Purpose(s) for which the Issuer is

issuing the Equity Securities

Proceeds will be applied towards:

• Funding the vehicle and infrastructure required to

support the new nine year, $40 million life time value

kerbside collection contract with Ashburton District

Council which commences in September 2026.

• Part funding the implementation costs associated with

the Turnaround Plan referenced in the Fact Sheet

provided to the market on Wednesday, 02/09/2026.

• Growth capital for WCO’s existing business operations.

• General working capital needs of the group.

Reason for placement rather than a

pro-rata rights issue or an offer under

a Share Purchase Plan in which the

Issuer’s existing Equity Security

holders would have been eligible to

participate

WCO has chosen to undertake a Placement in conjunction

with a Share Purchase Plan to raise capital.

The board of directors of WCO have determined that this

capital raising structure is in the best interests of WCO

having regard to flexibility, the selected nature of the

Placement, and lower cost of a targeted Placement and

Share Purchase Plan in respect of existing holders.
