Accordingly, forward - looking statements, including any projections or analysis, should not be viewed as factual and should not be relied upon as an accurate prediction of future results . The forward - looking statements contained in this presentation are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on Procaps . These forward - looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control), or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward - looking statements .

17 Use of Constant Currency As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period - to - period comparisons, we believe the presentation of certain financial metrics and results on a constant currency basis in addition to the IFRS reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods . Constant currency information is non - IFRS financial information that compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period - over - period . We use results on a constant currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance . We currently present net revenue and contribution margin on a constant currency basis . We calculate constant currency by calculating nine month - end period for the nine months ended September 30 , 2022 using prior - period (nine months ended September 30 , 2021 ) foreign currency exchange rates . The functional foreign currencies for the primary regional markets where we operate, such as the Colombian Peso and the Brazilian Real, were adjusted on a constant currency basis at the exchange rates of COP $ 3 , 697 . 10 per U . S . $ 1 . 00 and R $ 5 . 3317 per U . S . $ 1 . 00 , respectively, for the nine months ended September 30 , 2021 . We generally refer to such amounts calculated on a constant currency basis as excluding the impact of foreign exchange . These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with IFRS . Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with IFRS .
