Item 2. Overall Performance and Description of Business
JEMTEC is incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada. The Company is the leading provider of integrated technology systems for community-based corrections in Canada. The Company's core business is the provision of services and technology for offender monitoring in Canadian federal and provincial correctional departments.
The common shares of JEMTEC Inc. trade through the facilities of the TSX-Venture Exchange under the symbol JTC.
JEMTEC's mission is to lead the Canadian criminal justice market by providing our customers integrated services and state-of-the-art technology systems. Our vital essence as a company is to make our society a better and safer place. Each of our technologies and programs is designed with this corporate mission in mind and we believe that working together with criminal justice professionals, we can help ensure public protection and the delivery of effective and accountable correctional services.
The management approach of offering different levels of technology allows corrections, courts and police to select from a variety of options ensuring the correct level of offender control at the lowest overall cost. Offender location detection/verification technologies include: offender reporting via telephone contact, offender reporting kiosks with integrated database, GPS active and passive tracking, voice verification, electronic monitoring house arrest systems, remote alcohol in-home monitoring and private monitoring services.
JEMTEC's business model is project driven. Since 1987, the Company has provided Canadian federal and provincial government agencies with offender monitoring services and technologies under project agreements with terms of 1 to 5 years.
Over the past year, most of the Company's agreements have been renewed and/or extended.
On March 5, 2015, Public Works and Government Services Canada ("PWGSC") confirmed that Jemtec's solution had been evaluated as the winning proposal to provide Correctional Services of Canada ("CSC") Electronic Monitoring services throughout Canada effective immediately for its Electronic Monitoring Research Pilot. The contract is for an initial three-year period with two additional one-year options selectable by CSC. In March 2020, PWGSC confirmed that it was going to exercise the additional (second) one-year option. In March 2020, following a competitive RFP process, PWGSC issued a new contract to Jemtec for one year with up to four additional one-year extensions. In March 2021, the current agreement

Revenues have increased by 1% during the quarter ended January 31, 2026 compared to the quarter ended January 31, 2025 primarily due to the expansion with the province of Saskatchewan. The Company earned revenues on its agreements with Saskatchewan, CSC, interest on cash balances and from private bail clients waiting release from court dates.
| Quarters Ended January 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | 2024 | |

| Total revenue | $ 455,174 | $ 452,076 | $ 418,549 |

In cases where the performance obligations are not satisfied at the reporting period date, the related revenue is deferred to future periods and recognized as the services are provided.
Equipment rental revenue is recognized over the term of the agreement based on daily or monthly rates. Equipment servicing and repair revenue is recognized at the time the service is provided. Revenues from the sale of parts and supplies required to service, repair and maintain equipment are recognized when control of the goods has been transferred, which occurs when the goods are delivered to the customer.
Replacement revenue is recognized at the time the goods are provided and control transfers to the customer, which is evidenced by the delivery of goods. Other revenue consists of miscellaneous services that are provided and invoiced monthly.

Management Discussion & Analysis
The usual term of customer contracts and agreements is one to seven years. Generally, customers have the option to renew or cancel the lease. Rental and service agreements upon the expiration of each term or, in certain other circumstances, may be cancelled upon specific notice provided to the Company. In situations where contracts and agreements are terminated, and the monitoring equipment is rented on a daily basis, it is returned to the Company with no further obligation on behalf of the customer.
Interest income is recorded when earned.
Direct costs
During the quarter ended January 31, 2026, direct costs increased by 9% compared to the quarter ended January 31, 2025 primarily due to the fluctuations in monitoring and activation fees, shipping and Travel.
| Category | Changes – fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2026 compared to fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Monitoring and activation fees | Decrease: CBSA program ended in Q1 2026. | |
| Shipping expenses | Increase: Replacement parts for Saskatchewan program. | |
| Travel | Increase: Travel to interface with CSC for services and testing. |
Expenses
During the quarter ended January 31, 2026, expenses decreased by 8% compared to the quarter ended January 31, 2025 primarily due to the fluctuations in accounting and administrative, salaries and benefits and share-based payments.
| Category | Changes – fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2026 compared to fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Accounting and administrative | Decrease: No additional fees for 2025 year end audit. | |

