EDMONTON, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/31/17 -- Wavefront Technology Solutions Inc. (Wavefront or the Company)(TSX VENTURE: WEE)(OTCQX: WFTSF) an Oil Field Service ("OFS") provider focused on enhancing hydrocarbon recovery through the lifecycle of a production asset announces its financial results for the third quarter ending May 31, 2017.
The financial highlights for the reporting period are as follows:
-- Revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2017 were $1,640,103 compared
to the comparative period ended May 31, 2016 that recognized revenues of
$2,240,682. The decrease in revenue principally relates to the cessation
of certain international Powerwave work in the prior year.
For the nine months ended May 31, 2017, Powerwave revenues related to
well stimulations increased by $367,340 to $963,557, compared to
$596,217 in the comparative period. The increases over the comparative
period relates to increases in the USA market, which increased by an
approximated $250,653 or 98.2%, and an increase of approximately 53.3%
or $147,764 in the Middle East.
-- For the third quarter ended May 31, 2017, revenues totalled $525,371, a
decrease of $268,767 from the comparative quarter ended May 31, 2016.
The decrease in revenues over the comparative period is principally
related to decreases in Powerwave IOR/EOR project revenues; however,
these decreases were partially offset by increases in Powerwave
stimulation revenues, which increased by 9.9% to $332,900. The increases
of Powerwave stimulation revenues over the comparative quarter
principally relate to the return of certain activity in the USA market,
which increased by an approximated 78.9%.
Revenues for the quarter ended May 31, 2017 increased by $45,156 over
the prior quarter (i.e., three months ended February 28, 2017). The
increase of revenues over the prior quarter is principally a result of
increased international Powerwave revenues related to well stimulations
which grew by 157.8% or $113,284.
-- The basic and diluted net loss for the quarter ended May 31, 2017
increased by $259,504 to $922,141 ($0.011 per share), compared to
$662,637 ($0.008 per share) for the comparative quarter ended May 31,
2016.
The above financial highlights should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the management discussion and analysis of results for Wavefront for the third quarter ended May 31, 2017, which were filed on SEDAR on July 31, 2017.
"As a whole the oil and gas industry and, in particular, the Middle East segment is highly networked and the benefits and attributes of Powerwave for well stimulation is generating positive attention and novel opportunity for Wavefront," said Wavefront President and CEO Brett Davidson."Wavefront Management remains optimistic that new, important Powerwave stimulation contracts in the Middle East as well as Powerwave IOR/EOR contracts in Latin and South America may occur shortly and will strengthen the Company's balance sheet."
