Q1 2025 Interim Report

May 8, 2025

Results for the quarter Q1 2025

Highlights

  • Tariff uncertainty impacted early quarter sentiment; later resolved as Tekna products confirmed exempt under United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
  • While recent tariffs introduced short-term uncertainty and geopolitical risk, they are ultimately expected to reinforce the broader macro trend of reshoring and local manufacturing—factors that will support the growth of additive manufacturing and long-term demand for Tekna's products.
  • Slow month for Systems due to lack of orders.
  • Orders picked up for Materials during the quarter, resulting in an overall strong order intake for the company of CAD 12.8m, up 73% compared to Q1 2024.
  • Organizational structure simplified to increase transparency, improve accountability and further reduce overhead cost.
  • Announcement of new CEO Claude Jean to replace Luc Dionne April 28, 2025.

Financial Summary

(Figures in parentheses refer to the same period the previous year)

  • Total revenues CAD 8.4m (8.7m) explained by Systems CAD 0.7m and Materials CAD +0.4m y-o-y. The low Systems revenue is due to low Systems order book.
  • Adjusted EBITDA CAD -0.8m (-2.8m). The improvement is due to improved contribution margin, 51% vs. 45% same quarter last year, due to favorable product mix in Materials, and reduced fixed costs.
  • Cost of goods sold includes CAD 0.4m expense for tariffs related to a systems shipment to the US. Tekna expects this to be recovered in 2025.
  • Negative operating cash flow of CAD -4.4m in the quarter due to changes in NWC of -2.2m, which was negatively impacted by trade receivables and trade payables, and non-recurring costs of CAD 0.9m excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. The balance of CAD -1.3m were from operations, including a CAD 0.4m expense for U.S. tariffs.

  • Sales of all particle size fractions steadily improving contribution margins.

Of interest

  • The report1 "Q4 2024 3DP/AM Market Data and Forecast" from Additive Manufacturing Research (AM Research) states about 2024 additive manufacturing industry performance: "Notably, for the first time, AM materials revenue surpassed hardware revenue. This shift is seen as a sign of a maturing market, where production-oriented applications are beginning to take precedence over prototyping and R&D."
  • The Ark Invest "Big Ideas 2025" report supports the concept that additive manufacturing could benefit from reshoring policies: "The Trump administration's efforts to bolster US manufacturing could benefit 3D Printing."

Outlook

  • Tekna remains committed to profitability and disciplined capital management.
  • Materials:
    • o While recent U.S. tariffs have introduced short-term uncertainty and geopolitical risk, they are ultimately expected to reinforce reshoring and localized manufacturing trends, bolstering growth in additive manufacturing and long-term demand for Tekna's products.
    • o The ongoing trade war is creating uncertainty in the markets; however, strong Materials order intake supports a cautious positive outlook for the remainder of the year.
    • o Business upside potential: in Microelectronics (MLCC), Tekna continues developing its nanomaterials in coordination with prospective customers to capitalize on emerging opportunities.
  • Systems: The process for the potential PlasmaSonic order is ongoing and progressing.

Alternative Performance Measures

Definitions

Tekna presents alternative performance measures as a supplement to measures regulated by IFRS. The Group considers these measures to be an important supplemental measure for investors to understand the Groups' activities. They are meant to provide an enhanced insight into the operations, financing, and future prospects of the company.

These measures are calculated in a consistent and transparent manner and are intended to provide enhanced comparability of the performance from period to period. The definitions of these measures are as follows:

Contribution Margin: Is defined as revenues less direct variable costs such as direct labour, raw material, electricity, gas consumption, commissions, freight, customs and brokerage fees, laboratory supplies and packaging. The Contribution Margin is used to evaluate performance of production before any allocation of fixed manufacturing costs.

Contribution Margin %: is defined as the Contribution Margin divided by revenues in the period.

EBITDA: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures, depreciation, and amortization.

EBITDA Margin: Is defined as EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures, depreciation, and amortization adjusted for certain special operating items affecting comparability. These special operating items include, but not limited to, restructuring costs, listing costs, adjustments for expenses related to cloud-based software previously recorded in the balance sheet (retrospective implementation accounting for cloud-based services for the years 2021, 2020 and 2019) and litigation fees.

Adjusted EBITDA Margin: Is defined as Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues.

EBIT: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures.

EBIT Margin: Is defined as EBIT as a percentage of revenues.

Adjusted EBIT: Is defined as the profit/(loss) for the period before income tax expense, finance costs, finance income, share of net income (loss) from associated companies and joint ventures adjusted for certain special operating items affecting comparability. These special operating items include, but not limited to, restructuring costs, listing costs, adjustments for expenses related to cloud-based software previously recorded in the balance sheet (retrospective implementation accounting for cloud-based services for the years 2021, 2020 and 2019), and litigation fees.

Adjusted EBIT Margin: Is defined as Adjusted EBIT as a percentage of revenues. Adjusted EBIT Margin is a non-IFRS financial measure that the Group considers to be an APM, and this measure should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure.

Long Term Debt/Equity Ratio: Is defined as total non-current liabilities divided by total equity. Long Term Debt/Equity Ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure that the Group considers to be an APM, and this measure should not be viewed as a substitute for any IFRS financial measure.

Please see the Annual Report for a further detailed description of the Group's alternative performance measures.
