(firmenpresse) - WINNIPEG, MANITOBA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/30/16 -- Empire Industries Ltd.

"I am pleased to report that Empire's overall strategy is progressing as planned and that the strategic initiatives we are working through will propel our Company forward in an exciting, profitable and growing manner," said Guy Nelson, CEO. "The first quarter had challenges on three fronts. Our media-based attractions group was incredibly busy, progressing on 22 active projects, adding some very interesting business development initiatives, and fitting up our Orlando facility. In contrast, our steel fabrication segment shrank its operations to match what we see as a very difficult construction environment in Alberta. Our spin-out of Tornado Hydrovac Trucks were very active preparing for the launch of a more aggressive business plan deploying $10 million of fresh capital and this division consumed corporate resources to position us for an Empire shareholder vote June 21st."
Summary of the First Quarter 2016 results
1 Adjusted earnings (loss) before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) is not defined by IFRS. The definition of Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account the Group's share of profit of an associate investment, gains and losses on the disposal of assets, fair value changes in foreign currency forward contracts and non-cash components of stock based compensation. Adjusted EBIT is the result of the Group's Adjusted EBITDA less depreciation and amortization expenses.
