Chairman's Statement

The six-month period to 31 December 2025 has seen the Fund make steady progress. As a result of the £6.6 million share buyback and negative exchange rate movements of £1.0 million, net asset value declined from £116.2 million (178.4p per share) to an unaudited NAV of £107.4 million (177.5p per share). Net asset value per share decreased by 0.5%. This compares to a 4.6% increase in the Deutsche Numis Small Cap Index including AIM over the same period. Over the longer term, the Fund's performance remains impressive, with NAV per share increasing by 68.5% since December 2022, well ahead of the benchmark 18.5%.

Much of that performance can be attributed to the successful exit from the Fund's long term holding in De La Rue and the continuing progress at the Fund's largest shareholding, Morphic Medical Inc ("MMI"). We have covered De La Rue extensively in previous reports, detailing the patient activism that was integral to enabling the successful exit, but the period under review saw the conclusion of the bid from Atlas Holdings and final cash proceeds were eventually received in July.

With De La Rue sold, the importance of MMI to the Fund only increased and this became the prime focus for the Manager and the Fund in the period. Initially, this saw an emphasis on ensuring the right management team was in place at MMI, and with the appointment of Mike Gutteridge as CEO and latterly Jane Wright as CFO, the Fund is confident that this has been achieved. Shareholders who saw the webinar that Mike and I hosted in October last year will have seen the progress that has been made. The Fund has also continued to fund the growth of MMI, as detailed in the Investment Manager's report below and will consider supporting further investment alongside new cornerstone investors if appropriate.

However, it also became clear during 2025 that despite the value added to date, maximising the value of the Fund's investment in MMI will take longer than previously envisaged and that securing FDA approval will be key to unlocking that value. This would therefore entail the Fund actively continuing to oversee MMI and its funding until 2028 or 2029. This longer timeframe, together with the wish to pursue other ventures were key considerations for the Manager and Richard Bernstein, its principal adviser, in deciding to step down from managing the Fund.

We first announced this to the market in November 2025 along with the intention to appoint Tarncourt Asset Management ("Tarncourt") as the successor manager and since then have worked with both the current and prospective management teams and our advisers to finalise the proposals. We have also liaised extensively with our largest shareholders to ensure that the terms of Tarncourt's appointment are in the best interests of the Fund and we are grateful for their input.

The proposals are set out in greater detail in the EGM circular that has been issued to shareholders at the same time as these interim accounts but I would like to emphasise the Board is confident that Tarncourt is well placed to manage the vital development and future funding of MMI as well as the long term growth of the Fund under its proposed new mandate. The Board also notes that the current Manager will remain a shareholder after stepping down, which is a welcome vote of confidence in the new structure.

Richard Bernstein and the Manager have been in place since the launch of the Fund in 2008, so the forthcoming EGM marks the end of an era. His style of quiet activism has seen many notable successes over the years, with Thorntons, Pinewood, Aer Lingus and Hurricane Energy coming to mind and latterly De La Rue. The Board is grateful for his support and dedication. We wish him well.

Finally, with the appointment of Tarncourt and the change of investment mandate, I am mindful that my tenure on the Board is now well beyond the recommended nine years and consequently I will not be standing for re-election at the next AGM. In the interim, I am looking forward to working with all stakeholders to ensure a smooth transition to the next stage of the Fund's life.

Investment Manager's Report

Performance

During the six-month period to 31 December 2025, net asset value decreased from £116.2 million (178.4p per share) to an unaudited NAV of £107.4 million (177.5p per share). The decline in NAV was predominately caused by the £6.6 million share buyback and negative exchange rate movements of £1 million.

Investee companies

Morphic Medical Inc ("MMI")

Morphic's product, Reset®, is a thin, flexible implant that lines the proximal small intestine and mimics gastric bypass bariatric surgery as food bypasses the duodenum and the upper intestines. Unlike gastric bypass surgery, Reset® is reversible, minimally invasive, and temporary. It does not permanently alter the patient's anatomy and uniquely targets the body's own blood glucose control mechanisms. This is achieved through a 20-minute endoscopic procedure. The patient will typically retain the device for nine months, after which the device is removed.

