Snipp Interactive Inc. Announces Q1 2015 Revenue Growth of 962% Compared to Q1 2014; Net Income Positive for Quarter

BETHESDA, MARYLAND--(Marketwired - June 1, 2015) - Snipp Interactive Inc. ("Snipp"), an international provider of mobile marketing solutions listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX VENTURE:SPN), is pleased to announce its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2015. A copy of the complete unaudited financial statements, management's discussion and analysis are available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).

Revenue in Q1 2015 was $3,705,800 compared to revenue of $3,562,045 for the entire 2014 fiscal year and represents revenue growth of 962% compared to Q1 2014 revenue of $349,082.

The increase in revenue is attributable to a multitude of factors including the acquisition of several new customers, the acquisition of Swiss Post Solutions Ireland, additional sales contracts from existing customers, the creation of new sales channels, and the launch of innovative new promotions-related products and solutions as part of Snipp's platform. The company is focused on continuing to increase revenue while maintaining a similar operating cost structure.

At the end of March 31, 2015, current assets were $10,373,415 and current liabilities $1,572,789.

Atul Sabharwal, CEO and Founder of Snipp commented, "We are extremely pleased with our Q1 2015 performance and the record revenue growth we just announced. Snipp is extremely well poised to take advantage of growth opportunities on multiple fronts. We successfully closed our first acquisition as announced on February 5, 2015 from our partners Swiss Post. This acquisition was the perfect strategic fit because it gave us a very strong enterprise class offering in the loyalty market and simultaneously expanded our geographic footprint. We will continue to exploit such strategic opportunities to consolidate what we view as a highly fragmented promotions market, even as we continue to pursue organic customer growth and geographic expansion. To continue to execute flawlessly we are also investing in talent and operations and I want to take this opportunity to thank my team and my Board for their support and hard work on getting us to where we are today."

Q1 2015 Highlights include:

• Completed Bought Deal Private Placement Financing for gross proceeds of C$12,277,500.
• Completed acquisition of Swiss Post Solutions Ireland Limited, a Customer Loyalty Management subsidiary of Swiss Post, which closed in February 2015.
• The company significantly increased its average campaign size, the number of campaigns executed and its revenue per employee as it leveraged its investments in infrastructure over the last three years to scale effectively.
• The company continued to focus on the promotions marketing space and has had significant traction with its SnippCheck receipt processing solution, which was successfully used by a variety of different clients for a variety of purchase-related promotions. Examples of programs conducted are available at www.snipp.com/clients.
• The company also delivered its SnippRebates solution, focused on the rebates market and allows clients to benefit via lower processing costs, increased transparency, better customer experiences and enhanced data capture; and SnippLoyalty, an enterprise loyalty solution targeted at brands looking to launch loyalty programs.
• The company has established itself in the US market as a premier promotions marketing company with an increasing number of Fortune 500 companies and leading advertising agencies directly reaching out to the company to solicit its services.
