Bonds in Issue
As of 31st December 2025, the Group had a publicly listed bond in issue, namely the €23,000,000 ACMUS P.L.C. 5.25% Secured Bonds 2028-2030, which was issued pursuant to a Prospectus dated 17th July 2025 and admitted to trading on the Malta Stock Exchange on 21st August 2025. As at 31st December 2025 ACMUS P.L.C. had withdrawn €19,000,000 out of the issued bonds via two tranches of €9,500,000 each.
The Issuer and its Guarantor (ACMUS Properties Limited) entered into a Trust Deed with Equinox International Limited, acting as the Security Trustee, to safeguard the interests of bondholders.
Principal Risks and Uncertainty
The Company is dependent on the performance of its subsidiaries.
The Company is the finance and holding Company of the Group and does not carry out any trading activities of its own. The Company is therefore economically dependent on the performance and financial position of its subsidiaries and associate undertakings. In the event that any subsidiary underperforms in any one financial year or more or otherwise experiences adverse fluctuations or volatility in cash flows, liquidity strains or other financial difficulties, such underperformance or adverse financial position would affect the operational and financial results of the Group as a whole and consequently, that of the Company.
As a holding Company, most of the Company’s income consists of interest on loan receivables it receives from its subsidiaries and dividends when declared. The payment of receivables and distribution of dividends is dependent on the cash flows and earnings of the relevant subsidiaries.
The business activities carried out by the Group companies are subject to a number of market, economic and financial risks as included in the Notes to the financial statements.
Events Subsequent To The Reporting Period
There weren’t any events subsequent to the reporting period to be reported.
Results and Dividends
For the year ended 31st December 2025, the Group generated a turnover of €1,413,000 (2024: €NIL) from its property development business.
 
After accounting for operating expenses and administrative expenses amounting to €70,315 (2024: €44,428) and €194,779 (2024: €87,892) respectively, the Group achieved an EBITDA of €61,791 (2024: loss of €132,320).
 
Finance costs and depreciation amounted to €16,137 (2024: €2,593) and €21,442 (2024: €18,888) respectively, leading to a profit before tax of €24,212 (2024: loss of €153,801).
Following taxation of €111,431 (2024: €NIL), the loss for the year after income tax amounted to €87,219 (2024: €153,801).
The Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend.

Notes to the financial statements
1.General Information
1.1Information about the Group and the Company
ACMUS P.L.C. (C-111213) is a public limited liability Company incorporated in Malta. The Company is the parent company of the Group, which is mainly involved in the construction and property development. The Company was incorporated on 19 February 2025 and, accordingly these financial statements for the Company cover the period from incorporation to 31 December 2025 representing a period of 10 months. This is the first set of financial statements prepared by the Company. The registered office is Hyatt Centric Malta, Triq Santu Wistin, San Giljan, SWQ 3312.
The Group was formed during the current financial period. As part of a capital reorganisation undertaken during the year, the Group financial statements have been prepared using the principles of merger accounting. Consequently, the comparative information presented for the Group represents the results and financial position of ACMUS Property Development Limited (C-104599) which was in existence prior to the formation of the Group and is considered to be the predecessor entity for accounting purposes.
The Company and the subsidiaries are together referred to as ‘the Group’
The current year Group figures reflect the consolidated results and financial position of the Group as constituted following the capital reorganisation.
1.2Basis of preparation
Compliance with IFRS and with the Maltese Companies Act
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU and in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act, Cap. 386 of the Laws of Malta.
Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the accompanying disclosures, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Uncertainty about these assumptions and estimates could result in outcomes that require a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets or liabilities affected in future periods.
Other disclosures relating to the Group’s exposure to risks and uncertainties includes:
Capital management Note 17
Financial instruments risk management and policiesNote 16
Judgements
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the consolidated financial statements:
Capital reorganisation
During the year, the Group undertook a capital reorganisation whereby a new intermediate holding company was incorporated between the operating company and its shareholders. The shareholders of the existing operating company exchanged their shares for shares in the new holding company.
Management has assessed that the transaction is a common control transaction and, as there was no change in the ultimate economic interests of the shareholders, the transaction has been accounted for as an equity transaction. No gain or loss has been recognised in profit or loss in respect of the share-for-share exchange.
The accounting treatment applied required management judgement in assessing the classification of the transaction as a common control reorganisation.

Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions - continued
Estimates and assumptions
The Group based its assumptions and estimates on parameters available when the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Existing circumstances and assumptions about future developments, however, may change due to market changes or circumstances arising that are beyond the control of the Group. Such changes are reflected in the assumptions when they occur.
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year, are described in the below notes:
ECL on amounts due Note 7.7
NRV of inventoryNote 5.3
Cost convention and presentation currency
These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and are presented in euro (“€”), which is also the Group and the Company’s functional currency and the currency in which its share capital is denominated.
1.3Going Concern
The Group registered total revenue of €1,413,000, representing proceeds from the sale of properties which have been fully developed during the current year. The Group reported an EBITDA of €61,791 as shown in the Statement of profit or loss. The Company registered interest income of €491,287 and profit before tax of €6,398.
As at 31 December 2025, the Company’s current assets exceeded current liabilities by €7,407,666. Given the nature of the Company and its function within the Group, of which it is the ultimate parent company, the Company is dependent on the Group for financial support.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group’s current assets exceeded its current liabilities by €33,487,359 (2024: €14,446,250) whereas the Group’s total assets exceeded its total liabilities by €6,990,033(€2024: €84,948). The working capital position as at 31 December 2025 includes a balance of €219,500 (2024: NIL) that represents deferred income which does not have an impact on the Group’s liquidity.
The Directors have prepared a cashflow forecast for the ACMUS P.L.C. Group covering 36 months from the reporting date, considering significant events and transactions that have occurred or are expected to occur subsequent to period end. The cash flow forecasts include expected proceeds from the sale of properties under development and the associated development and operating costs expected to be incurred over the forecast period. A portion of the forecast sales relates to properties for which deposits have already been secured. These deposits were received prior to the reporting date and are recognised as advance deposits within liabilities in the statement of financial position.
The forecasts also take into account the repayment of bank borrowings obtained to part-finance certain development projects. These borrowings are contractually repayable upon the sale of the related properties. In addition, the forecasts include planned capital expenditure to be funded by the Group, as well as the repayment of bond interest arising from bond issuances made during the current financial period.
As part of their assessment, the Directors have considered the impact of adverse scenarios, including delays in the timing of property sales. The cash flow forecasts assume the injection of additional funding from shareholders to enable the Group to meet its obligations as they fall due. Even under these stressed assumptions, the Group is projected to maintain sufficient liquidity throughout the forecast period.
Based on this assessment, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group and the Company have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

The changes resulting from the above standards, interpretations and amendments are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company and the Group.
3.Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective
The new and amended standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, up to the date of issuance of the Group’s financial statements are disclosed below. The Group intends to adopt these new and amended standards and interpretations, if applicable, when they become effective.
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals. Furthermore, entities are required to classify all income and expenses within the statement of profit or loss into one of five categories: operating, investing, financing, income taxes and discontinued operations, whereof the first three are new. The standard requires disclosure of newly defined management-defined performance measures, subtotals of income and expenses, and it also includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified ‘roles’ of the primary financial statements (PFS) and the notes.
In addition, narrow-scope amendments have been made to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows, which include changing the starting point for determining cash flows from operations under the indirect method, from ‘profit or loss’ to ‘operating profit or loss’ and removing the optionality around classification of cash flows from dividends and interest.
In addition, there are consequential amendments to several other standards. IFRS 18, and the amendments to the other standards, are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, but earlier application is permitted and must be disclosed. IFRS 18 will apply retrospectively.
The Group is currently working to identify all impacts the amendments will have on the primary financial statements and notes to the financial statements. The initial expected material impacts on Group’s financial statements are, as follows:
-New disclosure will be added: (a) management-defined performance measures; (b) specified expense by nature if expenses are presented by function in the operating category of the statement of profit or loss;
and (c) a reconciliation for each line item in the statement of profit or loss between the restated amounts presented applying IFRS 18 and the amounts previously presented applying IAS 1.
-Interest received and interest paid will be classified in the investing activities and financing activities, respectively, on the statement of cash flows.

