EDGE RESOURCES INC.
Edge Resources Inc. Announces Results for the Three Month Period
ended June 30, 2015
Edge Resources Inc. ("Edge" or the "Company"), is pleased to
announce its audited results for the three month period ended 30
June 2015 ("Q1"), highlights of which are set out below.
Highlights for the period:
-- Sales volumes were 446 boe/d compared to 612 boe/d in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 and 613 boe/d in the first quarter of
fiscal 2015; the decrease from the prior quarter is due primarily
to operational issues experienced during the quarter in Eye Hill,
most of which have been remedied subsequent to period end.
-- Due to continued low commodity prices and lower production
volumes, cash flows continued to decline.
-- Average achieved oil prices increased 35% to $46.21 for the
three months to 30 June 2015 and average achieved natural gas
prices increased from $2.51/mcf to $2.64 for the equivalent
periods.
Brad Nichol, President and CEO of Edge, commented, "There is no
denying it has been a difficult year for all oil and gas operators,
big and small. Within the context of a tumultuous industry dynamic,
Edge has acted very conservatively with respect to capital
expenditures and cost management, and will continue to do so while
commodity prices remain low and/or unstable. Notwithstanding the
above, we are eager to work with our new capital partner to take
advantage of this industry downturn through what is expected to be
a favorable and active acquisition market." Nichol added, "In the
midst of falling WTI oil prices, Edge's received heavy oil price
has had some reprieve, as the "heavy oil discount" to WTI has
dramatically improved during the same period. Additionally, the
Canadian dollar has weakened versus the US dollar during this time
resulting in a lower oil pricing impact for Canadian producers.
Both of these factors have lessened the impact of falling light oil
prices on Canadian heavy oil producers."

Notes to the Condensed Interim Financial Statements
Three ended June 30, 2015
1. General business description
Edge Resources Inc. ("Edge" or the "Company") is engaged in the
acquisition of, exploration for, development of and production of
oil and natural gas. Edge is a publicly traded company on the TSX
Venture Exchange under the symbol "EDE" and the Alternative
Investment Market London Stock Exchange under the symbol "EDG",
incorporated and domiciled in Canada. The address of business of
the Company is Suite 1400, 717 - 7(th) Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta,
Canada, T2P 0Z3. These financial statements were approved and
authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on August 31,
2015.
These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis which presumes that the Company will be
able to discharge its obligations and realize its assets in the
normal course of business. The Company had a loss and comprehensive
loss of $0.8 million for the three month period ended June 30,
2015. As at June 30, 2015, the Company had a working capital
deficiency of $8.0 million (March 31, 2015 - $7.7 million) that
includes $7.3 million (March 31, 2015 - $6.4 million) in bank debt
(excluding derivative assets/liabilities if any).
As per note 5, the Company has a revolving credit facility with
a $17.0 million limit, and as of June 30, 2015, there was $9.7
million available for use. However, given the amount available for
use under the facility is also limited by the "senior debt to cash
flow" ratio, the actual limit will vary on a period by period
basis. The calculations of the applicable ratios as of June 30,
2015 are presented in note 16 and the senior debt to cash flow
ratio was not met at June 30, 2015. The breach has been
communicated to the bank however because the Company is currently
in the process of completing its regular annual review of the
facilities no waiver will be sought for this breach. As a result of
significantly weaker future commodity price forecasts, Management
expects the lending limit on the revolving facility to be reduced
although the amount of the reduction cannot be predicted at this
time. As part of the regular annual review, management is also in
discussion with the bank as to appropriate future financial
covenants including the senior debt to cash flow covenant.
Management actively forecasts applicable cash flows and will
conduct an appropriate capital program based on estimated future
credit facility availability. Management believes, despite the
current significant decrease in world oil prices and its effect on
Company cash flows, that with its current expected credit facility,
equity raised subsequent to period end, and its near-term future
equity-raising plans, that the Company will generate sufficient
cash flows to meet its foreseeable obligations in the normal course
of operations. Management has significantly delayed the Company's
capital programs until the pricing environment further improves and
has and continues to work on strategies to reduce general and
administrative and operating costs subsequent to June 30, 2015.
Management has been and continues to be active in seeking
alternative sources of funding to help accelerate its planned
capital expenditure program, and to ultimately reduce its total
debt. The Company cannot provide any assurance that sufficient cash
flows will be generated from operating activities to reduce its
working capital deficiency and to carry out its planned capital
expenditure program.
The above-noted factors describe matters and conditions that
indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast
significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent upon its ability to attain profitable operations,
generate sufficient funds to continue its exploration and
development activities, to repay its debts as they come due, and
continue to obtain sufficient capital from investors or other
sources of financing to meet its current and future
obligations.
Management considers the Company is a going concern and has
prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
