Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Six Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
(Unaudited)
| 1. | Basis of Presentation: |
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Kidoz Inc. (“the Company”) in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, except as otherwise noted below. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed April 24, 2025 for the year ended December 31, 2024, included in the Company’s Annual Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis filed with the TSX Venture Exchange on SEDAR and the Annual Report on Form 20-F, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.
Continuing operations
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations. The Company expects to continue to generate sufficient cash flows to fund continued operations for the next 12 months, or, in the absence of adequate cash flows from operations, obtaining additional financing.
Management continues to review operations in order to identify additional strategies designed to generate cash flow, improve the Company’s financial position, and enable the timely discharge of the Company’s obligations.

| 2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued): |
| (a) | Basis of presentation: (Continued) |
During the year ended December 31, 2024, Rooplay Media Kenya Limited was discontinued.
In addition, there are the following dormant subsidiaries; Bingo.com (Antigua) Inc., Bingo.com (Wyoming) Inc., and Bingo Acquisition Corp.
All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
| (b) | Use of estimates: |
The preparation of unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and recognized revenues and expenses for the reporting periods.
Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the collectability of accounts receivable, the valuation of stock-based compensation, the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, the useful lives of intangible assets, the inputs used in assessing goodwill impairment, and the derivative liability – warrants valuation. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.
| (c) | Revenue recognition: |
In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services.
We derive substantially all of our revenue from the sale of Ad tech advertising revenue. The content revenue is less than 10% of the total revenue.
To achieve this core principle, the Company applied the following five steps:
1) Identify the contract with a customer
A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred, whose impression count will form the basis of the revenue and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.

| 2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued): |
| (c) | Revenue recognition: (Continued) |
2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services, the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.
3) Determine the transaction price
The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. None of the Company’s contracts contain financing or variable consideration components.
4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract
If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis. The Company determines standalone selling price based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price taking into account available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.
5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The Company satisfies performance obligations at a point in time as discussed in further detail under “Disaggregation of Revenue” below. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised service to a customer.
Disaggregation of Revenue
All of the Company’s performance obligations, and associated revenue, are generally transferred to customers at a point in time. The Company has the following revenue streams:
1) Ad tech advertising revenue - The pricing and terms for all our in-game advertising arrangements are mostly governed by insertion order which generally stipulates the payment terms, the duration (usually short term in nature), the number of advertising units delivered (e.g. impressions, completed views, or cost per install) and the contractually agreed upon price per advertising unit.

| 2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued): |
| (c) | Revenue recognition: (Continued) |
The Company has concluded that the delivery of the Ad tech advertising is delivered at a point in time and, as such, has concluded these deliveries are a single performance obligation. The Company invoices fees which are generally variable based on the arrangement, which would typically include the number of impressions delivered at a specified price per application. For impressions delivered, revenue is recognized in the month in which the Company delivers the application to the end consumer or the month when the campaign ends.
2) Programmatic revenue - The Company generally offers these services under a programmatic bid on a Cost-per-Impression (CPM) basis. Our customers upload their advertisements into a demand side platform which then connects to our Publisher Software Development Kit (“SDK”) through an exchange platform and on a bid system agree on the CPM rate and the impressions to be served.
The Company has concluded that the delivery of the Programmatic advertising is delivered at the earlier of month end or at a point in time and, as such, has concluded these deliveries are a single performance obligation. The Company is deemed to be the principal in the transaction and therefore recognizes the revenue on a gross basis and commissions are recognized as cost of sales. The Company invoices fees which are generally variable based on the arrangement, which would typically include the number of impressions delivered at a specified price per application. For impressions delivered, revenue is recognized in the month in which the Company delivers the application to the end consumer or the month when the campaign ends.
3) Content revenue – The Company recognizes content revenue on the following forms of revenue:
a) Carriers and Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEMs”) - The Company generally offers these services under a customer contract per tablet device license fee model with OEMs. Monthly or quarterly license fees are based on the OEM agreement with the number of devices the Kidoz Kid Mode is installed upon.
b) Rooplay - The Company generates revenue through subscriptions or premium sales of Rooplay, (www.rooplay.com) the cloud-based EduGame system for kids to learn and play within its games on smartphones and tablet devices, such as Apple’s iPhone and iPad, and mobile devices utilizing Google’s Android operating system. The revenue is recognized net of platform fees.
c) Rooplay licensing - The Company licenses its branded educational games under a monthly cost per game agreement license fee model. Monthly license fees are based on the number of games licensed.

| 2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued): |
| (c) | Revenue recognition: (Continued) |
The Company has identified the following performance obligations in these contracts:
i. Ongoing game related services such as hosting of game play, storage of customer content, when and if available content updates, maintaining the virtual currency management engine, tracking gameplay statistics, matchmaking as it relates to multiple player gameplay, etc.
ii. Obligation to the paying player to continue displaying and providing access to the virtual items within the game.
Neither of these obligations are considered distinct since the actual mobile game and the related ongoing services are both required to purchase and benefit from the related virtual items. As such, the Company’s performance obligations represent a single combined performance obligation which is to make the game and the ongoing game related services available to the players. The revenue is recognized net of platform fees.
| (d) | Software Technology Development Costs: |
The Company expenses all software development costs as incurred for the period ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. As at June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, all capitalized software development costs have been fully amortized and the Company has no capitalized software development costs.

