Recurring Revenue Growth While Weathering COVID-19 Crisis

TORONTO, June 19, 2020 /CNW/ - BlueRush Inc. ("BlueRush" or the "Company") (TSXV: BTV), an emerging personalized video Software as a Service ("SaaS") company, today announced its financial results for the three-month ("Q3 2020") and nine-month ("YTD 2020") periods ended April 30, 2020.

"Our third fiscal quarter of 2020 yielded yet another successful three-month period of stacking our recurring revenue," said Steve Taylor, CEO of BlueRush. "We achieved a 173% increase in subscription & support revenue versus last year, all in the midst of weathering the impacts of the COVID-19 crisis, demonstrating BlueRush's ability to produce quality projects as well as the need for financial institutions to adopt our IndiVideo software."

"During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been able to illustrate to our existing customers, as well as prospective clients, the increased need to embrace more meaningful communication techniques with their client base. IndiVideo is the perfect software tool to describe simple or complex financial products to customers while avoiding in-person meetings, reducing print volumes on statements and reducing call center impact. We recognize the challenges that so many companies around the world are facing. We are confident that IndiVideo can be part of the solution as we all navigate this 'new world', while still delivering meaningful personalized content at scale."

"In 2018 we announced our strategy to transform BlueRush from a services-focused digital agency into a subscription revenue focused product company. The continued growth of the subscription business and addition of marquis customers around the world is great validation of all the work our amazing team here at BlueRush has done and will continue to do." stated Mr. Taylor.
