All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this Quarterly Report, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “outlook,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “can,” the negatives thereof, variations thereon and other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. Forward-looking statements are based on certain estimates, beliefs, expectations and assumptions made in light of management’s experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that may be appropriate.

Forward-looking statements necessarily involve unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and the instructions to Form10-Q and Article 10 of RegulationS-X and, accordingly, the Financial Statements do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, the Financial Statements contain all adjustments necessary, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, for a fair statement of its financial position as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 and 2018.2019. The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2018,2019, was derived from audited annual financial statements but does not contain all of the footnote disclosures from the annual financial statements. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 20182019 and 20172018 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 20182019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 of10-K. The Company adopted new accounting standards relating to credit losses and cloud computing effective January 1, 2020. Further information on these standards and the impact on the Company as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Asof these standards is described in Note 3, the Company adopted a new accounting standard for leases in the current year, which had a material impact on the Financial Statements.4.

In these Financial Statements, unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States (“U.S.”) dollars. DIRTT’s financial results are consolidated in Canadian dollars, the Company’s functional currency, and the Company has adopted the U.S. dollar as its reporting currency. All references to US$ or $ are to U.S. dollars and references to C$ are to Canadian dollars.

Principles of consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of DIRTT and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances, income and expenses, unrealized gains and losses and dividends resulting from intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

Basis of measurement

These Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost convention except for certain financial instruments and certain components of stock-based compensation that are measured at fair value. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets. The Company’s quarterly tax provision is based upon an estimated annual effective tax rate.

Seasonality

Sales of the Company’s products are driven by consumer and industrial demand for interior construction solutions. The timing of customer’s construction projects can be influenced by a number of factors including the prevailing economic climate and weather. Seasonality

3. COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization and has had extraordinary and rapid negative impacts on global societies, workplaces, economies and health systems. The impact of construction results in demand for the Company’s solutions to be typically strongerCOVID-19 on DIRTT’s business in the thirdnear and fourth quarters comparedmid-term remains uncertain. The resulting adverse economic conditions are expected to negatively impact construction activity in the near term at the very least, with potential significant negative impacts extending to the first half of 2021 and secondbeyond.

While many construction sites remain open and re-opening strategies have been implemented across North America, certain projects currently underway are experiencing delays, impacted by both the implementation of social distancing and other safety related measures and the re-emergence of COVID-19 in certain geographic areas. The timing and pace of economic recovery, or the resumption of construction activity and related demand, is not possible to predict nor its impact on achievement of DIRTT’s business objectives.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty can be found in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. COVID-19 has increased the complexity of estimates and assumptions used to prepare the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, particularly related to the following key sources of estimation uncertainty:

Credit risk

COVID-19 may cause DIRTT’s Distribution Partners to experience liquidity issues and this may result in higher expected credit losses or slower collections. Management estimated the impact of expected credit losses and increased the provision by $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2020 (see Note 5). Management will continue to reassess the impact of COVID-19 on Distribution Partners in subsequent periods and the estimation of such credit losses is complex because of limited historical precedent for the current economic situation. In addition, we acquired trade credit insurance effective April 1, 2020.

Liquidity risk

The Company may have lower cash flows from operating activities available to service debts due to lower sales or collections. Information about our credit facilities is presented in Note 6.

Government subsidies

As part of the Canadian federal government’s COVID-19 Economic Response Plan, the Canadian government established the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (“CEWS”). As originally implemented, the CEWS provides the Company with a taxable subsidy of up to 75% of wages paid to Canadian employees during the periods extending from March 15, 2020 to June 6, 2020 (subsequently extended to August 29, 2020), provided that certain Canadian-sourced revenues decline by over 15 – 30%, computed generally on the basis of monthly revenues year-over-year during the available periods.

The Company reviews its fiscal year.eligibility for the CEWS for each qualifying period. The Company accounts for such government subsidies on an accrual basis when the conditions for eligibility are met. The Company has adopted an accounting policy to present government subsidies as other income. An optional accounting policy would be to net consideration received with the related expenses on the statement of operations.

3.Impairment

At June 30, 2020, our market capitalization was less than the book value of our equity which is a potential indicator of impairment. For the first quarter of 2020, management compared forecasted undiscounted cash flows to the book values of non-current assets and determined an impairment provision was not required. At June 30, 2020 management determined an impairment provision was not required as our outlook had improved since our initial assessment and our share price has increased. The impact of COVID-19 on DIRTT’s Distribution Partners or the Company’s operations may change cash flows and impact the recoverability of our assets in the future. Furthermore, COVID-19 and its related economic and social impacts are rapidly evolving and may affect our ability to accurately use historical sales trends and cash flows to forecast future results leading to additional estimation uncertainty with respect to impairment testing.

Deferred tax assets (“DTA”)

The Company’s ability to generate future taxable income may be impacted by COVID-19 which creates additional uncertainty regarding the recoverability of DTAs. To the extent additional taxable losses are generated, this may present significant unfavorable evidence of recoverability of DTAs and require the Company to recognize valuation allowances against DTA.

4. ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In February 2016,On January 1, 2020, the FASB issuedCompany adopted ASUNo. 2016-02,2016-13, “Leases“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 842),326): Measurement of Credit Losses in Financial Instruments” and issuedthe subsequent amendments to the initial guidance issued in January 2018 within ASUNo. 2018-01, in July 2018 within ASUNos. 2018-10 and2018-11, in December 2018 within ASUNo. 2018-20, and in MarchApril 2019 within ASUNo. 2019-012019-04, (collectively, the standard). The standard requires lessees to recognize operating leases on the balance sheet as aMay 2019 within ASU right-of-useNo. 2019-05 and February 2020 within ASU No. 2020-02 (“ROU”ASU 326”). These ASUs replace the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) assetmethodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance and net investments in leases recognized by a lease liability. The liability is equallessor in accordance with Topic 842 on Leases. In addition, ASC 326 made changes to the present value of the lease payments over the remaining lease term. The asset is based on the liability, subject to certain adjustments. Operating leases result in straight-line expense.accounting for available-for-sale debt securities.

The Company adopted ASC 326 using the standard onmodified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019, and elected the transition method of adoption, which allowed the Company to apply the standard as of the beginning of the2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period of adoption, the comparative period presented is not adjusted and continuesamounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable accounting principles generally accepted in the Company’s historical accounting policy.United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company opted to elect the packageadoption of practical expedients tothis standard did not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs, and certain other practical expedients, including the use of hindsight to determine the lease term for existing leases and in assessing impairment of theright-of-use asset, and the exception for short-term leases.

Adoption of the standard hadhave a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidatedCompany, and no adjustment was required to retained earnings as of January 1, 2020 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 326.

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2018-15, “Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract” which amends ASC 350-40,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software” (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 clarifies that if a company has the contractual right to take possession of the hosted software at any time during the hosting period without incurring a significant penalty and if a company can feasibly run the software on its own hardware or contract with a third party unrelated to the vendor to host the software, the arrangement is not impacted by ASU 2018-15. If both these conditions are not met, ASU 2018-15 deems the hosting arrangement to be a service contract. The capitalization criteria for implementation costs of a service contract are consistent with the requirements of ASC 350-40 and impairment will be assessed consistent with policies applied to long lived assets. However, these capitalized implementation costs will be amortized over the life of the hosting arrangement and will be classified in the balance sheet due toand statement of operations in the recognition of aright-of-use asset and lease liability, as shown in Note 4, upon adoption.

4. LEASESsame lines where software license costs are accounted for.

The Company leases officeadopted this amendment using the prospective transition approach, and factory space under various operating leases.no adjustments were required as a result of adoption.

5. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not require collateral and do not bear interest. The Company determines ifestimates an arrangement is a lease or contains a lease elementallowance for credit losses using the lifetime expected credit loss at inception. The arrangement is a lease if it conveys the righteach measurement date taking into account historical credit loss experience as well as forward-looking information in order to the Companyestablish rates for each class of financial receivable with similar risk characteristics. Adjustments to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Operating leases are separately disclosed as operating lease ROU assets, with a corresponding lease liability split between current and long-term components on the balance sheet. Operating leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not included on the balance sheet.

The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilitiesthis estimate are recognized at commencement date basedin the statement of operations.

In order to manage and assess our risk, management maintains credit policies that include regular review of credit limits of individual receivables and systematic monitoring of aging of trade receivables and the financial wellbeing of our customers. In addition, we acquired trade credit insurance effective April 1, 2020. At June 30, 2020, approximately 80% of our trade accounts receivable are insured, relating to accounts receivables from counterparties deemed creditworthy by the insurer and excluding accounts receivable from government entities, that have arisen since April 1, 2020. Our trade balances are spread over a broad Distribution Partner base, which is geographically dispersed. No Distribution Partner accounts for greater than 10% of revenue. In addition, and where possible, we collect a 50% deposit on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company gives consideration to instruments with similar characteristics when calculating its incremental borrowing rate. The Company’s operating leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 12 years. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonablysales, excluding government and certain that the Company will exercise that option.other clients.

RSUs

On June 17, 2020, the Company granted 2,578,971 RSUs. Of the RSUs granted, 2,378,971 RSUs have an aggregate time-based vesting period of three years and vest one third every year over a three-year period from the date of grant. At the end of a three-year term, the RSUs will be settled by way of the provision of cash or shares to employees (or a combination thereof), at the discretion of the Company. The fair value of the RSUs was determined to be C$1.89, which was the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares on the grant date.

Of the RSUs granted, 200,000 RSUs were granted to an executive with service and performance-based conditions for vesting (the “Performance RSUs”). If the Company’s share price increases to C$3.00 for 20 consecutive trading days within three years of the grant date, then 50% (100,000) of the Performance RSUs will vest at the end of the three-year service period. If the Company’s share price increases to C$4.00 for 20 consecutive trading days within three years of the grant date, 100% (200,000) of the Performance RSUs will vest at the end of the three-year service period. If the Company’s share price increases to C$6.00 for 20 consecutive trading days within three years of the grant date, then 150% (300,000) of the Performance RSUs will vest at the end of the three-year service period. The grant date fair value of the Performance RSUs were valued using the Monte Carlo valuation method and determined to have a weighted average grant date fair value of C$1.70.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing in this Quarterly Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations and estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those described under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Outlook

InWe have revised our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Gross Profit, non-GAAP financial measures, for the third quarter of 2019, we continued to focus on our plan to transform the Company into a scalable growth platform to drive market penetration and improve profitability. Our plan focuses on developing and implementing an efficient and effective sales and marketing function, improving manufacturing efficiency and increasing capacity to serve future growth. Concurrently, we remain committed to innovation within our primary solutions and related complementary offerings, (“DIRTT Solutions”), including the introduction of new products and enhancements to existing products and our proprietary ICE Software platform (“ICE” or “ICE Software”).

Management began 2019 with the expectation that our 2019 revenue growth year-over-year would be more moderate than the 22% revenue growth shown in 2018 IFRS resultspresented periods compared to 2017 IFRS results primarily as a result of our management transition and our efforts to scale the Company for sustained, profitable growth. Accordingly, we estimated and announced that our 2019 IFRS revenue would be 5% to 10% higher than 2018 IFRS revenue, with corresponding increases in net incomecomparable prior periods. For additional information, see “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures – EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. With increasing recognitionEBITDA for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.” and “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures – Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.”

Summary of challenges associated withFinancial Results

Revenue for the overall management changes andquarter ended June 30, 2020 was $42.2 million, a decline of $21.9 million or 34% from $64.1 million for the immature naturequarter ended June 30, 2019. Revenue decreased by 36% to $83.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $129.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. We believe the decline is principally related to the ongoing effects of disruptions in our sales activity levels stemming from the transitional state of our commercial function as we revised that expectation downward asimplement our strategic plan combined with project delays or deferrals due mainly to impacts of the year progressed. In addition, we previously stated that we expected Adjusted EBITDACOVID-19 pandemic on construction schedules.

Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $14.2 million or 33.7% of revenue, a decline of $10.2 million or 42%from $24.4 million or 38.1% of revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Gross profit margin decreased to be impacted by certainone-time costs related30.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 37.2% for the salessix months ended June 30, 2019. This reduction was attributable to our decline in revenues and marketing plan, Nasdaq listing, and operating consulting costs. Management now expects 2019 revenue in U.S. GAAP to be 7% to 10% lower than 2018 U.S. GAAP revenue, which equates to estimated fourth quarter revenue of between $52 million and $60 million. Management also expects Adjusted EBITDA to be negatively impacted by deleveragingthe impact of fixed costs on lower revenue.

Revenuerevenues and during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, we incurred $0.5 million and $1.0 million of severance costs, respectively, offset by a $1.2 million timber provision reversal in thirdthe second quarter of $65.42020, following the validation of an in situ remediation solution that enabled us to meet certain building code specifications under which certain projects were sold, thereby significantly reducing the prior estimated timber liability. Additionally, the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 include $0.5 million and $2.0 million of costs, respectively, incurred to mitigate future tile warping.

Adjusted Gross Profit (see “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was 12%$16.1 million or 38.2% of revenue, a $10.9 million or 40% decline from $27.0 million or 42.1% of revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Adjusted Gross Profit (see “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $31.7 million or 38.1% of revenue, a $21.1 million or 40% decline from $52.8 million or 40.9% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Declines in Adjusted Gross Profit for both periods are for the reasons noted above. Excluded from Adjusted Gross Profit in the six months ended June 30, 2020 are $2.0 million of overhead costs associated with operating at lower than 2018. Several factors continuenormal capacity levels, which were charged directly and separately to impact 2019 revenue, includingcost of sales rather than as a cost attributable to production. Between January and April, 2020, we reduced our manufacturing workforce by 25% to bring labor capacity in line with current activity levels.

Net income for the disruptionquarter ended June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million, compared to our salesforcenet income of $2.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in net income is attributable to the above noted reduction in gross profit and distribution partner network from 2018’s management transition, the impact of an immaturego-to-market approach, an inadequately supported sales force working on a long sales cycle as well as the revised timing of various projects and the$0.5 million increase in foreign exchange loss, of certain expected projects. As the year has progressed, it has become clear the sales and marketing organization with which we entered the year has been unable to deliver upon the opportunities that it identified and on which the prior guidance was based. This has been driven largelypartially offset by a historical lack$2.5 million reduction in operating expenses and $4.3 million of training, individual accountability andgovernment subsidies. The reduction in operating expenses reflects lower commissions on reduced sales activities, the necessary processes and tools. Our belief in the sizecombination of our market opportunity remains unchanged as well as the resonance$1.3 million of DIRTT’s value proposition within it. Accordingly, we have embarked on a comprehensive transformation of these functions that we believe will create a scalable platform from whichcosts related to generate profitable growth.

We took significant first steps in this commercial transformation in the third quarter. We began implementing our comprehensive commercial strategy based on a sales and marketing plan (the “Sales & Marketing Plan”and $0.4 million of costs related to the listing of our common shares on Nasdaq in 2019 that did not recur, other cost reductions both deliberate and as a consequence of the pandemic, offset by higher legal costs of $0.9 million and an increase in stock based compensation of $2.1 million.

Net loss increased to $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Compared to the prior year period, the increase in net loss is attributable to the above noted reduction in gross profit, partially offset by a $10.5 million reduction in operating costs, government subsidies of $4.3 million, increased foreign exchange gains of $2.3 million and $1.2 million of income tax recoveries.

The reduction in operating expenses reflects lower commissions on reduced sales activities, the combination of $1.3 million of costs related to our sales and marketing plan, $1.1 million related to the listing of our common shares on Nasdaq and $2.6 million of reorganization costs in 2019 that did not recur, other cost reductions both deliberate and as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic and a $3.9 million decrease in stock based compensation, offset by higher legal costs of $3.0 million.

Adjusted EBITDA (see “– Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 was $0.3 million or 0.6% of revenue, a decline of $5.8 million from $6.0 million, or 9.4% of revenue, for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was a $5.2 million loss or (6.3)% of revenue, a decline of $19.0 million from $13.8 million, or 10.7% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Reductions for the quarter and year-to-date periods were due to the above noted reasons. We changed our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019 to exclude the impacts of foreign exchange to improve year-on-year comparability of Adjusted EBITDA. We also changed our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA beginning in the second quarter of 2020 to exclude the impact of government subsidies.

Outlook

On November 12, 2019, DIRTT unveiled a four-year strategic plan for the Company, based on three key pillars: commercial execution, manufacturing excellence and innovation. This plan laid out a roadmap to transform a founder-led start-up into a professionally managed operating company. Our long-term objective is to scale our operations to profitably capture the significant market opportunity created by driving conversion from conventional construction to DIRTT’s process of modular, prefabricated interiors.

In the second quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact our business, specifically causing job site closures in certain jurisdictions, schedule delays resulting from labor restrictions and supply chain shortages on job sites and project deferrals due to economic uncertainty. Late in the first quarter of 2020 and early in the second quarter of 2020, we took decisive actions to ensure employee safety, to right-size our plant labor capacity and our overall cost structure consistent with current activity levels and to increase our available liquidity. These steps allowed us to continue moving forward with our strategic plan, while re-prioritizing the execution of certain aspects of our commercial strategy to reduce or defer specific costs and capital expenditures while still realizing the majority of the benefits derived from the plan.

Second quarter 2020 revenue of $42.2 million was slightly higher than first quarter 2020 revenue. While construction activity on existing projects has continued, the pace of construction has slowed with new social distancing and infection control requirements constraining onsite labor. As DIRTT projects are typically installed at the later stage of the construction process, these job site delays impacted our second quarter results, although the exact amount is difficult to quantify given our short lead times. We estimate approximately $3.7 million of projects that was developedwe were confident of second quarter delivery at March 15 were deferred to future quarters in addition to opportunities that we believe would normally have come to fruition that were delayed or deferred, the amount of which is not possible to quantify. These delays are expected to continue to impact us through the remainder of 2020 as the industry adjusts to the COVID-19 pandemic and the exact timing of the completion of these projects is uncertain.

We believe that the long-term impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business have the potential to be positive, accelerating the shift to modular construction and DIRTT’s product suite. Forced reductions in onsite labor due to social distancing may adversely impact construction schedules and cost, accelerating the trend towards offsite manufacturing and consolidation of subtrade activities. Additionally, increased focus on infection control and risk mitigation in the office environment has the potential to require reduced density, increased use of private offices and other separation strategies all of which could increase the per square foot content of DIRTT solutions. At the same time, work environments will need to evolve with the assistancecircumstances potentially increasing demand for the flexibility inherent in the modular aspect of an internationally recognized consulting firm. DIRTT’s offerings. We would anticipate all these factors to favorably affect our healthcare and education clients, in addition to commercial clients.

The totalrealization of any potential benefits is uncertain and we caution that the near and mid-term impacts of COVID-19 remain highly uncertain and regionally dependent. While the re-opening of economies has commenced in many jurisdictions, the resurgence in infection rates could delay or even reverse these re-opening activities, adversely affecting interior construction activity. Our customers are taking a measured approach to modifying their offices in reaction to COVID-19, therefore any potential positive impact on our sales would be anticipated to follow that modulated timing. In addition, COVID-19 has had a negative financial impact on many healthcare organizations, potentially materially reducing their construction budgets for new facilities and facility renovations. It has also caused a pause in some building programs as healthcare providers re-examine their patient delivery models and the impact on their physical space. Educational institutions are also facing budget challenges. Finally, a decline in overall commercial construction activity from a general economic contraction could negatively impact our sales.

As the timing and pace of economic recovery and the fulsome effect of COVID-19 on the economy remains uncertain, we are actively managing our cost base. We have benefited from both deliberate cost reductions as well as deferrals that are a direct result of travel and other such shelter in place restrictions. As economies begin to developreopen, we expect that we will begin to incur travel and entertainment expenditures as in-person sales activities resume, although the Sales & Marketing Plan was $2.0 million,timing and amount of which $0.7 million was incurredis indeterminable at this time.

Within the commercial function, we continued to broaden our Distribution Partner network, and welcomed five new Distribution Partners in the United States since our last reporting date, one in each of our west, south and north east regions and two in the central region, and have ended our relationships with three underperforming Distribution Partners. In an innovative response to travel restrictions, we successfully onboarded these Distribution Partners via virtual training programs. We hosted several virtual client tours of DIRTT in June and expect to leverage these tours aggressively within the sales organization in the months to come. In Chicago, construction of our DIRTT Experience Center continued and we anticipate that it will be ready for in-person client tours, with enhanced safety protocols, in the third quarter of 2019. Key components2020.

From a systems perspective, we successfully rolled out phase one of the Sales & Marketing Plan consist of establishing a strategic marketing function and enhancing sales and performance management. Implementing the strategic marketing function includes the hiring of additional marketing professionals to newly established roles, the implementation of supporting systems and the creation of marketing programs and communications to drive lead generation. Sales force enhancement includes creating new sales management roles to provide support to sales representatives, creating new sales roles to manage strategic national accounts and address large project opportunities and

implementing a newly createdour Client Relationship Management (“CRM”) system. The commercial (salesSystem which coincides with the launch of DIRTT’s first ever comprehensive strategic marketing campaign, “Make space for possibilitiesTM”. This campaign seeks to demonstrate how DIRTT solutions meet the evolving needs of individuals, teams and marketing) function will be ledorganizations seeking greater adaptability within their workplaces and real estate portfolios. We remain on schedule to deliver a total cost of ownership tool, which is expected to go live in the fourth quarter of 2020. These initiatives are expected to significantly enhance our sales efforts by our new Chief Commercial Officer, Jennifer Warawa, who started this role effective September 16, 2019, and the execution of the Sales & Marketing Plan will be managed by Brandon Jones, our new Vice President of Strategy, who started in this role effective September 30, 2019.demonstrating to potential end-customers DIRTT’s value proposition relative to conventional construction.

InWithin our manufacturing operations, our safety culture is now well ingrained resulting in a metric-based approachrecordable incident rate for the first half of the year below 1.0 and more than 75% below industry standards. The next stage of improvement is focused on driving sustained quality improvements. We are pleased to lean manufacturing, focusing on Safety, Quality, Delivery, Inventorynote that we have seen continued improvements in quality and, Productivity (SQDIP) was introduced earlier this year and is being implemented in the second quarter of 2020, all of our facilities along with related systems.plants exceeded their performance goals of a 50% reduction in deficiencies relative to 2019. We are now embarking on the process of improving the efficiency and cost effectiveness of our manufacturing operations. In early October 2019,the second quarter of 2020, we executed a lease agreement forsuccessfully piloted one-piece flow manufacturing in our previously announced combined tile and millworkSavannah factory which will be locatedachieved significant efficiency improvements in our aluminum frame manufacturing process. We are now expanding these processes to our other plants. We are also in the Charlotte metropolitan area. In August 2019,process of implementing improvements within our supply chain and procurement processes and the benefits are expected to be realized over time as lower cost material flows through our raw material inventory.

