• During the year, the Company made notable strides to advance its strategy to expand its market presence and to solidify its position as a leader in mobile natural gas power systems.  On September 26, 2024, the Company announced a five-year exclusivity agreement with FlexEnergy Solutions, a globally recognized leader in turbine and microturbine power generation equipment.  The agreement positions the Company as the exclusive provider of short-term turbine and microturbine applications across all commercial and industrial sectors in Alberta and British Columbia.  Additionally, on December 5, 2024, the Company raised capital of $28 million by way of a short-form prospectus to support growth initiatives.  This capital raise will enable the Company to strengthen its capabilities, expand market reach and continue to deliver cutting-edge energy solutions to key Canadian markets.  Both the exclusivity agreement and the successful capital raise reflect the Company’s commitment to expand its market presence and to reinforce its position as a leader in providing innovative and reliable energy solutions.

• On February 28, 2025, the Company repaid its bank loan facility by way of a cash payment of $15,675,574 which included a negotiated settlement discount from the lender in the amount of $1,500,000.  Upon receipt of the funds, all securities held by the lender under the credit agreement were released.  The Company is currently in the process of negotiating a new bank loan facility with a tier one lender and expects to have it completed in the first quarter of 2025.

• Activity during the first half of the year was high and market conditions were favourable for the energy sector, resulting in additional drilling, completion and infrastructure projects.  Also, many of the Company’s natural gas producers were preparing for the start-up of the LNG plant in Kitimat, B.C.  However, when the target start-up date was pushed to mid 2025, some of the Company’s customers adjusted their work plans and as a result, activity in the fourth quarter only increased at a moderate rate.  Even though the fourth quarter saw reduced activity, activity levels for the first part of 2025 are higher and are expected to continue throughout the year.  The demand for natural gas power generation systems continues to increase and indicates a shift towards lower emission alternatives, and going forward, market conditions remain favourable for the energy sector, resulting in increased drilling, completion, and infrastructure projects.  

• Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $7,812,010 compared to $9,598,945 in the prior period, a decrease of $1,786,935 or 19%.  Revenue for the fourth quarter did increase by 15% over quarter three, however this increase was lower than anticipated.  Gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $2,825,431 compared to $4,844,194 in the prior period, a decrease of $2,018,763 of 42%.  Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2024, was $2,272,455 compared to $4,374,735 in the prior period, a decrease of $2,102,280 or 48%.  Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $34,646,888 compared to $33,500,501 in the prior period, an increase of $1,146,387 or 3%.  Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $15,561,427 which is consistent to the prior period.  Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $13,069,866 which is slightly lower, compared to the prior period.   

• For the year ended December 31, 2024, the company generated cash flow from operations of $12,132,566 compared to $13,530,272 in the prior year.  This change is consistent with revenue levels during the year.  The Company continues to utilize a combination of cash flow, debt and equity to right-size and modernize its equipment fleet to meet customer demands.  During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company acquired $16,909,417 of capital assets, primarily for natural gas power generation equipment and facilities, upgrading existing equipment, and meeting specific requests from customers.  The Company continues to see its customers switching to natural gas as a cleaner and more efficient alternative to diesel, increasing the demand for natural gas generators and micro-grid packages.
