Ottawa, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 16, 2021) - KWESST Micro Systems Inc. (TSXV: KWE) (OTCQB: KWEMF) ("KWESST" or "the Company") today announced that it has filed on SEDAR an amended Annual Information Form for the fiscal period ended September 30, 2020 and Amended and Restated Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and MD&A for the three-month period ended December 31, 2020 (the "Q1 Filings").

The primary change to the Q1 Filings is the reversal of $159,124 accrued liabilities for the annual payment related to the acquisition of the GhostStep electronic decoy in June 2020 because it was previously accounted for in the fair value of the purchase consideration of GhostStep Technology. Accordingly, this resulted in an equal reduction in the consolidated net loss for the quarter, with no change to the reported net loss per share (basic and diluted).
