About Black Rock Coffee Bar
Our Mission: To Fuel People Forward – One Connection, One Moment, One Cup at a Time We are a high-growth operator of guest-centric, drive-thru coffee bars offering premium caffeinated beverages and an elevated in-store experience crafted by our engaging baristas. Black Rock Coffee Bar was founded in 2008 in Beaverton, Oregon, by our co-founders Daniel Brand and Jeff Hernandez. What started as a single 160 square foot coffee bar in 2008 is now one of the fastest growing beverage companies in the United States by revenue and the largest fully company-owned coffee retailer in the country, with 158 locations spanning seven states as of June 30, 2025, from the Pacific Northwest to Texas. We were founded as a drive-thru only concept and evolved to include engaging seating areas, which we call “lobbies.” All of our locations include efficient drive-thrus and approximately 75% of our locations include lobbies as of June 30, 2025. We expect most of our new locations to include both drive-thrus and lobbies as we continue to grow. Our modern, inviting store formats-paired with a robust digital platform-allow us to deliver a dynamic and multi-faceted guest experience. Driven by a passion for Connection, Caffeine, and Community, Black Rock is a platform to do well by our baristas, guests, and the communities we serve. With a relentless focus on people and excellence, our culture has been key to our success. Connection We are a people first organization and we win with authentic connections. Our success is fueled by the personal connections between our store teams and our diverse range of guests that are cultivated while serving premium, caffeinated beverages with speed and consistency. These daily interactions, whether over a drink hand-off at a drive-thru window or a longer visit in one of our inviting lobbies, create “moments that matter” with our guests. Our exceptional guest satisfaction score, according to the September 2024 study, confirms our ability to consistently deliver on our brand promise while creating meaningful connections. We invest in making meaningful internal connections with our team members through a combination of extensive on-the-job training and career advancement opportunities. Black Rock offers more than a job-it is a platform for long-term development. Providing our team members with the tools and opportunities to advance fuels a more engaged, high-performing workforce. This commitment to professional growth leads to stronger guest relationships, excellent retention, and lasting brand loyalty. Caffeine Our approach to coffee and handcrafted beverages reflects the same attention to detail and care that we show every guest. Our team members are passionate about delivering high-quality, premium coffee and caffeinated beverages. That commitment starts with our exclusive use of premium beans that we roast in small batches in one of our two roasting facilities, promoting consistency, flavor integrity, and freshness. Coffee beans are delivered to our stores weekly and consumed within 14 days of roasting to maintain optimal taste and quality. We offer a broad range of premium coffee beverages, from our deliciously refreshing Nitro Cold Brew to our unapologetically indulgent Caramel Blondie. We also offer competitively priced, premium classics, including the Americano and customizable Lattes, providing a high perceived value offering to our guests. The breadth and flexibility of our menu supports long-term guest engagement, allowing individuals to evolve their drink choices over time without compromising on quality. This consistency strengthens brand trust and enhances overall guest experience. Our proprietary Iced and Frozen Fuel energy drinks further broaden our appeal, offering a customizable, flavor-forward option that resonates with a wide demographic. With a simplified menu and a wide variety of flavor combinations, Fuel provides an energizing and refreshing alternative that is suitable any time of day. Fuel showcases our ability to innovate while aligning with guest demand for bold, flexible options. Fuel has quickly grown into a popular product category, helping drive increased transaction volume and guest frequency. Community At Black Rock, we build genuine connections with our guests, support their daily lives, and foster a sense of community. These relationships-formed through shared moments and premium beverages-enable us to create a highly engaged guest base. Many of our guests refer to our stores as “my Black Rock,” reflecting a sense of ownership and belonging that is uncommon in our category. Our modern, purposefully designed stores serve as welcoming hubs where people come together. This environment is powered by our baristas, whose friendly, attentive service ensures guests feel recognized, welcomed and respected. Whether hosting a business meeting, a study group, a casual catch-up, or a first date, our locations offer a space where people connect and return regularly. As we expand into new and existing markets, our emphasis on building strong local ties remains central to our growth strategy. Our consistent, people-first approach helps ensure that each Black Rock location continues to function not just as a coffee bar, but as a trusted part of the communities we serve. Rapid Growth We have delivered strong performance by staying true to our core pillars: Connection, Caffeine, and Community. These values continue to guide our strategy and contribute to our ongoing momentum. As we scale our business, each new unit brings new, local baristas into the Black Rock family-deepening our connection with guests and fueling their daily routines. Our continued investment in people, infrastructure, and a distinctive guest experience supports sustained growth and operational excellence. These results demonstrate the strength and consistency of our model and highlight our genuine connection to our guests across diverse markets.

