Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - November 29, 2022) - Dash Capital Corp. (TSXV: DCX.P) ("Dash") and Simply Solventless Concentrates Ltd. ("SSC") are pleased to announce SSC has achieved record revenue and EBITDA for Q3 2022 (ended September 30, unaudited and not reviewed by SSC's auditor) and the launch of a private placement financing of SSC convertible debentures. Dash and SSC are also pleased to provide an update regarding the expected timing of the previously announced amalgamation of Dash and SSC (defined as the Transaction below) which, subject to completion of the Transaction, will result in the Resulting Issuer (as defined below) trading under the ticker symbol "HASH" on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").

SSC Q3 2022 Financial Results

As announced in the joint news releases of Dash and SSC dated July 6, 2022, on June 30, 2022, SSC closed the acquisition of the fully licensed Rocky View County facility (the "Acquisition").

Please see Figure 1 below for SSC's unaudited financial results before and after the Acquisition. The financial results have not been reviewed by SSC's auditor.

In the first quarter following the facility Acquisition, SSC's revenue increased by 307%, from $203,034 (Q2 2022) to $826,798 (Q3 2022). SSC's EBITDA improved from an EBITDA loss of $840,137 (Q2 2022) to positive EBITDA of $170,196 (Q3 2022). This is an increase quarter over quarter of over $1,000,000 in EBITDA.

During September and October 2022, SSC achieved its first months of net income profitability. SSC continues to work towards a strong fourth quarter.

The Canadian cannabis market is currently at a point of transition. Market share is being captured from large cannabis companies by craft cannabis brands that offer exceptional products to discerning cannabis consumers. While many cannabis companies have demonstrated unprecedented losses and capital destruction, SSC believes significant opportunity exists for contrarian investors to support craft cannabis companies with lean operating models and profitability and/or profitability potential.

SSC's Near-Term Objectives

SSC's core focus is to achieve increased revenue and profitability in the near-term and to close the Transaction with Dash. SSC is currently in the process of advancing its branded solventless products, which SSC expects to have available for sale to consumers across several product categories in early 2023.

SSC is greatly appreciative of the patience shown by Dash and SSC shareholders and the SSC team through these challenging times. While SSC must continue to de-risk operations and execute on its business plan in a very challenging market, SSC believes:

1. SSC has a talented team comprised of master hashishins, cannabis aficionados, professional engineers, scientists, and other passionate professionals who bring decades of cannabis experience to the table;
2. SSC has solventless good production practices (GPP) and manufacturing capability at scale and quality;
3. SSC has strong customer relationships with contracts in place for B2B and tolling sales;
4. SSC has access to all Canadian retail cannabis markets, where market share appears to be shifting from large licensed producers to smaller craft producers; and
5. Within 90 days of closing the Acquisition, the foundation is being constructed for revenue and profitability growth as SSC has achieved its first months of net income profitability in September and October 2022.

It is the opinion of SSC that solventless products remain underserved in Canadian retail cannabis stores. It is SSC's mandate to make solventless products accessible to sophisticated consumers who are still currently shopping in the black market, and to experienced cannabis consumers currently shopping in the legal channels who are unable to consistently find solventless products in stores at a fair price.

SSC Convertible Debenture Financing

As previously announced in the joint news release of Dash and SSC dated July 6, 2022, SSC is currently conducting a non-brokered private placement of convertible debentures of up to $1,000,000, the gross proceeds of which will be used for inventory, minor capital expenditures, the advancement of its branded product strategy and general working capital purposes. For information regarding this financing, please contact SSC.

Dash cautions that all forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and that actual performance may be affected by a number of material factors, assumptions and expectations, many of which are beyond the control of Dash and SSC, including expectations and assumptions concerning the demand for solventless products, consumer purchasing trends for solventless products, Dash, SSC, the Resulting Issuer, the Transaction, the timely receipt of all required shareholder, court and regulatory approvals (as applicable), including the acceptance of the TSXV, the satisfaction of other closing conditions in accordance with the terms of the Amalgamation Agreement, Amending Agreement, Second Amending Agreement and Third Amending Agreement, as well as other risks and uncertainties, including those described in Dash's final prospectus dated April 26, 2021 filed with the British Columbia Securities Commission, the Alberta Securities Commission, the Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority of Saskatchewan, and the Ontario Securities Commission and available on SEDAR at . The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of any forward-looking statements may prove to be incorrect.

The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Such information, although considered reasonable by management at the time of preparation, may prove to be incorrect and actual results may differ materially from those anticipated. Forward-looking statements contained in this press release are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date of this press release, and Dash and SSC do not undertake any obligation to update publicly or to revise any of the included forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as expressly required by securities law.

Non-IFRS Measures

This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. The non-IFRS measure used in this news release is "EBITDA".

SSC calculates EBITDA as a sum of revenue less cost of goods sold, less all operating expenses other than accretion, amortization, interest and taxes, as determined by management. EBITDA is provided to assist readers in determining the ability of SSC to generate cash from operations and to cover financial charges. Management believes that EBITDA provides useful information to investors as it is an important indicator of an issuer's ability to generate liquidity through cash flow from operating activities. EBITDA is also used by investors and analysts for assessing financial performance and for the purpose of valuing an issuer, including calculating financial and leverage ratios. The most directly comparable financial measure of SSC to which the non-IFRS measure relates is income (loss) from operations.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in any jurisdiction.
