Before we begin with prepared remarks, just a couple of comments.

Today's discussion will include adjusted financial measures, which are non-IFRS measures.

These should be considered as a supplement to and not a substitute for IFRS financial measures. Note that all figures on this call are presented in U.S.

With that said, let me now turn the call over to Amit Bohensky, founder and chairman of Zoomd. Amit, please proceed.

Amit Bohensky

Thank you, Ben, and good morning to all of you. We are pleased to speak with you today regarding our first quarter 2026 results.

As we recently announced the launch of NCIB under which we may purchase up to approximately 10% of our public float. We believe the current market valuation of Zoomd does not appreciably reflect the strength of our balance sheet, our long-term business prospects, and the strategic initiatives currently underway and the strategic position we continue to build in the market.

With approximately $22.5 million in cash, no bank debt, and continued positive operating cash flow, we believe we are in a strong position to continue investing in growth initiatives while also executing on the capital allocation strategy. Importantly, the NCIB provides us with flexibility.

We will remain disciplined and opportunistic in how we approach share repurchase while continuing prioritize long-term value creation for our shareholders. As discussed previously, two major customers implemented changes to their operating models reflecting ongoing adjustment in customer acquisition strategies and KPI measurement as part of a broader shift in digital marketing landscape.

We continue to actively work with both clients following these changes, maintaining our position as a trusted partner supporting their long-term growth objectives. With one of these clients, visibility regarding the timing and extent of the potential recovery remains limited.

With the second customer, we are seeing growth and remain optimistic that anticipates the trend and will continue. We believe the current period reflects an ongoing transition in customer activity mix rather than a fundamental change in our long-term growth strategy.

We also continue to expand and diversify our customer base. During 2025, we expanded our presence across North America and Europe, adding more than 20 new clients across the iGaming, FinTech, and e-commerce verticals, including Silver Social and SportyBet.

Based on the typical revenue ramp-up cycle, management expects these customers wins to contribute more meaningfully during 2026. These customers onboard continued approximately 30% of our company's revenues during the quarter, supporting the company's transition forward a broader and more diversified revenue profile.

We believe these developments support the operation of a healthier, more diversified, and resilient long-term revenue base. As part of our growth strategy, we continue to advance strategic partnerships that should accelerate revenue growth alongside the collaboration with E2.

We initiated an additional partnership during the year, currently in a POC stages, focused on expanding capabilities across broader range of digital and multimedia distribution channels. We are expanding the resources dedicated to this initiative and we believe they will contribute over the coming quarters.

During the quarter, we implemented a series of cost alignment measure designed to better align our cost structure with current activity levels. These measures included, among other actions, a reduction of approximately 20% of company's workforce across multiple departments, as well as additional expense reduction in operating expenses.

These measures were primarily focused on operational efficiencies and are not expected to impact the company continued investment in growth initiatives, business development, and technology capabilities. Now, I would like to turn to our products and service offering as it is important to investors to understand our competitive advantage and why clients are coming to us.

Our competitive edge stems from our comprehensive 360-degree approach to digital performance with a mobile-first focus, all designed to help our clients achieve their goals. We offer a wide range of solutions tailored to digital and mobile performance, enabling us to deliver a holistic suite of products and services that drive measurable results against our clients' digital performance KPIs.

Zoomd utilizes a combination of research and development, acquisitions, and methodologies to improve its offering. One of the core strengths in our transparent, direct, and intensive client communication, unlike many of our industry peers, we don't operate through agencies.

We work directly with our clients, engaging with the Chief Revenue Officer side of the organization. The relationship positions us not only just as a vendor, but also as a trusted advisor.

The depth of this engagement fosters a long-term partnership, significantly reduce churn, and creates strong opportunities for revenue growth within our existing client base. This approach enables a real-time campaign management without delays, and even while simultaneously handling multiple campaigns across various geographies.

This unique approach position us as a semi-human, semi-automated command-and-control platform, effectively combining advanced technology and strategic insights. We closely monitor and respond not only to shifts in clients' strategy, but also to broader macroeconomic changes beyond the clients' direct control.

As a result, we empower our clients to swiftly adapt market fluctuations, maximizing their impact and driving significant customers globally. Our main platform is integrated into hundreds of media sources, allowing us to promote customers' digital assets on multiple channels under our one system.

