Mr. Gary Yeoman reports

ILOOKABOUT ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2018

iLookabout Corp. has released its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, and the related management's discussion and analysis, available at SEDAR and on the company's website. Shareholders may request a hard copy of this material by directing their request to: iLookabout, office of the chief financial officer, 408, 383 Richmond St., London, Ont., N6A 3C4.

Highlights of financial results

Effective Jan. 1, 2018, the company adopted IFRS 15 (international financial reporting standard 15) (Revenue from Contracts with Customers). Upon initial adoption, the company has applied IFRS 15 with full retrospective application, subject to certain practical expedients. Therefore, the comparative information has been restated as if IFRS 15 had been in effect since Jan. 1, 2017.

Revenue

Revenue increased 21 per cent to $2,392,000 from $1,974,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, respectively. This increase was primarily attributable to: (i) an increase of approximately $187,000 in revenue generated from the licensing of the company's Web-based real-property-focused applications and StreetScape imagery; (ii) an increase of approximately $136,000 of revenue generated from managed services, including data verification, change detection and property-related data processing; and (iii) an increase of approximately $63,000 related to consulting services.

Gross margin

Gross margin increased 20 per cent to $1,645,000 from $1,372,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, respectively. This increase is mainly attributable to increased revenue of approximately $418,000, for the reasons noted in the revenue section herein. This increase was partially offset by: (i) an increase in subcontracted expense of approximately $90,000 to support a multiyear, service agreement based in the United States, for which services commenced in the second quarter of 2017; and (ii) an increase of approximately $30,000 in human-resource-related costs to support new sales contracts.

Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive income of approximately $117,000 was generated for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared with a comprehensive loss of $52,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. This improvement is attributable to improved gross margin of approximately $273,000, for the reasons noted in the gross margin section herein, and increased foreign exchange gains of approximately $41,000, attributable to fluctuating U.S. foreign exchange rates and U.S.-dollar-denominated items. These changes were offset to some extent by increased professional fees of approximately $208,000 to support strategic initiatives.

Adjusted EBITDA (comprehensive income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation/amortization of equipment and intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, and other costs or income of a non-operating and/or non-recurring nature) (1)

Adjusted EBITDA increased to $198,000 from $88,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Explanations for the changes in revenue, gross margin and comprehensive loss, which drove the improvement in adjusted EBITDA, are described in the sections herein.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA is an unaudited non-generally accepted accounting principle measure and does not have any standardized meaning prescribed under international financial reporting standards and, therefore, may not be comparable with similar measures employed by other reporting issuers. Management believes adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information with respect to the financial performance and value of the company. Adjusted EBITDA is defined and calculated by the company as comprehensive income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation/amortization of equipment and intangible assets, share-based compensation expense, and other costs or income of a non-operating and/or non-recurring nature. The company classifies income or costs as non-recurring if income or costs similar in nature are not reasonably expected to occur within the next two years nor have occurred during the prior two years, and such costs are significant. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2017, the company's definition and calculation of adjusted EBITDA did not include adjustments related to costs or income of a non-operating and/or non-recurring nature. The revision of this calculation had no impact on adjusted EBITDA for prior periods presented herein.
