SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA -- (Marketwire) -- 11/19/12 -- This document corrects and replaces the press release that was issued on November 14, 2012 at 4:05 p.m. Eastern time. Bitzio's auditors identified a technical accounting correction in the application of the complex accounting rules for the company's convertible debenture issued in the third quarter of 2012. Therefore, the accounting change decreased the company's total liabilities by $125,000, increased stockholders' equity by $375,000 and increased non-cash interest expense by $250,000 in Q3 2012. The company apologizes for any inconvenience.

The corrected release reads:

Bitzio, Inc. (OTCQB: BTZO), a leading mobile media and app company, reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Q3 2012 Operational Highlights

--  Partnered with ROAR, a leading talent management company, to develop
    mobile apps for the world's most popular entertainment properties and
    talent, including actors, celebrities, musicians and athletes.
--  Secured a licensing partnership with The NFL Players, a subsidiary of
    the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA), to jointly
    develop and market a football trivia app for the more than 180 million
    fans of the NFL.
--  Bitzio's in-house software and animation studio advanced the development
    of "Pigskins Football Player Trivia Game," the first app to be produced
    from the new NFL Players partnership. The highly engaging app features
    the NFL's Top 50 players, along with in-app purchase options and social
    media features that enhance and expand game-play. The app is now set for
    release in December 2012, downloadable for free from Apple's App Store
    and the Android Marketplace.
--  Strengthened the executive management team with the addition of Peter
    Henricsson as the company's new president and CEO. Prior to Bitzio,
    Henricsson was the founder, chairman and CEO of CellPoint, a European
    leader in location-based technologies for mobile operators. Under
    Henricsson's leadership, CellPoint listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market and
    achieved a market cap of $1 billion.
--  Completed $598,000 convertible note financing to support the company's
    growth initiatives. An entity controlled by Henricsson contributed
    $300,000 to the raise.
--  Divested the company's non-core Info-Products division, including the
    app developer training series, and thereby eliminating $667,000 in
    liabilities. The divestiture has allowed Bitzio to focus on developing
    and monetizing mobile apps for the sports and entertainment marketplace.

Management Commentary

"During the third quarter of 2012, we greatly improved our operational platform and set course on our new business model designed to tap the tremendous opportunities for mobile apps in the sports and entertainment markets," said Peter Henricsson, president and CEO of Bitzio. "In fact, we achieved several milestones in the quarter, including divesting non-core assets, strengthening our balance sheet and executive team, and forming major strategic partnerships.

"Our new license agreement with The NFL Players demonstrated our ability to secure the media rights of large, existing fan bases, as well as establish a co-marketing and revenue-sharing partnership that requires no up-front fees. We have been working closely with The NFL Players to develop the first app, which is now set to launch next month. Given their marketing support, we are confident the trivia app will be well received and widely downloaded by the millions of NFL fans across the country.

"Our partnership with The NFL Players also serves an ideal showcase of Bitzio's capabilities, and represents a springboard toward greater opportunities across a number of verticals, including other sports communities, entertainment properties and major consumer brands. We are now well positioned to capitalize on the tremendous opportunities in delivering apps to the fan-based communities of some of world's largest sports clubs and entertainment brands. We plan to leverage our deep industry relationships and marketing partnerships to secure new licensing agreements during the coming months, and roll out a number of new and highly-engaging mobile apps."

Q3 2012 Financial Summary

During the third quarter, Bitzio divested non-core assets and operations to focus on developing and monetizing fan-based apps in the sports and entertainment markets. The company generated nominal revenues from it legacy software and mobile applications in the third quarter, totaling $154,000 compared to marginal revenues in the same year-ago quarter.

Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2012 were $1.4 million, a significant improvement from $8.1 million in the same year-ago quarter. The year-over-year improvement was primarily due to a significant decrease in stock-based compensation, as well as a $2.3 million goodwill impairment charge recognized in Q3 2011.

Net loss from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2012 totaled $1.4 million or $(0.02) per share, as compared to a net loss of $8.1 million or $(0.22) per share in the same year-ago quarter.

Q3 2012 net loss included $1.9 million in non-cash items, comprised of $61,000 of amortization and depreciation, $558,000 related to losses on assets, $185,000 of derivative liability gain, $308,000 of amortization of debt discounts and $1.1 million of stock-based compensation. This compares to $2,000 of non-cash items in Q3 2011, which were comprised of $300 of amortization and depreciation and $1,500 of stock-based compensation.

Excluding these non-cash items, net loss before discontinued operations in Q3 2012 was $102,000 compared to $257,000 in the same year-ago period.
