The Company also announced today the voluntary adoption of CSA pilot project 51-933 which permits certain qualifying exchange listed venture issuers such as Quest to volunteer to file financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis (MD&amp;A) on a semi-annual basis instead of quarterly.  Pursuant to the proposal, the initial period for which Quest does not intend to file an interim report and related MD&amp;A is for the three-month period ending April 30, 2026.