We use a DSP for programmatic media buying. The DSP is integrated into biggest mobile media exchanges, providing our customers with full range and research for their mobile web and app performance needs.

We optimize the advertiser's resources and maximize their advertising budget and efficiency. There is no dependency on any specific media supplier or traffic channel.

This is not only saves the valuable time and resource for the advertiser, but also provides an enhanced clarity and controlled insights. Beyond the walled gardens such as Google and Meta, the open marketing landscape is fragmented.

Zoomd enables advertisers to leverage a wide range of various types of media channels from social, programmatic, OEMs, SDK networks, and more. Their KPIs are achieved on all channels together as a mix.

I will now review the first quarter of 2026 financial results in detail. Revenue: Revenues in quarter one '26 were $6.9 million, a 62% decrease from Q1 '25, reflecting the continued impact of operating model changes implemented by two major customers.

Gross margin: Gross margin in Q1 '26 was 34% compared to 44% in Q1 '25, driven by changes in customer mix. Variations in gross margins across periods remain within our representative profitability range.

Operating expenses: Total operating expenses for quarter one '26 were $3 million, a 6% decline compared to Q1 '25. During the quarter, we implemented cost optimization measures designed to better align our cost structure with current activity levels.

These actions included reduction of approximately 20% of the company workspace, alongside additional expense reduction initiatives. As many of these actions were implemented during the quarter, most of the expected savings are anticipated to be reflected in the beginning of Q2 '26, and these actions were primarily focused on efficiency improvements and are not expected to impact to any of the company continued investments in growth initiatives, business development, and technology capabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA is used as a primary performance measure for the company's management to ensure it has the right structure to support future growth. We define adjusted EBITDA as an earning before interest, tax, depreciation, and one-time payments, and amortization, as adjusted for share-based payments and non-recurring operating expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 '26 was negative $300,000 compared to $5.2 million in Q1 '25, primarily reflecting lower revenues. A full reconciliation of the adjusted EBITDA is available in our MD&A filings.

Net income: Net loss for Q1 '26 was $0.5 million compared to the net income of $4.8 million in Q1 '25, in line with the factors explained above. Cash position and cash flow: Cash flow from operations was $0.6 million in Q1 '26.

As of March 31, '26, the company had a cash balance of $22.5 million and no bank debt. Before we move to the Q&A, I would like to thank all our employees for the hard work and dedication, as well as our investors for their continued support.

I want also to thank you for joining us today for your continued interest in Zoomd. Before we conclude, I'd like to say that some of you are already in direct contact with me, but I am always available.

Please feel free to reach out directly over email or WhatsApp at any time. Thank you again for your time, your support, and your continued trust with us.

Operator

Thank you. We will now begin the question-and-answer session.

To ask a question, you may press star then one on your touch-tone phone. If you are using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys.

If at any time your question has been addressed and you would like to withdraw your question, please press star then two. The first question comes from Martin Toner from ATB.

Please go ahead.

Amit Bohensky

Can you raise your voice?

Martin Toner

Hold on 1 sec. Apologies.

Thank you very much for taking my question. Amit, can you comment on the status of the customers whose relationship has been disrupted?

What progress have you made to restart them? Do you have any timelines for when that will happen and when they can return to their previous revenue levels?

Amit Bohensky

We have actually two main clients that made those shifts actually in their measurements. Those clients are active with us and we are serving for them as trusted advisors.

They already allocated the changes they needed to do, and one of those clients already started gradually to increase revenues with us, and in fact we are very optimistic with the work with that client. We can't share more information, but it will be reflected in the next coming quarters regarding that client.

For the second client, visibility is still limited as we can't know yet the speed that they will come back, but we are working with that client at working that processes. We believe it will take not more than a couple of quarters till we grow with them to the expected levels.

Martin Toner

By grow, do you mean grow from previous levels or return or get close to previous levels?

Amit Bohensky

We can't share that information as there are even more developments with them on additional business models that we are working with them as part of our services. If we serve for them in one specific model, we are now asked to help them in some others application acquisitions and other type of marketing processes as well.

We can't tell yet if it will be the same size, higher size, but there's no doubt that it looks good, and it will be reflected soon.

Martin Toner

Awesome. Thank you.

