NEW YORK, Feb. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ - Voyager
Digital Ltd. ("Voyager" or the "Company") (TSX: VOYG) (OTCQX:
VYGVF) (FRA: UCD2) one of the fastest-growing, publicly traded
cryptocurrency platforms in the United
States, today announced revenue and user metrics for the
Fiscal 2022 Second Quarter ended December
31, 2021.
"I am excited to report our best quarter ever, doubling our
revenue from the previous quarter, and highlighting Voyager's
positioning and revenue opportunity in active markets," said
Steve Ehrlich, CEO and Co-founder of
Voyager. Ehrlich continued, "More importantly, we delivered
significant revenue growth and supported a marked increase in
customer activity without any material system issues during the
quarter, highlighting the steps we've taken to build out the scale
and security of the Voyager platform in 2021, as we position
Voyager for a series of product roll outs in calendar 2022.
"We are a product delivery organization and are taking the
necessary steps to continue our revenue diversification strategy,"
continued Mr. Ehrlich. "The launch of our Voyager Debit Card, which
allows for payroll direct deposits, is the next step in revenue
diversification. We recently added engineering resources to
our team which allowed us to add more tokens to the trading
platform, and tokens available for staking. By the end of the March
quarter, we expect our desktop platform and dark mode will be added
to our product offering. We are also building towards adding
equities to the platform, expanding the platform to Europe and Canada, and offering an NFT product and
wallet. All of these are significant opportunities for the Company;
and with our NFT platform we intend to make the viewing, acquiring
and custody of NFTs easy for consumers."

Forward Looking Statements
Certain information in this press release, including, but not
limited to, statements regarding future growth and performance of
the business, momentum in the businesses, future adoption of
digital assets, and the Company's anticipated results may
constitute forward looking information (collectively,
forward-looking statements), which can be identified by the use of
terms such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "anticipate,"
"project," "estimate," "intend," "continue" or "believe" (or the
negatives) or other similar variations. Forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
that may cause Voyager's actual results, performance or
achievements to be materially different from any of its future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in a very
competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from
time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all
risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business
or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may
cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in
any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these
risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends
discussed in this press release may not occur and actual results
could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or
implied in the forward-looking statements. Forward looking
statements are subject to the risk that the global economy,
industry, or the Company's businesses and investments do not
perform as anticipated, that revenue or expenses estimates may not
be met or may be materially less or more than those anticipated,
that trading momentum does not continue or the demand for trading
solutions declines, customer acquisition does not increase as
planned, product and international expansion do not occur as
planned, risks of compliance with laws and regulations that
currently apply or become applicable to the business or the
interpretation or application of laws and regulations by regulatory
authorities, and those other risks contained in the Company's
public filings, including in its Management Discussion and Analysis
and its Annual Information Form (AIF). Factors that could cause
actual results of the Company and its businesses to differ
materially from those described in such forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, a decline in the digital asset
market or general economic conditions; changes in laws or
approaches to regulation, regulatory investigations, enforcement
actions or other regulatory action or sanction, the failure or
delay in the adoption of digital assets and the blockchain
ecosystem by institutions; changes in the volatility of crypto
currency, changes in demand for Bitcoin and Ethereum, changes in
the status or classification of cryptocurrency assets,
cybersecurity breaches, a delay or failure in developing
infrastructure for the trading businesses or achieving mandates and
gaining traction; failure to grow assets under management, an
adverse development with respect to an issuer or party to the
transaction or failure to obtain a required regulatory approval. In
connection with the forward-looking statements contained in this
press release, the Company has made assumptions that no significant
events occur outside of the Company's normal course of business and
that current trends in respect of digital assets continue. Readers
are cautioned that the key metrics disclosed in this press release,
including, without limitation, Assets Under Management and
trading volumes fluctuate and may increase and decrease from time
to time and that such fluctuations are beyond the Company's
control. Forward-looking statements, past and present performance
and trends are not guarantees of future performance, accordingly,
you should not put undue reliance on forward-looking statements,
current or past performance, or current or past trends. Information
identifying assumptions, risks, and uncertainties relating to the
Company are contained in its filings with the Canadian securities
regulators available at www.sedar.com. The forward-looking
statements in this press release are applicable only as of the date
of this release or as of the date specified in the relevant
forward-looking statement and the Company undertakes no obligation
to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or
circumstances after that date or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events. The Company assumes no obligation to provide
operational updates, except as required by law. If the Company does
update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should
be drawn that it will make additional updates with respect to those
or other forward-looking statements, unless required by
law. Readers are cautioned that past performance is not
indicative of future performance and current trends in the business
and demand for digital assets may not continue and readers should
not put undue reliance on past performance and current
trends. Refer to definition of certain Non-IFRS terms in
Management's Discussion and Analysis including Assets On Platform,
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Working Capital. All figures are
