"We continue to remain very confident in our growth strategy as an 'everything mushroom company' as our Q1 2024 financial statements demonstrate, while remaining focused on emerging markets regarding psilocybin as our finger is most definitely on the psychedelic pulse," said Todd Shapiro, Red Light Holland CEO and Director. "We also acknowledge some commencement dates have been pushed back due us perfecting our planning and outlooks. However, we are proud of our team's focus and hard work, as Red Light is clearly a well-rounded and cautious company as it relates to careful spending and patient growth. As always, we are very transparent and available to any and all of our loyal shareholders; including questions surrounding our brands and launches, the 65,000 square feet farm build in Peterborough, Ontario, any potential M&A activity and our psilocybin microdosing capsules developed and tested by partner CCrest Laboratories aimed for distribution with NUBU Pharmaceuticals in Australasia, where we truly expect to have updates in the very, and I mean the 'very near future!'"

With regards to the strength of the current financial position, David Ascott, Red Light Holland Chief Financial Officer, added "Our financial position and liquidity remains strong, and the Company currently has sufficient capital to fund its ongoing business development and future growth and expansion plans for the foreseeable future. The total assets as at March 31, 2023 is $29.2 million including $17.5 million of cash and cash equivalents. We have also been putting our excess cash to good use through government issued GICs, taking advantage of the current market interest rates to increase our return on investment related to these funds."

The unaudited financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended June 30, 2023 are now available on SEDAR+.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FUTURE ORIENTED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This press release may contain future oriented financial information ("FOFI") within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation, about prospective results of operations, financial position or cash flows, based on assumptions about future economic conditions and courses of action, which FOFI is not presented in the format of a historical balance sheet, income statement or cash flow statement. The FOFI has been prepared by management to provide an outlook of the Company's activities and results and has been prepared based on a number of assumptions including the assumptions discussed under the heading above entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Future Oriented Financial Information" and assumptions with respect to the costs and expenditures to be incurred by the Company, capital expenditures and operating costs, taxation rates for the Company and general and administrative expenses. Management does not have, or may not have had at the relevant date, firm commitments for all of the costs, expenditures, prices or other financial assumptions which may have been used to prepare the FOFI or assurance that such operating results will be achieved and, accordingly, the complete financial effects of all of those costs, expenditures, prices and operating results are not, or may not have been at the relevant date of the FOFI, objectively determinable.

Importantly, the FOFI contained in this press release and the documents incorporated by reference herein, are, or may be, based upon certain additional assumptions that management believes to be reasonable based on the information currently available to management, including, but not limited to, assumptions about: (i) the future pricing for the Company's products, (ii) the future market demand and trends within the jurisdictions in which the Company may from time to time conduct the Company's business, and (iii) the Company continued ability to maintain its capital to fund its ongoing business development and future growth.

The FOFI or financial outlook contained in this in this press release do not purport to present the Company's financial condition in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing the FOFI will prove accurate. The actual results of operations of the Company and the resulting financial results will likely vary from the amounts set forth in the analysis presented in any such document, and such variation may be material (including due to the occurrence of unforeseen events occurring subsequent to the preparation of the FOFI). The Company and management believe that the FOFI has been prepared on a reasonable basis, reflecting management's best estimates and judgments as at the applicable date. However, because this information is highly subjective and subject to numerous risks including the risks discussed under the heading above entitled "Cautionary Note Regarding Future Oriented Financial Information", FOFI or financial outlook within this in this press release should not be relied on as necessarily indicative of future results.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the FOFI, or financial outlook contained in this in this press release. Except as required by Canadian securities laws, the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update such FOFI.
