MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF ZOOMD TECHNOLOGIES LTD.

Basis of Presentation

The following management’s discussion and analysis (“ MD&A ”) relates to the operating results, financial position, cash flows, and outlook guidance of Zoomd Technologies Ltd. (the “ Company ”), its whollyowned subsidiary Zoomd Ltd. (“ Zoomd ”) and Zoomd’s wholly owned subsidiary Moblin Asia Pte. Ltd. (“ Moblin ”) prepared for the three months and year ended December 31, 2022 and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and related notes attached thereto (the “ Financial Statements ”).

The Financial Statements and extracts of those financial statements included in this MD&A are presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“ IFRS ”).

The effective date of this MD&A is April 28, 2023.

Unless otherwise stated herein, all amounts expressed in this MD&A are presented in thousands of United States dollars, denominated by “$” or “USD” or “US$”, the functional currency of the Company.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This MD&A includes certain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, which involve risks and uncertainties associated with the business and the environment in which the Company operates. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical facts may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, including those identified by the expressions “ anticipate ”, “ believe ”, “ plan ”, “ estimate ”, “ expect ”, “ intend ”, and similar expressions to the extent they relate to the Company or its management. The forward-looking statements are not facts but reflect management’s current expectations regarding future results or events. In developing the forward-looking statements in this MD&A, the Company has applied several material assumptions, including the availability of financing on reasonable terms, the Company’s ability and general business and economic conditions. These forward-looking statements are subject to several risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations, including, but not limited to, risks and uncertainties related to:

  1. the performance of the Company’s business and operations;

  2. the intention to grow the business and operations of the Company;

  3. the ability of the Company to implement and execute its product development roadmap;

  4. the ability of the Company to grow through mergers and acquisitions;

  7. 2 -

  8. general economic conditions, including but not limited to risks associated with the weakening of global economic activity and recession, foreign currency fluctuations, increased interest rates, and inflation;

  9. demand for the Company’s products;

  10. introduction of competing products;

  11. the Company’s ability to respond to rapid technological changes with new products and services;

  12. the return on investment from research and development investments made by the Company;

  13. the Company’s ability to protect and enforce its intellectual property, and risks of potential claims of intellectual property infringement by third parties;

  18. the ability of the Company’s products to operate effectively within the systems of the Company’s customers; and

With respect to the forward-looking statements contained herein, although the Company believes that the expectations and assumptions are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, because no assurance can be given that they will prove to be correct. There can be no assurance that the anticipated results or developments will actually be realized, and actual results can be expected to vary from the results projected and such variances may be material and adverse. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. Comparisons of results for current and any prior periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless specifically expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This MD&A refers to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognised measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. The Company’s definitions of non-IFRS measures used in this MD&A may not be the same as the definitions for such measures used by other companies in their reporting. Non-IFRS measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. The

  • 3 -

Company uses non-IFRS financial measures to provide investors with supplemental measures of its operating performance and to eliminate items that have less bearing on operating performance or operating conditions and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Specifically, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with the Company’s results under IFRS and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about the Company’s business without regard to potential distortions. By eliminating potential differences in results of operations between periods caused by factors such as depreciation and amortization methods and share-based compensation, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful additional basis for comparing the current performance of the underlying operations being evaluated. The Company believes that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS financial measures in the evaluation of issuers. The Company’s management also uses non-IFRS financial measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period.

EBITDA ” represents the Company’s operating profit before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

Adjusted EBITDA ” represents the EBITDA adjusted for the exclusion of share-based compensation and one-time non-operating expenses.

See “Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures” for a reconciliation of each non-IFRS measure to its most directly comparable IFRS measure.

