Fiscal 2025 Results Overview

• Fiscal 2025 sales of $60.9 million versus $20.7 million in the prior year, an increase of approximately 194%. Sales increased throughout the year as new business was on-boarded and existing customers expanded their sales versus the prior year. Sales for 2025 are the largest annual sales in the Company's history.

• Gross profit of $5.2 million or 8.6% of sales, versus $1.8 million or 8.5% of sales in the prior year, an increase of approximately 197% in gross profit dollars. Adjusted gross profit⁽¹⁾ of $3.5 million or 5.8% of sales when accounting for the impact of realized losses on derivatives versus 8.6% of sales in the prior year.

• Cash operating expenses of $4.7 million or 7.7% of sales versus $3.2 million or 15.3% of sales in the prior year. Cash operating costs as percentage of sales improved versus the prior years as business continues to grow and scale and overheads are leveraged on an expanded platform.

• Loss from operations of $0.8 million versus a loss of 2.4 million in the prior year, a significant improvement as increased sales and gross margin dollars were supported by lower operating costs. Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation costs, income from operations was $0.3 million versus a loss in the prior year of $1.5 million.

• Net interest and accretion costs of $0.7 million versus $1.2 million in the prior year, reflecting lower costs as debt was repaid throughout the year and resulted in no long-term debt being outstanding as of December 31, 2025

• During fiscal 2025 the Company completed several transactions designed to intentionally strengthen its balance sheet and improve its financial position. In doing so the Company reduced various liabilities by approximately $16.2 million. While some of these liabilities were settled with cash, the majority were settled by issuing common shares and the net impact of these transactions resulted in a loss on settlement of debt of $12.9, of which $13.0 million were non-cash and had no impact on the Company's net equity position as these losses were offset with an increase in share capital. In addition, restructuring costs of $0.8 million were also incurred.

• Net loss from continuing operations for the year of $16.8 million versus a loss of a loss of $3.2 million in the prior year. After accounting for the impact of realized and unrealized losses on derivates of $2.2 million and net costs related to the restructuring and repositioning of $13.6 million, net loss from continuing operations was $1.0 million versus a net loss in the prior year of $4.0 million after adjusting for the one-time gain on dissolution of a subsidiary plus the impact of realized and unrealized derivative gains.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Results Overview

• Fourth quarter 2025 sales of $14.9 million versus $6.5 million in the prior year, an increase of approximately 132%. Sales increased in the quarter as momentum continued via new business that was on-boarded throughout the year and growth with existing customers. 2025 fourth quarter sales reflect the largest fourth quarter sales in the Company's history.

• Gross profit of $1.6 million or 10.8% of sales, versus $0.6 million or 9.1% of sales in the prior year, an increase in gross profit dollars of approximately 176%. Adjusted gross profit⁽¹⁾ of $1.0 million or 6.8% of sales when accounting for the impact of realized losses on derivatives versus 10.7% in the prior year.

• Cash operating expenses of $1.3 million or 8.6% of sales versus $1.2 million or 18.7% of sales in the prior year. Cash operating costs as percentage of sales improved versus the prior year as the Company's business continues to grow and scale and overheads are leveraged on an expanded platform.

• Loss from operations of $0.2 million versus a loss of $1.3 million in the prior year, a significant improvement as increased sales and gross margin dollars were supported by lower operating costs. Excluding non-cash stock-based compensation costs, income from operations was $0.3 million versus a loss in the prior year of $0.7 million.

• Net interest and accretion costs of $0.1 million versus $0.3 million in the prior year, reflecting lower costs as debt was repaid throughout the year and resulted in no long-term debt being outstanding as of December 31, 2025

• Loss on settlement of debt of $7.4 million as the Company revalued the shares issued in July 2025 to settle the 8% convertible debentures to include the difference between the fair value of the consideration the debenture holder received and the fair value of the consideration the debenture holder would have received under the original debenture terms, with an equal offset to share capital, thus not impacting net equity.

• Gain on $0.3 million on the repayment of convertible debentures during the fourth quarter.

• Net loss from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of $7.2 million versus a loss of a loss of $1.7 million in the prior year. After accounting for the impact of realized and unrealized gains on derivates of $0.1 million, loss on settlement of debt of $7.4 million and the gain on the repayment of debt of $0.3 million, net loss from continuing operations of $0.2 million versus a net loss in the prior year of $1.9 million after adjusting for the impact of realized and unrealized derivative gains.

1. The information presented herein refers to the non-IFRS financial measures of adjusted gross profit and EBITDA. We hedge currencies for certain product categories where either the supply or sales commitments are fixed in foreign currencies. The gains and losses from these hedging activities are combined with gross profit to determine adjusted gross profit. We also refer to EBITDA, which is Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. These two measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. Non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of the Company's financial information reported under IFRS and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company's results of operations from management's perspective and thus highlight trends in its business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. The Company believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS financial measures in the evaluation of the Company. The Company's management also uses non-IFRS financial measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts.
