CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our plans, strategies and prospects, both business and financial. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot provide assurance that we will achieve or realize these plans, intentions or expectations. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Investors should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations, contain projects of future results of operations or financial condition; or state other “forward-looking” information. Forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this Quarterly Report and may involve significant judgments and assumptions, known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside our control. There may be events in the future that management is not able to predict accurately or over which we have no control. We do not undertake any obligation to update to otherwise correct any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events, inaccuracies that become apparent after the date hereof or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable laws. The risk factors and cautionary language contained in this Quarterly Report provide examples of risks, uncertainties, and events that may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations described in such forward-looking statements, including among other things:

| ● | our ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination (as defined below), which may be affected by, among other things, our ability to grow and manage growth profitably, maintain relationships with customers, compete within our industry and retain key employees;

| ● | the possibility that we may be adversely impacted by economic, business, and/or competitive factors;

| ● | our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects;

| ● | our inability to effectively manage future growth and achieve operational efficiencies;

| ● | our recent and rapid growth may not be indicative of future performance;

| ● | we may not continue to grow or maintain our active user base, and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability;

| ● | spam activity, including inauthentic and fraudulent user activity, if undetected, may contribute, from time to time, to some amount of overstatement of our performance indicators;

| ● | we collect, store, and process large amounts of user video content and personal information of our users and subscribers. If our security measures are breached, our sites and applications may be perceived as not being secure, traffic and advertisers may curtail or stop viewing our content or using our services, our business and operating results could be harmed, and we could face governmental investigations and legal claims from users and subscribers;

| ● | Rumble Cloud, our recently launched cloud services business may not achieve our objectives for the business on our desired timeframe or at all, and as a result, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected;

| ● | negative media campaigns may harm our reputation, may adversely impact our relationships with our business partners, including content creators and advertisers, and may adversely affect user activity or engagement, and as a result, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected;

ii

| ● | real or perceived inaccuracies in our performance metrics could raise questions about the usefulness of such metrics, may make it more difficult for investors to accurately assess our performance over time and may harm our reputation, resulting in adverse effects on our business, financial condition or results of operations;

| ● | we may fail to comply with applicable privacy laws;

| ● | we are subject to cybersecurity risks and interruptions or failures in our information technology systems and as we grow and gain recognition, we will likely need to expend additional resources to enhance our protection from such risks. Notwithstanding our efforts, a cyber incident could occur and result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or financial loss;

| ● | we may be found to have infringed on the intellectual property of others, which could expose us to substantial losses or restrict our operations;

| ● | we may face liability for hosting a variety of tortious or unlawful materials uploaded by third parties, notwithstanding the liability protections of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996;

| ● | we may face negative publicity for removing, or declining to remove, certain content, regardless of whether such content violated any law;

| ● | our traffic growth, engagement, and monetization depend upon effective operation within and compatibility with operating systems, networks, devices, web browsers and standards, including mobile operating systems, networks, and standards that we do not control;

| ● | our business depends on continued and unimpeded access to our content and services on the internet. If we or those who engage with our content experience disruptions in internet service, or if internet service providers are able to block, degrade or charge for access to our content and services, we could incur additional expenses and the loss of traffic and advertisers;

| ● | we face significant market competition, and if we are unable to compete effectively with our competitors for traffic and advertising spend, our business and operating results could be harmed;

| ● | changes to our existing content and services could fail to attract traffic and advertisers or fail to generate revenue;

| ● | we depend on third-party vendors, including internet service providers, advertising networks, and data centers, to provide core services;

| ● | hosting and delivery costs may increase unexpectedly;

| ● | we have offered and intend to continue to offer incentives, including economic incentives, to content creators to join our platform, and these arrangements often involve fixed payment obligations that are not contingent on actual revenue or performance metrics generated by the applicable content creator but rather are typically based on our modeled financial projections for that creator, which if not satisfied may adversely impact our financial performance, results of operations and liquidity;

iii

| ● | we may be unable to develop or maintain effective internal controls;

| ● | potential diversion of management’s attention and consumption of resources as a result of acquisitions of other companies and success in integrating and otherwise achieving the benefits of recent and potential acquisitions;

| ● | we may fail to maintain adequate operational and financial resources or raise additional capital or generate sufficient cash flows;

| ● | we may be adversely impacted by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors;

| ● | changes in tax rates, changes in tax treatment of companies engaged in e-commerce, the adoption of new tax legislation, or exposure to additional tax liabilities may adversely impact our financial results;

| ● | compliance obligations imposed by new privacy laws, laws regulating social media platforms and online speech in the U.S. and Canada, regulations regarding paid endorsements by content creators, or industry practices may adversely affect our business; and

| ● | other risks and uncertainties indicated in this Quarterly Report, including those under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” herein, and other filings that we have made or will make with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

1. | Overview and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

Rumble Inc. (“Rumble” or the “Company”) is a full-service video technology provider offering customizable video players, original content videos, and a library of advertisements for use with its video players. The Company’s registered office is located at 444 Gulf of Mexico Drive, Longboat Key, Florida, 34228. The Company’s shares of Class A common stock and warrants are traded on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “RUM” and “RUMBW”, respectively.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (the “financial statements”) are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the results of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative guidance found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. These financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company, except where otherwise indicated.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“Annual Financial Statements”). These financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies that were described in Note 3 to the Annual Financial Statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates the estimates used, which include but are not limited to the: evaluation of revenue recognition criteria; collectability of accounts receivable; valuation of share-based compensation awards; estimates in the determination of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations; valuation of financial instruments measured at fair value through profit and loss; assessment and recoverability of long-lived assets; useful lives of long-lived assets, including goodwill; and the realization of tax assets, estimates of tax liabilities, and valuation of deferred taxes. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the impact of any revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period in which such revisions are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates, judgments, or assumptions, and such differences could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

The Company has elected the practical expedient to not recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases, which are those leases with a term of twelve months or less at the commencement date.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company issued equity awards such as stock options and restricted stock units for certain of its employees, advisory board members, directors, officers and consultants. The Company measures all share-based compensation awards using a fair value-based measure. For awards with a market condition, the market condition is taken into consideration in the fair value-based measure, whereas service and performance conditions are taken into consideration in determining the share-based compensation expense.

For equity awards granted that have only a service condition, the Company recognizes the share-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The vesting period for the equity awards granted is determined by the Company’s board of directors and the typical vesting period for equity awards with service conditions range from ten months to four years. The requisite service period for Rumble’s equity awards subject only to service conditions is coterminous with the vesting period specific to those equity awards.

For equity awards with either a market condition or a performance condition, the Company determines the fair value of each tranche of the award, and then recognizes the share-based compensation expense associated with each tranche of the award over the requisite service period for that tranche. For equity awards with a performance condition, the Company assesses the likelihood of the performance condition underlying an award being met, and recognizes a share-based compensation expense associated with that award only if it is probable the performance condition will be met. Where the performance condition underlying an award is a change in control, the Company considers the performance condition to be probable only when it occurs.

Forfeitures are accounted for when they occur.

Business Combinations

The Company evaluates whether acquired net assets should be accounted for as a business combination or an asset acquisition by first applying a screen test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If so, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If not, the Company applies its judgement to determine whether the acquired net assets meets the definition of a business by considering if the set includes an acquired input, process, and the ability to create outputs.

