For the year ended Jan 31, 2023, total revenues were $15,487,698 (2022 – $9,638,894), an increase of $5,848,804 or 61%. The Company continues its growth in revenues driven from its new clinic operations.
Clinic operations revenues of $12,708,992 accounted for 82% of total revenues for the year ended January 31, 2023, compared to $6,218,880 or 65% of revenues for the year ended January 31, 2022. The significant growth in clinic operations during the year ended January 31, 2023, compared to the same period last year, was driven by clinic operations acquisitions made in the second half of fiscal 2022 in Canada. Clinic operations revenues increased significantly due to the newly acquired Comox Valley and Bridger clinics purchased in August 2021 and November 2021, as well as due to less COVID 19 restrictions which impacted revenues last year. As of January 31, 2023, in Canada, the Company has 75 clinics in Walmart locations in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec and 4 clinics outside Walmart. Of these, 18 medical clinics, 3 Rehab and 5 MedSpa are corporate owned and operated and 62 clinic locations are currently licensed to primarily medical as well as, dental, rehab, telemedicine, and imaging licensees. In Mexico, the Company has 131 corporate owned and operated clinics in Walmart locations, including servicing Walmart associates at 4 clinics inside Walmart’s Distribution Centres. Walmart has a total of 2400 locations in this country. The increase in clinic operations is aligned with the Company’s strategic plan of expanding corporate-owned and operated medical centres with strategic partner Walmart.
For the year ended January 31, 2023, total operating expenses were $22,448,399 (January 31, 2022 – $18,107,422). The year-over-year increase was driven by the growth in Clinic Operation revenues of $6.5m noted above, that resulted in increases in several new investment areas related to clinic operations including higher associate fees for new medical services, higher clinic operation costs, higher salaries and wages and professional fees, and an increase in non-cash charges, Depreciation and Amortization. The operational increases are primarily attributable to the rapid expansion of medical clinics, medical and paramedical practitioners added, and new Rehab and MedSpa services provided.
For the year ended January 31, 2023, the Company reported a loss from operations of $6,960,701 (January 31, 2022 – $8,468,528) a decrease of $1,507,827. The overall decrease in loss from operations is attributable to the specific reductions in Consulting expense and Development Costs while variable operating expenses increased as they relate to a large growth in Clinic revenues.

(1) Adjusted EBITDA
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure to assess the ongoing performance of our Company as it provides more meaningful operating results by excluding the effects of expenses that are not reflective of our underlying business performance as well as one-time or non-recurring expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted to add back or deduct, as applicable, certain expenses, costs, charges, or benefits incurred in the period, which in management’s view, are not indicative of normal operations, including: (i) non-capitalized development costs, (ii) acquisition related costs, (iii) share compensation expense, (iv) bad debt expense(recovery), (v) finance costs (income), and (vi) foreign exchange gain or loss
Non-GAAP measure: Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) determined in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful financial metric as it measures cash generated from operations which the Company can use to fund working capital requirements, service future interest and principal debt repayments and fund future growth initiatives.
