The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto (the "Interim Financial Statements") of the Company for the three months ended April 30, 2025, which were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34") using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and the annual audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended January 31, 2025, and the notes related thereto (the "Annual Financial Statements"), which were in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

Caplink is classified as a Capital Pool Company ("CPC") as defined under TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") Policy 2.4. As a CPC, the Company's primary business objective is to identify and evaluate assets or businesses with the intention of completing a Qualifying Transaction. Until a Qualifying Transaction is completed, the Company will not carry on any active business operations, will not generate significant revenue and will incur expenditures primarily related to the evaluation of potential Qualifying Transactions, TSXV listing and regulatory requirements, professional services and general administrative expenses, all subject to the restrictions under TSXV Policy 2.4.

The Company's common shares trade on the Tier 2 of the TSXV under the symbol "CAPL.P". The Company is a reporting issuer in the provinces of British Columbia, Ontario and Alberta.

Results of Operations

Caplink has not commenced business operations and currently has no assets other than cash. Its sole objective, as a CPC, is to identify, evaluate, and acquire or merge with a viable business or asset in order to complete a Qualifying Transaction. The Company continues to devote its resources toward sourcing and assessing potential opportunities that meet the TSXV's criteria for a Qualifying Transaction.

Three months ended April 30, 2025 (Q1 2026) compared with three months ended April 30, 2024 (Q1 2025)

For Q1 2026 and Q1 2025, the Company reported net losses of $17,903 and $12,391, respectively. These losses are consistent with the expected expenditures of a CPC and primarily reflect general and administrative expenses. Key expense categories include office and rent costs, audit and accounting fees, legal fees, and regulatory and transfer agent fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has financed its operations to date through equity issuances, including seed capital and its initial public offering. The Company manages liquidity risk by seeking to ensure, to the extent reasonably possible, that it maintains adequate capital to meet ongoing operational and working capital requirements, as well as to support its objective of completing a Qualifying Transaction.

Caplink Ventures Inc.
MD&A – Three months ended April 30, 2025
Page 3


As at April 30, 2025, the Company had working capital of $185,271 (January 31, 2025 – $203,174) and cash of $207,273 (January 31, 2025 – $224,068). The decrease in working capital of $17,903 during the first quarter of 2026 reflects operating expenditures incurred in the period, including office and general expenses, legal fees, audit and accounting and regulatory and transfer agent fees.

Management believes the Company has sufficient working capital to fund its general and administrative expenses and pursue its business objectives over the next twelve months. However, circumstances may arise that warrant a reallocation of funds to better support the Company's strategic priorities. Additional financing may also be required to fund transaction-related costs or capital requirements associated with a Qualifying Transaction. While the Company anticipates that any such funding would be obtained through the issuance of additional securities, there is no assurance that financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

Cash Flow Highlights

Cash used in operating activities for Q1 2026 was $16,795, compared to $18,672 in Q1 2025. The decrease primarily reflects slightly lower general and administrative expenditures associated with the Company's ongoing operations as a CPC.

No financing and investing activities were undertaken during either Q1 2026 or Q1 2025.

As at April 30, 2025, the Company's contractual obligations and commitments consisted primarily of short-term accounts payable and accrued liabilities totaling $22,002 (January 31, 2025 – $20,894).

Management remains committed to securing additional capital, as needed, to meet the Company's financial obligations and to support the successful completion of a Qualifying Transaction. While the Company continues to actively assess financing opportunities, it believes that its existing capital resources are sufficient to fund its operating requirements and advance its business objectives over the next twelve months. Management will continue to monitor the Company's financial position closely and remains prepared to adjust its capital strategy in response to evolving market conditions and transaction related needs.

Capital Management

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, including the preservation of capital, and to achieve reasonable returns on invested cash after satisfying the objective of preserving capital.

The Company's primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure that it has sufficient cash resources to fund the identification and evaluation of potential acquisitions. To secure the additional capital necessary to pursue these plans, the Company may raise additional funds through the issuance of equity.

The Company is currently subject to Exchange restrictions related to cash. The Company, therefore,

MD&A – Three months ended April 30, 2025

also manages its capital by maintaining a low level of expenditures until completion of the Qualifying Transaction.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company had no material off-balance sheet arrangements as at April 30, 2025, and as at the date of this MD&A, that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the financial performance or financial condition of the Company.

Transactions with Related Parties

Transaction with a related party during the three months ended April 30, 2025 consisted of rent of $3,800 (2024 - $3,000) paid to the Company's director and corporate secretary.

The related party transaction was in the ordinary course of business and was conducted on terms substantially similar to arm's length transactions.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to exercise judgment and to make estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are continually evaluated for reasonableness and relevancy. Where revisions to accounting estimates are required, they are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised for the current as well as future periods that are affected.

Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are described in note 2 to the Annual Financial Statements.

New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has performed an assessment of new standards issued by the IASB that are not yet effective and has determined that any new standards that have been issued would have no or very minimal impact on the Company's financial statements.

Financial Instruments

As at April 30, 2025, the Company's financial instruments consist of cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate fair value due to

Caplink Ventures Inc.

MD&A – Three months ended April 30, 2025

Page 5


their immediate or short-term maturity. The Company does not have any financial instruments classified under level 2 or level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

As at April 30, 2025, the Company did not have any financial instruments subject to significant credit or interest rate risks. The Company employs risk management strategies and policies to ensure that any exposures to risk are in compliance with the Company's business objectives and risk tolerance levels.

The Company manages liquidity risk through its capital management. The Company's accounts payable are due within 12 months. As at April 30, 2025, the Company had a cash balance of $207,273 (January 31, 2025 - $224,068) to settle liabilities of $22,002 (January 31, 2025 – $20,894).

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to other risks and uncertainties that may have a material adverse effect on the Company's assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, and cash flows and the future trading price of the common shares. The Company's continued operation is dependent upon its ability to complete a Transaction. The Company has limited funds with which to identify and evaluate potential assets or businesses. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify a business or asset that warrants acquisition. Further, the completion of a Qualifying Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to, completion of due diligence procedures by parties to the transaction, negotiation of a definitive agreement, satisfaction of conditions negotiated therein and receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. There is no assurance that a Qualifying Transaction will be completed. If the Company does not complete a Qualifying Transaction within the time permitted by the TSXV, its common shares may be suspended from trading or delisted. For additional risk factors, please refer to the Company's Prospectus dated August 5, 2022.
