New
York, NY – SEPTEMBER 29, 2026 – Mixed Martial Arts Group Limited (NYSE American: MMA) (“MMA” or the
“Company”), doing business as MMA.INC, today announced more than US$800,000 in additional annualized cash operating cost
reductions, increasing total annualized cash operating cost reductions to over US$2.51 million.
The
new reductions were implemented between July 1 and September 28, 2026 and represent a 47.2% increase from approximately US$1.71
million of annualized cash operating cost reductions reported as of June 30, 2026.
The
additional savings comprise approximately:
| ● | US$445,000
in staff costs; |
| ● | US$181,000
in associated taxes and benefits; |
| ● | US$116,000
in premises costs; and |
| ● | US$64,000
in technology subscriptions and cloud storage. |
Each
announced reduction arises from a completed action and represents recurring cash expenditure that management believes is no longer required
by the business.
Technology
and AI Support Operating Leverage
MMA.INC’s
technology delivery program and expanded use of AI supported workflows are enabling the Company to simplify processes, automate manual
activity, consolidate infrastructure and support a leaner operating structure.
These
actions delivered over US$625,000 in additional workforce related annualized cash cost reductions and over US$180,000 in technology and
operating infrastructure annualized cash cost reductions during the period.
The
Company believes its technology investment is strengthening MMA.INC’s product platform while reducing the recurring cash cost required
to operate the business.
Nick
Langton, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of MMA.INC, said:
“Since
June 30, we have increased MMA.INC’s annualized cash operating cost reductions from approximately US$1.71 million to approximately
US$2.51 million. That 47.2% increase reflects the pace and discipline with which we are reshaping the business.
“Technology
delivery, automation and AI supported workflows are translating directly into lower recurring cash costs. We are simplifying how MMA.INC
operates, removing expenditure the business no longer requires and building a more scalable operating model.
“These
are completed actions, not future targets. We have now removed over US$2.51 million of annualized recurring cash expenditure from the
business, strengthening operating leverage, extending runway and supporting our path toward profitability.”
MMA.INC
intends to continue pursuing disciplined efficiencies while protecting its core revenue-generating capabilities and strategic priorities.
Positive adjusted EBITDA is an operating objective, not a forecast, and the Company is not providing a quantitative target or fixed timetable.
Basis
of Annualized Cash Operating Cost Reduction Measure
The
annualized cash operating cost reduction of approximately US$2.51 million represents management’s estimate, as of September 28,
2026, of recurring annual cash expenditure eliminated through actions completed between January 1, 2025 and September 28, 2026. The figure
is intended to describe annualized recurring cash cost reductions from completed actions and should not be read as a forecast of future
profitability, cash flow or financial performance.
The
measure was calculated by annualizing each identified cash cost at the rate applying immediately before its elimination. It includes
payroll, taxes and benefits, premises, hosting, insurance, technology subscriptions, cloud storage and costs eliminated through the deprecation
of selected Hype functionality.
The
measure excludes share-based payments, depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses.

similar expressions. Forward-looking statements in this release include, without limitation, statements regarding the expected amount,
timing and durability of the Company’s annualized cash operating cost reductions; the Company’s ability to maintain a lower

without compromising its revenue-generating capabilities, product delivery or strategic priorities. These forward-looking statements
are based on management’s current expectations, estimates, assumptions and information available as of the date of this release.
Actual results could differ materially due to risks and uncertainties including, among others: the risk that estimated or annualized
savings are not realized, maintained or reflected in future operating results at the amounts or within the periods anticipated; the possibility
that savings are offset by restructuring or transition costs, wage or supplier inflation, replacement expenditure, additional hiring,
technology investment or other operating requirements; the accuracy and completeness of the data and assumptions used to calculate and
annualize the cost reductions; the risk that workforce reductions, organizational changes or infrastructure consolidation disrupt operations,
internal controls, product development, customer service or revenue growth; the Company’s ability to successfully implement and
maintain technology, automation and AI-supported processes; cybersecurity, data protection, privacy, reliability and other risks arising
from increased reliance on technology and AI; the Company’s ability to retain key personnel and maintain relationships with customers,
gyms, academies, partners and suppliers; the Company’s ability to grow revenue, improve margins and manage its liquidity and capital
requirements; general economic, market and regulatory conditions; and the Company’s ability to access additional capital when required.
Additional risks and uncertainties include those described under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual
Report on Form 20-F and in subsequent reports on Form 6-K filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The
annualized cost-reduction figures presented in this release are management estimates based on the recurring cash costs applying immediately
before the relevant costs were eliminated. They are not forecasts of future profitability, cash flow or financial performance. Cost reductions
