NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for a full year. In connection with the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of September 30, 2022 through the filing of this report. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has a working capital deficit of $ 2,337,632 . Our current liabilities include deferred revenue of $ 1,088,109 and a $ 218,000 nonrefundable customer deposit. The costs expected to be incurred to realize the deferred revenue in the next 12 months are minimal. The Company has a plan in place for the next 12 months to ensure ongoing expenditures are balanced with the expected growth rate and believes cash on hand and cash generated will be sufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months. However, to implement our business plan may require additional financing. Additional financings may come from future equity or debt offerings that could result in dilution to our stockholders. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if it is available, it will be on terms acceptable to us. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 contained in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated March 30, 2022. Risks and Uncertainties Recent events in the Ukraine and Russia have caused disruptions in the global financial markets. While we do not have any operations or customers in the Ukraine or Russia, we will continue to monitor the situation as a prolonged conflict could impact our business. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a) Nature of operations We are a software developer and distributor of financial market data and related services to a global marketplace. We specialize in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data content via the Internet. We develop and license software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets. b) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the operations of QuoteMedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of QuoteMedia, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. c) Foreign currency translation and transactions The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of all our company's operations. Foreign currency asset and liability amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for equipment and intangible assets, which are remeasured at historical rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the year, except for expenses related to balance sheet amounts remeasured at historical exchange rates. Because the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in income in the period in which they occur. d) Allowances for doubtful accounts We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The Company determines the allowance by reviewing the age of the receivables and assessing the anticipated ability of customers to pay. No collateral is required for any of the receivables and the Company does not usually apply financing charges to outstanding accounts receivable balances. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $ 150,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Bad debt expenses were $ 19,745 and $ 9,866 for the three ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Bad debt expenses were $ 55,936 and $ 88,210 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. 8 Table of Contents QUOTEMEDIA, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) e) Revenue The Company generates substantially all of its revenue from subscriptions for access to its software products and related support. We license financial market data information on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. Our products and services are divided into two main categories: Interactive Content and Data Applications and Portfolio Management and Real-Time Quote Systems. Subscriptions are sold for a fixed fee and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription. The Company does not provide the customer with the right to take possession of its software products at any time. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps: · Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer · Identification of the performance obligations in the contract · Determination of the transaction price · Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract · Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation The Company executes a signed contract with the customer that specifies services to be provided, the payment amounts and terms, and the period of service, among other terms. f) Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted There are no new recently adopted accounting pronouncements for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) , which changes the impairment model for most financial assets, including accounts receivable, and replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The guidance is effective for the Company for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) : Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the complexity associated with applying U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. More specifically, the amendments focus on the guidance for convertible instruments and derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption. 3. PRIOR PERIOD ERROR Subsequent to the filing of its Quarterly Report for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022, the Company reassessed its classification of warrants to purchase shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants” – see Financial Statement Note 7 “ Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and S tockholders ’ Deficit” ). The Company concluded that its original classification of the Preferred Stock Warrants as equity was incorrect and that the Preferred Stock Warrants should have been classified as a liability in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity . The error was not material and resulted in the following revision for the comparative December 31, 2021 Balance Sheet: · Additional Paid-in Capital was reduced by $ 750,000 · Preferred Stock Warrant Liability was increased by $ 513,750 · Accumulated Deficit was reduced by $ 236,250 In addition, Additional Paid-in Capital was reduced by $ 750,000 and Accumulated Deficit was reduced by $ 513,750 for the comparative stockholders’ equity balances as of December 31, 2020, June 30, 2021, and September 30, 2021. 9 Table of Contents QUOTEMEDIA, INC.

RELATED PARTIES The Company entered into a five-year office lease with 410734 B.C. Ltd. effective May 1, 2021 for approximately $ 6,000 per month. David M. Shworan is a control person of 410734 B.C. Ltd. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no amounts due to 410734 B.C. Ltd. The Company entered into a marketing agreement with Bravenet Web Services, Inc. (“Bravenet”) effective November 28, 2019 for approximately $ 2,500 per month. David M. Shworan is a control person of Bravenet. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there was $ 7,500 and $ 11,970 , respectively, due to Bravenet related to this agreement. As a matter of policy all related party transactions are subject to review and approval by the Company’s Board of Directors. 6. LEASES We have operating leases for corporate offices and finance leases for certain equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 5 years . We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets and liabilities are included in property and equipment and finance lease liabilities, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. We elected the short-term lease exception and therefore only recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term greater than one year. When determining lease terms, we factor in options to extend or terminate leases when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For certain leases we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. 10 Table of Contents QUOTEMEDIA, INC.

REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT a) Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 non-designated preferred shares at the Board of Directors’ discretion. A total of 550,000 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock are designated as “Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.” The Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock has no dividend or voting rights. At September 30, 2022, 123,685 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock were outstanding. No shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock were issued or redeemed during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Redemption Rights Holders of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert their shares into shares of common stock at the rate of 83.33 shares of common stock for one share of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, at any time following the date the closing price of a share of common stock on a securities exchange or actively traded over-the-counter market has exceeded $ 0.30 for ninety ( 90 ) consecutive trading days. The conversion rights are subject to the availability of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In addition, 1,000 Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock may be redeemed at the holder’s option at the liquidation value of $ 25 per share if the cash balance of the Company as reported at the end of each fiscal quarter exceeds $ 400,000 . In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 480-10-S99, because a limited number of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock may be redeemed at the holder’s option if the above criteria are met, it was classified as mezzanine equity and not permanent equity. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any distribution or payment is made to any holders of any shares of common stock, the holders of shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid first out of the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to holders of the Company’s capital stock whether such assets are capital, surplus, or earnings, an amount equal to $25.00 per share of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. b) Common stock No shares of common stock were issued during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. c) Stock Options and Warrants FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation , requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount recognized. 12 Table of Contents QUOTEMEDIA, INC.