Following MMI's receipt of the European CE mark and UK regulatory approval for its Reset® system, patients have had procedures in both the UK and India. MMI has also signed distribution agreements in Spain, Belgium, Netherlands, Czech Republic and the Middle East. Patient enrolment for its US Step-1 study is ongoing and expected to complete between late 2027 and early 2028. FDA approval for the Reset® device in the US is expected in either 2028 or 2029.

Patient recruitment in the US for the pivotal FDA study for Reset® is accelerating. Last month, two further procedures were carried out in Miami and seven patients were scheduled for February 2026. The FDA has also recently agreed to a change to the study protocol, which will speed up patient recruitment.

Due to the data collected so far from over 200 studies on safety, efficacy and durability in Germany, NUB status (the reimbursement and pricing of innovative in-patient drugs and devices) has been awarded following a rigorous assessment by the German hospital and reimbursement system and reflects recognition that Reset® is supported by a substantial and growing body of clinical evidence and research, demonstrating both clinical relevance and therapeutic potential. The designation enables hospitals in Germany to apply for supplementary reimbursement for the use of Reset® while broader reimbursement pathways in other countries continue to be evaluated.

To satisfy future demand for Reset®, MMI has now agreed terms with its contract manufacturers to start manufacturing Reset® at scale.

The Fund has continued to fund the growth of MMI, with $14m invested in MMI since the start of 2025 at $0.48 per share and anticipates further investment alongside cornerstone investors if appropriate.

The Fund's other remaining holdings of Allied Minds Plc, Sigma Broking Limited and Sutton Harbour Plc account for less than 10% of the Fund's total net asset value. The Investment Manager is in active discussions with each of these companies with a view to maximising their monetisation. Sigma Broking Limited is in advanced discussions to dispose of its London Metal Exchange business. Completion is dependent upon regulatory approvals for the change of control. On closing, the Fund is expected to receive a capital distribution. Sigma Broking will retain its wealth management division.

The largest investment held by Allied Minds, Federated Wireless, delivered solid operational progress, executing the second year of its restructuring while improving financial quality and market position. Revenue for 2025 was $18.6M, with 36% year on year growth in recurring revenue, which now represents 86% of total revenue. Operating expenses were reduced by 30% compared to earlier years, enabling the company to achieve positive EBITDA and expand margins.

The company grew market share to 80% in CBRS, driven by product performance and continued migration of customers from competitors. Management is targeting further strong growth in revenue and EBITDA, supported by growth from Verizon deployments, the expected Comcast migration, new federal projects, and further expansion within the existing customer base.

General Information

Crystal Amber Fund Limited (the "Company") was incorporated and registered in Guernsey on 22 June 2007 and is governed in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Law. The registered office address is PO Box 286, Floor 2, Trafalgar Court, Les Banques, St Peter Port, Guernsey, GYI 4LY. The Company was established to provide Shareholders with an attractive total return, which was expected to comprise primarily capital growth with the potential for distributions of up to 5 pence per share per annum following consideration of the accumulated retained earnings as well as unrealised gains and losses. Following changes to the Company's investment policy in March 2022, the Company's strategy has been to optimise outcomes for a limited number of special situations where the Company believes value can be realised regardless of market direction.

Proposed changes to investment policy and management arrangements

As the Fund announced on 14th November 2025, the Fund's investment manager, Crystal Amber Asset Management (Guernsey) Limited (the "Existing Manager"), has informed the Board of its intention to resign as investment manager. The Existing Manager, with its principal adviser Richard Bernstein, has been managing the Fund since its launch in 2008. Given the need to continue to oversee MMI for a longer period than previously anticipated and Mr Bernstein's wish to pursue other ventures, the Fund has accepted the Existing Manager's decision which will take effect on the appointment of a new investment manager. The Board wishes to express its sincere gratitude to Mr Bernstein for his vision, dedication and contribution to both the performance and the reputation of the Fund since its inception.

