Carmanah Reports Third Quarter 2016 Fiscal Results
(firmenpresse) - VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 11/09/16 -- Carmanah Technologies Corporation (TSX: CMH) ("the Company" or "Carmanah") today reported its third quarter financial results for the period ended September 30, 2016. Currency amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
All figures below, unless otherwise stated, are for Carmanah's continuing operations and exclude the operating results from the Company's Power business segment. The planned disposal was announced in a press release dated October 11, 2016.
Third Quarter Revenues and Profitability
Revenues from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2016 were USD $11.3 million, down approximately 9 per cent from revenues of USD $12.4 million in the third quarter of 2015.
"While third quarter revenues did not meet expectations," said John Simmons, Chief Executive Officer. "Our focus on improving margins and managing expenses resulted in strong Net Income and Adjusted EBITDA(1)."
Net income in the third quarter of 2016 was USD $1.1 million up from a loss of USD $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2015. Carmanah management relies on Adjusted EBITDA (a non-IFRS measure) to gauge financial performance. In the third quarter of 2016, the Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of USD $1.7 million, or 15% of revenue, up 48% from USD $1.1 million, or 9% of revenue, in the same period in 2015. A table reconciling net income and Adjusted EBITDA is provided in this press release.
(1)NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Core Operating expenditures. This news release presents information about EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Core Operating expenditures, all of which are non-IFRS financial measures, to provide supplementary information about 2016 operating performance. Carmanah defines EBITDA as net income or loss before interest, income taxes, amortization, and non-cash stock based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA removes unusual or non-operating items from EBITDA, such merger and acquisition costs, restructuring charges, asset write offs, and foreign exchange gains and losses. Core Operating expenditures exclude anomalies, such as the recognition of previously unrecognized investment tax credits or restructuring charges. Carmanah uses these non-IFRS measures internally to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate its performance. These measures are not intended as a substitute for IFRS measures. A limitation of utilizing these non-IFRS measures is that the IFRS accounting effects of the non-recurring items do in fact reflect the underlying financial results of Carmanah's business and these effects should not be ignored in evaluating and analyzing Carmanah's financial results. Therefore, management believes that Carmanah's IFRS measures of net loss and the same respective non-IFRS measure should be considered together. Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Readers should refer to the "Definitions and Reconciliations" section of the Company's most recently filed MD&A for nine-month period ended September 30th, 2016 for a more detailed discussion of these measures and their calculation.
