YATRA ONLINE, INC. ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR

THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2021

Gurugram, India and New York August 19, 2021- Yatra Online, Inc. (NASDAQ: YTRA, OTCQX: YTROF), India's leading corporate travel services provider and one of India's leading online travel companies, today announced its unaudited financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

'India was particularly severely hit by the second wave of Covid-19 experiencing daily case counts of over 400,000 during the quarter. The impact was widespread and touched most of us personally as well with family and friends being impacted. Despite such challenging conditions, we continued to execute strongly and though our Adjusted Revenue dropped by 49.6% sequentially to INR 488.7 million, our stringent cost control measures enabled up to deliver positive Adjusted EBITDA of INR 38.8 million. Fortunately, India appears to have managed to bring the second wave under control through a combination of a tight lockdowns and mass vaccinations. Over 500 million people in India have now received at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine and India is currently administering approximately 5 million doses a day. We are beginning to see demand also re-emerge strongly on account of the low case counts and vaccination drive in India. In the month of July 2021, industry air passenger numbers grew 61% as compared to June 2021 and we are beginning to see signs of recovery in corporate travel as well, as more and more employees get fully vaccinated. During the month of July 2021, gross booking for corporates grew 268% as compared to June 2021 and August 2021 is currently trending at 316% growth as compared to June 2021. We are optimistic about the growth and recovery based on the trends that we are witnessing in the months of July and August and believe that our healthy balance sheet puts us in a strong position to capitalize as the recovery continues to gain momentum.' - Dhruv Shringi, Co-founder and CEO.

Recent Developments

COVID-19 Pandemic

Toward the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021, a severe second wave of COVID-19 infections emerged in India that has been more severe than the first wave that occurred in 2020. This second wave has led to the re-imposition, since April 2021, of states-wide travel restrictions, lock downs and curfews across India, with some such measures still ongoing, resulting in a significant negative impact on revenue for all our reportable segments in the three months ended June 30, 2021. As a result, the Indian travel industry is experiencing a delayed recovery of business and international travel to pre-pandemic levels. Per global analytics company CRISIL, it is expected that airline traffic volume in this fiscal year will be approximately 60% of the fiscal 2020 volume, with recovery to pre-pandemic levels anticipated by the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2023. However, it is difficult for us to predict how long the second wave will continue and what impact this may have on the travel sector and our business. The extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, results of operations, cash flows and growth prospects remain uncertain and would be dependent on future developments. These include, but are not limited to, the severity, extent and duration of the pandemic, its impact on the travel industries and consumer spending, rates of vaccination and the effectiveness of vaccinations against various mutations or variants of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We continue to implement certain measures and modified certain policies in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, we have largely automated our re-scheduling and cancellation of bookings and provided our customers greater flexibility to defer or cancel their travel plans. In addition, we have also undertaken certain cost reduction initiatives, including implementing salary reductions and freezes and work from home policies, renegotiating fixed costs such as rent, deferring non-critical capital expenditures, reducing our marketing expenses and renegotiating our supplier payments and contracts. We believe these cost control measures have helped mitigate the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business. We expect to continue to adapt our policies and cost reduction initiatives as the situation evolves.

Ebix Litigation Update

On June 5, 2020, we provided to Ebix, Inc., or Ebix, a notice terminating the Merger Agreement dated as of July 16, 2019 by and among us, Ebix, and EbixCash Travels Inc., or EbixCash, and filed a complaint, or the Complaint, in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against Ebix and EbixCash for their various breaches of the Merger Agreement and an ancillary agreement executed by the parties on May 14, 2020, or the Extension Agreement. The Complaint alleges that Ebix breached its representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations in the Merger Agreement and Extension Agreement and that its conduct prevented the parties from closing the merger. The Complaint seeks monetary damages, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, and our reasonable fees and costs. On August 14, 2020, Ebix filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint. On September 30, 2020, Yatra filed an amended complaint by expanding its claims against certain banks of Ebix, while also expanding the claims alleged against Ebix to include a claim for fraud. In addition, we have also sued Ebix for fraud and sued Ebix's consortium of lenders for tortious interference with contractual relations. The arguments on the motion to dismiss were heard on May 17, 2021 and the parties are awaiting the Court's ruling on the motions. The outcome of legal proceedings generally, regardless of the merits, is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that we will prevail in the litigation against Ebix. In addition, litigation and related matters are costly and may divert the attention of our management and other employee resources that would otherwise be engaged in other activities, which could adversely impact our business. If any claims are brought against us and result in a finding of legal liability or if we were unable to prevail in our claims in this litigation, our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, allegations of wrongful conduct by Ebix, regardless of veracity, may harm our reputation, which may also adversely impact our business and growth prospects.

Results of Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Revenue. We generated Revenue of INR 306.9 million (USD 4.1 million) in the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of 59.9% compared with INR 192.0 million (USD 2.6 million) in three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in Revenue was primarily due to recovery in domestic travel demand relative to the quarter ended June 30, 2020 during which the first nationwide lockdown due to COVID-19 was imposed.

