New Look Eyewear Inc. Releases First Quarter 2013 Results and Announces its Quarterly Dividend

MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - May 3, 2013) - New Look Eyewear Inc. (TSX:BCI) ("New Look") announced today that revenues for the first quarter of 2013 reached $20.3 million, an increase of 0.9% over the corresponding period of last year.

Net earnings for the quarter were $1.3 million ($0.12 per share(2) ) compared to $1.2 million ($0.11 per share) last year. First quarter operating cash flows (before changes in working capital items) amounted to $2.9 million, a slight increase over the previous year.

EBITDA refers to consolidated earnings before financial expenses, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and impairment of non-financial assets. It excludes any gain or loss from changes in fair value of foreign exchange contracts, and equity-based compensation. EBITDA is not a recognized measure under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures used by other entities. The Company believes that EBITDA is a useful financial metric as it assists in determining the ability to generate cash from operations. Investors should be cautioned that EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings or cash flows as determined under IFRS.
