Q2 2025 Headlines:
Year-to-Date Q2 2025 Headlines:
Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 is $184.0 million, an increase of 13% or $21.1 million, compared to $162.8 million for the same period in 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, total revenue was $362.6 million, an increase of 19%, or $58.7 million, compared to $303.9 million for the same period in 2024. The increase for the three and six months compared to the same period in the prior year is attributable to revenues from new acquisitions. The Company experienced organic growth of 9% and 2%, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, or 6% and 1% after adjusting for the impact of changes in the valuation of the US dollar against most major currencies in which the Company transacts business. For acquired companies, organic growth is calculated as the difference between actual revenues achieved by each business in the financial period following acquisition, compared to the estimated revenues they achieved in the corresponding financial period preceding the date of acquisition by the Company. Organic growth is not a standardized financial measure and might not be comparable to measures disclosed by other issuers.
Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $62.7 million, an increase of 71%, or $26.1 million, compared to $36.6 million for the same period in 2024. Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $122.2 million, an increase of 51%, or $41.1 million, compared to $81.1 million for the same period in 2024. The increase for the three and six month periods is primarily attributable to growth from acquisitions. Operating income is not a standardized financial measure and might not be comparable to measures disclosed by other issuers. See 'Non-IFRS Measures'.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $23.6 million compared to net loss of $2.2 million for the same period in 2024. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $44.3 million compared to net loss of $306.6 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in net income for the three and six months is primarily attributable to growth from acquisitions and the Mandatory Conversion of Preferred and Special Securities on March 25, 2024 such that no further preferred and special securities expense was booked in the subsequent quarters.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, CFO increased $68.7 million to $78.4 million compared to $9.7 million for the same period in 2024 representing an increase of 705%. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, CFO increased $73.8 million to $118.5 million compared to $44.7 million for the same period in 2024 representing an increase of 165%. The primary reason for the increase is that CFO includes the impact of changes in non-cash operating assets and liabilities exclusive of effects of business combinations or changes in non-cash operating working capital ('NCOWC') which improved during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the same period prior year, as well as higher operating income.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025, FCFA2S increased $69.6 million to $72.4 million compared to $2.8 million for the same period in 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, FCFA2S increased $75.8 million to $107.4 million compared to $31.5 million for the same period in 2024. The increase in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 is driven by higher CFO compared to the same periods in 2024. FCFA2S is a non-IFRS Measure. See 'Non-IFRS Measures'.
Non-IFRS Measures
Operating income (loss) refers to income (loss) before income taxes, amortization of intangible assets, redeemable Preferred and Special Share expense, gain on bargain purchase, and finance and other expenses (income). We believe that operating income is useful supplemental information as it provides an indication of the profitability of the Company related to its core operations. Operating income (loss) is not a recognized measure under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Accordingly, readers are cautioned that operating income (loss) should not be construed as an alternative to net income (loss).
The following table reconciles operating income to net income:
Free cash flow available to shareholders ''FCFA2S'' refers to net cash flows from operating activities less interest paid on lease obligations, interest paid on bank debt, transaction costs on bank debt, repayments of lease obligations, interest, dividends and other proceeds received, and property and equipment purchased net of proceeds from disposal. The Company believes that FCFA2S is useful supplemental information as it provides an indication of the uncommitted cash flow that is available to shareholders if Lumine Group does not make any acquisitions, or investments, and does not repay any debts. While the Company could use the FCFA2S to pay dividends or repurchase shares, the Company's objective is to invest all of its FCFA2S in acquisitions which meet the Company's hurdle rate.
FCFA2S is not a recognized measure under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. Accordingly, readers are cautioned that FCFA2S should not be construed as an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities.
