About Pineapple Financial Inc.

Source: Item 1 (Business) from the 10-K filed December 3, 2025. Description as filed by the company with the SEC.

ITEM
1. BUSINESS

General

Pineapple
Financial is a Canadian mortgage technology and brokerage company. We provide mortgage brokerage services and technology solutions to
Canadian mortgage agents, brokers, sub-brokers, brokerages and consumers. Through data-driven systems and cloud-based tools, we believe
we offer competitive advantages in the Canadian mortgage industry relative to traditional broker arrangements.

We
also provide back-office and pre-underwriting support services (together, the “Brokerage Services”) to Canadian mortgage
brokerages (the “Brokerages”). In connection with the provision of the Brokerage Services, we employ and engage licensed
mortgage brokers and agents (collectively, “Field Agents”). As of the date of this filing, we have 39 full-time employees.
In addition, we enter into affiliation agreements with certain licensed mortgage brokers (“Affiliate Brokers” and, together
with Field Agents and Brokerages, the “Users”) under which we jointly market mortgage brokerage and other financial services
as affiliated entities. This “white-label” model allows Affiliate Brokers to offer mortgages under their own brand to their
client base while operating on our platform and within our controls.

We
offer Brokerage Services for both residential and commercial mortgage opportunities through our proprietary technology platform, Pineapple+
[and related tools, together, the “Platform”]. The Platform supports the mortgage life cycle from lead intake and pre-qualification
through underwriting support, documentation, compliance, and funded-deal analytics.

Revenue
Model

Our
revenue model is diversified across platform subscriptions, pre-risk assessment services and lender partner commissions. Percentages
below are approximate and subject to period-to-period variation.

1.Subscription
services. Agents who use the Platform to manage the life cycle of a mortgage from initiation to funding pay subscription fees of $141.50
per month. This stream represents approximately 3% of total gross revenue.

2.Pre-risk
assessment services. We charge a per-deal fee for pre-underwriting support and documentation preparation. For mortgages with a funded
amount of $390,000 and over, the fee is $390 per deal. For mortgages under $390,000, the fee is $273 per deal. This stream represents
approximately 1.3% of total gross revenue.

3.Lender
partner service commissions. The balance of total gross revenue, approximately 95%, is derived from commissions and volume-based compensation
from lender partners. Commission structures vary by rate, amount, promotional programs, bonus eligibility and funded volume. Our lender
partners include banks, trust companies, mortgage finance companies and other financial institutions, including but not limited to; Bank
of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank), Manulife Bank of Canada, Toronto-Dominion Bank, MCAP, First National Financial LP, Home Trust Company, Equitable
Bank, Community Trust, Bank of Montreal (BMO) and Desjardins Mortgage Financing Services.

Geographic
Footprint and Licensing

We
currently operate in Canada, with active brokerage operations in Ontario, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, British
Columbia, Prince Edward Island, Manitoba and Alberta. We launched our first brokerage in Ontario in November 2016, opened our Alberta
office on July 1, 2021, expanded into Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island on May 4, 2022,
and opened our first British Columbia brokerage office in 2024. We have been approved by applicable provincial mortgage regulators to
operate in the following provinces and territories: Alberta, British Columbia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories,
Nova Scotia, Nunavut, Prince Edward Island, Quebec and Yukon, and we are pursuing additional licensing in Saskatchewan.

Technology

Our
Platform integrates lead routing, CRM, document collection, compliance workflows, lender connectivity and analytics. By centralizing
workflow and data, we aim to improve agent productivity, reduce turnaround times and enhance compliance monitoring. The Platform is cloud-hosted
with role-based access controls, audit trails and data security protocols that are designed to meet or exceed applicable regulatory expectations.

Digital
Asset Treasury Strategy

In
fiscal 2025, we established a digital asset treasury strategy (the “Treasury Strategy”) as a component of our corporate
treasury and strategic partnership program. The Treasury Strategy permits the Company, subject to internal policies, board oversight
and applicable law, to hold a capped allocation of liquid digital assets to support research and development, ecosystem partnerships
and potential future integrations with our mortgage technology stack. As of the date of this filing, the Treasury Strategy is managed
separately from brokerage operations. The Treasury Strategy is subject to strict custody, risk, accounting and compliance policies, including
segregation of assets, volatility limits, impairment monitoring and disclosure controls.

On-Chain
Mortgage Development

We
are conducting research and development to explore the application of distributed ledger and smart-contract technologies to selected
elements of the mortgage lifecycle (“On-Chain Mortgage Development”). Areas of exploration include, among others, identity
and document attestations, collateral and lien data registries, payment and remittance workflows, servicing data integrity, and potential
future pathways for asset issuance and investor reporting. These initiatives are currently in development and do not contribute material
revenue. Any commercial deployment will require successful technical validation, market acceptance, appropriate regulatory permissions
and the establishment of robust compliance, privacy and security controls. We may pursue pilot programs with ecosystem partners and service
providers to evaluate feasibility and cost-benefit outcomes.

Compliance
and Regulatory

Our
brokerage activities are subject to provincial mortgage brokerage laws and regulations, consumer protection requirements, anti-money
laundering and anti-terrorist financing obligations, privacy and data protection laws and related guidance. We maintain policies, procedures,
training and supervision designed to promote compliance, including for third-party affiliates who operate on our Platform. Our Treasury
Strategy and On-Chain Mortgage Development are subject to additional legal, accounting, tax and regulatory considerations. We evaluate
these programs with external legal counsel and advisors and implement governance, risk and control frameworks that we believe are appropriate
for their scope and scale.

