Forward Looking Statements and Non-IFRS Measures
1. Forward Looking Statements: This Presentation contains forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation, and forward-looking
statements within the meaning of United States securities legislation. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking
statements in this Presentation include, but are not limited to, statements related to (i) projections regarding Gross Basis Revenue, EBIDTA and Adjusted EBITDA for future financial
periods, (ii) the Companys ability to increase gross margins for its products, (iii) the Companys ability to expand its business by completing future acquisitions, and (iv) the Companys
ability to expand its business by demand creation. These forward-looking statements are based on managements reasonable assumptions, estimates, expectations, analyses and
opinions, which are based on managements experience and perception of trends, current conditions and expected developments, and other factors that our management believes
relevant and reasonable in the circumstances, but which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things: (i) the Companys ability to increase
demand and lower costs for existing products, (ii) the Companys ability to complete and finance future product acquisitions, (iii) the Companys ability to maintain sales of current
pharmaceutical products within projected volumes, (iv) the cost of servicing debt, (v) product manufacturing costs, and (vi) costs of operations. The Companys actual results, product
acquisitions and financial position could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of numerous factors, risks and uncertainties, many of
which are beyond the Companys control. Management considers the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based to be reasonable at the time they were
prepared, but cautions that these assumptions regarding the future events, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, may ultimately prove to be incorrect. These forward-
looking statements, by their nature, necessarily involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking
statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: general economic and business conditions, changes in demand for the Companys products,
changes in competition, the ability of the Company to integrate acquisitions or complete future acquisitions, the Companys ability to complete any required financing, interest rate
fluctuations, the ability to reduce manufacturing costs, currency exchange rate fluctuations, dependence upon and availability of qualified personnel and changes in government
regulation. For a further discussion of risks relevant to the Company, see our Annual Information Form for the year ended September 30, 2015 available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com
and our Annual Report on Form 40-F for the year ended September 30, 2015 filed with the SEC on the EDGAR filing system at www.sec.gov, as well as the Companys subsequent
ongoing continuous disclosure filings that can be found on SEDAR and EDGAR, including the Companys Q3 MD&A.
Gross Basis Revenues: For products that are in the transition phase during a reporting period, the Company presents Gross Basis Revenue which is a non-IFRS measure that the
Company defines as the revenue that the Company would have received had it held title to and sold its products directly to its customers during the transition period. Gross Basis
Revenue is calculated from revenue, as reflected in the Companys financial statements, by adding back the cost of goods sold and selling expenses that are associated with the
revenue as reported by the vendor.
Adjusted EBITDA: Earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairment charges, non-cash stock based compensation, foreign exchange and derivative
gains or losses, investment income or expense, and acquisition cost.
Reconciliations: Reconciliations of Gross Basis Revenue to revenue and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net loss, being the most directly comparable IFRS measures, are
included in the Companys MD&A for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016, as filed on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. These non-IFRS measures are not recognized under
IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
