Goodfood Announces Bitcoin Treasury Strategy

The Company has completed an initial Bitcoin investment of approximately $1 million through a spot Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) and plans to strategically increase holdings by investing part of future excess cash flows in Bitcoin.“Accumulating Bitcoin aligns with our long-term focus on value creation, protects against inflation and rising food costs, and leverages its potential as digital capital,” said Jonathan Ferrari, Goodfood's Chief Executive Officer.“Goodfood is proud to join the ranks of public companies holding Bitcoin on their balance sheet.”

Investment Rationale

Economic Climate Persistent economic volatility and inflation have impacted the Canadian dollar's purchasing power. By adopting Bitcoin, Goodfood aims to hedge against fiat currency depreciation and safeguard long-term value. The Canadian dollar has lost 23% of its purchasing power in the last 5 years and 83% of its purchasing power in the past 50 years when accounting for inflation.

Long-Term Value Bitcoin's fixed supply and increasing adoption make it a compelling store of value with strong potential for capital appreciation.

Innovation Alignment Goodfood, as a digitally native company, reinforces its commitment to innovation and financial resilience through its Bitcoin strategy.
