ZoomerMedia Limited Announces Results for the Year Ended August 31, 2018


TORONTO, Dec. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --  ZoomerMedia Limited (TSXV:ZUM) (the "Company"), the leader in serving the interests of the 45+ "Zoomer" market in Canada, today announced its financial results for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2018.

Consolidated Results
For the year ended August 31, 2018, the Company had revenues of $50.7 million, operating expenses of $48.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $2.7 million. Net income for the year ended August 31, 2018 was $52 thousand.

For the year ended August 31, 2017, the Company had revenues of $50.6 million, operating expenses of $50.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $0.3 million. Net loss for the year ended August 31, 2017 was $6.4 million.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS earnings measures which do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA presented by other companies. EBITDA represents earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA excludes impairment of broadcast licenses and the gain on sale of property. These measures are important to management since they are used by potential investors to evaluate the Company's operating performance and ability to incur and service debt, and as a valuation metric. Investors are cautioned that this non-IFRS financial measure should not be construed as an alternative to other measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS.

Additional Information

Detailed financial information and Management's Discussion and Analysis for the year ended August 31, 2018 can be found on SEDAR's website at www.sedar.com. The financial information included in this release is qualified in its entirety and should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2018, including the notes thereto.