Item 6 and 7. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
At January 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,613,808 and working capital of $2,562,955. All cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with a Schedule I bank in Canada in current or interest accruing accounts.
| As at January 31, 2026 | As at July 31, 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Current assets | $ 2,910,324 | $ 2,770,857 |
| Non-current assets | 195,420 | 251,359 |
| Total assets | 3,105,744 | 3,022,216 |
| Current liabilities | 347,369 | 344,044 |
| Non-current liabilities | 116,483 | 165,472 |
| Total liabilities | 463,852 | 509,516 |
| Stockholders' equity | $ 2,641,892 | $ 2,512,700 |
| Working capital | $ 2,562,955 | $ 2,426,813 |
Working capital components include cash and cash equivalents in current or interest-bearing accounts, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, customer deposits, deferred revenue, income tax payable/recoverable and current portion of lease liabilities.
Accounts receivable and accounts payable are expected to increase or decrease as sales volumes change. Deferred revenue will fluctuate in relation to the Company's private bail project. Private bail clients typically pay in advance for one or more months' monitoring.
A combination of increase in revenues and direct costs and expenses resulted in a net income of $36,237 for the quarter ended January 31, 2026 after a tax provision of $14,600, compared to a net income of $42,299 for the quarter ended January 31, 2025 after a net tax expense of $16,000.
During its fiscal year ending July 31, 2026, the Company anticipates being in net income position from normal operations and any revenues or expenses resulting from an expansion of the Company's business or acquisition program.
The Company's management is not aware of any trends or other expected fluctuations in its liquidity that would create any deficiencies, except those that could arise from termination or cancellation of contracts. The Company's management believes that its cash balances will be sufficient to meet the Company's short-term goals and will continue to review long-term requirements as necessary for operations and planned growth.
Capital Requirements and Resources
The Company anticipates that it will have little need to acquire property and equipment over the next year. If the Company is required to purchase additional equipment to service an agreement, the Company would utilize its available cash to finance these capital expenditures.

Item 13. Changes in Accounting Policies and Future Accounting Changes
Certain pronouncements were issued by the IASB or the IFRIC that are mandatory for annual periods commencing on or after January 1, 2025. The following have not yet been adopted and are being evaluated to determine their impact on the Company.
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
IFRS 18 introduces three sets of new requirements to give investors more transparent and comparable information about companies' financial performance for better investment decisions.
- Three defined categories for income and expenses—operating, investing and financing—to improve the structure of the income statement, and require all companies to provide new defined subtotals, including operating profit.
- Requirement for companies to disclose explanations of management-defined performance measures (MPMs) that are related to the income statement.
- Enhanced guidance on how to organize information and whether to provide it in the primary financial statements or in the notes.
This new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.
Item 14. Financial Instruments and Other Instruments
Details of the Company's financial instruments, management's assessment of their related risks and details of management of those risks are as follows:
Financial Risk Management
The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's risk management framework. The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities (excluding government service tax liabilities).
The Company maintains cash deposits with financial institutions, which, from time to time, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk from cash. At January 31, 2026, the Company had $2,613,808 in cash balances.
The fair values of the Company's financial instruments approximate their book values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Financial Instruments Risk Exposure
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks. The Board approves and monitors the risk management processes. The Company does not have any asset backed commercial paper.
Credit Risk
The Company's main exposure to credit risk is on its bank accounts. All cash balances are held in a Canadian Schedule I bank.
Page 8
JEMTEC Inc.
Management Discussion & Analysis
Liquidity Risk
The Company's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to settle obligations and liabilities when due. As at January 31, 2026, the Company had cash of $2,613,808 to settle $347,369 in current liabilities, which fall due for payment within twelve months of the statement of financial position.
The Company's cash is invested in business accounts which are available on demand.
Market Risk
The market risk exposure to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk. The Company's bank account earns interest income at variable rates. The Company's future interest income is exposed to short-term rate fluctuations. This is not a significant risk to the Company.
Foreign Exchange Risk
As at January 31, 2026, all of the Company's cash balances were held in Canada in Canadian dollars. As a result, the Company's exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on cash is limited.
