Update on Proposed Acquisitions

Ikigai Ventures Limited (LSE: IKIV), a special purpose acquisition company
focused on high-growth, scalable businesses, provides the following update in
relation to its proposed acquisition, originally announced on 21 August 2025,
of Dotlines Global Plc and Audra Solutions Limited (together, the "Target
Group") (the "Proposed Transaction"). The Target Group is an established
UK-headquartered international technology and telecoms group providing digital
platforms, products and services to B2B and B2C customers in southeast Asia
and the UK.

The Proposed Transaction continues to advance and work remains ongoing across
the financial, legal and regulatory streams required for publication of the
relevant admission documentation and completion of the transaction and
admission to AIM. The Company will provide a further substantive update once
the admission documentation and definitive transaction agreements are in final
form.

Commenting on the update, Kane Black, Chief Executive Officer of Ikigai
Ventures Limited, said:

"The Board remains focused on delivering this transaction and positioning the
enlarged group for admission to AIM. We continue to work closely with the
Dotlines and Audra leadership teams as the remaining financial, legal and
regulatory workstreams move towards completion. The combination represents a
compelling multi-jurisdictional technology platform, and the Board remains
confident in the strategic rationale of the Proposed Transaction and believes
it will position the enlarged group for its next phase of growth. We will
update shareholders further as the transaction advances."
