CAUTIONARY NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) filed by Borealis Foods Inc. (the “Company” or “Borealis Foods”, “our”, “us” or “we”) contains statements that are forward-looking and as such are not historical facts. This includes, without limitation, statements regarding the financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations. These statements constitute projections, forecasts, and forward-looking statements, and are not guarantees of performance. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this Quarterly Report, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. When we discuss our strategies or plans, we are making projections, forecasts, or forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the beliefs of, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to, Borealis Foods’ management.

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

●our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern;
●our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects;
●our potential insolvency or inability to pay our debts would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow;
●we may be unable to execute our business plan or maintain our competitive position and high-level customer satisfaction if we fail to maintain adequate operational and financial resources or fail to obtain additional financing, particularly if we continue to grow rapidly;
●we have a substantial debt burden, a significant portion of which matures soon and requires repayment or refinancing;
●our management team has limited experience managing a public company;
●we are an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, we are subject to all the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies;
●we have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting; if we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, investors could lose confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our Common Shares;
●a significant portion of our revenue is concentrated with a limited number of customers;
●adverse climate conditions may have an adverse effect on our business. We may take various actions to mitigate our business risks associated with climate change, which may require us to incur substantial costs and may not be successful, due to, among other things, the uncertainty associated with the longer-term projections associated with managing climate risks;
●our dependence on suppliers may materially adversely affect our operating results and financial position;
●manufacturing and production forecasts are based on multiple assumptions. We must adequately estimate our manufacturing capacity and inventory supply. If we overestimate our demand and overbuild our capacity or inventory, we may have significantly underutilized assets. Underutilization of our manufacturing facilities can adversely affect our gross margin and other operating results;
●our business operations and financial results could be adversely affected by changes in trade policies, including the imposition of new tariffs or trade restrictions by the U.S. government. With tariffs and other trade barriers between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico and other jurisdictions, our sales, profitability, and competitive position in those markets could be negatively impacted;
●we may experience volatility in costs for ingredients and packaging due to conditions that are difficult to predict;
●our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to maintain our technological leadership, enhance our current food products, develop new food products that meet changing customer needs and preferences, advertise and market our food products, and influence and respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes on a timely and cost-effective basis;
●our business depends on our use of proprietary technology relying heavily on laws to protect such technology;
●U.S. shareholders may not be able to obtain judgments or enforce civil liabilities against us or our executive officers or our Board of Directors (our “Board”);
●we will incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives; and
●other risk factors and uncertainties described in this Quarterly Report, our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and other filings with the SEC.

We urge investors to consider all of the risks, uncertainties, and other factors disclosed in this filing carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report. We cannot assure you that the results or developments anticipated by us and reflected or implied by any forward-looking statement contained in this report will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that those results or developments will result in the forecasted or expected consequences for us or affect us, our operations or financial performance as we forecasted or expected. These forward looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this Quarterly Report and current expectations, forecasts, and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks, and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. We intend the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the “Securities Act”, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the “Exchange Act”.

As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, our actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.