Company Overview

Zoomd, the Company’s wholly-owned operating subsidiary located in Israel, was incorporated on November 29, 2012 and began operating in 2013 in the area of web search and user behavior-based analytics. In 2017, Zoomd acquired the mobile marketing company “Moblin”. In September 2019, through a qualifying transaction (the “ Qualifying Transaction ”) undertaken pursuant to the rules of the TSX Venture Exchange (“ TSXV ”), Zoomd became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, a reporting issuer in Alberta and British Columbia whose common shares are traded on the TSXV. The Company has developed and acquired proprietary patented technology and targets the needs of various segments of the digital marketing industry. It is focused on efficient mobile user acquisition for companies and advertisers. The Company leverages unique tools for publishers, based on onsite search providing increased monetization and engagement for publishers, as well as a mobile user acquisition platform and managed services to advertisers. The Company offers its services globally through its agents and other business partners all over the globe. As such, the Company operates in collaboration with hundreds of publishers and global advertisers.

The Company endeavors to permanently generate clear added value to its customers. The Company’s current and future product development roadmap includes self-serve products integrated to various digital media sources, consolidating them. Enabling its customers to reach the best “value for money” targeting user acquisition and retention focused needs, for each media source in any screen, or platform integrated to Zoomd. The Company continuously monitors and considers adding new distribution media channels to its platform for updated customer needs.

The Company is focusing its efforts, which are based on long-term trends within the online advertising industry, in line with its basic strategies of:

  • Providing customers digital, mobile focused advertising technologies, products and services for improving their media buying effectiveness, cost and measurement. Lowering and maximising their user acquisition and retention costs.

  • 4 -

  • Enabling customers to manage their user acquisition campaign budgets on multiple digital channels, screens and platforms including social networks, ad networks, exchanges, content discovery platforms, influencers, connected TV(CTV), all using data driven KPI-based technology.

  • Managing all campaign related key information parameters, based on each advertiser’s measurement KPI’s, under a single system including, if requested: the cost of media, cost of acquisition, Lifetime Value (LTV), ROAS (Return On Ad Spend) and other key metrics, while working towards integrating full automation, AI and ML-based prediction algorithms into the platform.

  • Offering extra tools and features as part of its product offering in an attempt to simplify campaign management tasks. Such extra tools and features include creative studio editing capabilities for quick ad adjustments, extra layers of user data from app stores and unique optimization abilities for saving time and resources on campaign management tasks.

Competitive Advantages

Two main products and services are offered by the Company, with different target audiences:

  • For advertisers: a unified mobile user acquisition platform for managing user acquisition activity, under one control center. Platform includes various products and services for supplying the customer’s needs.

  • For publishers: an internal site search engine, supplying the publisher with the ability to implement search and monetization tools for their site.

The Company competes both with companies that provide internal site search solutions and companies that provide mobile and general digital media buying solutions, focused on mobile apps and user acquisition mainly but not only. Management is not aware of any other company that offers an internal site search solution while also providing mobile and general digital media buying solutions.

Management believes that the Company’s platform already has competitive advantages over similar products and services offered by competitors. The Company’s belief is based on the following:

  • For advertisers: the Company is focused mainly but not only on mobile user acquisition, integrating a wide range of media sources to its platform under various products. This saves campaign managers time and permits advertisers to scale their campaigns by adding new media sources, without having to handle new dashboards or platforms to manage such media sources.

  • For publishers: the Company offers a fully customised search tool for free, using a revenueshare model with the publisher (as a partner).

The Company’s competitive advantage can be summarized as follows:

  • The Company’s advertising solution is built as a software layer on the ecosystem. It is integrated into hundreds of media channels, consolidating data and streaming it into a centralized platform, giving the advertiser the ability to analyse and optimise campaigns on hundreds of channels, thereby saving the advertiser resources and maximising their advertising budget. There is no dependency on any specific supplier or traffic channel.

  • 5 -

  • Saving time and resources for advertisers, giving them better clarity and more consolidated insights

  • The platform and its products do not require an SDK (Software Development Kit) to be implemented.

  • It is the view of management that, as a layer on the ecosystem, the Company is well positioned within the industry. While the Company’s platform and products have a low impact with respect of privacy, tracking and measurement changes, the industry is going through various privacy-centered initiatives, including iOS 14, forward identifier blocking and Google’s third party cookie tracking restrictions that are expected to be implemented in the near future. The privacy changes are affecting advertisers’ budget allocations, hurting mainly the social media channels. Advertisers’ acquisition costs in these channels rose rapidly and advertisers are finding it harder to succeed and scale as in the past. Zoomd’s platform offers advertisers a wide range and various types of media channels, from social to programmatic, OEM’s, SDK networks and more. Their KPI’s are achieved in all channels together, or as a mix. With low dependency on one or two media channels, With Zoomd, advertisers can try a lot more channels under one place without engaging and managing campaigns separately in each media channel.