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when it has obtained control. The Company measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred including the fair value of any non-controlling interest recognized, less the net recognized amount of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured at their fair value as of the acquisition date. Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issuance of debt or equity securities, that the Company incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.

| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Business Combination (Continued)

Any contingent consideration is measured at fair value at the acquisition date. For contingent consideration that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, such contingent consideration are required to be recorded at their initial fair value at the acquisition date, and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of liability-classified contingent consideration are recognized on the condensed consolidated interim statements of operations in the period of change.

When the initial accounting for a business combination has not been finalized by the end of the reporting period in which the transaction occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts. Provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, which does not exceed one year from the acquisition date. These adjustments, or recognition of additional assets or liabilities, reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.

Accounting Standards Adopted

Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance was subsequently amended by ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements, ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements, ASU 2019-05, Targeted Transition Relief, ASU 2019-10, Effective Dates, and ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements. These ASUs are effective for Smaller Reporting Companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods therein. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

| 3. | Business Combinations

On May 15, 2023 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Callin Corp. (“Callin”), a podcasting and live streaming platform. Callin creates a seamless experience for its users to create, discover, and consume live and recorded content. The Company has determined that Callin meets the definition of a business and has accounted for the acquisition as a business combination. A provisional estimate of the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by the Company in connection with the acquisition is as follows:

Total consideration |  | $ | 18,226,572 |
Net assets acquired: |  |  |  |
Cash |  | $ | 1,000,989 |
Accounts receivable |  |  | 10,939 |
Prepaid expenses |  |  | 200,651 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 37,841 |
Intangible assets |  |  | 7,758,000 |
Accounts payable, accruals, and other liabilities |  |  | (1,137,814 | )
Deferred tax liability |  |  | (1,629,180 | )
Total net assets acquired |  | $ | 6,241,426 |
Goodwill |  | $ | 11,985,146 |

| 3. | Business Combinations (Continued)

The provisional estimate of fair value of the consideration consists of the following:

|  | Fair Value |
Shares issued |  | $ | 6,055,409 |
Shares to be issued |  |  | 3,747,209 |
Replacement awards |  |  | 15,578 |
Contingent consideration (liability) – retention payments |  |  | 3,491,741 |
Contingent consideration (equity) – milestone 1 |  |  | 2,490,152 |
Contingent consideration (equity) – milestone 2 |  |  | 2,356,483 |
Contingent consideration payable |  |  | 70,000 |
Total consideration |  | $ | 18,226,572 |

Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, the Company is required to issue upfront share consideration of 981,243 shares of Class A Common Stock to the preferred shareholders and SAFE note holders of Callin, of which 606,147 shares had been issued as of September 30, 2023. The fair value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the acquisition date was $9.99 per share. In addition, the Company issued rights to four payments of 375,000 contingently issuable shares of Class A Common Stock to the common shareholders, series FF preferred shareholders, option holders and continuing employees of Callin contingent on the following conditions being met:

| ● | Retention payment 1: Services are provided by a selling shareholder for 12 months;

| ● | Retention payment 2: Services are provided by a selling shareholder for 24 months;

| ● | Milestone payment 1: Within 12 months, certain feature development and technical performance criteria are achieved, and the acquired technology is integrated into the Company’s existing software and

| ● | Milestone payment 2: Within 24 months, certain feature development and technical performance criteria are achieved.

In assessing what is part of the business combination, the Company has determined that because the two retention payments are contingent on a selling shareholder providing services post-combination, the portion of those tranches earned by the party providing services should be reflected in the Company’s financial statements as post-combination expense. In addition, where future services are required by employees in order to earn rights to the contingent consideration, such rights are being accounted for either entirely as post-combination expense or as replacement awards where the rights replace unvested options or restricted series FF preferred shares that were originally granted by Callin. For the remainder, the four tranches of contingently issuable shares have been accounted for as contingent consideration.

The following table shows the breakdown of the contingently issuable shares:

|  | Number of Shares |
Contingent consideration |  |  | 903,689 |
Share-based compensation (Note 13) |  |  | 596,311 |
Total contingently issuable shares |  |  | 1,500,000 |

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

| 3. | Business Combinations (Continued)

The fair value of the contingent consideration has been estimated as follows:

Retention payments 1 and 2

The Company has determined that retention payments 1 and 2 are one unit of account requiring the Company to issue a variable number of shares that is not indexed to the Company’s stock. As a result, the consideration that is contingent on one of the selling shareholder’s providing services has been classified as a liability. The contingent consideration is classified Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The key inputs into the fair value determination are the expected number of shares to be issued and the share price on the acquisition date. At the acquisition date, management estimated the number of shares to be issued is 349,523. The Company has recognized a change in fair value of this contingent consideration of $1,709,173 due to the change in the Company’s stock price and the probability of each contingency being met during the period between the acquisition date and the period end.

Milestone payments 1 and 2

The Company has determined that milestone payments 1 and 2 are separate units of account because a fixed number of shares will be issued if each contingency is met, and meeting one contingency is not dependent on the other. The key inputs into the fair value determination are the probability of each contingency being met, and the share price on the acquisition date.

Due to the complexity of the valuation process and short period between the acquisition date and the period end, the identification and measurement of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, as well as the measurement of consideration and contingent consideration is provisional and is subject to adjustment upon the completion of the valuation process and analysis of resulting tax effects. The Company will finalize the accounting for the acquisition no later than one year from the acquisition date and will reflect these adjustments in the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined as required by ASC 805. Differences between these provisional estimates and the final acquisition accounting may occur and these differences could have a material impact on the Company’s future financial position and results of operations.

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company adjusted certain provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date. An adjustment was made to increase upfront share consideration by $143,716 with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

The acquired goodwill relates to Callin’s workforce and synergies that are expected to be realized upon the integration of Callin’s technology with the Rumble platform. Such synergies will include the ability to leverage the creator relationships that Rumble has secured to date and will allow for a greater ability to establish brand recognition and monetization of the Callin platform in the future. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Acquisition-related transaction costs incurred by the Company in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $130,833 and $835,035, respectively.

The following table reflects the continuity of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) transactions:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, 2023 |
|  | Number |  |  | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value |
Outstanding, beginning of year |  |  | 1,548,098 |  |  | $ | 11.62 |

The total unrecognized compensation cost for the RSUs issued is $14,843,463 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.89 years.

Stock Options

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company issued stock options that were subject to certain performance or service conditions.

The grant date fair values of the options issued on various dates were in the range of $4.67 to $9.23 per option.

Additionally, the option holders are eligible to receive up to an aggregate of 28,587,396 shares of Class A Common Stock in respect of the options they hold if the closing price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $15.00 and $17.50, respectively (with 50% released at each target, or if the latter target is reached first, 100%) for a period of 20 trading days during any 30 trading-day period. The term will expire September 16, 2027. If there is a change in control prior to September 16, 2027 resulting in a per share price equal to or in excess of the $15.00 and $17.50 share price milestones not previously met, then the Company shall issue the earnout shares to the option holders.

The total unrecognized compensation cost for options with a service only condition and options with a performance condition as of September 30, 2023 was $12,921,320 and $3,000,000, respectively. For the options with a service only condition, the cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.22 years.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company has determined that it is not probable that the conditions related to the performance-based stock options will be met, and therefore, the Company has not recognized the related expense in the condensed consolidated interim statement of operations.

The weighted average fair value of the outstanding options with a service only condition and options with a performance condition as of September 30, 2023 was $0.97 and $8.37, respectively.

