Q3 2026 earnings summary15 Jan, 2026

Executive summary

  • Q3 2026 sales were CAD 71.7 million, with adjusted EBITDA of CAD 9.5 million, driven by high-margin projects and disciplined cost management.

  • Backlog increased 8% since the fiscal year start to CAD 296.8 million, with 80.4% deliverable within 12 months.

  • Bookings grew 32% year-over-year to CAD 77.9 million, led by strong performance in nuclear and oil & gas sectors, especially in North America.

  • Most rescheduled orders from the previous quarter were recaptured, though some remain deferred.

  • A major contract was secured with Ontario Power Generation for over CAD 20 million, reinforcing leadership in the nuclear sector.

Financial highlights

  • Q3 sales were CAD 71.7 million, down 2.4% year-over-year, mainly due to lower Italian shipments and order timing.

  • Gross profit was CAD 27.2 million (37.9% margin), stable versus last year.

  • Adjusted EBITDA was CAD 9.5 million, down from CAD 14.3 million last year, reflecting lower gross profit and higher other expenses.

  • Adjusted net income for Q3 was CAD 4 million, down from CAD 8.5 million last year.

  • Cash flow from operations used CAD 6.7 million, mainly due to working capital changes.

Outlook and guidance

  • Management expects normalization of customer delivery schedules to improve cash inflows.

  • Strong backlog and bookings, especially in nuclear and oil & gas, support a positive outlook.

  • No immediate changes to management or strategy are expected before transaction closing; post-closing plans may be shared.

  • 80.4% of backlog is expected to be delivered in the next 12 months.

  • Management anticipates another solid performance for fiscal 2026, despite tariff uncertainties.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