At our South Carolina Plant, construction of the base building is largely complete and in July 2020 we paid deposits totaling $1.6 millionreceived our first shipment of equipment. We expect to certainreceive the balance of the equipment suppliers for customized equipment for the new facility, which we anticipate will be delivered in the second half of 2020. The total cost2020 and are on track for commissioning for this facility in the first half of 2021.

Our focus on liquidity and cash preservation has been effective. In the second quarter, we completed the definitive documentation for our previously announced six-month covenant holiday on our credit facility and drew C$3.6 million ($2.6 million) of the Canadian leasing facility to fund 2019 Canadian equipment purchases. In the event activity levels remain at current levels, we will likely seek an extension to the covenant holiday or replace our facility with an asset backed facility. The U.S. leasing facility will be used to fund the equipment purchases for our new South Carolina Plant, with funding of the equipment, including $4.7 million of deposits paid in 2019, now expected in the late third and fourth quarter when the equipment is delivered and accepted on site. We also qualified for an approximately $4.3 million taxable wage subsidy under the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy program from the Canadian government for the April to June period. Of this amount, $1.6 million was received in June with the balance expected to be approximately $18.5 million, and we anticipate thatreceived in the commencement of commercial operations will begin during the first quarter of 2021.

On October 9, 2019, we commenced trading of our common shares on The Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”).third quarter. As a result, we finished the second quarter with net working capital of the Nasdaq listing, we are now reporting our financial statements under the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and in U.S. dollars. In addition, we ceased offering a$52.2 million, including cash surrender option for employee stock options.Year-to-dateone-time costsbalances of the Nasdaq listing are approximately $2.5$44.6 million, and we expectcompared to incur approximately $0.5$51.0 million of additional costs in the fourth quarternet working capital including $43.5 million of 2019. The Nasdaq listing costs are higher than previously anticipated, due in part to our deferral of the listing until later in the year.

In the second half of 2018, we experienced warping in a small portion of our medium density fiberboard tiles, primarily in locations that experience high humidity or significant variability in humidity and temperature. We believe we have identified a permanent solution to the issue and continue to implement the solution to address the tile warping.

As we have noted previously, 2019 is a transition year, and we have made significant strides toward enhancing our management team, commercial organization and sales and marketing strategy, in addition to having our shares listed on Nasdaq. Despite incurring associatedone-time consulting and listing costs, we expect to exit 2019 maintaining our financial strength with cash on hand comparable to last year with no debt and increased liquidity from a larger credit facility. Furthermore, we continue to believe our significant transformational efforts and investments will result in attractive revenue growth, improved profitability and strong cash generation into the future.

At our Analyst Day on November 12, 2019 in New York City we will present our strategic plan and revenue and Adjusted EBITDA Margin targets we are working to achieve by the end of 2023.at March 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Note Regarding Use ofNon-GAAP Financial Measures

Our condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These GAAP financial statements includenon-cash charges and other charges and benefits that we believe are unusual or infrequent in nature or that we believe may make comparisons to our prior or future performance difficult.

As a result, we also provide financial information in this Quarterly Report that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to the information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses thesenon-GAAP financial measures in its review and evaluation of the financial performance of the Company. We believe that thesenon-GAAP financial measures also provide additional insight to investors and securities analysts as supplemental information to our GAAP results and as a basis to compare our financial performance from period toover period and to compare our financial performance with that of other companies. We believe that thesenon-GAAP financial measures facilitate comparisons of our core operating results from period to period and to other companies by removing the effects of our capital structure

(net (net interest income on cash deposits, interest expense on outstanding debt and debt facilities, or foreign exchange movements on debt revaluation)movements), asset base (depreciation and amortization), the impact of under-utilized capacity on gross profit, tax consequences and stock-based compensation. In addition, management bases certain forward-looking estimates and budgets onnon-GAAP financial measures, primarily Adjusted EBITDA.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, we removed the impact of all foreign exchange from Adjusted EBITDA. Foreign exchange gains and losses can vary significantly period-to-period due to the impact of changes in the U.S. and Canadian dollar exchange rates on foreign currency denominated monetary items on the balance sheet and are not reflective of the underlying operations of the Company. We have presented a reconciliation to our prior calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the quarters presented. Additionally, since the fourth quarter of 2019, we have excluded from Adjusted Gross Profit costs associated with under-utilized capacity. Fixed production overheads are allocated to inventory on the basis of normal capacity of the production facilities. In periods where production levels are abnormally low, unallocated overheads are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. In the second quarter of 2020, we also removed the impact of government subsidies from Adjusted EBITDA.

Reorganization expenses, impairment expenses,government subsidies, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense, and foreign exchange gains and losses are excluded from ournon-GAAP financial measures because management considers them to be outside of the Company’s core operating results, even though some of those expenses may recur, and because management believes that each of these items can distort the trends associated with the Company’s ongoing performance. We believe that excluding these expenses provides investors and management with greater visibility to the underlying performance of the business operations, enhances consistency and comparativeness with results in prior periods that do not, or future periods that may not, include such items, and facilitates comparison with the results of other companies in our industry.

The followingnon-GAAP financial measures are presented in this Quarterly Report, and a description of the calculation for each measure is included.

You should carefully evaluate thesenon-GAAP financial measures, the adjustments included in them, and the reasons we consider them appropriate for analysis supplemental to our GAAP information. Each of thesenon-GAAP financial measures has important limitations as an analytical tool due to exclusion of some but not all items that affect the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. You should not consider any of thesenon-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. You should also be aware that we may recognize income or incur expenses in the future that are the same as, or similar to, some of the adjustments in thesenon-GAAP financial measures. Because thesenon-GAAP financial measures may be defined differently by other companies in our industry, our definitions of thesenon-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

Gross profit and gross profit margin decreased to $25.5 million or 40.7%30.7% for the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018.2020, from $48.0 million or 37.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin decreased to $27.3$16.1 million or 41.8%38.2% for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, from $32.5$27.0 million or 44.0%42.1% for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018. The decreases are largely due to an increase in unused labor capacity and reduced fixed cost leverage on lower revenue levels. Reductions in direct material and transportation costs, due to improved efficiency and product mix, offset the higher material costs of $0.8 million (1.0% reduction in gross profit margin) that mitigate the tile warping issue.

Gross profit and gross profit margin decreased to $73.0 million, or 37.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, from $79.4 million or 39.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.2019. Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit Margin decreased to $80.1$31.7 million or 41.2%38.1% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, from $86.6$52.8 million or 43.2%40.9% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018. 2019. The decreases are largely due to reduced fixed cost leverage due to reductions in revenues and excess labor capacity prior to headcount reductions discussed below combined with approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million of related severance costs in the second quarter and year to date periods of 2020, respectively.

During the period,fourth quarter of 2019, we incurred $2.8determined that we were carrying abnormal excess capacity in our manufacturing facilities as a result of the slowdown in sales and determined certain production overheads should be directly expensed in cost of sales, representing production overheads that were not attributable to production. In the first quarter of 2020, we separately classified $2.0 million of incrementalas costs (1.1% reduction inrelated to our under-utilized capacity (5% of gross profit margin) in cost of sales. We took steps to manage our excess capacity, including the reduction in staffing by 14%, with a further 12% reduction in April 2020, and the undertaking of planned factory curtailments. The staffing reductions realigned our capacity with then expected activity levels; however, our fixed costs will affect our Adjusted Gross Profit Margin which we expect to remain below historical percentages until sales improve. Prospectively, we expect our fixed cost of sales to be approximately $6.0 million per quarter, and remaining costs of sales to be approximately 54% of revenues comprising materials which are variable, and labor which is quasi-variable as we match our shifts to order volumes.

