INEO Announces Fiscal Third Quarter Financial Results

• INEO's continued growth delivers the best third quarter in Company history.
• INEO remains on track with Welcoming System deployments and has expanded reach to over 18 states across the Unites States with major retail partners.

SURREY, BC, May 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - INEO Tech Corp. (TSXV: INEO) (OTCQB: INEOF) (the "Company" or "INEO"), the innovative developer and operator of the INEO Media Network, a digital advertising and analytics solution for retailers, today announced it has filed its Interim Consolidated Quarterly Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis on SEDAR.com for the Company's fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2023.

"We are satisfied with our third quarter results in which we reported a 19% increase in revenue," said Greg Watkin, Chairman and Founder of INEO. "During the first half of 2023, our primary focus has been to accelerate our roll-out plans and accomplish significant progress in our Welcoming System deployments. We are currently on track with our deployment schedule, working alongside our major retail partners, and are excited to have a presence in over eighteen states across the United States. We anticipate our revenues to ramp up in the coming quarters to reflect the increase of Welcoming Systems on the INEO Media Network, as our systems initially require a few months to collect store demographic data and analytics before advertisers start ramping on the platform. Furthermore, considering the current economic climate, it is vital for us to optimize our operations and allocate resources more efficiently for sustainable growth and long-term success. To that end, we have begun implementing cost saving initiatives and workflow optimizations to reduce our expenditures so that we can balance the growth of our network while maintaining a disciplined cost structure for our operations."

• On February 8, 2023, INEO added the Welcoming Greeter to its suite of retail media network products for retailers. The Welcoming Greeter is a stand-alone pedestal-based advertising display which delivers expanded messaging and increased advertising capabilities for retailers.

These installations include several major cities such as New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago and Phoenix.

Kyle Hall, CEO of INEO commented on the Company's progress, "We continue to be aggressive in expanding our network with our global distribution partner, Prosegur, and expect to be sharing new customer agreements and updates in the coming quarters. Additionally, with the rapid expansion of our Welcoming System Network, increasing our advertising fill rates has been a major priority for INEO. Our systems are installed in highly attractive retail stores and we are actively working with our major retail partners to increase the number of ad placements on the network. In addition, we are fully committed to propelling INEO towards the next stage of growth and acknowledge the need to strategically balance driving revenue growth through the expansion of our network while maintaining low costs and reducing expenditures. We look forward to providing further updates in the coming months."

Outlook:

INEO is now actively deploying systems and ramping up its installation locations with contracted customers across North America. INEO is landing pilot wins with large retailers, expanding its location footprint, and ramping up its revenues. In particular, the Company is making significant progress with a major retail partner who has over 1,000 store locations across the United States.

INEO's key objectives for fiscal 2023 are as follows:

• Increase revenues through the deployment of systems to INEO's leading retail customers.
• Expand the INEO Media Network, in key geographical markets across North America and South America
• Support Prosegur with its growth and initiatives with key retailers across the globe, including converting large retail customers from trialing the Welcoming System to fully contracted customer roll-outs.

INEO's technology has been proven out and has been validated by a global partnership with Prosegur. INEO has created a healthy sales pipeline consisting of both direct sales customers and Prosegur's customers, including grocery, home hardware, apparel and wholesale club retail chains from North America, South America and Europe. INEO has seeded the market with trial systems and expects to convert these trials into full scale roll-outs in the coming quarters.

Advertising and analytics are becoming increasingly important in the modern retail environment as retailers continue to invest in retail technology to improve the customer experience. INEO is well positioned to take advantage of these trends with its market leading technology and programmatic advertising partners which will enhance the Company's future growth. INEO's current focus is to continue to accelerate its deployments of INEO Media Network and create a critical mass of systems.