| (e) | Impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of: |
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.
| (f) | Intangible assets: |
The Company identified the following intangible assets in the acquisition of Kidoz Ltd. Finite life intangible assets are recorded at historical cost less accumulated amortization based on their estimated useful life and any impairment is determined in accordance with ASC 360. The Company does not have any indefinite life intangible assets. Amortization is provided for annually on the straight-line method over the following periods:

| 2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued): |
| (f) | Intangible assets: (Continued) |
The Company reviews intangible assets subject to amortization quarterly to determine if any adverse conditions exist or a change in circumstances has occurred that would indicate impairment or a change in the remaining useful life. If an impairment indicator exists, we test the intangible asset for recoverability. For purposes of the recoverability test, amortizable intangible assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows if the intangible asset does not generate cash flows independent of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group, the Company will write the carrying value down to the fair value in the period identified.
| (g) | Goodwill: |
The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Others. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable assets acquired, less liabilities assumed, in a business combination. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment. Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
The goodwill impairment test is used to identify both the existence of impairment and the amount of impairment loss and compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and is based on discounted future cash flows, based on market multiples applied to free cash flow. The determination of the fair value of our reporting units requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions including the selection of control premiums, discount rates, terminal growth rates, forecasts of revenue and expense growth rates, income tax rates, changes in working capital, depreciation, amortization and capital expenditures. Changes in assumptions concerning future financial results, exogenous market conditions, or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value of the reporting unit or the amount of the goodwill impairment charge. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

On December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topics 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

| (h) | New accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting policies: |
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The new standard requires entities to disclose additional information about certain expenses, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, as well as selling expenses included in commonly presented expense captions on the income statement. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Companies have the option to apply this guidance either on a retrospective or prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company has evaluated all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these consolidated financial statements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
| (i) | Financial instruments and fair value measurements: |
(i) Fair values:
Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on measurement date. The Company classifies assets and liabilities recorded at fair value under the fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. The fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:
(i) Fair values: (Continued)
Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;
Level 2—Observable inputs, other than quoted market prices, that are either directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities; and
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

