RIWI RELEASES Q3 FINANCIALS

Riwi Corp. has released its financial results for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2023. All figures are reported in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. Riwi's financial statements are prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standards.

Riwi highlights for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023 -- in U.S. dollars:

• Riwi earned $1,144,838 in revenues in the third quarter of 2023 compared with $773,674 for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2022, an increase of 47.97 per cent. That revenue consisted of $438,224 in transaction revenue, $324,165 in recurring revenue and $382,449 in project-based revenue. Riwi experienced a net profit of $14,288 and positive operating cash flow of $77,629 for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023, as compared with a net loss of $323,655 and net use of cash of $163,994 for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2022.
• Riwi's recurring revenues in the third quarter of 2023 increased by $291,265 compared with the third quarter of 2022.
• Riwi signed 17 new client contracts in the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023, including contract signings with 11 new Riwi customers.
• Riwi introduced a new measure, adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), as of third quarter 2023. Adjusted EBITDA is meant to provide investors with better visibility into the operating business of Riwi as it nets out non-operating expenses.
• All Riwi project-based customers have been migrated to the new Riwi platform with the exception of long-standing time-series customers. It expects all remaining customers will migrate to the new platform in 2024.
• Riwi strengthened its leadership team by hiring a new head of its international development customer segment. Riwi has an impactful history of helping humanitarian aid organizations collect actionable data in hard-to-reach areas or conflict zones where displaced citizens are most vulnerable. Riwi management is of the view that investing in this sector is both aligned with the company's values and good for business.
• Riwi launched Riwi Communities as a global network of approved and validated partners to extend the reach of Riwi, both in terms of audience and in terms of capabilities. Riwi Communities enables Riwi to deliver broader solutions to customers including: social media listening, passive spending data and search data from targeted user groups, telephone surveys, in-person surveys, and qualitative surveys. In the third quarter of 2023, Riwi delivered four customer projects using Riwi Communities.
• Riwi's work has been cited by publications, which include reports by the Bank of Canada, the Public Policy Forum and the World Bank; and articles in The Journal of Social Psychology and Asia Times. Highlighted Riwi data and research noted in these publications include: perceptions of Ukraine's travel ban, Canadian consumer expectations, the rise of polarization in Canada, assessing the political leanings of Argentina's population, local and international support for governmental leadership in regard to China-U.S. relations, and the evaluation of public attitudes toward migration.

"The Riwi strategy is coming together as we build a sustainable long-term business. The result of that strategy is the first profitable quarter for Riwi in nine quarters," said Greg Wong, chief executive officer at Riwi. Despite the strong performance of Q3, management is anticipating a challenging [fourth quarter] amid turbulent market conditions and continued investments in data quality. Management is working diligently to achieve consistent and positive operating cash flow and profitability in 2024."

Riwi's unaudited interim financial statements and management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2023, are available on Riwi's website and on SEDAR+.
