**POET Technologies Reports Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results**

TORONTO, Nov. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- POET Technologies Inc. ("**POET**" or the "**Company**") (TSX Venture: PTK; NASDAQ: POET), the designer and developer of Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs), light sources and optical modules for the AI and data center markets, today reported its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025. The Company's financial results as well as the Management Discussion and Analysis have been filed on SEDAR+. All financial figures are in United States dollars ("USD") unless otherwise indicated.

**<u>Management Commentary:</u>**

"The third quarter of 2025 demonstrated continued progress toward commercialization of our optical engine and light source products. The placement of two successive initial production orders from two key customers valued at over $5.6 million is the beginning of a revenue ramp which we expect to increase steadily throughout 2026," said Dr. Suresh Venkatesan, Chairman & CEO of POET Technologies.

"The introduction of our 1.6T optical receiver, developed in collaboration with Semtech, enhances POET's product leadership into the highest-performance segments of the AI interconnect market. We are also evolving our light-source product in partnership with Sivers Semiconductors, and expanding into the mobile AI telecom space with NTT Innovative Devices. These engagements form a foundation for accelerated customer adoption and revenue growth in high-volume AI networking solutions."

"Having developed one of the most flexible, high-performance assembly platforms available in the photonics space today, we are now focused on adding to our Optical Interposer advanced components to produce highly differentiated engines and modules for both high-speed interconnect and light-based chip-to-chip data communication. To support this strategy, we recently closed US$250 million in equity financing from three institutional investors, enabling both internal expansion of development and manufacturing capabilities and inorganic growth through acquisitions."

**<u>Notable Business Highlights:</u>**

* Introduced 1.6T optical receivers with Semtech supporting next generation AI clusters and data-center
interconnects.

* Advanced POET Starlight light-source strategy through new partnerships with Sivers Semiconductors.

* Entry into the front-haul mobile networking space in collaboration with NTT Innovative Devices.

* Secured a US$5,000,000 initial order for 800G transmit and receive engines, confirming readiness for volume
production.

* Successfully completed three rounds of equity financing with three institutional investors at prices ranging
from $5.00 to $7.25 per share for gross proceeds of $250,000,000.

**Forward-Looking Statements**

This news release contains "forward-looking information" (within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws) and "forward-looking statements" (within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). Such statements or information are identified with words such as "anticipate", "believe", "expect", "plan", "intend", "potential", "estimate", "propose", "project", "outlook", "foresee" or similar words suggesting future outcomes or statements regarding any potential outcome. Such statements include the Company's expectations with respect to the success of the Company's product development efforts, the performance of its products, the expected results of its operations, meeting revenue targets, and the expectation of continued success in the financing efforts, the capability, functionality, performance and cost of the Company's technology as well as the market acceptance, inclusion and timing of the Company's technology in current and future products and expectations for approval of proposals at the Company's annual meeting of shareholders.

Such forward-looking information or statements are based on a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions which may cause actual results or other expectations to differ materially from those anticipated and which may prove to be incorrect.

Actual results could differ materially due to a number of factors, including, without limitation, the failure of its products to meet performance requirements, lack of sales in its products, once released, operational risks in the completion of the Company's anticipated projects, lack of performance of its joint venture, risks affecting the Company's ability to execute projects, the ability of the Company to generate sales for its products, the ability to attract key personnel, the ability to raise additional capital and the agreement by shareholders to approve proposals put forth by the Company at shareholders' meetings. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking information or statements are reasonable, prospective investors in the Company's securities should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements because the Company can provide no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct.