Following the completion of third-party testing in 2019, we determined that mitigatetimber included in certain projects installed between 2016 and 2019 potentially did not meet the tile warping issuefire-retardant specifications under which the projects were sold. As a result, we recorded a $2.5 million provision in the fourth quarter of 2019 and $3.0have been contacting customers to determine whether remedial actions are required. In the second quarter of 2020, we identified and validated an in-situ solution that we believe will meet the fire-retardant specification under which the projects were sold. As a result, we have reduced the associated provision to $1.2 million which represents expected costs to prepare impacted sites and apply the in-situ solution. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred $0.1 million of costs associated with headcount additions throughout 2018 in anticipationremediating previously installed timber projects, which were recorded against the provision.

In the first six months of higher volumes. We also experienced a $0.72019 we incurred approximately $2.0 million reduction inof costs, representing 1.6% of gross profit margin, to mitigate future warping of our tiles. In the first quarter of 2020 we commissioned new equipment to prime our medium density fiberboard (“MDF”). The use of primed MDF addressed the tile warping issues that occurred in late 2018 and early 2019 due to decreaseshigher than expected moisture absorption. Additionally, our costs associated with remediating deficiencies decreased in second quarter gross profit on installation revenue. These cost increases were partially offset by the benefitsfirst half of the operational improvement activities as previously described. We expect to further realize benefits from these activities as the year progresses.2020.

During the third quarter of 2018, we determined that we no longer qualified as a Foreign Private Issuer (“FPI”) as of June 30, 2018, under the rules of the SEC. To minimize any undue effects on employees, our Board of Directors approved the availability of a cash surrender feature for certain options until such time as we requalified as a FPI or we registered our common shares with the SEC, which occurred on October 9, 2019 upon our listing on Nasdaq. Accordingly, we accounted for the fair value of outstanding stock options at the end of the reporting period as a liability, with changes in the liability recorded through net income as a stock-based compensation fair value adjustment. Adjusted Net Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 removes the stock option fair value adjustment, because this accounting charge is material and not comparable to prior year charges. As a result, the change in the permitted manner of settlement will trigger a change in the accounting for the plan and result in the recognition of the Option Plan as equity settled awards prospectively from October 9, 2019.

Revenue

Revenue reflects sales to our Distribution Partners for resale to their clients and, in limited circumstances, our direct sales to clients. Our revenue is generally affected by the timing of when orders are executed, particularly large orders, which can add variability to our financial results and shift revenue between quarters.

Revenue decreased in the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 by $8.5$21.9 million and $46.1 million or 12%34% and 36% respectively compared to the same periodperiods of 2018.2019. Revenue decreased due to several factors including the impactas discussed above in “– Summary of Financial Results” and “– Outlook”. We have been subject to a large projectdisruption in sales activity levels particularly as it relates to larger projects, as discussed below, beginning in 2018 that was not replaced in 2019. We also believeand carrying through the current quarter. This disruption stems from the distraction fromof significant management changes during 2018 on a long sales cycle combined with the immature and transitional state of our sales and marketing function, which limited our ability to take advantage of growth opportunities in our marketmarket. Due to the long sales cycle, particularly for 2019. The recent enhancementslarger projects which can be two years or more, this had a corresponding negative effect on our revenue, especially in the last half of 2019 and continuing into the first half of 2020. This effect has lasted longer than we had anticipated. We are in the process of making substantial improvements to our commercial function, as outlined in our strategic plan, including building an appropriate organizational structure, improving the effectiveness of our existing sales force, attracting new sales talent, establishing strategic marketing and senior management team maylead generation functions, as well as expanding and better supporting our Distribution Partner network. While we believe these actions are critical to driving long-term, sustainable growth, these actions did not have a measurable effect on 2020 revenues to date.

Our revenues were also impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We estimate approximately $3.7 million of projects that we were highly confident of second quarter delivery at March 15 were deferred to future quarters in addition to opportunities that would normally have come to fruition that were delayed or deferred, the amount of which is not possible to quantify. These project delays were primarily a result of construction site restrictions imposed by local regulatory authorities, including the effects of social distancing measures. It is uncertain when these projects will be delivered and it is highly likely that future projects will also experience similar delays as the pandemic runs its course. While we have not yet positively affected sales due to, we believe, our long sales cycle.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, product revenue decreased by $7.0 million or 4% compared to the same period of 2018 for the same reasons as previously discussed.

The changes in installation revenue are primarily due to the timing of projects.projects and overall sales activity, including the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Except in limited circumstances, our Distribution Partners, rather than the Company, perform installation services, and accordingly, we are not anticipating significant growth in this revenue stream.

Our success is partly dependent on our ability to profitably develop our Distribution Partner network to expand our market penetration and ensure best practices are shared across local markets. We had 93currently have 80 Distribution Partners, at September 30, 2019.servicing multiple locations. We recently added five Distribution Partners, one in each of the west, south and north east, and two in the central regions of the United States, and have ended our relationships with certain underperforming Distribution Partners. Our clients, as serviced primarily through our Distribution Partners, exist within a variety of industries, including healthcare, education, financial services, government and military, manufacturing,non-profit, energy, professional services, retail, technology and hospitality.

Revenue decreased by 12%34% and 36% respectively in the three and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 over the same periodperiods in 20182019 and was driven primarily by decreased healthcarecommercial sales which reflects the disruption in sales activity levels noted above. Commercial revenues were lower due to the completion of a major healthcare projectthat was not replaced in 2019, and decreased government sales, which was mainly due to the timing of certain projects. This decrease in revenue was partially offset by growthproject in the commercial and education sectors. For the nine months ended September 30,first half of 2019 revenue was lower by 3% compared to the same period in 2018, with continued growth in the commercial and education sectors, offset by the completion of a major healthcare project in 2018 that was not replaced and the impact of COVID-19 on construction activity. Decreased healthcare sales in 2019 and a reduced numberthe first half of installation projects.2020 reflect the completion of several major healthcare projects that were not replaced in 2020.

Sales2019. The decreases were largely related to a reduction in commission expenses on lower revenues and marketinglower travel, meals and entertainment expenses decreased $4.3 million to $25.9 million forin the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, from $30.2 million for2020 due to restrictions on travel as a result of COVID-19, the nine months ended September 30, 2018.cancellation of Connext and other tradeshows as well as continued attention to cost discipline. As economies re-open, we anticipate travel and entertainment expenses to increase over current levels, the timing and amount of which, however, are indeterminate. Included in sales and marketing expenses in the three months and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019 were $0.7was $1.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, ofone-time consulting costs related to the Sales & Marketing Plan. These costs were offset by a $1.5 millionour sales and $1.6 million reductionmarketing plan that did not recur in commission expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, on lower revenues. Additionally, we have continued to realize reductions in travel, meals and entertainment costs and cost reductions related to trade shows; however, none of these expense reductions are expected to materially affect our future sales revenue.2020.

Our sales and marketing efforts in 2019 are largely concentratedcontinue to focus on establishing the appropriate sales organization and personnel, significantly improving our marketing approach and driving returns on sales and marketing expenditures. In April 2019, we engaged an internationally recognized consulting firm to evaluate our current sales and marketing approach and assist in the development of action plans necessary to drive accelerated growth. Along with the incremental costs associated with this consulting engagement in 2019, we expect sales and marketing expense to increase in conjunction with higher sales due to higher commissions,expenditures, as well as investment in sales generating initiatives as we implement our Sales & Marketing Plan, including targeted increasesoutlined in our commercial organization headcount, expansion and refreshmentstrategic plan. In light of our DIRTT Experience Centers (formally known as Green Learning Centers), and implementation of related systems and tools. Our ongoing focus isuncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have prioritized critical hires that are necessary to continue to advance our overall strategy, including the implementation of necessary systems and tools while ensuring appropriate cost control costs by emphasizing return on investment on our sales and marketing expenditures.cash conservation.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) increased $0.1decreased $0.7 million to $7.3$6.2 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 from $7.2$6.9 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018. This includes

2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, general and administrative expenses increased $0.2 million to $14.0 million from $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

$1.4For the three months ended June 30, 2020, the decrease was the result of incurring $0.9 million ofone-time higher legal costs, offset by expense reductions, and during the second quarter of 2019 we incurred $0.4 million of professional fees related to the Nasdaq listing incurred inof our common shares on Nasdaq. For the third quartersix months ended June 30, 2020, the increase was the result of 2019,incurring $3.0 million of higher legal costs and recording a $0.6 million of expected credit losses against our accounts receivable balances. These costs were offset by a $1.3 million reversal of a claims provision.