Rights to Contingent Consideration

In connection with the acquisition of Callin as described in Note 3, the Company was required to replace unvested options, unvested series FF preferred shares, and restricted common stock held by continuing employees of Callin with a right to receive contingent consideration. If the underlying contingencies are met, the obligation will be satisfied by the issuance of shares of Class A Common Stock. In addition, as described in Note 3, two of the contingent consideration tranches are dependent on one selling shareholder providing services to the Company.

Rights to Contingent Consideration (Continued)

Where rights to receive contingent consideration were issued to replace unvested awards of the acquired company, the Company has allocated an amount to consideration based on the fair value of the original award at the acquisition date. The amount allocated is based on the period of time vested as of the acquisition date in relation to the greater of the vesting period of the original award and the total service requirement as per the below. The difference between the fair value of the new award on the acquisition date and the amount allocated to consideration is post-combination expense, as laid out below:

|  | Fair value |
Allocated to consideration |  | $ | 15,578 |
Allocated to post-combination services |  |  | 5,941,563 |
Total fair value of rights |  | $ | 5,957,141 |

The portion of the fair value allocated to post-combination services will be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations over the remaining service period.

|  | Service Conditions |  |  | Performance Conditions |
Outstanding, beginning of year |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |
Granted |  |  | 351,063 |  |  |  | 245,248 |
Forfeited |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |
Outstanding, end of period |  |  | 351,063 |  |  |  | 245,248 |

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, share-based compensation expense of $1,058,030 and $1,566,163 was recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statement of operations related to the rights to contingent consideration (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $nil and $nil). As of September 30, 2023, there was $2,702,342 and $1,673,059 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to rights with a service only condition, and rights with a performance condition, respectively. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.45 years and 1.34 years, respectively.

| 14. | Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to the Company by the weighted-average number of Class A and Class C Common Stock outstanding, excluding those held in escrow as these are deemed to be contingently returnable shares that must be returned if the earnout contingency is not met during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Shares of Class D Common Stock do not share in earnings and not participating securities (i.e. non-economic shares) and therefore, have been excluded from the calculation of weighted-average number of shares outstanding.

Diluted loss per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares. Diluted loss per share for all periods presented is the same as basic loss per share as the inclusion of potentially issuable shares would be antidilutive.

| 15. | Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

The Company has minimum contractual cash commitments of approximately $130 million as of September 30, 2023, which are primarily related to programming and content, leases, and other service arrangements. The majority of these commitments will be paid over five years commencing in 2023.

In addition to the minimum contractual cash commitments, the Company has programming and content agreements that have variable cost arrangements. These future costs are dependent upon many factors and are difficult to anticipate, however, these costs may be substantial.

Legal Proceedings

In the normal course of business, to facilitate transactions in services and products, the Company indemnifies certain parties. The Company has agreed to hold certain parties harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. Several of these agreements limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors, and its bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to its agents.

Furthermore, many of the Company’s agreements with its customers and partners require the Company to indemnify them for certain intellectual property infringement claims against them, which would increase costs as a result of defending such claims, and may require that we pay significant damages if there were an adverse ruling in any such claims. Customers and partners may discontinue the use of the Company’s services and technologies as a result of injunctions or otherwise, which could result in loss of revenues and adversely impact the business.

It is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no material indemnification claims that were probable or reasonably possible.

As of September 30, 2023, Rumble had received notification of several claims: (1) a lawsuit against the Company and one of its shareholders seeking a variety of relief including rescission of a share redemption sale agreement with the Company or damages alleged to be worth $419.0 million; (2) a patent infringement lawsuit against the Company and (3) a putative class action lawsuit alleging violations of the Video Privacy Protection Act in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida.

The Company is defending the claims and considers that the likelihood that it will be required to make a payment to plaintiffs to be remote.

Credit and Concentration Risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company is exposed to credit risk resulting from the possibility that a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument defaults on their financial obligations or if there is a concentration of transactions carried out with the same counterparty. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable.

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities are held in reputable banks in its country of domicile and management believes the risk of loss to be remote.

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by its customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not bear interest, and do not require collateral. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, one customer accounted for $5,751,157 or 32% of revenue (three months ended September 30, 2022 - $5,808,768 or 53%). For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, one customer accounted for $29,762,071 or 49% of revenue (nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $5,808,768 or 30%). As of September 30, 2023, one customer accounted for 36% of accounts receivable (December 31, 2022 - 66%), which has been collected in the month of October 2023.

The allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2023 was $nil (December 31, 2022 - $nil).

| 17. | Related Party Transactions

The Company’s related parties include directors, shareholders and key management.

Compensation to related parties totaled $3,251,238 and $9,535,624 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $1,443,254 and $2,438,843). Of such amounts, the Company awarded share-based compensation to related parties amounting to $1,980,511 and $5,802,382 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $174,950 and $180,852).

The Company incurred related party expenses for personnel services of $709,101 and $1,978,136 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 respectively (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $422,598 and $1,181,965). As of September 30, 2023, accounts payable for personnel services was $211,844 (December 31, 2022 - $174,351).

As of October 25, 2021, the Company was owed $390,000 from related parties pursuant to a loan carrying an interest rate of 0.19% per annum. The loan was originally incurred in connection with the purchase of a Company subsidiary’s domain name. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, the outstanding loan was repaid in full through the holdback and surrender of 26,731 shares of Class A Common Stock which the borrower was otherwise entitled to receive.

There were no other related party transactions during these periods.

On October 3, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the equity of North River Project Inc. (“North River”), an entity that holds intellectual property in exchange for a cash payment of C$10,000,000 Canadian Dollars upon closing and future contingent cash payments up to an amount of C$10,000,000 Canadian Dollars. On the date of acquisition, C$10,000,000 Canadian Dollars was equivalent to approximately $7,293,000 United States Dollars based on the exchange rate of such date of C$1.3711: U.S.$1.00. The amount of the Company’s contingent payment obligation may change over time when expressed in United States Dollars due to fluctuations in the Canadian Dollar-United States Dollar exchange rate.

The Company’s management reviewed all material events through November 13, 2023, and there were no material subsequent events other than those disclosed above.

VI to Rumble Inc. and Legacy Rumble changed its name from Rumble Inc. to Rumble Canada Inc. Refer to Note 2, Significant Events and Transactions, to the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 (“Annual Financial Statements”)

On May 15, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Callin Corp. (“Callin”), a podcasting and live streaming platform. Refer to Note 3, Business Combinations, to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

On October 3, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of North River Project Inc. (“North River”), an entity that holds intellectual property. Refer to Note 20, Subsequent Events, to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Revenues

We generate revenues primarily from advertising and licensing fees. The revenues are generated by delivering content either via our own or third-party platforms. As with the past two years, our focus remains on growing users and usage consumption — and not maximizing revenue — while we continue to experiment with various levers to grow revenue.

Advertising fees are generated by delivering both display advertisements and cost-per-message-read advertisements. Display advertisements are placed on Rumble and third-party publisher websites or mobile applications. Customers pay for advertisements either directly or through relationships with advertising agencies or resellers, based on the number of impressions delivered or the number of actions such as clicks, or purchases taken, by our users. We recognize revenue from display advertisements when a user engages with the advertisement, through an impression, click, or purchase. For cost-per-message-read advertising, customers pay to have their products or services promoted by a content creator and advertising revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is fulfilled, usually when the message is read.

