  • The new WIM station will assist Brussels Mobility in achieving its goals of improving road safety and creating a fair regulatory environment by reducing the number of overloaded vehicles on the roads of the Brussels region.
  • Traffic data provided by the system will support Brussels Mobility's mission to foster economic growth and improve quality of life through the development of transport infrastructure.

TORONTO, Jan. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill" or the "Company") (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), announced today a contract to provide weigh-in-motion ("WIM") technology to Brussels Mobility through a joint project with Belgium-based technology integrator Jacops NV ("Jacops"). Quarterhill will be responsible for the design and supply of the WIM subsystem, technical support, and training. Quarterhill will also provide Jacops with the software necessary for commercial vehicle monitoring and enforcement.

Quarterhill will supply the WIM system for the Brussels-Capital Region weigh station, which will be used to pre-select overloaded vehicles for enforcement. The dynamic weighing station will promote and improve the efficiency of inspections by screening vehicles at highway speeds in advance of the law enforcement inspection site. In addition, the weigh station will generate data that provides an accurate, real-time picture of the vehicles on the E19 highway.

The system's goal is to reduce the number of overloaded vehicles on the Brussels Region's roads. Overloading causes many problems, such as rapid road deterioration, more serious accidents, and unfair competition between transport companies. Quarterhill's technology mitigates these issues by screening for overweight vehicles while optimizing the use of enforcement resources.

"We are excited at the prospect of introducing our advanced enforcement technology to Brussels Mobility and expanding our presence in Europe," said Chuck Myers, CEO of Quarterhill. "Together with Jacops, we will deploy a state-of-the-art high-speed WIM system that will make Belgian roads safer and more sustainable. We have a longstanding relationship with Jacops as a customer for our microwave sensor products, and this project demonstrates how having a broad portfolio of traffic technologies and established relationships with traffic system integrators leads to further opportunities."

The weigh station will monitor four lanes of one-way traffic on the highway and record data on vehicle classification and vehicle tax without impeding traffic. An overview camera provides images to help enforcement personnel clearly identify vehicles flagged by the system. An Automated Number Plate Reader system will photograph, recognize, store, process, and transmit the number plates of vehicles approaching the dynamic weighing station.

Quarterhill's iSINC WIM controller was selected for the project as it offers preselection of overweight vehicles, creates comprehensive vehicle records, classifies vehicles, and meets the desired standards for continual uptime monitoring and ease of service. iSINC's versatility allows it to control a wide array of sensors, cameras, dimensioning systems, communication systems, and custom equipment.

WIM sensors that comply with the accuracies outlined in the Nmi International WIM standard Specification and test procedures for WIM Systems will be installed at the site. The WIM sensors meet the lane width specifications and provide high durability, stable output over time, and IP68 water resistance.

Quarterhill will advise Jacops on the design and placement of the WIM system components to ensure optimal operation, including onsite technical support for installation, testing, and initial calibration. Quarterhill will also provide Jacops with thorough training on the WIM components and system calibration. Over the 2-year warranty period, Quarterhill will provide remote diagnostics and technical support to ensure continuous uptime and optimal performance.

"This project shows that Quarterhill's technology is well suited to the precise needs of European agencies. We are set to elevate road safety and integrity in the region, reinforcing our expanding footprint in this important market," stated Heimo Haub, Managing Director, Quarterhill Europe.

Gross Margin Expansion and Positive Adjusted EBITDA Highlight Q3 Progress

Quarterhill Demonstrates Strong Improvement in Profitability and Operational Execution

TORONTO, Nov. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill" or the "Company") (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), a leading provider of tolling and enforcement solutions in the Intelligent Transportation System ("ITS") industry, announces its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. All financial information in this press release is reported in United States ("US") dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Quarterhill delivered another quarter of significant progress in its turnaround strategy, achieving substantial gross margin expansion, positive Adjusted EBITDA and positive operating cash flow. The Company also continued to strengthen its balance sheet while advancing its multi-year plan to drive sustained profitability and margin growth across its business units.

Q3 2025 Highlights

  • Revenue for Q3 2025 was $39.7 million, up from $38.0 million in Q3 2024.
  • Gross margin1 percentage for Q3 2025 improved to 26%, compared to 13% in Q3 2024.
  • Cash generated from operations for Q3 2025 was $6.4 million, up significantly compared to cash used in operations of $1.7 million in Q3 2024.
  • Cash and cash equivalents were $24.1 million at September 30, 2025.
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 for Q3 2025 was $1.4 million, an improvement compared to ($2.8) million in Q3 2024, marking the Company's first positive Adjusted EBITDA quarter since Q4 2024.
  • Revenue backlog3 was $427 million at September 30, 2025.
  • Restructuring announced in July expected to yield annualized savings of approximately $12 million.

