Genius Group Completes Fourth Repurchase of One Million Shares

SINGAPORE, Dec. 10, 2025 — (NYSE American: GNS) (“Genius Group” or the “Company”), a leading AI-driven, Bitcoin-first education group, announced today that on December 9, 2025, the Company repurchased one million shares of its stock on the open market at an average price of $0.73 per share.

This buyback is the fourth one the Company has carried out after getting approval from shareholders and the board in July 2025 for a share buyback of up to 20% of the Company’s issued ordinary shares. In the past six months, the Company has now repurchased 4.3 million shares, which represent 30% of the permitted shares to be repurchased according to the approved share buyback mandate. The repurchased shares have been returned to the Company’s treasury.

When executing the buyback, the Company and its broker adhered to the guidelines in Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), to ensure compliance and a non-exclusive safe harbor regarding the repurchase of its shares.

The Company may choose to conduct further buybacks within the scope of its approved mandate, while also balancing the prudent and accretive use of its approved funding facilities. It will do so in a manner, proportion, and at a timing that it considers most suitable to preserve shareholder value based on economic and market dynamics, along with the Company’s share price relative to its current and anticipated enterprise value and net asset value.

In addition, the Company has also been informed by its transfer agent, Vstock Transfer (“Vstock”), that following the Company’s announcement of a $0.10 per share Bitcoin Loyalty Payment program for investors who transfer their shares from their broker accounts to book entry at Vstock by the record date of November 30, 2025, as of the record date, the number of shares that investors have transferred via the Direct Registration System (DRS) into book entry form is 2.3 million shares.

These 2.3 million shares are eligible for the $0.10 per share bonus, provided they remain in book entry form for six months until May 28, 2026. (This total excludes insider shares held at Vstock, which are not eligible for the Loyalty Payment program). The Company and its board express gratitude to the Company’s shareholders who participated in this program and continue to encourage long-term investors to use the DRS to transfer their shares to restricted book entry form to prevent their shares from being lent to short sellers without their knowledge.
