Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 28, 2025) - Urban Infrastructure Group Inc. (TSXV: UIG) ("urban" or the "Company"), a leading stage-one concrete and drainage infrastructure construction group, specializing in large scale new residential housing developments, announces its financial results for three and six months ended March 31, 2025. All financial information is provided in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
The Consolidated Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025, are available on the Company's SEDAR profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
Gary Alves stated, "Urban continues to execute on its core business, while increasing its focus on diversification and vertical integration. While the current market conditions are challenging for the home construction industry as a whole, for those who are nimble and innovative there are opportunities. We at Urban remain committed to our core values of quality, trust and customer focus while at the same time embracing the change. Additionally, I am excited about the most recent addition of Luca Filice to the role of C.O.O. Luca brings a wealth of experience and industry relationships across both the construction and financial sectors. I am working closely with Luca on several initiatives that we look forward to sharing in due course."
Management Commentary on the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2025
The Company recorded a net loss of $367,745 ($0.00 per share) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 as compared to net loss of $1,863,622 ($0.32 per share) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net loss is mostly the result of the one-time go-public expense in the March 2024 quarter, the vast majority of which was a non-cash expense.
Revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 decreased to $1,003,322 as compared to revenue of $1,536,307 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The cost of sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, were $877,343 compared to $1,213,023 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in revenues was a result of a seasonally slow period during the winter months exacerbated by an industry-wide, well-documented slowdown in the residential building market. Many in the industry, media and elsewhere believe this has been caused primarily by developers delaying project launches as they assess the interest rate environment and economic conditions. As a result of these delays, our sales for the quarter were down significantly from the prior year comparative period. That said, we continue to have a strong pipeline of contracted jobs but without the near-term certainty on when these industry delays will moderate. We note that there are some early signs of projects starting back up and our labour crews getting busier, but it remains to be seen if this will take on some permanence. Our belief is that a Bank of Canada rate cut in June would be a positive development.
