25.09.2023  |  CNW

/NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE USA/

KAMLOOPS, Sept. 25, 2023 - Progressive Planet (TSXV: PLAN) (OTCQB: ASHXF) ("Progressive Planet", "PLAN", or the "Company"), a leader in developing CleanTech solutions for the planet, announces it has filed consolidated financial statements and related management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") for the fiscal quarter ending July 31, 2023 on SEDAR+. These documents are also available on the Company's website.

"Progressive Planet replaced the ultra-low margin business strategically discontinued in fiscal 2023 from large retail customers and is making more for the same efforts," says Progressive Planet CEO Steve Harpur.

Added Harpur: "With two unused credit facilities totalling $3.21 million at quarter ended July 31, 2023, we are in a good position to bridge any short-term operating cash constraints and fund growth in the short-term without raising new equity as we move forward into historically stronger quarters."

Gross margin is a non-IFRS financial measure. This ratio expresses gross profit as a percentage of revenue for a given period. It assists in explaining the Company's results from period to period and measuring profitability. This ratio is calculated by dividing gross profit for a period by the corresponding revenue for the period. There is no directly comparable IFRS measure.
