Financial Results
Three months ended October 31, 2025. Revenue for the three months ending October 31, 2025 was $40.2 million, an increase of $10.0 million or 33.3% from the prior year comparable period. Strong growth in our sales pipeline in the second half of the year and timely introduction of new products have translated to significantly higher revenues. Gross Margin* for the quarter was 73.0%, comparable to the prior year. Total expenses for the quarter were $25.4 million, representing an increase of $3.7 million when compared to the prior year comparative period. The year-over-year increase is largely related to increases in compensation related expenses most of which was invested in sales personnel to support revenue growth and Research and development to support our new products introductions and to a lesser extent Operations and Support to support the growth.
For the three months ended October 31, 2025, the $10.0 million increase in revenue translated to $7.3 million in incremental gross profits which more than offset the $3.7 million increase in total expenses. The results was an Operating profit of $3.9 million, an increase of $3.6 million from the prior year comparative period. Similarly, Adjusted EBITDA* for the three months ended October 31, 2025 was $7.1 million, an increase of $4.1 million when compared to the prior year comparative period. The Adjusted EBITDA margin* for the three months ending October 31, 2025 was 17.6% compared to 9.8% for the prior year comparative period.
Net income for the three months ended October 31, 2025, was $3.4 million compared to $2.1 million for the prior year comparative period.
Full year ended October 31, 2025. Revenue for the full year ending October 31, 2025 was $137.6 million, an increase of $8.1 million or 6.3% from the prior year comparable period. Strong growth in our sales pipeline in the second half of the year and timely introduction of new products have translated to higher revenues in the second half of the year. Gross Margin* for the year were 72.5 %, compared to 73.1% in the prior year. Total expenses for the quarter were $101.0 million, representing an increase of $11.8 million when compared to prior year. The year-over-year increase is largely related to $8.5 million in increased compensation expenses particularly in the sales function, followed by operations and Research and Development; $2.1 million related to weakening Canadian dollar when compared to the US dollar and the Euro; $1.7 million related to non-recurring, legal settlement. These increases were partially offset by a $1.0 million reduction in amortization expenses related to intangible assets.
For the full year ended October 31, 2025, the $8.1 million increase in revenue translated to a $5.1 million increase in Gross profit* which was only partially able to offset the $11.8 million increase in total expenses. The resulting Operating loss of $1.2 million represents a decrease of $6.7 million from the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA* for the full year ended October 31, 2025 was $12.8 million, a decrease of $4.5 million from the prior year. The Adjusted EBITDA margin* for the full year ended October 31, 2025 was 9.3% compared to 13.4% for the prior year.
Net income for the full year ended October 31, 2025 was $0.1 million compared to net income of $4.7 million in the prior year comparative period.

Financial Statements, Management's Discussion and Analysis and Additional Information
Haivision's consolidated financial statements for the full year ended October 31, 2025 (the "2025 Financial Statements"), the management's discussion and analysis thereon and additional information relating to Haivision and its business can be found under Haivision's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The financial information presented in this release was derived from the 2025 Financial Statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
This release includes "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's growth opportunities and its ability to execute on its growth strategy. In some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plans", "targets", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "an opportunity exists", "is positioned", "estimates", "intends", "assumes", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate" or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might", "will" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, nor guarantees or assurances of future performance but instead represent management's current beliefs, expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events and operating performance.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by Haivision as of the date of this release, are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those indicated by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the risk factors identified under "Risk Factors" in the Company's latest annual information form, and in other periodic filings that the Company has made and may make in the future with the securities commissions or similar regulatory authorities in Canada, all of which are available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Haivision. However, such risk factors should be considered carefully. There can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release. Haivision undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, except as required by applicable securities laws.
Non-IFRS Measures
Haivision's consolidated financial statements for the fourth quarter ended October 31, 2025 are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards – Accounting Standards ("IFRS® Accounting Standards"). As a compliment to results provided in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, this press release makes reference to certain (i) non-IFRS financial measures, including "EBITDA", and "Adjusted EBITDA", (ii) non-IFRS ratios including "Adjusted EBITDA Margin", and (iii) supplementary financial measures including "Gross Margins" (collectively "non-IFRS measures"). These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS Accounting Standards. Rather, these non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS Accounting Standards measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. For information on the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of Haivision, composition of the non-IFRS measures, a description of how Haivision uses these measures and an explanation of how these measures provide useful information to investors, refer to the "Non-IFRS Measures" section of the Company's management's discussion and analysis for the three months and full year ended October 31, 2025, dated January 14, 2026, available on the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca, which is incorporated by reference into this press release. As applicable, the reconciliations for each non-IFRS measure are outlined below. Non-IFRS measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income or comparable metrics determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as indicators of the Company's performance, liquidity, cash flow and profitability.
