Amsterdam, 8 April 2026 (Regulated Information) --- AMG Critical Materials N.V.

Details of the subscription price and the final number of Offer Shares will be announced as soon as practicable after the books are closed, in a subsequent press release, which is expected to be published before markets open on Euronext Amsterdam on April 9, 2026.

Following the Offering, AMG and AMG’s Management Board have agreed, with customary exceptions, not to issue or dispose of additional ordinary shares for a period of 90 calendar days after the settlement date.
