Kidoz Inc. Revenue of US$2,808,354 in Q3 2023

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2023 / Kidoz Inc. (TSXV:KIDZ) (the "Company"), mobile AdTech developer and owner of the market leading Kidoz Contextual Ad Network (www.kidoz.net); and the Kidoz Publisher SDK, announced todayits unaudited condensed interim financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. All amounts are presented in United States dollars and are in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

"In Q3 2023, we recorded revenue of $2,808,354, a figure that reflects our resilient performance amidst a challenging global economic landscape," stated Jason Williams, Kidoz CEO. "This period witnessed a cautious trend in digital media spending, influenced by global market uncertainties and fluctuating interest and inflation rates putting pressure on consumer spending. Despite these factors, Kidoz has effectively managed its operations, maintaining strong relationships with our clients. While some anticipated campaigns were rescheduled, we see these not as missed opportunities but as potential growth avenues for 2024" said Williams.

"Furthermore, 2023 marked a significant strategic evolution for Kidoz, as we transitioned towards a more robust, direct in-house sales model in America, advancing from our previous agency sales representation strategy. This strategic progression represents a significant investment in our long-term vision. While such a transition naturally unfolds over time, the early indications are highly encouraging. Our team is now engaging with an unprecedented number of brands and agencies, demonstrating the strength and potential of our new approach. We are confident that this refined sales strategy in North America will usher in a period of growth and an enhanced market footprint for Kidoz starting in 2024."

"Kidoz is the leader in COPPA media. We are the technical backbone of the industry for kid-safe in-app media. When the company was under agency representation agreements, it was more difficult to communicate the advantages of our platform as we did not have deep relationships with important brands. In 2023, as a result of these better relationships with leading brands, they now have a better understanding of our role as the critical path for COPPA compliance. This, combined with our improved technical capabilities derived from our significant investment in research and development over the past three years, we are in a strong position to see these investments provide positive returns in the coming quarters."

"Additionally, our Prado offering of advertising to teens and parents commenced in 2023. In the third quarter of fiscal 2023 we have had a record number of new campaigns on the Prado system. Whilst campaigns in tier one countries, with larger budget allocations, remain elusive to Prado, we have had high demand in smaller countries for our Prado offering. We will continue to invest in expanding the Prado brand in 2024 and expect to attract more brands in larger jurisdictions in 2024."

"It is managements opinion that the Kidoz and Prado media platforms are robust and our proprietary systems are capable of generating many multiples of higher revenue as the industry begins to embrace more in-app media for brands. Management remains more confident than ever in our ability to secure large budget allocations from both large and small brands, world-wide, and return the Company to record growth."

"Unfortunately, our share price does not reflect the value of the Company, however we continue to believe our focus on the longer term, and careful cash management, rather than quarter over quarter performance is the correct sustainable strategy, especially in these turbulent times. The Company's cash and working capital positions remain strong and even though our revenue was down, by focusing on our margins we provided $98,877 to our cash generated by operations during the quarter."

CAUTION REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release refers to "Adjusted EBITDA" which is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not presented in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP financial measures and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We encourage investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in our annual Management Discussion and Analysis and our Form 20-F, to aid in their analysis and understanding of our performance and in making comparisons.

We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to evaluate our performance and make financial and operational decisions that are presented in a manner that adjusts from their equivalent GAAP measures or that supplement the information provided by our GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as EBITDA (net income (loss) plus depreciation expense, amortization expense, interest, stock-based compensation and impairment of goodwill), further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash expenses and other adjustments. We use Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it more clearly highlights business trends that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures, since Adjusted EBITDA eliminates from our results specific financial items that have less bearing on our core operating performance.

Our Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled as follows:
