Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 4, 2026) - LQWD Technologies Corp. (TSXV: LQWD) (OTCQX: LQWDF)  ("LQWD" or the "Company"), a Bitcoin treasury and institutional-grade core Lightning Network infrastructure company, is pleased to announce that it has received approval from the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") to conduct, at the Company's discretion, a normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB").

As of the date hereof, LQWD has 31,863,408 common shares issued and outstanding and the maximum number of common shares that may be purchased under the NCIB is approximately 2,605,548, representing approximately 10% of the Company's public float.

The NCIB will commence on March 9, 2026, and will terminate on March 9, 2027, or such earlier date on which the maximum number of common shares permitted under the NCIB has been purchased. The Company reserves the right to terminate the NCIB at any time.

Purchases under the NCIB will be made through the facilities of the TSXV in accordance with applicable TSXV rules and policies. LQWD has appointed Haywood Securities Inc. to conduct the NCIB on its behalf. The Company will pay the prevailing market price for any common shares purchased, and the actual number of shares purchased, and the timing of such purchases will be determined by the Company.

LQWD believes that, from time to time, the market price of its common shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company's business, assets, and growth prospects. Accordingly, the Company believes that the repurchase of its common shares for cancellation under the NCIB may represent an attractive use of funds and a means of enhancing long-term shareholder value.
