('ESE' or the 'Company') (TSXV:ESE)(OTCQX:ENTEF), a gaming and esports company that provides a range of services to leading video game developers and publishers, is pleased to announce that it has filed its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the 'Financial Statements') and related management's discussion and analysis (the 'MD&A') for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2022 ('Q3 2022') the highlights of which are presented in this news release.

Q3 2022 Financial Highlights:
'We are excited to share our record Q3 2022 financial performance with shareholders. This was our eighth quarter in a row of record growth. Traditionally, summer is one of the slowest periods of the year for gaming. ESE was still able to achieve another record quarter and continue its operational momentum. One important note is that our net loss for the quarter was mainly attributed to acquisition costs, which are reflected by the share-based payments line item in the income statement. When stepping back to analyze performance, we are pleased to show positive adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended July 31, 2022. Our fiscal Q3 execution has positioned us for continued success into fiscal Q4. As we continue to unlock synergies and scale our technology, we are in a position to go after large-scale customer contracts. We are excited to continue updating current and future shareholders with new developments at ESE as we finish strong in fiscal Q4.' stated Konrad Wasiela, CEO of ESE.
Q3 2022 Operational Highlights:
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA for the periods referenced therein:

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This news release contains certain statements that may constitute forward-looking information under applicable securities laws. All statements, other than those of historical fact, which address activities, events, outcomes, results, developments, performance or achievements that ESE anticipates or expects may or will occur in the future (in whole or in part) should be considered forward-looking information. Such information may involve, but is not limited to, statements with respect to: the Company's fiscal Q3 execution positioning it for continued success into fiscal Q4; the Company continuing to unlock synergies and scale its technology; the Company being in a position to go after large-scale customer contracts; the Company updating current and future shareholders with new developments; the Company finishing strong in fiscal Q4; expectations respecting the effect of trading on the OTCQX; and the Company producing the Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six® Siege league in Europe and the description of same. Often, but not always, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as 'plans', 'expects', 'is expected', 'budget', 'scheduled', 'estimates', 'forecasts', 'intends', 'anticipates', or 'believes' or variations (including negative variations) of such words and phrases, or statements formed in the future tense or indicating that certain actions, events or results 'may', 'could', 'would', 'might' or 'will' (or other variations of the forgoing) be taken, occur, be achieved, or come to pass. Forward-looking information is based on currently available competitive, financial and economic data and operating plans, strategies or beliefs as of the date of this news release, but involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of ESE to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information. Such factors may be based on information currently available to ESE, including information obtained from third-party industry analysts and other third-party sources, and are based on management's current expectations or beliefs regarding future growth, results of operations, future capital (including the amount, nature and sources of funding thereof) and expenditures. Any and all forward-looking information contained in this press release is expressly qualified by this cautionary statement. Trading in the securities of ESE should be considered highly speculative.
This press release contains future-oriented financial information and financial outlook information (collectively, 'FOFI') about ESE's prospective results of operations and components thereof, all of which are subject to the same assumptions, risk factors, limitations, and qualifications as set forth in the above paragraph. FOFI contained in this document was approved by management as of the date of this document and was provided for the purpose of providing further information about ESE's future business operations. ESE disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any FOFI contained in this document, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless required pursuant to applicable law. Readers are cautioned that the FOFI contained in this document should not be used for purposes other than for which it is disclosed herein.
NON-IFRS MEASURES
This press release includes references to adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure and is defined by the Company as net income or loss before income taxes, depreciation, commissions, finder's fees and stamp duty for acquisitions, share-based payments, interest, impairment of assets, accretion, and foreign exchange gain or loss. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of financial performance because it provides an indication of the Company's ability to capitalize on growth opportunities in a cost-effective manner, finance its ongoing operations and service its financial obligations.
This non-IFRS financial measure is not an earnings or cash flow measure recognized by IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Our method of calculating such a financial measure may differ from the methods used by other issuers and, accordingly, our definition of this non-IFRS financial measure may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that non-IFRS financial measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of our performance or to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity and cash flows.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
