   PRESS RELEASE

   REPLOID expands into Oceania with new sales company

     • REPLOID holds 51%
     • ASAMER Familienstiftung and entrepreneur Ferdinand Heilig each hold
       24.5%

    

   Wels, July 23, 2026 – REPLOID Group AG ("REPLOID") is taking another step
   in its international expansion. With the launch of a new sales company in
   New Zealand, REPLOID is entering the markets of Oceania – specifically New
   Zealand and Australia.

   The market for organic residues is  growing rapidly, driven by the
   circular economy and increasingly ambitious government policy. In 2024,
   Australia introduced its Circular Economy Framework, a comprehensive
   strategy to improve resource efficiency, reduce waste, and put secondary
   raw materials to use.

   According to the framework, more than 7.6 million tons of food waste are
   generated each year, resulting in economic costs equivalent to more than
   €22 billion. A key goal is to cut this volume in half by 2030. Among the
   measures outlined, the framework explicitly cites the valorization of
   agricultural waste using insect technology.

   As in previous expansion steps, REPLOID is once again partnering with
   strong allies who bring deep expertise and established networks in the
   target region. For market entry into New Zealand and Australia, REPLOID
   has secured a collaboration with the ASAMER Familienstiftung  (family
   foundation) and entrepreneur Ferdinand Heilig, whose regional market
   knowledge will actively support REPLOID’s entry into the region. REPLOID
   will be responsible for the operational implementation of the projects.

   The Asamer family is well known for its namesake family business, with
   core operations in gravel, stone, concrete, recycling, and earthworks.

   In 2004, Ferdinand Heilig founded the CARBON Group, which he still leads
   today as CEO. The group of companies develops, finances, and operates
   projects that are both sustainable and economically viable.

   Philip Pauer, CEO and founder of REPLOID: “With the ASAMER Family
   Foundation and Ferdinand Heilig, we have gained two strong partners who
   will play a key role in supporting our expansion into Oceania. Australia,
   in particular, is already consistently implementing measures to reduce and
   recycle food waste. The potential to convert this waste into high‑value
   raw materials using insect technology is clearly recognized and promoted
   at the policy level.”

    

   About REPLOID Group AG

   REPLOID offers an innovative system for the industrial utilization of
   regional organic residues from the food industry.

   The company builds and services modular and scalable insect-rearing plants
   for its customers – the REPLOID ReFarmUnits. In these plants, young Black
   Soldier Fly larvae supplied by the company receive a site-specific feed
   mix. This mix is developed on the basis of REPLOID’s own research and
   development using residual materials from the regional food value chain.
   After rearing, customers either use the larvae and/or their by-products
   themselves, or REPLOID takes them back for centralized marketing or
   further processing.

   REPLOID sells the reared larvae either directly or, after further
   processing into proteins and fats, for example, to customers in the animal
   feed industry. From the by-products of insect rearing (insect frass), the
   company produces premium organic fertilizer.

   With decentralized upcycling on an industrial scale, REPLOID provides an
   economically attractive solution within the circular economy. Food
   residues and unused food are utilized efficiently, helping to conserve key
   resources over the long term.

   REPLOID Group AG was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in Wels,
   Austria. The company has a global focus and has been listed since July
   2025 on the Vienna Stock Exchange’s direct market plus segment (ticker
   symbol: HRX5). The Group employs more than 190 people.
