Management Commentary

Article content

Benjamin Urban, chief executive officer, remarked “The third quarter of 2025 marked a shift back to normal business with improving margins and a return to positive Adjusted EBITDA. We are pleased with the progress being made in our Transformation Office and believe the actions will improve DIRTT as an organization as well as create value for our shareholders. Our 12-month forward pipeline has increased to $333.5 million as of September 30, 2025 with approximately $50 million relating to our Construction Services team (formerly known as Integrated Solutions). In October, DIRTT was announced as Canada’s Safest Employer in manufacturing and COVE™ was the winner of Clinical Gold and Best in Competition at Healthcare Design Expo in Kansas City. We have the pipeline, the manufacturing excellence and the innovation and are excited for the future.”

Fareeha Khan, chief financial officer, added “This quarter we increased cashflows by $3.0 million and closed the quarter with $32.3 million of liquidity. We look forward to working with BDC to secure C$15 million of financing which we intend to use to partially settle the January Debentures. The remaining January Debenture balance will be settled with DIRTT’s cash on hand. We have also extended our RBC Facility for an additional year. The impact of prevailing tariffs have been substantially mitigated and looking forward, for the fourth quarter of 2025, we expect revenue between $48.0 and $52.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA between $5.0 and $7.0 million.”

Third Quarter 2025 Results

Article content

Third quarter 2025 revenue was $37.7 million, a decrease of $5.7 million or 13%, from $43.4 million for the same period of 2024. We entered the third quarter of 2025 with an 18% higher twelve-month forward pipeline as compared to July 1, 2024. We experienced higher than normal order delays due to job sites not being ready, which contributed to lower revenue this quarter.

Article content

Gross profit and gross profit margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were $11.5 million or 30.4% of revenue compared to $16.8 million or 38.8% of revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. Sequentially, gross profit margin increased from 27.8% in the second quarter of 2025 as tariff mitigation actions began to take effect. Adjusted Gross Profit (see “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $12.5 million, a decrease from $17.6 million Adjusted Gross Profit for the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted Gross Profit Margin (see “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) was 33.1% in the third quarter of 2025, a decrease from 40.7% in the comparative period of 2024. Gross profit and Adjusted Gross Profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 were negatively impacted due to the decline in revenues as well as tariff-related costs that commenced in March 2025.

Article content

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by $0.4 million to $4.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was driven by a $0.3 million decrease in commissions as a result of lower revenues, a $0.1 million decrease in marketing and tradeshow costs, a $0.1 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses, and a $0.1 million decrease in travel, meals and entertainment costs. The decrease was partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in salaries and benefits costs.

Article content

General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.4 million to $4.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, from $5.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily related to a $1.2 million decrease in professional services costs largely due to insurance recoveries, lower litigation costs, and costs related to the repurchase of January Debentures and December Debentures from 22NW Fund, LP (“22NW”) and the support and standstill agreement with 22NW and WWT Opportunity #1 LLC that occurred in the third quarter of 2024 which were not repeated in 2025, a $0.2 million decrease in building and infrastructure costs, a $0.1 million decrease in public company costs, and a $0.1 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses. The decrease was offset by a $0.1 million increase in board fees, and a $0.1 million increase in communication costs.

Article content

Article content

Operations support is comprised primarily of project managers, order entry and other professionals that facilitate the integration of our Construction Partner (as defined herein) project execution, our manufacturing operations, and support staff for the Construction Services team. Operations support expenses decreased by $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 to $1.8 million compared to $1.9 million for the comparative period of 2024. The decrease was related to a $0.2 million decrease in salaries and benefits costs, offset by a $0.1 million increase in research and development costs.

Article content

Technology and development expenses relate to non-capitalizable costs associated with our product and software development teams, and are primarily comprised of salaries and benefits of technical staff. Technology and development expenses decreased $0.5 million to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily related to a $0.5 million decrease in salaries and benefits costs.

Article content

Article content

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.7 million compared to $0.8 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease in expense was largely due to a decrease in deferred share units (“DSUs”) expense as a result of a lower number of DSUs granted in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024, slightly offset by higher restricted share units expense due to a full quarter of expense on an August 31, 2024 grant in the third quarter of 2025 compared to one month of the expense in the third quarter of 2024.

Article content

Reorganization expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $2.6 million, from $0.6 million for the prior year quarter. Reorganization expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, primarily relate to one-time termination and consultant costs associated with the establishment of a Transformation Office, while the reorganization costs for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were largely made up of movement of inventory and equipment from our Rock Hill facility for use at the Calgary facility.

Article content

Foreign exchange loss or gain increased from a loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 to a gain of $0.6 million for the same period of 2025. The increase is primarily related to the weakening of the Canadian dollar over the three months ended September 30, 2025. The majority of our revenue is collected in U.S. dollars (approximately 90%), and approximately 70% of the costs incurred in the three months ended September 30, 2025, were denominated in Canadian dollars.

Article content

Interest income for three months ended September 30, 2025 was $0.2 million compared to $0.3 million for the comparative period of 2024. The decreased interest income is due to declining prime rates that determine interest yields on the Company’s lower cash equivalents during the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024.

Article content

Interest expense decreased by $1.1 million from $1.5 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2024, to $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. This decrease is largely due to repayment of debt throughout the year ended December 31, 2024 and during the first nine months of 2025, reducing the interest payable on current and long-term debt.

Article content

Article content

Net loss after tax was $3.5 million or $0.02 net loss per share, basic and diluted, in the three months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of $10.6 million from net income after tax of $7.1 million or $0.04 and $0.03 net income per share, basic and diluted, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in net income is primarily the result of a $7.5 million gain on extinguishment of debt resulting from the Debenture Repurchase in the quarter ended September 30, 2024 not repeated in the same period of 2025, a $5.3 million decrease in gross profit, a $2.0 million increase in reorganization expenses, a $0.1 million increase in income taxes, and a $0.1 million decrease in interest income. The decrease was partially offset by a $2.5 million decrease in other operating expenses, a $1.1 million decrease in interest expense, and a $1.0 million increase in foreign exchange gain.

