Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company's stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the options is based on US Treasury bill rates in effect at the time of grant.

[d] Earnings Per Share

Net income (loss) per common share (basic) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income (loss) per common share (diluted) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, plus the dilutive effect of outstanding common share equivalents. This method requires that the dilutive effect of outstanding options and warrants issued be calculated using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, all common share equivalents have been exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and that the funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common shares of the Company at the average trading price of common shares during the period, but only if dilutive.

The Company is subject to claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are inherently uncertain, and there can be no guarantee that the outcome of any such matter will be decided favorably to the Company or that the resolution of any such matter will not have a material adverse effect upon the Company's financial statements. The Company does not believe that any of such pending claims and legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements.

On September 5, 2017, the Company's former President and Chief Executive Officer filed a Notice of Civil Claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against the Company, its subsidiaries, independent directors, and current Chief Executive Officer, claiming damages for conspiracy, breach of contract, wrongful dismissal, defamation and aggravated and punitive damages. The Company believes the claims are without merit and is defending itself against the claims. The quantum of loss, if any, is not determinable at this time and management believes it is unlikely that the outcome of this matter will have an adverse impact on its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Destiny Media Technologies Inc.Starting in late 2019, a novel strain of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, began to rapidly spread around the world. At this time, there continues to be significant volatility and uncertainty relating to the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it will impact our business, operations, and financial results.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIMMost countries have at various times instituted quarantines, restrictions on travel, "stay at home" rules, social distancing measures and restrictions on the types of businesses that could continue to operate, as well as guidance in response to the pandemic and the need to contain it. The spread of COVID-19 has adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in a significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce our ability to access capital in the future, which could negatively affect our liquidity.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTSIf the COVID-19 pandemic does not continue to slow and the spread of COVID-19 is not contained, our business operations, including those of our customers, could be interrupted. The duration of any business disruption cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but may materially affect our ability to operate our business and result in additional costs. It is not possible to reliably measure or quantify the impact COVID-19 has had on the financial results of the Company. If the COVID-19 pandemic continues for an extended period, it may materially adversely impact business operations and, consequently, future financial results.

Play MPE® CASTER (global architecture)

Play MPE®'s global distribution architecture was developed in close collaboration with Universal to address the needs of its global approach to release distribution. This architecture provides functionality required for Universal to conduct their unique approach to music distribution and provides numerous significant competitive advantages for Universal. These features improve marketing coordination and revenue generation while reducing overall label costs.

Significant components include:

  • Staff role management: Customers can grant varying capabilities or permissions for different staff positions. For example, one staff member can create a release while another can approve the release of this content. In a larger organization, this control ensures accurate and professional distributions are conducted, but allows for segregation of duties to maximize efficiency.
  • Label management: With label management, administrative staff can determine which users have access to which labels and which content. Each label has a unique account environment allowing for its own unique setup, list curation, favorites, staff roles, templates etc.
  • Global release sharing (replication): With global release sharing, distribution centers can share a release to a territory. That territory then can reuse the release while localizing it to suit the particular needs of that jurisdiction (editing language, artist information, local concert dates, local contacts etc.). This eliminates duplication of upload and data entry while reducing errors. In the context of global distribution, across multiple territories, multiple labels, and thousands of unique releases, savings of staff time is significant. Metadata completeness and accuracy are also increased. When complete metadata is conveyed, recipient engagement is higher. Higher recipient engagement increases record label revenue. Within the included metadata are ISRC codes which are unique codes used to remit track royalties. When ISRC codes are communicated, royalty remittances are complete and timely. These aspects provide significant competitive advantages to Universal.
  • Release embargos: When marketing and promotion departments create global campaigns for highly anticipated music releases, staff restrict access to this content until the public release time. Here, record labels can permit early access to the relevant content so local offices can edit, localize and schedule releases but controls are added to restrict certain permissions and prevent premature release. Universal enjoys competitive advantages with these capabilities derived through cost savings and improved marketing campaigns. Absent these functions, global release coordination is more costly and less coordinated.
  • Archive integration: With archive integration, Play MPE® automatically captures music, art, and associated metadata vastly reducing errors in release creation and data entry. This further expands the competitive advantages enjoyed in global release sharing.
  • Release management: There are numerous capabilities within release management that are necessary for efficient global release management. Content owners can change DRM and quickly remove content globally if necessary etc.
  • Asset management: Assets include music tracks, album art, metadata etc. Within the assets management portion, several features allow assets to be used, recomposed, combined, recombined etc. Features here allow efficient and quick delivery of new releases.
  • Release scheduling: While release scheduling is available for local distribution, many additional features are designed to facilitate actions that reduce staff time in a global environment.

