TOKYO, JAPAN - October 16, 2026 - Instinct Bio Technical Company Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: BIOT) (“BIOT” or the “Company”), a Japan-based developer, manufacturer and seller of stem-cell-based and regenerative-medicine-related cosmetics and health products, today announced unaudited results for the six months ended May 31, 2026 (“1H FY2026”) of Instinct Bio Technical Company Inc. and its four Japanese operating subsidiaries (the “Operating Group”), which became wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company on July 23, 2026. The interim financial statements, reviewed by Morison LC PLT, and management’s discussion and analysis are furnished to the SEC on Form 6-K today. Results exclude the Company’s predecessor, Relativity Holdings Inc., and business combination costs. Comparisons are with the six months ended May 31, 2025. 1H FY2026 Highlights Revenue of USD 1,142,598, up 4.7% (up 9.8% in yen terms, from JPY 163.7 million to JPY 179.8 million). OEM/ODM revenue (83.4% of total) up 6.5% and Value Village e-commerce revenue up 12.2%, both in yen terms. Gross margin of 72.6% (1H FY2025: 79.7%), reflecting a smaller inventory build, new imported purchases and higher manufacturing overhead. Administrative expenses down 30.1% to USD 741,691, mainly as approximately USD 208,000 of listing-related fees expensed in 1H FY2025 did not recur. Profit after tax of USD 90,251 (1H FY2025: loss of USD 206,817). Largest customer’s share of revenue fell to 34.8% from 51.7% as new OEM/ODM, export and Value Athlete customers were added. Net cash used in operating activities of USD 12,323 (1H FY2025: USD 371,404). Cash of USD 25,565 at May 31, 2026; no bank borrowings. Management Commentary “This is the first set of results we have reported since completing our Nasdaq listing in July. Until now, investors have had little visibility into who we are as a management team and what our business actually does. We chose to report our first half now, and will continue to report every six months, so that shareholders can judge us on facts: revenue grew almost 10% in yen terms, we returned to profit, and our customer base is broader than a year ago. We are not satisfied with our gross margin or cash position, and improving both is our priority for the second half,” said Tomoki Nagano, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Each of the initiatives we announced since July - our U.S. collaboration with INVITRX, our Indonesian product partnership, the GENREVER Clinic in Jakarta and our IN01 representation - is progressing on schedule. Our target is to have them operational by the end of calendar 2026, with revenue contribution beginning in fiscal 2027.” Financial Position and Liquidity At May 31, 2026, total assets were USD 4,080,414, total liabilities USD 1,994,227 and total equity USD 2,086,187 (November 30, 2025: total assets USD 2,994,989, total liabilities USD 952,394 and total equity USD 2,042,595). The increases from November 30, 2025 were driven mainly by other receivables and prepayments, including advances to related parties, and by other payables, including borrowings from directors and related parties. Cash and bank balances were USD 25,565 (November 30, 2025: USD 124,764). The Operating Group’s liquidity depends on collecting receivables, including from related parties, continued support from directors and related parties, and obtaining additional financing as needed. The directors have concluded that the Operating Group has adequate resources to continue as a going concern for at least twelve months. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 6-K. Overseas Initiatives The following initiatives, announced between July and September 2026, did not contribute to 1H FY2026 revenue. All are targeted to be operational within calendar 2026, with revenue contribution expected from fiscal 2027, subject to definitive agreements, regulatory approvals and partner performance.

Following a String of Sold-out Releases, the 100-design Milestone Sets the Stage for YHWH Timepieces’ Next Chapter, With New Watches and Limited-edition Concepts now in Development NEW YORK, NY - October 15, 2026 - YHWH Timepieces has crossed the 100-design mark, giving the brand its largest watch catalog to date and a broader foundation for what comes next. The company now offers more than 100 Scripture-led designs across its current catalog. The range spans different Bible verses, dial colors, case sizes and finishes, while keeping the same underlying idea: Scripture is built into the watch itself. Scripture at the Center of the Collection Founded in 2024 by Thilo Koschuk and Ruben Rosus, YHWH Timepieces has developed around watches that place Bible verses, crosses and references to Christ directly into the design. Current pieces draw from passages including Psalm 23:1, Isaiah 41:10, John 14:6, John 3:16 and Joshua 1:9. The milestone follows a period of strong demand. According to the company, almost every YHWH release to date has sold through, with some pieces spoken for before reaching wider availability. That demand is now helping shape the brand’s next phase. The current YHWH Watches catalog includes Christian watches for men and Christian watches for women across a growing mix of designs and Scripture references. Quartz models remain an important part of the range, while automatic watches and additional collections are also in development. Some watches are built around a particular Bible verse. Others use crosses, engraved details or short statements of faith as part of the design itself. That variety has allowed the catalog to grow without losing the identity established through YHWH’s earlier releases. Brand Positioning and Identity As the collection has expanded, YHWH has also become more clearly defined within the wider market for Christian watches and Bible verse watches. The company describes its positioning as accessible luxury, pairing contemporary watch design with visible expressions of faith. That approach places the brand within the broader Christian luxury watches category while keeping Scripture at the center of the product rather than treating it as an afterthought. The name is part of that identity as well. YHWH, often rendered as Yahweh, is the biblical reference behind the company name. That connection is also reflected in the terms YHWH Watches and Yahweh Watches, both of which point back to the same brand and product family. Plans for Future Collections The company is also considering what the YHWH identity could eventually look like beyond timepieces. Limited-edition concepts in categories such as jewelry, apparel and travel accessories are being explored, although no launch dates have been announced and those products are not yet part of the current catalog. For now, the clearest marker of the brand’s growth is the watches themselves. More than 100 designs now sit under the YHWH name, with additional watches, automatic concepts and future collections still in development. Crossing that threshold gives the Christian watch brand more depth than any individual release could provide and creates a larger platform for what YHWH chooses to build next. About YHWH Timepieces YHWH Timepieces is a Christian watch brand founded in 2024 by Thilo Koschuk and Ruben Rosus. The company creates Christian watches and Bible verse watches that combine contemporary watch design with Scripture and Christian symbolism. Its catalog includes YHWH Watches, Christian watches for men, Christian watches for women and designs positioned within the broader Christian luxury watches category.