| 2. | Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued): |
| (i) | Financial instruments and fair value measurements: (Continued) |
When available, we use quoted market prices to determine fair value, and we classify such measurements within Level 1. In some cases where market prices are not available, we make use of observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon valuations in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable, including internally developed models that use, where possible, current market-based parameters such as interest rates, yield curves and currency rates. These measurements are classified within Level 3.
Fair value measurements are classified according to the lowest level input or value-driver that is significant to the valuation. A measurement may therefore be classified within Level 3 even though there may be significant inputs that are readily observable.
Fair value measurement includes the consideration of nonperformance risk. Nonperformance risk refers to the risk that an obligation (either by a counterparty) will not be fulfilled. For financial assets traded in an active market (Level 1 and certain Level 2), the nonperformance risk is included in the market price. For certain other financial assets and liabilities (certain Level 2 and Level 3), our fair value calculations have been adjusted accordingly.
The fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and accounts payable, and accrued liabilities - related party approximate their financial statement carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments and are therefore carried at their historical cost basis.
Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset. Stock-based compensation and derivative liability – warrants were measured using Level 2 inputs. Goodwill impairment was measured using Level 3 inputs.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
OVERVIEW
Kidoz Inc. (TSXV:KDOZ) is a leading Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and General Data Protection Regulation for children (“GDPR-K”) compliant mobile advertising network, dedicated to providing safe, contextual advertising experiences for kids, teens, and families. Google certified and Apple approved, Kidoz has become the trusted partner of the world’s largest brands, including Mattel, Lego, and Disney, helping them engage young audiences across thousands of popular mobile apps in a secure and privacy-forward manner.
At the heart of our solution is the Kidoz Safe Ad Network and Software Development Kit (“SDK”), integrated into thousands of apps worldwide. Unlike traditional digital advertising platforms, Kidoz never collects location data or Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”). Instead, we leverage advanced contextual targeting to deliver relevant, high-performance campaigns without compromising user privacy. This approach has positioned Kidoz as the market leader in the growing segment of contextual mobile advertising.
In Q2 2025 we continued to expand our global publisher base, and increased advertiser budgets allocated to our platform. Our ongoing investments in proprietary technology, including supply path optimization, Kite IQ, and the Kidoz Privacy Shield, have further enhanced our ability to deliver safe, efficient, and effective campaigns for our brand partners. This leadership has strengthened our network’s reputation as the go-to destination for compliant mobile advertising solutions.
Kidoz is also expanding beyond its core kids’ audience. Prado, our wholly owned division, enables brands to reach the broader family demographic, including teens and parents. Launched in 2023, Prado’s high-performance supply-side platform (“SSP”), demand-side platform (“DSP”), and Ad Exchange have gained traction, allowing Kidoz to offer end-to-end media solutions across all age groups. Our proprietary systems ensure a strict separation between Prado and the Kidoz kids network, maintaining the highest levels of child safety while unlocking new revenue streams from the wider $400+ billion mobile advertising market.
The global shift of media budgets from linear TV to mobile platforms continues to accelerate, and Kidoz is well-positioned to benefit. Regulatory trends favor privacy-compliant platforms like ours, and with governments in key regions tightening data privacy laws, we expect continued momentum. Our compliance-first approach and contextual model are aligned with these evolving standards, providing a significant competitive advantage.
Kidoz remains focused on scaling its programmatic capabilities, growing our Cost Per Install (“CPI”) performance business, and deepening relationships with premium app publishers. We are exploring strategic opportunities to expand our footprint, whether through broader applications of our technology or synergistic M&A. We continue to invest in our staff and grow head count where necessary to support this growth, and we anticipate further expansion as demand for safe, high-performance mobile advertising continues to rise.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, Kidoz made a strategic increase in R&D spending to accelerate the enhancement of our systems and fully integrate advanced AI-driven capabilities. These investments are designed to strengthen our competitive advantage, improve operational efficiency, and expand the scope of our platform offerings. Kidoz made continuous investments in its proprietary systems, further optimizing supply paths and enhancing performance through advanced integrations with IAB specifications for real-time bidding, header bidding, and server-to-server direct connections. These improvements not only support the kids’ marketplace but also broaden our reach across the entire digital advertising landscape.
Our managed programmatic solution, combined with direct connections to premium apps and programmatic demand sources, continues to be a key differentiator. Agency partners are increasingly utilizing our solutions to access high-quality mobile inventory at scale, benefiting from our enhanced efficiency, superior performance, and unwavering commitment to brand safety.
During 2025, Prado (www.prado.co), our division for audiences Over 13 years of age, we have had increasing demand as a high-performance mobile SSP, DSP, and Ad Exchange. Prado’s programmatic capabilities now power large-scale campaigns across thousands of apps, simplifying digital advertising for agencies and brands targeting teens, families, and general audiences. Kidoz engineers have ensured complete separation between Prado and our kid-safe network, preserving the integrity of our child protection systems while enabling Kidoz to enter the broader, significantly larger digital ad market. Prado’s growth, alongside Kidoz’s internal safeguards, guarantees that no inappropriate content ever reaches young audiences.
Marketing & Distribution Strategy
During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, Kidoz strengthened its position as the trusted partner for leading global app publishers seeking compliant and high-performance monetization solutions, building a strong pipeline for the coming quarters. Our SDK has become an essential component for many of the world’s largest and most respected developers, who have integrated our technology into their platforms to ensure safe and effective advertising experiences for their users.
A key part of our strategy is an ongoing investment in compliance education and support for our partners. As regulations continue to evolve, Kidoz is proactively working with publishers to help them stay ahead of the curve. By aligning with Kidoz, developers gain not only access to premium demand and higher yields but also the reassurance that they are meeting the highest global privacy and safety standards.
This trusted reputation, combined with our focus on fostering direct relationships with top-tier publishers, has expanded our distribution footprint and further solidified Kidoz’s leadership in the kids and family digital advertising ecosystem.
Sales & Pricing Strategy
Kidoz’s global agency partnership model continues to deliver success. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, Kidoz launched campaigns in 60 countries, reflecting the scalability and appeal of our solutions. Our strategy of recruiting top-tier international sales houses has been instrumental in building a reliable network of partners who recognize the value of Kidoz’s premium inventory. These partnerships have resulted in repeat campaigns and expanded allocations from major brands that increasingly shift larger portions of their media budgets to Kidoz.
As more brands experience our superior performance and efficiency, they deepen their investments with us. Our programmatic capabilities, in both Kidoz and Prado, open new opportunities for brands targeting parents and teens in addition to children, further diversifying our revenue streams and solidifying our leadership position in the digital advertising space.

Growth Strategy
Kidoz’s growth in 2024 and fiscal 2025 to date was driven by our alignment with regulatory, consumer, and technological trends. Our mission remains clear: “to deliver best-in-class advertising solutions that prioritize privacy, comply with Apple, Google, and stringent global regulations, and provide publishers with safe, effective monetization options.” Our proprietary contextual advertising model continues to outperform alternatives, ensuring that user data is protected while delivering high engagement for advertisers.
Although uncertainty over potential tariff changes caused a temporary slowdown in second quarter of fiscal 2025 sales, we demonstrated resilience by quickly stabilizing operations and maintaining focus on execution. This proactive approach enabled the business to recover momentum rapidly, and we now enter the third quarter from a position of strength with confidence in our continued growth.
A key growth driver in 2024 and fiscal 2025 to date was the increased use of Kidoz as a performance platform for app developers seeking to scale installs on a cost-per-install (CPI) basis. As the CPI market, estimated at over US$120B annually, expands, Kidoz plans to capture more share by advancing our software and systems to support this high-growth segment.
Alongside our core media business, the successful expansion of Prado into the teen and family markets has added new revenue streams. Our latest product, Kidoz Connect, has enhanced our ability to scale programmatic campaigns across both Kidoz and Prado networks, providing advertisers with competitive reach and performance.
Looking forward, while our primary focus remains on the continued development of the Kidoz Safe Ad Network, we are exploring strategic opportunities, including new connections to the wider mobile advertising market and potential synergistic acquisitions, to sustain and accelerate our growth trajectory.
Kidoz Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”)
Kidoz’s mobile products includes the Kid Mode Operating System (“OS”) installed on millions of OEM tablets worldwide. The Company earns license fees based on the OEM agreements dependent on the number of devices the Kidoz Kid Mode OS is installed.
Rooplay
The Company owns Rooplay (www.rooplay.com) the cloud-based EduGame system for kids to play multiple games to learn and play. The platform is live on the Google’s Android system and has stand-alone games available on Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android systems.
OPERATIONS
Employees
As of June 30, 2025, we had 50 employees, consultants, and independent contractors throughout the world including twenty-five full-time employees in Canada, Israel and the United Kingdom. Since 2006 it has been, and continues to be, the Company’s objective to control its costs by retaining consultants, as needed, to provide special expertise in developing internal strategic, marketing, accounting, and technical services. None of our employees or consultants are represented by a labor union, and we believe that our relationship with our employees and consultants is good.
We are substantially dependent upon the continued services and performance of J. M. Williams, Chief Executive Officer; Eldad Ben Tora, President of the Prado division & General Manager EMEA and T. M. Williams, Chairman. The loss of the services of these key individuals would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We do not carry any key man life insurance on any individuals.