12


  • Contacts management: Critically important to all promotions is the distribution of content to an interested and engaged audience. As introduced in the local distribution discussion, Caster provides a contacts management system to administer recipient lists. Contacts management offers severalwith numerous features that facilitate efficient updates and maintenance actions that are critically important where users maintain a large recipient database, across multiple users, and multiple recipient lists. Absent these features, list maintenance becomes overly cumbersome, inefficient and leads to inaccuracies. The functionality within the contactsultimately inaccurate.

Collectively, functions in global release management system is critically important to bothprovide numerous competitive advantages that reduce overall costs, and improve marketing collaboration while increasing record label revenue and cash flow. We are unaware of any other service that provides these global distribution hubs at Universal and the Play MPE® operations team to efficiently maintain accurate and active recipient lists.functions.

Within Play MPE®'s contacts CASTER (targeted list management platform, the Company's operations team offers for sale carefully curatedservices)

Recipient lists are bundles of active and actively maintainedengaged recipients with an interest in specific music types. Lists are sold as a fixed price per list (or list bundle). As recipient lists with more than 14,000 music curators around the world. These lists include complete listsare adjusted in 12 countries, and lists under constructionreal time, changes in an additional 38. These selectable lists eliminate the need for our clients to maintain currentgross recipient contact information. These lists offer significant value to all customers, but are necessary for smaller independent labels and artists who donumbers or active recipients does not have the resources to maintain current contacts. Without these curators lists, many sales would not be possible. As active lists in new territories are completed, Play MPE® will grow revenue.


In addition to the contacts management functionality, the Play MPE® product and engineering staff are developing new technical processes to facilitate list development and maintenance. With these technical solutions, it is expected that Play MPE® will expand saleable lists and thereby increasedirectly or immediately impact revenue.

Fundamental to our customers' success in music marketing is reaching music curators capable of, and actively engaged in, remarketing the promoted content to a wider consumer audience. To limit unwanted access to new music and to increase recipient engagement, targeted and limited distribution is a vital component in music promotion. Thus, Play MPE® is a permissions-only access system and only recipients designated or targeted to receive content obtain access to that content. Current and correct identification of engaged recipients is therefore critical to our customers' success. While targeted distribution limits access to new content, this aspect also improves recipient side engagement by eliminating unwanted content.

Play MPE® actively manages curated and targeted distribution lists. List creation and list maintenance involve several proprietary processes that are designed to create complete, active, accurate, and targeted lists to facilitate efficient marketing campaigns. Play MPE® provides more than 300 unique targeted lists comprising of more than 17,000 unique and active recipients over 30 countries. To facilitate targeted music marketing campaigns, these lists are grouped by territory (typically by country), by genre of music, and by recipient type (see recipient player discussion). Relying on proprietary technical innovations and processes, these recipient lists are updated in real time. With an annual churn averaging between 27-34%, these recipient lists would quickly become inaccurate absent Play MPE®'s active curation. Play MPE® regularly monitors activity levels and recipients through proprietary analytics. Play MPE® provides the widest and most accurate distribution channels available in the industry.

For smaller record labels and independent artists, the provision of a list of destinations is a requirement for sale as these customers do not know who to contact. For larger record labels, promotions staff can upload their own contact lists. However, proprietary processes ensure Play MPE® lists are more accurate, complete and engaged. The majority of releases distributed through Play MPE®, include a targeted distribution list, curated by Play MPE®.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIODSMONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 20212022 AND 20202021

Revenue

Total revenue for the three-month period endingthree months ended November 30, 2021 increased2022 decreased by approximately 1% ($1,134,151 in 2021 - $1,123,977 in 2020).10% to $1,020,737 compared to the revenue of $1,134,151 for the three months ended November 30, 2021. Adjusted for impacts of foreign currency translation Play MPE® represents virtually allrevenue declined by 4.1%. While unfavorable foreign exchange is the single largest source of the Company's revenue.  Play MPE®'s yearrevenue decline, adverse economic impacts affecting our independent customers led to datea 13% reduction in revenue from our smaller independent record labels. These declines are expected to be temporary and to reverse as artist touring revenue rebounds following the lockdowns associated with the global pandemic.

On the positive side, with efforts on product and business development, and adjusting for foreign exchange, global revenue from Universal Music Group grew by 1% (or 1.7% after adjusting for favorable foreign exchange)8.7%, and global revenue from Warner Music Group by 10.5%. Play MPE® continuedThe Company has emphasized stronger commercial relationships with the Major Labels to experienceprovide a corner stone to stronger long term revenue growth.

Product investments over the last several years have been focused on providing global distribution functionality in a browser-based platform that provides significant competitive advantages. These advantages are seen most prominently in a global distribution context and broadly consist of a significant reduction of global distribution costs, increased control over content, and various aspects that enhance the effectiveness of our client's marketing efforts which has a direct improvement to our customers' revenue. These investments delayed development efforts to expand services and add items that will assist in growing our customer base and has delayed revenue growth from smaller independent record labels. The Company is now moving resources to expand our addressable market and increase customer acquisition.

The Company's revenues are denominated predominantly in US Dollars, Euros and Australian Dollars. Major Label revenue is predominantly (90%) denominated in Euro and, as a result of the decline in the independent labels invalue of the Euro relative to the United States Europe, and Australia with an averagedollar, global Major Label revenue was adversely impacted in spite of growth of 3% in thiswithin the European segment.

Operating ExpensesGross Margin

OverviewGross margin for the three months ended November 30, 2022 was 87.3% of revenue, which represents a decrease of 2.8% from the three months ended November 30, 2021. The Company's cost of revenue consists of data hosting and processing charges, third party transaction related costs, and engineering, technical and customer support costs. These costs are driven by the size and volume of customer transactions processed, as well as the relative proportion of "full-service" versus "self-service" revenue. Our self-service sales are derived from customers who have been provided with a customer account to access our encoder to independently upload and publish releases. Our full-service revenue is derived from customers who are fully serviced by our internal staff, who prepare and publish releases on their behalf. During the three months ended November 30, 2022, our gross margin decreased over the comparative period predominately due to increase in staffing costs associated with the technical and customer support departments.

Operating Expenses

As our technologies and products are developed and maintained in-house, the majority of our expenditures are on salaries and wages and associated expenses such as office space, supplies and benefits. Our operations are primarily conducted in Canada and therefore, our costs are primarily incurred in Canadian dollars while our revenues are primarily denominated in Euros and US dollars. Thus, operating expenses and the results of operations are impacted, to the extent they are not hedged, by the rise and fall of the relative values of the Canadian dollar to these currencies. The Company maintains a large portion of its financial reserves in Canadian dollars to mitigate the downside risk of adverse exchange rates on its operating expenditures.

Total operatingOperating costs during the three-month periodthree months ended November 30, 2022 decreased by 25.2% to $637,092 (November 30, 2021 increased by 8.6% to $852,029 (2020 - $784,426). Operating Costs in the comparative period, include one-time, non-recuring costs associated with staff restructuring. Adjusting for these one-time costs associated with staff restructuring, overall costs increased by 11.8%$852,029). The increasedecrease in costs iswas primarily the result of expanded business development staffingthe following two main factors:

  • A decrease of approximately 5.2% due to favorable foreign exchange rates as the US dollar strengthened relative to the Canadian dollar where the majority of the Company's costs designed to expand Play MPE®‘s global market share.

We used Adjusted EBITDA, along with other GAAP measures, as a measure of our profitability because Adjusted EBITDA helps us to compare our performance on a consistent basis by removing from our operating results the impact of our capital structure, the effect of operating in different tax jurisdictions, the impact of our asset base, which can differ depending on the book value of assets, the accounting methods used to compute depreciation and amortization, the existence or timing of asset impairments and the effect of non-cash stock-based compensation expense.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors as it is a widely used measure of performance and the adjustments we make to Adjusted EBITDA provide further clarity on our profitability. We remove the effect of non-cash stock-based compensation from our earnings which can vary based on share price, share price volatility and expected life of the equity instruments we grant. In addition, this stock-based compensation expense does not result in cash payments by us.the Company. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as a profitability measure in that it does not include the interest expense on our debts, our provisions for income taxes, the effect of our expenditures foron capital assets, the effect of non-cash stock-based compensation expense and the effect of asset impairments. The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) from operations to Adjusted EBITDA over the eight most recently completed fiscal quarters:
