DIGITAL SHELF SPACE SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES REVENUES IN Q3
Digital Shelf Space Corp. (TSX-V: DSS

) announces unaudited financial results for the nine months ended
September 30, 2011.
Highlights
Steady revenue growth during the nine months ending September 30, 2011
results in total revenues to date in excess of $1.8 million dollars.
Revenues for the third quarter ending September 30, 2011 were $669,533,
a 15% increase over the previous quarter and a 19% increase over the
first quarter of 2011.
The growth this quarter is very encouraging in what is traditionally the
slowest season for fitness products of this nature.
Retail expansion in Canada and the US continued this quarter with a
number of large retailers being added, including but not limited to,
Canadian Tire, Zellers, National Sports, Sport Chek, Sports Experts,
Academy Sports and Outdoors, and The Sports Authority.
Revenue
The total revenue for the nine months of $1,813,611 (October 31, 2010 -
$6,557) continued to be driven primarily by the Company's new product
GSP RUSHFIT, an 8-week home-based DVD workout program starring Mixed
Martial Arts ("MMA") welterweight world champion Georges St-Pierre. In
addition to the product sales directly through the GSP RUSHFIT website (
www.gsprushfit.com
http://www.gsprushfit.com
), wholesale revenues grew by 26% this quarter alone, when compared to
total wholesale revenues for the previous six months, through the
Company's partnership with Northern Response (International) Ltd.
("Northern"). Distribution was increased to include but not limited to
Zellers, Sport Chek, National Sports, Sports Experts and Canadian Tire
in Canada and in the US, The Sports Authority - the largest retailer in
the American sporting goods channel - as well as Academy Sports and
Outdoors. Plans for international expansion continue to move forward and
the Company anticipates new markets to be opened up starting next
quarter.
Mr. Jeffrey Sharpe, CEO and President of DSS stated, "We are very
pleased with the financial results for our third quarter and for the 9
month period ending September 30, 2011. For us to increase our revenue
in the third quarter by 15% over the second quarter and 19% over the
first quarter is a very positive sign that GSP RUSHFIT is gaining
significant traction in the retail market place. Typically revenues for
health and fitness products experience seasonal trends with the first
quarter of the calendar year most often generating the largest
proportion of annual sales. Retail sell through of GSP RUSHFIT has
happened very quickly and is now for sale in over 4000 stores across
Canada, as well as is for sale in the US with strategic sporting goods
retailers. We look forward to expanding our distribution channels
internationally and extending our marketing and advertising reach
throughout the balance of 2011." GSP RUSHFIT was launched on December
10, 2010 and has quickly established itself as a premium brand in the
lucrative home fitness market.
Expenses
During the nine month period ending September 30, 2011, operating
expenses increased to $2,259,902 (October 31, 2010 - $1,029,161).
Contributing factors to this increase of $1,230,711 were those directly
related to the increased revenue generated in this quarter by the sales
of the GSP RUSHFIT program and expenses of $415,284 related to the
publicly traded status of the Company for which there were no
comparative expenses in 2010.
Net Loss
Although expenses more than doubled on a period to period comparison,
the loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $416,025, a
decrease of $606,612 from the net loss of $1,022,637 for nine months
ended October 31, 2010. The loss of $70,441 this quarter is a decrease
of $159,587, down from a loss in the second quarter of $230,028.

of others; the availability and cost of labour and services; expected
growth of sales as a result of the Northern Response Partnership and
consumer demand ;and expected results from the use of celebrity fitness
products. While the Company considers these assumptions to be
reasonable, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant
uncertainties and contingencies.
Additionally, there are known and unknown risk factors which could cause
the Company's actual results, performance or achievements to be
materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking information
contained herein. Known risk factors include, among others: the Company
may not be able to sustain or increase revenues achieved during the

and uncertainty as to the availability and terms of future financing,
unpredictability of the commercial success of our programming,
difficulties in integrating technological changes and other trends
affecting the entertainment industry, significant competition in the

for fitness media will slow, reliance on the health and marketability of
celebrity fitness talent in productions owned by the Company, the
possibility of competition from other ecommerce and online marketing
vendors, the continued strong growth in adoption of digital media, the
possibility of new fitness titles from traditional large studios that
target the male demographic, large media production companies may move
ecommerce operations in-house rather than outsourcing, reliance on
production studios continuing to outsource ecommerce operations,
reliance on a number of key employees, limited operating history, the
possibility of claims against the intellectual property rights of the
Company, the possibility of infringements upon the intellectual property
rights of the Company; the Company may not have sufficiently budgeted
for expenditures necessary to carry out planned activities; future
operating results are uncertain and likely to fluctuate; the Company may
not have the ability to raise additional financing required to carry out
its business objectives on commercially acceptable terms, or at all; and