G&A expenses decreased $0.6 million to $21.0 million forexpense reductions and during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019 from $21.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. In 2018, we incurred $1.4 million related to proxy defense costs which did not reoccur in 2019. Additionally, we reversed a $1.3 million claim provision during the third quarter of 2019. These items were partially offset by $2.5$1.1 million of costsprofessional fees related to the Nasdaq listing incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Beginning in 2020, we anticipate incremental annualnon-listing related costs of approximately $1.5 to $2.0 million, as a result of becoming a U.S. registrant, driven largely by increased director and officer insurance premiums, the costs of maintaining two listings, as well as expected increases in audit, legal, and other compliance costs.our common shares on Nasdaq.

Operations Support Expenses

Operations support expenditures include the fixed costs associated with delivery and project management of DIRTT Solutions.solutions. Operations support expenses increased $0.5decreased by $0.6 million to $2.4$2.3 million from $2.9 million in the prior year period. Operations support costs decreased $0.6 million to $4.8 million for the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020 from $1.9$5.4 million for the same period of 2019. In the three and six months ended September 30, 2018, largely due to an increase in consulting costs during this quarter.

Technology and Development Expenses

Technology and development expenses relate tonon-capitalizable costs associated with our product and software development teams and are primarily comprised of salaries and benefits of technical staff.

Technology and development expenses increased $0.8by $0.1 million to $1.7$2.1 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, compared to $0.9$2.0 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018.2019.

These increases are due to a $0.3 million and $1.7 million decreasecomparable period in capitalized salaries for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, as the current mix of projects undertaken by us included a higher portion of efforts related to business process improvements that were not eligible for capitalization. In addition, technology and development expenses included $0.3 million and $0.5 million of salary and benefit costs that were classified as cost of sales of technical services during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, as well as a higher provision for variable compensation.2019.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation reflectedIn the third quarter of 2018, we determined that we no longer qualified as a $2.4 million recoveryForeign Private Issuer (“FPI”) under the rules of the SEC. To minimize any undue effects on employees, our board of directors approved the availability of a cash surrender feature for certain options, including options issued under our Amended and Restated Incentive Stock Option Plan (“Option Plan”), until such time as we requalified as a FPI or we registered our common shares with the SEC. Accordingly, we accounted for the three months ended Septemberfair value of outstanding options at the end of June 30, 2019 compared to an expense of $2.0 million foras a liability, with changes in the same period of 2018. Stock-basedliability recorded through net income as a stock-based compensation expense was reduced to $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $3.2 million for the same period of 2018. We recorded fair value adjustments on cash settled stock options during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, with no fair value adjustment required in the respective periods in 2018. As noted previously, following our listing on Nasdaq onadjustment. On October 9, 2019, we ceased allowing cash surrender of employee stock options. As a result, we will cease the associated liabilityoptions and returned to equity accounting forunder the Option Plan which requiredwithout quarterly fair value adjustments.adjustments at that date.

Impairment Expenses

During 2018, management decided to shift fromStock-based compensation expense for the early stage development of its DIRTT Timber marketthree months ended June 30, 2020 was $0.4 million, compared to a commercialized approach focused on large, standalone timber projects and as$1.7 million recovery for the same period of 2019. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, stock-based compensation was $0.9 million compared to $4.8 million for the same period of 2019. Stock-based compensation for the second quarter of 2019 included atie-in to our other DIRTT Solutions. Management concluded that this strategy required significantly less timber capacity than existed and took steps toright-size its timber capacity by the end of 2018. Management determined these decisions to be an indicator of impairment of the assets of the DIRTT Timber line.

During 2018, management performed an assessment of the carrying values of DIRTT Timber’s property, plant and equipment (“PP&E”). To determine the impairment of the DIRTT Timber assets, the net book value of the assets was evaluated against the fair value of the assets. The fair value of the DIRTT Timber assets reflects current projected sales for timber projectsadjustment on a standalone basis and the pull-through impact to other DIRTT Solutions. In its evaluation, management determined it was unable to reliably quantify the pull-through impact of timber on other DIRTT Solutions. The equipment related to the timber market was custom built for DIRTT, and there was no active market for resale. Therefore, the fair value was determined to be management’s estimate of scrap value for the specialized assets and an estimated resale value for less specialized assets that cannot be redeployed for other DIRTT Solutions. Management estimated the expected resale values based on the current market and industry knowledge. The fair value of the timber assets was estimated to be $1.1 million. This assessment resulted in an impairment charge of $6.1 million during 2018.cash settled options, as explained above.

Reorganization Expenses

WeIn the first half of 2019, we incurred $2.6 million of reorganization expenses, during the first quarter of 2019, and no material additional reorganization costs in the second or third quarters of 2019, compared to $2.2 million and $4.6 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. These costs includedincluding severance payments and related legal and consulting costs associated with management and organizational changes. No further material expendituresWe do not consider current period severances related to our plant workforce to be reorganization expenses in nature.

Government Subsidies

As part of the Canadian federal government’s COVID-19 Economic Response Plan, the Canadian government has established the Canadian Emergency Wage Subsidy (“CEWS”) on April 11, 2020. Under the CEWS, the Company may be eligible for a subsidy of up to 75% of wages paid to Canadian employees to August 29, 2020, depending on the Company meeting certain revenue decline thresholds. During the quarter we received or were eligible to receive $4.3 million under the CEWS.

The Canadian government recently introduced legislation to extend the availability of CEWS through December 19, 2020, with the amount of the subsidy varying depending on the scale of the Canadian revenue decline. Under the legislation, effective July 5, 2020, the CEWS would provide the Company with a taxable subsidy for wages paid to Canadian employees of up to 60%, with the amount of the subsidy varying depending on the scale of Canadian revenue decline and the maximum subsidy being reduced from 60% over the period, provided that, through August 29th, the Company will qualify for a CEWS subsidy that is at least as generous as under the current CEWS program, Under the proposals, a top-up subsidy of up to 85% of wages paid to Canadian employees would also be available if the Company has a 3-month average revenue drop in Canadian-sourced revenue of more than 50% and certain other requirements are anticipated in 2019.satisfied. We will continue to assess our eligibility on an ongoing basis for as long as the program is available.

Income Tax

Alberta’s general provincial tax rate was decreased on June 28, 2019 from 11.5% to 11% for the second half of 2019, to 10% for 2020, to 9% for 2021 and to 8% thereafter. As a result of the rate change, we reduced our deferred tax asset by $0.9 million, with a corresponding deferred income tax expense recorded in the second quarter of 2019.

The provision for income taxes is comprised of federal, state, provincial and foreign taxes based onpre-tax income. Income tax expense for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, inclusive of the previously noted charge associated with the Alberta tax rate change,2020 was $2.0$0.1 million, compared to $0.7$1.7 million for the same period of 2018,2019 and income tax expenserecovery for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 was $3.7$1.2 million as compared to $3.1a $1.7 million expense for the same period of 2018.2019. As at SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, we had C$36.742.3 million of loss carry-forwards in Canada and none in the United States, compared to C$43.6 million in Canada and none in the United States on December 31, 2018.States. These loss carry-forwards will begin to expire in 2030.2032.

