(*) Calculations made on the basis of the number of shares composing the Company's share capital as of press release time, adding the shares resulting from (i) the conversion of all OCA issued or announced, (ii) the conversion of the BSA 2025-01 announced to date and the issuance under the legal adjustment measures for the benefit of OCA Tranche 1 holders issued or exercised to date, and (iii) the issuance of Free Shares whose allocation to certain of its employees and corporate officers has been decided, but have not yet been definitively attributed to their beneficiaries, the number of which amounts to 544,510 as of the date of this press release, being noted that the Company is authorized to issue additional free shares, within the limit set out in the resolutions of the general meeting of June 10, 2025. The Company indicates that the fully diluted basis includes, conservatively, the potential addition of shares to its share capital resulting (i) from the conversion of the BSA 2025-01 issued as announced on April 7, 2025 and not yet exercised to date, and (ii) from legal adjustment measures for the benefit of OCA A-01 and B-01 holders not yet exercised. The Company also reminds that the fully diluted basis does not include the shares that may correspond to the unsubscribed amounts to date of the €300 million of capital increases authorized in favor of TOBAM.

The Company indicates that it has, on a conservative basis, included in the fully diluted share basis the shares that may be issued upon potential future exercise of BSA 2025-01 and of potential future subscription of legal adjustment measures for OCA A-01 and B-01 holders. Consequently, any potential future exercise of existing BSA or legal adjustment measures announced by the Company will result in no additional share added to the fully diluted basis.

Expansion of the Company's bitcoin holdings

Capital B announces the final completion of the acquisition of an additional 5 BTC using the proceeds from the final completion of the operation described above, as part of the continuation of its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy.

Swissquote Bank Europe SA, a virtual asset service provider (VASP) registered with the Luxembourg regulator (CSSF), executed the acquisition of the BTC using the proceeds from the capital increase operation and was entrusted with their secure custody via the technological solution of Swiss company Taurus.

  2. For all press releases up to and including 20 October 2025, the Total BTC € Net Asset Value was calculated by multiplying the Total BTC Holdings as of the date reported in the above table by the latest BTC Acquisition € Cost Basis on that same date.

Given the recent volatility in the price of BTC, the Company specifies that, starting 25 November 2025, the Total BTC € Net Asset Value is now calculated by multiplying the Total BTC Holdings as of the reported date by the BTC price at 18:00 CET on the day preceding the press release (source: Boursorama).

Note on the BTC holdings at the date of this press release : the Company indicates that it currently holds an additional 59 BTC for its operational needs, and precises that these BTC are segregated from its Bitcoin reserve held under its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy and are in this regard not included in the key performance indicators published by the Company.

Quarter To Date (QTD):

Reported Date Total BTC Holdings Issued Common Shares Fully Diluted Shares1 BTC (sats) per Fully Diluted Share2 ‘BTC Yield' QTD3 ‘BTC Gain' QTD ‘BTC € Gain' QTD

(1) The number of shares on a fully diluted basis includes (i) the total number of ordinary shares outstanding, (ii) the shares that would be issued upon the full conversion of all currently issued convertible bonds of the Company, and (iii) the free shares granted by the Company to certain of its employees and corporate officers, but which have not yet been definitively attributed to their beneficiaries, and whose number amounts to 544,510 as of the date of this press release, (iv) an additional number of free shares not yet granted, but which may be granted and conservatively included as part of its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy. As of the date of this press release, the Company has therefore included an indicative number of 1,840,000 additional free shares not yet granted in the number of shares on a fully diluted basis, within the framework of the Company's KPIs only, in order to anticipate, on a conservative basis, the impact of these potential future grants. It is specified that this number may be subject to change, within the limit set out in the resolutions of the general meeting of June 10, 2025. The Company precises that the number of fully diluted shares is adjusted to reflect only fully completed operations to date (i.e., excluding ongoing operations), and conservatively includes the shares that may be issued as a result of potential future BSA exercise and legal adjustment measures subscription for OCA A-01 and B-01 holders. Consequently, any potential future exercise of BSA or adjustment measures announced by the Company will result in no additional share added on a fully diluted basis.

(2) BTC per Fully Diluted Share is calculated by dividing Total BTC Holdings by the Fully Diluted Shares outstanding at the end of each period. The result is then expressed as satoshis (sats) per Fully Diluted Shares outstanding, rounded down. There are 100,000,000 sats in 1 BTC. Each sat represents 0.00000001 BTC, the smallest unit of bitcoin.

