BBTV Provides Corporate Update

VANCOUVER, BC, June 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - BBTV Holdings Inc. (TSX: BBTV) (OTCQX: BBTVF) (Frankfurt: 64V) ("BBTV" or the "Company"), the leading creator monetization company with a mission to help creators become more successful, provides a corporate update on its operations including an update on Plus Solutions revenue growth and the launch of a comprehensive cost optimization initiative for more efficient cash flow and to expedite the Company's path to profitability.

BBTV began Q2 2022 with continued strong momentum in its Plus Solutions revenue performance with April reflecting more than 40% growth year over year. BBTV recently reported record revenue results and its Plus Solutions now represent 30-40% of the Company's overall gross profit in Q1 2022. The Company also raised guidance on its Plus Solutions revenues for the year.

"With record revenue for Plus Solutions in Q1 this year, we are steadily improving our gross margins and increasing Plus Solutions contribution to total revenues and gross profit," said Shahrzad Rafati, Chairperson and CEO of BBTV. "Based on the trajectory in Plus Solutions, we believe that we have sufficient working capital to get to positive cashflow. Our objective is to accelerate towards positive cashflow, so we are embarking on a cost optimization program that will examine and optimize our growth investments in the short-term."

The Company's internal review includes maximizing cross-functional synergies between departments, allocating resources to maximize performance of higher margin revenue streams, and optimizing investments in future markets.  Shareholders can expect to see results of these measures from Q3 2022 onwards.

"Given market conditions we believe it's important that the company demonstrates its ability to achieve profitability," said Ben Groot, CFO, BBTV. "BBTV's convertible debt arrangements are termed out for a number of years and the company's cash resources exceed $20 million as of Q1 providing balance sheet strength as we seek to scale towards profitability. We believe that our cost optimization program will improve the company's resilience in the near and long term."
