$3,917K in product sales and$3,039K of service revenue, predominantly related to security services. - Gross profit margins on product sales were 44% for the three months ended
June 30, 2023 . This is due to a strong quarter in RS2D as well as high margins from third-party equipment sales within the K'Prime segment. Benchtop NMR margins continue to be compressed in the quarter due to unutilized labour and higher costs related to post-COVID supply chain issues as well as ongoing inflation. At the end ofJune 2023 and into the third quarter, the Company took cost cutting measures including the reduction of its manufacturing labour force to better align with its current manufacturing requirements and improve margins. The Company continues to analyze its supply chain to manage its material costs. - Service gross profit margins in the quarter were (15%) as the Company continued its accelerated training schedule for the CATSA project that began in the first quarter of 2023, expensing
$920K of training costs. As stated previously, while training will be an ongoing part of the Company's security service group, it is not expected to continue at this accelerated pace once the CATSA project ramp-up is complete. While the Company now has a presence in all airports, wages related to airports not yet being fully serviced by the Company continued to be deferred as prepaid expenses, with the Company capitalizing$890K of wages during the quarter. - Loss before other items for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was (
$2,399K ) versus ($947K) compared to the same period last year. - Net loss for the three-month period ended
June 30, 2023 , was ($4,054K ) as compared to the three-month loss for June 30, 2022, of ($2,532K ). - During the quarter, the Company began a cost reduction plan, including layoffs, in some of its segments to better align its resources and reduce its fixed costs. This is expected to generate annualized fixed cost savings in excess of
$2 million . The Company continues to explore other fixed cost reductions, not related to labour reductions, to further increase annualized cost savings. In conjunction with this initiative, the Company recognized restructuring expenses of$355K in the quarter. - The Company closed on two-year committed
$15 million senior secured credit facilities with ATB Financial, comprised of a$5.0 million demand operating line and a$10 million term loan.

1 Financial Highlights should be read in conjunction with the Company's Q2 2023 Management Discussion and Analysis as well as the Q2 2023 Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |
Recent strategic and operational highlights during and after the second quarter of 2023 include:
- Benchtop NMR: The Company is still working through the transition period of integrating the K'Prime and
Nanalysis sales organizations for Benchtop NMR and has experienced some sales slowdown due to this. Management continues to believe that the implemented changes will benefit long-term sales performance. Additionally, the Company is continuing to pursue partnerships and while label opportunities to augment revenue from direct sales. The Company believes it has experienced a cyclical slowdown in capital spending due to economic slowdown in the US and Worldwide, which it continues to monitor closely. - Security Service:
The Airport Security Project continues its ramp-up phase. The Company now has a presence in all 81 airport locations and is expanding its services offered in each location. The Company expects this project to begin generating positive cash flows in the second half of 2023, and full service rollout to be completed in early 2024. - Quad Systems: As previously mentioned, on
April 18 th, the Company debuted and presented the full 400MHz full high-field NMR product in collaboration with Quad Systems, of which the company owns 43%, at the prestigious ENC 2023 conference. The Company expects Quad's component sales to gain momentum in the second half of 2023 including initial full system sales in 2024. - MRI: The Company was able to recognize revenues from a large pre-clinical MRI project that started during the first quarter which contributed to a solid quarter at RS2D.
- 3rd Party Equipment: Second quarter sales grew 52% over Q1 2023, though still trailed behind Q2 2022 sales. To counter possible economic slowdowns in both Benchtop NMR and 3rd Party Equipment sales, the Company has partnered with a third-party financing organization in
the United States to expand the number of ways its customers can buy products to include different lease and financing options. - Sales Leases: In
August 2023 , the Company successfully closed the sale of itsU.S. sales lease book for gross proceeds of$518K USD .
