Notable Quotes

  • "We achieved record revenues in Q2 2025 for the third consecutive quarter following the successful acquisition of Dermolab late last year. The growing contribution of the CMO segment as more than offset the softer performance from the Eye-care segment..." — François Roberge, President and CEO
  • "The signing of a new $7.5 million operating line of credit with Desjardins has provided in excess of $4 million of working capital flexibility to help fund our operations and growth initiatives. This financing, coupled with the new $10 million term loan from Desjardins and BDC will provide additional liquidity, help eliminate several debts and loans as well as reduce our debt servicing and cost of capital going forward" — Luc Mainville, Executive Vice-president and CFO
