HYPERINFLATION
The Company applies IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflation Economies, as the Company’s Argentine subsidiary uses the Argentine Peso as its functional currency. IAS 29 requires that the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy be adjusted based on an appropriate general price index to express the effects of inflation. After applying for the effects of hyperinflation, the statement of income (loss) is converted using the closing foreign exchange rate of the month.
Revenues and operating expenses in the local currency, i.e. ARS, are restated from the month of the sales or the month in which the expense was incurred to the end of the reporting period using the inflation index during that period. The restatement calculation is performed on a year to date basis based on IAS29 ("Inflation Adjusted Figures"). For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company applied the following inflation index for the restatement of each respective month.
| January | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September | |
| 2025 | 1.19 | 1.17 | 1.12 | 1.09 | 1.08 | 1.06 | 1.04 | 1.02 | 1.00 |
| 2024 | 1.67 | 1.48 | 1.33 | 1.22 | 1.17 | 1.12 | 1.08 | 1.04 | 1.00 |
Under IAS 29, the translation from the local currency, to the reporting currency is performed on the Inflation Adjusted Figures using the end of period rate at the reporting date. The Inflation Adjusted Figures were converted to CAD using the following quarter-end closing rates for each of the respective periods.
| Q3-25 | Q3-24 | |
| ARS | 981 | 716 |
| Q3-25 | Q3-24 | YTD-25 | YTD-24 | |||||
| ARS Variation %1 | (12 | )% | (8 | )% | (37 | )% | (17 | )% |
1 Depreciation of ARS vs CAD during each period, calculated as follows: (End of period rate - Beginning of period rate) / Beginning of period rate.
In Q3-25 and YTD-25, the inflation rate used for the hyperinflation adjustments on revenues and operating expenses for the Company's subsidiary in Argentina was lower than the ARS depreciation in the same period. For example, the revenues generated and operating expenses incurred in January 2025 were restated by applying an inflation index of 19% while the ARS to CAD depreciated by 37% in YTD-25. Consequently, this resulted in lower revenues and operating expenses reported under IAS 29 in CAD. Conversely, in Q3-24 and YTD-24, the inflation index was higher than the ARS depreciation which resulted in higher revenues and operating expenses reported under IAS 29 in CAD. Therefore, the hyperinflation accounting under IAS 29 resulted in a decrease in the reported revenues and operating expenses for the Company's subsidiary in Argentina in CAD in both Q3-25 and YTD-25 when compared to the same periods in prior year ("Hyperinflation Impact").
Under hyperinflation accounting, the cost of goods sold in the local currency, i.e. ARS, is restated using the inflation index from the purchase or manufacturing date to the end of the reporting period, and are converted to CAD using the respective quarter-end closing rates. In Q3-25 and YTD-25, the cumulative inflation index applied on the inventory sold was higher than the prior year periods, leading to higher cost of goods sold reported under IAS 29 in CAD and consequently a lower gross margin both in Q3-25 and YTD-25 compared to the same periods in prior year ("Gross Margin Hyperinflation Impact").
FINANCIAL RESULTS UNDER NON-GAAP MEASURES
[In thousands of Canadian dollars]
The Company discloses non-GAAP measures and ratios that do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. The Company believes that shareholders, investment analysts and other readers find such measures helpful in understanding the Company’s financial performance. Non-GAAP financial measures and adjusted EBITDA per share ratio do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and may not have been calculated in the same way as similarly named financial measures presented by other companies. The Company uses the following non-GAAP measures.
[i] Financial results excluding the impacts of hyperinflation under IAS 29
The Company applies IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflation Economies, as the Company's Argentine subsidiary used the Argentine Peso as their functional currency. IAS 29 requires that the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is the currency of a hyperinflationary economy be adjusted based on an appropriate general price index to express the effects of inflation.
Financial results under IFRS are adjusted to remove the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29. The impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29 is calculated by applying an appropriate general price index to express the effects of inflation. After applying the effects of translation, the statement of income is converted using the closing foreign exchange rate of the month.
The Company believes that financial results excluding the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29 represents a useful measure to investors as they allow results to be viewed without those impacts, thereby facilitating the comparison of results period over period. The presentation of financial results excluding the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29 is considered to be a non-GAAP measure and does not have any standardized meaning under GAAP. As a result, the information presented may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
The following tables reconcile the financial results under IFRS to financial results excluding the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29.

[ii] Financial results at constant currency
Financial results at constant currency are obtained by translating the prior period revenues and financial results from the functional currencies to CAD using the conversion rates in effect during the current period. Furthermore, with respect to Argentina, the Company excludes the impact of hyperinflation and translates the revenues and results at the average exchange rate in effect for each of the periods.
The Company believes that financial results at constant currency represents a useful measure to investors because it eliminates the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations may have on period-to-period comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange markets and therefore, provides greater transparency to the underlying performance of our consolidated financial results. The presentation of revenues and financial results under constant currency is considered to be a non-GAAP measure and does not have any standardized meaning under GAAP. As a result, the information presented may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, adjusted EBITDA increased by $7,533 or 56%. The increase was mainly driven by higher Adjusted Gross Margin, partly offset by higher costs related to the Paladin and Sumitomo Transactions and the increase in our promotional activities behind our pipeline and early launch products.
Explanation of adjustments from EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA
| Impact of IAS 29 | Impact of hyperinflation accounting under IAS 29 over the operating income (loss). |
| Acquisition and transaction costs | Non-capitalizable acquisition and transaction costs relate to costs incurred on legal, consulting and advisory fees for the acquisitions. |
| Step-Up Expense | Step-up expense relates to the impact in cost of goods sold of the difference between the fair value of inventory acquired and the cost paid in a transaction, accounted under IFRS 3 - Business Combinations, when the inventory acquired as part of the transaction is sold. |
| Other non-recurring expenses | Other non-recurring expenses relate to expenses incurred by the Company that are not due to, and are not expected to occur in, the ordinary course of business. |
[vi] Adjusted EBITDA per share
Adjusted EBITDA per share is defined as Adjusted EBITDA over number of common shares outstanding at the end of the respective period.
The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA per share represents a useful measure to investors to assess profitability and measure the Company's ability to generate liquidity through operating activities on a per common share basis, without the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29, acquisition and transaction costs, Step-Up Expense and non-recurring expenses, thereby facilitating the comparison period over period. The presentation of adjusted EBITDA per share is considered to be a non-GAAP ratio and does not have any standardized meaning under GAAP. As a result, the information presented may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
The Company calculated adjusted EBITDA per share as follows:
| Q3-25 | Q3-24 | YTD-25 | YTD-24 | |
| Adjusted EBITDA | 20,987 | 13,454 | 48,607 | 42,787 |
| Adjusted EBITDA per share | 0.21 | 0.13 | 0.49 | 0.42 |
| Number of common shares outstanding at period end (in thousands) | 99,678 | 100,976 | 99,678 | 100,976 |
