STACK CAPITAL GROUP INC. ANNOUNCES BEST EFFORTS FINANCING FOR UP TO $15,000,000

Stack Capital Group Inc. has set the terms of a best efforts private placement for aggregate gross proceeds to the company of up to $15-million. In connection with the offering, the company announces that it has entered into an agreement with Canaccord Genuity Corp., to act as lead agent and sole bookrunner, for and on behalf of a syndicate of agents to be formed, in connection with a best efforts private placement of up to: (i) 466,666 units of the company at a price of $18.75 per unit for gross proceeds of up to $8.75-million; and (ii) 333,334 units at the offering price for gross proceeds of up to $6.25-million.

Members of company management intend to subscribe for at least $1-million of units under the concurrent private placement.

Each unit will comprise one common share and one-fourth of one common share purchase warrant of the company. Each warrant shall be exercisable by the holder thereof to acquire one common share for a period of 24 months following the closing date (as hereinafter defined) at an exercise price of $23 per warrant share, subject to adjustment in certain events.

The company has applied to the Toronto Stock Exchange for the listing of the unit shares, warrants and warrant shares under the offering. The company intends to list the warrants provided the company is able to satisfy the distribution requirements for the warrants under the policies and rules of the TSX. There is no guarantee that the distribution requirements to list the warrants will be met.

The LIFE offering is being made to purchasers resident in all provinces of Canada, except Quebec, pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption from the prospectus requirement available under Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106, Prospectus Exemptions, and Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935, Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption, of the Canadian Securities Administrators. Subject to compliance with the terms of the LIFE, the unit shares and warrants offered under the LIFE will not be subject to resale restrictions pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. In addition, the agents may offer the units for sale on a private placement basis pursuant to available exemptions from the registration or prospectus requirements to investors resident in the United States and certain other jurisdictions outside of Canada and the United States, in each case, as agreed to by the company and the lead agent, provided it is understood that the company will not be required to register or make any filings (other than reports on sales of securities in the United States and Canada) in such jurisdictions.

There is an offering document related to this LIFE offering that can be accessed under the company's profile on SEDAR+ and on the company's website. Prospective investors should read this offering document before making an investment decision.

All units issued under the concurrent private placement will be issued in accordance with applicable securities laws pursuant to available exemptions from the prospectus requirements, including units issued to investors outside of Canada pursuant to Ontario Securities Commission Rule 72-503, Distributions Outside Canada, which will not be subject to resale restrictions pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. The closing of the LIFE offering is not conditional on the closing of the concurrent private placement and the closing of the concurrent private placement is not conditional on the closing of the LIFE offering.

The net proceeds of the offering will be used for investments in accordance with the company's investment principles and general corporate and working capital purposes.

The offering is expected to close on or about March 31, 2026, or such other date or dates as may be agreed to by the company and the lead agent, and is subject to certain conditions, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the TSX.

At the closing date, the company will pay to the agents a cash fee equal to 5.0 per cent of the gross proceeds raised in connection with the offering. The company may nominate purchasers for units under the concurrent private placement for up to $2-million. The agents shall not receive a commission for purchases of units under the president's list. The company shall pay the lead agent a corporate finance fee equal to $100,000 on the closing date.

The company anticipates certain insiders of the company will participate in the offering. Any participation in the offering by insiders constitutes a related party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101, Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions. However, the company expects to rely on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 based on the fact neither the fair market value of the units subscribed for by the insiders, nor the consideration for the units paid by such insiders, would exceed 25 per cent of the company's market capitalization as at the date of this news release.
