Company Announcements

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 9, 2026-- Menē Inc. (TSX-V: MENE) (US: MENEF) (“Menē” or the “Company”), the online jewelry brand known for crafting pure 24 karat gold and pure platinum jewelry sold transparently by gram weight, is pleased to announce that its clients now hold more than CAD$350 million worth of Menē jewelry.

As of March 6, 2026, Menē clients held nearly CAD$313 million in Menē gold jewelry and over CAD$38 million in Menē platinum jewelry, for a combined total of approximately CAD$351 million. Since the Company’s founding in 2017, more than 179,000 pieces of jewelry have been sold to clients around the world.

The milestone comes amid renewed global demand for precious metals as investors increasingly turn to gold and platinum as stores of value during a period of economic uncertainty.

STATEMENT FROM VINCENT GLADU, CEO OF MENĒ

We are proud to announce that Menē clients now hold more than CAD$350 million in Menē jewelry. Remarkably, this milestone comes just five months after we announced that our clients had surpassed CAD$250 million in holdings.

Menē was founded on the idea that jewelry should possess both beauty and enduring value. By crafting our pieces exclusively in pure 24 karat gold and pure platinum and pricing them transparently by gram weight, we offer our clients something rare in the luxury industry, jewelry that is a store of enduring value.

Our clients are not simply purchasing adornment; they are building collections of wearable wealth. Through the Menē platform, they can monitor the value of their jewelry over time and retain the flexibility to exchange or sell their pieces based on prevailing market prices.

Reaching CAD$350 million in client-held jewelry is a testament to the trust our clients place in our mission to restore the relationship between jewelry and savings. On behalf of the entire Menē team, I want to thank our customers for their continued support.

STATEMENT FROM DIANA WIDMAIER-PICASSO, CHIEF ARTISTIC OFFICER

Menē was created to bring precious metals back to their rightful place in culture — not only as adornment, but as enduring objects of value.

Gold and platinum have been treasured across civilizations for thousands of years. At Menē, we honour this heritage by designing jewelry that celebrates the purity and permanence of these metals while remaining timeless in form.

This milestone reflects a growing appreciation for jewelry that carries both artistic meaning and intrinsic worth. We are deeply grateful to our clients who choose Menē pieces to wear, treasure, and pass on through generations.