Can you talk a little about the World Cup? Does the status of these customers affect the potential for you guys to do some revenue during World Cup?

Just talk a little bit about the potential for that event for your revenue.

Amit Bohensky

For the sake of World Cup, we did several relevant partnerships with different sports betting and other type of service providers that are having different applications that we are promoting for them. World Cup reflection will be somewhere between Q3 and Q4.

It's always with a delay from the moment there is any type of payment, and we are expecting to enjoy from that.

Martin Toner

Awesome. That's great.

Thanks. Talk a little bit about some of your new customers.

How long do you think it will take for them to ramp to significant levels? I'm thinking of similar to levels of some of your other most important clients, like say a $1 million annual revenue run rate.

How long does it take to get a new customer to that level of revenue?

Amit Bohensky

We continue to see healthy activity in the pipeline across multiple verticals and geographies. Similar to what we saw during 2025, we do see a lot of opportunities across segments such as e-commerce, and entertainment, and crypto, and FinTech, alongside continued expansions into additional geographies.

As always, pipeline takes a couple of months from a client till we see substantial revenues. A client that spends about a $1 million, it's from the moment that it starts with us, will take roughly about 10 months to a year till a client like that becomes significant.

Martin Toner

Perfect. That helps a lot.

Okay. Can you talk about with your workforce reductions, would you be profitable at the current revenue level, like Q1's revenue level?

Amit Bohensky

Tzvika will take this answer.

Tzvika Adler

Those reductions won't impact our growth. The measures which were taken are mainly focused on improving efficiency and adjusting the cost structure to current activity levels.

The workforce reduction was done across multiple departments as part of the broader efficiency process. We didn't reduce expenses related to tech, biz dev, or growth.

It will take a quarter or two till we will see the fully influences of those number and on the bottom line together with our growth.

Martin Toner

I'm guessing after the impact of that reduction, at say a $10 million quarterly run rate revenue run rate, Zoomd will be profitable?

Tzvika Adler

Listen. If we're talking in terms of EBITDA, we are in a negative EBITDA of $300,000.

If our gross margin is something around 30%, 35%, it means that in extra $1 million of revenues, we are breakeven, you can make the calculation. It's not a big gap.

If we're looking at the new customers that just joined, which Amit were talking about them, we're optimistic.

Martin Toner

That's great. Last one for me.

What amount of cash are you guys comfortable having on the balance sheet? Just kind of wondering how much of the buyback you guys are comfortable with.

Yeah.

Tzvika Adler

Our run rate without any revenues, just the burn, is something around almost $1 million per Q. As we saw, with minimal revenues with a minimal growth of the current revenues, we are breakeven.

We feel really comfortable with our cash balance at the date since we have more than $20 million that are held in short-term deposits. We have also a credit line from the bank of $3 million that we're not using it, but it's open credit line, we feel really comfortable with our current balances.

Martin Toner

Super. That's it for me.

Thank you for taking my questions.

Amit Bohensky

Thanks, Martin.

Tzvika Adler

Thank you very much.

Operator

If you have a question, please press star one. I can turn the call back over to Ben for additional questions, please.

Thank you.

Ben Shamsian

Thank you. We have some additional questions that were sent to us via the webcast.

Amit, at what pace do you expect the new customers to ramp going forward?

Amit Bohensky

Typically, it takes one or two quarters for new customers to move through onboarding, optimization into more meaningful scaling. The pace then can vary depending on verticals, and geos, and KPIs, different in industries and different countries, and also depend on customer maturity.

We generally prefer to stable and controlled scaling rather than pushing aggressive growth too early, but it takes usually about two quarters.

Ben Shamsian

Thank you. We have another question regarding customers.

What does the pipeline of new customers look like, and can you provide some specificity there?

Amit Bohensky

We continue to see expansion in the pipeline across multiple verticals and in different categories as e-commerce, and in entertainment, crypto, FinTech. Those categories are growing, and we could feel that, also within those categories in different new geos that are opening.

As always, pipeline and conversation timing can vary, but we continue to onboard new customers and expanding existing partnerships. It looks good.

Ben Shamsian

Thank you. Operator, I don't think we have any more questions.

Operator

Thank you. This concludes our question-and-answer session.

I would like to turn the conference back over to Amit Bohensky for closing remarks.

Amit Bohensky