(3) The BTC Yield takes into account a fully diluted basis that includes the shares that may be issued as a result of potential future exercise of BSA and legal adjustment measures subscription for OCA A-01 and B-01 holders, reflecting a conservative view of the number of BTC per share on a fully diluted basis. As a result, any future BTC acquisition related to these types of transactions will result in an increase in the number of BTC held with no additional share added on a fully diluted basis.

Important information about ‘BTC Yield', ‘BTC Gain', and ‘BTC € Gain' KPIs

The Company uses ‘BTC Yield', ‘BTC Gain' and ‘BTC € Gain' as indicators to monitor its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy. These indicators illustrate the manner in which the Company finances the acquisition of bitcoin in a given period by:

  • ‘BTC Yield': indicator reflecting the percentage change in the ratio of Total BTC Holdings to Fully Diluted Shares outstanding over a given period;
  • ‘BTC Gain': indicator that represents the number of BTC held by the Company at the beginning of a period multiplied by the ‘BTC Yield' for such period; and
  • ‘BTC € Gain': indicator representing the euro value of the ‘BTC Gain' calculated by multiplying the ‘BTC Gain' by the acquisition cost per BTC of the last acquisition of the applicable period. The Company has selected the last acquisition of the applicable period to determine the market price of bitcoin solely for the purpose of facilitating this illustrative calculation.

These indicators will be communicated periodically by the Company as part of its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy, notably on a half-yearly and annual basis.

When the Company uses these KPIs, it also takes into account the various limitations of these metrics, including that they do not take into account debt and other liabilities and claims on company assets that would be senior to common equity, and that these indicators assume that all indebtedness will be refinanced or, in the case of the Company's (or its subsidiaries') convertible debt instruments, converted into shares of common stock in accordance with their respective terms.

Additionally, ‘BTC Yield' is not, and should not be understood as, an operating performance measure or a financial or liquidity measure. In particular, ‘BTC Yield' is not equivalent to “yield” in the traditional financial context. It is not a measure of the return on investment the Company's shareholders may have achieved historically or can achieve in the future by purchasing stock of the Company, or a measure of income generated by the Company's operations or its bitcoin holdings, return on investment on its bitcoin holdings, or any other similar financial measure of the performance of its business or assets. ‘BTC Gain' and ‘BTC € Gain' are not, and should not be understood as, operating performance measures or financial or liquidity measures. In particular, ‘BTC Gain' and ‘BTC € Gain' are not equivalent to “gain” in the traditional financial context. They also are not measures of the return on investment the Company's shareholders may have achieved historically or can achieve in the future by purchasing stock of the Company, or measures of income generated by the Company's operations or its bitcoin holdings, return on investment on its bitcoin holdings, or any other similar financial measure of the performance of its business or assets. It should also be understood that ‘BTC € Gain' does not represent a fair value gain of the Company's bitcoin holdings, and ‘BTC € Gain' may be positive during periods when the Company has incurred fair value losses on its bitcoin holdings.

The trading price of the Company's common stock depends on numerous factors in addition to the quantity of bitcoins the Company holds and number of actual or potential shares of its stock outstanding, and as a result, the market value of the Company's shares may trade at a discount or a premium relative to the market value of the bitcoin the Company holds, and neither ‘BTC Yield', ‘BTC Gain' nor ‘BTC € Gain' are indicative or predictive of the trading price of the Company's securities.

As noted above, these KPIs are narrow in their purpose and are used by the Company to assist it in assessing the use of the equity capital, as it pertains to its bitcoin holdings only.

The Company's ability to achieve positive ‘BTC Yield', ‘BTC Gain', or ‘BTC € Gain' may depend on a variety of factors, including its ability to generate profits in excess of its fixed charges and other expenses, as well as factors outside of its control, such as the price of bitcoin, and the availability of financing on favorable terms. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

The presentation of these KPIs does not imply any intention to pay dividends on its common shares in the future. Holding the Company's common shares does not equate to direct ownership of the Bitcoin held by the Company. Investors should rely on the financial statements and other disclosures by the Company. These KPIs are only intended as supplemental metrics for those who understand their purpose and limitations, not as replacements for traditional financial analysis.

Risk factors

The Company reminds that the risk factors related to the Company and to its business are detailed in its 2025 half year financial report, available for free on the Company's website (https://www.cptlb.com). The realization of all or part of these risks could negatively impact the Company's operations, financial position, results, development, or outlook.
