## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**TRILOGY INTERNATIONAL PARTNERS INC. ADVISES THAT ITS COMMON SHARES PREVIOUSLY REGISTERED ON FORM F-3 REMAIN REGISTERED AND THAT IT HAS ENTERED INTO FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS FOR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF ITS ESCROWED PORTION OF PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF ITS FORMER NEW ZEALAND SUBSIDIARY**

Bellevue, Washington, January 26, 2023 – **Trilogy International Partners Inc.** ("**Trilogy**" or the "**Company**") (TSXV: TRL.H), was recently informed by staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") that, notwithstanding the Company's loss of foreign private issuer status as of January 1, 2023, the Company's existing registration of its common shares ("Common Shares") on Form F-3 will remain in effect through the date of the Company's filing of its annual report for 2022 on Form 10-K.

This advice from the SEC staff indicates that the Common Shares registered on Form F-3 will remain freely tradeable until the Company files its 10-K with the SEC, which it expects to do on or about March 30, 2023. Thereafter, the Common Shares will be tradeable by US persons on TSX Venture's NEX board subject to the rules of Regulation S, as previously announced by the Company on September 27, 2022. As stated in the September 27 announcement, the registration status of Common Shares does not affect the ability of non-US persons (as defined in Regulation S of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended), to continue to sell their Common Shares at any time.

The SEC staff advice was given to the Company orally and informally. US persons who intend to trade the Common Shares are advised to seek advice from counsel with respect to any trading activity they intend to pursue.

Additionally, as previously disclosed, the Company is entitled to escrowed proceeds of up to approximately 22 million New Zealand dollars ("NZD") that were retained in connection with the sale of its former New Zealand subsidiary, Two Degrees Group Limited. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts for 20 million NZD in order to mitigate the risk of negative currency movements of the NZD relative to the U.S. dollar ("USD"). The foreign currency contracts mature on June 30, 2023 at a blended rate of 0.617, as compared to the NZD to USD exchange rate of 0.57 at September 30, 2022. Subject to any claims that might be made against the escrow, funds are scheduled to be released from the escrow to the Company in May 2023.
