WRAP Retail Offer for up to £100,000

Coro Energy plc ("Coro" or the "Company") is pleased to announce a retail offer via the Winterflood Retail Access Platform ("WRAP") to raise up to £100,000 (the "WRAP Retail Offer") through the issue of new ordinary shares of 0.5p each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").

Under the WRAP Retail Offer up to 20 million new Ordinary Shares (the "WRAP Retail Offer Shares") will be made available at a price of 0.5 pence per Ordinary Share.

In addition to the WRAP Retail Offer and, as announced on 25 July 2025 at 4.10pm, the Company is also proposing to raise funds through a placing ("Placing") of Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") to raise a minimum of £1.64 million (before expenses) at a price of 0.5 pence per Placing Share (the "Issue Price"). The WRAP Retail Offer Shares are also being offered at the Issue Price.

A separate announcement regarding the Placing was made by the Company on 25 July 2025 at 4.10pm and sets out the reasons for the Placing and use of proceeds. The proceeds of the WRAP Retail Offer will be utilised in the same way as the proceeds of the Placing.

For the avoidance of doubt, the WRAP Retail Offer is not part of the Placing. Completion of the WRAP Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the Placing but completion of the Placing is not conditional on the completion of the WRAP Retail Offer.

The WRAP Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, on the shareholder resolutions being passed at the General Meeting and the Placing Shares and the WRAP Retail Offer Shares being admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is anticipated that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the Placing Shares and the WRAP Retail Offer Shares will commence on or about 15 August 2025. A circular convening the General Meeting is expected to be posted on or about 28 July 2025.

WRAP Retail Offer

The Company values its retail shareholder base and believes that it is appropriate to provide both new and  existing retail shareholders in the United Kingdom the opportunity to participate in the WRAP Retail Offer.

Therefore, the Company is making the WRAP Retail Offer open to eligible investors in the United Kingdom, being new retail investors or existing shareholders of Coro Energy plc, following release of this announcement and through certain financial intermediaries.

A number of retail platforms are able to access the WRAP Retail Offer. Non-holders or existing shareholders wishing to subscribe for Retail Offer Shares should contact their broker or wealth manager who will confirm if they are participating in the Retail Offer.

The WRAP Retail Offer is expected to close at 31 July 2025 at 4.30pm. Eligible investors should note that financial intermediaries may have earlier closing times.

Retail brokers wishing to participate in the WRAP Retail Offer on behalf of eligible retail investors, should contact wrap@winterflood.com.

There is a minimum subscription of £100 per investor under the WRAP Retail Offer. The terms and conditions on which investors subscribe will be provided by the relevant financial intermediaries including relevant commission or fee charges.

The Company reserves the right to scale back any order under the WRAP Retail Offer or amend the size of the WRAP Retail Offer at its discretion. The Company reserves the right to reject any application for subscription under the WRAP Retail Offer without giving any reason for such rejection.

It is vital to note that once an application for WRAP Retail Offer Shares has been made and accepted via an intermediary, it cannot be withdrawn.

The WRAP Retail Offer Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the new Ordinary Shares including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after their date of issue.

It is a term of the WRAP Retail Offer that the total value of the WRAP Retail Offer Shares available for subscription at the Issue Price does not exceed £100,000, or such greater size as may be agreed by the Company.

The WRAP Retail Offer is offered in the United Kingdom under the exemption from the requirement to publish a prospectus in section 86(1)(e) of FSMA. As such, there is no need for publication of a prospectus pursuant to the Prospectus Regulation Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority, or for approval of the same by the Financial Conduct Authority. The WRAP Retail Offer is not being made into any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom.

Investors should make their own investigations into the merits of an investment in the Company. Nothing in this announcement amounts to a recommendation to invest in the Company or amounts to investment, taxation or legal advice.

It should be noted that a subscription for WRAP Retail Offer Shares and investment in the Company carries a number of risks. Investors should take independent advice from a person experienced in advising on investment in securities such as the WRAP Retail Offer Shares if they are in any doubt.

An investment in the Company will place capital at risk. The value of investments, and any income, can go down as well as up, so investors could get back less than the amount invested.

Neither past performance nor any forecasts should be considered a reliable indicator of future results.
