Pineapple Financial Issues Statement on False Claims Regarding Reverse Split

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 12, 2025) - Pineapple Financial (NYSE American: PAPL) categorically denies the misleading and false information presented in a tweet by Flash Alert, a Financial news source, regarding the company's stock structure. The claims about a 1-for-90 reverse split and the reduction of shares outstanding from 1M to 90M are entirely inaccurate. Pineapple Financial has not authorized any such reverse stock split nor the issuance of 450,000,000 free shares as stated in the tweet.

We are actively investigating this misinformation and will take necessary actions to protect our shareholders and our reputation.

Pineapple Financial remains committed to transparent and responsible communication with our investors and the public.
