SMART WIRES TECHNOLOGY LTD ISSUES Q3 2022 INTERIM REPORT AND UPDATES ORDER GUIDANCE

“There is no doubt that we have faced many challenges in 2022. We’re not through the year yet and still have plans to reframe and deliver better output, but supply chain delays have impacted production – in terms of new product cut-in, ramping, and volume – which has prevented backlog execution, deliveries, and milestone payment collections. We have continued to develop and position the business, but the delays reached a point in Q3, where we were left with no choice on dropping revenue and margin guidance, lowering new orders expectations, and announcing the need to address near-term liquidity challenges, up to and including the possible sale of the business.

Our hypothesis that lighthouse customers will drive our growth remains unchanged. We know that these accounts will drive core growth, and a broader ripple effect on the regions and countries where these customers operate.

What has changed is that we will focus our investment, product development, and resource allocation on these customers and markets. We are not dropping the broader marketplace (which remains large and full of potential) but rather than chasing, we will wait for these markets to come to us. This allows us to be far more focused, with a lower cost structure, while positioned to react and respond as opportunities evolve.

Finally, we recently announced the issuance of Preferred Shares that will provide new capital up to $20 million with $5 million already funded and an additional $5 million to be funded by December 1, 2022. In addition, we also announced our plans to apply for delisting from the NASDAQ First North Growth Market.