MyPineapple

At
the heart of our Brokerage Services is an innovative technology system, MyPineapple, that provides real time data management and reporting,
lead generation opportunities, customer relationship management, deal processing, education and knowledge center, payroll, regulatory
compliance, data analytics, document collection and storage, automated onboarding, lender access, back office support and direct underwriting
support, all in one. MyPineapple offers network management capabilities for Users, including hundreds of qualified Field Agents, to create
an efficient marketplace for the provision of mortgage lending and insurance industry services. MyPineapple integrates directly with
Equifax, OneSpan, G Suite and Filogix and manages Users’ day-to-day business through automated triggers and tasks, ensuring nothing
falls through the cracks. MyPineapple syncs up with Users’ calendar and emails, produces robust reporting, advanced analytics,
and real-time notifications on marketing communications, and more. MyPineapple is a sophisticated and fundamental tool for revenue growth
and relationship development. It plays a significant role in what we believe makes our Brokerage Services distinct and cutting-edge.

2

MyPineapple
was created to address key issues within the mortgage brokerage industry. We built MyPineapple to create a long-term competitive advantage
relative to traditional service providers, who have comparatively high-touch, labor intensive and costly operations. We believe that,
through MyPineapple, we are able to deliver faster services and with fewer errors. Our MyPineapple platform is completely automated,
simplifying the mortgage process while providing efficiencies to and alleviating pressure on Users’ staff in completing traditional
administrative tasks, which in turn reduces the Users’ cost structure and results in increased profit margins and scalability.
MyPineapple reduces manual processes through robust quality control mechanisms, logistics management capabilities, capacity planning
tools and end-to-end transaction management. MyPineapple also includes a leading education technology platform, which enables Users to
continuously stay informed and educated on what mortgage solutions and market conditions could impact Canadian consumers.

Our
primary objectives and goals include, but are not limited to, the following:


Grow our mortgage broker distribution channel to gain further market share and consumer adoption, including increasing organic (non-acquisition
related) market share and to achieve growth on the number of mortgages funded annually;


Become the go-to mortgage experience platform for mortgage agents, lenders and homebuyers;


For Pineapple Insurance to provide an insurance option for all our mortgage approvals;


To ensure that we are providing a well-rounded and custom-tailored approach to insurance solutions that may best suit the clients’
needs;


To leverage the power of our growing database and brand recognition to open further insurance opportunity channel; and

Streamline
the insurance approval and application process for mortgage clients using technology.

industry to save Users from spending valuable resources on mortgage applications that have fewer chances of reaching approval. In particular,
we offer our Users the following pre-underwriting services, aimed at speeding up the underwriting process and helping mortgage lenders
make accurate decisions:


Credit Review: We verify all information that is supplied by the client in vital loan documents and other personal information. Thereafter,
we meticulously review client credit records and tax return documents to ensure the client has the required financial stability to make
monthly payments for the mortgage. We follow checklist-based system to ensure that all the critical aspects pertaining to underwriting
are covered.

By digitizing these vital information sets about the client, we are able to establish the accuracy and speed needed to expedite the underwriting
process.


Fraud Analysis and Compliance: We pride ourselves in diligently checking for identity fraud and ensuring that applications are compliant
and contain complete information. Our mortgage experts have the experience and acumen to spot missing or mala fide information. This
obviates the need for the underwriter to send client files back for incomplete information and thereby speeds up the underwriting process.
Our fraud analysis encompasses all aspects of the client file review process including running third-party reports. This ensures the
underwriter has to focus only on decision-making.


Appraisal Ordering and Review: We take charge of title ordering and dispatching verified property information to the appraiser to boost

MyPineapple allows us to utilize the data that has been acquired through the mortgage approval process along with real time real estate
and credit data to thereby reduce costs and overall debt process timelines.

Insurance
Products

Pineapple
Insurance Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Pineapple Financial Inc. This entity is to serve the insurance needs of our brand mortgage
brokers and agents across Canada. Pineapple Insurance is to act as a Managing General Agent (MGA) supported by Industrial Alliance. This
entity will create both a revenue channel and retention strategy for borrowers that live within our database. This will also allow a
growth opportunity and an overall holistic financial services opportunity for us. We are currently in the early stages of development
of Pineapple Insurance Inc. Operational infrastructure and a budget has been prepared alongside technology modifications to our MyPineapple
system in order to manage the delivery of this product. We have also created a sales and marketing plan alongside assets and materials,
which will be used for initial launch. Our next steps are staffing and human capital requirements in order to execute on the business
plan and goals of developing Pineapple Insurance.

Pineapple
Insurance provides the following services:


We will complete a needs analysis on each client to ensure the most suitable product to meet both their needs and their goals. In our
product suite, we will offer term life insurance which will provide a low-cost coverage at a fixed rate of payments for a limited period
of time for the life of the mortgage. The goal of this product is to ensure that in the event of the insurer’s untimely death with
their term policy their beneficiaries will be covered in the amount of the policy during the life of the term. No insurance will be paid
to the beneficiary should the insured pass away after the end of the term or if the insured did not make the required payments.


Whole Life Insurance is a life insurance policy which is guaranteed to remain in force for the insured’s entire lifetime, provided
required premiums are paid, or to the maturity date. In addition to paying a death benefit, whole life insurance also contains a savings
component in which cash value may accumulate on a tax-advantaged basis. The policies can be leveraged as collateral or an asset with
our lenders through the Company.


