Exhibit

Today, the Company is also announcing the planned launch of its next-generation burner management product line, the PF2200. Development of the PF2200 is nearing completion, and the Company expects to begin commercial sales of the PF2200 in the fall of 2019 once field trials have been completed and certifications have been obtained. The PF2200 implements a number of user-friendly upgrades and auxiliary features that are not currently available with the Company’s PF2100 burner management system.

"We have planned for the market volatility and conditions that we are experiencing to start 2019 as we expect revenues in the first half of 2019 to remain relatively flat with Q4 2018 and pick up as the year moves along,î said Brenton Hatch, President and CEO of Profire Energy. "We believe our growth strategy allows for long-term growth whether or not overall industry conditions improve significantly. We are making strategic investments with the intent of increasing revenues in the coming years. These investments will help Profire remain a technology leader within the industry."

"As we mentioned last quarter, we still expect total operating expenses for the full year of 2019 to increase by roughly 20% when compared to 2018, which may out pace revenue growth in the short term due to the ongoing industry challenges,î stated Ryan Oviatt, CFO of Profire. "We plan to invest both internally and externally in 2019 to take advantages of opportunities that we believe will increase Profire’s market potential. This increased investment does not mean that we plan to move away from core values that have made us successful throughout the previous years."



Profire Energy President and CEO Brenton Hatch and CFO Ryan Oviatt will host the call, followed by a question and answer period.
