  • Gross profit showed an increase of CAD$239,000 over the comparative 2023 period which was an 18.5% improvement in gross profit. This improvement is attributable to better raw material purchasing and an increase in the Company's blending revenues.

Management is encouraged to see the results of its cost cutting measures and a reinvigorated focus on key market opportunities to increase revenue in the gluten-free ingredient supply and blending areas as keys to continued positive financial results. Management will continue to carefully manage cash flow to navigate anticipated growth.

"Nepra's Q2 results are a testament to the dedication and commitment of our team to making sacrifices that were necessary to reposition the Company both from a business and financial perspective" said William Hogan CEO. "I am so proud to tell our shareholders that the successes we will enjoy in the future have come from the willingness of everyone at Nepra to make the right decisions which saw the Company report significant Q2 results in the midst of regulatory and filing issues which prevented us from securing outside capital. This resourcefulness is rare in business today and we will be a stronger company for all our investors, having worked through these times together."

The Company's consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2024, along with its Management Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedar.com.
