Q3 2020 Financial Results

Notes:

1. See “Non-IFRS financial measures” for further information.

Total revenues for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020 increased by $2,037,507 or 52.2% over the same period in 2019. Revenues for our Apps segment increased by $981,292 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. Apps revenue includes $864,702 of additional revenue contributed by Foursixty Inc during the 2020 period. Revenues for our Themes segment increased by $769,492 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in revenues in 2020 can be attributed to an increase in customer demand for these services as the economy saw a shift to online shopping as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing measures. Revenues for our Agency segment increased by $286,723 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019. This increase can be attributed to the purchase of Rehash in October 2019 as well as organic departmental growth in core agency sales.

“We are pleased with our third quarter results, which include our first full quarter of Foursixty,” said Chris Sparling, WeCommerce Chief Executive Officer. “As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the quarter saw increased adoption of ecommerce and associated revenues in all our divisions.”

Non-IFRS financial measures

This news release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognised measures under IFRS, and 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 our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures including “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA”. Management uses these non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. As required by Canadian securities laws, we reconcile these non-IFRS measures to the most comparable IFRS measures in our MD&A for Q3 2020.

Forward-looking-information may relate to WeCommerce’s future financial outlook and anticipated events or results and may include information regarding its financial position, business strategies, budgets, operations, financial results, taxes, dividend policy, plans and objectives. Particularly, information regarding the Company’s expectations of future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities or the markets in which it operates is forward-looking information.

In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but instead represent management's expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events or circumstances. If any of the opinions, estimates or assumptions underlying the forward-looking information prove incorrect, actual results or future events might vary materially from those expressed in the forward-looking information. The Company has no obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable securities laws in Canada. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking information as a result of various factors, including those described in "Risk Factors" which are described in the Company's most recent Management’s discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
