Vision Marine Technologies Announces Approval of Stock Repurchase Program

Alexandre Mongeon, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Vision Marine, commented:
"The Board of Directors recognizes the challenges faced by microcap stocks in the current market environment. While Vision Marine has made significant strides in the electrification of marine transportation, we believe our stock price does not accurately reflect the Company's value and long-term potential. We believe that the implementation of a stock repurchase program would take a strategic step to enhance shareholder value and demonstrate confidence in our vision to lead the industry with our industrialized, turnkey electric powertrain solutions."
