Sales in Canada were up 61% year to date to $487,711, despite a decrease in foreign sales. However, due to fluctuations in the exchange rates of the Canadian dollar, net income was impacted by a foreign exchange loss in the second quarter of $155,729 compared to a gain of $64,753 in the same period last year, resulting in a negative swing of $220,480.
EBITDA amounts to $47,244 for the quarter and $296,214 for the year to date.
