in the buying and selling of metal and pulses commodities.

KONEXUS HOLDINGS LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The Group's consolidated and the Company's individual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards and Interpretations as adopted by the UK (collectively IFRSs). They were authorised for issue by the Company's board of directors on 19 June 2026.
Details of the Group's accounting policies, including changes during the year, are included in note 1.
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption available under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and elected not to present its own Statement of comprehensive income in these financial statements.
In preparing these financial statements, management has made judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively.
The areas where judgments and estimates have been made in preparing the consolidated financial statements and their effects are disclosed in note 4.
Transition to International Financial Reporting Standards
For all accounting periods up to and including the year ended 31 December 2024, the Group prepared its financial statements in accordance with UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice ("UK GAAP"). These financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 are the first to have been prepared using IFRS. The impact of the transition to IFRS on 1 January 2024 is shown in 3.1 and 3.2 below.
Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As part of the assessment of the appropriateness of adopting the going concern basis when preparing the financial statements, the director has considered the current strength of the Group’s liquidity, recent trading performance indicators and the potential impact of forecast scenarios on the Group’s financial position over the period of its assessment. The director is confident that the Group has adequate liquidity for the period through to June 2027.
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following items, which are measured on an alternative basis on each reporting date.
|
|
|
|
|
Following the adoption of IFRS, the valuation trade receivables has been treated as the trade receivable amount less the expected credit loss provision as per IFRS 9.

3.Basis of preparation (continued)
|
|
|
|
3.2 Changes in accounting policies
i) New standards, interpretations and amendments effective from 1 January 2024
|
On adoption of IFRS, the Company chose to adopt the Expected Credit Loss approach as set put under IFRS 9. In light of this, the balances within trade and other receivables have been reviewed for the impact of the transition. Upon review of these balances, the transitional impact is not material to the Company or Group financial statements. As a result of this, no transitional restatement has been made within the accounts.
Further to this, following the adoption IFRS, the Company and Group are required to report the capitalisation of leases under IFRS 16. This has also been reviewed for the impact to prior year accounts, and we note that this is also not a material impact to the financial statements. As such, no adjustment has been recognised in relation to operating leases in the prior year.
Per the above, the transition to IFRS has not had a material impact on the financial statements and as such no further disclosures are required within the Company or Group financial statements.

Accounting estimates and judgments
|
|
|
4.1 Estimates and assumptions
|
Stock valuation basis
As described in note 1.12 above the Group values stocks of ferrous and non-ferrous metals at fair value. This policy is in accordance with the alternative accounting rules permitted by the Companies Act 2006 and per IAS 2. This is a departure from the general requirement to value stocks at cost less estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. The Director believe that unless a policy of valuing stocks at fair value is adopted the accounts would not provide a true and fair view.
Stock provisions
There is estimation uncertainty in calculating stock provisions. The Group holds short-term investments as hedging instruments. Stock is reviewed and where necessary provisions are made for any items returned post year end.
Impairment of debtors
The Group makes an estimate of the recoverable value of trade and other debtors. When assessing impairment of trade and other debtors, management considers factors including the current credit rating of the debtor, the ageing profile of debtors and historical experience.