For both our personal and our business clients, we offer permanent life insurance policies, which offer a death benefit and cash value.
The death benefit is money that is paid to your beneficiaries when you pass away. Cash value is a separate savings component that you
may be able to access while you are still alive. Permanent insurance can help cover the business owner for their entire life. And unlike
term insurance, it includes the potential for a cash accumulation fund. Investments in the fund are tax-preferred, including at death
when the tax-free death benefit is paid out to a named beneficiary. An additional benefit of permanent life insurance is that allocating
funds in a corporation away from taxable investments to a permanent life insurance policy can help reduce overall annual taxable investment
income. Permanent life insurance lasts from the time you buy a policy to the time you pass away, as long as you pay the required premiums.
The policies can be leveraged as collateral or an asset with our lenders through the Company.


Critical Illness Insurance provides additional coverage for medical emergencies like heart attacks, strokes, or cancer. Because these
emergencies or illnesses often incur greater-than-average medical costs, these policies pay out cash to help cover those overruns where
traditional health insurance may fall short and help cover living expenses while the client recovers. These policies come at a relatively
low cost. However, the instances that they will cover are generally limited to a few illnesses or emergencies. The key element is to
ensure that the mortgagor does not fall behind in their mortgage payments.


Credit Insurance is a type of life insurance that can cover the remaining amount of your loan in the event of your death. Your insurance
company will use the death benefit to pay down or pay off the remaining balance on the loan, up to a maximum amount outlined in the certificate
of insurance. The money from your death benefit will go to your creditor. The money will not go to your family or beneficiaries.

We
offer a wide range of investment options to suit clients risk tolerance and investment preferences. A financial advisor will review and
assess the needs of each client to determine the short- and long-term goals for financial success. Such options may include segregated
funds or mutual funds for registered (registered education savings plans (RESPs), registered retirement savings plans (RRSPs), tax-free
savings accounts (TFSAs), etc.) and non-registered accounts. A segregated fund, or seg fund, is a type of investment fund administered
by Canadian insurance companies in the form of individual, variable life insurance contracts offering certain guarantees to the policyholder
such as reimbursement of capital upon death and mutual funds. As a regulatory requirement, all Canadian mortgage approvals being presented
by the mortgage broker channel must include the option for a client to consider an insurance option in an effort to protect the liability
in the case of death or disability. Pineapple Insurance Inc. will be presenting this insurance option for a client to accept or not via
the products that we have available. This will be presented to all mortgage approvals being offered via our parent company, Pineapple
Financial Inc.

As
a complementary service to our parent company, Pineapple Financial Inc., this insurance subsidiary was created to easily serve the needs
of the homeowners whose mortgages originate with us. With any mortgage product in Canada, an insurance component is a requirement, hence
the diversification and business development into insurance.

Our
insurance services identified above currently are provided by a third-party insurance company, Industrial Alliance Inc., with whom we
are affiliated as a managing general agent (MGA). We, therefore, act as an agent earning commissions from the premiums charged by the
insurance company.

We
believe the material steps for Pineapple Insurance to grow form its early stages of development are as follows:

1.
To introduce the services offered by Industrial Alliance and to serve the Users on our platform, MyPineapple, is to market these services,
create a knowledge base for them to understand and pass on the learning to their customers, create a support structure for both Users
and Users’ customers.

2.
Set up an internal infrastructure for the management and offering of these services, i.e. hire a senior management person to manage the
operational affairs and thereafter additional personnel, as needed when the business grows. The additional personnel will be mostly sales
commissionable personnel with a retainer.

Pineapple
Insurance officially launched in October 2024, marking a significant milestone in Pineapple Financial’s diversification strategy.
The costs anticipated for Pineapple Insurance are largely tied to marketing efforts, human capital, and platform development. Human capital
costs include a fixed expense for senior leadership, along with variable costs for additional personnel as the business scales. With
the strategic integration of Pineapple Insurance into the MyPineapple platform, our development costs are aimed at ensuring seamless
client experiences and operational efficiency.

The
growth timeline for Pineapple Insurance is projected at 12 to 24 months post-launch, reflecting strong initial demand and the effectiveness
of our comprehensive go-to-market strategy. This timeline is contingent upon the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, customer adoption
of the services offered by Industrial Alliance, and the competitiveness of pricing and premiums. The early success of our launch indicates
promising customer acceptance, supported by focused efforts to educate users on product variations and benefits. These efforts are expected
to accelerate market penetration and drive sustained growth for this subsidiary.

InsurTech

MyPineapple
is a key reason for our success and has the ability to drive interested and timely insurance prospects to a replicated module that we
have built in order to streamline and manage the customer flow for insurance products. The process is designed to create a unique synchronicity
between the client obtaining a mortgage approval and insurance approval.

Combined,
the simplicity of the two platforms with its connectivity and integrations will allow Pineapple Insurance to successfully process and
approve insurance applications.

We
have also created client segmentations and retention programs to ensure that we can maximize our database of over 150,000 potential clients.

Growth
Strategy

Brokerage
Services

We
aim to gain further market share and consumer adoption by focusing on the following areas of growth:

1.
Increase Agent Revenue From Optimized Analytics: We will continue to analyze past borrower data to determine opportunities to beneficially
re-service them in the future, potentially creating revenue generating activities and significantly enhancing the borrower experience.

2.
Added Product Suite - Insurance. As discussed above, we are establishing an insurance channel that provides borrowers with a full suite
of insurance products, which we believe will increase revenue.

3.
National Expansion: We expect to continue to expand our business and operations into current jurisdictions along with new provinces such
as British Colombia and Quebec.

4.
Borrower-Facing Technology. We believe MyPineapple will be a marketplace where clients can select from a variety of mortgage products
that will suit their individual needs while tracking the progress and status of the transaction for the life of the mortgage and beyond.

