Financial Review

All amounts in this news release are in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted.

For the second quarter of 2018, Intermap reported revenue of $4.5 million and operating income of $309 thousand, compared to revenue of $4.5 million and operating loss of $198 thousand for the second quarter of 2017, a $500 thousand improvement in operating performance.

Software and solutions revenue, which includes the Company's commercial InsitePro insurance software, increased 114% to $650 thousand for the quarter, compared to the same period last year.

Second quarter and year-to-date adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP and non-IFRS financial measure, was positive $0.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively, compared to $0.3 million and a loss of $0.5 million, respectively, for the same periods last year, representing $0.6 million and $1.8 million improvements, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and excludes non-recurring and non-cash payments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized performance measure under IFRS. The most directly comparable measure to adjusted EBITDA calculated in accordance with IFRS is net loss. See Non-IFRS Measures below for a reconciliation of the Company's net loss to adjusted EBITDA for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 as compared to 2017.

The Company finished the second quarter with $5.7 million of cash, accounts receivable and unbilled revenue, compared to $4.9 million at Q2 2017, and $6.9 million at December 31, 2017. Working capital improved to $0.8 million at the end of the second quarter, compared to a deficit of $0.3 million at year-end. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities improved 33%, down to $2.7 million from $4.0 million at year-end.

"The Company continues to strengthen its balance sheet organically and these results reflect stronger operating performance, a more sustainable revenue mix, greater profitability, and better return on capital employed", commented Patrick Blott, Chairman & CEO of Intermap. "Sales of our InsitePro insurance software have more than doubled, while total commercial business has grown 41% year-over-year, now comprising 40% of total revenue for the first half of 2018".

The Company's consolidated financial statements and management's discussion and analysis will be filed on SEDAR at: www.sedar.com. Important factors, including those discussed in the Company's regulatory filings (www.sedar.com) could cause actual results to differ from the Company's expectations and those differences may be material.

Non-IFRS Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized performance measure under IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The term EBITDA consists of net income (loss) and excludes interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is included as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that such measurement provides a better assessment of the Company's operations on a continuing basis by eliminating certain non-cash charges and charges that are nonrecurring. The most directly comparable measure to adjusted EBITDA calculated in accordance with IFRS is net loss.
