• Q4 Revenue of $2.1M million, up 9% year-over-year
• Q1 2023 results to be reported after the Nasdaq close on May 24
• Company to host conference call at 8 a.m. ET on Thursday, May 25

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 16, 2023 / Siyata Mobile Inc. (NASDAQ:SYTA)(NASDAQ:SYTAW) (“Siyata” or the “Company“), a global vendor of Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) devices and cellular signal booster systems, announced its financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022. All amounts are in US dollars unless otherwise indicated.

“We delivered top-line growth of 9% in the fourth quarter of 2022 on strengthening sales of our mission-critical PoC (MCPTT) SD7 solution,” said Marc Seelenfreund, Founder and CEO of Siyata. “Following the successful launch of our SD7 mid-year, total sales for the devices and related accessories exceeded $3 million in the second half of 2022. Recent orders in multiple verticals and particularly in the large-scale education vertical demonstrate the growing adoption of our solutions. Importantly, we are establishing ourselves in new markets beyond our core of first responders and emergency personnel with new distribution channels, particularly in North America, that we believe will drive our business to an inflection point as volumes continue to increase. Our pipeline of new opportunities continues to grow, and we expect the impact of the progress we are making will be more evident in our financial results in 2023.”

Seelenfreund continued, “In 2022, we significantly expanded our distribution platform by establishing partnerships with leading North American cellular carriers, including AT&T, FirstNet, Verizon, Bell and US Cellular. Since then, we have also added T-Mobile and a leading two-way radio distributor to our growing list of channel partners. Establishing these channels lays important groundwork for driving growth in 2023 and beyond. To support anticipated growth, we secured $3.6 million in additional financing through the sale of warrants and entered into an accounts receivable factoring facility subsequent to year-end. We are going after a multi billion dollar market opportunity and believe that we are well positioned to become a market leader in the Push to Talk Over Cellular arena.”

Key financial highlights for the 12 months ended December 31, 2022:

• Revenues were $6.5 million compared to $7.5 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2021.
• Net loss was $15.3 million as compared to a net loss of $23.6 million, which includes $5.6 million of impairment of goodwill and intangibles, in the same period in the prior year.
• Adjusted EBITDA was ($12.6) million versus ($12.4) million in the prior year.

Key financial highlights for the three months ended December 31, 2022:

• Revenues were $2.1 million compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. This increase of $174,000, or 9%, was due mainly to sales of the SD7 in Q4 2022 of $985,000, offset by the decrease in sales of the legacy products and boosters of $811,000.
• Net loss was $6.6 million as compared to a net loss of $5.0 million in the same period in the prior year.
• Adjusted EBITDA was negative $5.0 million versus negative $2.7 million in the same period in the prior year.