Article content

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $2.9 million to $1.2 million from $4.1 million and Adjusted EBITDA Margin decreased to 3.1% from 9.4% for the same period of 2024. This decrease reflects a $5.2 million decrease in Adjusted Gross Profit, offset by a decrease in operating expenses (excluding reorganization expense and stock-based compensation) of $2.4 million.

Outlook

Article content

Business is returning to normal and we returned to positive Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2025 as the effects of tariffs on gross profit have been substantially mitigated through price and other tariff mitigation actions taken by the Company earlier in the year. For the fourth quarter of 2025, we expect to report revenues between $48.0 to $52.0 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $5.0 to $7.0 million.

Article content

Our twelve-month forward pipeline has grown 7.2% to $333 million from July 1, 2025 to October 1, 2025. Our revenue growth is attributable to our construction partners of (“Construction Partners”) as well as our new Construction Services team (formerly known as Integrated Solutions). As our revenue outlook improves, we are looking to transform our business. In early 2025, DIRTT’s leadership team established a transformation office to accelerate the strategic transformation of our business by streamlining the Company’s processes and procedures, supporting the Construction Services team and improving productivity across the Company (the “Transformation Office”). We are restructuring certain aspects of the business as disclosed in Note 4 of our interim condensed consolidated financial statements and will continue to look for cost improvements to grow Adjusted EBITDA. The program is expected to be completed in 2026.

Article content

Construction Services opportunities are growing and we have almost doubled the number of persons on that team since the beginning of the year. Our manufacturing capacity is approximately $400 million and we will benefit from fixed cost leverage as our revenue grows.

Article content

Our 8-week trial against Falkbuilt Ltd., Messrs. Smed and Loberg and several other former DIRTT employees alleging breaches of restrictive covenants, fiduciary duties, employment duties and confidentiality is due to start on February 2, 2026. DIRTT is pursuing damages and losses it suffered in Canada, the United States, and abroad in the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta.

Article content

Our balance sheet is strong, including $32.3 million of liquidity (comprising of unrestricted cash and available borrowings). Despite lower revenue in the third quarter, cash flow increased by $3.0 million this quarter due to improved margins, cost containment and limited activity on the normal course issuer bid for our common shares that commenced on December 18, 2024. There is C$16.6 million ($11.9 million) principal due under the January Debentures (as defined herein), which mature on January 31, 2026. We are pleased to announce we recently entered a preliminary non-binding term sheet with Business Development Corporation of Canada (“BDC”) for financing of up to C$15.0 million. We expect to use the proceeds to partially settle the January Debentures. The remaining January Debentures (C$1.6 million) will be settled through our cash balances. Advancement of funds remains subject to, among other things, completion of due diligence by BDC¹.

Article content

Article content

¹Any advancement of funds is subject to, among other things, BDC’s due diligence and the negotiation and execution of binding definitive documentation. There can be no assurance that a definitive agreement will be reached or that the proposed financing will be completed on the terms in the non-binding term sheet or at all, and the Company may ultimately determine not to proceed with the financing or use any net proceeds of such financing for the repayment of the January Debentures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Article content

Our interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These GAAP financial statements include non-cash charges and other charges and benefits that we believe are unusual or infrequent in nature or that we believe may make comparisons to our prior or future performance difficult.

Article content

As a result, we also provide financial information in this news release that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its review and evaluation of the financial performance of the Company. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures also provide additional insight to investors and securities analysts as supplemental information to our GAAP results and as a basis to compare our financial performance period-over-period and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of our core operating results from period to period and to other companies by removing the effects of our capital structure (net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities, or foreign exchange movements), asset base (depreciation and amortization), tax consequences, reorganization expense, unusual or infrequent charges or gains (such as gain on extinguishment of debt, and impairment charges), stock-based compensation, and government subsidies. We remove the impact of foreign exchange gain (loss) from Adjusted EBITDA. Foreign exchange gains and losses can vary significantly period-to-period due to the impact of changes in the U.S. and Canadian dollar exchange rates on foreign currency denominated monetary items on the balance sheet and are not reflective of the underlying operations of the Company. In addition, management bases certain forward-looking estimates and budgets on non-GAAP financial measures, primarily Adjusted EBITDA. We have not reconciled forward-looking non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDA guidance, to its corresponding GAAP measures due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections, particularly with respect to non-operating income and expenditures, which are difficult to predict and subject to change.

Article content

Article content

Depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, reorganization expense, foreign exchange gains and losses, gain on extinguishment of debt, impairment charges, net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities, and tax expense are excluded from our non-GAAP financial measures because management considers them to be outside of the Company’s core operating results, even though some of those receipts and expenses may recur, and because management believes that each of these items can distort the trends associated with the Company’s ongoing performance. We believe that excluding these receipts and expenses provides investors and management with greater visibility to the underlying performance of the business operations, enhances consistency and comparativeness with results in prior periods that do not, or future periods that may not, include such items, and facilitates comparison with the results of other companies in our industry.

Article content

The following non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this news release, and a description of the calculation for each measure is included.

Article content

Article content

You should carefully evaluate these non-GAAP financial measures, the adjustments included in them, and the reasons we consider them appropriate for analysis supplemental to our GAAP information. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures has important limitations as an analytical tool due to exclusion of some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider any of these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. You should also be aware that we may recognize income or incur expenses in the future that are the same as, or similar to, some of the adjustments in these non-GAAP financial measures. Because these non-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.
