Highlights

· Average purchase price: £50,000 per Bitcoin

Chief Strategic Officer and Executive Director Mike Murphy commented:
“These transactions reflect the continued execution of Hamak’s Bitcoin treasury strategy in a disciplined and shareholder-focused manner. By combining direct ownership of Bitcoin, held securely through Archax, with a strategic stake in Vaultz Capital, we are building exposure to both the underlying asset and now to the UK listed Bitcoin treasury companies where we believe there is clear scope for consolidation and pro-active material value recognition
“We believe this dual approach gives Hamak a differentiated public market position and reinforces our ambition to build a forward-looking company with intelligent exposure to the digital asset sector.”
Treasury Purchases
On the 18th February 2026 Hamak purchased a further three Bitcoin for a total price, including commissions, of £150,000, to bring the Company’s total holdings to 26 Bitcoin. The Bitcoin was purchased via the Company’s FCA-regulated digital asset exchange broker and custodian, Archax.
In addition, Hamak has acquired 6,500,000 ordinary shares in Vaultz Capital, representing 3.05% of Vaultz’s issued share capital. The investment reflects the Company’s conviction in the long-term growth of the Bitcoin ecosystem and its intention to build targeted exposure not only through direct ownership of Bitcoin, but also through selective positions in quoted Bitcoin treasury companies where there may be an attractive discount to the underlying Bitcoin-backed net asset value or mNAV and clear consolidation possibilities.
The Board believes that this dual-track approach strengthens Hamak’s exposure to the digital asset space by combining direct ownership of physical Bitcoin with strategic public market investments in Bitcoin-aligned treasury businesses. The Company believes this approach offers shareholders access to both the long-term value potential of Bitcoin itself and additional upside from valuation dislocations within listed Bitcoin treasury vehicles.
The investment is a further step in the execution of Hamak’s treasury strategy and reflects the Company’s continued focus on disciplined capital allocation, balance sheet strength and long-term shareholder value creation.
For the purposes of UK MAR, the person responsible for arranging release of this announcement on behalf of Hamak is Karl Smithson, CEO and Executive Director.
