VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Wishpond Technologies Ltd. (TSXV: WISH) (OTCQX: WPNDF) (the “Company” or “Wishpond”), a provider of AI-enabled marketing-focused online business solutions, announces that it has filed its interim consolidated financial statements (the “Interim Financial Statements”) and management’s discussion and analysis (the “MD&A”) for Q2-2026, representing the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. Copies of the Interim Financial Statements and MD&A are available on the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Jordan Gutierrez, Wishpond’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The second quarter was a transition period for Wishpond. With the spin-out of SalesCloser Technologies Ltd. (“SalesCloser”) and the divestiture of Viral Loops Limited (“Viral Loops”) both completed in the first quarter, our work in Q2 was focused internally – aligning the Company’s cost structure to the size of the business and focusing on the core marketing technology platform.”

Adrian Lim, Wishpond’s Chief Financial Officer, commented, “Our priorities through the balance of 2026 are a leaner operating base, improved retention in the core platform and disciplined execution. Wishpond shareholders also continue to participate in SalesCloser’s progress through the Company’s approximately 62.87% interest in SalesCloser.”

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights:

Wishpond achieved quarterly revenue of $2,350,470 during Q2-2026 (Q2-2025: $3,710,437).  The decline primarily reflected the disposal of substantially all of the assets of the Viral Loops business on March 9, 2026, which removed a full quarter of Viral Loops’ revenues from the Company’s revenue base, together with reduced contribution from lower-margin revenue streams and lower sales capacity following cost optimization initiatives.Wishpond achieved Gross Profit of $1,556,859 in Q2-2026 (Q2-2025: $2,527,282). The reduction in Gross Profit is primarily due to lower revenue in the quarter.Wishpond achieved a Gross Margin percentage of 66% during Q2-2026 (Q2-2025: 68%).During Q2-2026, Wishpond reported negative Adjusted EBITDA(1) of $1,569,306 (Q2-2025: negative $228,116). The quarter’s net loss of $2,160,836 includes $202,129 of reverse takeover listing expenses and $138,168 of stock-based compensation expenses, together totalling $340,297. The substantial majority of the charges arising from the SalesCloser qualifying transaction – a $2,648,096 reverse takeover listing expense and $1,223,180 of stock-based compensation – were recognized in Q1-2026 on closing of the transaction on March 26, 2026 and are reflected in the six-month figures below. Net loss for the quarter and the six-month period also reflects the derecognition of accounts payable balances of $179,819 that are no longer considered payable, recognized as a non-cash gain in other income. Of the Q2-2026 net loss, $1,490,661 is attributable to shareholders of Wishpond and $670,175 to the non-controlling interest in SalesCloser. Wishpond’s consolidated results include SalesCloser, which remains in a growth and investment phase and contributed negative Adjusted EBITDA of $1,421,113 in the quarter; excluding that contribution, Wishpond’s core business generated negative Adjusted EBITDA of $148,193.

Events Subsequent to June 30, 2026:

On July 27, 2026, the Company received a notice of default from its senior lender in respect of a financial covenant under a forbearance agreement with the senior lender (the “Forbearance Agreement”). The breach arose partially from the timing of the Viral Loops divestiture relative to the forecast against which such covenant was measured. The lender has not waived the default and has reserved its rights and, as at the date of hereof, has not demanded repayment or termination of the Forbearance Agreement. As disclosed in Note 1 to the Interim Financial Statements, these events and conditions indicate a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Outlook:

For 2026, Wishpond is focused on strengthening its core marketing technology platform and sales solutions business, with an emphasis on its core Wishpond marketing suite, improving operating efficiency and enhancing financial flexibility. Following the completion of the Viral Loops divestiture and the SalesCloser transaction subsequent to year-end, the Company is focused on executing against its core business and aligning resources around the products, services and customer relationships that management believes are most central to Wishpond’s long-term operating performance.

The Company has taken steps in 2025 and 2026 to streamline operations and align its cost structure more closely with revenue levels, and management intends to continue those efforts through the second half of 2026. Wishpond remains focused on supporting the performance of its core platform and product suite, improving customer acquisition and retention and continuing to develop AI-enabled capabilities intended to enhance the effectiveness of its marketing and sales solutions.

Following the completion of the SalesCloser transaction, Wishpond continues to maintain exposure to SalesCloser through its 62.87% ownership interest as at June 30, 2026, while management remains focused on executing against the Company’s core marketing technology business. Jordan Gutierrez was appointed Chief Executive Officer of Wishpond effective March 26, 2026, and the Company enters the balance of 2026 with a more focused operating structure and clearer strategic priorities.

Management’s key priorities for 2026 are as follows:

strengthen organic revenue performance;improve margins and operating efficiency through disciplined cost management;reduce churn and increase long-term customer value; andimprove liquidity and financial flexibility.

Cautionary Statements, Summary Information

Information presented in this press release may be only a summary of all available information and does not purport to be a full representation of all figures, notes and discussions provided for in the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A. Readers are cautioned to read the entirety of the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A, and to not rely only on the information presented in this press release. In the event of conflict between the provisions of this press release on the one hand, and the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A on the other hand, the information in the Interim Financial Statements and the MD&A shall govern.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this press release, Wishpond has used the following terms (“Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) that are not defined by IFRS, but are used by management to evaluate the performance of Wishpond and its business, including: Adjusted EBITDA. These measures may also be used by investors, financial institutions and credit rating agencies to assess Wishpond’s performance and ability to service debt. Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Securities regulations require that Non-GAAP Financial Measures are clearly defined, qualified and reconciled to their most comparable IFRS financial measures. The intent of Non-GAAP Financial Measures is to provide additional useful information to investors and analysts, and the measures should not be considered in isolation or used as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other issuers may calculate Non-GAAP Financial Measures differently. Non-GAAP Financial Measures are identified and defined as follows:

Adjusted EBITDA: Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings, cash flow from operating activities or other measures of financial results determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles as an indicator of the Company’s performance. The Company defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as Income or Loss before income taxes less interest, depreciation and amortization, remeasurement of contingent consideration liability, filing fees, credit facility setup and renewal fees, earn-out remuneration, foreign currency losses (gains), acquisition related expenses, reverse takeover listing expense, net other expenditures (income), and stock-based compensation. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful financial metric as it measures cash generated from operations which the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives.
