CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING AND OUTLOOK
During the late stages of 2014, Cordy's executive recognized the effect of the decline in crude oil prices was going to be more severe than anticipated and began taking steps to prepare the Company for a prolonged decline in activity. Moving swiftly, and as part of its ongoing process to identify, examine and consider a range of strategic alternatives available to Cordy to enhance shareholder value, the Corporation completed several transactions to strengthen its balance sheet with a focus on significantly reducing corporate debt and shedding non-core assets.
The transactions to date have included:
In addition to the transactions discussed above, the Corporation will continue to rationalize its business to align with current economic conditions. This will include managing fleet size, headcount, and all discretionary spending. These changes will allow the Corporation to focus on its core business, the Environmental Services segment, diversify its customer base, mitigate seasonality and garner more favourable utility of equipment and personnel.

Cordy uses the measures Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Impairment and Share Based Compensation (EBITDAS) in this news release.
