Imperus Technologies Corp. Pre-Announces Fourth Quarter Diwip and Akamon Revenue and EBITDA

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Jan. 28, 2016) - Imperus Technologies Corp. ("Imperus" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:LAB)(FRANKFURT:ISX)(FRANKFURT WKN:A12B58) pre-announces its expected unaudited stand-alone revenue and adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2015 for its Diwip Ltd. ("Diwip") and Akamon Entertainment Millenium, S.L., ("Akamon") operating businesses. Imperus expects to report revenue of approximately CAD $8.3 million and adjusted EBITDA of approximately CAD$2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Akamon operating activities are consolidated into Imperus starting November 16, 2015.

Had Akamon been fully consolidated, revenue and adjusted EBITDA for Akamon and Diwip on a combined basis, excluding Imperus overheads, for the full fourth quarter of 2015 would have been CAD$10.8 million and CAD$4.2 million respectively, compared to Revenue of CAD$10.7 million and EBITDA of CAD$3.9 million for the third quarter of 2015.

Akamon's December 2015 revenue grew 8.1% over revenues earned in November 2015, resulting in Akamon's highest revenue month since its foundation in July 2011. Akamon's revenue growth can be attributed to a strong performance in France which has become one of Akamon's top three markets along with Spain and Brazil. In addition to the expansion in its French business, Akamon is seeing strong growth in its slots app within all of its platforms (desktop, canvas and mobile), as well as increased retention numbers in its newest app, "Viva Bingo and Slots". Diwip's financial and operational performance remains in line with expectations.

James Lanthier, CEO of Imperus, stated: "We are pleased with our Q4 results, which show the enduring and growing profitability of our businesses. We are even more excited about Imperus's future and the operational progress we have been making in realizing the benefits of bringing Akamon and Diwip together."

Akamon and Diwip Ltd. have also started development of two key projects aimed at ensuring continuous content and feature updates for its joint two million monthly active users. Specifically, Diwip users will have access to Akamon's HD premium video slots through an integration of these innovative games to make them accessible from key apps such as "Best Casino" and both companies will offer combined rewards in a new joint loyalty program. Both projects are scheduled to be offered to users during Q1 2016.

Vicenc Marti, President of Imperus stated: "We are looking forward to 2016, which will be the first year in which Imperus will benefit from the full year effect of having two great social casino assets, Diwip and Akamon, collaborating together to multiply each company's already strong performances in Q4 2015."
