Snakk to release Q1 revenues at AGM
Live webcast of AGM and panel event details revealed

AUCKLAND, New Zealand, 21 August 2013 - Snakk Media Limited will announce its
unaudited revenues from the April-June first quarter at its Annual General
Meeting (AGM) on Monday, 26 August 2013.

The AGM will be streamed live on the company's investor relations website,
www.snk.co.nz from the Te Iringa room (WG308) of the Sir Paul Reeves
Building, 55 Wellesley Street, AUT University, from 4pm.

Presenting at the AGM will be Snakk Media Group CEO Mark Ryan as well as the
company's two co-founders: Chairman Derek Handley and General Manager Andrew
Jacobs. Other key members of the Snakk team will also be at the event,
including Group Partnerships Manager Max Flanigan, NZ Sales Director Rowan
Spinks; and Board Members Michelle Kong and Tim Alpe.

The live webcast will continue after the AGM with an event from 6pm featuring
expert analysis and a panel discussion on how tomorrow's consumers, marketers
and media producers will adapt to a world with more screens, more channels
and more companies collecting information about them.

The four panellists, who work and live at the intersection of media, digital,
social and technology, include Mediacom's Digital General Manager and TVNZ
Gadget Guy John Buckley, who has worked at some of New Zealand's leading
advertising businesses and media agencies; Mediaworks "Director of
Interactive" Siobhan McKenna, who set up the company's New Media division
seven years ago; award-winning Trigger Happy CEO and Co-Founder Shona Grundy,
who last week released a new animated digital storytelling iPad app called
Toon Hero, available in 14 languages around the world; and entrepreneur Derek
Handley.

Moderating the panel discussion will be creative ad veteran Vaughn Davis,
who, along with founding and running The Goat Farm, is a regular social media
commentator and content director for the annual TedX Auckland.

"We are opening up the AGM and the subsequent panel discussion event so that
anyone can tune in to watch, whether in person or remotely from a tablet or
smartphone," says Snakk Group CEO Mark Ryan.

"Snakk is a company that seeks to transform the way brands communicate with
consumers using their smart screens. We have more than 3500 shareholders from
all over New Zealand and other parts of the world, and we feel that making
our investor communications more accessible and convenient via smart screens
is every bit as important. We're looking forward to an exciting AGM and an
evening of insightful discussion on what our fast-moving industry looks like
now, and where our expert panel feel it's heading. It's going to be a
fantastic night."

A report released last week from the New Zealand Interactive Advertising
Bureau (IAB)  shows New Zealand smartphone penetration has reached 53%, and a
representative from IAB was quoted in recent media reports saying this number
is expected to reach 70% early next year.

The report showed the biggest growth online advertising in the second
calendar quarter of this year came from mobile advertising, which surged by
73% year-on-year and 15% from the first quarter.
