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.Article contentRevenues & 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 three-month period ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company applied the following inflation index for the restatement of each respective month.Article contentArticle content JanuaryFebruaryMarch20251.061.041.0020241.261.111.00Article contentUnder 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.Article content Q1-25Q1-24ARS746633Article content Q1-25Q1-24ARS Variation %1(4)%(4)%Article content1 Depreciation of ARS vs CAD during each period, calculated as follows: (End of period rate – Beginning of period rate) / Beginning of period rate.Article contentIn Q1-25 the inflation rate used for the hyperinflation adjustment on revenues and operating expenses of the Company’s subsidiary in Argentina was similar to the ARS depreciation in the same period. Therefore, the impact of the hyperinflation adjustment on revenues and operating expenses was not significant in Q1-25. Conversely, in Q1-24 the inflation rate was higher than the ARS depreciation, resulting 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 of the Company’s subsidiary in Argentina in CAD in Q1-25 when compared to the same prior year period (“Hyperinflation Impact”).Article contentArticle contentUnder hyperinflation accounting, the cost of goods sold in the local currency, i.e. ARS, are 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 Q1-25, the cumulative inflation index applied on the inventory sold was higher than the prior year period, leading to higher cost of goods sold reported under IAS 29 in CAD and consequently a lower gross margin in Q1-25 compared to Q1-24 (“Gross Margin Hyperinflation Impact”).Article contentFINANCIAL RESULTS UNDER NON-GAAP MEASURES[In thousands of Canadian dollars]Article contentThe 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. Article content[i] Financial results excluding the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29Article contentThe Company applies IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyperinflation Economies, as the Company’s Argentine subsidiaries 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.Article contentFinancial 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.Article contentThe Company believes that financial results excluding the impact of hyperinflation under IAS 29 represents a useful measure to investors as allow results to be viewed without the impact of IAS 29, 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.

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.Article contentThe 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.
