Strategic Developments • Completed acquisition of Banxa in January 2026, adding licences across 11 jurisdictions and extending reach into Europe, North America and Australia. • Launched OSL AgentPay, providing stablecoin settlement rails for AI-driven machine-to-machine commerce. • Expanded regulatory footprint to 50+ licences and registrations, connecting 70+ banks and payment networks.

Outlook Management will prioritise broadening stablecoin products, accelerating USDGO adoption, enhancing settlement infrastructure, and pursuing disciplined M&A in high-growth markets, while seeking operational efficiencies through automation and AI-enabled processes.
