Management Update and Business Review

The Company's entire executive leadership, strategic management, and core operations are based in Israel, operating through its wholly owned subsidiary CTGL Citrine Global Israel Ltd. and its majority-owned subsidiary Cannovation Center Israel Ltd. was renamed SkyTech Orion Ltd. in May 2025.)

On October 7, 2023, a large-scale war broke out in Israel, leading to a prolonged national crisis. The conflict created widespread uncertainty and instability across the country, disrupted the Israeli economy, and adversely affected the Company's operations.

Throughout 2024, the Company remained primarily engaged in the wellness and plant-based health sector. Activities focused on the development of proprietary product lines, strategic collaborations, and minority investments, including in iBOT Israel Botanicals Ltd. These initiatives included the development of nutritional supplements, plant-based cosmetics, and other consumer health products. The Company had also prepared to launch its wellness products in the United States during 2024.

However, the outbreak of war in Israel, and its severe and prolonged impact on the Israeli economy particularly in international-facing consumer markets prevented the Company from proceeding with its planned launch and international sales activities. As a result, the Company experienced material delays in wellness-related product development, fundraising, and marketing efforts, and was unable to fully execute its strategic plans.

In the last quarter of 2024, following an internal review and in light of the evolving business environment, management determined that the existing wellness-focused strategy was no longer sufficient to drive growth. The Company therefore resolved to broaden its scope of activity and prepare for expansion into additional areas of development.

The Company placed a key focus on its government-supported industrial land in Yerucham, Israel-considered a highly strategic asset with substantial potential, located within a designated national innovation and industrial zone.

As part of its strategic review, the Company evaluated this asset within the framework of its Production, Innovation Center platform, aiming to align it with evolving national priorities and global industry needs. This review highlighted a unique opportunity to realign the Company's operations with Israel's growing focus on defense, UMS (Unmanned Systems)

Market Opportunity

UAVs & Drones - the weapons of future wars

UAVs and drones are transforming modern and future warfare. Conflicts in Ukraine and Israel (e.g., the Iron Swords War), as well as proxy engagements with Iran, have exposed vulnerabilities in traditional defense paradigms and emphasized the strategic value of drones.

In Ukraine, drones are responsible for 60-70% of battlefield damage and most casualties. This shift has created a "zone of continuous death" up to 15 km from the front lines.

Meanwhile, Iran and its proxies have developed advanced drone capabilities and supplied them to nations like Russia. Systems such as the Homa, Dideban, and Shahin-1 are now deployed across the region.

Market Projections1:

Aerial Systems: Expected to reach $163.6B by 2030 (CAGR 14.3%).

Commercial Drones: $57.8B by 2030; Drones-as-a-Service: $179.3B.

Market of Small Drones

The war in Ukraine has dramatically accelerated the evolution of tactical small drones and loitering munitions into essential tools of modern warfare. Ukrainian forces have demonstrated the battlefield dominance of mass-produced tactical drones, capable of neutralizing enemy assets worth hundreds or thousands of times more than the cost of each drone. These affordable, scalable systems have become front-line force multipliers, reshaping the nature of asymmetric warfare.

Ukrainian industry is now producing hundreds of thousands of tactical drones annually, with current demand already surpassing one million units per year - underscoring the scale at which modern conflicts require drone-based combat capabilities.

Driven by these urgent operational lessons, the global market for tactical small drones and autonomous loitering systems is projected to grow from $6.4 billion in 2025 to $11.25 billion by 20302. Autonomous drones represent the fastest-growing segment due to their flexibility, speed to field, and battlefield effectiveness.

Regulatory Environment -in the Defense UAV Sector

Due to the outbreak of the Gaza war and its material impact on the Israeli economy, the Company faced significant operational challenges, which resulted in delays to our planned U.S. launch of the wellness product line. As a result, the Company reassessed its strategic direction in response to market realities and national priorities.

In the last quarter of 2024, the Company began transitioning into the defense and aerospace sector, with a specific focus on the development and production of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), drones, and modular FPV systems.

This new line of activity operates under a distinct and stringent regulatory framework. In Israel, the production and commercialization of UAV and drone systems-especially for military or security-related use-require compliance with regulations issued by the Ministry of Defense (MOD), the Directorate of Security for the Defense Establishment (MALMAB), and, where relevant, export control regulations governed by the Israeli Export Control Agency. Manufacturing processes may also require approvals or licenses related to dual-use technologies or restricted components.

In parallel, the Company is developing UAV platforms based solely on certified, Western-approved components, in accordance with applicable international and U.S. defense compliance protocols. This approach ensures compatibility with future expansion into U.S. and NATO markets and aligns with evolving Western regulations prohibiting the use of Chinese-origin components in sensitive defense systems.

The Company is currently advancing the regulatory and certification processes required to enter these markets and will continue to disclose its progress in regulatory compliance and operational readiness in future reports, in accordance with applicable disclosure rules.

Overview of the Company's Past Operations - Wellness and Plant-Based Pharma

Until the last quarter of 2024, the Company was primarily engaged in the wellness and plant-based pharma solutions. The Company's mission was to leverage the power of nature and scientific research to improve health, wellbeing, and quality of life.

The business activity was primarily composed of the development of science-backed plant-based products aimed at improving quality of life and offering complementary solutions to mitigate side effects associated with medicines, treatments, or unbalanced lifestyles. To support this mission, the Company developed an end-to-end strategy covering the full value chain from research and innovation, product development, infrastructure for manufacturing and production, to distribution, marketing, and sales with the goal of bringing innovative plant-based wellness and pharma products to global markets.

The Company developed a broad portfolio of products based on rigorously researched botanical ingredients, including herbal extracts, tinctures, medicinal mushrooms, vitamins, and minerals. In addition, the Company holds equity interests in iBOT Israel Botanicals Ltd. and MyPlant Bio Ltd., as well as ownership of proprietary formulations and product families in the wellness and plant-based health sector.

However, the outbreak of war in Israel, and its severe and prolonged impact on the Israeli economy particularly in international-facing consumer markets, prevented the Company from proceeding with its planned launch and international sales activities. As a result, the Company experienced material delays in wellness-related product development, fundraising, and marketing efforts, and was unable to fully execute its strategic plans.

In the last quarter of 2024, following an internal review and in light of the evolving business environment, management determined that the existing wellness-focused strategy was no longer sufficient to drive growth.

While the Company is now primarily focused on defense technologies, the wellness-related assets remain under the Company's ownership. These include its equity stakes in iBOT and MyPlant, proprietary formulations, and developed product lines. Management continues to assess how these assets can be realized or leveraged in the future in a manner consistent with the Company's current strategic focus on defense.
