Continued engineering and technology development advances the E-Motion™ platform’s reliability, integration and service architecture

BOISBRIAND, QC, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Vision Marine Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: VMAR; TSXV: VMAR) (“Vision Marine” or the “Company”), a marine technology company and vertically integrated recreational boating platform, today announced the delivery and acceptance of electronic control unit (“ECU”) assemblies manufactured by Circuits Central Inc. (“Circuits Central”) for use within the Company’s E-Motion™ high-voltage electric marine propulsion platform.

Circuits Central has completed and delivered ECU assemblies supporting ten E-Motion™ powertrains. Vision Marine has completed incoming inspection of the delivered assemblies, which have been accepted for use within the Company’s E-Motion™ production and integration activities.

The completed production work forms part of Vision Marine’s ongoing system-level engineering and technology-development initiatives across the E-Motion™ platform. High-voltage marine propulsion requires the coordinated performance of mechanical, electrical, thermal, software and control-system components in demanding on-water conditions. The ECU architecture supports critical control, communications and monitoring functions within that broader system.

As Vision Marine continues to advance E-Motion™ integrations, the Company remains focused on strengthening the quality, repeatability and serviceability of the platform at each stage of development and production. Utilizing specialized electronics manufacturing capability for critical control-electronics assemblies is intended to support more consistent component production, testing, traceability and integration across different vessel configurations.

Circuits Central is an established electronics manufacturing and product-development services provider with more than 25 years of experience in printed circuit board manufacturing and assembly, prototyping, testing and quality assurance. The company states that it has supported customers ranging from technology startups to established S&P 500 companies and supports projects from prototype development through production runs exceeding 10,000 units. Circuits Central also states that its processes align with ISO and IPC industry guidelines.

“We’ve spent decades building and supporting electronic assemblies where quality and consistency matter, and we’re pleased to bring that experience to Vision Marine’s E-Motion™ platform,” said Hooman Javdan, Owner and Managing Director of Circuits Central. “Marine propulsion demands a high bar for quality, so our focus is to deliver electronics assemblies with the traceability, consistency and responsiveness needed to support Vision Marine’s production and integration work. We appreciate the opportunity and look forward to supporting the continued evolution of the E-Motion™ platform.”

“E-Motion™ is a complete marine propulsion system, and system reliability depends on the quality and coordination of every critical component—not only the motor or battery,” said Dan Rathe, Chief Technology Officer of Vision Marine Technologies. “The platform continues to evolve through the refinement of the mechanical, electrical, thermal, software and control systems that work together on the water. The use of experienced electronics manufacturing capability for ECU assemblies supports the component quality, traceability and repeatability required to continue advancing E-Motion™ as a dependable, integration-ready propulsion system designed specifically for marine applications.”

Vision Marine has developed E-Motion™ as a purpose-built high-voltage propulsion platform for marine applications. The Company has previously disclosed E-Motion™ integrations across more than 25 boat platforms and 13 boat brands, including pontoon, catamaran, center-console and bowrider applications.

Circuits Central’s manufacture of ECU assembly’s forms part of Vision Marine’s broader effort to advance E-Motion™ through component validation, production-process refinement, OEM integration and service development. Together with the Company’s engineering activities, manufacturer relationships and Nautical Ventures retail and service platform, these initiatives are intended to reinforce the technical and operational foundation supporting the continued deployment of E-Motion™-equipped boats.

GZIRA, Malta, July 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SOFTSWISS has introduced new positioning and a refreshed visual identity in response to structural changes reshaping iGaming markets today. Insights from five years of SOFTSWISS iGaming Trends research show that operators increasingly expect technology providers to deliver more than software.

Five years of SOFTSWISS iGaming Trends reports highlight three structural shifts across the industry: increasing market fragmentation driven by local regulation, greater operational complexity for operators, and a shift from transactional vendor relationships to long-term partnerships built on reliability, expertise, and brand trust.

Responding to these changes, SOFTSWISS has expanded from a software provider into a broader technology and growth partner, bringing together compliance-ready products, deep expertise in regulated markets, resilient infrastructure, and expert-led services to help operators launch, grow, and scale sustainably.

Today, SOFTSWISS holds licences and certifications across more than 25 jurisdictions worldwide, reflecting its extensive expertise in regulated markets.

In Brazil alone, the company works with more than 60 certified brands, building substantial experience in Brazil’s regulated iGaming market. SOFTSWISS also contributes to industry dialogue through organisations including Brazil’s ANJL and Malta-based iGEN, supporting the development of sustainable regulated markets.

Technology remains at the core of the company’s strategy. For 17 years, SOFTSWISS has maintained 99.999% platform uptime while supporting more than 1,500 brands globally. To balance operational excellence with innovation, SOFTSWISS established a dedicated Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer (CAIO) role, enabling platform reliability and AI innovation to advance in parallel.

Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, comments: “As iGaming becomes more regulated and more complex, operators need much more than technology alone. They need a partner that understands regulation, brings operational expertise, and supports sustainable growth over the long term.

Our updated positioning doesn’t change who we are – it simply reflects the company we’ve become and the role we already play for our partners.”

The refreshed identity reflects SOFTSWISS’ evolution into a strategic partner for growth in regulated markets.

The new identity will be introduced globally across products, communications, and industry touchpoints throughout 2026.
