Non-IFRS Financial Measures
The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA provides useful supplemental information to investors, analysts, lenders and others in order to evaluate the Company’s operational and financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA does not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and may be calculated differently by other issuers. The Company defines “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization adjusted for non-cash, extraordinary, non-recurring and other items unrelated to the Company’s core operating activities. The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA from both net income (loss) and operating income (loss). Non-IFRS financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, nor superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
