This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s Class A common shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker “DOGZ.”

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until April 19, 2027 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the closing bid price per share of the Company’s Class A common shares is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed, although Nasdaq may, in its discretion, require the Company to satisfy the requirement for a longer period, generally no more than 20 consecutive business days.

In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by April 19, 2027, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180-calendar-day compliance period. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its Class A common shares and may, if appropriate, consider available options to regain compliance.

Multimodal AI company NC AI announced the official release of its generative AI platform, VARCO Sound, on the 20th. Users can easily generate and edit scene-appropriate audio using text, images, and videos. VARCO Sound is designed to help developers and producers who are unfamiliar with sound design bring their creative ideas to life with high-quality soundtracks.

Users can also access the web version of VARCO Sound by signing up on the official website.

NC AI also announced a promotion for VARCO Sound and the AI 3D generator VARCO 3D, running until Nov. 30 following the release. The offer supports continued creation by making AI-based content generation tools more accessible and is available to both new members and existing members who have been using the free version.

Users who make their first purchase during the promotion can receive a 50% discount on the first month of their subscription. Additional bonus points will also be provided, with higher-tier subscriptions receiving even more points. This offer is available once per account for VARCO Sound and VARCO 3D each.

Events will also be held in the official VARCO Discord community. Users who join through the dedicated links provided in each service announcement can enjoy one month of free access to the VARCO 3D Plus plan or the VARCO Sound Lite plan. The first 100 users to join the community will receive the exclusive “VARCO OG” title. In addition, the top five users who share game assets created with VARCO 3D in the community will be selected to receive service credits and titles. Event periods and participation details are available in the Discord announcements for each service

VARCO Sound is a comprehensive platform that allows users to generate and fine-tune audio tracks for content such as games, videos, and animations. Users can describe the desired audio through text or upload an image or video, and the AI analyzes the input to generate scene-appropriate Foley sounds, sound effects, ambient audio, and more.

The tool’s most unique feature is its ability to provide separate tracks for each audio source rather than a single audio file. Users can check each track individually, adjust its volume, or replace specific sound effects to further polish the result and better realize their creative vision.

In addition, the “Variation” feature allows users to build on their existing work. Users can upload an original sample to generate variations while preserving its texture and nuance. This substantially reduces the time required to refine ideas and develop prototypes.

The entire generation and editing process can be conducted through natural language using the conversational AI “Sound Agent.” A simple description of the desired outcome is analyzed by the AI agent, which automatically applies the appropriate features, lowering the entry barrier for new users.

Furthermore, VARCO Sound comes with an automatic volume mixer feature that prevents sounds from clashing when multiple tracks are played simultaneously. The AI examines and adjusts the volume balance between different tracks so that no sound is too loud or too quiet.

Currently, the maximum length of an audio file that can be generated is 60 seconds, and NC AI plans to continue improving the tool’s performance to support video inputs of up to 120 seconds.

NC AI has also released a desktop application and a Unity plugin that allows the tool to seamlessly integrate into the existing workflows of creators. Assets created through the desktop application can be dragged and dropped into other DAWs for immediate use. A personalized library search feature based on natural language and audio will be added in the future to further streamline each user’s workflow.

Moreover, the Unity plugin was selected as a Unity Verified Solution, demonstrating its performance and compatibility. The plugin allows game developers to stay within the Unity engine while creating audio tracks using just text and images and immediately apply them to their projects using the built-in editing tools.

NC AI’s CEO Yeonsoo Lee said, “VARCO Sound has evolved into an ‘AI platform designed for professional needs’ that boosts creators’ efficiency without disrupting their existing workflows.” Yeonsoo Lee added, “We will establish a new paradigm in the global audio creation ecosystem through continuous technological advancement and seamless integration with a wide range of external platforms.”

Building on the legacy of Apex 300, the latest Apex 200 extends the Apex series’ modular versatility into a more portable 2.5kWh-class format—allowing users to start small with essential home backup and scale up as their power needs evolve.

It combines 2,560Wh of LFP capacity with a 3.2kW–3.6kW standalone AC output (up to 3.6kW under select conditions); compatible expansion batteries can take a single unit up to 33.28kWh, while three units in parallel can reach up to 6kW and approximately 100kWh of total storage.

Apex 200 packs this combination of capacity, output, and expansion into a sleek 27kg (36.5L) enclosure, with 10 output ports—including four individually controllable smart AC outlets, a dedicated TT-30R RV port, and a 12V/30A Anderson port—for flexible use across home, RV, and off-grid settings.

“The Apex Series is rooted in a simple promise: people don’t have to overinvest upfront to secure high-performance energy,” said James Ray, Marketing Director at BLUETTI. “Apex 200 is our latest response, bringing the versatility of a full-featured, expandable power system into a more compact, portable format. Users can start small and scale as their needs grow.” 

From Essential Backup to Whole-Home Resilience

At the essential-backup level, Apex 200’s 3.2kW standalone output can support selected 120V loads such as refrigeration, lighting, Wi-Fi, and home connectivity. Adding B300K/B500K series expansion batteries extends runtime for longer outages, while a fully expanded single unit can reach up to 33.28kWh. For larger backup needs, up to three fully expanded Apex 200 systems can be configured in parallel via HUB A1, with up to 6kW of output and approximately 100kWh of total storage.