"Q3 marks an important inflection point for Quarterhill," said Chuck Myers, CEO at Quarterhill. "We're beginning to see the results of our turnaround take hold, reflected in significant margin expansion, positive Adjusted EBITDA and strong cash generation. Gross margin improved to 26%, our highest level in more than two years, as we delivered better project execution, disciplined cost management and a more profitable revenue mix."

"Our Safety & Enforcement unit continues to perform exceptionally well, delivering gross margins above 40%, while our Tolling business is benefiting from restructuring actions and improved contract terms. With a robust $427 million revenue backlog3, a roughly $2 billion pipeline, and a strengthened balance sheet, we're now focused on accelerating growth and expanding profitability as we position Quarterhill as a leading, technology-driven ITS platform company."

Q3 2025 and Year-to-Date Financial Review
Quarterhill's Management's Discussion and Analysis and Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are available at the Company's website and at its profile at SEDAR+.

Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, were $39.7 million and $116.7 million compared to $38.0 million and $114.4 million in the same periods last year. The increase in revenue for Q3 was due to growth in both the Company's tolling and safety and enforcement business units, while the increase for the year-to-date period was due to growth in the safety and enforcement unit.

Gross profit1 as a value and as a percentage of revenues may be subject to significant variance in each reporting period due to the nature and type of contract and service work performed and currency volatility. Gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $10.5 million and $20.7 million, or 26% and 18%, as compared to $5.1 million and $20.0 million, or 13% and 17%, in the same periods last year. The increase for Q3 and the year-to-date period was primarily due to the restructuring, improved margins on certain tolling contracts and continued strong margin performance from the safety and enforcement unit.

Total operating expenses are comprised of selling, general and administrative costs ("SG&A"), research and development ("R&D") costs, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets and other charges. Total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, were $13.7 million and $37.8 million compared to $11.3 million and $32.5 million in the same periods last year. The increase for Q3 is primarily due to higher costs related to stock-based compensation, recruitment, technical consulting, facilities, R&D and other charges. The increase for the year-to-date period is due to similar factors, offset, in part, by a decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses and certain other charges.

Adjusted EBITDA2 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $1.4 million and ($4.7) million compared to ($2.8) million and ($0.9) million in the same periods last year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA1 for Q3 was primarily due to the factors impacting revenue, gross margin and expenses, as previously described.  

Net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, was ($4.7) million and ($19.9) million, or ($0.04) and ($0.17) per diluted share, compared to net losses of ($4.1) million and ($11.3) million, or ($0.04) and ($0.10) per diluted share, in the same periods last year.

Cash generated from (used in) operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $6.4 million and ($1.7) million compared to cash used in operations of ($1.7) million and ($11.0) million in the same periods last year. Cash and cash equivalents were $24.1 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $22.7 million at June 30, 2025, and $31.9 million at December 31, 2024. The Company made long-term debt repayments of $3.1 million in Q3.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Non-IFRS Ratios
Quarterhill uses both IFRS and certain non-IFRS financial measures to assess performance. Non-IFRS financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) depict historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company, (b) with respect to their composition, exclude amounts that are included in, or include amounts that are excluded from, the composition of the most directly comparable financial measure disclosed in the primary financial statements of the company, (c) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company, and (d) are not a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation. Non-IFRS ratios are financial measures disclosed by a company that are in the form of a ratio, fraction, percentage or similar representation that has a non-IFRS financial measure as one or more of its components, and that are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company.

These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios are not standardized financial measures under IFRS, and, therefore, are unlikely to be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other companies. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios provide transparent and useful supplemental information to help investors evaluate our financial performance, financial condition, and liquidity using the same measures as management. These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Adjusted EBITDA - Non-IFRS Financial Measures

We use the non-IFRS financial measure "Adjusted EBITDA" to mean net loss adjusted for (i) income taxes, (ii) finance expense or income; (iii) amortization and impairment of intangibles; (iv) other charges and other one-time items; (v) depreciation of right-of-use assets and property, plant and equipment; (vi) stock-based compensation; (vii) foreign exchange (gain) loss ; (viii) other (income) expense; and (ix) changes in fair value of derivative liability. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management to assess our normalized cash generated on a consolidated basis. Adjusted EBITDA is also a performance measure that may be used by investors to analyze the cash generated by Quarterhill. Adjusted EBITDA should not be interpreted as an alternative to net income (loss) and cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with IFRS or as measure of liquidity. The most directly comparable IFRS financial measure is net income (loss). See Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA below.

Adjusted EBITDA per share – Non-IFRS Ratio

Adjusted EBITDA per share is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by the basic weighted average of common shares. Adjusted EBITDA per share is used by our management and investors to analyze cash generated by Quarterhill on a per share basis. The most comparable IFRS measure is earnings per share. See Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDA below.

