QYOU Media CEO and Co-Founder, Curt Marvis commented, "Q2 2024 reflects the push from India Group CEO Raj Mishra and QYOU USA President Glenn Ginsburg along with all management to control costs and drive growth around business units that are delivering cash positive results. Management and the board believe that sharpening our focus on bottom line performance that both reduces the need to raise more capital and eliminates an investment strategy that drags down financial performance is in the best interest of all shareholders. As markets, share prices and overall conditions improve, we will be well positioned to take advantage with a business that is delivering positive financial results. We expect more announcements and business decisions driven by this strategy across the remainder of 2024 with the goal of strengthening our balance sheet and improving overall financial results. A cash positive quarter is indeed a breath of fresh air for us all and we fully expect to enter 2025 from a position of strength."

*Note on Adjusted EBITDA:

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), we present Earnings Before Interest Tax Depreciation and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") which is a non-IFRS financial measure. The presentation of non-IFRS financial measurement are not intended to be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, or superior to, operating loss or net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities or any other measures of cash flows or liquidity.

We define earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") as revenue minus operating expenses excluding non-cash and or non-recurring operating expenses including but not limited to stock-based compensation, marketing credits, depreciation and amortization (interest and taxes are not included in the Company's operating expenses). Adjusted EBITDA is used as an internal measure to evaluate the performance of our operating segments. We believe that information about this non-IFRS financial measure assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in operating results of our business separate from non-operational factors that affect operating income (loss) and net income (loss), thus providing insights into both operations and other factors that affect reported results. A limitation of the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure is that it does not reflect the periodic costs of certain amortizing assets used in generating revenue in our business. Furthermore, this measure may vary among companies; thus Adjusted EBITDA as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

In compliance with the TSX Venture Exchange's policies, QYOU Media Inc. announces that it previously engaged the services of ICP Securities Inc. ("ICP") to provide 'market making' services for a monthly service fee of $7,500 per month. The services began on February 1, 2024 and ended on April 30, 2024.