About Nomadar
We are the innovation arm of Cádiz CF, a professional soccer club which currently competes in the Segunda División. We currently have four proposed business verticals, which are in various stages of development. Through June 30, 2025, the Company had engaged in limited operations until 2025 when the Company began generating revenue from providing services under commercial contracts and purchase orders entered into in the ordinary course of business. On January 10, 2025, the Company entered into a framework agreement with Cádiz CF, whereby, among other things, Cádiz CF agreed to provide technical training staff for players enrolled in the Company’s programs, and the Company agreed to integrate the Company’s training methodologies into Cádiz CF’s training sessions (the “Framework Agreement”). The Framework Agreement provides that Nomadar will: (i) coordinate the registration and enrollment of international players; (ii) manage accommodation for the players, (iii) coordinate with Cádiz CF technical staff; (iv) provide training equipment, and merchandising; and (v) integrate Nomadar’s training methodologies into the Cádiz CF training sessions. It further provides that Cádiz CF will: (i) provide coaching staff; (ii) integrate these international players into Cádiz CF youth academy teams; and (iii) organize matches. Pursuant to the Framework Agreement, each party shall issue the corresponding invoices, indicating the relevant service and concept. The Company anticipates that all specific services to be provided by Cádiz CF to Nomadar shall be paid for by Nomadar according to each player’s use and participation in each program. The Framework Agreement is effective for three (3) years, renewable by written agreement; provided, however, that either party may terminate the Framework Agreement with 60 days’ prior written notice. The Company intends the services to be provided pursuant to terms and at costs that are no less favorable than those provided to or by independent third parties under the same circumstances. The Framework Agreement became effective at execution on January 10, 2025. All specific services provided under the Framework Agreement and the related payments for such services will be set forth in subsequent annexes to the Framework Agreement, negotiated and agreed upon in due course between the Company and Cádiz CF, and will be disclosed at such times. In addition to training-related services, the Company also began generating event-related revenue in 2025 pursuant to agreements entered into under the Stadium Agreement with Cádiz CF. These contracts include a non-refundable up-front fee due at the closing of the contract as well as variable consideration in the form of a percentage of ticket sales earned by the event coordinator. On January 12, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with ENJOYFOOTBALL, S.L., a Spanish limited liability company and youth soccer coaching organization (“EJB”), whereby EJB agreed to enroll players into the Company’s training programs and the Company agreed to provide training and related services to these players. Other than the entry into these commercial agreements, substantially all activity for the period from August 8, 2023 (inception) through June 30, 2025 relates to the Company’s formation and the proposed direct listing, transactions entered into to consummate the direct listing, as well as the Company’s efforts to execute the Company’s various license and fundraising agreements further described herein. Multi-Purpose Event Center Sportech and the Company intend to enter into a five-year lease agreement with a purchase option pursuant to which Sportech will lease to the Company the land on which we intend to construct the space we refer to as Sportech City (“Sportech City”), in Cádiz, Spain. Once complete, the facility is planned to span over approximately 110,000 m², and feature a venue, which can host concerts and sporting events, with seating for over 40,000 fans, a world-class hotel and convention center with commercial area, a sports clinic, gym & spa, and food court. Adjacent to the event center, the proposed creation of an approximately 20,000 m2 commercial space will mirror a forward-thinking approach to crafting a modern, open, and bright commercial environment. Another cornerstone of Sportech City will be a dedicated culinary area, proposed to span approximately 3,000 m². Site plans currently include space for up to 56 commercial vendors and 17 food and beverage vendors. Commercial spaces will focus primarily on luxury retail, sporting stores, and more. Food and beverage offerings are expected to feature local establishments ranging from fast casual to gourmet options. Although these are our current plans, site plans are subject to change. The Cádiz region in Spain has strong connectivity to Cádiz CF, which was established in 1910. We believe Cádiz will be the ideal location at the