Competition
Kidoz operates in a highly specialized segment of the advertising technology industry, focusing on safe, COPPA-compliant mobile advertising for children, teens, and families. While other companies, such as SuperAwesome, Google’s AdMob, and Meta, offer products targeting young audiences, Kidoz’s approach and core strengths set it apart.
SuperAwesome provides a range of media and technology solutions for brands looking to engage with kids, but its offerings are broader and less focused on mobile in-app advertising, which remains the core of Kidoz’s expertise. Google’s AdMob is a major player in mobile advertising but lacks the human-curated, child-safety emphasis that defines the Kidoz platform. Meta’s solutions, while vast, are not tailored for the specific privacy and safety needs of young audiences in the mobile gaming space.
The technology barriers to entering the compliant mobile ad network space are significant. Kidoz has developed proprietary systems that meet the highest global privacy and safety standards, making it a trusted partner for brands seeking to engage young audiences in a secure and effective way. This unique positioning allows Kidoz to consistently outperform less specialized competitors.
Through Prado, Kidoz competes in the broader programmatic space, facing large-scale competitors like Google, Meta, and other major DSPs and SSPs. However, many brands prefer a single supplier that can provide a holistic, family-friendly solution. Prado enables Kidoz to deliver that, offering advertisers streamlined access to kids, teens, and parents through one trusted and compliant platform.
HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025
| ● | During the quarter ended June 30. 2025, the Company changed its trading symbol for the Kidoz Inc.’s common shares to the new symbol “KDOZ” (TSXV:KDOZ). This change strengthens the Company’s brand consistency across markets for the Company’s stock, in both Canada and the United States. | |
| ● | During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company commenced trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol “KDOZF”. The Company’s common shares will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) under the symbol “KDOZ”. |
Events Subsequent to June 30, 2025
Subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company engaged the services of Independent Trading Group (“ITG”) pursuant to a market-making services agreement. ITG will provide continuous buy and sell quotes for our shares with the aim of creating a more liquid and stable trading environment. It is anticipated that this will assist investors in trading more efficiently and ultimately benefiting the Company and its shareholders through improved price discovery, trading capacity, and reduced volatility.

Cash has decreased for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to cash as at December 31, 2024, due to expenses incurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2025. As part of Kidoz’s planned compensation program, annual performance bonuses were paid in the second quarter, reflecting the Company’s exceptional results in 2024. These awards, which are determined in advance based on the prior year’s performance, contributed to higher expenses in the quarter but are non-recurring in nature. Total assets and total liabilities have declined due to paying down of our liabilities in the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
Total stockholders’ equity and working capital has decreased due to expenses incurred by the Company for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
Kidoz ended the quarter with a strong cash position of $2.4 million. While cash decreased during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 as planned, reflecting the payment of annual bonuses and other non-recurring expenses, plus the increase in Development expenditures, the Company continues to maintain ample liquidity to support operations and future growth initiatives.

DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS AND OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
Overall Performance for the Three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Revenue
Total revenue, net of platform fees (to Apple, and Google) and withholding taxes, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, decreased to $2,429,882, a decrease of 11% from revenue of $2,738,303 for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and a decrease of 2% from revenue of $2,479,175 for the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
The decrease in total revenue compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of fiscal 2024 is a brief decline in demand midway through the quarter possibly due to the uncertainty in the market as a result of tariffs.
Selling and marketing expenses
Selling and marketing expenses were $598,475 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 87% over expenses of $320,264 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and an increase of 95% over expenses of $306,747 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. This increase compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of fiscal 2024 is due to increased sales and marketing expenses and the non-recurring performance bonuses. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of sales staff salaries, sales commissions, benefits and publishing services.
We expect to incur increased sales and marketing expenses in selling the Ad tech advertising and to grow the Ad tech advertising revenue. There can be no assurances that these expenditures will result in increased traffic or significant additional revenue.
Software technology development
We do not capitalize our development costs. The Company expensed $1,209,973 in content and software development costs during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 42% compared to content and software development costs of $850,885 expensed during the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and an increase of 48% compared to software technology development costs of $817,956 expensed during the second quarter of fiscal 2024. These increases over the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of fiscal 2024, is due to the hiring of additional development staff to increase the development of our base technologies and the non-recurring performance bonuses.
The majority of our software development costs are salaries, wages, and benefits for our employees and consultants. In addition, as we have expanded our global reach, our overall server costs have increased.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of premises costs for our offices, legal and professional fees, and other general corporate and office expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $173,297 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase of 8% from costs of $160,646 for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and an increase of 9% from costs of $158,294 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase in general and administrative expenses compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of 2024 is due professional fees incurred for the changing of our trading symbols to KDOZ and the application fees for the listing of the Company on the OTCQB Venture Exchange.
We expect to continue to incur general and administrative expenses to support the business, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to cover these expenses.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Salaries, wages, consultants, and benefits
Salaries, wages, consultants, and benefits increased to $409,008 for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase compared to salaries, wages, consultants, and benefits of $117,171 in the first quarter of 2025 and an increase compared to salaries, wages, consultants, and benefits of $190,831 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. This increase compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of fiscal 2024 is due to an increase in headcount and the non-recurring performance bonuses.
Depreciation and amortization
Intangible assets are amortized using a straight-line method over three to eight years. These intangible assets include customer lists, and the software development kits (SDK) for our advertising platform. These intangible assets are as result of the acquisition of Kidoz Ltd. The amortization for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, was $42,564, compared to amortization of $42,564 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and compared to amortization of $42,564 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
Equipment is depreciated using the declining balance method over the useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to five years. Depreciation and amortization increased to $3,031, during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, an increase over costs of $2,797 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and an increase over costs $2,873 in the second quarter in fiscal 2024. This increase in depreciation and amortization compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and the second quarter of fiscal 2024 is due to the acquisition of equipment for our new staff.
Stock-based compensation expense
During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred non-cash stock-based compensation expenses of $45,581 from the issuance of stock options granted in prior years, an increase of 4% compared to stock-based compensation expense of $43,868 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and a decrease of 56% compared to stock-based compensation expense of $104,321 in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 is due to issuance of options granted in 2024. The options are issued to consultants and employees as per the Company’s 2015 and 2024 Stock Option Plans and are a significant component of the Companies overall compensation plan.
Net income (loss) and income (loss) per share
The net income after taxation for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, amounted to a net loss ($1,171,463), a loss ($0.01) per share, and a decrease compared to earnings of $60,142 or $0.00 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and an increase compared to net loss of ($385,650) in the second quarter of fiscal 2024. This increase in net loss is due to the increases in headcount, technology enhancements, server costs and the non-recurring performance bonuses.
Net Cash generated from Operations and Adjusted EBITDA
Due to our focus on maintaining a strong balance sheet while striving to continue our rapid growth on an annual basis and to evaluate our performance and make financial and operational decisions accordingly we pay close attention to our net cash generated from operations and our adjusted EBITDA.
Our net cash used by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was ($346,020) compared to using cash of ($742,642) in the prior year. This decrease in cash used during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024 is as a result of improved operational efficiencies.
Adjusted loss before interest; depreciation and amortization; stock awareness program; stock-based compensation and impairment of goodwill (“Adjusted EBITDA”) for the period ended June 30, 2025, amounted to ($1,088,229), compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of $78,437 in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of ($236,815) in the period ended June 30, 2024.

We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to evaluate our performance and make financial and operational decisions that are presented in a manner that adjusts from their equivalent GAAP measures or that supplement the information provided by our GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as EBITDA (net income (loss) plus depreciation expense, amortization expense, interest, stock-based compensation, and impairment of goodwill), further adjusted to exclude certain non-cash expenses and other adjustments. We use Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it more clearly highlights business trends that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures, since Adjusted EBITDA eliminates from our results specific financial items that have less bearing on our core operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is not presented in accordance with, or as an alternative to, GAAP financial measures and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We encourage investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in this Annual Report, including our consolidated financial statements, to aid in their analysis and understanding of our performance and in making comparisons.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company generates cash from operations.
The Company believes it has sufficient cash resources to meet its current growth and development objectives. Although the Company has relied on revenue generated through its business, external funding may be required to continue growing the existing business and scaling operations. There can be no assurance that adequate funding will be available in the future, or under terms that are favorable to the Company.
We had cash of $2,426,807 and working capital of $3,280,285 as at June 30, 2025. This compares to cash of $2,780,517 and working capital of $4,219,588 as at December 31, 2024.

ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGES, CRITICAL ESTIMATES, JUDGMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS
The information provided in this MD&A, including the consolidated financial statements, is the responsibility of management. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. There is a full disclosure and description of the Company’s critical accounting policies, estimates, judgments, assumptions in the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as at June 30, 2025 in notes 1 and 2.
Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the collectability of accounts receivable, the valuation of stock-based compensation, the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the useful lives of intangible assets. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.
The following discussion of critical accounting policies is intended to supplement the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies presented as Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements presented elsewhere in this report. Note 2 summarizes the accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
We consider the following accounting policies to be both those most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and require the most subjective judgment:
- Revenue recognition;
- Software technology development;
- Impairment of long-lived assets;
- Goodwill
| Page 15 |
Kidoz Inc. and subsidiaries
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
These policies were selected because they require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation and presentation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates these judgments and estimates, including whether there are any uncertainties as to compliance with the revenue recognition criteria described below, and recoverability of long-lived assets, as well as the assessment as to whether there are contingent assets and liabilities that should be recognized or disclosed for the consolidated financial statements to fairly present the information required to be set forth therein. We base our estimates on historical experience, as well as other events and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable at the time. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different conditions.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS AND CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
On December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topics 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” to expand the disclosure requirements for income taxes, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The new standard requires entities to disclose additional information about certain expenses, such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, as well as selling expenses included in commonly presented expense captions on the income statement. The FASB further clarified the effective date in January 2025 with the issuance of ASU 2025-01, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Companies have the option to apply this guidance either on a retrospective or prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company has evaluated all of the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standards-setting bodies through the filing date of these unaudited consolidated financial statements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND OTHER INSTRUMENTS
The Company is exposed to various financial risks resulting from both its operations. The Company does not enter into financial instrument agreements including derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. The fair values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate the carrying values, due to their short terms to maturity or attached market rates of interest. The Company is exposed to various risks related to its financial instruments as follows:
| (i) | Market risk | |
| Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates, will affect the Company’s net income and the value of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable limits, while maximizing returns. |
| Page 16 |
Kidoz Inc. and subsidiaries
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
| (ii) | Foreign exchange risk | |
| The Company has exposure to foreign exchange risk which is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the Company’s functional currency. The Company has not entered into foreign exchange purchase contracts to manage its foreign exchange risk, because, in management’s view, the cost of setting up the contracts is in excess of the risks associated with a sudden change in the exchange rates. Management continually monitors the exchange rates and will enter into risk prevention measures when warranted. The Company is also exposed to foreign exchange risk on its cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable balances that are mostly denominated in U.S. dollars and Euros, whereas our employment and consulting costs are mostly denominated in Israeli Shekels, British Pounds, Canadian Dollars, and US Dollars. | ||
| (iii) | Credit Risk | |
| Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is subject to credit risk with respect to cash and accounts receivable. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying value of these assets. Credit risk is managed through a credit approval process and monitoring procedures, and there are no expected credit losses. | ||
| All cash balances are held at a major banking institutions in Israel, United Kingdom and Canada and management believes the risk of loss to be remote. | ||
| (iv) | Liquidity risk | |
| Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and the maturity of liabilities do not match. An unmatched position potentially enhances profitability but can also increase the risk of loss. The Company’s liquidity needs can be met through a variety of sources. The Company generates cash from operations, and in the past by issuances of common shares. The Company manages liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash balances to meet liabilities when due and by continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows. |
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Company’s business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those described elsewhere in this MD&A, as well as general economic and market risks. The following discussion describes material risks and uncertainties that the Company has identified that may affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
Risks Related to the Business
| ● | Regulations - The Company operates in a highly regulated market with a Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (“COPPA”) & General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). There is the risk that the regulations restrict the Company operations. The Company serves compliant contextual mobile advertising network that safely reaches hundreds of million kids, teens, and families every month. | |
| ● | Reliant on Google and Apple - The Company is heavily reliant on Google and Apple, on whose platform the games where we advertise are hosted. The Company has been Google certified and has been approved by Apple. | |
| ● | Expanding Company - the Company is a growing and expanding company. The Company’s revenues may be materially affected by the decisions of its management and/or customers, and due to a variety of other factors, many of which may be beyond the Company’s control. This may lead to expenses exceeding estimates or be incurred in the expectation of sales that do not occur or that occur later than expected. Management expects expenses to increase, especially hiring of additional staff to support its growth and expansion. Fluctuating results could cause unanticipated quarterly losses and cause the Company’s performance to fall below the expectations of investors, which could adversely affect the price of the common shares. The following will cause fluctuating results: |
| ○ | Changes in demand for Kidoz Platform | |
| ○ | Changes in the Company’s customer base, additions and losses of customers | |
| ○ | Changes in advertising budgets of our customers | |
| ○ | Changes in the availability of advertising inventory or in the cost of reaching customers through digital advertising. | |
| ○ | Disruptions or outages on the Kidoz platform. | |
| ○ | New technology or offering by the Kidoz competitors. | |
| ○ | Timing differences between our payments for advertising inventory and our collection of advertising revenue. | |
| ○ | Shifting views and behaviors of consumers concerning use of data. |
Based upon the factors above and others beyond the Company’s control, Kidoz forecasts future revenue, costs and expenses, and continually reviews these forecasts. As a result, its operating results may, from time to time, fall below estimates or the expectations of securities analysts and investors.
| ● | Managing growth - The Company has expanded rapidly over the last few years. The continued rapid growth of the Company may strain management, financial, technical, and other resources. The Company must expand its sales, marketing, technology, and operational staff and expand its controls. If Kidoz continues its rapid growth, it will incur additional expenses, and its growth may continue to place a strain on resources, infrastructure, and ability to maintain the quality of its offering. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to effectively manage and coordinate growth so as to achieve or maximize future profitability. | |
| ● | Reliance on Key Customers - The Company is reliant on a relatively few customers and sales houses. The loss of a significant customer could harm the Company’s business and severely impact the future financial success of the Company. The Company is continually looking for new customers and sales houses around the world to partner with. | |
| ● | Retaining and attracting customers - The Company, to continue to grow, must attract new customers and encourage existing advertisers to purchase additional offerings. Our competitors may introduce lower costs or differentiated products or services that compete with our current offering on price or technology and therefore impacting our sales. The Company has hired additional sales staff and is continually developing its technology. | |
| ● | No long-term customer commitments - The Company does not have any long term commitments by its customers beyond the current insertion order, which can be cancelled prior to the campaign conclusion without any penalty. Therefore, the Company success is dependent on offering the best service and maintaining good customer relations. The Company allocates customer service personnel to manage the customer relationship. |

