Management Commentary

"Q3 was another record quarter of profitable growth for KITS," said Roger Hardy, Co-Founder and CEO of KITS. "We're adding new customers at a record pace, expanding margins, and seeing customers in both glasses and contact lenses return at record levels. Making eyecare easy has been a lot of fun this quarter as the team delivered exceptional results across the board for customers and shareholders. With revenue for the nine months ended September 30 up 29.7% year-over-year to $148.6 million, Adjusted EBITDA up more than 150% to $8.9 million, and net income increasing over seven-fold; our momentum continues to build. We remain deeply enthusiastic about the prospects of our many high-growth, high-margin initiatives and confident they will continue to create value and transform the eyecare category in the coming quarters."

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Revenue increased by 25.1% to $52.4 million compared to $41.9 million in the third quarter of 2024. Growth was driven by continued traction across our eyecare offerings, positioning KITS for sustained momentum heading into the final quarter of 2025.

Gross profit increased by 31.6% to $18.1 million compared to $13.8 million in the third quarter of 2024, while gross margin increased by 170 basis points to 34.6% compared to 32.9% in the third quarter of 2024. This margin expansion was driven by strategic pricing, an improved product mix, and targeted promotions that supported customer acquisition and encouraged repeat purchases.

Net income improved to $1.9 million, or $0.06 per share (basic), compared to net income of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per share (basic), in the third quarter of 2024. The improvement was primarily attributable to an improvement in revenue, fulfillment and marketing efficiency.

EBITDA increased by $2.4 million to $3.3 million compared to $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, while Adjusted EBITDA improved by 79% to $2.9 million compared to $1.6 million in the third quarter of 2024. The improvement in Adjusted EBITDA reflects disciplined execution across pricing, marketing, and fulfillment, driving sustained profitability as we continue to scale.

On September 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $19.7 million compared to $19.3 million on December 31, 2024.

Fourth Quarter 2025 Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2025, KITS management expects revenue to be in the range of $52 million to $54 million, with Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue between 4% and 6%. The Company intends to announce a Chief Marketing Officer in Q1 2026, to support the Company's long-term growth strategy.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Industry Metrics

This press release includes references to certain non-IFRS financial measures such as Constant Currency Revenue, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and certain industry metrics. These financial measures and industry metrics are employed by the company to measure its operating and economic performance and to assist in business decision-making, as well as providing key performance information to senior management. The company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the company's operating and financial performance. These financial measures are not defined under IFRS, nor do they replace or supersede any standardized measure under IFRS. Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Definitions and reconciliations of non-IFRS measures to the nearest IFRS measure and Industry Metrics can be found in our Management's Discussion and Analysis. Such non- IFRS reconciliations can also be found in this press release under "Financial Highlights".

These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of words such as "intend," "believe," "could," "continue," "expect," "estimate," "forecast," "may," "potential," "project," "plan," "would," "will," and other words of similar meaning. Each forward-looking statement contained in this press release is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such a statement. Our business is subject to substantial risks and uncertainties.
