NEW MEDIA CAPITAL 2.0 INC. ANNOUNCES RTO TARGET COMPANY

EXPANDS OPERATIONS INTO AUSTRALIA and NEW ZEALAND

Edmonton, Alberta - November 3, 2025 - New Media Capital 2.0 Inc. (TSXV: NEME.P) ("New Media" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Asiatel Outsourcing Ltd. ("Asiatel"), the target company under the previously announced definitive share exchange agreement dated July 16, 2025 (see news releases of July 18, 2025 and September 22, 2025), has formalized a new strategic presence in Australia and New Zealand through a partnership with Custom Outsourcing Pty Ltd., an established business process outsourcing (BPO) provider based in Brisbane, Australia to oversee expansion of their services throughout the region.

Asiatel CEO Mr. Jasjit Anand (Andy) states, "Darren Smith, CEO of Custom Outsourcing Pty Ltd will represent Asiatel as its Regional Director for this region. Custom Outsourcing is a well-established niche BPO provider with deep market reach across Australia and New Zealand. This partnership represents a strong alignment of strengths, combining Asiatel's expanding service portfolio with their local market expertise and network. Together, we plan to accelerate growth in these regions by offering both traditional BPO solutions and the next generation of AI-driven services enabled through our partnership with file.AI. This marks the beginning of a new cycle of value creation as Asiatel deepens its presence in the Australia and New Zealand markets."

Australia is one of the largest markets for outsourcing to the Philippines, second only to the United States. Recent data confirms that the Philippines remains the leading offshore destination for Australian businesses seeking outsourcing partners in 2025, surpassing several other traditional providers.

The drivers of outsourcing from Australia/New Zealand to the Philippines include:

Cost savings with labour and operational costs in the Philippines significantly lower than comparable costs in Australia or New Zealand.

Strong English proficiency and cultural compatibility, which reduce communication issues and improve customer experience.

Mature vendor ecosystem in the Philippines with experience delivering not just voice-based customer care but increasingly complex, high-value services like digital, analytics, compliance, and back-office financial functions.

Darren Smith, CEO of Custom Outsourcing Pty Ltd reports, "Representing Asiatel in the Australia and New Zealand region allows us to accelerate client engagement and deliver greater value across local markets. Businesses here place a premium on trusted, regionally based providers, and our partnership brings that assurance. As part of our market introduction, Asiatel will participate in The Business Show Australia in Sydney on November 5-6, 2025, showcasing our next-generation outsourcing and AI-driven solutions to the local business community."

Asiatel's participation at The Business Show Australia represents an important step in strengthening its visibility and presence within the Australian and New Zealand business community. The event typically draws over 6,000 attendees including key decision-makers from tech, finance, professional services, and growth-stage enterprises across Australia and New Zealand. Asiatel will showcase its full suite of services-bookkeeping, sales support, customer engagement, IT and highlight its AI-enabled differentiation through file.AI. We expect to generate direct leads, initiate conversations with prospective clients, and strengthen our visibility in the region's BPO and innovation ecosystem.

New Media CEO, Mr. John Putters reports, "Asiatel continues to make strong progress expanding its global footprint, recently into North America with the launch of its Vancouver sales office, and now into Australia and New Zealand through this new regional partnership. These strategic moves underscore Asiatel's commitment to long-term growth and diversification, which we believe will translate into meaningful value creation for both existing shareholders and new investors participating in the concurrent capital raise."