26

Licensing fees are charged on a per video or on a flat-fee per month basis. Licensing fee revenue is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied in line with the nature of the intellectual property being licensed.

Other revenues include fees earned from tipping features within the Company’s video platform as well as certain cloud, subscription, platform hosting and professional services. Fees from tipping features are recognized at a point in time when a user tips on the platform. Both cloud and subscription services are recognized over time for the duration of the contract. Revenues related to platform hosting are recognized over time as the Company provides access to the platform. Professional service revenues have stand-alone functionality to the customer and are recognized at a point in time as services are provided or earned.

Refer to Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Annual Financial Statements.

Expenses

Expenses primarily include cost of services, general and administrative, research and development, sales and marketing, acquisition-related transaction costs, amortization and depreciation, and changes in fair value of contingent consideration. The most significant component of our expenses on an ongoing basis are programming and content, service provider costs, and staffing-related costs.

We expect to continue to invest substantial resources to support our growth and anticipate that each of the following categories of expenses will increase in absolute dollar amounts for the foreseeable future.

Cost of Services

Cost of services consists of costs related to obtaining, supporting and hosting the Company’s product offerings. These costs primarily include:

| ● | Programming and content costs related to payments to content providers from whom video and other content are licensed. These costs are paid to these providers based on revenues generated, or in fixed amounts. In certain circumstances, we incur additional costs related to incentivizing top content creators to promote and join our platform.

| ● | Other cost of services include third-party service provider costs such as data center and networking, staffing costs directly related to professional services fees, and costs paid to publishers.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses which include bonuses and share-based compensation for our executives and other administrative employees. It also includes legal and professional fees, business insurance costs, operating lease costs and other costs. As a public company, we expect to continue to incur material costs related to compliance with applicable laws and regulations including audit and accounting fees, legal, insurance, investor relations and other costs.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses which include bonuses and share-based compensation for our employees on our engineering and development teams. It also includes consultant fees related to our development activities to originate, develop and enhance our platforms.

27

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses which include bonuses and share-based compensation for our employees associated with our sales and marketing functions. It also includes consultant fees and direct marketing costs related to the promotion of our platforms/solutions. Sales and marketing expenses are expected to increase over time as we promote our platform, increase marketing activities, grow domestic and international operations, and continues to build brand awareness.

Acquisition-related Transaction Costs

Acquisition-related transaction costs consist of transaction expenses related to the Business Combination and other acquisitions.

Amortization and Depreciation

Amortization and depreciation represent the recognition of costs of assets used in operations, including intangible assets, and property and equipment, over their estimated service lives.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

Certain contingent consideration associated with the Callin acquisition do not meet the criteria for equity classification, and must be recorded as liabilities in accordance with guidance contained in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). Because the contingent consideration meets the definition of a liability under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), it is measured at fair value at inception and each reporting date in accordance with the guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), with any subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations in the period of change.

Non-Operating Income and Other Items

Interest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities. We invest in highly liquid securities such as money market funds, treasury bills and term deposits.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) consists of miscellaneous income earned outside of normal company revenue generated through advertising, licensing and other revenue including fees earned from tipping features, cloud, subscription, platform hosting and professional services.

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability

We account for our outstanding warrants in accordance with guidance contained in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), under which the warrants issued in connection with the public offerings, private placements, and forward purchase contract (“FPA”) entered into with CFAC Holdings VI, LLC (such contract, the “FPA”) do not meet the criteria for equity classification, and must be recorded as liabilities. As these warrants meet the definition of a liability under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), they are measured at fair value at inception and each reporting date in accordance with the guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), with any subsequent changes in fair value recognized in the statement of operations in the period of change.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense consists of changes in our deferred tax assets and current income taxes.

28

Key Business Metrics

To analyze our business performance, determine financial forecasts and help develop long-term strategic plans, we review the key business metrics described below.

Monthly Active Users (“MAUs”)

We use MAUs as a measure of audience engagement to help us understand the volume of users engaged with our content on a monthly basis. MAUs represent the total web, mobile app, and connected TV users of Rumble for each month, which allows us to measure our total user base calculated from data provided by Google, a third-party analytics provider. Google defines “active users” as the “[n]umber of distinct users who visited your website or application.”1 We have used the Google analytics systems since we first began publicly reporting MAU statistics, and the resulting data have not been independently verified.

As of July 1, 2023, Universal Analytics (“UA”), Google’s analytics platform on which we historically relied for calculating MAUs using company-set parameters, was phased out by Google and ceased processing data. At that time, Google Analytics 4 (“GA4”) succeeded UA as Google’s next-generation analytics platform, which we used to determine MAUs for the third quarter of 2023 and which we expect to continue to use to determine MAUs in future periods. Although Google has disclosed certain information regarding the transition to GA4,2 Google does not currently make available sufficient information relating to its new GA4 algorithm for us to determine the full effect of the switch from UA to GA4 on our reported MAUs. Because Google has publicly stated that metrics in UA “may be more or less similar” to metrics in GA4, and “[i]t is not unusual for there to be apparent discrepancies” between the two systems,3 we are unable to determine whether the transition from UA to GA4 has a positive or negative effect, or the magnitude of such effect, if any, on our reported MAUs. It is therefore possible that MAUs that we reported based on the UA methodology (“MAUs (UA)”) for periods prior to July 1, 2023, cannot be meaningfully compared to MAUs based on the GA4 methodology (“MAUs (GA4)”) in subsequent periods.

MAUs (GA4) represent the total web, mobile app, and connected TV users of Rumble for each month,4 which allows us to measure our total user base calculated from data provided by Google.5 Connected TV users were not counted within MAUs within MAUs (UA) for periods prior to July 1, 2023, and we believe the number of such users was immaterial in those prior periods. We also believe that fewer than 1 million MAUs in the current period are from connected TV, making them similarly immaterial. Google’s parameters for measuring “active users” appear to exclude many, but not all, users who access content on Rumble through “embedded” videos on domains other than rumble.com, and we are unable to determine the exact number of users who access “embedded” content within our total number of MAUs. In addition, MAUs (GA4) may rely on statistical sampling and may be based on estimates of data that Google is missing “due to factors such as cookie consent.”6

As with our earlier MAU reporting, there is a potential for minor overlap in the resulting data due to users who access Rumble’s content through the web, our mobile apps, and connected TVs in a given measurement period; however, given that we believe this minor overlap to be immaterial, we do not separately track or report “unique users” as distinct from MAUs. MAUs do not include users of Locals. We also do not separately report the number of users who register for accounts in any given period, which is different from MAUs.

6 | According to the GA4 dashboard, “[a]s of August 26, 2023, Analytics is estimating data that’s missing due to factors such as cookie consent.”

29

Like many other major social media companies, we rely on significant paid advertising in order to attract users to our platform; however, we cannot be certain that all or substantially all activity that results from such advertising is genuine. Spam activity, including inauthentic and fraudulent user activity, if undetected, may contribute, from time to time, to some amount of overstatement of our performance indicators, including reporting of MAUs by Google. We continually seek to improve our ability to estimate the total number of spam-generated users, and we eliminate material activity that is substantially likely to be spam from the calculation of our MAUs. We will not, however, succeed in identifying and removing all spam.

MAUs (GA4) were 58 million on average in the third quarter of 2023.

