Revenue increased 68% and Adjusted EBITDA increased 77% year-over-year for Q2 2026; Continued U.S. expansion, fleet growth, and strong customer demand drove another record quarter

Q2 2026 AT A GLANCE

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - August 12, 2026) - Zedcor Inc. (TSXV: ZDC) ("Zedcor" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2026, highlighted by record quarterly revenue, record quarterly Adjusted EBITDA, continued expansion of its MobileyeZ™ security tower fleet, strong customer demand, and ongoing execution of its U.S. growth strategy.

In Q2 2026, Zedcor generated revenue of $22.7 million, up 68% year-over-year ("YoY") and 17% quarter-over-quarter ("QoQ") due to a higher tower count, consistently strong utilization rates, and increasing tower production capacity. Adjusted EBITDA was $8.8 million, up 77% YoY and 14% QoQ. Both quarterly revenue and Adjusted EBITDA represent record quarterly results for the Company.

Adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 39% from 36% in the prior-year period due to higher revenues, operating cost controls, and economies of scale, especially related to U.S. G&A costs. Growth investments continued to increase G&A, depreciation, stock-based compensation, and finance costs.

The strong performance reflects continued execution of the Company's growth strategy. During the quarter, Zedcor manufactured and deployed more than 600 MobileyeZ™ security towers, surpassed 1,000 customers, and continued expanding its U.S. operations while maintaining utilization rates above 90% across both its Canadian and U.S. fleets. The Company continues to see increasing demand in both Canada and the U.S.

The U.S. generated $12.2 million of revenue in Q2 2026, up 180% YoY, accounting for approximately 54% of second quarter revenue, with ongoing strength driven by expanding operations as Zedcor's fully integrated hardware, monitoring, and service offering continues to gain traction with customers. Notably, Zedcor's U.S. operations generated more revenue in the first half of 2026 ($21.9 million) than in the full fiscal year 2025 ($21.2 million). The Company continued to build out its presence in Texas and other key markets across the southern U.S.

Todd Ziniuk, President and CEO of Zedcor, commented:

"We continued to deliver healthy growth and another quarter of record revenue and record Adjusted EBITDA. We also reached several important milestones during the quarter, surpassing 1,000 customers, expanding our U.S. fleet to more than 2,200 MobileyeZ™ towers, and maintaining utilization above 90% across both Canada and the U.S. These achievements continue to validate the strength of our integrated platform and the discipline of our team as we execute our growth strategy.

The investments we have made in our technology, manufacturing capabilities, monitoring operations and sales platform continue to position the Company for long-term success. Adjusted EBITDA grew 77% on revenue growth of 68%, allowing us to maintain a 39% Adjusted EBITDA margin while continuing to invest aggressively in expanding the business.

Demand remains strong across North America as customers increasingly recognize the value of Live, Verified Video Monitoring™. We continue to broaden our customer base across multiple industries while expanding relationships with existing customers, providing us with confidence in the long-term opportunity ahead. On June 29, 2026, the Company announced several new contracts with Enterprise customers that provide tangible growth opportunities from long-term projects and will look to build on those relationships over time as we demonstrate strong execution and efficiencies for the customers.

As we continue scaling our operations, our focus for the balance of 2026 remains unchanged:

• deploy towers in markets with latent demand;
• continue taking cost out of the monitoring stack; and
• convert the enterprise pipeline we are building in the U.S."

FINANCIAL & OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026

Zedcor recorded $22,700 of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026. This compares to $13,536 of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The revenue growth of 68% YoY was due to:

• execution of our strategic initiatives for the U.S. expansion;
• diversification of our customer base and attracting new customers across the U.S. and Canada; and
• meeting strong customer demand through the production and deployment of MobileyeZ™ towers.

Quarter-over-quarter, the Company's total revenue was up $3,296, or 17%, as a result of a larger fleet of security towers, continued revenue growth in the U.S. through customer acquisition, and growing revenues from existing customers, offset slightly by lower revenues in Canada.

Adjusted EBITDA was $8,755 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $4,933 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing an increase of $3,822, or 77% YoY. Adjusted EBITDA increased YoY due to higher revenues and operating cost controls, offset by the increase in administrative and sales staff costs due to continued U.S. growth investments. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was 39% as compared to 36% for the three months ended June 30, 2025, highlighting Zedcor's ability to scale.

The Company's security and surveillance services continued to deliver strong revenue and EBITDA growth during the three months ended June 30, 2026, supported by sustained customer demand, continued expansion of its MobileyeZ™ security tower fleet, and increased adoption across both new and existing customers. Utilization rates remained steady throughout Q2 2026 across both the Company's U.S. and Canadian fleets, while continued investment in manufacturing, monitoring operations, and technology positioned the Company to support future growth.

Financial and operational highlights for the three months ended June 30, 2026, include:

1. Net loss of ($2,292) Versus Net income of $460 in the Prior-Year Period
   The decrease reflects continued investment in scaling the business in the U.S., resulting in higher G&A costs, depreciation, stock-based compensation, and financing expenses.

2. Continued Expansion of U.S. Operations and Customer Base

FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION

Zedcor Inc. uses certain measures in this press release which do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). These measures which are derived from information reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other reporting issuers. These measures have been described and presented in this press release in order to provide shareholders and potential investors with additional information regarding the Company.

Investors are cautioned that EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per share, adjusted EBIT and adjusted free cash flow are not acceptable alternatives to net income or net income per share, a measurement of liquidity, or comparable measures as determined in accordance with IFRS.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA refers to net income before finance costs, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA before gains or losses on foreign exchange, losses on sale of equipment and right-of-use-assets, stock based compensation and unrealized investment loss. These measures do not have a standardized definition prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar captioned terms presented by other issuers.

Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful measures of performance as they eliminate non-recurring items and the impact of finance and tax structure variables that exist between entities. "Adjusted EBITDA per share - basic" refers to Adjusted EBITDA divided by the weighted average basic number of shares outstanding during the relevant periods.

A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided below:

Adjusted EBIT

Adjusted EBIT refers to earnings before interest and finance charges and taxes.

A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBIT is provided below:

Adjusted Free Cash Flow

Adjusted free cash flow is defined by management as net income plus non-cash expenses, unrealized investment loss, plus or minus the net change in non-cash working capital and one time income and expenses, less maintenance capital. Maintenance capital is also a non-IFRS term. Management defines maintenance capital as the amount of capital expenditure required to keep its operating assets functioning at the same level of efficiency. Management believes that adjusted free cash flow reflects the cash generated from the ongoing operation of the business. Adjusted free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure generally used as an indicator of funds available for re-investment and debt payment. There is no standardized method of determining free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow or maintenance capital prescribed under IFRS and therefore the Company's method of calculating these amounts is unlikely to be comparable to similar terms presented by other issuers.

Adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations is calculated as follows:
