Q1 2013 Financial Highlights:

Sales increased 79.2% to $6,510 in the first quarter of 2013 compared to $3,632
in 2012, primarily due to the acquisition of Adeptron in March 2012. For the
quarter, sales to the Company's four largest customers represented an aggregate
of 54% (2012 - 72%) of the Company's total sales.


Gross profit decreased $195, to $881 compared to $1,076 in the same period of
2012. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 13.5% compared to 29.6% for the
same period in 2012. The decrease in gross profit and percentage in the quarter
is largely due to the acquisition of Adeptron which historically had a lower
gross profit.


Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A) expense increased 86.0% to $1,408
compared to $757 for the same quarter in 2012. The increase was primarily due to
one-time legal and professional costs associated with the terminated acquisition
of MTI International, Inc. SG&A expense as a percentage of sales was 21.6%,
comparable to 20.8% in 2012.


The net loss and comprehensive loss was $906 compared to a net income of $467 in
the first quarter of 2012.


Adjusted EBITDA loss was $312 compared to an adjusted EBITDA income of $467 in
the same period last year.


EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation,
amortization, stock-based compensation and restructuring costs. EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized measures under IFRS. However, management
believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as herein defined are useful
supplemental measures to net income (loss), as it provides investors with an
indication of cash earnings prior to debt service, capital expenditures, income
taxes and other non-recurring and non-cash items. Readers should be cautioned,
however, that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an
alternative to net income (loss) determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles as an indicator of the Company's performance or
to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of
liquidity and cash flows. The Company's method of calculating EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the methods by which other companies calculate
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and, accordingly, the EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA used
herein may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.
