Outlook

Plurilock reiterates its 2025 growth strategy focused on higher margin offerings, led by Critical Services, and maintaining a strong liquidity profile. The Company continues to build a healthy pipeline across enterprise, defense, and public sector markets, with line of sight to second-half activity benefiting from seasonal budget flows and ongoing strategic initiatives. These opportunities are driven by trusted client relationships, partner pull-through, and targeted business development aimed at securing multi-year, recurring contracts.

Internationally, Plurilock is advancing into NATO, Middle East, and other non-U.S. defense markets, leveraging its track record with Canadian and U.S. federal clients to enter NATO-aligned markets and pursue joint defense bids with major integrators. Recent meetings with senior public sector cybersecurity leaders and procurement officials in Ottawa and Brussels reinforced Plurilock's credibility and positioning to benefit from unprecedented levels of allied government cyber and defense spending. These initiatives align with the Company's proven approach, starting with smaller, high-trust Critical Services engagements and expanding into multi-year, enterprise-scale contracts.

The Company's balance sheet remains stable, with cash on hand and unused credit capacity providing sufficient liquidity. The Company has also made improvements in how working capital is managed, shortening payment terms with key customers, pulling forward cash, and tightening contractor payments. At the same time, the Company is more selective on which federal sales opportunities we pursue, reallocating resources to higher-margin Critical Services and commercial opportunities. Combined with changes in revenue recognition and a more selective, strategic bidding approach, these shifts are smoothing revenue and supporting healthier margins over time.

Plurilock's CEO Ian L. Paterson and CFO Scott Meyers will host a live webinar on Wednesday, August 20, 2025, at 11am ET to review the results, provide Company updates and answer investor questions following the presentation.

 
A recording of the webinar and supporting materials will be made available on the investor relations page of the Company's website.

Summary of Key Financial Metrics

Note:

(1) Non-GAAP measure. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as alternatives to net income/loss determined in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before stock-based compensation, financing, and acquisition related expenses. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful financial metric for investors as it adjusts income to reflect amounts which the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives.

Non-IFRS measures

This news release presents information about EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-IFRS financial measures, to provide supplementary information about operating performance. Plurilock defines EBITDA as net income or loss before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA removes non-cash share-based compensation, financing, investor relations and acquisition-related expenses from EBITDA. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful financial metric for investors as it adjusts income to reflect amounts which the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended as a substitute for IFRS measures. A limitation of utilizing these non-IFRS measures is that the IFRS accounting effects of the adjustments do in fact reflect the underlying financial results of Plurilock's business and these effects should not be ignored in evaluating and analyzing Plurilock's financial results. Therefore, management believes that Plurilock's IFRS measures of net loss and the same respective non-IFRS measure should be considered together. Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Readers should refer to the Company's most recently filed MD&A for a more detailed discussion of these measures and their calculations.
