The Company achieved adjusted EBITDA of US$324,118. Financial information is reported in United States dollars and in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

In addition, we achieved increased hardware sales and overall order backlog," stated Tracy Rees, President and Chief Executive Officer, Intrinsyc Technologies Corporation.

For our clients it means a single source provider from concept through production that they can trust to deliver high quality integrated products; on-schedule, and with a shared-success business model. For our investors, it means greater share value derived from a more attractive scalable revenue business model. Further evidence of the company's positive momentum is our recent selection by the Canadian Innovation Exchange ("CIX") as one of Canada's Top 20 Most Innovative Public Technology Companies."

Financial Highlights

Three Month Comparative Results

The Company reported revenue of US$3.4 million, up 25% over the same period in the prior year of US$2.7 million and up 18% over the US$2.9 million in the prior quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in revenue was due to increased revenue from the sale of Intrinsyc hardware products as well as its product development engineering services.

Gross margin(2) was 38%, which was higher than the 36% gross margin in the same period in the prior year but lower than the 41% gross margin in the previous quarter of fiscal 2015. Gross margin improvement over the prior year period was attributable to the improvement in engineering productivity and the reduced cost basis of engineering services due to lower value of Canadian currency versus the United States currency, and a reduction from hardware revenue. The decline in gross margin over the prior period was primarily due to the increase of hardware revenue.

Adjusted EBITDA was as follows:

The Company had a net loss of US$20,603 compared to a net loss of US$77,776 in the same period in the prior year and net income of US$266,359 in the prior quarter.

The Company had a net loss of US$82,579 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to a net loss of US$37,633 in the prior fiscal year period.