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
| ● | Reliance on third parties - the Company is reliant on third parties to operate. These third parties include cloud-based servers located around the world, external sales houses, outsourced technology developers, advertising exchanges and other strategic partners. If these third parties fail to perform as agreed could negatively affect our operations. | |
| ● | Personnel - The loss of any member of the Company’s management team, could have a material adverse effect on its business and results of operations. The Company relies on its engineering staff to develop its technology; operations staff to manage and operate the campaigns, its sales teams to attract and retain key customers and its finance department staff to properly manage and maintain the financial records and reporting thereof. The inability to hire, or the increased costs of new personnel, or the cost to maintain existing personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and operating results. There is intense competition for capable personnel in all of these areas, and the Company may not be successful in attracting, training, integrating, motivating, or retaining new personnel, vendors, or subcontractors for these required functions. The growth of the Company is dependent on hiring additional personnel so there is additional costs in training these new personnel. | |
| ● | Children advertising - The Company is dependent on advertising to children so therefore is affected by changes to this business segment. The Company is expanding into advertising to teens and families and to be less reliant on advertising to children. | |
| ● | Market conditions - The economic uncertainty in the market has made and continues to make it difficult for the Company to forecast revenue and operating results and to make decisions regarding operational cost structures and investments. The Company’s business depends on the overall demand for advertising and on the economic health of its customers. Economic downturns or unstable market conditions may cause the Company’s customers to decrease their advertising budgets, which could reduce usage of the Company’s platform and adversely affect its business, operating results, and financial condition. | |
| ● | Inappropriate advertisement - This is the risk that the Company serves an inappropriate advertisement on behalf of its customers. To mitigate this risk all adverts are human reviewed before the campaign commences. | |
| ● | Cybersecurity - Cybersecurity attacks, including breaches, computer malware and computer hacking have become more prevalent recent years across all businesses. Any cybersecurity breach caused by hacking, which involves efforts to gain unauthorized access to information or systems, or to cause intentional malfunctions or loss or corruption of data, software, hardware or other computer equipment, or the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could adversely affect the business, financial condition, results of operations or reputation of the Company. The Company believes that it is taken reasonable steps to protect the security, integrity and confidentiality of the information collected, used, stored and disclosed, but there is no guarantee that in the future inadvertent (e.g., software bugs or other technical malfunctions, employee error or malfeasance, or other factors) or unauthorized data access or use will not occur despite its efforts in the past and in the future. |

Kidoz Inc. and subsidiaries
Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Three Months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
| ● | Technology - The Company’s future success is dependent on its ability to continue to develop and expand its products and technologies and to address the needs of its customers. The Company operates in an industry that is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product and service introductions and enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changes in customer requirements, and evolving industry standards. The introduction of new products and new technologies, the emergence of new industry standards, or improvements to existing technologies could render the Company’s platform obsolete or relatively less competitive. | |
| ● | Outages - In addition, the Company operates 24/7 business so if outages were to occur it is critical for the technology to be restored in a timely manner. Any delay in restoring the systems will have a negative effect on its business, operating results and financial condition. | |
| ● | Cloud based servers - The Company’s products and services involve storage using a third-party cloud-based hosting service. Any damage to, or failure of, the hosting service’s systems generally could result in interruptions in the use of the Company’s platform. Such interruptions may reduce the Company’s revenue, and adversely the Company’s ability to attract new customers. The Company’s business will also be harmed if its customers and potential customers believe its products or services are unreliable. | |
| ● | Incorrect advertising – The Company is developing a teens and family platform under its Prado brand. Therefore, there is the risk that an inappropriate advertisement is served to children, which could result in fines to the Company and have a negative effect on its business, operating results, and financial condition. The Company has put in internal controls that ensure no non children advertisement is served to children. |
Financial and Accounting Risks
| ● | Additional financing - There can be no certainty that the Company’s financial resources and revenue from sales will be sufficient for its future needs. The Company may need to incur significant expenses for growth, operations, research and development, as well as sales and marketing and other unforeseen costs. The ability of the Company to arrange such financing in the future will depend in part upon the prevailing capital market conditions as well as the business performance of the Company. It may be difficult or impossible for the Company to obtain debt financing or equity financing on commercially acceptable terms. In addition, the issuance of common shares for an equity financing may have a negative effect on the existing shareholders of the Company such as dilution or negative sentiments in the market to the equity financing. | |
| ● | Growth – Kidoz anticipates continued growth that could require substantial financial and other resources to, among other things: (a) expand and develop product offerings; (b) improve technological infrastructure, including investing in its technology (c) cover general and administrative expenses, including legal, accounting and other expenses; (d) cover sales and marketing expenses, including a significant expansion of the Company’s direct sales organization. Investment in these, however, may not yield anticipated returns. Consequently, as costs increase, the Company may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to achieve or sustain profitability. | |
| ● | Payment risks – If our customers do not pay, or dispute their invoices, then the business, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected. In addition, if our customers do not pay in a timely manner will our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected. | |
| ● | Internal Controls - A failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting could harm the Company’s financial performance, its ability to raise capital and its continued listing on the TSX Venture Exchange. In addition, the Company is a small company so has limited segregation of duties. The Company is therefore reliant on the critical personnel and an increase in the risk of the failure of internal controls. | |
| ● | Changes to GAAP – The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). There is a risk that changes to US GAAP will negatively affect the Company in terms of results and could become more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on the Company’s systems and resources to comply with this change. |