Insurance
Products

In
order to achieve our objectives and goals, Pineapple Insurance will focus on four main areas:

1.
Insurance originations: Our files will be obtained exclusively through the Pineapple Financial referral network. This will be achieved
through technology integration where Pineapple Insurance agents are immediately notified of a mortgage approval which requires an insurance
option. Our agents will be highly trained in an effort to service the growth of our referral network. Consistency in service level and
approach is key to building our brand.

2.
Emphasizing core values: Servicing our clients, maintaining relationships, ongoing and continued support, education and training, ongoing
lines of communication between mortgage agent and insurance agent and ensuring a smooth and efficient closing process. We expect our
agents to conduct themselves with the highest level of professionalism and carry out the fundamental and core values of Pineapple Insurance
at all times.

3.
Hiring and training insurance agents: We will follow and adhere to strict hiring and training policies as set out in our training manuals.
Development of education and training programs working in conjunction with our partners. Ensuring that we are consistently working on
recruiting top performing insurance agents that will be able to meet the growth and scale of the needs of the Company.

4.
Technologies and relationship management tools: We will be replicating and customizing our robust MyPineapple system for data transfer
and client management. This will be broken into the following areas:


Operational Excellence: notifying insurance agents at the optimal time to increase conversion metrics and customer satisfaction. Integration
of client data so the process is convenient for all involved parties. Visibility of status and automations of workflow and requirements;


Client Relationship Management (CRM): Advancing client relationships towards application indication, application completion and client
retention; and

7


Acquisition: marketing funnels to leverage the overall database and identity opportunities from older missed opportunities.

Markets
for our Services

Brokerage
Services

The
clients for our Brokerage Services include mortgage agents, brokers, sub-brokers, brokerages and consumers. Our customer activity is
intrinsically linked to the health of the real estate or commercial markets generally, particularly in Canada.

Strong
housing demand during 2020, 2021 and the first quarter of 2022 positively impacted the seasonal variations. With the onset of inflationary
pressures around the globe, not only the seasonality but the normal trends of the housing markets have declined with the increase of
interest rates. Although our business may be negatively impacted, we believe our multiple channels of revenue help to mitigate any such
impact.

In
alignment with the Canadian government’s commitment to improving housing affordability and accessibility, several new housing measures
have been introduced to support homeowners and first-time buyers. These include enabling homeowners to refinance their mortgages to construct
secondary rental suites and borrowing up to 90% of their home’s value with a 30-year amortization period. Additionally, the mortgage
insurance price limit has been increased to $2 million, ensuring broader access to financing across Canada’s diverse housing markets.

The
government has also proposed consultations on taxing vacant land to encourage development and incentivize landowners to build homes.
Collaboration with provinces, territories, and municipalities is underway to implement these measures effectively. Starting December
15, 2024, two key rules will further aid affordability: 30-year mortgage amortizations will become available to all first-time homebuyers
and buyers of new-build properties, and the price cap for insured mortgages will rise to $1.5 million from $1 million.

Moreover,
the federal government has expanded the Canada Public Land Bank by adding 14 underused federal properties, bringing the total to 70.
These properties across major cities are slated for affordable housing developments. This initiative supports the government’s
broader plan to unlock public lands for housing and address the growing demand for homes while strengthening Canadian communities.

These
measures, alongside the influx of new immigrants and the rising demand for home renovations, refurbishments, and innovative financing
solutions, create a favorable environment for Pineapple Financial Inc. to continue expanding its offerings and capitalizing on these
growth opportunities.

Insurance
Products

The
insurance market for Pineapple Insurance is focused around growth in the Canadian mortgage landscape as well as market share growth for
Pineapple Financial.


Real estate investors: we are able to consolidate multiple mortgage amounts into one insurance policy to help minimize risk if an investor
has multiple properties.


Residential Home purchase: with Canadian housing prices hitting all-time highs, we will help clients provide insurance to fill the gap
between their current coverage and the mortgage amount


Refinance: can help clients reduce existing coverage or apply/consolidate if they require additional coverage.


Reverse Mortgage: these clients can use the income from the reverse mortgage to help plan their final expense through insurance as well
as enrich their retirement years.

8


Switch: transferring to another lender at renewal. The insurance we offer is not tied to the lender directly and can assist clients in
locking in their rates long term when they can still qualify for insurance


Renovation and construction: Clients will be able to access their cash values in their permanent insurance policies to help fund their
renovations and construction projects. If additional financing is required, we can provide the added insurance coverage needed.


Self-Employed: As large numbers of Canadians move into business for themselves, we have found a great need for an insurance product that
can suit their needs since they generally do not have a company benefits plan. Income protection will also be a key component of our
business here.


Commercial Mortgages: We can provide the proper insurance to clients for the right amount of coverage and timeline for one or multiple
investors. Coverages can go up to $20 million.


Private Lending: Customized insurance can be provided to private lenders who may have a different set of circumstances in terms of investment
type and timeline horizon.


High Risk Health & Uninsurable: We can offer guaranteed issue insurance to clients who may have declining health or were previously
declined for insurance in the past.

Pineapple
Financial Inc. and Mortgage Market Dependency

As
of November 2024, Canada’s mortgage market continues to demonstrate resilience despite ongoing challenges. According to the Bank
of Canada, the total residential mortgage market is valued at over $1.6 trillion, driven by population growth, increasing borrower demand,
and evolving consumer sentiment. This figure excludes mortgages held by provincially regulated entities such as credit unions and mortgage
investment corporations.

