FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER AND THE FIRST NINE MONTHS ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 2013




--  Revenues were $1,997,000 for the three-month period ended September 30,
    2013, as compared to $1,283,000 for the same period in 2012. For the
    first nine months, revenues were $5,022,000 in 2013 compared to
    $3,963,000 for the same period in 2012.These respective increase of 56%
    and 27% reflect higher sales volumes of Avenanthramides and oat oil. 
    
--  Research and development Investments were $203,000 and $568,000 for the
    three-month period and nine-month period ended September 30, 2013 as
    compared to $298,000 and $726,000 for the same periods in 2012. The
    decreased investment in 2013 compared to 2012 is due to grant
    recognition of discounted CAAP funding and grant contributions from
    Alberta Innovates Technology Future and a federal government program
    offset by significant increased expenses for regulatory and patents of
    $150,000 incurred during the first nine months of 2013 for the issuance
    of several key patents. 
    
--  General and Administration expenses were $393,000 and $1,266,000 for the
    three-month period and nine-month period ended September 30, 2013
    compared to $431,000 and $1,313,000 for the same periods in 2012. These
    respective decreases of $38,000 and $47,000 in 2013 as compared to 2012
    are the result of decreased consulting engineer fees related to
    feasibility studies conducted in 2012 but not in 2013 and to lower legal
    expenses 
    
--  Sales and Marketing expenses were $5,000 and $74,000 for the three-month
    and nine-month period ended September 30, 2013 compared to $33,000 and
    $159,000 for the same periods in 2012. These decreases reflect lower
    travel costs for attendance at conferences and lower consulting costs
    for marketing studies 
    
--  Income from Operations was $198,000 in the third quarter of 2013 in
    comparison with a loss of $114,000 for the same period of 2012. For the
    first nine months of 2013, income from operations was $446,000 compared
    to a loss of $265,000 for the same period in 2012. 
    
--  Net income/loss. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2013,
    net income was $123,000 versus a net loss of $137,000 for the same
    period in 2012. For the first nine-months of 2013, Net income amounted
    to $280,000 compared to a net loss of $301,000 for the same period in
    2012. The Company commenced in April 2013 paying rent on its new
    manufacturing facility which rent has been classified as "other
    operating loss" as the facility is not yet operational. 



"We are very pleased with our 2013 year to date results showing an increase of
revenues of $1,059,000 or 26.7% compared to the first nine months of 2012 and
showing a net profit of $280,000 compared to a net loss of $301,000 for the same
period in 2012" said Gilles Gagnon, President and CEO. " This result, which
includes the two highest quarterly revenues in Ceapro's history, is even more
impressive considering they were achieved during a year where we are building a
new facility which requires significant investment and resources" he added.
