Financial Highlights • Revenues - $ 415.2 million compared to $ 852.9 million in the prior period . • Gross profit - $ 141.3 million compared to $ 3 05.6 million in the prior period . • Net loss – $ 178.8 million, compared to $ 68.6 million in the pri or period . • Earnings per stock unit – ( 4 ) cent compared to ( 1 ) cent in the prior period . Business Overview FosRich is primarily a distributor of electrical, lighting, and solar energy products. FosRich aims to differentiate itself from its competitors in the Jamaican marketplace by providing a quality and cost - effective service, and by collaborating with clients on technical solutions. FosRich partners with la rge global brands seeking local distribution such as Huawei, Philips Lighting, Victron Energy, Siemens, NEXANS and General Electric. FosRich has a staff complement of two hundred and forty ( 240 ) people acro ss ten (10) locations in Kingston, Clarendon, Mandeville, and Montego Bay. FosRich also has a team of energy and electrical engineers who offer technical advice and install solar energy systems, solar water heaters, and electrical panel boards. O ur turnover numbers continue to be affected by the substantial fall in solar panel cost on the world markets , which affects our busine s s . With the continuing uncertainties in the USA market, our global partners, in seeking to broaden and deepen their relationships with their non - USA customers, have offered more favourable credit terms to us. This is providing measurable benefits Turn Around Plan s The plans that are being urgently undertaken to return the company to profitability includes the following: 1. Sale and lease - back of real estate. We are currently engaged with our financial partners in a sale and lease - back transaction of our real estate properties. The proceeds of this transaction will be used to liquidate existing loans and provide cash needed to finance inventory purchases for operations . 2. Molynes s uperstore We anticipate commencing activities at our new Superstore by the end of Q3, which will contribute significantly to our top line and cash flows. 3. Inventory rationalisation. We have embarked on plans to further reduce stock items and to optimise our inventory levels . This is expected to bring some levels of cost reduction and improving efficiencies , whilst enabling the team to focus on high - performing products. 4. Administration expenses. While we have been very frugal in our approach to discretionary expenses, we continue to critically review each item before expenditures are approved. 5. Vertical i ntegration s trategies We are pursuing opportunities and partnering with property developers, with a view to maximizing the use of our products and services in real estate developments. We anticipate significant increase in sales from this initiative.

The company continues to proactively manage inventory balances and the supply - chain, with a view to ensuring that inventory balances being carried are optimised, relative to the pace of sales, the time between the orders being made and when goods become available for sale, to avoid both overstockin g and stock - outs. Monitoring is both at the individual product level and by product categories. Receivables We continue to actively manage trade receivables with an emphasis being placed on balances in the over 180 - day bucket. We have implemented strategies to collect these funds as well as to ensure that the other buckets are managed. W e have re - evaluated all credit relationships . Where necessary , credit limits have been reduced , and credit periods shortened. For some inventory items , we have instituted seven (7) day credit or cash. Trade Payables Our trade payables are categorised by foreign purchases, local purchases and other goods and services. While we have concentrated primarily on the foreign payables, as the bulk of our inventories are sourced from overseas. we continue to manage payables , for the most part, within the terms given by our suppliers. Non - current Liabilities Non - current liabilities have reduced by $ 26 million due to the run - off and maturing of facilities. Shareholders’ Equity Shareholders’ equity now stands at $ 1, 314 million , compared to $1, 493 million on 31 December 202 5 . Other Matters We are cognizant that despite the challenges ahead within our local operating space and the wider global space, we have the right talents and leadership to deliver on our plans for the ensuing period. We will continue to execute our plans to ensure that we remain competitive and deliver value solutions to our customers. As we report on the performance of FosRich, we thank our shareholders, employees, customers, and other stakeholders for their support as we continue to expand our business and bring greater value to our various stakeholders.

Accounting Policies The accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements have remained unchanged since the last audit and the account classifications have also remained the same. Standards, interpretations, and amendments to existing standards that became effective after 1 January 202 6 have been evaluated and will have no significant effect on the amounts and disclosures in these financial statements. Critical Accounting Estimates Judgment is required in the estimating of expected credit loss for trade receivables and other financial assets , and an appropriate model to predict this loss, based on historic trends is being used. We do not anticipate any notable change in the assumptions underlying the model, or the credit behaviour of our customers.