Mortgage
lenders offer a broad range of products, including fixed and variable rates, varying terms, and flexible amortization periods. Recent
interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada have rejuvenated the market, improving affordability for new buyers and creating opportunities
for existing homeowners to refinance or renew at more favorable terms. The practice of negotiating discounted rates remains prevalent,
highlighting the importance of mortgage brokers in securing competitive deals for clients.

Mortgage
brokers are critical intermediaries, leveraging their volume-based bargaining power to erode lender price discrimination and secure advantageous
rates. These professionals are provincially regulated and must meet stringent licensing and training requirements. While the barriers
to entry remain relatively low, successful brokers rely on experience, negotiating skills, and technological support to thrive in an
increasingly competitive market.

Key
trends currently influencing the market include:


Renewals Surge: Over 30% of Canadian mortgages are expected to renew within the next 12 months, a significant driver of market activity.


Housing Shortages: A growing population, combined with limited housing supply, has led to increased pressure on the market, with demand
consistently outstripping available inventory.


Government Policies: Recent adjustments, such as the introduction of a 30-year amortization period for insured mortgages and incentives
for affordable housing, have bolstered consumer confidence and created new opportunities.

9


Consumer Sentiment: Improved confidence, spurred by rate cuts and stabilizing economic conditions, has increased buyer activity despite
affordability challenges.


Technology Adoption: Platforms like MyPineapple are transforming the brokerage landscape by streamlining processes and providing brokers
with data-driven tools to enhance efficiency and client satisfaction.

Industry
Growth Strategy

Our
growth strategy focuses on organic expansion, targeting increased market share through:

1.
Recruitment: We have successfully recruited a significant number of Field Agents and Users, driving a growth rate higher than
many competitors. By leveraging detailed insights into competitive models, we have tailored our value proposition to attract and retain
top talent.

2.
Technological Integration: Our proprietary platform, MyPineapple, empowers brokers with tools to increase sales volume, productivity,
and efficiency. This system also supports the seamless integration of complementary services, such as insurance products, creating additional
revenue streams and enhancing the overall client experience.

3.
Policy Alignment: By aligning our offerings with government initiatives to support housing affordability and address shortages,
we have positioned ourselves as a key player in addressing critical market needs.

4.
Focus on Renewals and Refinances: With a large portion of the mortgage market up for renewal in the next year, we have tailored
solutions to help brokers optimize their client retention and capitalize on refinancing opportunities.

Our
strategy is underpinned by a commitment to delivering superior value, leveraging data and insights to support broker success, and maintaining
flexibility to adapt to evolving market conditions. This approach ensures we remain a leader in the Canadian mortgage and brokerage industry.

b)Voltedge

been issued, and the arrangement has not yet been registered with the SEC.

Management
concluded that these transactions occurred after year-end and therefore did not require adjustment to the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. The Company will continue to monitor subsequent developments related to the escrow releases, SEC registration processes,
and loan facility utilization for disclosure in future filings.

Industry
Overview

The Canadian Mortgage and Mortgage Brokerage Industry

The
Canadian mortgage market represents one of the largest and most stable segments of the national financial system, with residential mortgage
credit exceeding $1.8 trillion as of 2025, according to data from the Bank of Canada. This total does not include mortgages held by provincially
regulated entities such as credit unions or mortgage investment corporations.

Mortgage
lenders in Canada offer a broad range of products featuring fixed or variable interest rates, varying terms and amortization periods,
and differing provisions for pre-payments, rate holds, and other features. Interest rates are typically renegotiated every three to five
years. While lenders post benchmark rates, actual mortgage pricing is widely negotiated—a practice referred to as “discounting”—which
has become an established norm across the industry. This approach enables lenders to offer customized pricing based on borrower risk
profiles and market conditions.

This
environment has elevated the role of the independent mortgage broker as a key intermediary between borrowers and lenders. Brokers leverage
their lender relationships and market insight to secure competitive rates and terms for their clients. In return for a fee, typically
paid by the lender, brokers help borrowers navigate an increasingly complex rate and qualification environment. Mortgage brokers are
provincially regulated and must meet licensing and continuing-education standards. Although barriers to entry remain modest, a broker’s
ability to negotiate advantageous terms is closely tied to their volume, reputation, and lender relationships.

Pineapple’s
Market Position and Growth Strategy

Pineapple’s
growth strategy focuses on expanding market share organically by increasing the number of mortgages funded annually and strengthening
our network of mortgage professionals. Our approach emphasizes recruitment, retention, and empowerment of high-performing Field Agents
through superior technology, marketing support, and operational efficiency.

Our
proprietary platform, MyPineapple, is designed to enhance agent productivity and client service through advanced deal management tools,
marketing automation, and real-time data analytics. This digital infrastructure allows our agents to process applications more efficiently,
improve client conversion, and increase overall sales volume.

11

We
continue to invest in recruitment and training initiatives that have positioned Pineapple among the fastest-growing mortgage brokerages
in Canada. By maintaining a deep understanding of competing brokerage models, we continually refine our value proposition to attract
and retain top-performing agents.

Our
long-term vision is to establish Pineapple as Canada’s leading digital-first mortgage platform, connecting brokers, lenders, and
consumers through a unified ecosystem built on transparency, technology, and trust. Through innovation and scale, we aim to strengthen
our competitive position and create sustained value for our stakeholders.

Competitive
Conditions

Regulatory backdrop.

