13dug.com Next-generation seismic imaging eMP-FWI Imaging stands at the cutting edge of seismic imaging technology, and DUG’s proprietary HPC environment supercharges its scalability, revenue potential, and market impact. Elastic MP-FWI Imaging: Best and Fastest Seismic Elastic MP-FWI Imaging: Straight to Rock Properties Multi-Client Expands the Seismic Market Simulates full-wave propagation through the Earth, capturing elastic properties for unparalleled subsurface clarity. Increased subsurface clarity reduces drilling uncertainty, helping clients save hundreds of millions in potential well - placement errors. Accurate rock property information is critical for oil and gas companies as it underpins decisions about exploration, appraisal and subsurface characterisation. eMP-FWI Imaging simultaneously produces seismic images and elastic rock properties, delivering deeper and more accurate insights in a fraction of the time. Multi-Client is a high -margin, repeat license business, and a bigger market than proprietary seismic processing. One dataset, multiple customers – leveraging DUG’s advanced imaging to create a premium product.
Page 14
14dug.com o Multi-Client applies DUG’s imaging technology to seismic data the Company holds rights to, alone or through partners, licensing the resulting dataset to many clients rather than one. o DUG spent FY26 building the Multi- Client library and associated commercial partnerships. The Company finishes the year with twelve seismic data projects in the library at varying stages of completion. o The Multi-Client business gained momentum through the year to deliver full-year revenue of US$4.1m. This included US$2.6m of revenue in FY26- Q4 as the broader project library began contributing to revenue. o Multi-Client as a market is considerably larger than proprietary (single client) processing and imaging.

17dug.com Financial Performance
Page 18
18dug.com o Services revenue increased 23% in FY26, driven by performance in emerging markets of Brazil and the Middle East, and the building momentum in DUG’s Multi-Client business. o Total Software and HPCaaS revenue grew to US$22.6 million in FY26, up 110% on FY25. Together they contributed 26% of total revenue in FY26, up from 17% in FY25. The US$9.3 million Software and HPC Infrastructure award1 will help in delivering further growth to these two business lines in FY27. o Employee benefits increased 23% in FY26, driven by higher headcount as the Brazilian office ramped up and staff were added to facilitate the growing Software and HPCaaS businesses. o Other expenses increased 38% in FY26. This growth was driven by the MP2 settlement expense, increased partner costs, and incremental IT expenditure due to increased compute capacity. o EBITDA margins expanded materially faster than revenue in FY26. Demonstrating the operating leverage within the business and the benefit of the changing sales mix. o FY26-Q4 EBITDA margin of 27% reflected a temporary increase in Services delivery costs of US$0.9 million due to the utilisation of third-party compute. This occurred due to the peak compute demand of several large projects aligning. These costs will continue into FY27-Q1 and then cease. o Adjusted for US$4.3m of R&D concessions which are disclosedin Other Income, the tax expense reduces to US$1.6mrepresentingan effective tax rate of 19%. DUG paid US$35,000 of cashincome tax during the year. The business holds US$41.9 million of unrecognised netdeferred tax assets at 30 June 2026 across various tax jurisdictions.

19dug.com o The Company has net debt of US$13.0m, with total asset financing of US$23.5m at 30 June 2026. o Contract assets increased during the year with emerging regions, Brazil and the Middle East, having more milestone billing based projects. o HPC Right-Of-Use Assets were reclassified from property, plant and equipment (“PPE”) to right-of-use assets during the year. The FY25 comparison period has been updated in the financial statements. This was done to more accurately represent the nature of the assets. o PPE increased materially in the year due to: o Investments into HPC infrastructure during the year. This includes US$12.9 million of hardware received on the 30th of June 2026 that was purchased and partially used to deliver on the US$9.3m software and HPC infrastructure contract 1 and to provide further capacity moving forward; and o Transfers from Right-Of-Use assets to PPE for HPC infrastructure that reached the end of its asset financing term. o Contract liabilities increased as favourable billing terms on some projects allowed cash to be collected ahead of revenue recognition. o Trade and other payables increased with the receipt of new HPC infrastructure on the 30th of June 2026.

20dug.com o DUG generated US$20.9 million of operating cash inflows in FY26, up 273% on FY25. Normalising for the MP2 settlement paid in FY26-Q4, operating cash inflows were US$22.4 million for the year, up 300% on FY25. Cash conversion reflects the same operating leverage and shift in sales mix that drove the margin expansion. o The Company will issue HPC and software-related invoices of US$18.3 million in September 2026. o Net cash used in investing activities increased to US$11.6m in FY26, with investments made into the HPC cluster and data storage capacity. o Net cash outflows from financing activities amounted to US$15.2m, reflecting scheduled repayments on asset financing lease obligations.

22dug.com FY27 Outlook Software and HPCaaS set for continued growth FY27 will have a full year of revenue from contracts won in FY26, alongside the US$9.3m software and HPC infrastructure award 1 Compute capacity is in place to support growth Sustained investment across FY24 to FY26, including the June 2026 delivery, means the infrastructure to support higher volumes is already built High levels of industry activity, with growing exploration budgets and programs Higher oil prices are lifting client activity, while falling reserve life across the majors is pushing exploration into more complex settings where imaging quality decides whether a prospect is drillable 1 See the ASX announcement titled “US$9.3 million Software and HPC Infrastructure Award” dated 26 August 2026.
