Fountain Asset Corp. (TSXV:FA) (“Fountain” or the “Company”) would like to announce its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 (“Q2/21”).

“The Company posted a small return on Shareholders’ Equity quarter over quarter during Q2/21 as the small cap space came under pressure after a strong start to the year. Fountain has posted a solid first half of the year with Shareholders’ Equity growing by 28%. During the quarter, we continued to see some of our private holdings come public, including Gage Growth Corp. We continue to believe we offer a strong value proposition for our investors by giving them a vehicle to access investments that they would otherwise not have access to,” said Andrew Parks, CEO of Fountain.

Highlights from the three months ended June 30, 2021:

  • Adjusted net asset value (“ANAV”) of $28.69 million ($0.46 per share) at June 30, 2021 compared to $28.32 million ($0.46 per share) at March 31, 2021, representing a flat return quarter over quarter on a per share basis. ANAV reflects the net asset value plus the amount of available tax loss pools available;
  • Net comprehensive income of $0.48 million compared to net comprehensive income of $0.33 million for three months ended June 30, 2020 (“Q2/20”);

During Q2/21, the company saw an increase from its portfolio of publicly traded companies which included increases from Emerita Resources. These gains were offset by declines in Kwesst Micro Systems and Simply Inc.

The increase in operating expenses to $0.38 million for Q2/21 compared to $0.21 million in the comparative quarter was driven by higher accounting and legal expenses.

The Company saw net comprehensive income of $0.48 million for Q2/21 compared to net comprehensive income of $0.33 million for Q2/20. As at June 30, 2021, the Company’s adjusted net assets were valued at $28.69 million or $0.46 per share compared to $23.46 million or $0.40 per share at December 31, 2020.