Estimated Minutes Watched Per Month (“MWPM”)

We use estimated MWPM as a measure of audience engagement to help us understand the volume of users engaged with our content on a monthly basis and the intensity of users’ engagement with the platform. Estimated MWPM represents the monthly average of minutes watched per user within a quarterly period, which helps us measure user engagement. Estimated MWPM is calculated by converting actual bandwidth consumption into minutes watched, using our management’s best estimate of video resolution quality mix and various encoding parameters. We continually seek to improve our best estimates based on our observations of creator and user behavior on the Rumble platform, which changes based on the introduction of new product features, including livestreaming. We are currently limited, however, in our ability to collect data from certain aspects of our systems while we improve our measurement capabilities. These limits may result in errors that are difficult to quantify, especially as the proportion of livestreaming on the Rumble platform increases over time, and as we improve the quality of various video formats by increasing bit rates, until we are able to measure MWPM directly. Bandwidth consumption includes video traffic across the entire Rumble platform (website, apps, embedded video, connected TV, etc.), as well as what our management believes is a nominal amount of non-video traffic, and a nominal amount of traffic from customers hosted on Rumble’s infrastructure, and an unknown amount of consumption of Rumble videos outside of the Rumble video player. Starting in the second quarter of 2022 we began transitioning a portion of Locals’ bandwidth consumption to our infrastructure. While Locals’ bandwidth consumption currently represents an immaterial amount of consumption, we expect this figure to grow in the coming quarters.

Estimated MWPM was 10.7 billion on average in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 19% from the third quarter of 2022 and a decrease of 9% from the second quarter of 2023. The growth from the third quarter of 2022 is attributable to: our growing pool of content creators; our value proposition as competing platforms continue to censor and cancel the voices of creators; and our new platform features. We believe the decline from the second quarter of 2023 is due to several factors, including: many popular content creators taking time off during the summer; users consuming less content when popular content creators are inactive; and a portion of our bandwidth consumption moving from third-party service providers’ content delivery networks (“CDNs”) to our own proprietary CDN in the second half of the quarter. Based on preliminary testing, our own CDN indicates less bandwidth consumption than our service providers’ CDN for comparable user activity. Because we calculate estimated MWPM by converting bandwidth consumption into minutes watched, consumption measured through our own CDN yields a lower estimated MWPM, than when measured through our service providers’ CDNs. Because of the estimated nature of MWPM based on bandwidth consumption, we are currently developing tools to measure MWPM directly through users’ viewing time. To the extent we are able to successfully develop and implement this capability, we expect to begin reporting directly-measured MWPM rather than an estimate based on bandwidth consumption.

30

Hours of Uploaded Video Per Day

We use the amount of hours of uploaded video per day as a measure of content creation to help us understand the volume of content being created and uploaded to us on a daily basis.

Hours of uploaded video per day were 15,700 on average in the third quarter of 2023, representing an increase of 78% from the third quarter of 2022 and a 19% increase from the second quarter of 2023. We continue to see hours of uploaded video per day grow due to our expanding pool of content creators and increased user watch time as a result of livestreaming and a continued improvement of user experience.

We regularly review, have adjusted in the past, and may in the future adjust our processes for calculating our key business metrics to improve their accuracy, including through the application of new data or technologies or product changes that may allow us to identify previously undetected spam activity. As a result of such adjustments, our key business metrics may not be comparable period-over-period.

The increase in advertising revenue was driven by an increase in consumption as well as the introduction of new advertising solutions for creators, publishers and advertisers, including host read advertising and our online advertising management exchange (“Rumble Advertising Center” or “RAC”), both of which we started to build and test in the second half of 2022. The increase in licensing and other revenue was driven by subscriptions as well as licensing creator content, tipping, cloud and platform hosting fees.

32

Cost of Services

Cost of services increased by $27.5 million to $39.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to an increase in programming and content costs of $26.1 million, hosting expenses of $0.7 million, and other service costs of $0.7 million.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expenses increased by $6.8 million to $9.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to an increase in payroll and related expenses of $2.9 million, share-based compensation of $1.1 million related to the recognition of rights to contingent consideration in connection with the Callin acquisition, as well as other administrative expenses of $2.8 million, most of which are public company-related, including accounting, legal, investor relations, insurance and other administrative services.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expenses increased by $3.4 million to $5.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to a $3.0 million increase in payroll and related expenses, as well as a $0.4 million increase in costs related to computer software and hardware, and other administrative expenses.

Sales and Marketing Expense

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $1.7 million to $3.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

Change in fair value of contingent consideration increased by $1.3 million resulting in a gain of $1.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase relates to contingently issuable Class A common stock in connection with the Callin acquisition. As these warrants meet the classification of a financial liability in accordance with ASC 815-40, the related warrant liability is measured at its fair value, determined in accordance with ASC 820, at each reporting period. The fair value of this contingent consideration was measured using the fair value of the expected number of shares that to be issued and Company’s share price (Level 3 fair value hierarchy input). Refer to Note 3, Business Combination, of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

33

Interest Income

Interest income increased by $3.4 million to $3.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to carrying a higher balance in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as a result of the Business Combination. The funds were invested in money market funds, treasury bills, and term deposits.

The increase was due to an increase in payroll and related expenses of $9.2 million, share-based compensation of $1.6 million related to the recognition of rights to contingent consideration in connection with the Callin acquisition, as well as a $10.5 million increase in other administrative expenses, most of which are public company-related including accounting, legal, investor relations, insurance and other administrative services.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expenses increased by $8.4 million to $12.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to a $6.9 million increase in payroll and related expenses, as well as a $1.5 million increase in costs related to computer software, hardware and other administrative expenses.

Sales and Marketing Expense

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $6.8 million to $10.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to a $2.0 million increase in staffing-related and consulting service costs, as well as a $4.8 million increase in other marketing and public relations activities.

Acquisition-related transaction costs

Acquisition-related transaction costs decreased by $0.2 million to $1.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Acquisition-related transaction costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 consisted of $1.2 million related to the acquisitions in 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, acquisition-related transaction costs consisted of $1.4 million, which included legal and other professional fees related to the Business Combination.

Amortization and Depreciation

Amortization and depreciation increased by $2.2 million to $3.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as we continue to build out our infrastructure.

35

Interest Income

Interest income increased by $10.3 million to $10.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was due to carrying a higher balance in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as a result of the Business Combination. The funds were invested in money market funds, treasury bills, and term deposits.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income increased by $0.1 million to $0.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability

Change in fair value of warrant liability decreased by $5.1 million resulting in a loss of $0.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease relates to the issuance of 8,050,000 warrants in connection with the public offerings, private placements, and FPA. As these warrants meet the classification of a financial liability in accordance with ASC 815-40, the related warrant liability is measured at its fair value, determined in accordance with ASC 820, at each reporting period. The fair value of this warrant liability was measured using the fair value of the Company’s warrants listed on the Nasdaq (Level 1 fair value hierarchy input). Refer to Note 2, Significant Events and Transactions, of the Annual Financial Statements.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense increased by $32.6 thousand to $32.6 thousand in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically financed operations primarily through cash generated from operating activities and most recently through proceeds from financing. The primary short-term requirements for liquidity and capital are to fund general working capital and capital expenditures.

As of September 30, 2023 our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balance was $267.0 million. Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities consist of cash on deposit with banks and amounts held in money market funds, treasury bills, and term deposits.

