2Adjusted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted EBITDA do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be
comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. See "Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings / (Loss) Per Share" below.

3Starting in Q4 fiscal 2019, we have changed our definition and calculation of Adjusted Earnings Per Share. For a reconciliation of Adjusted
Earnings / (Loss) Per Share, investors should refer to Vecima's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.

 

"Fiscal 2019 was a year of concerted moves and important achievements as we broadly solidified our market position in preparation for the most profound transitions unfolding in the industry: DOCSIS Distributed Access Architecture (DAA) and IPTV," said Sumit Kumar, Vecima Networks' President and CEO.

"On the DAA front, we have now secured our first master purchase agreement covering our Entra Remote PHY Nodes and Monitor products with a Tier 1 operator entering field trials. Our DAA products are also progressing successfully through lab trials with a diverse mix of other Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 MSOs. These are important milestones on the path to commercialization of our new Entra technologies, and we anticipate deployments will initiate in fiscal 2020."

"In our Content Delivery and Storage segment, we continue to make strides in the emerging global IPTV market. During fiscal 2019, we significantly advanced our industry-leading MediaScaleX™ platform and built and expanded customer relationships with some of the world's largest MSOs. We believe our Content Delivery and Storage segment has the potential for over 20% sales growth in fiscal 2020 stemming from the pipeline of opportunities for migration to IP video networks, including linear broadcast, cloud DVR and time-shift TV."

"Vecima achieved revenues of $85.0 million in fiscal 2019, a 9% increase over last year as a result of our acquisition of the Content Delivery and Storage business. While financially, fiscal 2019 reflected the overall transition of the business translating into a net loss of $3.5 million, the results are representative of a point in time for Vecima with DAA revenue yet to come. Thanks to the strategic steps taken in fiscal 2019 to tighten our R&D priorities, streamline our administrative processes and manage our business and finances prudently, we are moving into fiscal 2020 in a very strong financial position and ready to embark on growth."