3.Standards, interpretations and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective – continued
IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability:
In May 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 19, which allows eligible entities to elect to apply its reduced disclosure requirements while still applying the recognition, measurement and presentation requirements in other IFRS accounting standards. To be eligible, at the end of the reporting period, an entity must be a subsidiary as defined in
IFRS 10, cannot have public accountability and must have a parent (ultimate or intermediate) that prepares consolidated financial statements, available for public use, which comply with IFRS accounting standards. IFRS 19 will become effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with early application permitted.
As the Group’s instruments are publicly traded, it is not eligible to elect to apply IFRS 19.
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments—Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7
In May 2024, the IASB issued Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (the Amendments). The Amendments include:
-A clarification that a financial liability is derecognised on the ‘settlement date’ and the introduction of an accounting policy choice (if specific conditions are met) to derecognise financial liabilities settled using an electronic payment system before the settlement date
-Additional guidance on how the contractual cash flows for financial assets with environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) and similar features should be assessed
-Clarifications on what constitute ‘non-recourse features’ and what are the characteristics of contractually linked instruments
-The introduction of disclosures for financial instruments with contingent features and additional disclosure requirements for equity instruments classified at fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI)
The Amendments are effective for annual periods starting on or after 1 January 2026 with early adoption permitted for classification of financial assets and related disclosures only.
The Group does not anticipate that the amendments will have a material effect on the Group’s financial statements.
4.Reorganisation of Group
The Company was incorporated on 19 February 2025 under the terms of the Maltese Companies Act, 1995. In July 2025, the Company acquired 100% direct shareholding in ACMUS Property Development Limited through an exchange of shares it issued to The Ona Property Development Limited (C-82490) and Muscat Holdings (II) Limited (C-89275) for a consideration of €3,075,926.
ACMUS Property Development Limited was already in existence and operating. The substance of the acquisition was that of a group restructuring by virtue of which the Company became the new parent company of the Group. This transaction has been accounted for in the consolidated financial statements as a reorganisation, and these have been compiled as though ACMUS P.L.C. was already the parent Company of the Group from incorporation.
The accounting policies are consistent with the policies previously adopted by ACMUS P.L.C.’s subsidiaries except for reorganisation between Group entities under common control are accounted for using the reorganisation method of accounting. Under the reorganisation method of accounting, assets and liabilities are incorporated at the predecessor carrying values, which are the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of the acquired entity’s pre organisation financial statements. No goodwill arises in reorganisation accounting, and any difference between the consideration given and the aggregate book value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity is included in equity. The financial statements incorporate the acquired entities’ full year results, including comparatives, as if the pre-reorganisation structure was already in place at the commencement of the comparative period. As a result of this group restructuring, the Company became the new parent company of the Group.

5.Inventories
Inventories comprise properties held in various locations that are held for development and sale in the ordinary course of business. These properties include both completed units and properties under construction. Property held for development and re-sale is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost includes the purchase price of the property and development costs incurred to date. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs to completion and costs to be incurred in marketing and selling.
Cost incurred in bringing each property to its present location and condition includes:
i.Freehold and leasehold rights for land
ii.Amounts paid to contractors for development and finishings
iii.Planning and design costs, costs of site preparation, professional fees for legal services, property transfer taxes, borrowing costs, development overheads and other related costs
When an inventory property is sold, the carrying amount of the property is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised. The carrying amount of inventory property recognised in profit or loss is determined with reference to the directly attributable costs incurred on the property sold and an allocation of any other related costs based on the sales price of the property sold.

5.2Reconciliation of inventories - continued
Note i – Transfer to cost of sales
Cost of sales relates to the sale of completed residential units from one development site within the Group’s property portfolio, the construction and finishing of which were completed during the current financial year. The cost of the units sold is recognised in the statement of profit or loss under the line item “Cost of sales”.
The cost of sales comprises the proportionate share of land acquisition costs and capitalised development and directly attributable costs included within inventories, allocated to individual units based on sales price of each unit sold. The corresponding reduction in inventories is recognised at the date control of the units is transferred to the buyer.
Note ii - Capitalised borrowing costs
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use or sale are capitalised as part of the cost of the asset. All other borrowing costs are expensed in the period in which they occur. Borrowing costs consist of bank and bond interest and other costs that the Company incurs in connection with the borrowing of funds.
During the year, the Group continued the construction of previously acquired development projects and commenced construction on new projects. These projects are financed through a bond issue and bank borrowings.
Borrowing costs capitalised during the year amounted to €1,004,319 (2024: €563,348). The capitalisation rates used to determine the amount of borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation were 5.25% for the bond financing and 5% - 5.2% for bank borrowings, representing the effective interest rates of the respective specific borrowings.
5.3Estimates and judgements
Inventories include properties held for sale which are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value in accordance with IAS 2 Inventories. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
The determination of net realisable value requires the use of management judgement and estimates. In assessing the recoverability of property inventory, management considers a number of factors including recent market transactions for comparable properties, current market conditions, expected selling prices, stage of completion of the properties and estimated costs required to complete and sell the properties. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted where necessary to reflect current market conditions and available information. Where the net realisable value of a property is lower than its carrying amount, a write-down is recognised in profit or loss.
Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in estimating selling prices and future costs, actual outcomes may differ from these estimates.
6.Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
7.Financial assets
7.1Initial recognition and measurement
At initial recognition, the Group and the Company classify their financial assets as subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial assets at amortised cost are measured using the effective interest method and are subject to impairment. The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow characteristics and the Group’s and Company’s business model for managing them. At initial recognition, the Group and the Company measure a financial asset at its fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.