Our Revenue in the current reported quarter decreased from INR 506.9 million (USD 6.8 million) in the three months ended March 31, 2021; a decline of INR 200.0 million (USD 2.7 million) quarter-over-quarter due to a severe second wave of COVID-19 infections that emerged in India leading to lower demand due to re-imposed travel restrictions.

Service cost. Our Service cost increased to INR 9.4 million (USD 0.1 million) in the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to Service cost of INR Nil (USD Nil) in the three months ended June 30, 2020, primarily due to increased sales of holiday packages due to the recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

On a sequential basis, Service cost decreased by INR 4.4 million (USD 0.1 million), or 31.7% quarter-over-quarter, compared to Service cost of INR 13.8 million (USD 0.2 million) in the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to a severe second wave of COVID-19 infections that emerged during the quarter in India, leading to lower demand due to re-imposed travel restrictions.

Adjusted Revenue(1) Our Adjusted Revenue increased by 106.9% to INR 488.7 million (USD 6.6 million) in the three months ended June 30, 2021 from INR 236.2 million (USD 3.2 million) in the three months ended June 30, 2020. In the three months ended June 30, 2021, Adjusted Revenue includes the add-back of expenses in the nature of consumer promotion and certain loyalty program costs reduced from Revenue of INR 112.2 million (USD 1.5 million) in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an add-back of INR 15.2 million (USD 0.2 million) in the three months ended June 30, 2020. These expenses have been added back to calculate Adjusted Revenue, with the accompanying increase in marketing and sales promotions expenses, to more accurately reflect the way we view our ongoing business. Under IFRS 15, these expenses are required to be reduced from Revenue, an IFRS measure. The increase in Adjusted Revenue resulted mainly from an increase of 81.3% in our Adjusted Revenue from Air Ticketing along with an increase of 279.1% in our Adjusted Revenue from Hotels and Packages and increase of 149.4% in Others (Including Other Income) which primarily consists of advertisement income, facilitation fees and income on liabilities no longer required to be paid and gain from the termination of, and rent concession from leases.

On a sequential basis Adjusted Revenue decreased by INR 481.4 million (USD 6.5 million), or 49.6%, quarter-over-quarter, compared to Adjusted Revenue of INR 970.1 million (USD 13.1 million) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 due to a severe second wave of COVID-19 infections that emerged during the quarter in India, leading to lower demand due to re-imposed travel restrictions.

Certain Non-IFRS Measures

As certain parts of our Revenue are recognized on a 'net' basis and other parts of our Revenue are recognized on a 'gross' basis, we evaluate our financial performance based on Adjusted Revenue, which is a non-IFRS measure. Effective April 1, 2018, we adopted the new Revenue recognition standard, IFRS 15, under which promotional expenses in the nature of customer inducement/acquisition costs for acquiring customers and promoting transactions across various booking platforms, such as upfront incentives and loyalty programs cost, some of which, when incurred were previously recorded as marketing and sales promotion costs, are now being recorded as a reduction of Revenue.

We believe that Adjusted Revenue provides investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business and more accurately reflects the value addition of the travel services that we provide to our customers. The presentation of this non-IFRS information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB'). Our Adjusted Revenue may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.

In addition to referring to Adjusted Revenue, we also refer to Adjusted EBITDA Profit/ (Loss), Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Loss for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Loss Per Share which are also non-IFRS measures. For our internal management reporting, budgeting and decision making purposes, including comparing our operating results to that of our competitors, these non-IFRS financial measures exclude employee share-based compensation cost and change in fair value of warrants. Our non-IFRS financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following:

● Employee share-based compensation cost - The compensation cost to be recorded is dependent on varying available valuation methodologies and subjective assumptions that companies can use while valuing these expenses especially when adopting IFRS 2 'Share-based Payment'. Thus, the management believes that providing non-IFRS financial measures that exclude such expenses allows investors to make additional comparisons between our operating results and those of other companies.
● Change in fair value of warrants - Consequent to consummation of the business combination, the Company assumed 34.67 million warrants having a right to subscribe for 17.33 million ordinary shares of the Company and the warrants issued to Macquarie Corporate Holdings PTY Limited. The accounting guidance requires that we record any change in the fair value of these warrants in consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive loss. We have excluded the effect of the implied fair value changes in calculating our non-IFRS financial measures.
(1) See the section titled 'Certain Non-IFRS Measures.'

We evaluate the performance of our business after excluding the impact of above measures and believe it is useful to understand the effects of these items on our results from operations, Loss for the period and basic and diluted loss per share. The presentation of these non-IFRS measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. These non-IFRS measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to potential differences in the method of calculation.

A limitation of using Adjusted EBITDA profit / (loss), Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Loss for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted loss Per Share as against using the measures in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB are that these non-IFRS financial measures exclude share-based compensation cost, change in fair value of warrants and depreciation and amortization in case of Adjusted EBITDA profit / (loss). Management compensates for this limitation by providing specific information on the IFRS amounts excluded from Adjusted EBITDA profit /(loss), Adjusted Results from Operations, Adjusted Loss for the Period and Adjusted Basic and Adjusted Diluted Loss Per Share.
