VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Liquid Media Group Ltd. (the “Company,” “Liquid Media” or “Liquid”) (NASDAQ: YVR), a business solutions company empowering independent producers and content creators from inception through monetization, today reported financial results for its first quarter of fiscal year (FY) 2022, ended February 28, 2022. All amounts are stated in US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Highlights:

• Sales for the first quarter of FY 2022 were $577,689, up $567,807 from the comparable quarter of FY 2021.
• Gross profit for the first quarter was $39,276, an improvement of $167,228 from the 2021 first-quarter gross profit (loss) of ($127,981).
• Increases in sales and first-quarter gross profit resulted primarily from the acquisitions of iNDIEFLIX Group Inc. (“iNDIEFLIX”) on September 21, 2021 and iGEMStv, Inc. (“iGEMStv”) on December 14, 2021, respectively. Operations and results for iNDIEFLIX and iGEMStv were included in Liquid Media’s consolidated financial results from their respective closing dates.
• Net loss for the first quarter was ($870,720) or ($0.05) per share compared to a loss of ($1,518,143) or ($0.14) per share for the comparable quarter of FY 2021.
• Liquid had cash of $3,574,605 and $450,775 in receivables as of February 28, 2022.

“Liquid is thrilled by the significant revenue growth we have achieved through our acquisition strategy, which continues to increase the value that our four-stage, inception-to-monetization solution engine is offering for independent creators,” said Ron Thomson, CEO of Liquid Media. “We see this positive growth continuing to build in the year ahead, as Digital Cinema United and others join the group, driving further momentum.”

Recent corporate highlights that contributed to Liquid’s strong revenue performance in the fiscal first quarter and/or have been catalysts for the Company’s progress include:

• On February 11, 2022, Liquid announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire DCU, which provides content supply chain technology and services supporting independent IP owners, producers, sales agents, alternative content distributors, downstream media platforms and studios. The DCU acquisition was subsequently completed on March 7, 2022.
• On January 21, 2022, Liquid announced the first online public access to the iNDIEFLIX documentary film “Angst,” which raises awareness and opens up the conversation around anxiety. It was previously shown only in community screenings to benefit over two million people worldwide. Streaming was hosted exclusively on the blockchain via Eluvio and it incorporated an NFT collection for social good.
• On January 5, 2022, Liquid launched its blockchain framework during the 2022 Sundance Film Festival, the largest and most prestigious annual independent film festival in the United States. This included an iNDIEFLIX film streaming of “Angst,” hosted on the Eluvio Content Fabric with associated community NFTs.
• On December 7, 2021, Liquid announced the Company’s professional blockchain approach in development with Eluvio. The framework is designed to enable the benefits of blockchain, including owner-controlled distribution and monetization opportunities, for independent creators. It also leverages tokenization and NFTs as value-adds for filmmakers across the content lifecycle.

“Liquid’s continued progress and revenue growth is beginning to show investors what our innovative business engine, strategic partnerships and growth-by-acquisition strategy are capable of representing in terms of increased shareholder value,” said Thomson. “We believe the global entertainment industry will continue to recognize the substantial benefits we create for independents, which generates a substantial opportunity to inject further value for the Company and its shareholders. Liquid looks forward to building on these successes as we move forward in demonstrating longevity in our approach to the industry and investor community.”

This earnings release and financial information for the quarter ended February 28, 2022 should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis document, which will be filed on SEDAR and EDGAR.
