This press release contains forward-looking statements and information (collectively, "forward-looking information") within the meaning of applicable securities laws that reflect our expectations regarding the future growth, results of operations, performance, business prospects, and opportunities of the Company and Eastern. In addition, the financial information in this news release relating to Eastern’s revenue and adjusted EBITDA is derived from Eastern's financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for private enterprises, which differ in some material respects from IFRS, and accordingly may not be comparable to the financial statements of AGI or other Canadian public companies.

AGI's method of calculating Eastern's adjusted EBITDA may differ from the methods used by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that adjusted EBITDA should not replace profit or loss as indicators of Eastern's performance, or cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of Eastern’s liquidity and cash flows.

We use non-IFRS financial measures such as adjusted EBITDA in addition to, and in conjunction with, results presented in accordance with IFRS (or the accounting principles used to prepare Eastern’s financial statements) as we believe they reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of a company’s operations that may provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the company’s business. Accordingly, it may not be possible to compare Eastern's adjusted EBITDA with adjusted EBITDA or other financial measures of other companies having the same or similar businesses including AGI. Adjusted EBITDA includes normalizations related to the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy program, revenue recognition, and foreign exchange, among others.
