The Board of Directors of CGB wishes to announce that, on 22 October 2026, CRGI and GQ reached an agreement with the Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia ("IRB") on the settlement of the tax disputes at RM8.3 million in total, subject to the finalisation of the settlement documentation. The settlement is not expected to have any material financial impact on the CGB Group, as the settlement amount has been provided for in CRGI and GQ's financial statements.

The Company does not expect the settlement to have any further material adverse impact on the operations of the CGB Group.
The Company will make further announcements should there be any material developments in relation to this matter.
