MONTREAL, March 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Haivision Systems Inc. ("Haivision" or the "Company") (TSX: HAI), a leading global provider of mission critical, real-time video networking and visual collaboration solutions, today announced its results for the first quarter ended January 31, 2026.
"We are benefiting from several powerful global tailwinds that are increasing demand for all our mission-critical solutions. The worldwide increases in defense spending, a heightened focus on cybersecurity, physical and network security, and the continued emergence of private 5G networks for live sports, events, and news, all reinforce our confidence in Haivision's long-term, double-digit revenue growth," said Mirko Wicha, President and CEO of Haivision Systems Inc. Q1 2026 Financial Results
Recent Company Highlights
"As we look ahead, we expect operating expenses to remain relatively flat, reflecting the benefits of the cost optimization initiatives we implemented over the past year. Our disciplined approach to expense management is enhancing operating leverage and positioning us to drive continued Adjusted EBITDA expansion as revenue grows," said Dan Rabinowitz, EVP and Chief Financial Officer. "With a streamlined cost structure and durable end-market drivers, we are confident in our ability to deliver profitable growth in the quarters ahead." Financial Results Revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2026 was $35.2 million, an increase of $7.1 million or 25.1% from the prior year comparable period. The Company is experiencing continued benefit from the transition from integrator to manufacturer of proprietary products in the control room space. Gross Margin* for the quarter was 70.5%, comparable to 72.0% the prior year – largely the result of the timing of deliveries under the legacy integrator model. Total expenses for the quarter were $25.0 million, representing an increase of $2.6 million when compared to the prior year comparative period. The year-over-year increase is largely related to increases in compensation related expenses most of which was invested in sales personnel to support revenue growth and Research and development to support our new products introductions. For the three months ended January 31, 2026, the $7.1 million increase in revenue translated to $4.6 million in incremental gross profits which more than offset the $2.6 million increase in total expenses. The results was an Operating loss of $0.2 million, an improvement of $2.0 million from the prior year comparative period. Similarly, Adjusted EBITDA* for the three months ended January 31, 2026 was $2.6 million, an increase of $2.1 million when compared to the prior year comparative period. The Adjusted EBITDA margin* for the three months ending January 31, 2026 was 7.4% compared to 2.0% for the prior year comparative period.

The financial information presented in this release was derived from the Q1 Financial Statements. Forward-Looking Statements This release includes "forward-looking information" and "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "forward-looking statements") within the meaning of applicable securities laws, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company's growth opportunities and its ability to execute on its growth strategy. In some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "plans", "targets", "expects" or "does not expect", "is expected", "an opportunity exists", "is positioned", "estimates", "intends", "assumes", "anticipates" or "does not anticipate" or "believes", or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "could", "would", "might", "will" or "will be taken", "occur" or "be achieved". In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, nor guarantees or assurances of future performance but instead represent management's current beliefs, expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events and operating performance. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by Haivision as of the date of this release, are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from those indicated by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the risk factors identified under "Risk Factors" in the Company's latest annual information form, and in other periodic filings that the Company has made and may make in the future with the securities commissions or similar regulatory authorities in Canada, all of which are available under the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect Haivision. However, such risk factors should be considered carefully. There can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release. Haivision undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, except as required by applicable securities laws. Non-IFRS Measures Haivision's consolidated financial statements for the first quarter ended January 31, 2026 are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards – Accounting Standards ("IFRS® Accounting Standards"). As a compliment to results provided in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, this press release makes reference to certain (i) non-IFRS financial measures, including "EBITDA", and "Adjusted EBITDA", (ii) non-IFRS ratios including "Adjusted EBITDA Margin", and (iii) supplementary financial measures including "Gross Margins" (collectively "non-IFRS measures"). These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS Accounting Standards. Rather, these non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS Accounting Standards measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. For information on the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of Haivision, composition of the non-IFRS measures, a description of how Haivision uses these measures and an explanation of how these measures provide useful information to investors, refer to the "Non-IFRS Measures" section of the Company's management's discussion and analysis for the three months ended January 31, 2026, dated March 12, 2026, available on the Company's SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca, which is incorporated by reference into this press release. As applicable, the reconciliations for each non-IFRS measure are outlined below. Non-IFRS measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income or comparable metrics determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as indicators of the Company's performance, liquidity, cash flow and profitability.
