YOOMA ANNOUNCES CHANGE OF AUDITOR

Toronto, Ontario, Dec. 09, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yooma Wellness Inc. (“Yooma” or the "Company") (CSE: YOOM) (AQSE: YOOM) today announced that it has changed its auditors from RSM Canada LLP (“Former Auditor”) to BF Borgers CPA PC (“Successor Auditor”).

The Former Auditor resigned as auditor of the Corporation earlier today, citing the reduced significance of the Corporation’s North American operations relative to its operations in Japan, the UK and Europe, and the board of directors of the Company has appointed the Successor Auditor as the Company’s auditor effective as of December 9, 2022. There were no reservations or modified opinions in the Former Auditor's reports on the Company's financial statements during the period that the Former Auditor acted as the Company's auditor, and no reportable events, including disagreements, consultations or unresolved issues (as defined in National Instrument 51-102 – Continuous Disclosure Obligations ("NI 51-102")) during that same period.

In accordance with NI 51-102, a notice of change of auditor, together with the required letters from the Former Auditor and the Successor Auditor, have been reviewed by the board of directors of the Company and filed on SEDAR.
