Altius Minerals Corporation (TSX: ALS) Reports Quarterly Attributable Revenue of $8,410,000 and Adjusted EBITDA of $6,403,000; Declares Quarterly Dividend
(firmenpresse) - ST. JOHN'S, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR -- (Marketwired) -- 09/12/16 -- Altius Minerals Corporation ("Altius" or the "Corporation") (TSX: ALS) reports first quarter attributable revenue(1) of $8,410,000 or $0.19 per share and adjusted EBITDA(2) of $6,403,000 or $0.15 per share compared to attributable revenue of $9,785,000 or $0.25 per share and adjusted EBITDA of $6,094,000 or $0.15 per share for the prior year comparable period.
The decline in revenue was caused primarily by a lack of royalty payment from Voisey's Bay, weaker potash prices and lower volumes of electrical coal but offset by higher revenue from 777 and the beginning of payments from Chapada. Despite the lower revenue, adjusted EBITDA was higher because of one-time expenses related to the Callinan acquisition which were included in the prior year period.
Net earnings attributable to common shareholders of $3,049,000 or $0.07 per share for the three months ended July 31, 2016 compares to a net loss of $1,632,000 or $(0.04) per share for the same period last year. Current year earnings were positively affected by gains on sales of investments of $5,184,000 and were negatively affected by one-time financing charges on the retirement of debt of $ 1,874,000.
A summary of the financial results is included in the following table.
Additional information on the Corporation's results of operations is included in the Corporation's MD&A, and Financial Statements, which were filed on SEDAR today and are also available on the Corporation's website at .
