FINANCIALAND BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS:
| ● | Revenue<br> for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased by 1% to $3.4 million, compared to the<br> three months ended June 30, 2020. This growth was driven primarily by an increase in technology<br> service revenue of $0.1 million; revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased<br> by 11% to $6.8 million, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020; |

| --- | --- |

|---|---|
| ● | Raised<br> net proceeds of approximately $3.5 million in connection with our underwritten public offering<br> of 1,333,310 shares of common stock (which includes the full exercise of the underwriter’s<br> over-allotment option) at a price to the public of $3.00 per share. |
| --- | --- |
Jason Katz, Chairman and CEO of Paltalk, commented, “The uplisting of our common stock to Nasdaq has been an important goal for us and we’re excited to have achieved this significant milestone in Paltalk’s evolution. Along with increasing our visibility in the marketplace, the uplisting has the potential to improve the liquidity of our stock, further broaden our institutional stockholder base and ultimately enhance long-term stockholder value. I would like to thank our investors, employees, and partners for their contribution towards the completion of the uplisting.”
“Our second quarter results were solid compared to the prior year period, during which the COVID-19 pandemic likely contributed to an increase in revenue and overall engagement as a result of the global shutdown. We sustained a revenue increase in the current second quarter and, coupled with continued tight expense control and the sale of some Props tokens, net income increased approximately 50% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. We have a strong balance sheet with good liquidity, no long-term debt and cash and cash equivalents of $6.5 million, an increase of approximately $1.0 million in the six months since year-end. With our successful capital raise, we now have a cash position of over $10.0 million which will be used for continued reinvestment in our business through further investment in marketing, development in applications and potential acquisitions. Paltalk has built good momentum over the last several quarters and we believe that we are well positioned for continued growth.”

Non-GAAPFinancial Measures and Key Metrics
The Company has provided in this release certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, and other key metrics, including subscription bookings, to supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income adjusted to exclude interest expense (income), net, other expense (income), net, gain on the extinguishment of term debt, provision for income taxes, realized gain (loss) from sale of digital tokens, gain on office lease termination, impairment loss on digital tokens, depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense. The Company calculates subscription bookings as subscription revenue recognized during the period plus the change in deferred subscription revenue recognized during the period.
Management uses these financial metrics internally in analyzing the Company’s financial results to assess operational performance and to determine the Company’s future capital requirements. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these financial metrics in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The Company believes these financial metrics are useful to investors and others to understand and evaluate the Company’s operating results and it allows for a more meaningful comparison between the Company’s performance and that of competitors. Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this performance measure in isolation from or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| ● | Adjusted<br> EBITDA does not reflect cash capital expenditures for assets underlying depreciation and<br> amortization expense that may need to be replaced or for new capital expenditures; |
|---|---|
| ● | Adjusted<br> EBITDA does not reflect our working capital requirements; |
| ● | Adjusted<br> EBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; |
| ● | Adjusted<br> EBITDA does not reflect the realized gain (loss) from sale of digital tokens; |
| ● | Adjusted<br> EBITDA does not reflect the impairment loss on digital tokens; |
| ● | Adjusted<br> EBITDA does not reflect the gain on the extinguishment of term debt, gain on office lease<br> termination and the provision for income taxes; and |
| ● | other<br> companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently,<br> which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. |
Because of these limitations, you should consider these financial metrics along with other financial performance measures, including total revenues, subscription revenue, deferred revenue, net income (loss), cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, net cash used in operating activities and our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
