MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - May 18, 2012) - Peak Positioning Technologies Inc. ("Peak") (TSX VENTURE:PKK) today announced its financial results and reviewed highlights for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012.

Financial Highlights:

• $4,875 in revenues from royalties;
• R&D expenditures of $196,109, before tax credits;
• Net loss of $507,112 for the quarter;
• $661,572 of new equity capital (net of commissions) from private placement closed on April 5, 2012.

Operating Highlights:

• Completed co-development of AiNi™3.0 Mobile Cloud Platform.
• Renegotiated royalty agreement with LongKey-Hong Kong Ltd. ("LongKey").
• Established physical presence in China through shared-cost office with LongKey.

"Our most significant milestone in the first quarter was completing the co-development of the AiNi™3.0 Mobile Cloud Platform for smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices", said Johnson Joseph, Peak's President and CEO. "In early April, AiNi™3.0 was released commercially to China Telecom by our partner, LongKey. What's more, a very positive working relationship with LongKey over the past twelve months led to the renegotiation of our royalty-sharing agreement and the decision to jointly open an office in Taizhou", Mr. Joseph added.

As previously announced, the parties now share royalties generated by the sale of all of LongKey's web and mobile applications, rather than only those co-developed with Peak. Furthermore, to better reflect Peak's contribution to the partnership, the percentage of royalties to be paid to Peak was increased from 15% to 30%.

Looking ahead to the balance of the year, Mr. Joseph is optimistic about Peak's revenue prospects. "The Chinese mobile market is enormous and the most significant opportunity today is a wave of transition from 2G devices to 3G devices that is sweeping the country with a 250% constant average annual growth rate since 2009. The AiNi™ platform and the applications it supports put us in great position to ride that wave so I can't overemphasize the significance of the commercial release and the timing of the release of AiNi™3.0 for both Peak and LongKey. With the new royalty structure now in place, the stage is set for us to generate sustained revenue growth from our business in China through to the year-end and in the years ahead", he stated.

First Quarter Financial Results Summary

Peak generated $4,875 in royalty revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as a result of an ongoing pilot project in China and the sharing of royalties with LongKey. There were no revenues in the first quarter of the prior year. Although the early returns from the Chinese partnership continue to be modest, they are indicative of the success Peak and LongKey are enjoying in co-developing software with the potential for significant revenue growth in future quarters.

Expenses for the three-month period amounted to $511,987 in 2012 compared to $1,082,648 in the comparable period of 2011. The higher 2011 expenses included $563,000 of costs associated with Peak becoming a public company.

The first quarter expenses include R&D expenditures of $196,109 compared to $84,579 in the comparable period of 2011. These costs are before deducting investment tax credits, which are accounted for on an annual basis only.

The net loss for the three-month period ending March 31, 2012 was $507,112 compared to $1,082,648 in the comparable period of 2011.

On April 5, 2012, Peak raised $661,572 (net of commissions) of new equity capital through a private placement.