As we have consistently stated, we intend to use a substantial portion of funds that we have raised to acquire content by providing economic incentives to a small number of content creators, including sports leagues. This content acquisition strategy will allow us to enter key content verticals and secure top content creators in those verticals before we have full monetization capabilities in place. Our present focus is to grow users and usage consumption and experiment with monetization levers, which may not maximize profitability in the immediate term, but which we believe positions our business for the long term. As a result, we expect this strategy will require us to consume a significant portion of our capital raised. As of September 30, 2023, we had entered into programming and content agreements with a minimum contractual cash commitment of $123 million. A significant amount of these minimum contractual cash commitments will be paid over 12 to 48 months, commencing in 2023. In addition to the minimum contractual cash commitments, we have programming and content agreements that have variable cost arrangements. These future costs are dependent upon many factors and are difficult to anticipate, however, these costs may be substantial.

The following table presents a summary of the condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

|  | Nine months ended September 30, |  |  |  |
Net cash provided by (used in): |  | 2023 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | Variance ($) |

Investing activities |  |  | (10,953,421 | ) |  |  | (5,830,881 | ) |  |  | (5,122,540 | )
Financing activities |  |  | (503,136 | ) |  |  | 333,017,493 |  |  |  | (333,520,629 | )
Exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 1,882 |  |  |  | 45,707 |  |  |  | (43,825 | )
Decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the period |  |  | (71,285,407 | ) |  |  | 309,832,675 |  |  |  | (381,118,082 | )
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period |  |  | 337,169,279 |  |  |  | 46,847,375 |  |  |  | 290,321,904 |
Cash and cash equivalents, end of period |  | $ | 265,883,872 |  |  | $ | 356,680,050 |  |  | $ | (90,796,178 | )

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily consisted of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including a $2.4 million gain on change in fair value of warrants and contingent consideration, offset by a $10.5 million change in share-based compensation, $3.1 million change in amortization and depreciation as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities. The increase in net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was mostly due to an increase in expenses partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 consisted of $11.9 million in purchases of property, equipment intangible assets, offset by $1.0 million in cash acquired in connection with the Callin acquisition. The increase in net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was mostly due to an increase in purchases of property, equipment, and intangible assets, as well as cash acquired in connection with the Callin acquisition.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, mainly consisted of $0.5 million related to taxes paid from net share settlement of share-based compensation as well as $40 thousand of share issuance cost related to the acquisition of Callin. The increase in net cash used in financing activities was mainly due to the taxes paid from net share settlement of share-based compensation in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the receipt of cash proceeds, net of transactions costs, from the Business Combination in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Management Estimates

We prepare our condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of condensed consolidated interim financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving our management’s judgments and estimates. Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations because they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

We believe that the accounting policies described below involve a significant degree of judgment and complexity. Accordingly, we believe that these are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. For further information, see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report or Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Annual Financial Statements.

Revenues

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. To determine revenue recognition for contractual arrangements that we determine are within the scope of ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (1) identify each contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the relevant performance obligation is satisfied. We only apply the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration to which we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services we provide to the customer.

We generate revenues primarily from advertising and licensing fees. The revenues are generated by delivering content either via our own or third-party platforms.

Advertising fees are generated by delivering both display advertisements and cost-per-message-read advertisements. Display advertisements are placed on Rumble and third-party publisher websites or mobile applications. Customers pay for advertisements either directly or through their relationships with advertising agencies or resellers, based on the number of impressions delivered or the number of actions such as clicks, or purchases taken, by our users. We recognize revenue from display advertisements when a user engages with the advertisement, such as an impression, click, or purchase. For cost-per-message-read advertising, customers pay to have their products or services promoted by a content creator and advertising revenue is recognized when the performance obligation is fulfilled, usually when the message is read.

Licensing fees are charged on a per video or on a flat-fee per month basis. Licensing fee revenue is recognized as the related performance obligations are satisfied in line with the nature of the intellectual property being licensed.

Other revenues include fees earned from tipping features within our platform as well as certain cloud, subscription, platform hosting, and professional services. Fees from tipping features are recognized at a point in time when a user tips on the platform. Both cloud and subscription services are recognized over time for the duration of the contract. Revenues related to platform hosting are recognized over time as we provides access to our platform. Professional service revenues have stand-alone functionality to the customer and are recognized at a point in time as services are provided or earned.

38

Share-Based Compensation Expenses

Stock Options

We estimate the fair value of stock options granted to employees, advisory board members, directors, officers, and consultants with either a service or performance condition using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“BSM”). For stock options with only a service condition, the grant date fair value of stock options is recognized as share-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Forfeitures are accounted for when they occur. For stock options with a performance condition, we assess the likelihood of the performance condition underlying an award being met, and recognizes a share-based compensation expense associated with that award only if it is probable the performance condition will be met.

In some circumstances, we estimate the fair value of stock options granted to consultants with a market condition using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology that includes simulating the stock price using a risk-neutral Geometric Brownian Motion-based pricing model. We recognize the grant date fair value of stock options as share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period.

BSM considers several variables and assumptions in estimating the fair value of stock-based awards. These variables include:

Fair Value of Common Stock: Because Legacy Rumble Class A common shares (also referred to as “Rumble’s common stock” below) were not publicly traded prior to the closing of the Business Combination, we estimated the fair value of our common stock in 2019, 2020 and 2021 using Level 3 inputs as defined in the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. Our board of directors considers several objective and subjective factors to determine the fair value of our common stock as discussed in “Common Stock Valuations” below. Fair value of Rumble’s Class A common shares following the closing of the Business Combination is determined based on the Nasdaq closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock as of the date of measurement.

Expected Term: The expected term represents the period that our stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined to be the contractual term of the options.

Expected Volatility: Because we have only a limited trading history of our common stock, the expected volatility was derived from the average historical stock volatilities of several public companies within our industry that we consider to be comparable to our business over a period equivalent to the expected term of the stock option grants.

Risk-Free Interest Rate: The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with the remaining term equivalent to the expected term.

Expected Dividend: We have not paid any dividends in our history and do not expect to pay any dividends over the life of the options and, therefore, have estimated the dividend yield to be zero.

Common Stock Valuations

Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, given the absence of a public trading market for our common stock and in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Accounting and Valuation Guide, Valuation of Privately Held Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation, our board of directors determined the best estimate of fair value of our common stock exercising reasonable judgment and considering numerous objective and subjective factors. These factors included:

| ● | the valuation at which we conducted our most recent rounds of equity financing;

| ● | contemporaneous third-party valuations of our common stock;

| ● | the transaction prices at which we or other holders sold our common stock to outside investors in arms-length transactions;

39

| ● | our financial condition, results of operations and capital resources;

| ● | the industry outlook;

| ● | consideration that the options awarded reflected rights in illiquid securities in the private company;

| ● | the valuation of comparable companies;

| ● | the lack of marketability of our common stock;

| ● | the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an initial public offering or a sale of us given prevailing market conditions;

| ● | the history and nature of our business, industry trends and the competitive environment; and

| ● | the general economic outlook, including with respect to economic growth, inflation, unemployment, the interest rate environment and global economic trends.

Our board of directors determined the fair value of our common stock by first determining the enterprise value of our business, and then using the enterprise value to derive the per share value of our common stock.

The enterprise value of our business was estimated by considering several factors, including estimates using the market approach. The market approach was estimated based on the projected value of comparable public companies in a similar line of business that are publicly traded. In addition to the market approach described above, our board of directors factored in recent arms-length transactions such as the closest round of equity financing preceding the date of valuation.

