Urbanimmersive Inc. ("Urbanimmersive", the "Company", or "UI") (TSX VENTURE: UI) (OTCQB: UBMRF) today announces a workforce reduction and a review of its strategic alternatives available.

In the last fiscal year, the Company experienced a decline in revenues across all its divisions and regions due to the decreased number of new properties for sale entering the real estate market. So far in this fiscal year, contrary to historical seasonal trends where the Company experienced significant revenue growth at the beginning of the high season, the Company’s revenues for February and March 2023 have been relatively flat in comparison to the previous months which has negatively impacted its liquidities. As a result, as of March 31, 2023, the Company has a cash position of $376k (and liquidities of $576k while including unused lines of credit) with accounts payable of approximately $1.1M. Then, the Company will likely need to obtain additional financing in the short term to fund its ongoing operations in the ordinary course of business.

In response to these challenging market conditions, Urbanimmersive is exploring various alternatives to enhance even more its efficiency and reduce its operating costs and is also reviewing other alternatives to generate cash in the short term, such as disposal of non-core assets. Additionally, the Company is implementing a workforce reduction to streamline operations and maintain the stability of critical systems during the current real estate market slowdown. While this decisive action aims to position Urbanimmersive to be cashflow positive until the real estate market recovers, those operational changes could affect its ability to maintain market share and revenues in the future.

In the interim, Urbanimmersive contemplates to complete an additional financing of a minimum of $1.0M through a private placement of convertible debenture units with terms and conditions to be finalized. Accredited investors interested by this investment opportunity can contact the Company's CFO for more information. Net proceed from this financing will be used to bolster the Company's working capital during the market recovery period and secures the Company's ability to rebound once the real estate market recovers. Key management executives and employees have also agreed to reduce their salary with a portion of their compensation being paid in shares, in order to preserve the Company's liquidities.

Other than what has been described in this press release, the Company has not made any decisions regarding its strategic alternatives at this time, and there is no guarantee that the review of its strategic alternatives will result in any specific favorable outcome. Urbanimmersive cautions that securing additional financing may not be possible, and revenue growth and expense reduction strategies may not be successful. The Company does not plan to provide further updates on this review process unless required by applicable securities laws.
