The Company also highlighted the recent launch of its new POSaBIT Brands offering in early 2026, an innovative software platform designed specifically for cannabis producers and processors. Historically, POSaBIT’s solutions have served only the cannabis retailers. With the introduction of POSaBIT Brands, POSaBIT is now able to address an entirely new segment of the cannabis industry.

“We are incredibly excited about the launch of POSaBIT Brands,” said Hamlin. “For the first time, we are bringing POSaBIT’s technology to producers and processors, essentially doubling our market opportunity. The platform delivers powerful tools for real-time reporting, vendor-managed inventory (VMI), robust product catalogs, and B2B payments, all supported by a highly advanced, AI-driven backend. We are confident that this new solution and expanded market opportunity will drive significant value for POSaBIT in the months and years ahead.”

Non-IFRS Measures

Article content

Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin) and Adjusted EBITDA are non-IFRS measures used by management that do not have any prescribed meaning by IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company defines Adjusted Revenue as gross revenue, minus license support revenue, plus actual licensing cash received as part of POSaBIT’s licensing deals. The Company defines Adjusted Gross Profit as Adjusted Revenue less company cost of goods sold, and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin as a percentage of Adjusted Gross Profit as compared to Adjusted Revenue. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss generated for the period as reported, before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and further adjusted to remove changes in fair values and expected credit losses, foreign exchange gains and/or losses, impairments. The Company believes these non-IFRS measures are useful metrics to evaluate its core operating performance and uses these measures to provide shareholders and others with supplemental measures of its operating performance. The Company also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, frequently use these non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of companies, many of which present similar metrics when reporting their results. We caution readers that Adjusted Revenue, Adjusted Gross Profit (and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin) and Adjusted EBITDA are not substitutes for gross revenue, gross profit or profit/loss, respectively.
