Arizona Tribune - Luminar Media Group - Fortun - Provides General Business Update on Corporate Initiatives

Corporate Name and Ticker Symbol Alignment
The Company expects to implement its previously disclosed corporate name change and ticker symbol change in the near term. Any related ticker symbol change will remain subject to applicable approvals, regulatory processing, and customary public disclosure.

At this time, the Company notes that no reverse stock split is being undertaken concurrently with the contemplated name and ticker symbol change.

Registration Statement Process Update
As previously disclosed, the Company has confidentially submitted a draft registration statement (DRS) on Form S-1 to the SEC for review. The Company received the initial SEC response on February 10^th, 2026. The review process is ongoing. Because the submission remains nonpublic at this stage, the Company does not intend to provide further comment regarding that process except as may be required by applicable law or in connection with any future public filing.

A draft submission for nonpublic review does not appear on EDGAR unless and until the registration statement is publicly filed.

Audit and Year-End Financial Reporting Update
The Company previously announced that audited financial statements for fiscal years 2023 and 2024 were completed and included in its initial confidential registration statement submission materials.

As part of the ongoing review process, audited financial statements for fiscal year 2025 will also be required for inclusion in the registration statement materials.

The Company is currently working with its independent auditors to complete the 2025 audit. However, because this period coincides with a high volume of reporting deadlines for many issuers and service providers, the Company has been advised by its auditor that completion may occur later, with the current expectation being no later than the end of April 2026, although timing remains subject to change.

Accordingly, the Company currently expects to file its fiscal year 2025 year-end disclosure with OTC Markets by the March 31, 2026 deadline in accordance with the OTC Markets Alternative Reporting Standard under which the Company currently reports. If the initial filing is submitted on an unaudited basis, the Company expects to subsequently amend or supplement that disclosure once the audit is completed.

Upon completion of the audit, the Company intends to update its disclosure record and any registration statement materials as appropriate. Timing remains subject to completion of audit procedures and the SEC review process.

Board Composition and Governance
As previously announced, the Company appointed Juan M. Sese as Chief Financial Officer.

In addition, the Company is actively evaluating executive and board-level candidates as part of its broader governance planning. Board questionnaires and related diligence processes have been initiated in coordination with counsel as the Company assesses potential director candidates, including individuals who may satisfy independence standards applicable to a national securities exchange.

Any such appointments, if made, will be publicly announced through the Company's standard disclosure channels.

Credit Facility Initiative
The Company recently disclosed that it is exploring the establishment of a potential credit facility or line of credit. Any such financing, if obtained, would be intended to supplement, and not alter, the Company's previously announced business strategy.

Management stated that the primary objective of such a facility would be to provide additional non-dilutive capital that could expand the Company's capacity to fund small-business receivables through its platform. There can be no assurance that any such facility will be obtained or, if obtained, on what terms.

Management Commentary
Management stated that the Company is focused on its ongoing operations and on the evaluation and execution of previously disclosed corporate initiatives, subject to applicable approvals and market conditions. Except as described above, the Company is not announcing any additional material corporate developments at this time.
