FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
●
Revenue for the
Third Quarter ($7.7M) is up approximately 4% compared to the same
period last year.
●

considerably from the gross margin of 51% for both periods last
year.
●
The quarterly
operating loss of ($0.7M) is among the lowest in over three years.
Allowing the Company to improve the operating loss for the 9 months
that ended June 30, 2018 to ($1.8M) down by 57%, compared to the
same period last year ($4.1M), due to a combination of a strong
Gross Profit results and lower Operating Expenses.

●
Net loss,
attributable to shareholders, for the 9 months that ended June 30,
2018 was ($4.6M) compared to a loss of ($3.5M) for the same period
last year due to a gain on settlement of a contingent liability of
$3.2M in the same period last year. Without the gain on settlement

shareholders would have been $6.7M for the 9 months that ended
June 30, 2017, compared to $4.6M in 2018.
