NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

TORONTO, Nov. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Water Ways Technologies Inc. (TSXV: WWT) (FRA: WWT) (“Water Ways” or the “Company“), a global provider of Israeli-based agriculture technology, providing water irrigation solutions to agricultural producers, announces the filing of its Interim Financial Statements (the “Statements“) and Managements Discussion and Analysis (the “MD&A“) for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2023. A comprehensive discussion of Water Ways’ financial position and results of operations is provided in the MD&A, filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com)

Mr. Ohad Haber, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Water Ways states: We are still in the process of shifting our business to North America. I am very please that we have improved our overall performance after significant cost cuts we made in recent months.

Highlights Q1 through to Q3, 2023 (the following information should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified by, the Statements and the MD&A)

  • Company’s sales were CAD$8.1M for the nine months period ended September 30, 2023, compared to CAD$12.1M for the nine months period ended September 30, 2022. The decline in revenues continues to be attributed to three factors. Firstly, the Company’s strategic decision to discontinue working with unprofitable and unstable customers and territories played a significant role. Instead, the Company shifted its focus to developed countries. This deliberate change in focus and customer restructuring ultimately resulted in a decrease in the Company’s revenues. Secondly, the reduction in revenues can also be attributed to the effects of stagnation and inflation. These factors greatly impacted customers, making it more difficult for them to invest in projects and capital goods. Consequently, customers are encountering challenges in acquiring goods for inventory, a situation different from previous years. Additionally, they are facing obstacles in financing their projects due to the impact on increased interest rates and borrowing costs. Thirdly, global climate changes, especially in Canada, have contributed to lower-than-expected sales of Silage products.
  • Company’s Gross Margin was 16.5% for the nine months period ended September 30, 2023, compared to a Gross Margin of 17.8% for the nine months period ended September 30, 2022.
  • Company reduced its marketing and general and administrative expenses by 25% for the nine months period ended September 30, 2023, compared with September 30, 2022.
  • Derivative Liability – Warrants and Convertible Debentures relates to a classification under IFRS of outstanding warrants issued as part of private placements of Convertible Debentures units and equity units which closed in the fiscal year 2021, 2022 and 2023, as a non-cash liability that arises due to the difference in exercise price currency and functional currency. This liability is revalued each period by an independent third party. The change in fair value is charged through the Company’s profit and loss statement.
