This presentation includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), including Adjusted EBITDA. These financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with IFRS and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing the Company's financial results.
