Pineapple Financial Inc.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of February 28, 2026.

Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of February 28, 2026 due to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below.

Management has identified a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to insufficient segregation of duties within the finance function, primarily due to a limited number of personnel responsible for financial reporting and accounting functions.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Notwithstanding the material weakness described above, management believes that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