After determining our enterprise value, an allocation of the enterprise value is assigned to each of our various classes of shares with consideration of the different rights associated with each share class, including liquidation preferences, seniority of shares, and conversion rights. The value attributed to common shares through this allocation determines the per share value of our common stock. The BSM implementation of the option pricing method treats the rights of holders of various classes of securities (common shares, preferred shares, warrants, and options) as call options on any value of the Company above a series of break points. The values of the break points were calculated by reviewing the liquidation preferences of preferred shares (including seniority of any series of preferred shares), the participation rights of preferred shares (including any caps on such participation), and the strike prices of warrants and options.

Application of these approaches involves the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are highly complex and subjective, such as those regarding discount rates, market multiples, the selection of comparable companies and the probability of possible future events. Changes in any or all of these estimates and assumptions, or the relationships between those assumptions, impact our valuations as of each valuation date and may have a material impact on the valuation of our common stock.

For valuations after the completion of the Business Combination, our board of directors determines the fair value of each share of underlying Class A common stock based on the closing price of Class A common stock as reported on the date of grant.

40

Warrants

Measurement of warrants issued to purchase shares of Class A common stock post-closing of the Business Combination is based on the Nasdaq closing price of our warrants as of the date of measurement. Warrants issued to purchase common stock of Legacy Rumble prior to the closing of the Business Combination were freestanding financial instruments classified as equity, and measured using the BSM option pricing model, which included assumptions related to the inputs of exercise price, fair value of the underlying common stock, risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected volatility, and expected dividend yield, which were all determined in the same manner as our stock options detailed in the above “Stock Based Compensation Expenses” section. As the outstanding warrants (prior to the closing of the Business Combination) were also subject to a performance condition, management assessed the probability of the performance condition being met at each reporting date. These Legacy Rumble warrants were exchanged for 14,153,048 shares of our Class A Common Stock as part of the Business Combination, for a par value of $731,281.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

JOBS Act Accounting Election

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We intend to elect to adopt new or revised accounting standards under private company adoption timelines. Accordingly, the timing of our adoption of new or revised accounting standards will not be the same as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies or that have opted out of using such extended transition period and our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain market risks as part of our ongoing business operations.

Credit and Concentration Risk

We are exposed to credit risk on our cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and accounts receivable. We place cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities with financial institutions with high credit standing, and we place excess cash in money market funds, treasury bills, and deposits. We are exposed to credit risk on our accounts receivable in the event of default by a customer. We bill our customers under customary payment terms and review customers for their creditworthiness. The term between invoicing and payment due date is not significant. A meaningful portion of our revenue is attributable to service agreements with one customer. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, one customer accounted for $5.8 million and $29.8 million or 32% and 49% of our revenue, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, one customer accounted for $5.8 million and $5.8 million or 53% and 30% of our revenue, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 one customer accounted for 36% of our accounts receivable (December 31, 2022 - 66%), which has been collected in the month of October 2023.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk on our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. As of September 30, 2023, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $267.0 million, consisting of investments in money market funds, treasury bills, and term deposits for which the fair market value would be affected by changes in the general level of interest rates. However, due to the short-term maturities and the low-risk profile of our investments, an immediate 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities.

41

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this review and evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

42

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are, and from time to time may become, involved in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business activities, such as copyright infringement and tort claims arising from user-uploaded content, patent infringement claims, breach of contract claims, government demands, putative class actions based upon consumer protection or privacy laws and other matters. The amounts that may be recovered in such matters may be subject to insurance coverage.

On January 27, 2022, we received notification of a lawsuit filed by Kosmayer Investment Inc. (“KII”) against Rumble and Mr. Pavlovski in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, alleging fraudulent misrepresentation in connection with KII’s decision to redeem its shares of Rumble in August 2020. On June 3, 2022, we served our statement of defence, and KII filed a reply pleading on June 15, 2022. The case remains in discovery. KII is seeking rescission of such redemption such that, following such rescission, KII would own 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rumble or, in the alternative, damages for the lost value of the redeemed shares, which KII has alleged to be worth $419.0 million (based on the value ascribed to the shares of Rumble in the Business Combination), together with other damages including punitive damages and costs. The case remains in discovery. Although we believe that the allegations are meritless and intend to vigorously defend against them, the result or impact of such claim is uncertain, and could result in, among other things, damages, and/or awards of attorneys’ fees or expenses.

In January 2021, we filed an antitrust lawsuit against Google in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging that Google unlawfully gives an advantage to its YouTube platform over Rumble in search engine results and in the mobile phone market. In June 2021, Google filed a partial motion to dismiss the lawsuit and a motion to strike; in July 2022, the court denied Google’s motion. The case is currently in discovery, with trial scheduled for April 14, 2025.

In August 2022, we received notification of a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida by Interactive Content Engines LLC (“ICE”), a non-practicing entity. On October 5, 2022, we filed our answer to ICE’s complaint and counterclaims asserting non-infringement and invalidity of the asserted patents. The court held a claim construction hearing for May 31, 2023, and we filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings on July 7, 2023. Although we believe that the allegations of infringement are meritless and intend to vigorously defend against them, the result or impact of such lawsuit is uncertain, and could result in, among other things, damages and/or awards of attorneys’ fees or expenses.

In October 2022, we received notification of a putative class action lawsuit alleging violations of the Video Privacy Protection Act in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida. Our motion for summary judgment on the issue of venue is currently pending before the court. Although we believe that the allegations are meritless and intend to vigorously defend against them, the result or impact of the lawsuit is uncertain, and could result in, among other things, damages and/or awards of attorneys’ fees or expenses.

Along with co-plaintiff Eugene Volokh, on December 1, 2022, we filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York to block the enforcement of New York State’s Social Media Law. On February 14, 2023, the court granted our motion for a preliminary injunction, halting enforcement of the law; on June 20, 2023, the New York Attorney General appealed the district court’s injunction. An oral argument date for the appeal has not yet been set.

43

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2023. You should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and cautionary statements described therein, together with the other disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other public filings with the SEC. Any such risks and uncertainties, as well as risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial, may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We rely on data from third parties to calculate certain of our performance metrics. Real or perceived inaccuracies in such metrics may harm our reputation and negatively affect our business.

We track certain performance metrics, such as our MAUs, based on data from third parties. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable calculations for the applicable periods of measurement, our third-party providers periodically encounter difficulties in providing accurate data for such metrics as a result of a variety of factors, including human and software errors. We expect these challenges may continue to occur, and potentially to increase as our engagement grows. There are also inherent challenges in measuring usage across our large user base. For example, as further described in our “Key Business Metrics” section, there is a potential for minor overlap in our usage data due to users who access Rumble’s content through the web, our mobile apps, and connected TVs in a given measurement period.

Third parties on which we rely for certain of our key metrics may make changes or improvements to their tools and methodologies. For example, starting July 1, 2023, Universal Analytics (UA), Google’s analytics platform on which we historically relied for calculating MAUs using company-set parameters, was phased out by Google and ceased processing data. At that time, Google Analytics 4 (GA4) succeeded UA as Google’s next-generation analytics platform, which we used to determine MAUs for the third quarter of 2023 and which we expect to continue to use to determine MAUs in future periods. Google does not currently make available sufficient information relating to its new GA4 algorithm for us to determine the full effect of the switch from UA to GA4 on our reported MAUs. Likewise, Google’s parameters for measuring “active users” appear to exclude many, but not all, users who access content on Rumble through “embedded” videos on domains other than rumble.com, and we are unable to determine the exact number of users who access “embedded” content within our total number of MAUs. In addition, MAUs (GA4) may rely on statistical sampling and may be based on estimates of data that Google is missing due to factors such as cookie consent. We are also unable to determine whether the transition from UA to GA4 has a positive or negative effect, or the magnitude of such effect, if any, on our reported MAUs. It is therefore possible that MAU figures that we reported for periods prior to July 1, 2023 cannot be meaningfully compared to our MAUs figures for subsequent periods.