OSFI’s
Guideline B-20 has governed residential mortgage underwriting for federally regulated lenders since January 1, 20181. In
November 2024, OSFI exempted uninsured “straight-switch” renewals between federally regulated lenders from the
prescribed minimum qualifying rate (MQR) when the loan amount and amortization 2 do not increase 3 Separately,
the federal government introduced policy changes effective in 2024–2025, including permitting 30-year amortizations for
insured mortgages for first-time buyers of newly built homes (effective August 1, 2024) increasing the Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP)
withdrawal limit to $60,000 (for withdrawals after April 16, 2024) . In this environment, consumers continue to seek broker guidance
to navigate product terms, renewals, and rate complexity; CMHC’s Mortgage Consumer Surveys highlight sustained demand for
professional advice across buying, renewing, and refinancing cohorts.

Structural
drivers of broker usage.


Underwriting stringency and evolving supervisory expectations sustain demand for broker intermediation and alternative product access.


Product complexity and segmented borrower profiles heighten the value of multi-lender comparison and advice.


Renewals and switches remain an important activity channel for brokers, aided by the 2024 MQR change for uninsured straight
switches.


Digital expectations favor platforms that centralize documents, credit data, and lender connectivity for faster turn times.

Primary
Competitors

1.Traditional
mortgage brokerages. National networks and franchise systems with established lender relationships and scale (e.g., Dominion Lending
Centres, Verico, Mortgage Alliance, Centum).

2.Digital
mortgage companies. Direct-to-consumer offerings emphasizing online origination while funding through major lenders or captive entities
(e.g., Nesto, Homewise).

3.Mortgage
technology providers. Point-solution vendors for specific workflow steps (document intake, pricing, underwriting support) that require
integration by legacy firms.

Competitive
Advantages

Distribution
and advice. Broad panel access across banks, trust companies, and mortgage finance companies enables product fit for purchase, refinance,
switch, and alternative-credit scenarios; Field Agents are trained to align recommendations with client objectives and total cost of
borrowing.

Platform
and data. PineappleONE centralizes lead routing, CRM, document collection, compliance workflows, lender connectivity, and funded-deal
analytics. Data models segment clients and surface retention/cross-sell opportunities via actionable signals and automated reminders.
Education and knowledge resources support file quality, lender fit, and compliance. Role-based access controls and audit trails are designed
to strengthen data integrity and reporting.

Operations.
Centralized pre-underwriting and processing support can improve conversion and funding ratios while allowing Field Agents to focus on
acquisition and advice. Marketing automation and segmented communications reduce acquisition costs and enhance lifetime value.

Digital
Asset Treasury Strategy (Treasury Strategy) and On-Chain Development

Digital
Asset Treasury (Treasury Strategy). We have established the board-supervised Treasury Strategy program to support research, ecosystem
partnerships, and technology experimentation. The Treasury Strategy is segregated from core brokerage operations and is governed by policies
addressing custody, valuation, financial reporting, volatility limits, and disclosure. The Treasury Strategy does not involve customer
funds.

On-chain
mortgage development. We are conducting R&D on using distributed-ledger technologies for discrete mortgage-lifecycle elements
(e.g., identity/document attestations, collateral and lien registries, servicing data integrity, investor reporting). These initiatives
are exploratory and non-revenue-generating; any deployment will require successful technical validation, market acceptance, appropriate
regulatory permissions, and robust privacy, security, and compliance controls.

Emerging
competitive set.

As
mortgage technology evolves, we expect competition from fintechs, infrastructure providers, and financial institutions pursuing tokenization,
data-sharing standards, or real-time settlement use cases. We believe our combination of active brokerage distribution, proprietary workflow
software, and compliance infrastructure positions us to evaluate and selectively pilot on-chain capabilities while maintaining client
and regulatory safeguards.

Specialized
Skill and Knowledge

Our
business requires specialized skills and knowledge, which include, but are not limited to, expertise related to mortgage underwriting,
mortgage originations, private lending, business development, marketing and business strategy development. Our executive and management
team has a strong background and significant experience and expertise in these areas. Our team also possesses specialized skills in data
architecture, software development, programming and coding, finance and accounting, automations and process, training and education.
Additionally, we currently rely upon, and expect to continue to rely upon, various legal and financial advisors and consultants and others
in the operation and management of our business.

Intangible
Assets

Our business relies heavily on the continued development,
functionality, and security of our proprietary technology platform, Pineapple Plus, which is now fully developed and maintained in-house.
The Company no longer utilizes the Salesforce platform and has transitioned entirely to internally controlled systems and infrastructure.
Pineapple Plus has been architected through a combination of internal development resources and multiple specialized third-party development
partners; however, no single developer or vendor has access to the platform’s complete source code or architecture. This diversified
development structure enhances system security and reduces reliance on any single external contributor.

We protect the proprietary components
of Pineapple Plus primarily through trade secrets, internal controls, and contractual confidentiality obligations, rather than registered
intellectual property rights. All employees, consultants, and advisors with access to our platform or related information are subject
to confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements designed to protect our technology assets and other proprietary information.

Despite
these protections, confidentiality agreements may not always prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of sensitive information, and the
remedies available in the event of a breach may be inadequate. If we are unable to effectively safeguard our proprietary technology and
trade secrets, our competitive position and the value of our platform could be materially impacted.

Material
Contracts

Affiliation
Agreements

We
enter into affiliation agreements with Affiliate Brokers, pursuant to which we and the Affiliate Broker enter into an affiliation relationship
with the intention of jointly marketing mortgage brokerage and other financial services as affiliated entities, sometimes referred to
as “white labelling”, which allows the Affiliate Broker to sell a mortgage that is branded with its company name to its own
client base. Pursuant to these affiliation agreements, we generally receive a fixed commission from the Affiliate Broker for any mortgage
transaction where the Affiliate Broker has acted as the mortgage broker for the borrower. In general, these affiliation agreements have
an indefinite term and may be terminated by either party upon thirty days written notice.

Asset
Management Agreement

Pursuant
to the Securities Purchase Agreement, on September 4, 2025, the Company entered into an Asset Management Agreement (the “Asset
Management Agreement”) with Canary Capital Group LLC (the “Asset Manager”). Under the Asset Management Agreement, the
Asset Manager has been appointed to provide certain asset management services with respect to cryptocurrency assets acquired by the Company
in connection with the Private Placement (the “Account Assets”) maintained with one or more custodians or cryptocurrency
wallet providers acceptable to the Asset Manager. Such asset management services will commence when the Subscription Receipt Agent has
(i) notified the INJ Escrow Agent that all Escrow Release Conditions have been satisfied or waived and (ii) has instructed the INJ Escrow
Agent to deem that title to the INJ proceeds of the Private Placement be transferred to the Company, with 30% of such assets to be managed
by the Asset Manager and 70% of the assets to be managed by the Advisor as a sub-advisor under the Asset Management Agreement.

As
consideration for the Asset Manager’s services, the Company will pay an asset-based fee equal to 1% per annum of the Account Assets,
which shall be calculated and paid at the end of each quarter, as determined by the Asset Manager in a commercially reasonable manner
based on available prices on Coinmarketcap.com. The Company may make no more than one withdrawal from the Account Assets per calendar
quarter, and each such withdrawal shall not exceed $10,000 in value of INJ during the first year. Thereafter, more frequent withdrawals
of more than $10,000 can be made for legitimate business purposes if such withdrawal is pre-approved by the independent members of the
Board, provided that the Company cannot make a withdrawal of more than 50.1% of the Account Assets without the prior approval of a majority
of the stockholders of the Company. The Asset Management Agreement continues in effect until terminated for cause by the Company upon
thirty (30) days’ prior written notice or terminated for cause by the Asset Manager upon thirty (60) days’ prior written
notice. The Asset Management Agreement contains customary representations, indemnification provisions, confidentiality obligations, and
a non-exclusivity clause. The Asset Management Agreement limits the liability of the Asset Manager to the Company for losses arising
under the agreement to cases of willful misconduct, gross negligence, fraud or material breach of contract.

13

Trading
Advisory Agreement

On
September 4, 2025, the Company entered into a Trading Advisory Agreement (the “Trading Advisory Agreement”) with Monarq Asset
Management LLC (the “Advisor”). Under the Trading Advisory Agreement, the Company appoints the Advisor to manage the investment
of all digital assets, digital asset derivatives, cash and other assets contained in the Account (as defined in the Trading Advisory
Agreement) established by the Company with Bitgo Trust Company, Inc. The Trading Advisory Agreement continues in effect until the earlier
of: (i) termination by either party for upon the occurrence of a material breach that is not cured within fifteen days of notice from
the non-breaching party, or (ii) the third anniversary of the Trading Advisory Agreement, provided that the Trading Advisory Agreement
will be automatically renewed for successive one-year periods unless either party provides written notice of its intention not to renew
at least thirty days prior to the expiration of such term. The Company may make no more than one withdrawal from the Account Assets per
calendar quarter, and each such withdrawal shall not exceed $10,000 in value of INJ during the first year. Thereafter, more frequent
withdrawals of more than $10,000 can be made for legitimate business purposes if such withdrawal is pre-approved by the independent members
of the Board, provided that the Company cannot make a withdrawal of more than 50.1% of the Account Assets without the prior approval
of a majority of the stockholders of the Company.

The
services of the Advisor under the Trading Advisory Agreement will commence when the Subscription Receipt Agent has (i) notified the INJ
Escrow Agent that all Escrow Release Conditions have been satisfied or waived and (ii) has instructed the INJ Escrow Agent to deem that
title to the INJ proceeds of the Private Placement be transferred to the Company, with such assets to be managed by the Asset Manager
and the Advisor.

As
consideration for the Advisor’s services, the Company will pay to the Advisor a quarterly management fee equal to 0.25% (a 1.0%
annual rate) of the Account Equity (as defined in the Trading Advisory Agreement) as of the beginning of each calendar quarter regardless
of whether there are realized or unrealized profits with respect to the account. The Trading Advisory Agreement includes customary representations
and warranties and confidentiality provisions, as and provides for indemnification of the Advisor by the Company subject to exclusions
for bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Advisor.

Common
Stock Purchase Agreement

On
September 4, 2025, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “ELOC Purchase Agreement”) with White
Lion Capital, LLC (“White Lion”), whereby the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to sell to White Lion, and White
Lion is obligated to purchase, up to an aggregate of $250,000,000 (the “Commitment Amount”) Common Shares.

The
Company does not have a right to commence any sales of Common Shares to White Lion under the ELOC Purchase Agreement until all conditions
to the Company’s right to commence sales, as set forth in the ELOC Purchase Agreement, have been satisfied, including that a registration
statement covering the resale of such shares is declared effective by the Commission. No such registration statement has been filed and,
as a result, the Company does not have right to commence the sale of Common Shares to White Lion. During the twenty four (24) months
following the effective date of the ELOC Purchase Agreement, we are prohibited from entering into any other “equity line”
or substantially similar facility in which an investor is obligated to purchase our securities over time at prices based on the then-current
market price without White Lion’s prior written consent, except for at-the-market offerings through a registered broker-dealer
and issuances upon conversion or exercise of existing derivative securities.

