"Kidoz saw strong growth during most of the quarter as advertisers made investments to grow awareness within Generation Alpha," stated Jason Williams, Kidoz CEO. "Generation Alpha are those born between 2010 and 2022 who are the most technically savvy of all generations as they've never known a world without smart phones. Analysts believe that Generation Alpha will become the world's richest and most powerful group of consumers to date and brands looking to build awareness and a clear identity with this young consumer group are doing so with Kidoz. Many brands over the past 5 years have been completely focused on Generation Z and social media, but this pillar of digital marketing is intensely competitive. With thousands of brands competing for attention on social media platforms, a single user session is packed with fifty or more ad spots targeting Generation Z. In contrast, in-app media has only five ads per user session which creates an excellent opportunity for advertisers to reach Generation Alpha as they age up," continued Williams.

"Kidoz is the market leader for reaching this next generation of valuable consumers. While today it is mostly toy and entertainment brands that are investing in reaching Generation Alpha, management believes that many opportunities exist for a variety of brands across a number of segments. Kidoz is increasing direct relationships with advertiser brands which is resulting in increased trust and increased spend as we are able to show the unique capabilities of the Kidoz platform. However, given the small number of buyers currently targeting Generation Alpha there is always a risk that concentrated buyers will shift spending patterns that will create spots of weakness for Kidoz. While the second quarter of 2024 was strong for the majority of the time, the end of the quarter was slow which has continued into the summer months. The Company usually secures only 25% of revenue in H1 with 75% to follow in H2. With H2 starting more slowly than previous years, advertising demand becomes pent up and we believe the largest fourth quarter in Company history lies ahead in 2024. With these strong market forces combined with the recent approval of COPPA 2.0 by the US Senate, management believes that Kidoz will outperform its competitors to further strengthen its market position for the years ahead.

CAUTION REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release refers to "Adjusted EBITDA" which is a non-GAAP financial measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not presented in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP financial measures and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). We encourage investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in the last Quarterly Form 6-K, including our unaudited consolidated financial statements, to aid in their analysis and understanding of our performance and in making comparisons.

We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to evaluate our performance and make financial and operational decisions that are presented in a manner that adjusts from their equivalent GAAP measures or that supplement the information provided by our GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as EBITDA (net income (loss) plus depreciation expense, amortization expense, interest, stock-based compensation and impairment of goodwill), further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash expenses and other adjustments. We use Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it more clearly highlights business trends that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures, since Adjusted EBITDA eliminates from our results specific financial items that have less bearing on our core operating performance.

Our Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled as follows:



Six Months ended June 30, 2024
