NON-IFRS MEASURES – This news release provides certain financial measures that do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. These non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Working capital is not a recognized measure under IFRS. Management believes that in addition to net income (loss), working capital (working capital deficiency) is a useful supplemental measure that demonstrates the Company’s overall debt position and assesses the Company’s overall leverage position necessary to repay debt or fund future capital investment. Investors are cautioned, however, that this measure should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss) determined in accordance with IFRS as an indication of SugarBud’s performance. SugarBud’s method of calculating this measure may differ from other companies and accordingly, may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. Working capital (working capital deficiency) is the total of cash plus accounts receivable and prepaids and deposits, less accounts payable and bank debt.

Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
