Management Commentary
“In Q2, our record top-line growth, expanding margins and positive adjusted EBITDA were driven by a growing revenue stream from managed and professional services,” said
“Our expansion into the hospitality and manufacturing sectors resulted in $1.1 million in new contracts for managed and professional services combined with hardware and software. We were also engaged by a prominent wellness brand customer for managed security services in partnership with Alacrinet. The company maintained a 100% customer retention rate, which has now continued over the last six quarters.
“Throughout the first half of 2018, our channel partner program has proven to be effective way to grow our customer base and managed services contracts, with this leading to increased monthly recurring revenue.
“Looking ahead, we are very optimistic for the second half of 2018 because we see the growing threat of targeted breaches across all industries and business sizes driving increased cybersecurity budgets as companies prepare for 2019 and beyond.
“We also see our growing sales, marketing, and service organization driving a continued ramp up in our managed services sales and margin growth as we expand into new markets. We anticipate a continued favorable shift to higher margin managed and professional services in the second half of 2018. Combined with ongoing growth in customer acquisition and an increasing number of customers on our recurring revenue model, we are firmly on track for another record year of operational and financial performance.”
Cybersecurity Outlook
Opportunities for specialist service providers in the cybersecurity sector have grown in line with the increased volume of cyber-attacks being encountered by businesses, non-profits, and government institutions and covered by global media. This shift has not only led to increasing enterprise budgets being allocated to cyber protection but also increased interest in investment opportunities in what is a high growth sector.
According to Cybersecurity Ventures’ recent quarterly report, global cybersecurity spending is predicted to exceed

Supplemental Non-IFRS Financial Measures
In addition to IFRS financial measures, management uses non-IFRS financial measures to assess the company's operational performance. It is likely that the non-IFRS financial measures used by the company will not be comparable to similar measures reported by other issuers or those used by financial analysts as their measures may have different definitions.
Generally, a non-IFRS financial measure is a numerical measure of an entity's historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that is neither calculated nor recognized under IFRS. Management believes that such non-IFRS financial measures can be important as they provide users of the financial statements with a better understanding of the results of the company's recurring operations and their related trends, while increasing transparency and clarity into its operating results. Management also believes these measures can be useful in assessing the company's capacity to discharge its financial obligations.
In Q1 2018, management began assessing its operational performance using supplemental non-IFRS statement of income, adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as loss for the period as reported excluding depreciation and amortization, change in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities, share-based compensation and interest expense.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a term recognized under IFRS and non-IFRS measures do not have standardized meaning. Accordingly, non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The table below provides a reconciliation of net (loss) for the period as reported to non-IFRS adjusted EBITDA for the three months and six months ended
