"Many of our concerted efforts to diversify our customer base beyond Canada and enter new markets with more differentiated offerings demonstrated some of their early returns," said Kevin Ford, Calian CEO. "Our track record of deploying capital to drive long-term growth, margin expansion and profitability remains our focus. This quarter's record results across revenues and margins only strengthens our position to continue on our various growth initiatives."

The third quarter of 2022 carried on the Company's continued growth through acquisition and margin expansion. Revenues year to date were $421 million compared to $390 million in FY21 and $309 million in FY20. Gross margins year to date were 28% compared to 24% in FY21 and 21% in FY20. The Company signed an additional $190 million in new contracts during the quarter and exited with a strong backlog of $1.3 billion.

"This was a strong quarter across many fronts. Our ability to continue to expand gross margins and EBITDA while maintaining top-line growth was impressive. We also continued our strong track record of converting this performance into cash flow," said Patrick Houston, Calian Chief Financial Officer. "We posted operating cash flow of nearly $12 million and working capital contributed an additional $8 million in the quarter."

"Our four piston segment model once again demonstrated the value of Calian's diversity. While Advanced Technologies and Health faced some headwinds in year over year performance, our Learning and IT Cyber business units had strong performance to keep Calian group consolidated results on record pace," said Kevin Ford. "We have adjusted our revenue guidance for the final quarter of our fiscal year to reflect timing around larger revenue opportunities in the Advanced Technologies segment and slower sales in Health as the industry rebounds from COVID, which has been offset by better margin performance across the business allowing us to maintain our EBITDA and net profit guidance."

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES TO MOST COMPARABLE IFRS MEASURES

These non-GAAP measures are mainly derived from the consolidated financial statements, but do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS; therefore, others using these terms may calculate them differently. The exclusion of certain items from non-GAAP performance measures does not imply that these are necessarily nonrecurring. From time to time, we may exclude additional items if we believe doing so would result in a more transparent and comparable disclosure. Other entities may define the above measures differently than we do. In those cases, it may be difficult to use similarly named non-GAAP measures of other entities to compare performance of those entities to the Company's performance.

Management believes that providing certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to IFRS measures, provides users of the Company's financial reports with enhanced understanding of the Company's results and related trends and increases transparency and clarity into the core results of the business. Adjusted EBITDA excludes items that do not reflect, in our opinion, the Company's core performance and helps users of our MD&A to better analyze our results, enabling comparability of our results from one period to another.

The Company uses adjusted net profit and adjusted earnings per share, which remove the impact of our acquisition amortization and gains, resulting in accounting for acquisitions and changes in fair value to measure our performance. These measurements better align the reporting of our results and improve comparability against our peers. We believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of issuers. Management also uses non-GAAP measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets and assess our ability to meet our capital expenditure and working capital requirements. Adjusted profit and adjusted earnings per share are not recognized, defined or standardized measures under the International Financial Reporting Standards. Our definition of adjusted profit and adjusted earnings per share will likely differ from that used by other companies (including our peers) and therefore comparability may be limited. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for or be considered in isolation from measures prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards. Investors are encouraged to review our financial statements and disclosures in their entirety and are cautioned not to put undue reliance on non-GAAP measures and view them in conjunction with the most comparable International Financial Reporting Standards financial measures. The Company has reconciled adjusted profit to the most comparable International Financial Reporting Standards financial measure as shown above.
