TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2026

In terms of the JSE Listings Requirements, a company is required to publish a trading statement as soon as it becomes
reasonably certain that the results for the period to be reported upon next will differ by at least 20% from the most recent
published results for the previous corresponding period.

Africa Bitcoin Corporation is in the process of finalising its financial results for the year ended 28 February 2026. The
net asset value ("NAV") is the key performance metric utilised by the Company for trading statement purposes.

Shareholders are advised that the Company expects to report a NAV between the following ranges:

                                                                  Year ended               Year ended               Percentage
                                                            28 February 2026         28 February 2025                 variance

 NAV per ordinary share                       Rand              4.11 to 4.49                3.82 (1,2)     7.56% to 17.56% (2)
 NAV per preferred A ordinary share           Rand              1.88 to 2.10                     2.22        -15.51% to -5.51%
 NAV per preferred B ordinary share           Rand              3.51 to 4.01                     4.93       -28.75% to -18.75%
 NAV per preferred C ordinary share           Rand              3.50 to 3.80                     3.03         15.37% to 25.37%

Notes:
1. As previously published, the Company implemented a 3-for-1 sub-division of its ordinary share capital on 28 April 2026.
   Accordingly, in accordance with IAS 33.64, all per ordinary share metrics have been restated retrospectively to reflect the 3-for-1
   ordinary share sub-division, as if the sub-division had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The 2025
   comparative figures have been restated on the same basis.
2. The percentage variance is determined with reference to the restated NAV per ordinary share for the year ended 28 February
   2025 of R3.82, rather than the previously published NAV per ordinary share for the year ended 28 February 2025 of R11.45.

Commentary:

•    The increase in NAV per ordinary share is primarily due to fair value adjustments on the company's investment
     portfolio, reflecting favorable market movements and improved valuations of most of its underlying assets. These
     adjustments are in line with the company strategy of enhancing shareholder value through prudent investment
     selection and active portfolio management.

•    The decrease in NAV per Preferred A Ordinary Share (Umganu Lodge) reflects a relatively stable underlying asset
     base, with the lodge maintaining steady occupancy levels and a marginal increase in revenue during the year. The
     movement in NAV is primarily attributable to a widening of the operating loss driven by increased repairs and
     maintenance and advertising expenditure, partially offset by improved rate management.

•    The decline in NAV per Preferred B Ordinary Share (Bambanani Family Group) is primarily due to structural losses
     incurred during the year across the Bedfordview and Melville restaurant operations. Subsequent to year end, a
     structured operational reset has been commenced, including the closure of Bambanani Melville, the continuation
     of Bedfordview under a restructured operating model, and the launch of the Bambanani at Home e-commerce
     platform, designed to stop ongoing losses and preserve the long-term value of the Bambanani brand.

•    The increase in NAV per Preferred C Ordinary Share (Altvest Credit Opportunities Fund (ACOF) is primarily due to
     the continued scaling of the loan book and the growth in assets under management to R502 million during the year,
     supported by new institutional mandates. The progressive deployment of capital and the improving operating
     leverage of the lending platform contributed to a stronger underlying valuation and an enhanced balance sheet
     position for the Preferred C Ordinary Share portfolio.

The financial information on which this trading statement is based is the responsibility of the directors of the Company
and has not been reviewed or reported on by the Group's independent external auditor.
