Business Update

The Company continues to advance its business and operations, including the restructuring of its balance sheet, the previously announced private placement financing, and the relocation of its manufacturing operations to St Stephen, New Brunswick.

The Company entered into a commercial lease on its new 33,000 sq ft. manufacturing facility on October 26, 2023. Currently, upgrades and retrofitting is underway with completion expected during late February 2024, which will be in advance of the anticipated commencement of manufacturing in March 2024. This new facility will allow the Company to keep its short-term overhead costs low, while allowing the Company to ramp up production in-line with market/dealer demand. Furthermore, municipal and landlord approval has been received to expand on the 17-acre site when needed.

The Company's is also extremely encouraged by the results of its labour recruitment campaign in Southwest New Brunswick, where it saw over 3 times the applicants for most positions, yielding a stable of quality employees for its first wave of trainees, and increased confidence that there is a trainable labour force in the area with transferable skills and an appetite for limestone's employment opportunities going forward. The first wave of the Company's, purpose designed, 12-week training program in partnership with NBCC commenced November 27, 2023.

Throughout the suspension of manufacturing operations, the Company's dealer partners have remained supportive, and there are over a dozen additional dealers that have expressed interest in the Limestone model lineup given current market dynamics, brand following and Limestone's outboard power configurations.

For a more detailed description of the Company's ongoing operations, please see the Company's management discussion and analysis for Q2 2024 available on SEDAR+ () under the Company's profile.
