CALGARY, ALBERTA — (Marketwire) — 08/16/12 — Zedi Inc. (the “Company” or “Zedi”) (TSX VENTURE: ZED) “For the first time in the Company–s history, Q2 revenues were higher than Q1 revenues, a clear sign that our diversification activities are having a positive impact on the historically cyclical nature of our business as well as providing a buffer against a challenging commodity pricing environment. Revenue growth occurred in all parts of our business with the exception of the products and services related to the Canadian natural gas market, which continued to struggle as a result of low natural gas pricing. Even more encouraging is that, although we showed strong growth in our revenue with a 30% increase over Q2 2011, our EBITDA grew by 43% for the same period reflecting the scalability of our operations. We have established a solid growth pattern, delivering record revenues for 10 successive quarters, in each of which quarterly EBITDA outperformed the same quarter on a year over year basis, ultimately rewarding our shareholders,” said Matthew Heffernan, Zedi President & CEO. The Q2 2012 financial statements and MD & A are filed on SEDAR and can be accessed at or on the Company–s website at .
