Announcement PDF RNS Number : 2846V Bluebird Mining Ventures Ltd 18 September 2026 18 September 2026 Bluebird Mining Ventures Ltd ("BMV" or the "Company") Share Issuance, Debt Conversion and Significant Shareholder and PDMR Notifications Bluebird Mining Ventures Ltd (LSE: BMV) (the Company or BMV), the gold streaming, mining and treasury company, announces the completion of allocation of certain ordinary shares held on trust and the conversion into ordinary shares of £197,200 of indebtedness owed to Skylake Management LLP (Skylake) to simplify and deleverage the Company’s balance sheet. Previously Announced Obligation On 9 April 2026, the Company announced that a £150,000 obligation payable to Skylake would be satisfied through the issue of Ordinary Shares at a price of 0.5 pence per Ordinary Share. The Company will now issue 30,000,000 new Ordinary Shares (Restructuring Shares) subject to admission to trading on the Main Market (Admission) to Skylake in full satisfaction of this previously disclosed obligation. This does not represent a new cash subscription or additional consideration, but the settlement in Ordinary Shares of an existing obligation previously announced by the Company. For clarity, the separate £750,000 deferred obligation announced on 9 April 2026 remains outstanding and is unaffected by this issuance. Conversion of £197,200 Indebtedness The Company wishes to preserve its cash for its operational activities and deleverage its balance sheet and therefore has agreed to convert the £197,200 creditor balance owed to Skylake into 328,666,667 new Ordinary Shares (Creditor Shares) a conversion price of 0.060 pence per Ordinary Share subject to Admission. This price is based on a ~20% premium to the 30-day volume weighted average price (VWAP), a premium to the 90 day VWAP and represents a premium to the closing mid-price on 17 September 2026. The £197,200 debt will be extinguished upon the admission to the Main Market of the Creditor Shares. The £197,200 balance relates to creditor positions acquired by Skylake from third parties and was previously disclosed by the Company on 9 April 2026. At that time, the amount remained an outstanding liability of the Company. Completion of Contractor Share Allocations As previously detailed in the prospectus published by the Company on 16 January 2026 (Prospectus), the Company established a pool (Contractor Pool) of 350,000,000 ordinary shares of no par value (Ordinary Shares) for the purpose of remunerating secondees and/or contractors who provide services to the Company including but not limited to corporate governance, company secretarial services, finance services, business development services, operations assistance, marketing services and communications services (Contractor Beneficiaries) with these Ordinary Shares being held on trust for the Contractor Beneficiaries by Skylake. 146,364,399 Ordinary Shares of the Contractor Pool were issued in April 2026 to Contractor Beneficiaries. The remaining 203,635,601 Ordinary Shares in the Contractor Pool have now been allocated to the Contractor Beneficiaries (New Contractor Shares) and are expected to be issued on 25 September 2026 immediately prior to Admission of the Restructuring Shares and the Creditor Shares. Following the issue of the New Contractor Shares this will settled sums owed to the relevant contractors for the period up to 30 June 2026. The allocation of the Ordinary Shares in the Contractor Pool does not affect the 300,000,000 Ordinary Shares held by Skylake pursuant to the Company’s management incentive plan (Management Incentive Shares) which was detailed in the Prospectus. Although the milestones for this plan have been determined, no allocations have yet been made. In relation to the 350,000,000 Ordinary Shares in the Contractor Pool the following allocations have been made to persons discharging management responsibility (PDMRs) or person closely associated with PDMRs: Recipient Role / Notes Issued April for Jan-Apr 2026 September issue to bring balances up to end-June 2026 Total Denis Rusinovich Former Director of Operations 20,000,000 - 20,000,000 Frank Amato Non-Executive Director 7,237,708 11,933,461 19,171,169 Hernan F Yellati Non-Executive Director 7,237,708 11,933,461 19,171,169 John Webb Board Advisor 5,483,112 9,040,486 14,523,598 Kunal Kathane Operations - 32,786,890 32,786,890 Paul Ray Board Advisor - 12,054,011 12,054,011 Skylake Management LLP Skylake Team 80,000,000 93,341,487 173,341,487 Further details of these transactions by PDMRs in April are detailed below in the notifications received by the Company below pursuant to Article 19(1) of the retained EU law version of the EU Market Abuse Regulation (Regulation 596/2014) (UK MAR). Further PDMR notifications are expected to be made following the issue of New Contractor Shares to the relevant contractors in September. Related Party Transaction Skylake is a related party of the Company by virtue of Sath Ganesarajah, Chief Executive Officer of BMV, controlling Skylake and pursuant to Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rule (DTR) 7.3.8R the board of the Company has approved the issue of the Creditor Shares. Admission and Total Voting Rights The Company has made an application to the London Stock Exchange plc for a total of 358,666,667 Ordinary Shares, being the Restructuring Shares and the Creditor Shares (New Shares), to be admitted to trading on the Main Market operated by the London Stock Exchange plc. The New Shares are expected to be admitted to trading on the Main Market at 08:00am on 25 September 2026. Following Admission of the New Shares, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 3,215,667,471 Ordinary Shares with voting rights. Each Ordinary Share carries the right to one vote in relation to all circumstances at general meetings of the Company. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. The New Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares. Significant Shareholder notifications The Company has received a number of notifications from Skylake pursuant to DTR 5.1.2R to reflect its ownership position since publication of the Prospectus. Skylake does not control the voting rights attached to the Incentive Shares and did not control the voting rights attached to the Ordinary Shares in the Contractor Pool (Contractor Pool Shares) prior to their allocation. In respect of the notification as at 15 April 2026 we understand this includes the 93,333,333 Ordinary Shares of “Top-Up Shares” that the Company announced on 9 April 2026. The Company expects a further notification from Skylake following the allotment of the New Shares Skylake. After the allotment of these Ordinary Shares, the Company expects Skylake to hold voting rights in respect of 665,341,487 Ordinary Shares representing 20.69 % of the total voting rights in issue. Under the terms of the trust deed under which the Contractor Pool Shares were issued to Skylake and Skylake still holds the Management Incentive Shares, the Company controls the voting rights attached to those Ordinary Shares whilst they are held in trust by Skylake. Therefore, the Company is deemed to be an indirect holder of the voting rights attached to those Ordinary Shares (Trust Shares) despite not having an economic interest in those Ordinary Shares. Due to its indirect interest, the Company is required to make significant shareholder notifications in respect of the Trust Shares under DTR 5.1.2R. Upon any Trust Shares being allocated to Contractors the Company is required to treat this as a disposal of voting rights for the purposes of DTR 5.1.2R and therefore is required to make significant shareholder disclosures in respect of the allocation of the Contractor Pool Shares as and when the relevant thresholds in DTR 5.1.2R are crossed. None of the Trust Shares are treated as treasury shares and so they should be included in the figure used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules. Details of the Company’s opening position in respect of the Trust Shares and the reduction in the number of voting rights held due to allocations of Contractor Pool Shares in April 2026 are detailed below. The Company intends to make a further significant shareholder notification upon the transfer of the New Contractor Shares by Skylake to the relevant contractors.
