The Company recorded cost of revenue over the first quarter of 2016 of $3.1 million, an 18% or $0.5 million increase compared to the first quarter of 2015. This increase was due to an increase in expenses for third party asset shared equipment, depreciation, leasing of equipment delivery vehicles, and the strengthening of the US dollar.

Expenses over the first quarter of 2016 totaled $6.4 million, a 12% or $0.7 million increase compared to the first quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily driven by variable expenses associated with increased equipment rental activity, as well as increases in expenses for hiring and expansion of the Company's team, investment in technology development; support, maintenance and delivery; sales and marketing; interest; and strengthening of the US dollar.

For the first quarter of 2016, the Company recorded a net loss of $3.1 million, a 13% or $0.4 million increase compared to the first quarter of 2015. This was primarily due to increased expense levels and investments in the rolling out of new initiatives. The Company recorded an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $0.1 million, a small increase from the first quarter of 2015 due to slightly higher expenses and investment activities.

Noble Iron is committed to becoming the technology driven partner of choice for regional construction professionals and equipment owners. As such, the Company's software group remains focused on the roll out of new applications such as "Fleet Logic" and "Insight". Within the Company's equipment group, the focus remains on optimizing the rental utilization of both company and third party owned fleet, and on strengthening its asset sharing platform and market share.

References in this press release to Adjusted EBITDA are to earnings before interest expense, deferred income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share based compensation, gain on fair value increment on acquisition (net of deferred income taxes), acquisition expenses, accretion on convertible debt, interest on convertible debentures, severances and foreign exchange. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used by investors to compare issuers on the basis of ability to generate cash flow from operations. Adjusted EBITDA is not an earnings measure recognized by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), does not have standardized meanings as prescribed by IFRS and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Noble Iron's management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is an important supplemental measure in evaluating Noble Iron's performance and in determining whether to invest in its common shares. Readers of this information are cautioned that Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income or loss determined in accordance with IFRS as an indicator of Noble Iron's performance, or cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as measures of Noble Iron's liquidity and cash flows. Noble Iron's method of calculating Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the methods used by other issuers and, accordingly, Noble Iron's Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers.
