Woodbois Limited

("Woodbois", the "Group" or the "Company")

Subscription of £1 million

Woodbois, is pleased to announce the successful subscription of £1 million from new and existing shareholders. The net proceeds of the fundraising will strengthen the Company's balance sheet whilst providing additional funding to accelerate exports of its product.

The increase of working capital strengthens the Company's financial position, enhancing liquidity for timely operational needs. It supports growth initiatives (for example optimizing export to 50 containers a month), funding expansions and innovation to drive future revenues. Increased working capital is expected to improve operational efficiencies and cost management. The Board believes this strategic move enhances stakeholder confidence by demonstrating robust financial management and reduces dependency on debt, providing flexibility to seize market opportunities. The net proceeds will also help the Company fund the registration process of its carbon credits trading business.

Gross proceeds of £1 million (approximately $1.3 million) have been raised by way of a subscription (the "Subscription") of 357,142,857 new ordinary shares of 0.01p each in the Company ("New Ordinary Shares") at a price of 0.28 pence per New Ordinary Share (the "Subscription  Price").

Axis Capital Markets Limited ('Axis') has subscribed for the shares on behalf of its clients.

The New Ordinary  Shares represent 9.05 per cent of the existing issued voting Ordinary Share capital of the Company prior to the fundraise. Proceeds of the Subscription will be used for general working capital purposes.

The New Ordinary Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with each other and with the existing ordinary shares in the capital of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of issue.

Subscription Agreements

The Company has entered into two  subscription agreements (the "Subscription Agreements") with Axis. The Subscription Agreements contain terms and conditions and Axis is entitled to terminate the Subscription Agreements at any time prior to the relevant Admissions in certain circumstances.

Share Capital

Application will be made to London Stock Exchange plc for the admission of the New Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM. It is expected that admission for 90,000,000  New Ordinary Shares and 267,142,857 New Ordinary Shares  will become effective on or before 8.00 a.m. on 10^th October and 18^th October respectively ( the "Admissions").

Following the Admissions, the Company's total share issued capital will be 4,907,131,730 ordinary shares, which will consist of 4,302,993,583 voting ordinary shares, 19,138,147 treasury shares and 585,000,000 non-voting ordinary shares. The aforementioned figure of voting ordinary shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to, their interest in the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Chief Executive Officer Guido Theuns said:
