AIR Global发布9月投资者演示材料,披露H1业绩韧性及FY26温和增长展望
本次SEC 6-K披露的是投资者演示材料,包含的主要业务、Greentank投资和新产品叙事多为既有信息,新增H1经营和FY26展望偏温和且正负混合,未形成方向明确、量级足够且可执行的短线edge。

不做 AIR Global PLC(AIIR.US)
本次6-K主要是投资者演示材料,核心增量不足;H1数据和FY26展望正负混合,Greentank/Crown Switch叙事已提前披露,短线无明确可执行edge。

研究档案
结论摘要
AIR Global的9月演示材料显示核心FSM业务仍有收入增长和高调整后EBITDA率,但H1报告利润转亏、销量受中东物流扰动影响,FY26收入和调整后EBITDA指引仅为温和增长;Greentank投资及Crown Switch低HPHC试验结论此前已由公司在7月29日公开披露。本事件更像上市后投资者沟通材料而非新订单、获批、上调指引或交易完成催化,因此不做新仓。
消息传播链
- 公司已提前披露Greentank 2000万美元投资、认股权证、董事提名权和Crown Switch试验结果,削弱本次演示材料的新鲜度。
- AIR Global提交6-K并附2026年9月投资者演示材料,披露H1 2026业绩、FY26展望和业务介绍。
关键理由
- H1 2026收入2.069亿美元同比增长3.7%、调整后EBITDA 7170万美元基本持平,证明核心业务有韧性但不是强预期差。
- FY26收入增长4%-6%、调整后EBITDA低至中个位数增长,相对FY25约4.00亿美元收入和1.39亿美元调整后EBITDA仅是温和斜率。
- Greentank 2000万美元投资和Crown Switch试验数据已在7月29日公司新闻稿中披露,本次演示材料的新增交易价值有限。
主要风险
- 净亏损8180万美元、营业亏损6360万美元虽主要受上市相关费用和股权激励影响,但会削弱只看调整后指标的质量。
- PMTA仍取决于FDA接受和后续监管结果,新增长品类尚未证明能贡献可量化收入。
反向证据

H1收入增长和调整后EBITDA稳定的同时,报告净亏损8180万美元、营业亏损6360万美元,且NGC贡献仍取决于FDA接受PMTA申请。

先例如何影响了这次决策
对本次决策的影响:先例不足未改变结论;最终回避主要由事件增量不足和正负混合决定。
方向:未使用外部先例定方向;本次因缺少明确新增催化而回避,先例不会改变做不做结论。
涨幅量级:无高相似、同市场、同相位的可用先例用于校准幅度。
形态:上市后投资者演示材料通常需看新增指引或重大经营变化,本案未见足够硬增量。

Presentation, and no responsibility or liability whatsoever is accepted for the accuracy or sufficiency thereof or for any errors, omissions or misstatements, negligent or otherwise, relating thereto. The information contained in this Presentation
is derived from various internal and external sources, is preliminary in nature and is subject to change, and any such changes may be material. Industry and Market Data In this Presentation, AIR relies on and refers to certain information and
statistics based on AIR management’s estimates and/or obtained from third-party sources which it believes to be reliable. AIR has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of any such third-party information. Forward-Looking
Statements This Presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. AIR’s actual results may
differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect”, “estimate”, “project”,
“budget”, “forecast”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “believes”, “predicts”,
“potential”, “continue”, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding AIR’s intentions, beliefs or
current expectations concerning, among other things, product introduction, partnerships and collaborations, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth and strategies. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ
materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside the control of AIR and are difficult to predict. You should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. AIR undertakes or
accepts no obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. Trademarks This
Presentation may contain trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of other companies, which are the property of their respective owners and does not imply an affiliation with, or endorsement by, the owners of these trademarks, service
marks, trade names and copyrights. Solely for convenience, some of the trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights referred to in this Presentation may be listed without the TM, SM © or © symbols, but AIR will assert, to the
fullest extent under applicable law, the rights of the applicable owners, if any, to these trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights. Use of
Non-IFRS
Financial Measures This Presentation includes
certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with the IFRS as promulgated by the International Standards Accounting Board and that may be different from
non-IFRS
financial measures used by
other companies, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Operating Cash Conversion. These
non-IFRS
measures, and other measures that are calculated using these
non-IFRS
measures, are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to profit for the
year, net cash generated from operating activities or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS. AIR believes that these
non-IFRS
measures of financial results provide useful supplemental
information to investors. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of these
non-IFRS
measures and their nearest IFRS equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate
non-IFRS
measures differently or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore AIR’s
non-IFRS
measures may not be directly comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. Figures of
non-IFRS
measures presented in this Presentation are unaudited and unreviewed by AIR’s independent auditors and could be subject to change.