Net Income (Loss)(loss)

Net income was $5.8$0.3 million or $0.07$0.00 net income per share in the thirdsecond quarter of 2019, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million or $0.02 net loss per share for the third quarter of 2018. The variances are the result of changes in gross profit and operating expenses as described above. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 includes a $2.4 million recovery in stock-based compensation, compared to a $2.0 million expense in the same period of 2018, and no reorganization or impairment expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $2.2 million and $6.1 million, respectively, in the same period of 2018.

Net income was $3.1 million or $0.04 per share in the first nine months of 2019,2020, compared to net income of $2.4$2.6 million or $0.03 net income per share for the first ninesecond quarter of 2019. The decrease in net income is attributable to the above noted reduction in gross profit and a $0.5 million increase in foreign exchange loss, partially offset by a $2.5 million reduction in operating expenses and $4.3 million of government subsidies. The reduction in operating expenses reflects lower commissions on reduced sales activities, the combination of $1.3 million of costs related to our sales and marketing plan and $0.4 million related to the listing of our common shares on Nasdaq in 2019 that did not recur, other cost reductions both deliberate and as a consequence of the pandemic, offset by higher legal costs of $0.9 million and an increase in stock based compensation of $2.1 million.

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $5.0 million or $0.06 net loss per share compared to $2.7 million or $0.03 net loss per share in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Compared to the prior year period, the increase in net loss is attributable to the above noted reduction in gross profit, partially offset by a $10.5 million reduction in operating costs, government subsidies of 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents at SeptemberJune 30, 20192020 totaled $56.6$44.6 million, an increasea decrease of $3.2$2.6 million from $47.2 million at December 31, 2018. On January 31, 2019, we repaid $5.6 million of long-term debt outstanding with cash on hand, without penalty. 2019.

In July 2019, we entered into a C$50.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with the Royal Bank of Canada (the “RBC Facility”).RBC. Draw-downs under the RBC Facility are available in both Canadian and U.S. dollars. TheAs a result of our decline in revenues, discussed previously, and the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our outlook, we entered into a letter agreement with RBC during the second quarter. Under the Letter Agreement, the Covenants are waived for the period April 1 to September 30, 2020. During the Covenant Holiday Period the Company is able to borrow to a maximum of 75% of eligible accounts receivable and 25% of eligible inventory, less priority payables, subject to an aggregate limit of C$50.0 million including amounts borrowed under the Leasing Facilities, described below. During the Covenant Holiday Period the Company is required to maintain a cash balance of $10.0 million if no loans are drawn under the facility, have Adjusted EBITDA of not less than a loss of $7.0 million and $16.5 million for the twelve month periods ended June 30 and September 30, 2020, and make capital expenditures of no more than $10.7 million during the Covenant Holiday Period. In the event that activity levels remain at current levels, we will likely seek an extension to the Covenant Holiday Period or permanently convert or replace the RBC Facility replaced the $18.0 million revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank, which expired onan asset backed facility. As at June 30, 2019.2020, the RBC Facility was undrawn and the available borrowing base was USD $12.8 million.

Management believesDuring the three months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into a C$5.0 million equipment leasing facility in Canada and a $16.0 million equipment leasing facility in the United States, which are available for equipment expenditures and certain equipment expenditures already incurred. The Leasing Facilities, respectively, have seven and five-year terms and bear interest at 4.25% and 3.5%. The U.S. leasing facility is extendible for an additional year. During the second quarter of 2020 we borrowed C$3.6 million ($2.6 million) against the Canadian Leasing Facility and we anticipate drawing on the U.S. Leasing Facility in the second half of 2020 when equipment is received at the South Carolina Plant.

In light of the uncertainty caused by the near and potential mid-term impacts of COVID-19, we have evaluated multiple downside scenarios and have implemented cost control and expenditure management processes. Based on these analyses and the implementation of these spending control processes, we believe that existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flowscombined with increased liquidity from operations willthe aforementioned leasing facilities should, based on current activity levels, be sufficient to support ongoing working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. Our future capital requirements will depend

Operating Activities

Net cash flows provided by operating activities increased to $17.9was $2.4 million and $1.6 million for the first ninethree and six months of 2019 from $7.5 million2020, respectively, compared to net cash flows used inprovided by operating activities of $7.5 million and $14.9 million in the first nine monthscorresponding periods of 2018.2019. The increasedecrease in

cash flows from operations is largely due to an increase in collections on accounts receivable balances and lack of an impairment charge in the first nine months of 2019. This was partially offset by an increase in foreign exchange loss and a decrease in revenues and a reduction in trade accounts payablepayables and other liabilities as compared tooffset by the first nine monthsimpact of 2018.government subsidies, increases in accounts receivable collections, and customer deposits and deferred revenue.

Investing Activities

WeFor the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we invested $7.8$4.5 million and $6.2 million, respectively, in property, plant and equipment compared to $1.8 million and $3.2 million in PP&E in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $7.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.respective prior year periods. The increase wasis primarily due to capital investments in manufacturing equipment purchases forfacilities including the new tile and millwork facility of which $1.6 million was incurred in the third quarter of 2019.South Carolina Plant. We invested $2.5$0.9 million and $1.9 million on capitalized software during the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, respectively, as compared to $4.2$1.1 million and $1.6 million in the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018.2019. The reductionincrease in the six month period ended June 30, 2020 is due to the current mix of projects undertaken by the Company and included a higher portion of efforts eligible for capitalization compared to the first half of 2019 in which projects were related to business process improvements that were not eligible for capitalization.

Financing Activities

For the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, net cash used2020, C$3.6 million ($2.6 million) was received under the equipment leasing facility in financing activitiesCanada discussed above and $0.1 million was $5.5 million.repaid. We repaid the balance of $5.6 million on long-term debt outstanding and related interest during the first quarter of 2019. Cash used in financing activities was $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

We currently expect to fund anticipated future investments withthrough the combination of available cash.cash and equipment leasing facilities. Apart from cash flow from operations, issuing equity and debt has been our primary source of capital to date. Additional debt or equity financing may be pursued in the future as we may deem appropriate. In the future, we may also use debt or pursue equity financing depending on the Company’s share price, interest rates, and nature of the investment opportunity and economic climate.

Credit FacilityFacilities

On July 19, 2019, we entered into the RBC Facility, a C$5050.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility with the Royal Bank of Canada (the “RBC Facility”).Thefacility. The RBC Facility has a three-year term and can be extended for up to two additional years at our option. Interest is calculated at the Canadian or U.S. prime rate with no adjustment, or the bankers’ acceptance rate plus 125 basis points. We are required to comply with certain financial covenants under the RBC Facility, including maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.15:1 and a maximum debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 3.0:1.1 on a trailing four quarter basis. We are also required to comply with certainnon-financial covenants, including, among other things, covenants restricting our ability to (i) dispose of our property, (ii) enter into certain transactions intended to effect or otherwise permit a material change in our corporate or capital structure, (iii) incur any debt, other than permitted debt, and (iv) permit certain encumbrances on our property. At June 30, 2020, we had no amounts drawn on our RBC Facility.

As a result of our decline in revenues, discussed previously, and the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our outlook, we entered into a Letter Agreement with RBC during the second quarter. Under the Letter Agreement, the Covenants are waived for the period April 1 to September 30, 2020. During the Covenant Holiday Period the Company is able to borrow to a maximum of 75% of eligible accounts receivable and 25% of eligible inventory, less priority

payables, subject to an aggregate limit of C$50.0 million including amounts borrowed under the Leasing Facilities. During the Covenant Holiday Period the Company is required to maintain a cash balance of $10.0 million if no loans are drawn under the facility, have Adjusted EBITDA of not less than a loss of $7.0 and $16.5 million for the twelve month periods ended June 30 and September 30, 2020, and make capital expenditures of no more than $10.7 million during the Covenant Holiday Period. In the event that activity levels remain at current levels, we will likely seek an extension to the Covenant Holiday Period or permanently convert our credit facility to replace our facility with an asset backed facility. As at June 30, 2020, the RBC Facility was undrawn and the available borrowing base was $12.8 million.

