Snipp is also pleased to announce the promotion of Dr. Niamh O Riordan as its Chief Operating Officer. Dr. O Riordan has expertise in operations management, business and data analytics, software design and development, project and portfolio management. She is also a published Information Systems scholar with years of experience at some of the world's top business schools. She holds a PhD in Management Information Systems, an MBS, MA and BA. She joined Snipp in 2019 and was promoted to Global Head of Operations in 2021. Dr. O Riordan will lead operational strategic and tactical initiatives and manage Snipp's operations function.

Commenting on her new role, Dr. O Riordan said, "I am very excited to take on this new role at Snipp. I will continue to oversee key operations including project and product management, client and customer services delivery, and processing operations. My primary focus will be on simplifying, streamlining, standardizing and effectively evaluating core business processes. The company is currently in a very strong position with ambitious goals. I welcome the opportunity to be part of its growth and look forward to helping the company deliver comprehensive, timely solutions as well as meet larger strategic goals."

Commenting on the appointment, Atul Sabharwal, Founder and CEO, said, "as we scale our business, our people are also stepping up and I am excited by the appointment of Dr. Niamh O Riordan as our Chief Operating Officer. Dr. O Riordan will help us scale our systems so we can continue to provide flawless execution for our Fortune 500 clients globally".

According to Mr. Sabharwal, "2021 was a banner year for Snipp. Given all the macroeconomic challenges posed by the pandemic, I am grateful to our employees who stayed focused on executing our strategy. Our success is truly a testament to our dedicated team who not only achieved, but exceeded the goals we had set for ourselves. It is clear that as legacy MarTech solutions are facing challenges given ongoing privacy regulations, that our unique zero-party and first-party platforms are gaining momentum in the industry.

"Looking forward, we continue to see strong bookings for our core Snipp solutions-both in historical verticals as well as some new ones we have recently expanded into. In addition, the recent $5 million investment by the Bally's corporation positions us to make the investments we need in our strategy to be the leading customer, acquisition, retention, and engagement data platform for our clients. A component of this strategy is based on scaling Gambit Rewards, our first foray into building a direct consumer-facing application. Since closing the Gambit acquisition in February of 2022, we have already made great strides on multiple fronts and look forward to demonstrating the tremendous value this will bring to our clients and shareholders over the course of the coming years. We will soon roll out a co-branded Gambit loyalty gaming platform that leverages Bally's marquee brand and world class digital gaming expertise."

Towards our goals of helping to drive shareholder value, we are pleased to highlight that Paradigm Capital has recently initiated research coverage on Snipp, which we believe will help to broaden the Company's exposure in the public marketplace. Additional research coverage, continued PR, exploring the roll-back of our stock and uplist to the Nasdaq are all steps the company continues to pursue.

Non-GAAP Measures

Snipp uses certain performance measures throughout this document that are not recognizable under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles or IFRS ("GAAP"). These performance measures include Gross Margin and EBITDA. Management believes that these measures provide supplemental financial information that is useful in the evaluation of the Company's operations.

Investors should be cautioned, however, that these measures should not be construed as alternatives to measures determined in accordance with GAAP and IFRS as an indicator of Snipp's performance. The Company's method of calculating these measures may differ from that of other organizations, and accordingly, these may not be comparable.

EBITDA

Snipp defines earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") as revenue minus operating expenses excluding non-cash operating expenses of share-based payments, depreciation and amortization (interest and taxes are not included in the Company's operating expenses).

Gross Margin

Snipp defines Gross Margin as revenue less campaign infrastructure. The Company's calculation of Gross Margin is not a financial measure that is recognized under GAAP. Investors should be cautioned that the Company's defined Gross Margin should not be construed as an alternative measure to other measures determined in accordance with GAAP.

Bookings Backlog

Snipp defines Bookings Backlog as future revenue from existing customer contracts to be recognized in future quarters. Bookings get translated into revenues based on IFRS principles and the Bookings Backlog reflects how revenues in future quarters are steadily being booked today.
