*Non-IFRS Financial Measure
Readers are cautioned that "receipts" and "cash-flow positive" are a measure not recognized under IFRS. Total receipts includes the amount of cash received by the Company and its agents from the use of the Hello Pal app. Also, "cash-flow positive" means that the monthly cash flow generated by Hello Pal's Asian subsidiary is sufficient to meet all ongoing obligations of Hello Pal's Asian subsidiary. Under IFRS, total receipts may be higher than revenue as a portion of the revenue is received by agents of Hello Pal. However, the Company's management believes that "receipts" and "cash-flow positive" provides investors with insight into management's decision-making process because management uses this measure to run the business and make financial, strategic and operating decisions. Further, "receipts" and "cash-flow positive" also provides useful insight into the operating performance of the Hello Pal app. "Receipts" and "cash-flow positive" does not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Readers are cautioned that "receipts" and are not an alternative to measures determined in accordance with IFRS and should not, on their own, be construed as indicators of performance, cash flow or profitability.