H1’2026 : Resilient Performance Amidst Unprecedented Disruption Revenue grew 3.7% and Adjusted EBITDA of
$71.7m, flat yoy, despite Strait of Hormuz Disruption. Strong Price/Mix growth of 14.0% offset inflation and supply chain pressures. Flavored Shisha Molasses (FSM) volumes declined 9.0%, primarily due to shipment disruption and trade inventory
impacts.
End-consumer
demand remained stable throughout the period, with volume growth returning in June 2026. As channel inventories normalize, growth is expected to accelerate in H2’26. Source: Company

~1.5% headwind from weaker Global Travel Retail (GTR) volumes and above-normal pricing. Revenue growth of

Low-to
mid-single-digit
Adjusted EBITDA growth, reflecting:Incremental public company costs post Nasdaq listing. Factory footprint reorganization to reduce reliance on the Strait of Hormuz. Elevated logistics and raw
material costs due to the Middle East conflict, despite alternative supply routes. Partially offset by tariff and excise duty benefits. Excluding these headwinds, Adjusted EBITDA growth would align with AIR’s historical high-single-digit
trend. 5 Source: Company Information FY’26 Full Year Outlook
Medium Term Outlook

by market share gains and expansion into new markets.
Mid-single-digit
FSM revenue growth (in USD). High-single-digit FSM Adjusted EBITDA growth (in USD). New Growth Categories (NGC) contributions will depend
on FDA acceptance of the Company’s PMTA applications. Continued deleveraging, with a consistent reduction in Net

cigarettes People consume shisha at the same frequency as cigarettes Shisha’s consumption involves combustion of tobacco 01 02 03 04 Tobacco content in shisha is relatively low compared to conventional cigarettes (~15% by volume in shisha vs
70-90%

Glossary & Appendix
Glossary 51 AIR defines EBITDA as earnings for the period before interest, taxation, depreciation and
amortization. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is profit/ (loss) for the period. EBITDA is an intermediate step in AIR’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as set out in the appendix. AIR defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, further adjusted to exclude items such as
non-recurring
expenses, share-based compensation and other
non-operating
expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure specifically defined under IFRS. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is profit/(loss) for the period. A reconciliation of profit/(loss) for the period to Adjusted EBITDA is set out in appendix. AIR
defines Net Debt as total borrowings (comprising current and
non-current
interest-bearing loans and borrowings) less cash and cash equivalents, each as reported on AIR’s IFRS statement of financial
position. AIR defines the ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (“leverage”) as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Neither Net Debt nor the Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is presented in accordance with IFRS; the most directly
comparable IFRS measures are total borrowings and cash and cash equivalents, each as reported on AIR’s statement of financial position. AIR believes this ratio is a useful measure of AIR’s capital structure and progress toward its target
leverage. A reconciliation of profit/(loss) for the period to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and total borrowings to Net Debt is set forth in the Appendix. Adjusted EBITDA Margin. AIR defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is not a measure defined under IFRS. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is profit/(loss) for the period divided by revenue. AIR believes Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful in evaluating AIR’s operating profitability
across periods. Net Operating Cash Conversion. AIR defines Net Operating Cash Conversion as net cash generated from operating activities divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Net Operating Cash Conversion is not a measure defined under IFRS. The most directly
comparable IFRS measure is net cash generated from operating activities divided by profit/(loss) for the period. AIR believes Net Operating Cash Conversion is useful in evaluating the extent to which Adjusted EBITDA is converted into operating cash
flow.

Appendix A: H1’26 Reconciliation of operating (loss) / profit to adjusted EBITDA 53 (i) During the six
months ended June 30, 2026, the Group recognized $12,439 thousand in share-based compensation expense, primarily in relation to the Milestone Incentive Plan and Retention Awards, both equity-settled arrangements established for senior
management in connection with a listing event. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, share-based compensation expense increased relative to the prior comparable period, reflecting the impact of beneficial modifications to the terms of certain
participant awards made during the second half of 2025. Although these arrangements are
one-time
programs linked to the completion of an exit event and will not recur in future periods, the related charges
will continue to be recognized over the remaining vesting period in accordance with IFRS 2 “Share-based Payments.” (ii) During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Group incurred
non-recurring
costs of $7,365 thousand directly related to public company readiness activities. These expenditures were incurred to assess and implement the Group’s requirements as a publicly listed
company, alongside other professional fees including, but not limited to legal, tax, and accounting. These costs would not otherwise have been incurred in the normal course of operations. (iii) During the six months ended June 30, 2026,
regional disruption rendered certain normal supply and logistics routes temporarily unavailable. As a result, the Group was required to enter into contracts for
air-freighting
materials and finished goods to
maintain continuity of operations, a measure not employed in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Group was unable to procure a key ingredient – glycerin—from contracted supply sources and was required to secure continuity
of supply through a short-term contract at prices significantly above normal market conditions. Management has adjusted for the incremental cost of these ingredients, as it does not consider them reflective of the Group’s normalized cost base.
Incremental costs in respect of
re-routing
of land and
sea-based
shipments, and other inflationary and situational increases, have not been adjusted and are considered
operational and within the control of management. (iv) During the
six-month
period ended 30 June 2026, the Group incurred regulatory costs of $1,980 comprising consulting, advisory, and research fees
to support the preparation and submission of a U.S. Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA) for one of its devices. Management considers PMTA applications to be infrequent and
non-recurring
in nature,
with associated costs that are significant relative to the Group’s normal operating activities. Accordingly, these costs have been adjusted in management’s assessment of underlying performance. (v) During the
six-month
period ended 30 June 2026, in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, on 15 May 2026, the Group issued 4,408,369 shares (including 1,500,000 subject to earnout
performance conditions) for an average fair value of $11.45 per share amounting to $50,490 in total share premium. While $2,340 of this share premium was received in cash (in consideration for 226,360 shares issued by the Group), $48,150 of issuance
cost is taken as a charge to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income in accordance with IFRS 2 “Share based payments”.
Appendix B: H1’26 Net Debt Reconciliation 54 Reconciliation of total borrowings (current and
non-current
interest-bearing loans and borrowings) to Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (1)Represents total borrowings (including “current and
non-current
borrowings” as
shown in the consolidated statement of financial position) less cash and cash equivalents. (2)Net Debt is defined as total borrowings (comprising current and
non-current
interest-bearing loans and borrowings)
less cash and cash equivalents. (3) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude items such as
non-recurring
expenses,
share-based compensation and other
non-operational
items. (4) Net Debt/ Adjusted EBITDA represents Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-IFRS
leverage ratio and differs from the gearing ratio (net debt divided by total capital) presented in AIR’s historical financial statements. (1) (3) (4)

is derived from various internal and external sources, is preliminary in nature and is subject to change, and any such changes may be material. Industry and Market Data In this Presentation, AIR relies on and refers to certain information and
statistics based on AIR management’s estimates and/or obtained from third-party sources which it believes to be reliable. AIR has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of any such third-party information. Forward-Looking
Statements This Presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. AIR’s actual results may
differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect”, “estimate”, “project”,
“budget”, “forecast”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “believes”, “predicts”,
“potential”, “continue”, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding AIR’s intentions, beliefs or
current expectations concerning, among other things, product introduction, partnerships and collaborations, results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth and strategies. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ
materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside the control of AIR and are difficult to predict. You should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. AIR undertakes or
accepts no obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. Trademarks This
Presentation may contain trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights of other companies, which are the property of their respective owners and does not imply an affiliation with, or endorsement by, the owners of these trademarks, service
marks, trade names and copyrights. Solely for convenience, some of the trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights referred to in this Presentation may be listed without the TM, SM © or © symbols, but AIR will assert, to the
fullest extent under applicable law, the rights of the applicable owners, if any, to these trademarks, service marks, trade names and copyrights. Use of
Non-IFRS
Financial Measures This Presentation includes
certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with the IFRS as promulgated by the International Standards Accounting Board and that may be different from
non-IFRS
financial measures used by
other companies, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Net Operating Cash Conversion. These
non-IFRS
measures, and other measures that are calculated using these
non-IFRS
measures, are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to profit for the
year, net cash generated from operating activities or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS. AIR believes that these
non-IFRS
measures of financial results provide useful supplemental
information to investors. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of these
non-IFRS
measures and their nearest IFRS equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate
non-IFRS
measures differently or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore AIR’s
non-IFRS
measures may not be directly comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies. Figures of
non-IFRS
measures presented in this Presentation are unaudited and unreviewed by AIR’s independent auditors and could be subject to change.

H1’2026 : Resilient Performance Amidst Unprecedented Disruption Revenue grew 3.7% and Adjusted EBITDA of
$71.7m, flat yoy, despite Strait of Hormuz Disruption. Strong Price/Mix growth of 14.0% offset inflation and supply chain pressures. Flavored Shisha Molasses (FSM) volumes declined 9.0%, primarily due to shipment disruption and trade inventory
impacts.
End-consumer
demand remained stable throughout the period, with volume growth returning in June 2026. As channel inventories normalize, growth is expected to accelerate in H2’26. Source: Company

Adjusted EBITDA growth, reflecting:Incremental public company costs post Nasdaq listing. Factory footprint reorganization to reduce reliance on the Strait of Hormuz. Elevated logistics and raw
material costs due to the Middle East conflict, despite alternative supply routes. Partially offset by tariff and excise duty benefits. Excluding these headwinds, Adjusted EBITDA growth would align with AIR’s historical high-single-digit
trend. 5 Source: Company Information FY’26 Full Year Outlook

Glossary & Appendix
Glossary 51 AIR defines EBITDA as earnings for the period before interest, taxation, depreciation and
amortization. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is profit/ (loss) for the period. EBITDA is an intermediate step in AIR’s calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, as set out in the appendix. AIR defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before
interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, further adjusted to exclude items such as
non-recurring
expenses, share-based compensation and other
non-operating
expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure specifically defined under IFRS. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is profit/(loss) for the period. A reconciliation of profit/(loss) for the period to Adjusted EBITDA is set out in appendix. AIR
defines Net Debt as total borrowings (comprising current and
non-current
interest-bearing loans and borrowings) less cash and cash equivalents, each as reported on AIR’s IFRS statement of financial
position. AIR defines the ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (“leverage”) as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Neither Net Debt nor the Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is presented in accordance with IFRS; the most directly
comparable IFRS measures are total borrowings and cash and cash equivalents, each as reported on AIR’s statement of financial position. AIR believes this ratio is a useful measure of AIR’s capital structure and progress toward its target
leverage. A reconciliation of profit/(loss) for the period to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and total borrowings to Net Debt is set forth in the Appendix. Adjusted EBITDA Margin. AIR defines Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.
Adjusted EBITDA Margin is not a measure defined under IFRS. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is profit/(loss) for the period divided by revenue. AIR believes Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful in evaluating AIR’s operating profitability
across periods. Net Operating Cash Conversion. AIR defines Net Operating Cash Conversion as net cash generated from operating activities divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Net Operating Cash Conversion is not a measure defined under IFRS. The most directly
comparable IFRS measure is net cash generated from operating activities divided by profit/(loss) for the period. AIR believes Net Operating Cash Conversion is useful in evaluating the extent to which Adjusted EBITDA is converted into operating cash
flow.

