"Unfortunately, weakness in the wider advertising market was experienced by Kidoz during Q1 2023," stated Jason Williams, Kidoz CEO. "While this decline was expected and we can see this weakness is isolated to only the first quarter of the year, our performance has suffered as a result. The good news for the quarter is that our programmatic revenues are rising, our cash flow from operations was almost neutral and our gross margins showed improvement increasing to 40% from 36% in Q1 2022."

"More important than the temporary revenue decline during the slowest quarter of the year is the Company's continued trajectory in building a leading technology platform and establishing strong commercial relationships with the world's leading brands. We continue to increase investments in our software systems and are seeing returns in our programmatic efforts which we expect will continue to grow for the duration of 2023. Advanced systems and features have also been applied to our publisher SDK, bidder technology, and performance (app install) campaign technology. Each and every system upgrade opens new commercial opportunities in the US$400 billion dollar digital advertising industry.

"Kidoz also continues to make significant investments in our direct and agency sales relationships to support the Kidoz and Prado brands in the market. We are engaged in a record number of brand and campaign planning discussions and anticipate these will result in another record full year of revenues and profit for Kidoz Inc. Since the beginning of April 2023, we have seen network activity return to year-over-year gains. We are building the systems and processes to support a scale of business many times higher than our current volumes and believe it's only a matter of time before we can unlock this scale as a result of our continued delivery of world class media for our brand partners."

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:
