      ZIM REPORTS 60 PERCENT INCREASE IN REVENUE FOR ITS 2004 FISCAL PERIOD

OTTAWA, CANADA - JUNE 14, 2004 - ZIM (OTCBB: ZIMCF - all figures in US dollars),
a leading mobile consumer and enterprise application developer for the global
two-way SMS (Short Message Service) channel, today announced its results for the
ten months ended March 31, 2004. In January 2004, ZIM changed its fiscal year
from May 31 to March 31 and, as a result, ZIM is reporting on the ten-month
transitional period ended March 31, 2004.

Revenue for the ten months ended March 31, 2004 was $2,107,099, an increase of
60 percent from $1,316,500 for the same period last year. Approximately 76
percent of this growth is attributable to ZIM's February 10, 2004 acquisition of
U.K.-based SMS firm EPL Communications Limited. SMS revenue for the ten-month
period was $750,325, as compared to $64,122 for the same period last fiscal
year.

Net loss for the ten months ended March 31, 2004 was $1,672,597 or $0.04 per
share, compared to $1,301,878 or $0.04 per share for the ten months ended March
31, 2003. Net loss increased primarily as a result of ZIM becoming a reporting
issuer during the fiscal period and one-time costs associated with the
acquisition of EPL Communications.

"I am very pleased that ZIM delivered a strong year," said Dr. Michael Cowpland,
President and CEO of ZIM. "We are beginning to see the success of our growth
strategy."

RECENT HIGHLIGHTS AND UPDATES

o    ZIM has successfully integrated and leveraged the operations of EPL
     Communications.

o    Two carriers, Telcel (Mexico) and StarHub (Singapore), with a combined
     subscriber base of approximately 26 million, have begun marketing ZIM
     products.

o    Five wireless carriers, in the United States, Australia, Malaysia and Hong
     Kong, and with a combined subscriber base of almost 55 million, are
     trialing ZIM products.

In addition, ZIM's balance sheet also strengthened over last year. In the ten
months ended March 31, 2004, ZIM retired approximately $3.9 million in debt, by
converting the debt into equity at the then current market price of ZIM's common
shares. ZIM also increased its cash to $870,520, largely due to a private
placement offering concluded in January 2004.

All figures presented are calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States.