intersection of innovation, sports, entertainment, health, tourism and technology as Nomadar not only contributes to the development of future stars but also builds a loyal community of athletes and families. Locally, Cádiz CF has a loyal fan base, with the majority of Cádiz’s soccer fans being supporters of Cádiz CF. This is reflected by more than 18,000 season ticket holders. Additionally, through its association with figures like Mágico González and its commitment to celebrating cultural heritage, Nomadar taps into deep-seated fan loyalties and cultural narratives. This not only strengthens its brand identity but also fosters a strong emotional connection with its audience in the region. Sportech City will be within two hours of two international airports, Málaga and Sevilla, which will also allow easy access for fans located internationally. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2026 and we anticipate construction will be completed by or around 2030. As of the date hereof, the Company does not have the required funding to develop Sportech City, and the lease agreement will not be entered into or effective prior to the listing of our common stock. High Performance Training Program Since 2022, Cádiz CF has offered an educational program in partnership with and through institutions across the United States, Canada, and Europe. This program, which we refer to as the High Performance Training Program (the “Nomadar HPT”), is designed for young athletes both under and over 18 years of age, to study, live, and immerse themselves in an elite soccer program. In August 2024, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with Cádiz CF, granting Nomadar the exclusive rights to the business, know-how, and general operations (the “HPT Rights”) of the High Performance Training Program (the “HPT License Agreement”). We intend to leverage the Nomadar HPT by offering the Nomadar HPT training methodology through our partner organizations to online subscribers. Online subscribers may gain access to a full suite of professional-level training and diet regimens, among other benefits. Since the commencement of the High Performance Training Program in 2022, approximately 700 athletes have historically enrolled in the High Performance Training Program at the Cádiz CF Academy, with 100% attending in-person. Graduates of the program have gone on to play at a variety of reputable clubs across La Liga, including Sevilla Atl, Racing de Santander, Villarreal CF, Mallorca FC, UD Las Palmas, and Valladolid FC. Organizations Nomadar has agreed to partner with to deliver the Nomadar HPT include International Soccer Academy, Actingwood, Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola in Lima and San Ignacio University in Miami. We intend to expand the reach of the Nomadar HPT to encompass territories outside of Spain and around the world. The HPT Rights were licensed to Nomadar in August 2024. The Company commenced operations of the Nomadar HPT in the second half of 2024. Until the Company commenced operations of the Nomadar HPT, no athletes were considered enrolled under the Nomadar HPT and all athletes enrolled were considered enrolled with Cádiz CF. During the fourth quarter of 2024, Cádiz CF assigned its contractual position in one of the HPT agreements to the Company, and, as a result, the Company began training five players from Japan’s Wakatake Academy. These players spent an entire quarter in Cádiz, Spain, where they lived and trained under the full supervision of Company. The Company handled all aspects of the stay, including physical preparation, extracurricular activities, logistics, and coordination with both Wakatake Academy and Cádiz CF, and the planning and management of daily schedules. In 2025, the Nomadar HPT program has expanded to include new clients, all participating in person. No remote or online training sessions have been conducted. The training facilities remain based in Cádiz, Spain. As of the date hereof, approximately 20 players are enrolled in the long-term training modality, with an additional ten players having participated in short-term programs. Revenues generated through the Nomadar HPT are derived from the individual players participating in the program. Each athlete pays a fee to the Company based on the length of time said athlete will live, study, and train at one of the Company’s partner locations – generally for one to ten months, during which time they have access to the Nomadar HPT. Stadium Events On October 30, 2024, the Company and Cádiz CF entered into an agreement (the “Stadium Agreement”), pursuant to which Cádiz CF granted to Nomadar a temporary, non-exclusive right to use the Nuevo Mirandilla Stadium (“Mirandilla Stadium”). The Company is in the process of engaging third-party event coordinators to host events at Mirandilla Stadium. Under these contracts, the Company will be responsible for the assignment of space within Mirandilla Stadium to the event coordinators, the facilitation of access necessary for event setup, execution, and dismantling, the provision of lighting, sound, access control, hostess services, and the stage for the event, and the compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements needed for the execution of the event. The Company anticipates that these contracts will typically include a non-refundable up-front fee due at the closing of the contract as well as variable consideration in the form of a percentage of ticket sales earned by the event coordinator. Pursuant to the Stadium Agreement, the Company has agreed to assume in full all those expenses incurred by Cádiz CF that are necessary and duly justified to guarantee the correct exploitation of Mirandilla Stadium. This obligation includes, but is not limited to, all costs associated with technical, logistical, maintenance, cleaning, supplies, security, personnel, insurance, licenses and any other service or action essential to ensure the correct provision of the service and the proper development of the contracted activity. Additionally, any expense derived from legal, technical or administrative requirements that Cádiz CF must face due to the activity that is the subject of the Stadium Agreement will also be fully reimbursed by the Company, upon presentation of the appropriate supporting documents, including any costs of a fiscal or tax nature (including direct or indirect taxes that may eventually be claimed from the club) that Cádiz CF may incur in the future because of the execution the Stadium Agreement. The Stadium Agreement has a term of ten (10) years, and may be extended for additional periods. There are no fixed minimum recurring payments due by Nomadar to Cádiz CF under the Stadium Agreement. In 2025, the Company began receiving revenue under the Stadium Agreement, in connection with purchase orders between the Company and Cádiz CF. Other than as set forth above, the specific services to be performed by each party and the costs for such services have not been established and will be determined in the future, based upon the specific services to be provided. Mágico González Brand Pursuant to an agreement between Jorge Alberto González (otherwise known as Mágico González) and Cádiz CF, dated September 12, 2022, Mr. González granted all trademark rights to “Mágico González” to Cádiz CF. The agreement provides that Cádiz CF shall retain ownership of the “Mágico González” trademarks registered in favor of Cádiz CF for so long as the registration remains in effect or is renewed. The Mágico González trademark is registered with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) under registration number 018791443. The registration application is in process with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) for the territory of the United States. In August 2024, we entered into an exclusive license agreement (the “MG License Agreement”) with Cádiz CF, granting Nomadar the exclusive rights, outside of Spain, to commercialize the Mágico González brand (the “MG Rights”). Mágico González is a worldwide soccer star known by soccer fans around the world. Mágico played for Cádiz CF for many years before returning to Latin America. The Company intends to launch the Mágico González brand in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of 2025, with e-commerce offerings beginning at such time. Soccer Academies Although we have not entered into any agreement to date, and we do not currently operate any soccer academies, weintend to enter into agreements, including but not limited to acquisition and assignment agreements, whereby we will operate soccer academies in the United States and Europe. The Nomadar HPT would be offered as a part of service provided by these academies to all academy participants. Relationship Between the Company, Sportech, and Cádiz CF Upon completion of this Direct Listing, Sportech will beneficially own approximately 90.05% (and together with Cádiz CF approximately 91.23%) of the voting power of our outstanding voting securities and we will be a “controlled company” within the meaning of the listing rules of Nasdaq. We do not intend to rely on any exemptions from the corporate governance requirements that are available to controlled companies. As described here and elsewhere in this prospectus, the Company, Cádiz CF and Sportech will maintain various business relationships following the Direct Listing. For example: .

On November 1, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Sportech, which was subsequently amended on June 12, 2025, pursuant to which Sportech has agreed to provide up to $10 million to fund the business and operations of the Company in 2025, 2026, and 2027. . On October 30, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Cadiz CF, which granted the Company rights to use Mirandilla Stadium, for the organization of events. .
