Directorate Changes and Strategic Update

The Board of Ethtry Plc (AQSE:ETHY) announces that Patrick Chopard and Oliver Murphy have stepped down from the Board of the Company with immediate effect and Steve Winfield, who previously served on the board, has been appointed as an Executive Director.

The Board thanks both directors for their service to the Company and appreciates their cooperation in facilitating an orderly transition. The Company wishes them well in their future endeavours.

During this period the Company has established the foundations of its current strategic direction, including the development of an Ethereum treasury policy and the outline of an operational business model intended to link digital asset treasury management with opportunities across emerging technology infrastructure.

With these structural elements now in place, the Company is entering the next phase of its development with a clear focus on accelerating the execution of its operational strategy. The Board intends to concentrate on building a scalable platform at the intersection of digital infrastructure and next-generation computing, with particular emphasis on opportunities across data centre infrastructure, artificial intelligence and emerging quantum technologies.

The Company's Ethereum treasury policy remains a central component of its capital strategy, providing a programmable digital asset base aligned with the broader decentralised technology ecosystem and supporting the Company's operational ambitions.

The Board believes that the combination of a focused operational strategy and a clearly defined digital asset treasury policy provides a strong platform from which ETHTRY can pursue strategic opportunities and deliver long-term value for shareholders.

The Company looks forward to updating shareholders as it progresses the next stage of its development.
