The Corporation uses two adjusted financial measures, Adjusted Segment Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization

(Adjusted Segment EBITDA) and Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) to assess its

operating performance. These non-IFRS financial measures are directly derived from the Corporation’s financial statements and are presented in a

consistent manner. The Corporation uses these measures for the purposes of evaluating its historical and prospective financial performance, as

well as its performance relative to competitors. These measures also help the Corporation to plan and forecast for future periods as well as to

make operational and strategic decisions. The Corporation believes that providing this information to investors, in addition to IFRS measures,

allows them to see the Corporation’s results through the eyes of management, and to better understand its historical and future financial

performance.

Securities regulations require that companies caution readers that earnings and other measures adjusted to a basis other than IFRS do not have

standardized meanings and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Accordingly, they should not be

considered in isolation. The Corporation uses Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to measure its performance from one period to the

next without the variation caused by certain adjustments that could potentially distort the analysis of trends in our operating performance, and

because the Corporation believes it provides meaningful information on the Corporation’s financial condition and operating results. Neptune’s

method for calculating Adjusted Segment EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may differ from that used by other corporations.

Neptune obtains its Adjusted Segment EBITDA measurement by adding depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation to segment

income (loss) from operating activities before corporate expenses. Neptune obtains its Adjusted EBITDA measurement by adding to net income

(loss), net finance costs and depreciation and amortization and by subtracting income tax recovery. Other items such as stock-based

compensation, litigation provisions, acquisition costs and severance and related costs that do not impact core operating performance of the

Corporation are also added back as they may vary significantly from one period to another. Adjusting for these items does not imply they are non-

recurring.

CAUTION REGARDING NON-IFRS FINANCIAL MEASURES

COLD ETHANOL EXTRACTION DIFFERENTIATES NEPTUNE’S PROCESS

Ethanol extracts more plant substances than CO2, which misses valuable compounds such as some phytocannabinoids and terpenes

Competitors turn to CO2 extraction because of the large start-up capital expenditures required for cold ethanol equipment. However, Neptune has been executing this process for over a decade
