First Quarter Ended March 31, 2015 Highlights
-Gross revenues were lower by 15 percent to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to $1.4 million for the same quarter last year, mainly due to decrease in the average charge out rates for its Heating Units in the USA due to the general overall slowdown of the oil and gas activities in the regions where the Corporation operates.
-During the first quarter of 2015 the Corporation closed on a non-brokered private placement and issued 20 million units at $0.05 per unit for gross proceeds of $1 million. Each unit consists of one common share of the Corporation and one share purchase warrant that entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share of the Corporation for a period of two years from the closing date at a price of $0.075 per share for the first twelve months and $0.10 for the remaining twelve months.
-The Corporation had a total of 5 Heating Units operating as at the end of March 31, 2015 compared to 4 Heating Units as at the end March 31, 2014;
-Net loss before other items for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $0.9 million compared to a net loss before other items of $0.3 million for the same quarter last year and increase in loss before other items by 166 percent , mainly due to decrease in overall revenues and decrease in average charge out rates for its Heating Units during the current quarter due to slower oil and gas activities in the regions where the Corporation operates;
-Net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 was $1.1 million compared to a net loss of $0.4 million for the same quarter last year an increase in loss by 170 percent, mainly due decrease in overall revenues and decrease in average charge out rates for its Heating Units during the current quarter due to slower oil and gas activities in the regions where the Corporation operates and increase in finance expenses as the Corporation entered into higher rate lease financing for its Equipment during the second half of 2014.
Commenting on first quarter ended March 31, 2015 results, Mr. Swapan Kakumanu, IES, Chief Financial Officer stated, "Our first quarter results were impacted by the overall slowdown of in oil and gas activities in the regions we currently operate. The Company is taking necessary steps to stream line operations and adjust costs with the new changed economic environment. We expect to see continued pressure on our charge out rates on our Heating Units during the remainder of 2015."