We are generally restricted under the RBC Facility from making dividends or distributions on our outstanding capital shares (other than any distribution by way of the payment of dividends by the issuance of equity securities). WeExcept during the Letter Agreement period where such distributions are prohibited, we may also declare and pay dividends to our shareholders provided that such dividends do not exceed 50% of the Free Operating Cash Flow (as defined in the RBC Facility) for the most recently completed fiscal year and meet certain other conditions. We may also make aone-time Permitted Special Distributions (as defined in the RBC Facility) provided that we maintain a minimum balance of at least C$20.0 million in our account and meet certain other conditions.

The RBC Facility is secured by substantially all of our real property located in Canada and the United States.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company entered into a C$5.0 million equipment leasing facility in Canada and a $16.0 million equipment leasing facility in the United States, which are available for equipment expenditures and certain equipment expenditures already incurred. The Leasing Facilities, respectively, have seven and five-year terms and bear interest at 4.25% and 3.5%. The U.S. leasing facility is extendible for an additional year. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company received C$3.6 million ($2.6 million) of cash consideration and commenced the lease term for the Canadian equipment expenditures.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

ThereCredit risk

The overall change and uncertainty in the economy as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused us to increase our expectation of credit losses during the first quarter of 2020, and additionally, we believe the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the ability of certain Distribution Partners to pay amounts owed or owing to DIRTT due to the impact of local shut-downs on businesses in certain markets. Accordingly, we have increased our provision for expected credit losses by $0.6 million to $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and we have implemented trade credit insurance for eligible accounts receivables that have arisen since April 1, 2020.

Foreign exchange risk

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar in March, 2020, resulted in a reduction in Canadian dollar denominated revenues and a reduction in reported operating expenses, as approximately 50% of our expenditures are denominated in Canadian dollars. If the foreign exchange rate moves in the opposite direction it will have a negative impact on our reported results.

Other than the above, there have been no material changes to our market risk exposures since our disclosures in our Registration StatementAnnual Report on Form 10.10-K. For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks, please refer to Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Quantitative7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Registration StatementAnnual Report on Form 10.10-K.

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act, of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019.2020. Based upon their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

On November 5, 2019, Falkbuilt Ltd. (“Falkbuilt”) filed a Statement of Claims against us inDuring the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta, Canada. Falkbuilt alleges that we have misappropriated and misused their alleged proprietary information in furtherance of our own product development. Falkbuilt seeks monetary relief, including, among other things, damages of approximately C$30.0 million, disgorgement of profits, punitive damages, and attorneys’ fees, and an interim, interlocutory and permanent injunction of our use of the alleged proprietary information.

Falkbuilt is affiliated with certain of our former employees, including Mogens Smed, our co-founder and former Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Barrie Loberg, our former Vice President of Software Development. As previously disclosed,period covered by this Quarterly Report on May 9, 2019, we filed a lawsuit in the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta against Mr. Smed and Mr. Loberg, to enforce the terms of our Settlement Agreement and their respective obligations, including non-compete and non-solicit provisions, that we entered into in connection with their departure. We believe that Falkbuilt’s lawsuit against us is part of their litigation strategy related to our lawsuit against them, and we believe it is without merit. We intend to defend it vigorously and to continue to pursue our legal remedies against Messrs. Smed and Loberg and their company, Falkbuilt.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

As ofIn addition to the date ofother information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form10-Q, there have been no material changes toyou should carefully consider the risk factors disclosed in Item 1Aand other cautionary statements described under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our Registration StatementAnnual Report on Form 10.10-K, which could materially affect our businesses, financial condition, or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently knowknown to useus or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth could be harmed by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected, and may continue to negatively affect, our operations, including our revenue, expenses, collectability of accounts receivables and other amounts owed, capital expenditures, liquidity, prospects, and overall financial condition. We are subject to risks related to the public health crises such as the global pandemic associated with the coronavirus (COVID-19). In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. Further, the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 pandemic a national emergency. In Canada and the United States, numerous state, local, and provincial jurisdictions, including Alberta, Canada, where our headquarters and a principal manufacturing facility are located, and Phoenix, Arizona and Savannah, Georgia, where our other principal manufacturing facilities are located, have imposed, and others in the future may impose, “shelter-in-place” orders, quarantines, executive orders and similar government orders and restrictions for their residents to control the spread of COVID-19. Such orders or restrictions, and the perception that such orders or restrictions could occur, have resulted in business closures, work stoppages, slowdowns and delays, work-from-home policies, travel restrictions, construction delays and stoppages and cancellation of events, among other effects, thereby negatively affecting our employees, customers, suppliers, Distribution Partners, and offices, among others.

We have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic by, among other things, implementing enhanced safety protocols to protect our employees; commencing an evaluation of potential downside operational risk scenarios and developing action plans; eliminating or deferring uncommitted non-critical or discretionary spending; and commencing the process to secure additional incremental access to liquidity. Due to the shelter-in-place orders in Canada and the United States, we have implemented work-from-home policies for many non-factory employees as well as plant access restrictions and social-distancing measures within our facilities, which may affect productivity and disrupt our business operations, including our ability to maintain operations, financial reporting systems, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Shelter-in-place policies in multiple jurisdictions combined with the resulting adverse economic conditions are expected to adversely affect construction activity in the near term, with potential significant adverse effects extending beyond 2020. For example, several projects currently underway are experiencing delay, impacted by both the implementation of social distancing and other safety-related measures. We also believe that the COVID-19 pandemic may have significant influence on future workplace environments, with increasing focus on workplace safety. This could lead to a reduction in open office environments and increased demand for social spacing and separation within the workplace, which may benefit our business. On the other hand, if alternative work arrangements, such as work from home, become more prevalent, demand for our products may decrease. Continued shelter-in-place orders, quarantines, executive orders or related measures to combat the spread of COVID-19, as well as perceived need by individuals to continue such practices, could harm our near- and long-term results of operations and revenue, business and financial condition.

In addition, the COVID-19 outbreak has adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect our plans to grow our business. For example, in light of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and logistical challenges of hiring and onboarding, we are evaluating our priorities and are phasing the planned increases to our commercial organizational headcount needed to strengthen our sales and marketing efforts to implement our strategic plan. We have also further reduced our manufacturing labor force and have reduced shifts at our manufacturing facilities.

Adverse economic and market conditions could also have a negative effect on others on whom our business depends, such as our suppliers, Distribution Partners, customers, and third-party contractors, which may cause them to fail to meet their obligations to us. Additionally, we are working closely with our Distribution Partners to understand expected activity levels and are actively monitoring our opportunity pipeline and our daily order entry relative to our plant capacity and labor force requirements. However, we believe the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the ability of certain Distribution Partners to pay amounts owed or owing to us due to the impact of local shut-downs on businesses in certain markets. We increased our expected credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 by $0.6 million to reflect increased collection risk related to certain Distribution Partners. We also implemented methods to further decrease our credit risk exposure, including implementing trade credit insurance for eligible accounts receivables that have arisen since April 1, 2020.

While the potential economic impact brought by and the duration of COVID-19 may be difficult to assess or predict, the pandemic has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect our business and the value of our common shares. Further, a recession or prolonged economic contraction could also harm the business and results of operations of our customers and Distribution Partners, resulting in potential business closures and layoffs of employees. The timing and pace of economic recovery, the resumption of construction activity and related demand, or its effect on achievement of our long-term strategic plan goals is not possible to predict.

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to change rapidly. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar health epidemic on our business and our financial and operational performance is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread, severity, and any recurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic; the duration and scope of related federal, state, provincial and local government orders and restrictions; the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the construction market and on our Distribution Partners, customers and suppliers; and our access to capital, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.
