In making these forward-looking statements, the Company has made certain assumptions, as contemplated below.

Forward-looking information involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual events or results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking information, including, without limitation:

Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that such information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information. Forward-looking information involves statements about the future and is inherently uncertain, and the actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking information due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, without limitation, those referred to in both the Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“AIF”) attached hereto as Exhibit 99.66 hereto and in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of BTQ Technologies Corp. for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (“MD&A”) attached hereto as Exhibit 99.95 hereto under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the AIF and MD&A. Forward-looking information contained in this registration statement and the documents incorporated by reference herein is based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management of the Company on the date the statements are made, and the Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, other than as required by applicable law. In making the forward-looking statements in this registration statement and the documents incorporated by reference herein, the Company has applied several material assumptions which may prove to be inaccurate, including, but not limited to, the assumptions that any financing needed to fund the operations of the Company will be available on reasonable terms. Other assumptions are discussed throughout the AIF and, in particular in the “Risk Factors” section of the AIF and MD&A. For the reasons set forth above, prospective investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information.