  • The Company is not reliant on the Google/Facebook “duopoly”. They are a part of the Company’s offering, but if not performing well, will not be allocated a portion of the media budgets. The Company’s platform offers numerous acquisition channels including social, global publishers, SDK ad networks, DSP’s, mobile operators, device manufactures and more. KPIs can be achieved, in scale, with less dependency on the “duopoly”.

  • In Q1 2022, the Company acquired Albert Technologies Ltd. (“ Albert ”), a U.S.-based artificial intelligence SaaS marketing platform for advertisers which primarily uses the Google and Facebook platforms. Albert integrates to the advertisers existing ad accounts and the AI engines manage all campaign-related tasks automatically, with no manual intervention required. With the acquisition of Albert, the Company can now offer its existing and new customers a SaaSbased solution for managing full funnel marketing campaigns.

  • Following the acquisition of Performance Revenues Ltd. in the beginning of 2021, the Company has structured a dedicated department focused on influencer and creators marketing. Aimed to utilize and supply the demand for the growing channel of influencer marketing, Zoomd is offering its clients more ways to generate new users and more channels to run their user acquisition campaigns and distribute their digital assets.

  • As the industry is rapidly changing, the Company invests resources on market analysis, customer management and research and development to maintain its competitive advantage and refine its product to further differentiate itself from the competitors in order to build a healthy base for future growth.

  • Self-serve products – the Company’s strategy includes the expansion of self-managed products offered to advertisers and publishers, all based on the Company’s main platform. The selfmanaged products are and will be offered to various types of customers and will expand the company’s total addressable market (TAM). The self serve products are offered in two main business models, depending on the product:

  • SaaS – generating ARR and long time relationships.

  • Media usage - based on managed media budgets.

Financial Operations Overview

Our results have been characterized by a rapid growth in the first half of the year, offset by slowdown in the second half. The offset was in such magnitude as to offset the growth in the first half, and to resulted in an apparent flat revenue when comparing 2022 with 2021.

To support our rapid growth, experienced in the first half of 2022, we increased our headcount, including the acquisition of Albert, which has increased our level of operating expenses and our burn rate. In the 2[nd] half, even with the significand decrease in growth explained above, we have maintained the same level of operating expenses in anticipation of return to growth.

Financial Period Ended December 31, 2022.

Revenue

The Company generates revenue primarily from two different models:

  • (a) Revenues from advertisers are derived from actual key performance indicators (KPIs) achieved. The KPIs used most frequently are cost per install (CPI), cost per event (CPE), cost per click (CPC) or cost per mille (CPM). Alternatively, the Company may use an agreement whereby the revenue is based on a fixed percentage, by using traffic sources as publishers, ad networks and demand side platforms (DSPs). At the end of each month, the revenues from these advertisers are calculated and recognised, taking into consideration any contractual cap with such advertisers.

  • (b) Revenue from advertisers that is derived from the Company-installed search engine on a publisher’s site. When an end-customer is using the Company’s engine, the Company generates revenue from the advertisers, with whom it has a contracted budget that is based on the number of views / impressions and shares the revenues with the publishers.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales is comprised primarily from costs paid to the publisher or traffic source, for delivering the acquired results (KPI’s, CPI, CPE, CPC, CPM) given by the advertisers, or with whom the Company shares the revenues it collects from the advertisers.

