YANGAROO reports record annual and fourth quarter results

Annual Revenues up 80%, Q4 Revenues Up 80%, Expenses Down 26%

TORONTO, April 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - YANGAROO Inc. (TSX-V: YOO, OTC: YOOIF), the industry's leading secure digital media
distribution company, today announced its results for the year and
fourth quarter ended December 31, 2011. Revenue for the fourth quarter
was $455,756, 80% higher than the revenue for the same period in 2010
and 11% higher than the previous quarter. Revenue for the fiscal year
2011 was $1,449,891, 80% higher than in fiscal 2010.

The increase in revenue is primarily a result of greater use of DMDS for
music video delivery by the major and independent record labels in the
US and Canada, as well as the use of DMDS for advertising delivery
which began to ramp up in the third quarter of the year. Overall, there
was strong growth in all divisions and in all territories with U.S.
revenues up 257% and revenues from Canada growing by 18%. 2011 saw new
revenues for music audio delivery in Australia and the DMDS Awards
business growing by 74%.

Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 was 26%
lower than the previous year. Included in the current year's operating
costs is a one-time charge of $600,000 for the settlement of the
lawsuit with a competitor. The loss from operations for 2011 was
$2,803,383, down from $4,946,943 in 2010. Excluding one-time charges
and non-recurring expenses in 2011 and 2010, the operating loss
declined by $620,859 while revenue for the same period increased by
$643,399.  Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 were
67% lower than the same period in fiscal 2010.  The loss from
operations was down $2,104,555 and revenue was up 80% for the fourth
quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Excluding the
one-time charges and non-recurring expenses in 2010, the fourth quarter
loss from operations declined by 47%.

"The revenue growth is very encouraging, particularly in light of the
modest contribution from Advertising which only began to grow in a
meaningful way during the third quarter," said Gary Moss, President and
CEO YANGAROO Inc. "Equally important is the 100% flow through of the
increase in sales to normalized operating margins. This demonstrates
the scalability of Yangaroo's infrastructure and cost structure. Our
key relationships in the Music and Advertising industries, combined
with an industry leading platform, positions Yangaroo for continued
growth and profitability going forward."
