1 Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, patent litigation, restructuring and other costs. Adjusted EBITDA does not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA allows Route1 to compare its operating performance over time on a consistent basis.

" Not a dramatic quarter, rather a steady quarter that showed continued operational improvement, revenue growth and improving free cash flow. Route1's fourth quarter should also demonstrate quarter over quarter improvement and set us up for a financially improved fiscal year 2025, said Tony Busseri, Route1's CEO".
