CHARBONE Announces Corporate Update Webinar and Market Maker Engagement

CHARBONE Corporation, a North American producer and distributor specializing in clean Ultra High Purity hydrogen and strategic industrial gases, has announced two significant corporate developments. The company will host a corporate update webinar on December 16, 2025, at 11:00am ET and has engaged Red Cloud Securities Inc. to provide market making services for its publicly traded securities.

The corporate update webinar will feature Chairman and CEO Dave Gagnon and CFO Benoit Veilleux. They will provide an overview of the company's operations, market insights on clean UHP hydrogen and other industrial gases, recent corporate achievements, and upcoming milestones. Interested investors and parties can register for the webinar at https://www.newmediawire.com/webinar-registration. Following the live presentation, there will be an allotted time for a Q&A session, with unaddressed questions reviewed by management afterward.

In a separate but concurrent development, CHARBONE has engaged Red Cloud Securities, established in 2011 and based in Toronto and Vancouver, to provide market making services. This engagement involves Red Cloud buying and selling CHARBONE securities to maintain a reasonable and consistent bid and offer spread for the company's common stock traded on the TSX Venture Exchange. The services will be rendered on a best-efforts basis by Mr. Adam Smith, who acts at arm's length to the company.

Under the terms of the agreement, Red Cloud will receive a fee of $5,000 per month, commencing December 1, 2025. The agreement will continue unless terminated by either party with no less than thirty days' notice. No stock options are being granted, and no other compensation is payable in connection with the engagement. The agreement is subject to regulatory approval. Red Cloud will use its own funds to execute trades and maintain a variable stock position in CHARBONE during its market making activities.

These announcements come as CHARBONE continues to develop its network of clean hydrogen production facilities throughout North America and select markets abroad, beginning with its flagship Sorel-Tracy project in Quebec. The company's integrated model aims to reduce risk, enhance scalability, and enable diversified revenue streams through partnerships in helium and other specialty gases. CHARBONE is committed to supporting the global transition to a lower-carbon economy by providing accessible, decentralized clean hydrogen and specialty gas solutions.

The market making engagement with Red Cloud represents a strategic move to enhance trading liquidity and market stability for CHARBONE's shares across multiple exchanges, including the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV: CH), OTC Markets (OTCQB: CHHYF), and Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE: K47). This service is particularly important for companies in emerging sectors like clean energy, where consistent market presence can support investor confidence and facilitate capital formation for growth initiatives.

The corporate update webinar provides an opportunity for stakeholders to gain direct insights into CHARBONE's progress in the competitive clean hydrogen market. As governments and industries worldwide accelerate their transition to lower-carbon energy sources, companies like CHARBONE that focus on Ultra High Purity hydrogen production are positioned at the forefront of this transformation. The combination of transparent corporate communication through the webinar and enhanced market liquidity through professional market making services reflects CHARBONE's commitment to maintaining strong relationships with its investor base while executing its business strategy.