In addition, we rely on third-party service providers to measure our bandwidth consumption, which currently forms the basis for our estimated MWPM. Starting in the second half of the third quarter of 2023, we began moving from third-party service providers’ content delivery networks (“CDNs”) to our own proprietary CDN. Based on preliminary testing, our own CDN indicates less bandwidth consumption than our service providers’ CDN for comparable user activity. Because we calculate estimated MWPM by converting bandwidth consumption into minutes watched, consumption measured through our own CDN yields a lower estimated MWPM, than when measured through our service providers’ CDNs. Because of the estimated nature of MWPM based on bandwidth consumption, we are currently developing tools to measure MWPM directly through users’ viewing time. To the extent we are able to successfully develop and implement this capability, we expect to begin reporting directly-measured MWPM rather than an estimate based on bandwidth consumption. When we make this switch, the directly-measured MWPM will likely be substantially different from the estimated MWPM we have reported in prior quarters due to the exclusion of certain categories of played video from directly measured MWPM.

Changes to these tools and methodologies could cause inconsistency between current data and previously reported data, which could raise questions about the usefulness of our reported metrics or make it more difficult for investors to accurately assess our performance over time. If our users, advertisers, partners and stockholders do not perceive our metrics to be accurate representations, or if we discover material inaccuracies in our metrics, our reputation may be damaged, resulting in material harm to our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

44

Our recently launched Cloud business may not achieve success, and, as a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our recent expansion into the cloud service business may not be successful and involves various risks relating to this business that may negatively affect our operating results, including:

| ● | our ability to derive an optimal pricing model that enables us to derive sufficient value from our customers while attracting new customers and retaining existing customers;

| ● | our reliance on third-party providers for data center space and colocation services and on public cloud providers to prevent service disruptions;

| ● | the intense competition that we face, including from companies with longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than we have;

| ● | our ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel, particularly software and cloud engineers and sales and customer experience personnel;

| ● | the possibility that we may be unable to maintain and improve our platform performance, especially during peak usage times;

| ● | the possibility that we may underestimate or overestimate our data center capacity requirements and our capital expenditures on data centers, servers and equipment;

| ● | our exposure to possible liability and harm to our reputation if the security of our cloud is breached, resulting in the exposure of our customers’ data, including personal information, to cyber criminals and other nefarious actors;

| ● | the possibility that we may be unable to maintain the compatibility of our platform with third-party applications that our customers use in their businesses; and

| ● | our ability to respond to rapid technological changes with new solutions and services offerings.

The occurrence of any of these factors, or our inability to successfully mitigate the results of the associated impact, could also damage our reputation, negatively impact our relationship with our customers, and otherwise materially harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We have offered and intend to continue to offer incentives, including economic incentives, to content creators to join our platform, and these arrangements often involve fixed payment obligations that are not contingent on actual revenue or performance metrics generated by the applicable content creator but rather are typically based on our modeled financial projections for that creator, which if not satisfied may adversely impact our financial performance, results of operations and liquidity.

Our user base and user engagement growth are directly driven by the content available on our platform. As part of our previously announced strategy, we intend to use a substantial portion of funds that we have raised to acquire content by providing economic incentives, including minimum guaranteed earnings, to a limited number of content creators, including sports leagues. This content acquisition strategy is intended to allow us to enter key content verticals and secure top content creators in those verticals before we have full monetization capabilities in place. Our present focus is to grow users and usage consumption and experiment with monetization levers, which may not maximize profitability in the immediate term, but which we believe positions our business for the long term. As of September 30, 2023, we had entered into programming and content agreements with a minimum contractual cash commitment of $128 million. In addition to the minimum contractual cash commitments, we have programming and content agreements that have variable cost arrangements. These future costs are dependent upon many factors and are difficult to anticipate, however, these costs may be substantial. To the extent our revenue and/or user growth assumptions associated with any such creator do not meet our expectations, our financial performance, results of operations and liquidity may be negative impacted, since a failure to achieve these expectations is not expected to reduce our fixed payment obligations to any such creator.

Negative media campaigns may adversely impact our financial performance, results of operations, and relationships with our business partners, including content creators and advertisers.

Our commitment to diversity of opinion and refusal to censor content on our platforms has in the past resulted and is likely to continue to result in malicious media campaigns directed against us. For example, our recent refusal to the request by a member of the UK Parliament to demonetize the channel of a specific content creator has led us to be subjected to negative publicity by certain news organizations that are considered to be reputable by some segments of the population. Such a campaign may have been intended to interfere with our relationships with streaming partners and advertisers.

We expect that the proliferation of alternative media, including on our platform, will continue to be viewed as a growing competitive threat by established news organizations, and may result in an escalation, both in frequency and intensity, of negative publicity campaigns against us and our creators. Such campaigns, even if groundless in nature, may result in negative public perception and damage to relationships with our business partners, including content creators and advertisers, which may negatively impact our operating results.

Risks Related to the Legal and Regulatory Environment in Which We Operate

We may become subject to newly enacted laws and regulations that restrict content on the internet.

The expansion of regulatory and censorship regimes by governments around the world is likely to limit the freedom of speech and artistic expression on the internet, which in turn may inhibit the growth of alternative and nontraditional platforms like Rumble relative to traditional media publishers and established technology platforms that feature stricter content moderation. For example, Canada’s Bill C-11, also known as the Online Streaming Act, grants Canadian regulatory authorities significantly increased regulatory powers over audiovisual content on the internet. While we do not yet meet the regulatory criteria to comply with C-11, our commitment to a free and open internet may result in governmental actions against our platform, costly and prolonged legal challenges, and the prohibition or suppression of our platform in certain jurisdictions or our voluntary withdrawal from such jurisdictions.

Several U.S. states have also enacted legislation that regulates online content. For example, New York State’s Social Media Law, which aims to impose regulations on social media companies, was recently enjoined by a court, but is currently undergoing an appeal. In addition, the states of Utah and Arkansas have recently enacted legislation limiting the ability of minors to use online platforms without parental consent. These state laws are currently subject to legal challenges, and the Arkansas law has been enjoined. Our business, financial performance and results of operations could be negatively affected by the impact of these laws and the costs of complying with them.

Paid endorsements by our content creators may expose us to regulatory risk, liability, and compliance costs, and, as a result, may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our content creators may engage in paid promotions of products and services in regulated industries, such as alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, cannabidiols (CBD), and online gambling, including sports wagering and online casino games. In some cases, we may receive a percentage of the revenue generated by such paid promotions. While these promotions are not endorsements by Rumble of the underlying products or services by Rumble and we require content creators to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, we may be found liable pursuant to existing or newly created rules and regulations by international, federal, and state regulatory authorities, such as the United States Federal Trade Commission. We may also expend significant resources on compliance with such regulations. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected by the impact of these regulations. In addition, such paid promotions may alienate segments of our audience, which could cause our traffic and user engagement to fall.