7.2Subsequent measurement
Financial assets at amortised cost are subsequently measured using the effective interest rate (“EIR”) method and are subject to impairment in accordance with the expected credit loss model. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the financial asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.
7.3Debt instruments
The Group’s financial assets measured at amortised cost comprise other receivable balances, including bond funds held by the trustee that remain unutilised at the reporting date, deposits paid on promise of sale agreements for the acquisition of properties, deposits on furnishings and finishings relating to property development projects recognised within inventories and amounts due from commonly controlled entities outside the Group. The Company’s financial assets also include amounts due from subsidiaries in respect of bond proceeds and other funds advanced to those subsidiaries included under non-current financial assets.
7.4Derecognition
A financial asset is primarily derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired or the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset or has assumed an obligation to pay the received cash flows in full without material delay to a third party under a ‘pass-through’ arrangement; and either the Group has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or the Group has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset
When the Group has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from an asset or has entered into a passthrough arrangement, it evaluates if, and to what extent, it has retained the risks and rewards of ownership. When it has neither transferred nor retained substantially all of the risks and rewards of the asset, nor transferred control of the asset, the Group continues to recognise the transferred asset to the extent of its continuing involvement.
7.5Impairment
Further disclosures relating to impairment of financial assets are also provided in the following notes:
-Disclosures for significant assumptions in note 7.7
-Financial management risk in note 16.3
The Group recognises an allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) for all debt instruments. ECLs are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms. ECLs are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECLs are provided for credit losses that result from default events that are possible within the next 12-months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is required for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of the timing of the default (a lifetime ECL).
The Group considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Group may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Group is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Group. A financial asset is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows.

 Note i – Bond proceeds held at trustee
Bond proceeds amounting to €7,777,508 are held by a trustee in accordance with the terms of the bond issue and are released to the Group upon instruction to finance property acquisitions and related development expenditure. At the reporting date these funds remain unutilised and are recognised within other receivables as amounts recoverable from the trustee.
Note ii – Loans to subsidiaries
€10,637,640 of this balance relates to a loan advanced to a subsidiary using bond proceeds in accordance with the terms of the relevant bond prospectus dated 17 July 2025. This loan is structured on a back-to-back basis with the bond funds and bear interest at 5.3% per annum, payable in accordance with the loan agreement.
The loan is secured by collateral, which includes the constitution of first-ranking special hypothecs over the secured properties. This loan was used to finance the land acquisition, development, and construction of property projects. They are repayable in tranches between August 2028 and August 2030, in line with the utilisation of the underlying bond proceeds by the subsidiaries.
€6,834,059 of the loan balance, advanced by the Group’s shareholder companies, is unsecured, bears interest at a rate of 5.3% per annum, and is repayable upon the completion and sale of the underlying property units subject to first settlement of bond and bank borrowings.
Note iii – Amounts owed by subsidiaries
These amounts represent interest charged to subsidiaries on loans advanced in note ii. These amounts are unsecured, interest free and repayable on demand.
7.7Estimates and judgements
The Group measures expected credit losses (“ECLs”) on bond proceeds held by the trustee and the Company on amounts due from subsidiaries relating to bond proceeds and other funds advanced to finance the acquisition, development and construction of property projects. These balances are subject to impairment using the general approach under IFRS 9.
-Loans to subsidiaries
Under the general approach, the Company measure ECLs using a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses determined by applying estimates of probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and exposure at default (EAD). The ECL assessment incorporates reasonable and supportable forward-looking information, including assumptions regarding the expected performance of the underlying property development projects and broader economic conditions. The estimation of PDs reflects the likelihood that the subsidiaries will be unable to meet their repayment obligations, taking into consideration factors such as the subsidiaries’ financial position, expected cash flows from property developments, project completion timelines and prevailing market conditions. LGD estimates

7.Financial assets – continued
7.7Estimates and judgements - continued
Loans to subsidiaries - continued
reflect the expected recoverability of amounts advanced, including consideration of the value of underlying assets and projects being financed.
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition and update the assumptions used in estimating PD, LGD and EAD accordingly. The measurement of ECLs on amounts due from subsidiaries requires significant estimates. Changes in assumptions regarding project cash flows, property market conditions, development timelines and broader economic factors may result in material adjustments to the recognised ECL allowance.
-Bond proceeds held at trustee
The ECL assessment is performed using the general approach, under which the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to 12-month ECLs unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. The estimation of ECLs incorporates probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and exposure at default (EAD), taking into account the creditworthiness of the trustee and available forward-looking information.
In assessing the credit risk associated with these balances, the Group and the Company consider the trustee’s external credit standing, reputation and financial strength as a regulated institution. Based on this assessment, the credit risk associated with the trustee is considered to be low and no significant increase in credit risk has been identified since initial recognition.
Accordingly, the resulting ECL recognised on these balances is not material. However, the assessment of ECLs requires the use of judgement, particularly in evaluating the credit risk of the counterparty and the impact of forward-looking economic conditions.
8.Financial liabilities
8.1Initial recognition, measurement and presentation
Financial liabilities are classified, at initial recognition, as loans and borrowings or payables as appropriate. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value net of directly attributable transaction costs. The Group’s financial liabilities include trade and other payables and borrowings comprising bank borrowings and bonds.
8.2Subsequent measurement
After initial recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the Effective Interest Rate (EIR) method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liabilities are derecognised as well as through the EIR amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by considering any discount or premium on acquisition and fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR. The EIR amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. This category generally applies to interest-bearing loans and borrowings.
8.3Derecognition
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss.