As outlined in the shareholder circular published on 31 March 2026, the Board has proposed a number of changes to the Company's investment policy, the appointment of a new Investment Manager (Global Fund Management Services Limited) and a new Investment Adviser (Tarncourt Asset Management Limited) together with the adoption of new Articles to reinstate a periodic continuation vote. These proposals have been developed following extensive engagement with major Shareholders and reflect the Board's intention to ensure that the Company is appropriately positioned for the next phase of its strategy. As at the date of approval of these Interim Financial Statements, these proposals remain subject to Shareholder approval at an Extraordinary General Meeting and therefore have not yet taken effect. The Company will update Shareholders following the outcome of the Extraordinary General Meeting.

Morphic Medical Inc is an unconsolidated subsidiary of the Company and was incorporated in Delaware. As at 31 December 2025 it had 6 wholly-owned subsidiaries and its principal place of business is Boston. Refer to Note 9 for further information.

The Company's Ordinary shares were listed and admitted to trading on AIM, on 17 June 2008. The Company is also a member of the AIC.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Interim Financial Statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to those balances considered material to the Interim Financial Statements throughout the current period, unless otherwise stated.

Basis of preparation

The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. 

The Interim Financial Statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the Annual Financial Statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Financial Statements for the year to 30 June 2025. The Annual Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been used in the Interim Financial Statements as in the Annual Financial Statements for the year ended 30 June 2025.

The presentation of the Interim Financial Statements is consistent with the Annual Financial Statements. Where presentational guidance set out in the SORP "Financial Statements of Investment Trust Companies and Venture Capital Trust (issued by the AIC in November 2014 and updated in February 2018, October 2019, April 2021 and July 2022) is consistent with the requirements of IFRS, the Directors have sought to prepare the Interim Financial Statements on a basis compliant with the recommendations of the SORP. In particular, supplementary information which analyses the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income between items of a revenue and capital nature has been presented alongside the total Statement of Profit or Loss and Comprehensive Income.

Going concern

As at 31 December 2025, the Company had net assets of £107.4 million (30 June 2025: £116.2 million) and cash balances of £17.5 million (30 June 2025: £10.9 million) which are sufficient to meet current obligations as they fall due. Approximately 0.6% of the Company's investment portfolio comprises readily realisable securities valued at £0.6 million using bid price at the balance sheet date which could be sold to assist with meeting funding requirements if necessary.

As these are quoted prices in an active market, any volatility in the global economy is reflected within the value of the financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss.

Following extensive Shareholder consultation in the early part of 2022, a change of investment policy was approved by Shareholders in March 2022 which prioritised the intention to maximise the return of capital, representing a change of strategy.

As noted above, the Board has put forward proposals to appoint a new Investment Manager and Investment Adviser, as detailed in the Shareholder Circular dated 31 March 2026. As the proposals do not involve the compulsory liquidation of the Company and costs will be substantially the same for at least 12 months, the Directors remain confident in the Company's ability to meet its obligations as they fall due whether the proposals are accepted or not. If the proposals are accepted, the transition is expected to run smoothly as the Existing Investment Manager will continue to provide services until the Effective Date as set out in the Circular ensuring no disruption to the Company's operations. 

The Company has a track record of returning cash to Shareholders via share buybacks and dividends. The Company has returned over £118 million to shareholders since 2013, when the requirement for the continuation vote to be proposed at the 2021 AGM was introduced.

As a result of matters set out above, the Board is confident that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and do not consider there to be any threat to the going concern status of the Company. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these financial statements.

For management purposes, the Company is domiciled in Guernsey and is engaged in investment in UK equity instruments, mainly in one geographical area, and therefore the Company has only one operating segment.

4. FINANCIAL ASSETS DESIGNATED AT FAIR VALUE THROUGH PROFIT OR LOSS

5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value measurements

The Company measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that prioritises the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under IFRS 13 are as follows:

Level 1: Quoted price (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument.

Level 2: Valuation techniques based on observable inputs, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using: quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active; or other valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.

Level 3: Valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs. This category includes all instruments for which the valuation technique includes inputs that are not based on observable data, and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument's valuation. This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments for which significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. For this purpose, the significance of an input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety. If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustment based on unobservable inputs, that measurement is a Level 3 measurement. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgement, considering factors specific to the asset or liability.

