Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 23, 2024) - CISCOM Corp. (CSE: CISC) (OTCQB: CISCF) ("Ciscom" or "the Company"), which actively invests in, acquires, and manages companies within the Information and Communication Technology sector, wishes to update its shareholders and stakeholders about recent developments regarding its share ownership and provide a business update.

As previously disclosed, on March 8, 2024, Ciscom formally alerted the Ontario Securities Commission ("OSC") of its concerns regarding DLT Resolution Inc.'s ("DLT") alleged share ownership as both unqualified and unlawful, raising serious concerns about the accuracy of DLT's public disclosures. The Company strongly disputed reported ownership and also observed that DLT had failed to comply with the necessary regulations and SEDI reporting requirements, all of which are crucial for shareholder protection.

On March 13, 2024, Ciscom issued a release cautioning investors regarding DLT's asserted share ownership, and advising that Ciscom was evaluating the activation of the Shareholders' Rights Plan (the "Plan") announced on March 4, 2024. Ciscom further advised that it continued to question the legitimacy of DLT's claimed share ownership.

On May 3, 2024, DLT filed an Early Warning Report and issued a press release stating that it had elected to unwind, in full, the previously announced share exchange transactions it entered into with certain shareholders of Ciscom ("Share Exchanges"), so that as of that date DLT no longer beneficially owned or exercised control or direction over any Common Shares of Ciscom. DLT reported that its decision to unwind the Share Exchanges followed a series of discussions with the OSC relating to applicable Canadian securities law requirements in connection with the Share Exchanges.

On May 7, 2024, Ciscom formally alerted the OSC that Ciscom remained concerned about the accuracy of DLT's asserted share ownership. Ciscom advised the OSC that despite DLT's May 3, 2024 release stating that it no longer owned or exercised control or direction over any Common Shares of Ciscom, Ciscom's records indicated that DLT did in fact continue to hold some Ciscom shares, and that additional shares were transferred to DLT on the date of the press release. In the same communication to the OSC, Ciscom reiterated its concerns that DLT's and its management SEDI filings regarding their Ciscom ownership were incorrect.

FOCUSED ON A SOLID BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

"Ciscom continues to move forward," Gaynor continued. "We are focused on our corporate mandate and are concentrating on our core business of successfully investing, acquiring, and managing companies in the ICT sector."

On May 10, Ciscom published strong 2024 first quarter results showing continued business growth in spite of a challenging retail market. Recently filed Q1 2024 financial statements can be found here and Management Discussions & Analysis can be found here.

Ciscom has also this month added bench strength to its Board of Directors with the addition of Stephen Lautens and Angel Valov, two industry leading professionals.

"We are delighted to add Angel Valov and Stephen Lautens to our board," said Paul Gaynor.

Mr. Gaynor continued that "with these additions, as well as Tracy Weslosky earlier this year, I feel the board has the talent, knowledge, expertise and energy to really move the company ahead,"