Note i – Debt securities in issue
In August 2025, ACMUS P.LC. issued an aggregate principal amount of €23,000,000 bonds (2028-2030), having a nominal value of EUR100 each, bearing interest at the rate of 5.25% per annum, to finance the acquisition, construction and finishing of the sites in Marsascala and St. Paul’s Bay. Out of which, €19,00,000 were withdrawn during the financial year. These bonds are subject to the terms and conditions in the prospectus dated 17 July 2025 and secured by:
-First-ranking special privilege over the sites in St. Paul’s Bay and Marsascala
-First-ranking general hypothec by the Issuer and by the Guarantor in favour of the Security Trustee, its respective assets present and future for the full nominal value of the Secured Bonds and interest thereon
-First-ranking special hypothec by the Guarantor in favour of the Security Trustee for the full nominal value of the Secured Bonds and interest thereon over each of the sites purchased by the Guarantor and which are funded by a Tranche of Secured Bonds
-Pledge on Insurance Policies as security for the full nominal value of the Secured Bonds and interest thereon whereby the Guarantor shall pledge in the Security Trustee’s favour its rights under the Insurance Policies.
The bonds are listed on the Official Companies List of the Malta Stock Exchange. The quoted market price as at 31 December 2025 was €100. The fair value of the bond as at 31 December 2025 amounted to €19,000,000. Interest on the bonds is due and payable annually in arrears on 20 August of each year at the above-mentioned rate.
Note ii – Bank borrowings
These loans are secured by general hypothecs over the assets of the Group and special hypothecs over the Group’s properties classified as inventory. The Group has loan facilities of €18,552,000 out of which €6,139,911 has not yet been utilised as at year end.
The Group’s bank borrowings are not subject to financial covenants. Accordingly, there are no covenant conditions with which the Group is required to comply in relation to its borrowings as at the reporting date.
Note iii – Shareholders’ loans
During the financial year, the terms of a loan previously recognised as a payable were amended. Under the original agreement, the loan was contractually repayable. Following the amendment to the agreement, the Company obtained discretion over the timing of repayment.
In view of this change in contractual terms, and considering the substance of the revised arrangement, the balance has been reclassified from a payable to capital contributions in the financial statements with effect from the date of the amended agreement. Refer to note 18.3

Note iii – Amounts due to other related entities
These amounts are unsecured, interest free and repayable on demand.
9.Interest in subsidiaries
A subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the Company. The Company controls an investee when the Company is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.
The Group financial statements include the financial statements of the parent Company and all its subsidiaries. The results of the subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the Group statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the date of their acquisition or up to date of their disposal.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the equity holders of the parent of the Group and to the non-controlling interests, even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance. When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with the Group’s accounting policies. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses, cash flows and any unrealised gains relating to transactions between members of the Group are eliminated in full on consolidation.
A change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary, without a loss of control, is accounted for as an equity transaction.
If the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the related assets (including any goodwill), liabilities, non-controlling interest and other components of equity, while any resultant gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. Any investment retained is recognised at fair value.
In the Company’s financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are accounted for on the basis of the direct equity interest and are stated at pre organisation amounts less any accumulated impairment losses. Dividends from the investment are recognised in profit or loss.
In February 2025 ACMUS properties Limited was formed as a fully owned subsidiary of ACMUS P.L.C . In July 2025, the Company acquired 100% of the share capital of ACMUS Property Development Limited through an exchange of shares.

All subsidiary undertakings are included in the consolidation and are accounted for on the basis of direct equity interest and are stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses.

