Unaudited Financial Results
Beowulf Mining plc reported unaudited financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, showing a consolidated loss before tax of £1,427,410, consistent with the previous year, and a cash balance of £362,020, down from £1,763,718. The company advanced its Kallak Iron Ore Project in Sweden and secured a site reservation for its Graphite Anode Materials Plant in Finland, which is supported by a potential tax credit of €131.5 million. Exploration activities continued in Kosovo, though permit applications remain pending. Beowulf is actively seeking near-term financing to cover operational costs and advance its projects, with potential longer-term funding solutions including the sale of its Vardar subsidiary for €4 million and securing €5 million in equity and a €7 million loan for Grafintec.

Beowulf Mining (AIM: BEM; Spotlight: BEO), the mineral exploration and development company, announces its unaudited financial results for the nine months ended 30 September 2025 (the "Period").
Activities in the Period
Sweden
- The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Jokkmokk Iron Mines AB ("Jokkmokk Iron") continued to advance the Kallak Iron Ore Project ("Kallak") during the Period, in preparation for the completion of the Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") and application for the Environmental Permit.
- Jokkmokk Iron continued to focus on building community and local stakeholder engagement during the Period and held a number of meetings.
- Significant work was undertaken on the transport solution for Kallak's concentrate including completing nature value inventory work along the transport corridor between the mine and the railhead; the initiation of reindeer and wildlife management plans along the Inlandsbanan railway; optimisation of the rail configuration for the project and initial studies on the concentrate handling facilities at the port of Narvik.
- The Company continued to review opportunities to further enhance the project and minimise any environmental impacts including the use of nitrogen-free explosives, and an evaluation of autonomous, fully electric mining trucks.
Finland
- During the Period, Grafintec, the Company's wholly-owned Finnish subsidiary, secured a site reservation in the Keltakallio industrial area in the City of Kotka for the establishment of the Graphite Anode Materials Plant ("GAMP"). The Keltakallio industrial area benefits from exceptional infrastructure including low-cost renewable energy and water, a strategic location and excellent logistics with direct access to Finland's largest container port, the Port of Hamina-Kotka, and skilled local work force.
- During the Period the Company held its first public meeting in Keltakallio to present GAMP to local residents.
- Grafintec applied for a tax credit under the Business Finland managed scheme aimed at promoting large clean-transition investments during the Period. The total potential future Tax Credit amounts to €131.5 million (£114.8 million) over 11 years and will support the development of the GAMP.
- The Rääpysjärvi exploration licence was renewed from 30 September 2025 for three years.
Kosovo
- Exploration activity in Kosovo, undertaken by wholly owned subsidiary Vardar Minerals Limited ("Vardar"), focused on infill soil and grab sampling on the Shala East licence.
- The Shala East licence expired and an application for its renewal was submitted and formally lodged by the Independent Commission for Mines and Minerals ("ICMM") in Kosovo on the 17 August 2025 including a reduction in the licence area of 50%. The application remains pending.
- Licence applications covering the Mitrovica, Viti East, Viti North and Zvecan licence areas, all of which expired during 2024 in accordance with their terms, and the Shala licence which expired on 25 February 2025, have been submitted to the ICMM, and confirmation of receipt has been received. The Board of ICMM, which is responsible for the award of mineral permits, was disbanded by the Government in October 2023 and, although it was reinstated in October 2024, it is working through the backlog of applications and Vardar's permit applications therefore remain pending.
Financial
- The underlying administration expenses of £340,209 in Q3 2025 were lower than Q3 2024 of £408,605. This decrease is primarily due reductions in professional fees of £92,089 (Q3 2024: £102,037), share based payment expense £75,832 (Q3 2024: £100,098) and director and staff costs of £93,846 (Q3 2024: £112,747).
- The consolidated loss before tax for the nine months to 30 September 2025 was £1,427,410 (30 September 2024: £1,384,496) which is in line with the previous year.
- Consolidated basic and diluted loss per share for the quarter ended 30 September 2025 was 0.57 pence (Q3 2024: loss of 1.05 pence).
- £362,020 in cash was held at 30 September 2025 (30 September 2024: £1,763,718).
- Exploration assets increased to £18,355,205 at 30 September 2025 (30 September 2024: £15,586,309)
- The cumulative translation losses held in equity decreased by £1,272,193 in the nine months ended 30 September 2025 to £1,123,741 (31 December 2024: loss of £2,395,934). Much of the Company's exploration costs are in Swedish Krona which has strengthened against GB Pound Sterling since 31 December 2024.
- At 30 September 2025, there were 44,396,743 Swedish Depository Receipts representing 74 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company. The remaining issued share capital of the Company is held in the UK.
Current financial position and funding strategy
Further to the Company's announcement on 26 November 2025 and as the Company noted following the capital raise that concluded in May 2025 ("Capital Raise"), additional funding will be required to complete the Kallak PFS and Environmental Permit application, and to advance GAMP, with the funds from the Capital Raise taking the Company through to early 2026. Therefore, the Company will need to secure additional financing and working capital in the very near term if it is to continue to advance its projects and to cover its costs on a care and maintenance basis. Accordingly, the Company is currently working with its advisers in the UK and Sweden to procure additional near-term financing without the complexity and cost of a rights issue in Sweden. A number of term sheets have been received and discussions are at an advanced stage, however, there can be no certainty that such financing can be obtained or on the terms of any such financing. In the longer-term to finance the completion of the Kallak PFS and Environmental Permit application, and the pilot testing phase for GAMP, Beowulf has been working on a number of potential funding solutions. The objective has been to secure sufficient investment to ensure the projects can be advanced to their next milestones whilst at the same time minimising dilution to existing shareholders.