The determination of what constitutes 'observable' requires significant judgement by the Company. The Company considers observable data to be that market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

The objective of the valuation techniques used is to arrive at a fair value measurement that reflects the price that would be received if an asset was sold or a liability transferred in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The following tables analyse, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company's financial assets measured at fair value at 31 December 2025 and 30 June 2025:

The Level 1 equity investments were valued by reference to the closing bid prices in each investee company on the reporting date.

The Level 2 equity investment relates to Sutton Harbour. Due to the low volume of trading activity in the market for this investment, it has been valued by reference to the closing bid price on the reporting date.

The Level 3 equity investment in Allied Minds (which delisted on 30 November 2022) was valued at the Net Asset Value per share on 31 December 2025 converted at an exchange rate of $1.3462 to £1 and reduced by a 25% liquidity discount to reflect the nature and risks associated with the underlying portfolio of Allied Minds and the likelihood of being able to realise the investment at Net Asset Value. The Level 3 equity investments in MMI were valued at 30 June 2025 by reference to an independent third-party valuation commissioned by the Company. The valuer reported a range of valuations using discounted cash flow techniques and a probability-weighted expected returns method in the event of a trade sale or IPO. The total valuation was then allocated through a waterfall to the Series A shares and common stock owned by the Company. The Level 3 equity investment in Sigma Broking Limited was valued by reference to the valuation at 30 June 2025 of three separate constituent parts, which included the broking business, a wealth management business and Novum Investment Management. Advanced negotiations are ongoing regarding sale of the broking business.

For financial instruments not measured at FVTPL, the carrying amount is approximate to their fair value.

Fair value hierarchy - Level 3

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances for fair value measurements in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy:

The Company recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy on the date of the event of change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

The table below provides information on significant unobservable inputs used at 31 December 2025 in measuring equity financial instruments categorised as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. It also details the sensitivity to changes in significant unobservable inputs used to measure value in each case.

6. SHARE CAPITAL AND RESERVES

The authorised share capital of the Company is £3,000,000 divided into 300 million Ordinary shares of £0.01 each.

The issued share capital of the Company, including Treasury shares, is comprised as follows:

During the period, the Company did not issue any Ordinary shares (2024: nil).

7. TREASURY SHARES RESERVE

During the period ended 31 December 2025, 4,648,847 Treasury shares (2024: 1,315,000) were purchased at an average price of 142.97p per share (2024: 105.46p), representing an average discount to NAV at the time of purchase of 19.45%. All of these shares will be cancelled in due course. No Treasury shares were sold during the period ended 31 December 2025 or 31 December 2024.

8. DIVIDENDS

No Dividend has been declared for the six months ended 31 December 2025.

9. RELATED PARTIES

Richard Bernstein is a director and a member of the Investment Manager, a member of the Investment Adviser and a holder of 50,000 (30 June 2025: 10,000) Ordinary shares in the Company, representing 0.08% (30 June 2025: 0.01%) of the voting share capital of the Company at 31 December 2025.

As at 31 December 2025, Crystal Amber Asset Management (Guernsey) Limited held 2,209,448 (30 June 2025: 4,067,781) ordinary shares in Crystal Amber Fund Limited equivalent to 3.65 per cent (30 June 2025: 6.24 per cent) of the voting share capital. As at 31 December 2025, these shares are valued at the closing bid price.

During the period the Company incurred management fees payable to the Investment Manager of £345,000 (2024: £345,000), of which £57,500 were outstanding at the period-end (30 June 2025: £115,000). No performance fees were payable during the period (30 June 2025: £Nil) and none outstanding at the period end.

As at 31 December 2025, the Company's investment in MMI is treated as an unconsolidated subsidiary. The Company added to its holding of MMI obtaining further shares at US$0.48 per share in three tranches since 18 July 2025. The Fund now holds an aggregate of 418,944,800 preferred and common shares in MMI, representing approximately 97.8% of its aggregated preferred and common issued share capital. The Fund will consider providing further investment if appropriate, alongside other cornerstone investors. 