Operating Cost and Expenses

The Company’s operating costs and expenses are classified into two categories: research and development expenses and all others (e.g., selling, general and administrative expenses). Operating costs also include amortization of intangible assets acquired in the business combination, and amortization of capitalized software development costs. Both have affected the operating margins.For each category, the largest component is typically personnel costs, which consists of salaries, employee benefits, retention costs for Albert employees who joined the Company after the acquisition, and share-based compensation. Operating costs and expenses also include allocated overhead costs for depreciation of equipment. Operating costs and expenses are generally recognised as incurred.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development activities are central to the Company’s business. The Company expects to continue its research and development investments in order to reach its planned milestones of the development product roadmap. The Company’s research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, payment to subcontractors, cloud infrastructure, retention payments, depreciation and amortization expenses and share-based compensation. The Company capitalizes certain internal and

  • 8 -

external software development costs, consisting primarily of direct labor associated with creating the internally developed software.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

The Company’s selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel expenses for the Company’s sales, marketing, retention payments, executive, finance, legal, human resources and administrative personnel. It also includes professional service fees and other general corporate expenses, such as communication, depreciation and amortization, public relations, travel expenses and other office expenses.

The Company expects that its selling, general and administrative expenses will increase in the future. The Company targets global expansion with partners and establishing local operations in specific regions. It also anticipates additional general and administrative costs associated with being a public company. These public company-related expense increases are anticipated to include the costs of additional subsidiaries in various countries, legal fees, accounting and audit fees, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance premiums and costs related to investor relations.

Finance Income and Finance Expenses

Foreign currency transactions are translated into United States dollars using the exchange rates prevailing as at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are re-measured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Net Income (Loss) to “ finance expenses ” and “ finance income ”.

Overview of Operating Results

Twelve and three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to twelve and three months ended December 31, 2021

Revenues

For the year ended December 31, 2022, revenues amounted to $53,023, as compared to $52,585 for the year ended December 31, 2021, an increase of approximately $438 year over year. The increase in revenues is primarily due to increases in gross spend by existing customers as well as expanded distribution with new customers, and the deployment and expansion of new services and features. The described annual increase was offset mainly in the second half of the year, by the decrease in the Fintech and Cryptocurrency sectors that cut ad budgets and affected most ad tech and media based companies globally, including META and Google.

Due to the fluctuating budgets of the Fintech and Cryptocurrency sectors, we continue to diversify our business by increasing our exposure to sectors such as E-commerce, iGaming and CPG companies.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, revenues amounted to $10,766, as compared to $18,691 for the three months ended December 31, 2021, a decrease of approximately 42% year over year. The decrease in revenues is primarily as a result of global macroeconomic conditions that impact client advertising budgets in general and especially in areas of Fintech and in particular Cryptocurrency.

  • 9 -

Cost of Sales

For the year ended December 31, 2022, cost of sales amounted to $36,415, or 69% of revenues, as compared to $36,294, with the same percentage of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021. There is no change in the gross profit between the periods.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, cost of sales amounted to $6,716, as compared to $13,049 for the three months ended December 31, 2021, a decrease of $6,333 or 49% year over year. The decrease is primarily attributed to the decrease in revenues.

Notes:

  1. The increase in the R&D salaries and related expenses, subcontractors and services expenses are attributed primarily to the salary payments to the new employees who joined the Company and salaries and retention payments of $1,225 to new R&D employees who were previously employed by Albert and joined Zoomd after the acquisition. The change in the fourth quarter is relatively higher than the yearly average, since during the fourth quarter the Company ceased to capitalize software development costs for its internally developed self-serve product, due to the decrease in growth in the 2[nd] half, the expected recovery of the costs capitalized may be lower than anticipated and may come, partially, from synergies with the IP acquired from Albert.

  2. The increase in Depreciation and Amortization expenses is mainly due to the amortization of costs which were capitalized during 2021 and 2022. Additionally, during Q4, the company accelerated amortization in the amount of $434 which the management believes reflects the useful life and expected recovery amount of the costs capitalized balance.

  3. The S&M salaries and related expenses mainly increased due to salaries and retention payments to new S&M employees who joined the Company after the acquisition of Albert and new employees who joined the Company as a direct result of the Company’s growth at the first half of 2022 and to support future growth.

  4. The increase in other G&A and S&M expenses is mainly due to one-time expenses associated with moving the Company to new offices. Additionally, the costs of professional liability insurance, and directors’ and officers’ insurance were increased
