The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and additional information about POSaBIT are available on the Company’s website at www.posabit.com/investor-relations or on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin) and Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS measures used by management that do not have any prescribed meaning by IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company defines Adjusted Revenue as gross revenue, minus license support revenue, plus actual licensing cash received as part of POSaBIT’s licensing deals. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as Adjusted Revenue less company cost of goods sold, and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin as a percentage of Adjusted Gross Profit as compared to Adjusted Revenue. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss generated for the period as reported, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to remove changes in fair values and expected credit losses, foreign exchange gains and/or losses, impairments. The Company believes these non-IFRS measures are useful metrics to evaluate its core operating performance and uses these measures to provide shareholders and others with supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, frequently use these non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. We caution readers that Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin) and Adjusted EBITDA are not substitutes for gross revenue, gross profit or profit/loss, respectively.This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.Forward-Looking StatementsThis press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our business strategy, product development, timing of product development, events and courses of action.Statements which are not purely historical are forward-looking statements and include any statements regarding beliefs, plans, outlook, expectations or intentions regarding the future including words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “objective,” “may,” “will,” “might,” “should,” “could,” “can,” “intend,” “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “plan,” “is designed to” or similar expressions suggesting future outcomes or the negative thereof or similar variations.
