Message to Shareholders

George Liszicasz, President and CEO of NXT, commented: “While we pursue contracts for previously announced opportunities in Africa and South America, we have also focused on hydrocarbon and geothermal business development efforts with multiple NOC and IOC’s in Asia and Africa. We are pleased to report that a new generation of the SFD^® hydrocarbon sensors have allowed us to offer SFD^® surveys for development and exploitation, which have taken on an increasingly important role as producers respond to supply constraints in a post Covid environment disrupted by the Ukraine/Russian confrontation. At the same time, suspended exploration programs are being reactivated with a strong commitment by the industry to lower its environmental footprint. NXT has been invited to present SFD^® geothermal capabilities in recent meetings that should lead to survey opportunities. NXT’s patented and non-intrusive SFD^® airborne technology not only increases the drill success rates of its customers, but drastically reduces the negative environmental impact of traditional large-scale surface surveys.

SFD^® survey opportunities are increasing in the new international market environment which gives me strong confidence in our future success. The Company remains focused on contract execution in order to deliver value to its shareholders. On behalf of our Board of Directors and the entire team at NXT, I want to thank all of our shareholders for their continued support.”