Backlog - Non-IFRS Financial Measure

We use the non-IFRS measure "backlog" to mean the total value of work that has not yet been completed but that in management's experience of similar situations has: (a) a high certainty of being performed pursuant to existing contracts or work orders specifying job scope, value and timing; (b) an expectation of expansion of existing contracts due to expected extensions; and/or (c) been awarded to one or more of our ITS operating subsidiaries as evidenced by a binding contract or where the finalization of a binding contract is reasonably assured. Activities under such contracts may cover a period of up to 15 years. We do not include in "backlog" the value of any expected but unsigned change orders that management considers may apply to such contracts.

Supplementary Financial Measures
Supplementary financial measures are financial measures disclosed by a company that (a) are, or are intended to be, disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or expected future financial performance, financial position or cash flow of a company, (b) are not disclosed in the financial statements of the company, (c) are not non-IFRS financial measures, and (d) are not non-IFRS ratios. Key supplementary measures disclosed are as follows:

Gross margin %
Calculated as gross profit as a percentage of revenue.

‎Although the forward-looking statements contained in this news release are based upon assumptions ‎which management of the Company believes to be reasonable, the Company cannot assure investors ‎that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements.

The Company's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking ‎statements, as a result of numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors ‎including, but not limited to: changes in demand for the Company's products and services; general economic, ‎political, market and business conditions, including fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, ‎stock market volatility; reliance on key management personnel; risks related to competition within the Company's industry and relating to technological advances; litigation risks; cyber-security risks; fixed price contracts may result in unexpected costs to the Company; risks of health epidemics, pandemics and similar ‎outbreaks; the tolling contracts not successfully being renegotiated on terms acceptable or favourable to the Company, or at all; and the other risks set forth in the Company's most recent annual information form ‎and management's discussion and analysis for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.‎

  • Quarterhill successfully delivers and receives full system acceptance for the US 290 toll road project and completion of CTRMA 183A Phase III.

  • The milestones mark a significant achievement, showcasing Quarterhill's expertise in deploying advanced toll collection systems and reinforcing its commitment to improving regional mobility with state-of-the-art technology solutions.

TORONTO, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill" or the "Company") (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), a global leader in providing intelligent transportation system solutions, is proud to announce the successful completion and full system acceptance of the US 290 toll road project for the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (CTRMA). This milestone achievement further cements Quarterhill's reputation as an innovator in the development of tolling technology.

In December 2021, Quarterhill was awarded the contract to deliver an advanced toll collection system for key segments of CTRMA's network, including US 290 and CTRMA 183A Phase III. Today, we are pleased to confirm that both initiatives have been completed to the full satisfaction of CTRMA, meeting all operational and technical requirements.

US 290 Expressway Project Highlights:

  • The US 290 toll road, a 6-mile corridor from US 183 to SH 130 in East Austin, has been upgraded to an expressway facility, significantly improving travel times for both tolled and non-toll lanes. This enhancement has tripled the existing roadway's capacity, enabling more efficient and safer travel across the region.

  • The integration of direct connectors at both US 183 and SH 130 promotes seamless vehicular movement, reduces congestion, and improves connectivity, benefiting countless commuters and contributing to economic growth in Williamson County and Northeast Travis County.

CTRMA 183A Phase III Highlights:

  • The completion of Phase III of the 183A toll supports CTRMA's infrastructure improvements that provide direct access between key points and improve the flow of traffic.

  • Collaboration with TxDOT and other stakeholders was pivotal in completing this project, underscoring Quarterhill's commitment to agency collaboration.

The toll systems on both roadways are fully automated, utilizing all-electronic tolling mechanisms that include options for electronic tags or Pay By Mail, aligning with modern tolling practices and ensuring a user-friendly experience for all motorists.

"We are thrilled with the successful launch and system acceptance at two of our projects, as part of our ongoing partnership with Quarterhill. This milestone not only demonstrates CTRMA's commitment to enhancing transportation infrastructure but also marks a significant step forward in utilizing advanced tolling technologies," said Greg Mack, Director of IT and Toll Systems at CTRMA. "We are confident that Quarterhill's innovative solutions will continue to improve the efficiency and reliability of our road networks, offering a superior travel experience for our community."

"We are pleased to have reached this significant milestone," said Chuck Myers, CEO of Quarterhill. "The successful delivery of these complex projects not only demonstrates our technical capabilities but also our dedication to collaboration that enhances transportation efficiency. We are proud to support CTRMA in their mission to provide innovative mobility solutions."

As these projects move from completion to operational phases, Quarterhill remains committed to supporting CTRMA with ongoing maintenance and technology advancements to ensure the highest levels of service and reliability.
