HE Hanwei Energy Services Corp

Hanwei Energy Services Corp. (TSX: HE) (“Hanwei” or the “Company”), today reported its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2019. All amounts are in Canadian Dollars unless otherwise noted.

Hanwei's principal business operations are in two complementary segments of the oil and gas industry as an operator and developer of its own producing and exploratory oil and gas assets in Alberta and Manitoba and as a specialized pipe supplier to the industry, both in Canada and internationally.

• Total Company revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2019 increased to $2.6 million as compared to $1.6 million for the same period of the prior year. The $1.0 million increase was driven by increases in both FRP pipe revenue and oil and gas revenue.   
  • The pipe business revenue increased to $1.9 million as compared to $1.0 million for the same period of the prior year. The increase was mainly due to timing of projects in China and Canada with end users, and certain pipe orders that were produced during last quarter being shipped during the quarter.
  • Revenues net of royalties from the Company’s oil and gas business for the three months ended June 30, 2019 totaled approximately $0.6 million (equivalent to $64.35 per boe with a netback of $23.59 per boe) as compared to revenues net of royalties of approximately $0.6 million (equivalent to gross revenue of $62.49 per boe with a netback of $3.72 per boe) for the same period of the prior year. The Company produced approximately 122 boed for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to 104 boed for the same period of the prior year (the Leduc Lands were placed back on production in mid-May 2018 after shut-in for workovers and facility changes).
• Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was negative $0.2 million as compared to negative $0.7 million for the same period of the prior year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was due to increased sales in the FRP pipe business and production in the oil and gas business. 
• The Company had a loss from continuing operations of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to loss from continuing operations of $1.0 million for the same period of the prior year.