For extended outages, up to 3,000W of solar input helps replenish the system and extend runtime. Apex 200 also brings a first for BLUETTI with four independently controllable smart AC outlets. Through the BLUETTI App, users can switch each outlet remotely, set schedules, or apply SOC-based controls, making it easier to direct available power to priority loads.

Plug-and-Go for RV, Camping & Off-Grid Life

Tailored for life on the move, the Apex 200 features a built-in TT-30R port for travel trailers and a high-draw 12V/30A Anderson port to run DC appliances directly without conversion losses. For boondocking and extended road trips, Apex 200 can be paired with portable solar panels such as SORA 500 and Charger 2, the alternator & solar dual charger, to help restore power while driving on the road.

Apex 200 Early Access Open Now

Early-access registration for the Apex 200 portable power station is now open through November 4. Subscribers will get first access to early-bird pricing details ahead of launch and can also spin for purchase-redeemable rewards. Final pricing will be announced when the Apex 200 officially launches in the U.S. on November 5.

Cautionary Statements
This release includes certain statements and information that may constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect the expectations or beliefs of management of the Company regarding future events. Generally, forward-looking statements and information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “expects”, “plans”, “estimates”, “projects”, “pipeline”, “run rate”, “demand”, “will”, “intends” or “anticipates”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “should”, “would” or “occur”. This information and these statements, referred to herein as “forward‐looking statements”, are not historical facts, are made as of the date of this news release and include without limitation, statements regarding: the closing of the LIFE Offering and the receipt of CSE approval; the potential payment of finder’s fees; the intended use of proceeds; the Company’s annualized run-rate revenue; anticipated customer demand, including expected unit demand over the next 90 days and the Company’s pipeline of demand into 2027; the Company’s ability to fulfil existing and anticipated orders, including the 10,000-unit order under its Saudi Arabian agreement; the expected performance of, and revenue and minimum purchase commitments under, the Company’s distribution and B2B agreements; the Company’s pipeline of prospective distribution agreements and B2B contracts and its ability to conclude them; the Company’s plans to accelerate global expansion and grow its distribution network; and the development and timing of completion of the refrigerated VIVI Med, the VIVI Box and the VIVI Cap Smart application.

This news release contains a financial outlook within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws, namely the Company’s annualized run-rate revenue of approximately US$5.5 million. The run rate is calculated by annualizing the Company’s average monthly sales for July and August 2026 and assumes monthly sales continue at that level; it is not a forecast of annual revenue. Management approved this financial outlook as of the date of this news release. It is provided to give readers information about management’s current expectations regarding the Company’s sales trajectory, and readers are cautioned that it may not be appropriate for other purposes. Sales figures in this news release are preliminary, unaudited and based on management’s internal records, and are subject to change upon completion of the Company’s financial statements and related review procedures.

In making the forward-looking statements in this news release, the Company has applied certain material assumptions, including without limitation: that the Company will receive all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the CSE; that the conditions to closing the LIFE Offering will be satisfied; that the proceeds of the LIFE Offering will be used as currently anticipated; that customer demand for the Company’s products will continue at or above current levels and that indicated demand will convert into firm orders; that the Company’s distribution and B2B partners will perform their obligations under their agreements, including any minimum purchase commitments, and will not terminate those agreements; that the Company will be able to source, manufacture and deliver sufficient inventory on a timely basis and at anticipated cost; that prospective distribution agreements and B2B contracts in the Company’s pipeline will be concluded on anticipated terms and timing; that product development will be completed on schedule and within budget and that any required regulatory registrations or clearances will be obtained; that there will be no material adverse change in economic, regulatory, political or market conditions in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates or sells, including the Middle East; that foreign exchange rates will remain stable; and that the Company will retain its key personnel and obtain the financing required to fund its growth.

These forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties, and actual results might differ materially from results suggested in any forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, among other things: that the LIFE Offering may not close as anticipated or at all, or may raise less than the maximum amount; that the Company may not receive the required regulatory approvals; that unforeseen events may cause the Company to reallocate the proceeds of the LIFE Offering; that monthly sales results are not necessarily indicative of future results, that record sales months may not recur and that the Company’s run-rate revenue may not be achieved; that anticipated demand and the Company’s pipeline may not materialize, may be smaller than expected or may be delayed; that distribution and B2B partners may fail to perform, may not meet minimum purchase commitments or may terminate or not renew their agreements, and that the Company depends on a limited number of partners for a significant portion of its sales; that the Company may be unable to scale its manufacturing, supply chain and working capital quickly enough to fulfil orders, resulting in lost or delayed sales; that product development may be delayed, may cost more than anticipated or may not succeed, and that new products may require regulatory clearance before sale; risks associated with international expansion, including regulatory compliance in foreign jurisdictions, geopolitical instability and foreign exchange exposure; competition; changes in healthcare regulation or reimbursement; reliance on key personnel; and the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms. Additional risk factors are described in the Company’s most recent management’s discussion and analysis and other continuous disclosure documents available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Although management of the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements or 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 statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and forward-looking information. Readers are cautioned that reliance on such information may not be appropriate for other purposes. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement, forward-looking information or financial outlook contained in this news release, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable securities laws.
