ONE CARIBBEAN MEDIA LIMITED

CONSOLIDATED AUDITED RESULTS FOR FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31ST, 2021

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

We are pleased to report a significantly improved performance for 2021.

Revenues of TT$307M (US$45M) were relatively flat compared to the prior year, while Profit Before Tax and Impairment increased by 22% from TT$24.1M (US$3.5M) in 2020 to TT$29.4M (US$4.3M) in 2021.

The Group also reflected growth in its Total Assets of 7% and Earnings per Share increased from TT$0.05 (US$0.01) to TT$0.27 (US$0.04) in 2021.

These results, in the main, were from the efficiencies realised from the restructuring of operations in the prior year and the gradual easing of restrictions associated with the Pandemic.

Our Non-Media assets, which include Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and Renewable Energyinvestments, continued to make a meaningful contribution to the Group's performance.

We are cautiously optimistic that the Group's businesses will continue to show improved performance as Covid-19 restrictions are eased and regional economies embark on recovery.

Your Directors have approved a dividend of TT$0.17 per share, payable on 30th June 2022.