Management assessed that the fair values of cash and short-term deposits, trade receivables, trade payables, bank overdrafts and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
12Property, Plant and Equipment
The Company’s property, plant and equipment comprise computer equipment. Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for on the straight-line method in order to write off cost over the expected useful economic lives of the assets over 4 years. The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed and adjusted if appropriate, at each statement of financial position date. Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount and are taken into account in determining operating profit.
An asset's carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if its carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

13Revenue from contract with customers
Revenue includes all revenues from the ordinary business activities of the Group and is recorded net of value added tax. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Group recognises revenue when (or as) it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a promised good to the customer. The Group recognises revenue from sale of inventory property.
The sale of completed property constitutes a single performance obligation, and the Group has determined that this is satisfied at the point in time when control transfers. For unconditional exchange of contracts, this generally occurs when legal title transfers to the customer. For conditional exchanges, this generally occurs when all significant conditions are satisfied. Payments are received when legal title is transferred.

14.1Finance income
Finance income comprises interest income earned on financing arrangements with subsidiary undertakings. The Company advances funds to its subsidiaries primarily from the proceeds of bonds issued by the Company and other financing provided by the shareholders. These balances bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.3% per annum. Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method over the period in which it accrues.

14.2Finance costs
Finance costs consist primarily of interest expense arising on the Company’s debt securities in issue. Given that the proceeds of these debt securities are used to finance property development activities within the Group, the related borrowing costs are capitalised in accordance with the Group’s accounting policy on borrowing costs. Accordingly, the interest expense is included in inventory (property under development) at Group level while the qualifying assets are under construction. Interest is capitalised over the period during which the development assets are being constructed and until they are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Bond issue costs represent fees and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of bonds and are amortised over the term of the bond.
14.6Income taxes
Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date in the country where the Group operates and generates taxable income.
Current income tax is charged or credited to profit or loss. Current income tax relating to items realized directly in equity is realized in equity and not in the statement of profit or loss. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in the tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulations are subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate.
The charge for current tax is based on the taxable result for the period. The taxable result for the period differs from the result as reported in profit or loss because it excludes items which are non-assessable or disallowed and it further excludes items that are taxable or deductible in other periods.

15.Segment reporting
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”).
The board of ACMUS P.L.C., (“the Board”) assesses the financial performance and position of the Group and makes strategic decisions. The Board has been identified as being the CODM.
16.Financial instruments risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s principal financial liabilities, other than derivatives, comprise loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to finance the Group’s operations. The Group’s principal financial assets include other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and loans advanced to subsidiaries.
The Group is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group and the Company’s risk management is coordinated by the Directors and focuses on actively securing the Group and the Company’s short term to medium term cash flows by minimising the exposure to financial risks. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks, which are summarised below.
16.1Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises interest rate risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk include loans and borrowings.
16.2Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Group’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.
The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk is limited to the variable interest rates on borrowings. This applies to all of the Group’s bank borrowings as per Note 8.4 whose applicable interest rates are linked to either the 3-month Euribor or the bank’s base rate. Based on observations of current market conditions, the Directors consider an upward or downward movement in interest of between 1% to 2% to be reasonably possible. However, the potential impact of such a variance is considered immaterial.
The Group manages its interest rate risk by having a balanced portfolio of fixed and variable rate loans and borrowings.
At 31 December 2025, approximately 61% of the Group’s borrowings are at a fixed rate of interest (2024: 0%).
16.3Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.
Related party loans
Credit risk arising from loans advanced to related companies is managed at Group level. These balances primarily comprise funds advanced to subsidiaries from bond proceeds in accordance with the terms of the bond prospectus, as well as other advances funded by shareholder companies. The loans advanced from bond proceeds bear interest at a rate of 7% and are secured by collateral, including the constitution of first-ranking special hypothecs over the underlying properties being developed by the subsidiaries. The terms of these loans are structured on a back-to-back basis with the underlying bond arrangements.
The Group monitors the creditworthiness of the related counterparties on an ongoing basis. In assessing credit risk, management considers the financial position of the subsidiaries, projected cash flows from property development activities, expected proceeds from the sale of completed units and the value of the underlying secured properties. The Group therefore considers the credit risk associated with these balances to be linked primarily to the performance and cash-generating ability of the underlying property development projects.

16.Financial instruments risk management objectives and policies – continued
16.3Credit risk - continued
An impairment assessment is performed at each reporting date in accordance with IFRS 9 using the general expected credit loss approach. Expected credit losses are estimated using a probability-weighted model based on probability of default (PD), loss given default (LGD) and exposure at default (EAD). The assessment incorporates reasonable and supportable forward-looking information, including assumptions regarding the expected timing of property sales, projected development cash flows and prevailing property market conditions.
For loans advanced from bond proceeds, the existence of collateral in the form of first-ranking special hypothecs over the secured properties is considered in determining the LGD component of the ECL model. Management also considers the expected recoverability of the underlying assets and projected sales values when assessing potential credit losses.
The Group also has other advances to related companies funded by shareholder companies. These balances bear interest and are unsecured. The recoverability of these advances is assessed based on the expected future cash flows of the borrowing entities and the Group’s ongoing financial support of those entities.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the carrying amount of these financial assets as disclosed in Note 7.6. Based on the impairment assessment performed at the reporting date, management considers the expected credit losses on these balances to be immaterial.
Banks and cash and bond funds held with trustee
Credit risk from balances with banks and financial institutions is managed by the Group’s treasury department in accordance with the Group’s policy. Investments of surplus funds are made only with approved counterparties and within credit limits assigned to each counterparty. Counterparty credit limits are reviewed by the Group’s Board of Directors on an annual basis and may be updated throughout the year subject to approval of the Group’s Finance Committee. The limits are set to minimise the concentration of risks and therefore mitigate financial loss through a counterparty’s potential failure to make payments.
The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk for the components of the statement of financial position at 31 December 2025 and 2024 is the carrying amounts are:

16.4Liquidity risk
The Group and the Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arises from its obligations to meet financial liabilities, which comprise debt securities, trade and other payables and other financial liabilities. Prudent liquidity risk management includes maintaining sufficient cash and committed credit facilities to ensure the availability of an adequate amount of funding to meet the Group and the Company’s obligations when they become due.

17.Capital management
For the purpose of the Group and the Company’s capital management, capital includes issued capital and all other equity reserves attributable to the equity holders of the parent. The primary objective of the Group’s and the Company’s capital maximise the shareholder value. The Group and the Company manage their capital structure and make adjustments in light of changes in economic conditions.
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern while maintaining an appropriate capital structure to support its property development activities.
Given the nature of the Group’s operations in property development, projects are typically financed through a combination of equity and external borrowings during the construction phase, with debt levels reducing as properties are sold and proceeds are received. As a result, leverage levels may fluctuate significantly over the life cycle of a development project.
Accordingly, the Group does not manage capital based on a specific target gearing ratio. Instead, management monitors the capital structure through ongoing assessment of funding requirements for development projects, expected sales proceeds, and the Group’s ability to meet its financing obligations as they fall due.
18.Equity
18.1Share capital
Ordinary shares issued by the Company are classified as equity instruments. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

During the year, as part of a restructuring of the Group, the Company issued 248,800 ordinary shares at a price of €11.36304662 per share. The excess of the issue price over the nominal value of the shares issued has been recognised in the share premium reserve in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act.
18.3Capital contribution
Capital contribution represents amounts arising from the capitalisation of shareholder borrowings as part of the restructuring of the Group. Under this arrangement, certain balances previously due to shareholders were converted into equity and accordingly reclassified from liabilities to equity.
These amounts are repayable in shares and therefore do not give rise to a contractual obligation to deliver cash or another financial asset. As a result, they are presented within equity in the statement of financial position.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
ACMUS P.L.C.

