Business Restructuring
Prior to the appointment of Mike Seckler as CEO
in June 2023, the Company had accumulated significant acquisition
debt along with flat revenues, mounting losses and declining cash
balances. Since then, the Company achieved positive Adjusted EBITDA
in Q3 2023, Q4 2023 and Q2 2024, following a retooling effort in Q1
2024.
“We have made tremendous progress over the past
12 months including a restructuring of the entire Company,” said
Mike Seckler, CEO. “We focused on boosting sales of our core Biodex
division and cutting costs to increase profitability. Concurrently,
we reduced and restructured debt.”
“I am pleased to report that the business has
now stabilized and is generating positive Adjusted EBITDA. I remain
optimistic about maintaining recent financial momentum into the
third quarter and beyond for our core business, Biodex. As
previously announced, we are planning to divest our remaining
business units, which we anticipate could allow us to retire all
outstanding acquisition debt and provide a path to sustainable
operations built upon a large client base and a stellar brand in
Biodex,” he added.
Gordon Bean Named CFO
The Company also announced the promotion of
Gordon Bean from Vice President of Finance to Chief Financial
Officer, as of August 1, 2024. Mr. Bean has more than 20 years of

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release refers to “Adjusted EBITDA”
which is a non-GAAP and non-IFRS financial measure that does not
have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP or IFRS. The
Company’s presentation of this financial measure may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
This non-GAAP financial measure assists the Company’s management
in comparing its operating performance over time because certain
items may obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons
of long-term performance difficult, as they are of a nature and/or
size that occur with inconsistent frequency or relate to discrete
acquisition plans that are fundamentally different from the
ongoing operating plans of the Company. The Company’s management
also believes that presenting this measure allows investors to
view the Company’s performance using the same measures that the
Company uses in evaluating its financial and business performance
and trends.
“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net loss
excluding interest expense, provision for income taxes,
depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of
right-of-use asset, amortization of intangible asset, foreign
exchange (loss) gain, other income, provision for impairment,
change in fair value of contingent consideration, transaction
costs, gain/loss on sale of business and stock-based
compensation.