All stock options and warrants to purchase common stock have been granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant. At September 30, 2022, the aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding was $ 3,147,838 . The aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants exercisable was $ 3,027,838 . The intrinsic value of stock options and warrants are calculated as the amount by which the market price of our common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option or warrant. Preferred Stock Warrants Pursuant to the December 28, 2017 Compensation Agreement with David M. Shworan, the President and Chief Executive Officer of QuoteMedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quotemedia, Inc., the Company issued Mr. Shworan warrants to purchase shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants”) in lieu of a cash salary. From the period December 28, 2017 to December 31, 2019 the Company issued a total of 31,250 Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants at an exercise price equal to $ 1.00 per share. Also pursuant to the Compensation Agreement with Mr. Shworan, on December 28, 2017 the Company issued Mr. Shworan warrants to purchase up to 382,243 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock at an exercise price equal to $ 1.00 per share (“Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrant”). The Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrants only vest and become exercisable on the consummation of a Liquidity Event as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Designation of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. The probability of the liquidity event performance condition is not currently determinable or probable; therefore, no compensation expense has been recognized as of September 30, 2022. The probability is re-evaluated each reporting period. As of September 30, 2022, there was $ 7,185,430 in unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to these Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrants. Since the Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrants only vest and become exercisable on the consummation of a Liquidity Event which is currently determined not to be probable, we are also unable to determine the weighted-average period over which the unrecognized compensation cost will be recognized. 14 Table of Contents QUOTEMEDIA, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) As of September 30, 2022, there were a total of 413,493 preferred stock warrants outstanding with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 25.3 years. As of September 30, 2022, 31,250 preferred stock warrants were exercisable. No preferred stock warrants were granted or exercised for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Fair Value Measurement of Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants The Company adheres to ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, the standard does not require any new fair value measurements of reported balances. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy). · Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company could access. · Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. · Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which is typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The estimated fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrant liability is determined using Level 3 inputs. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrant Liability was $ 500,313 and $ 513,750 , respectively. The Preferred Stock Warrants were valued using a bond plus option framework reflecting the cash flow of the Preferred Stock Warrants and used a probability weighted sum of the value in each potential year before expiration to estimate the fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrants. Volatility was based on public peer companies, adjusted for size and leverage. Risk-free rate was selected based on term matched Treasury securities. Bond repayment depends on the Company’s timely access to the required cash and as such, is discounted at the Company’s assumed borrowing rate. This model was run based on the Management's expected term and probabilities of a liquidity event. The key inputs for the framework were as follows as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021: Valuation Inputs September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021 Expected Time to Expiration (years) 25.30 26.05 Stock Price on Valuation Date $ 0.175 $ 0.16 Peer Volatility 49.49 % 48.79 % Cash Flow Discount Rate 17.80 % 14.56 % 15 Table of Contents QUOTEMEDIA, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Level 3 Preferred Stock Warrant Liability for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2022: Preferred Stock Warrant Liability Fair value as of December 31, 2021 $ 513,750 Change in fair value 73,690 Fair value as of June 30, 2022 587,440 Change in fair value ( 87,127 ) Fair value as of September 30, 2022 $ 500,313 The changes in fair value attributable to the Preferred Stock Warrants are recorded as an adjustment to stock compensation expense and reported in Sales and Marketing expense on the Statements of Operations. The changes in fair value for the Preferred Stock Warrant Liability in the comparative three and nine-months periods ended September 30, 2021 were insignificant. 8. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income during the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding the dilutive effects of common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents include redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted shares outstanding is calculated using the treasury stock method by adding to the weighted shares outstanding any potential shares of common stock from outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants that are in-the-money. In periods when a net loss is reported, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation because they would have an anti-dilutive effect, meaning the loss per share would be reduced. Therefore, in periods when a loss is reported, the calculation of basic and dilutive loss per share results in the same value. The calculations for basic and diluted net income per share for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows: Three-months ended September 30, Nine-months ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Net income $ 309,543 $ 154,931 $ 295,504 $ 98,393 Weighted average shares outstanding - basic and diluted 90,477,798 90,477,798 90,477,798 90,477,798 Stock options and warrants to purchase common stock 16,147,716 15,937,151 16,233,377 16,147,716 Warrants to purchase redeemable convertible preferred stock 2,499,900 2,499,900 2,499,900 2,499,900 Redeemable convertible preferred stock 10,306,671 10,306,671 10,306,671 10,306,671 Weighted average shares outstanding - basic and diluted 119,432,085 119,221,520 119,517,746 119,432,085 Net income per share – basic $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 Net income per share – diluted $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 $ 0.00 9. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM On May 4, 2020, the Company received a $ 133,257 loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides qualifying businesses with these proceeds for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The proceeds and accrued interest are forgivable after twenty-four weeks, known as the covered period, as long as the borrower uses the proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The PPP loan was forgiven in its entirety on February 19, 2021. In accordance with ASC 470, Debt, the forgiveness of the loan was recognized as other income on our consolidated statements of operations in the comparative nine-months ended September 30, 2021 period. 16 Table of Contents
