INTELLISTAKE ANNOUNCES INVESTMENT IN TOKENIZED SECURITIES TECHNOLOGY COMPANY AND EXPRESSION OF INTEREST INTO CSA PROJECT TOKENIZATION

Intellistake Technologies Corp. has arranged an intended $150,000 (U.S.) investment in a technology company developing infrastructure designed to support the tokenization of publicly listed securities. The share purchase agreement was signed on Jan. 26, 2026.

Key highlights:

• Intellistake announces an intended $150,000 (U.S.) investment in a technology company developing infrastructure for tokenized representations of publicly listed equities.
• The investment aligns with Intellistake's strategy as a technology company operating at the infrastructure layer of digital capital markets, aiming to apply blockchain technology beyond experimental use cases.
• Intellistake has submitted an expression of interest to participate in Project Tokenization, a regulatory initiative led by the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA).
• The CSA initiative reflects Intellistake's long-term objective to explore a legal and regulatory pathway for Canadian public company shares to be placed on chain (represented and managed using blockchain-based digital infrastructure).
• The CSA initiative is early stage and exploratory, with a focus on technology development, regulatory engagement and shareholder education.

The technology company states that it is bridging tokenized equities with decentralized finance (defi) and building an open, efficient and inclusive financial ecosystem.

Jason Dussault, chief executive officer of Intellistake, commented: "In my view, the tokenization of public equities is not wishful thinking, nor is it a distant future concept. At Intellistake, our long-standing vision has been to leverage blockchain technology for investors who prefer decentralized systems over traditional, intermediated markets. The company we have identified possesses, in our opinion, the legal and strategic framework necessary to make this possible internationally. We look forward to working with this company to explore if tokenization can be brought to Canada and this will be part of expression of interest that has been submitted into the process with the Canadian Securities Administrators.

For Intellistake, tokenization represents a technology-led evolution of capital markets infrastructure, rather than a consumer-facing financial product. Tokenization refers to the representation of ownership rights to traditional financial assets using distributed ledger technology (DLT). When securities are placed on chain, ownership records and transactions are represented and managed using blockchain-based digital systems rather than traditional paper-based or centralized databases.

Intellistake's focus is on the infrastructure layer: the software, systems and controls that enable traditional public-market assets to interact with blockchain-based networks in a compliant, auditable and resilient manner. The technology company states that its infrastructure embeds compliance rules, custom ownership structures and audit capabilities directly into smart contracts, supporting regulated market use cases.

Interest in tokenization continues to grow as financial institutions and regulators examine how digital infrastructure can modernize legacy market systems.

In parallel with this investment, Intellistake has submitted an expression of interest to participate in Project Tokenization, a regulatory initiative launched by the Canadian Securities Administrators. There can be no assurance that the company will be accepted into Project Tokenization. Project Tokenization is designed to examine how tokenized financial products intersect with Canadian securities laws, supporting informed and co-ordinated regulatory responses to innovation while maintaining investor protection and market integrity. The investment is expected to be completed before the end of January, 2026, and is not contingent on the results of the Project Tokenization process.

The initiative provides a structured environment for stakeholder engagement, issue mapping, targeted research and regulatory learning, allowing participants to explore emerging technologies in collaboration with regulators.

This announcement reflects an early-stage, exploratory initiative. Intellistake looks forward to providing updates as this work progresses, subject to continuing regulatory engagement and further developments.