The
ELOC Purchase Agreement contemplates that the purchase price for Common Shares sold to White Lion will be market-based and determined
by the type of Purchase Notice (as defined in the ELOC Purchase Agreement) issued: under rapid purchase notices the price will be tied
to the lowest traded market price at specified times (with one rapid option effectively at market and the other at a 1% discount), and
under regular purchase notices the price will be a discounted percentage of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the
valuation period (approximately a 2.5%–3% discount based on the Company’s cumulative investment level as set forth in the
ELOC Purchase Agreement).

If
trading in our common shares is suspended, halted, or our shares are delisted during an active Purchase Notice under the ELOC Purchase
Agreement, White Lion will purchase the shares subject to that notice at a price of $0.01 per share.

The
ELOC Purchase Agreement prohibits the Company from directing White Lion to purchase any Common Shares if those shares, when aggregated
with all other Common Shares then beneficially owned by White Lion (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended), would result in White Lion beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding Common Shares (the “Beneficial
Ownership Limitation”), which may be increased to 9.99% at White Lion’s discretion upon 61 days’ prior written notice.

In
consideration for White Lion’s execution and delivery of, and agreement to perform under the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company
sent to White Lion a number of Injective Tokens (INJ) equal to $1,500,000 divided by the lowest trade price of the token seen on Coinbase
three (3) hours prior to delivery of the token (the “Commitment Fee”).

Concurrently
with the ELOC Purchase Agreement, the Company and White Lion entered into the Registration Rights Agreement.

Changes
to Contracts

The
Company does not expect its business to be affected in the current financial year by renegotiation or termination of contracts or sub-contracts.

Regulatory
Environment

Brokerage
License Requirements

In
order to operate its mortgage broker business, we must remain duly licensed as a mortgage broker to deal and trade in mortgages in accordance
with the Mortgage Brokerages, Lenders and Administrators Act, 2006 (Ontario), as amended (the “MBLA Act”). We have had our
mortgage brokerage license since November 2016 and it has been renewed each year without issue. We will be subject to similar legislation
and license requirements in the other provinces in Canada where we intend to expand.

In
accordance with the MBLA Act, individuals, including directors, officers, partners, directors and officers of corporate partners, employees
or agents of a mortgage brokerage company, such as the Company, who are engaged in dealing mortgages or trading in mortgages on its behalf
must obtain a mortgage broker or mortgage agent license. A mortgage broker or agent license authorizes an individual to work for only
the mortgage brokerage company named under the license. An individual cannot be licensed to work for more than one mortgage brokerage
company. The Superintendent of Financial Services will use the information obtained in a mortgage broker license application to determine
whether an applicant meets the prescribed eligibility requirements and is suitable for a license. The applicant will be required to submit
documents to support certain pieces of information about the business.


Application
Process. The application must be completed and submitted to certain regulatory authorities in the provinces and territories of Canada
(each a “Regulatory Authority”), such as the Financial Services Regulatory Authority Ontario. The Regulatory Authority
will send to the applicant an email acknowledgement upon receipt of the application. The Regulatory Authority will advise the applicant
if the application is in order to proceed to the next step in the process. In the next step, the applicant will prepare and submit
the application to license the mortgage brokerage’s principal broker and prepare and submit the online declarations for all
the directors/officers/partners via The Regulatory Authority’s online licensing system. All directors and officers of the mortgage
brokerage company applicant (“DOPs”) are required to provide confirmation of their suitability for licensing of the mortgage
brokerage. A mortgage brokerage’s license can only be approved or issued when all the declarations from DOPs are received and
reviewed by the Regulatory Authority. Once the brokerage’s license has been approved an email will be sent to the principal
broker to indicate the brokerage’s license number. No paper license will be issued. At this point, the brokerage may prepare
and submit applications to license its other brokers and agents via the online licensing system.


Fraud
Prevention Measures. FSRA is required to maintain a public registry of licensed mortgage brokerages. Consistent with FSRA’s
role in protecting the public interest FSRA collaborates with other organizations, including other regulators, fraud prevention organizations
and law enforcement agencies.


Fees
and Renewal. Fees are payable in respect of all applications for licenses, other than for the mortgage brokerage’s principal
broker. The fees are based on a one-year cycle. The fee due is prorated based on when the application is submitted. To simplify the
payment and reconciliation process, mortgage brokerages are also required to submit fees on behalf of their agents and brokers. These
fees are paid electronically when the mortgage brokerage submits license applications for its brokers and agents through the online
licensing system. Once licensed, every mortgage brokerage must pay a regulatory fee in respect of each new one-year cycle. This fee
is due every year on March 31. The mortgage brokerage must also pay fees on behalf of each agent and broker, other than the principal
broker, when renewing their broker or agent licenses for the same one-year cycle.

Insurance
Regulation

Pineapple
Insurance is subject to federal, as well as provincial and territorial, regulation in Canada in the provinces and territories in which
they underwrite insurance/reinsurance. The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (“OSFI”) is the federal
regulatory body that, under the Insurance Companies Act (Canada) (the Insurance Companies Act”), prudentially regulates
federal Canadian and non-Canadian insurance and reinsurance companies operating in Canada. Pineapple Insurance is licensed to carry on
insurance business by OSFI and in each province and territory.

Under
the Insurance Companies Act, Pineapple Insurance is required to maintain an adequate amount of capital in Canada, calculated in accordance
with a test promulgated by OSFI called the Minimum Capital Test. Under the Insurance Companies Act, approval of the Minister of Finance
(Canada) is required in connection with certain acquisitions of shares of, or control of, Canadian insurance companies such as Pineapple
Insurance, and notice to and/or approval of OSFI is required in connection with the payment of dividends by or redemption of shares by
Canadian insurance companies such as Pineapple Insurance.
