Executive Summary

Naughty Ventures Corp. announced soil sampling results on its 100% owned Lord Baron Project in Newfoundland, Canada.
The program extended the strike length of anomalous copper mineralization from approximately 2.25 km to roughly 6.1 km.
Out of 570 soil samples collected, 46 were identified as anomalous in copper (>100ppm).
One trend features a width of up to 175 m and aligns with known geological structures and historical geophysical anomalies.
CEO Blair Naughty stated the results outline a larger and more coherent anomaly than previously recognized, setting the framework for future drilling targets.
Samples were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Laboratories using ISO 17025-accredited methods (30g fire assay for gold, ICP-OES for copper).

Material Impact

The news is positive but incremental in nature; soil sampling is a preliminary exploration step that does not confirm mineralization like drilling results would.
Extending the strike length from 2.25 km to 6.1 km represents a significant geological expansion (>2x), validating the acquisition made in October 2025 where Naughty Ventures purchased the property for 1 million shares.
However, given the company's history of multiple simultaneous projects (Hydrogen, Lithium, REE, Gold) and limited capital raised ($200k private placement in Jan 2026), this does not immediately resolve valuation concerns or liquidity risks.
The market has already priced in some exploration activity following the October acquisition; therefore, while positive, it lacks the "unexpected" catalyst required for a Material Positive rating without subsequent drilling confirmation.
Price action prior to release (April 1-16) showed consolidation at $0.17, suggesting the market was not pricing in immediate major upside from soil work alone.
