MARKHAM, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 14, 2024 / iFabric Corp. ("iFabric" or the "Company") (TSX:IFA)(OTCQX:IFABF), a leader in technology enhanced apparel, today announced its results for its third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

"We demonstrated steady performance with an equal quarter-over-quarter financial performance with a notable increase in percentage gross margin. This sets the stage for a record fourth quarter, as the company continues to capitalize on growth opportunities and drive operational efficiencies. With a robust order book and strategic initiatives underway, iFabric is well-positioned for sustained success and value creation for its shareholders." stated Hylton Karon, President, and CEO of iFabric.

"The previously announced fiscal year 2024 outlook, in the range of $28 million to $32 million, is on track to deliver a new record year for both revenue and profits, with revenue for Q4 anticipated to be more than $11 million. The only current concern is the port strike in Vancouver, which would affect our Canadian deliveries. If it continues to the point that Q4 deliveries are delayed past December 31st, 2024, there will be a negative impact to Q4. However, any such delayed deliveries would positively impact Q1 of 2025. This is being closely monitored," concluded Mr. Karon.

*Note: Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and share based compensation.

*USE OF NON-GAAP MEASURES

Certain measures in this document do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and, therefore, are not considered generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") measures and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Where non-GAAP measures or terms are used, definitions are provided. The Company believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide important information regarding the operational performance and related trends of the Company's business. In this document and in the Company's consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise noted, all financial data is prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess its operating performance without the effects of (as applicable): current and deferred tax expense, finance costs, interest income, depreciation and amortization of plant assets, other gains and losses, impairment loss, share-based compensation and other non-recurring items. The Company adjusts for these factors as they may be non-cash, unusual in nature and may not optimally represent its operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be representative of net earnings from operations or an alternative measure to cash provided by operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS.
