UPLOAD OF EXCERPT OF RECORDED INTERVIEW:

On April 23, 2026, Apyx posted to their X feed (@apyx_fi) an interview with Phong Le, President and CEO of Strategy Inc (the “Company”), during which Mr. Le discussed, among other things, the Company’s 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and certain of the proposals to be presented for shareholder consideration. A transcript of Mr. Le’s remarks regarding the foregoing during the interview is set forth below as Annex A.

Annex A

Yeah, I believe in long term the market is reasonably perfect and liquid. Meaning, over the long term, if you look a month, 12 months, three years, five years out, if there is demand for Stretch because it is a product that has characteristics that are quite unique — we talked about the risk return profile; we talked about the return; about the collateral that’s behind it; the over collateralization — that as long as stretch grows over time, right, then the ATM is net positive and we can keep the price, you know pretty close to a hundred. Now what happens in the short term — and you see this happen pretty much every month as we get towards that ex-dividend date, right the 15th of every single month — what are people doing, and reasonably so, right? They buy in on the 14th of the month; they sell it on the 15^th; and they’re able to capture with one day’s holdings an entire month’s worth of 11.5% dividend annualized. And that’s okay. That’s the way a lot of preferreds work. Now there’s mechanisms against that, because if people get out on the ex-dividend date and then on the 15th or 16th the product price is down to $99.50, most people, you know, a lot of people on X called an IQ test if you believe the thing is going up to $100 and that our objective is to target it at $100, then you’re going to buy in $99.50 to get that pickup. And so those two mechanisms plus the return of capital piece on top of it, which means if you sell it you get taxed on that gain and if you hold it you get the tax deferred over time, should drive it to balance, right and people not trying to sort of to move in and out of the ex-dividend date. But I also understand economically why it might make sense, which is part of the reason we put the proposal out to change to two record dates and two payout dates from one a month. And that proposal we put out Friday. And so that’s part of the reason we did that, is to try to flatten out some of these movements of volatility. We’re not necessarily going to decommit to some of the guidance we gave, which says that if over the past one month that the VWAP is between $99 and $99.99, that will raise the rate. And if it’s below, you know, from $95 to $99, we’ll raise the rate 50 basis points versus 25 basis points. So we’re going to keep doing that.