Industry Risk
| ● | Competition – the advertising business is a highly competitive business. The Company offers niche advertising in a highly regulated business. However, there are few barriers to existing large advertising companies entering the market. Our existing customers could develop their own in-house solutions and therefore no longer advertise with us. | |
| ● | Ad blockers – Consumers may load ad blocking software. This will affect our ability to serve advertisements and will therefore reduce our revenue. | |
| ● | Failure to access advertising inventory – We must maintain a consistent supply of ad inventory. Our success depends on our ability to secure inventory on reasonable terms in multiple locations. The amount, quality, and cost of inventory available to the Company can change at any time. If our relationships with any of our significant suppliers were to cease, or if the material terms of these relationships were to change unfavourably, our business would be negatively impacted. | |
| ● | Fraud – The Company operates as a technology and services provider in a dynamic ecosystem where fraud exists. Typical forms of fraud include robotic traffic, where robots mimic the behaviour of users in order to inflate the number of impressions, clicks, post clicks actions or other metrics associated with the ad. The Company reviews all ads and monitors the impression serving with our suppliers. | |
| ● | Catastrophic events – We maintain cloud-based servers around the world, that deliver advertising campaigns for our advertisers. Any of its existing and future facilities may be harmed or rendered inoperable by attack or security intrusion by a computer hacker, natural or man-made disasters, including earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, wildfires, floods, nuclear disasters, war, acts of terrorism or other criminal activities, infectious disease outbreaks and power outages, any of which may render it difficult or impossible for the Company to operate its business for some period of time. The Company maintains backup and disaster recovery plans to get back up and running as fast as possible. | |
| ● | Economic, Political and Market Conditions – Our business depends on the overall demand for advertising and on the economic health of our current and prospective advertisers. Economic downturns, including a recession, or instability in political or market conditions may cause current or new advertisers to reduce their advertising budgets. These conditions are impacted by events outside of the Company’s control, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, may have a long-term impact on the global economy. Adverse economic conditions and general uncertainty about continued economic recovery are likely to affect the Company’s business prospects. This uncertainty may cause general business conditions to deteriorate or become volatile, which could cause advertisers to delay, decrease or cancel campaigns, and expose the Company to increased credit risk on advertiser orders, which, in turn, could negatively impact its business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, continued geopolitical turmoil in many parts of the world have and may continue to put pressure on global economic conditions, which could lead to reduced spending on advertising. |

Risks Related to the Common Shares and Corporate and Securities Law
| ● | Market for common shares – The shares of the Company are illiquid. The Company has made efforts to improve the exposure of the Company through its stock awareness program and create a more active market for its shares. There are no assurances that our Stock Awareness campaigns will be effective to create a liquid market. | |
| ● | Volatility in the market - Technology stocks have historically experienced high levels of volatility and we cannot predict the prices at which our common shares will trade. Fluctuations in the market price of our common shares could cause an investor to lose all or part of their investment in our common shares. These fluctuations in the market price and volatility of our common shares can be caused by factors outside the control of the Company such the following: |
| ○ | The volatility in the market price and trading volume of technology companies in general especially large companies in the digital advertising industry (e.g. Google and Meta); | |
| ○ | Changes in regulatory developments in Canada and the United States; | |
| ○ | General economic conditions and trends, including global financial markets, global economies and general market conditions, such as interest rates; | |
| ○ | Major catastrophic events (e.g. the war in the Ukraine and Gaza); | |
| ○ | Unexpected market reactions to the Company announcements; | |
| ○ | Trade wars and trade tariffs. |
As a result, share prices of many technology companies have fluctuated in a manner unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. In general, in the past, shareholders have filed securities class action litigation following periods of market volatility. If Kidoz were to become involved in securities litigation, it could subject it to substantial costs, divert resources and the attention of management from our business, and adversely affect our business.
| ● | Public Company implications – The Company is listed on the Toronto Venture Stock Exchange and is therefore subject to its listing requirements. Compliance with these rules and regulations could become more difficult, time-consuming, or costly and increase demand on the Company’s systems and resources. |