months ended June 30, 2026, the Group recognized $12,439 thousand in share-based compensation expense, primarily in relation to the Milestone Incentive Plan and Retention Awards, both equity-settled arrangements established for senior
management in connection with a listing event. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, share-based compensation expense increased relative to the prior comparable period, reflecting the impact of beneficial modifications to the terms of certain
participant awards made during the second half of 2025. Although these arrangements are
one-time
programs linked to the completion of an exit event and will not recur in future periods, the related charges
will continue to be recognized over the remaining vesting period in accordance with IFRS 2 “Share-based Payments.” (ii) During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Group incurred
non-recurring
costs of $7,365 thousand directly related to public company readiness activities. These expenditures were incurred to assess and implement the Group’s requirements as a publicly listed
company, alongside other professional fees including, but not limited to legal, tax, and accounting. These costs would not otherwise have been incurred in the normal course of operations. (iii) During the six months ended June 30, 2026,
regional disruption rendered certain normal supply and logistics routes temporarily unavailable. As a result, the Group was required to enter into contracts for
air-freighting
materials and finished goods to
maintain continuity of operations, a measure not employed in the ordinary course of business. In addition, the Group was unable to procure a key ingredient – glycerin—from contracted supply sources and was required to secure continuity
of supply through a short-term contract at prices significantly above normal market conditions. Management has adjusted for the incremental cost of these ingredients, as it does not consider them reflective of the Group’s normalized cost base.
Incremental costs in respect of
re-routing
of land and
sea-based
shipments, and other inflationary and situational increases, have not been adjusted and are considered
operational and within the control of management. (iv) During the
six-month
period ended 30 June 2026, the Group incurred regulatory costs of $1,980 comprising consulting, advisory, and research fees
to support the preparation and submission of a U.S. Premarket Tobacco Product Application (PMTA) for one of its devices. Management considers PMTA applications to be infrequent and
non-recurring
in nature,
with associated costs that are significant relative to the Group’s normal operating activities. Accordingly, these costs have been adjusted in management’s assessment of underlying performance. (v) During the
six-month
period ended 30 June 2026, in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, on 15 May 2026, the Group issued 4,408,369 shares (including 1,500,000 subject to earnout
performance conditions) for an average fair value of $11.45 per share amounting to $50,490 in total share premium. While $2,340 of this share premium was received in cash (in consideration for 226,360 shares issued by the Group), $48,150 of issuance
cost is taken as a charge to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income in accordance with IFRS 2 “Share based payments”.
Appendix B: H1’26 Net Debt Reconciliation 54 Reconciliation of total borrowings (current and
non-current
interest-bearing loans and borrowings) to Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (1)Represents total borrowings (including “current and
non-current
borrowings” as
shown in the consolidated statement of financial position) less cash and cash equivalents. (2)Net Debt is defined as total borrowings (comprising current and
non-current
interest-bearing loans and borrowings)
less cash and cash equivalents. (3) Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to exclude items such as
non-recurring
expenses,
share-based compensation and other
non-operational
items. (4) Net Debt/ Adjusted EBITDA represents Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA is a
non-IFRS
leverage ratio and differs from the gearing ratio (net debt divided by total capital) presented in AIR’s historical financial statements. (1) (3) (4)
