VSBLTY ANNOUNCES DELAY IN FILING ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

PHILADELPHIA, PA., May 1, 2024 --VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (the "Company" or "VSBLTY") (OTCQB: VSBGF) (CSE: VSBY) (Frankfurt 5VS), a leading software provider of security and retail analytics technology, announces that its annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, including the related management discussion and analysis, and CEO and CFO certifications (collectively, the "Annual Financial Filings") were not filed by the required filing deadline of April 29, 2024 (the "Filing Deadline").

The Company's auditors require additional time to complete their audit due to certain complex transactions that the Company entered into during the 2023 financial year, and as a result, the Annual Financial Filings were not filed on or before the Filing Deadline.

The Company is working on the steps required to complete the Annual Financial Filings and expects to be able to file the Annual Financial Filings by May 30, 2024. The Company will provide updates as further information relating to the Annual Financial Filings becomes available.

The Company has applied to the applicable securities regulatory authorities and received a management cease trade order ("MCTO") imposed against the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company precluding them from trading securities of the Company. The MCTO will be in effect until the Annual Financial Filings are filed and requires that the Annual Financial Filings be filed on or before June 28, 2024.

Until the Annual Financial Filings are filed, the Company intends to issue bi-weekly default status reports in accordance with National Policy 12-203 - Management Cease Trade Orders. The Company intends to satisfy the provisions of the Alternative Information Guidelines during the period it remains in default of the filing requirements. The Company confirms that there is no other material information relating to its affairs that has not been generally disclosed.

On Behalf of the Board of VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp.
