Montreal, March 23, 2020 – Stingray Group Inc (TSX: RAY.A; RAY.B) (“Stingray”), a leading music, media and technology company, today announced that it has received approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) to amend its normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) in order to increase the maximum number of subordinate voting shares and variable subordinate voting shares (collectively, “Subordinate Shares”) that it intends to repurchase for cancellation during the twelve month period ending August 15, 2020 from 2,924,220 Subordinate Shares to 4,903,887 Subordinate Shares, representing approximately 10% of the public float of Subordinate Voting Shares as at August 7, 2019. All other terms and conditions of the NCIB remain unchanged.

The Subordinate Shares will be purchased on behalf of Stingray by a registered broker through the facilities of the TSX or alternative Canadian trading systems. The price paid for the Subordinate Shares will be the market price at the time of the acquisition, and the number of Subordinate Shares purchased and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by Stingray. All shares repurchased under the NCIB will be cancelled.

As of March 20, 2020, Stingray had repurchased a total of 2,896,995 Subordinate Shares pursuant to the NCIB at a weighted average price of $6.01 per share. As of the close of business on March 20, 2020, there were an aggregate of 52,687,454 Subordinate Shares issued and outstanding.

Stingray also announces that it intends to amend its previously-announced automatic securities purchase plan entered into with a designated broker, acting as Stingray’s agent for the NCIB, in order to reflect the increase in the maximum number of Subordinate Shares that Stingray may repurchase under the NCIB.
