COMPANY OVERVIEW

The Company was incorporated on January 29, 2021 under the laws of British Columbia. The address of the Company's corporate office and its principal place of business is 208A - 980 West 1st Street, North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

The Company currently has no operating business and is a Capital Pool Company as defined in the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX.V") Policy 2.4. The principal business of the Company is the identification and evaluation of assets or businesses with a view to completing a Qualifying Transaction under Policy 2.4.

On August 23, 2022, the Company successfully completed its initial public offering (the "IPO") and issued 2,500,000 shares of the Company at a price of $0.10 per share for proceeds of $250,000. The Company's common shares were listed on the TSX.V effective August 23, 2022, with its common shares commencing trading on the TSX.V on August 25, 2022 under the trading symbol "HIDE.P".

QUALIFYING TRANSACTION

On August 30, 2024, the Company entered into an amalgamation agreement (the "Amalgamation Agreement"), which was amended on October 16, 2024 and December 13, 2024, with 1491386 BC Ltd. ("Hydaway Sub") and DMT Digital Corp., a company incorporated in British Columbia ("DMT"), whereby the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of DMT (the "DMT Shares") by means of a "three-cornered amalgamation" (the "Acquisition") whereby Hydaway Sub and DMT will amalgamate and continue as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Acquisition is intended to serve as the Company's proposed qualifying transaction (the "Qualifying Transaction"). Upon completion of the Qualifying Transaction, the Company anticipates it will be a Tier 2 industrial issuer on the TSX.V.

Pursuant to the Amalgamation Agreement, each shareholder of DMT (each, a "DMT Shareholder" and collectively, the "DMT Shareholders") immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition (the "Closing") will receive one common share (a "Common Share") in the capital of the Company for every one DMT Share held. 2,000,001 of the Company's shares and 275,000 of the Company's stock options issued prior to the Closing will be held in escrow and released as to 25% on the issuance of the Final Exchange Bulletin ("Initial CPC Escrow Release") and an additional 25% each on the dates 6 months, 12 months and 18 months following the Initial CPC Escrow Release.

In addition, the Common Shares issued to the DMT Shareholders will be subject to voluntary restrictions on resale, of which 20% of the Common Shares will be released on the date that is one month following Closing and an additional 20% of the Common Shares will be released every month thereafter. The voluntary restrictions on resale do not apply to DMT Shareholders holding less than 5,000 Common Shares immediately following the Closing.

The warrantholders of DMT immediately prior to Closing (the "DMT Warrantholders") will receive one Common Share purchase warrant (the "Warrant") for every one DMT Share purchase warrant (a "DMT Warrant") held, and each DMT Warrantholder will receive Warrants exercisable to acquire such number of Common Shares as is equal to the number of DMT Shares issuable under each such DMT Warrant at an exercise price equal to the exercise price of such DMT Warrant until the expiry date of such DMT Warrant.

1,973,500 Common Shares and 1,750,000 Warrants issued to certain DMT Shareholders and a certain DMT Warrantholder on Closing will be held in escrow and released as to 10% on the issuance of the Final Exchange Bulletin (the "Initial Value Escrow Release") and an additional 15% each on the dates 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months, 30 months and 36 months following the Initial Value Escrow Release.

The Company will complete a private placement (the "Concurrent Private Placement") of a minimum of 5,000,000 Common Shares and a maximum of 10,000,000 at a price of $0.10 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds of a minimum of $500,000 and a maximum of $1,000,000, concurrently with or prior to Closing. Subject to exchange approval, the Company may pay a finder's fee in cash, Common Shares or Warrants in connection with the Concurrent Private Placement.

The Qualifying Transaction is subject to the approval of the DMT Shareholders, the acceptance by TSX.V, the completion of the Concurrent Private Placement and the satisfaction of other customary conditions. The Qualifying Transaction is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES

During the nine months ended November 30, 2024, the Company issued 250,000 common shares pursuant to the exercise of Agent's warrants for total gross proceeds of $25,000. $13,445 was transferred from reserves to share capital as a result.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As at November 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $68,003 and a working capital of $70,010. During the nine months ended November 30, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $102,963 and cash provided by financing activity was $25,000 which consisted of proceeds from exercise of warrants.

The Company's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain a flexible capital structure that optimizes the costs of capital within a framework of acceptable risk. In the management of capital, the Company includes the components of shareholders' equity as well as cash. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may issue new shares, issue debt, acquire or dispose of assets or adjust the amount of cash. The Company is dependent on the capital markets as its primary source of operating working capital and the Company's capital resources are largely determined by its ability to compete for investor support of its projects.

The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in

the normal course of business. At November 30, 2024, the Company had accumulated losses of $256,809 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional capital to complete the acquisition of an asset or business and the achievement of profitable operations. These factors indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Related parties may be individuals or corporate entities. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

SIGNIFICANT JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. These financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Significant assumptions about the future and other sources of estimation uncertainty that management has made at the financial position reporting date, that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event that actual results differ from assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to, the following:

Significant accounting estimates

i. the measurement of deferred income tax assets and liabilities
ii. the determination of fair value for share-based payments related to incentive stock options and compensation warrants granted, modified or settled

Significant accounting judgments

i. the evaluation of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern

NEW STANDARD AND INTERPRETATIONS NOT YET ADOPTED

The Company has performed an assessment of new standards issued by the IASB that are not yet effective. The Company has assessed that the impact of adopting these accounting standards on its financial statements would not be significant.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

For further information the reader should refer to the Venture Issuer Basic Certificates filed by the Company with the Interim Filings on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company is currently subject to financial and regulatory risks. The financial risk is derived from the uncertainty pertaining to the Company's ability to raise capital to continue operations. Regulatory risks include the possible delays in getting regulatory approval for the transactions that the Board of Directors believe to be in the best interest of the Company, and include increased fees for filings and the introduction of ever more complex reporting requirements, the cost of which the Company must meet in order to maintain its exchange listing.

The Company does not currently have an operating business. Where an acquisition or participation is warranted, funding in addition to the IPO funding may be required. These additional funds may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company. There is no assurance that the Company will complete an acquisition of business or asset within the time limitations permissible under the policies of the TSX.V, at which time the TSX.V may suspend or de-list the Company's shares from trading.