MMI was incorporated in Delaware, had six wholly-owned subsidiaries as at 31 December 2025 and its principal place of business is Boston. The six subsidiaries were as follows:

· Morphic Medical Securities, Inc., a Massachusetts-incorporated non-trading entity;

· Morphic Medical Europe Holding B.V., a Netherlands-incorporated non-trading holding company;

· Morphic Medical Europe B.V., a Netherlands-incorporated company that conducts certain European business operations;

· Morphic Medical Germany GmbH, a German-incorporated company that conducts certain European business operations;

· Morphic Medical UK Ltd, a UK-incorporated company that conducts UK business operations; and

· GI Dynamics Australia Pty Ltd, an Australian-incorporated company that conducts Australian business operations.

In accordance with the revised Investment Management Agreement approved by shareholders on 7 March 2022 the management fee payable to the investment manager was intended to cease on 31 December 2023. In order to ensure that the Fund continued to have active portfolio management in 2024, a new Investment Management Agreement was agreed with the Investment Manager on 25th October 2023. It was agreed that the Fund would pay a monthly fee of £57,500 (£690,000 annually) from 1 January 2024 This fee equated to approximately 0.64% of the current NAV on an annual basis. It was agreed that the performance fee would continue to be calculated by reference to the aggregate cash returned to Shareholders after 1 January 2022 and the Investment Manager would receive 20% of the aggregate cash paid to Shareholders after 1 January 2022 (including the interim dividend of 10 pence per Ordinary Share declared on 22 December 2021) in excess of a threshold of £216,000,000.

Future Related Party Arrangements

Conditional upon Shareholder approval of the proposals set out in Circular to Shareholders dated 31 March 2026, the existing Investment Management and Investment Advisory Agreements will terminate on the Effective Date set out in the Circular. New agreements will be entered into with Global Fund Management Services Limited and Tarncourt Asset Management Limited as the new Investment Manager and Investment Adviser respectively, introducing revised fixed and performance-based fee structures. Furthermore, as part of the proposals, Tarncourt has conditionally agreed to acquire a shareholding in the Company from the Existing Investment Manager to ensure a continued alignment of interests with Shareholders.

Depending on whether the Ordinary shares are trading at a discount or a premium to the Company's NAV per share when the performance fee becomes payable, the performance fee will be either payable in cash (subject to the restrictions set out below) or satisfied by the sale of Ordinary shares out of Treasury or by the issue of new fully paid Ordinary shares (the number of which shall be calculated as set out below):

· If Ordinary shares are trading at a discount to the NAV per Ordinary share when the performance fee becomes payable, the performance fee shall be payable in cash. Within a period of one calendar month after receipt of such cash payment, the Investment Manager shall be required to purchase Ordinary shares in the market of a value equal to such cash payment.

· If Ordinary shares are trading at, or at a premium to, the NAV per Ordinary share when the performance fee becomes payable, the performance fee shall be satisfied by the sale of Ordinary shares out of Treasury or by the issue of new fully paid Ordinary shares. The number of Ordinary shares that shall become payable shall be a number equal to the performance fee payable divided by the closing mid-market price per Ordinary share on the date on which such performance fee became payable. 

Performance fee for period ended 31 December 2025

At 31 December 2025, the Basic Performance Hurdle was £Nil (as adjusted for all dividends paid during the performance period on their respective payment dates, compounded at the applicable annual rate) (June 2025: £Nil).

The aggregate cash returned to Shareholders after 1 July 2022 was £69,896,308 (30 June 2025: £63,249,905). Accordingly, no performance fee was earned during the period ended 31 December 2025 (2024: £Nil).

The interests of the Directors in the share capital of the Company at the period/year end, and as at the date of this report, are as follows:

(1) Chairman of the Company

(2) Ordinary shares held indirectly

All related party transactions are carried out on an arm's length basis.

10. POST BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

On 31 March 2026, the Company published a Shareholder Circular, outlining proposals to adopt a new investment policy, appoint a new Investment Manager and Investment Adviser, with new advisory, management and performance arrangements and the adoption of new articles to provide for a periodic continuation vote. The proposals are subject to Shareholder approval at an EGM. If such approval is forthcoming, the proposals will take effect on the Effective Date set out in the Circular all of which are expected to occur no later than 30 April 2026.

Except for the above, there were no material events after the year end to the date on which these Financial

Statements were approved.
