CRUSHMETRIC GROUP LIMITED
("CRUSHMETRIC", "the Company" or "the Group")
Trading Update, Change of Accounting Reference Date & Financial Calendar Update
The Board of Directors of CRUSHMETRIC Group Limited (the "Company") announces that it has resolved to change the Company's accounting reference date ("ARD") from 31 December to 31 March, with immediate effect.
CEO Statement
Michael Ong, Chief Executive Officer, commented:"This change reflects the natural evolution of our business and ensures our financial reporting better aligns with our operational cycle. Moving to a 31 March year-end will provide a clearer picture of our full-year performance, improve comparability with peers, and create a more efficient planning process. While this adjustment extends the current reporting period, it positions us for stronger long-term financial clarity. Our subsidiaries will maintain their existing reporting schedule, as this remains optimal for their standalone operations. Currently, we're advancing high-impact growth initiatives - from global partnerships to flagship retail expansion - that positions us for sustained value creation."
TRADING UPDATE
The Company reports the following strategic progress:
1. MNC Partnerships
Active discussions with multinational corporations regarding:
o Exclusive distribution agreements for core product lines.
o Co-branding opportunities in key growth markets.
2. Flagship Retail Expansion

o Company-owned CRUSHMETRIC flagship stores in strategic global cities.
o Experiential retail formats integrating digital and physical channels.
3. Product Innovation
Advanced development of next generation of the CRUSHMETRIC SwitchPens and Tumblers.
Note: These discussions are ongoing and may not result in binding agreements or materialise. The Company will provide further updates in due course.
