Financial and Operational Highlights
Q1 2025 Financial Results
Gross margin % was 18.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 18.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by higher revenues from fluoroscopy and positive adjustments to physician reimbursement rates compared to the comparative quarter (see Non-IFRS Financial Measures - Gross Margin and Gross Margin %).
Adjusted EBITDA was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $0.9 million for the three months March 31, 2024.

Home building seems to be booming in Tri-Cities. But is it just a mirage?
Tri-City schools recess for the summer next week, kicking off the busy season for home buying. For those with house hunting on their to-do list, there is good news and trouble is brewing as builders cut back amid concerns about the Tri-Cities and U.S. economy. The good news: There were 944 homes listed for sale in May, the largest selection since November 2014, when there were about 1,000, according to Tri-City Association of Realtors archives. he average home price remains high, averaging $472,000, about $3,000 more than a year ago. But the double-digit price increases of the pandemic years have eased. The number of sales is holding steady, 321 in May compared to 330 a year ago and 284 the year before that. 'I think we're going to be petty stable for a little while,' said Andrew Magallanez, chief association executive for the local Realtors association. The note of caution, however, is Tri-Citians readily see excavators turning vacant land into future subdivisions around the community. But looks are deceiving. Home builders are starting fewer homes, said Jeff Losey, president of the Home Builders Association of Tri-Cities. 'When you drive around and you look, it's blowing up,' he said. However, fears about interest rates, tariff-fueled increases in lumber prices and concerns about federal funding for the Hanford cleanup are prompting home builders not to expose themselves to a potential downturn. Losey reports local home builders pulled 22% fewer permits for single-family homes in April compared to a year ago. It's not just local. Nationally, new home construction fell 12%, according to the National Association of Home Builders, which echoed concerns about new tariffs on building materials such as Canadian lumber. The national association anticipates tariffs will increase the average cost to build a home by more than $9,200, depending on which tariffs and retaliatory tariffs are enacted. Losey said the downturn is spread across the Tri-Cities, with permit numbers tumbling in Kennewick, Pasco, West Richland, Benton and Franklin counties. Richland was the exception, its numbers buoyed by home building at Badger Mountain South. Builders received permits for 109 homes in the first months of the year compared to 78 over the same period in 2024. 'That's a pretty big jump,' Losey said. Development is slowing, but not stopped. Even now, veteran builders are committing to long-planned projects. The Urban Trails along Bob Olson Parkway, near Desert Hills Middle School in Kennewick, is the most recent to break ground. Excavators began carving the 152-acre site into a future neighborhood this spring after securing grading permits from the city. At full development, Urban Trails will add about 1,200 new residences, split between homes, townhomes and up to 750 apartments. It is the brainchild of Mitchell Creer LLC, led buy Britt Creer, president of the Urban Range Group/Ranchland Homes, a busy Tri-Cities land developer and home builder. It has been in the works since at least 2023, when it was conceived as a 1,900-door project. Creer said door-count was curbed, but it still will include a mix of residence types catering to people at every phase of their lives — apartments for young adults, detached homes for growing families, townhomes for downsizing retirees. 'The idea is you never have to leave,' he said. Magallanez, of the Realtors association, said Urban Trails is a welcome twist on the standard subdivision packed with single-family homes. 'As we grow, we either grow up or we'll start to see more mixed use,' he said. 'We need housing at different generational levels.' Rotschy Inc. is the contractor for the grading work at Urban Trails, which involves moving about 700,000 cubic yards of material to create the future neighborhood. Creer said the infrastructure design will be finalized when the grading is done. He intends to apply for permits for the civil infrastructure — roads, utilities, stormwater systems and so forth — later this month. The first 40 lots will be available later this year and apartment designs will be finalized in 2026. Jared Retter of Retter & Co. | Sotheby's International Realty confirmed it expects to represent The Urban Trails to buyers after working with Creer and his partners on other projects, including two West Richland developments — Eagle Pointe Townhomes on Belmont and Western Ridge, a single-family neighborhood that's nearby. There are nearly 11,000 future residential lots in various phases of planning, according to projects tracked by the Tri-City Herald. There's no guarantee any individual proposal will become reality. But collectively, the dozens of planned subdivisions and development sites offer a potent view of future construction in Benton and Franklin counties. The former Lewis and Clark Ranch in West Richland is easily the most ambitious undertaking. The 7,000-acre Frank Tiegs LLC property is already inside the city. The first 800-acre phase would add 3,000 to 4,000 new homes and apartments, according to city planners, who have been working on the proposed development for years.

