The strong performance of "Keychron Orca echo" further reinforces GIZMART's role as a strategic pillar of the Company's content commerce business. By integrating media, community engagement, crowdfunding, and product commercialization, GIZMART enables the Company to create value beyond traditional digital publishing while providing global brands with direct access to highly engaged consumer communities.

The success of "Keychron Orca echo" further demonstrates the scalability and commercial viability of the Company's community-driven product development model.

The Company also plans to further strengthen its strategic partnership with Keychron. In late July, GIZMART is expected to launch Keychron G6 HE UltraLight, Keychron's latest gaming mouse, making the product available through GIZMART ahead of other markets. While distinct from GIZMART's co-development initiatives, the launch further demonstrates the continued expansion of the strategic partnership between Keychron, GIZMART, and Kopek Japan, and the Company's commitment to growing its content commerce business through collaborations with leading global brands.

"Becoming the first project to surpass ¥500 million in GMV on GIZMART marks an important milestone not only for 'Keychron Orca echo,' but also for our content commerce business. We are grateful for the tremendous support from our users, community, and partners. This achievement reinforces our confidence that GIZMART can continue creating value by connecting global brands with passionate and engaged communities through our content commerce strategy, and we look forward to expanding this model through future collaborations," said Motoko Imada, Co-Founder and CEO of TNL Mediagene.

Building on this milestone, the Company intends to further expand its content commerce business through strategic collaborations that leverage its media brands, engaged communities, and product commercialization capabilities.
