("374Water" or the "Company"), participated in an interview on Proactive Investors. The following is an excerpt from the video segment: Question: Lastly Steve, I just want to ask you, in researching the Company I took a look at one of the news releases that you talked about. You filed a preliminary proxy statement in relation to a reverse stock split. So, I'm just trying to get some insight from you as to why you are pursuing that option. Answer: Sure, so our board believes that maintaining our listing on Nasdaq, which is where we are traded, is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and it's prudent. To maintain this listing, Nasdaq requires that the stock price trades above a $1 for 10 consecutive trading days prior to January 12, 2026. Obviously, our goal is to meet this requirement through normal business operations but if we are not successful the Board felt it was appropriate to request shareholder approval to effect the reverse stock split to ensure we retain that Nasdaq listing. The reverse stock split should lead to a higher share price which would allow us to more readily access capital and facilitate future financing for our technology roll out and our on-site WDS business model. This is also a great opportunity, quite frankly, to attract a wider investor audience. Certain institutional shareholders, they look at companies, and they will only invest if the stock price is at a certain price level. We want to shoot for that larger base. And then, I guess I'll say lastly we filed the preliminary proxy statement last week, as you pointed out, because when you look at SEC requirements and Nasdaq requirements, we needed to begin that process now. And note that the shareholders will vote on this at the appropriate time, and we will see what their view is on this important decision. As I said, the board through it was prudent at this point to at least start that process. Cautionary Language on Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this communication are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance, including statements relating to whether 374Water will be able to maintain its Nasdaq listing, whether 374Water will be able to broaden its institutional shareholder base, provide increased liquidity, and further enhance shareholder value, and 374Water's ability to destroy PFAS and other waste streams at scale, and 374Water's future prospects and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause 374Water's actual results, levels of activity, performance, or 374Water's achievements or those of its industry to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. In some cases, forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words like "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "intend," "believe," "estimate," "project," "consider," "predict," "potential," "feel," or other comparable terminology. 374Water has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations, assumptions, estimates, beliefs, and projections. While 374Water believes these expectations, assumptions, estimates, and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which involve factors or circumstances that are beyond the 374Water's control.