Attention Costco shoppers: 5 money saving tips and tricks that everyone should know, according to experts
Costco is widely recognized as a go-to for bulk shoppers looking to stock up on food and groceries, home essentials and more. More than 10 million Canadians have Costco memberships that give them access to its gas station, a members-only pharmacy, Costco Travel, Costco Services, home improvement and more. But are shoppers making the most of their memberships to get best deals possible? Nichole Schaubroeck and Tina Chow are two Canadian content creators who have each earned hundreds of thousands of followers by sharing the ins and outs of saving money while you shop. 'It's very hard to find a good deal, so anyway we can save, maybe it's not as extreme as it used to be, it's still good," said Schaubroeck who runs the account Coupon Cutie, in an interview with Yahoo Canada. Keep reading to learn Chow and Schaubroeck's best tips and trips on how to navigate Costco like a pro. According to Schaubroeck, Costco's price tags are a good predictor of whether or not an item will go on sale. Items that end in .97 are likely at their lowest price, making it prime time to stock up on what you need. Another hidden hack is to look for what Costco shoppers call the 'death star,' an asterisk located in the upper right-hand corner of an item's tag. 'All this is telling you is that this item is either no longer going to be at Costco or it won't be back until next year,' said Schaubroeck. Chow, who created the account Costco Lovers Canada, said that although the foot traffic in the store is constantly changing, sales seem to follow a schedule. 'I know that most sales end on a Sunday... new sales will begin the following week,' said Chow. There's also what people refer to online as "Markdown Mondays" — when new items go on sale. While this is not a Costco-official event, it still creates a buzz for shoppers to find cost-friendly deals. 'They [Costco] are always doing markdowns," she added. Additionally, Chow noted that Costco is known for 'following the trends of what's happening in the market,' which can help attract shoppers who are looking for products for a certain occasion. For example, it's not uncommon for Costco to have a sale on hamburger buns, ketchup, mustard and relish ahead of a long weekend. Chow also recommends shopping as the weather changes to take advantage of out-of-season products at lower prices. According to Costco customer service, shoppers are entitled to 'risk-free, 100 per cent satisfaction guarantee', meaning that the majority of purchased products can be returned and refunded at any time (excluding electronics and diamond jewelry). This allows shoppers to test out products and see if it is the right fit for them. 'If I'm going out and trying a $700 Dyson [hair dryer]... I want to be able to know that I can return it,' said Chow. 'I will always go to Costco and pay more on a product for their return policy.' Costco also honours price adjustments on merchandise if the price drops within 30 days of the original purchase and the product is still in the store's warehouse. Schaubroeck added that this flexibility is a large reason as to why Canadians turn to Costco for their shopping. 'It's always nice to have that reassurance when buying something, that no matter what happens, they will take it back for you,' she said. One perk to owning a Costco membership is that it can be used worldwide at any location, which can come in handy when going on vacation. Chow said she often uses her membership when travelling to help save on food and snacks. It's even handy for shopping and saving on souvenirs and local food. Many Costco shoppers may not know that there's an official Costco app meant to enhance shopping experiences. The Costco app allows you to shop and save using online-only prices, check warehouse inventory and local gasoline prices, refill prescriptions at Costco's pharmacy, create your own shopping list in-app and more. The app also allows shoppers to receive updates on sales promotions and product entering the store, a perk that Chow said is a 'huge secret' amongst Canadians. 'There are app-exclusive savings,' she said. 'If you follow Costco on Instagram, there are also exclusive savings available there." Schaubroeck also highlights another app called Checkout 51, a platform that displays cash-back offers on Costco merchandise. While this does not apply to all products, Schaubroeck said it's an incentive worth checking out.

