CANAF ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR Q1 2017
Canaf Group Inc. has released its financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the three-month period ended Jan. 31, 2017.
The corporation is very pleased to confirm the expected positive results for the quarter, which demonstrate the continued strong turnaround of the corporation's South African business, Quantum.
Revenue for the quarter increased to $2,991,706, an increase of 193 per cent compared with the same quarter last fiscal year, and up 67 per cent from the previous quarter ended Jan. 31, 2017. The corporation expects sustained levels of revenue during Q2 2017, as demand for Quantum's product remains strong in South Africa. The corporation continues to work on allocating all of its production for the rest of the fiscal period, by securing long-term contracts with key customers.
During the quarter, the corporation recorded a net income of $197,691 ($259,579 (Canadian)), in comparison with a net loss of $294,482 for the same quarter the previous year. Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) rose to $569,300 ($747,517 (Canadian)) for the quarter.
The corporation intends to continue to generate positive free cash flow during the fiscal year-end 2017 and, as it accumulates cash, will continue to look at either investment to improve the efficiency of its older facilities, or investment in related business opportunities in South Africa.
For more details and discussion on the results, the financial statements and management discussion and analysis can be viewed on SEDAR or the company's website. All references to dollars herein are to U.S. dollars.