These potential funding solutions are as follows:
- Beowulf has received a non-binding cash offer of €4 million for its 100% interest in Vardar and is negotiating a Heads of Terms with the proposed buyer. This offer is non-binding and remains subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence by the buyer, however, Beowulf is hopeful that the transaction can be concluded within the coming months.
- Beowulf is seeking to secure separate funding for Grafintec, its wholly owned Finnish subsidiary, both in the form of direct equity into Grafintec and through support from Business Finland. A financial adviser, Grannenfelt Finance Oy, has been appointed in Finland to assist with raising €5 million in equity through the sale of shares in Grafintec. The Company has also applied to Business Finland's Research, Development and Piloting loan scheme for a loan of €7 million. The loan scheme, which is focused on supporting the development and commercialisation of innovative products, services and production methods, can be for up to 70% of eligible project costs, for a period of up to 10 years and carries a low interest rate of three percentage points below the base interest rate, or at least one per cent. It therefore represents an extremely attractive and non-dilutive source of capital. It is hoped that progress will be made on both elements of the Grafintec financing over the coming three to six months.
These potential sources of longer-term funding are anticipated to take up to six months to complete and are currently at non-binding stages, so no assurance can be given that they will successfully complete, or on the final terms of which any such transactions may be completed. Therefore, the Company is seeking to secure short-term funding to provide the Company with sufficient working capital in the interim. To this end the Company has engaged with providers of capital and received a number of term sheets. It is hoped that funding on reasonable terms can be secured.
In addition to the above, the Company continues to review a range of additional funding options including EU-backed schemes and is maintaining dialogue with a number of potential strategic and long-term investors at both corporate and asset level.
Ed Bowie, Chief Executive Officer of Beowulf, commented:
"The Company continues to make meaningful progress across its core assets - Kallak and Grafintec.
"At Kallak, our focus has been on refining the transport solution for the concentrate with baseline environmental and cultural heritage studies being completed along the proposed pipeline route, and studies undertaken on the rail and port facilities. The completion of these studies signifies meaningful progress at Kallak. The team has had regular engagement with local communities and stakeholders continuing our transparent and constructive communication, and preparations for the PFS and submission of the Environmental Permit application are ongoing.
"Securing the site reservation in the City of Kotka is a major step forward for Grafintec. The Kotka region was previously a major centre for the pulp and paper industry and as a result offers excellent infrastructure with access to utilities and Finland's largest container port, a plentiful skilled workforce and a number of brownfield sites that are being assessed for the development of the pilot plant. We have received tremendous support from the Municipality and Cursor, the region's business development agency, for which we are extremely grateful. We would like to thank the members of the public from Keltakallio who joined us for the inaugural public meeting, we look forward to our continued communications and positive engagements.
"In parallel, the Company has been working on securing longer-term funding to progress our core assets through their next key milestones. The proposed sale of Vardar would bring in some non-dilutive capital and enable us to focus the portfolio on our core assets. Separately, Grafintec is now at a development stage that warrants independent funding. Concluding both funding solutions and the interim financing highlighted above, will be extremely positive for the Company. I look forward to updating the market in due course."

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS TO 30 SEPTEMBER 2025
- Nature of Operations
- Basis of preparation
The condensed consolidated financial information has been prepared on the basis of the recognition and measurement requirements of UK-adopted International Accounting Standards (UK-IAS). The accounting policies, methods of computation and presentation used in the preparation of the interim financial information are the same as those used in the Group's audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024.
The financial information in this statement does not constitute full statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the UK Companies Act 2006. The financial information for the period ended 30 September 2025 is unaudited and has not been reviewed by the auditors.
The financial information for the 12 months ended 31 December 2024 is an extract from the audited financial statements of the Group and Company. The auditor's report on the statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 was unqualified and included include a material uncertainty relating to going concern.
On 21 March 2025, in conjunction with the Company's right issue, the Company entered into a short-term bridging loan of SEK 10 million (approx. £0.74 million) with the underwriters of the rights issue to ensure that the Company had sufficient financial resources to continue advancing its projects ahead of the right issue being finalised (see note 6). The bridging loan accrued interest of 1.5% per 30-day period and was repaid using part of the proceeds from the capital raise, noted below.
On 8 May 2025, the Company announced the completion of the capital raise with a total of £2.2 million (SEK 28.1 million) gross raised to fund the development of the Company's assets through their next key valuation milestones. The net funds raised after the loan repayment and share issue transaction costs are £1.25 million (see note 6).
Therefore, at the date of this report, based on management prepared cashflow forecasts, further funding will be required within the very near term to allow the Group and Company to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the Company is currently working with its advisers in Sweden and the UK to procure additional near-term financing. While discussions are at an advanced stage, there are currently no agreements in place and there is no certainty that the funds will be raised within the appropriate timeframe. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt over the Group's and the Company's ability to continue as going concerns and therefore, the Group and the Company may be unable to realise their assets and discharge their liabilities in the normal course of business. The Directors will continue to explore funding opportunities at both asset and corporate levels. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that funding will be forthcoming based on their past experience and therefore believe that the going concern basis of preparation is deemed appropriate and as such the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the Group and the Company were unable to continue as going concern.