Prediction: This Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock Could Hit a $6 Trillion Valuation by 2030
Nvidia is currently the world's largest company by market cap. The semiconductor giant still has a lot of room for growth, considering the potential investment in artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure over the next five years. Nvidia has additional catalysts coming into play that could allow it to sustain terrific growth and hit a $6 trillion valuation in the future. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is the most valuable company in the world as of this writing, with a market cap of $3.4 trillion, and it has reached this position thanks to a tremendous rally of more than 1,500% in its stock price in the past five years. Investors will now be wondering if Nvidia has the potential to deliver more upside over the next five years following this phenomenal run. However, don't be surprised to see this semiconductor giant's shares jump higher and attain a $6 trillion valuation by the end of the decade. Let's take a closer look at the factors that could help Nvidia hit that milestone by 2030. Robust demand for Nvidia's AI chips has been the biggest reason behind the stock's terrific surge in recent years. The good part is that Nvidia continues to generate a massive amount of revenue from its AI chip business despite tackling headwinds such as export restrictions to key markets like China. This was evident from Nvidia's latest results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 (which ended on April 27). The company's revenue shot up 69% year over year to $44.1 billion during the quarter, even though it lost $2.5 billion in revenue in fiscal Q1, owing to the restrictions on sales of its chips to China. The chipmaker also incurred a $4.5 billion inventory charge to write down the value of chips that were intended for the Chinese market. Moreover, Nvidia's fiscal Q2 revenue would take an $8 billion hit on account of the China-related restrictions. But the good part is that the company's guidance for the current quarter still calls for a 50% year-over-year increase in revenue, while its earnings are expected to increase by 44% despite anticipated loss in Chinese revenue. CEO Jensen Huang admitted on Nvidia's latest earnings conference call that the $50 billion Chinese market is now effectively closed to U.S. players such as Nvidia. Even then, analysts have increased their revenue estimates. That's not surprising, as Nvidia still has a massive sales opportunity in AI chips beyond the Chinese market. It is now entering new markets such as Saudi Arabia to build AI factories "powered by several hundred thousand of Nvidia's most advanced GPUs over the next five years," according to the company. Additionally, massive AI infrastructure projects such as Stargate, from which Nvidia has started benefiting already, could help it mitigate the lost opportunity in China. Management consulting firm McKinsey & Company predicts that AI-capable data centers could require investments worth a whopping $5.2 trillion by 2030 to build enough computing power to handle training and inference workloads. So investors would do well to look past the China-related problems that Nvidia is currently facing, as the broader opportunity in the AI data center market should be lucrative enough to help the chipmaker keep growing at a healthy pace for the next five years. Moreover, Nvidia is showing no signs of losing its grip over the AI chip market. Its data center revenue shot up an impressive 73% year over year to $39 billion in the previous quarter. That was miles ahead of Broadcom's $4 billion AI revenue and AMD's $3.7 billion data center sales in the previous quarter, the two chipmakers that are considered to be the closest to Nvidia in the AI chip race. Nvidia's data center growth was higher than the 57% growth recorded by AMD in this segment and close to the 77% growth in Broadcom's AI revenue, even though it has a much larger revenue base. This is a testament to just how popular Nvidia's AI chips are, with the company's latest generation of Blackwell processors already a major hit among cloud computing giants within two quarters of hitting the market. Even better, Nvidia has moved past just selling AI hardware. It also offers access to models that help customers train and deploy AI agents, along with other enterprise AI applications that allow customers to improve the efficiency of their large language models (LLMs). Its enterprise platforms are gaining traction in diverse industries such as cybersecurity and restaurants where companies are deploying Nvidia's solutions to streamline their operations or to build agentic AI applications. All this indicates that investors shouldn't miss the forest for the trees, as Nvidia's long-term prospects aren't dependent on just China. There is still a lot of room for growth in the AI chip market, and the company's diversification into other areas such as enterprise AI applications and automotive should be enough to power remarkable growth over the next five years. Nvidia is currently trading at 23 times sales. While that's three times the U.S. technology sector's average price-to-sales ratio, the company's dominant position in AI chips, the prospects of this market, and the other catalysts that are coming into play help justify that valuation. We have already seen in the chart that Nvidia's top line is expected to jump to $292 billion in three years. If it maintains its sales multiple at that time, it will be able to easily surpass a $6 trillion valuation in just three years, representing a big jump from current levels. However, if we assume Nvidia's top-line growth slows after fiscal 2028 to an annual rate of 15% in fiscal 2029 and 2030 from the 31% compound annual growth rate that it is forecast to clock between fiscal 2026 and 2028 (using fiscal 2025 revenue of $130.5 billion as the base), its annual revenue could jump to $386 billion after five years. If Nvidia trades at a discounted 15 times sales at that time, it could still hit a $6 trillion valuation by 2030. So, investors can still consider buying this AI stock in anticipation of more upside in the long run, as it seems capable of maintaining its healthy growth rate over the next five years.
