The Corporation’s loss and comprehensive loss
for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $764,600 (June 30, 2021
- $625,654). When compared to six months ended June 30, 2021, there
is an increase in loss of $138,946 resulting primarily from the
following:
- Operating costs increase of
$174,051 to $315,210 (June 30, 2021 – $141,159) resulting from
the recommissioning of the Farrell Creek gas plant and associated
facilities required to produce the existing joint venture Montney
wells;
- Professional fees increase of
$53,225 to $132,471 (2021 – $79,246) mostly due to higher
audit costs;
- Investor relations and filing fees,
and Insurance costs increase of $18,108 to $64,727 (2021 -
$46,619);
- Share-based compensation of $71,029
(2021 – $41,029) increase of $30,000 due to the timing of
vesting of the stock options.
Offsetting these cost increases was the Gain on
sale of property, plant and equipment for the proceeds of $147,750
on the Farrell Creek Gething fully depreciated idle equipment.