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the consolidated and stand-alone parent company financial statements of ACMUS P.L.C. set out on pages 6 to 33 which comprise the consolidated and parent company statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, and the consolidated and parent company statement of profit and loss and comprehensive income, changes in equity and cashflow for the year then ended including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2025, and of their financial performance and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act (Cap. 386), enacted in Malta.
Our opinion is consistent with our additional report to the audit committee.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Group and the Parent Company in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in accordance with the Accountancy Profession (Code of Ethics for Warrant Holders) Directive issued in terms of the Accountancy Profession Act (Cap. 281) in Malta, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code.
To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services that we have provided to the Group and the Company are in accordance with the applicable law and regulations in Malta and that we have not provided non-audit services that are prohibited under Article 18A of the Accountancy Profession Act (Cap. 281).
Our Audit Approach
As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. In particular, we considered where the directors made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. We have determined the matter described below to be the key audit matter to be communicated in our report.
Recoverability of Parent Company loans to its Subsidiary Companies
The principal activity of the Company, ACMUS P.L.C., is to raise financial resources from the capital markets in order to finance the capital projects of the companies forming part of the ACMUS Group. The debt securities issued by the Company are guaranteed by its subsidiaries and secured by properties owned by these entities.
The proceeds from the debt securities in issue have been advanced to one of the Company’s subsidiaries, ACMUS Properties Limited, under terms and duration similar to those of the debt securities, but at a higher lending rate. This margin enables ACMUS P.L.C. to cover its operating expenses.
In addition, the Company has obtained shareholder financing amounting to €7 million, which has been advanced to another subsidiary, ACMUS Property Development Limited, under terms similar to those applicable to the loan granted to ACMUS Properties Limited.
The recoverability of the loans advanced to ACMUS Properties Limited and ACMUS Property Development Limited, as well as the servicing of the related debt, is dependent on the successful performance of the operations of these subsidiaries within the Group.
Loans and receivables include funds advanced to the subsidiary companies, ACMUS Properties Limited guarantor of the bond issue and ACMUS Property Development Limited by the Company. Loan balances with this related party as at 31 December 2025 amounted to €18 million.
As explained in accounting policy Note 7.5, the recoverability of these loans is assessed at the end of each financial year.
Our audit procedures on the recoverability of the parent company loans to its subsidiaries included amongst others:
-Obtaining an understanding of management’s assessment of the recoverability of the loans and the process followed in evaluating whether any impairment indicators exist;
-Evaluating the financial position and performance of the subsidiaries, including reviewing their latest management accounts, budgets and cash flow forecasts;
-Assessing the reasonableness of the key assumptions used by management in preparing the forecasts, including expected revenues, development timelines and projected cash inflows;
-Comparing historical forecasts to actual results, where available, in order to assess the reliability of management’s forecasting process;
-Evaluating whether the subsidiary is expected to generate sufficient cash flows to enable it to meet its obligations to the parent company as they fall due;
-Reviewing supporting documentation relating to the underlying assets and projects held by the subsidiaries, including property valuations where relevant;
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
ACMUS P.L.C.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
-Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures included in the financial statements in relation to the loan and the associated estimation uncertainty.
Valuation of inventory
As disclosed in Note 5.1 to the financial statements, property inventory amounted to €30.8million as at 31 December 2025 and represents a significant portion of the Company’s total assets. Property inventory mainly comprises development properties and completed units held for sale.
In accordance with IAS 2 Inventories, inventory is measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value (“NRV”). The determination of NRV requires management to apply judgement when estimating expected selling prices, costs to complete development projects, selling costs and final withholding tax.
The valuation of property inventory is sensitive to changes in property market conditions and the accuracy of management’s estimates regarding selling prices and costs to complete developments. A reduction in expected selling prices or an increase in development costs could result in inventory being carried above its net realisable value.
Given the materiality of the balance and the significant judgement involved in determining net realisable value, we considered the valuation of property inventory to be a key audit matter.
Our audit procedures in relation to the valuation of property inventory included, among others:
-Obtained an understanding of management’s process for assessing whether property inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value in accordance with IAS 2 Inventories.
-Tested, on a sample basis, the costs capitalised to property inventory by agreeing them to supporting documentation such as supplier invoices, contractor certificates, development cost schedules, labour costs and borrowing costs.
-Audit procedures carried out in relation to net realisable value included compared estimated selling prices used by management with recent sales transactions, signed promise of sale agreements and available market data for comparable properties.
-Assessed management’s estimates of costs to complete ongoing developments by comparing them with approved project budgets, contractual agreements with contractors and historical cost data.
-Evaluated the adequacy of the disclosures in the financial statements relating to property inventory.
Other Information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the directors’ report and the Statement of Compliance with the Principles of Good Corporate Governance. Except for our opinions on the directors’ report in accordance with the Companies Act (Cap.386) and on the Corporate Governance Statement of Compliance in accordance with the Capital Markets Rules issued by the Maltese Financial Services Authority, our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not and will not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
ACMUS P.L.C.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
With respect to the Directors’ Report, we also considered whether the Directors’ Report includes the disclosures required by Article 177 of the Maltese Companies Act (Cap. 386). Based on the work we have performed, in our opinion:
the information given in the directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
the directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with the Maltese Companies Act (Cap.386).
In addition, in light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we are required to report if we have identified material misstatements in the directors’ report. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors and those charged with governance for the financial statements
The directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group and the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors have delegated the responsibility for overseeing the Group’s and the Company’s financial reporting process to the Audit Committee.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit Committee
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF
ACMUS P.L.C.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
-Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.
-Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this statement is not a guarantee as to the Group’s and the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
-Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the Audit Committee, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Report on Corporate Governance Statement of Compliance
The Capital Markets Rules issued by the Malta Financial Services Authority require the directors to prepare and include in their Annual Report a Statement of Compliance providing an explanation of the extent to which they have adopted the Code of Principles of Good Corporate Governance and the effective measures that they have taken to ensure compliance throughout the accounting period with those Principles.
The Capital Markets Rules also require the auditor to include a report on the Statement of Compliance prepared by the directors.
We read the Statement of Compliance and consider the implications for our report if we become aware of any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the financial statements included in the Annual Report. Our responsibilities do not extend to considering whether this statement is consistent with any other information included in the Annual Report.
We are not required to, and we do not, consider whether the Board’s statements on internal control included in the Statement of Compliance cover all risks and controls, or form an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s corporate governance procedures or its risk and control procedures.
In our opinion, the Statement of Compliance set out on pages 5 to 7 has been properly prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Capital Markets Rules issued by the Malta Financial Services Authority.
