“I have worked with alacrity in the past 45 days to turn this business around,” said
“To be clear, I didn’t come to Salona Global simply to implement cost cuts. This Company has some compelling new product opportunities to fill some major voids in the physical therapy market. I want to give credit to the previous management team for acquiring these companies and assets. It gives me a large revenue base to implement a turnaround plan, but also a basis for high margin profitable growth going forward.”
“The new Salona Global is built for both profit and revenue growth,” continued

Non-GAAP 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, and stock-based compensation.
The following table provides reconciliation between net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA:
