Lonestar West Announces Q1 2017 Financial Results
(firmenpresse) - SYLVAN LAKE, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/29/17 -- Lonestar West Inc. (TSX VENTURE: LSI) today announced the financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.
The results for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 continue to reflect the impact of the significant pricing pressure from the heightened competition for non-energy related projects. There was an increase in the Canadian utilization which did not translate into an increase in revenue as a result of the low rates. The ongoing delay in contract negotiations with a major account in the Unites States also had a direct impact on the Company overall. The focus of the Company will be to continue to reduce operating costs and improve margins which have suffered as a result of the low rates and higher costs.
Key points for the three months ended March 31, 2017 include:
"The results for the first quarter of 2017 did not reflect the efforts we made to improve our profit margin. The cost cutting was completed by mid-March but did not have sufficient time to realize the benefits, and the continued decline of the revenues offset the impact of the cuts we have made. As a result we have taken additional steps to continue making cuts throughout the organization." commented James Horvath, President and CEO of Lonestar. "We view the potential acquisition by Clean Harbors, Inc. in a positive light and believe it is the correct strategy for all stakeholders."
The Company is continuing to intensify its focus on cost control while maintaining superior service to its customer base. In addition, the Company is continually assessing the location of its fleet and redeploys assets to areas less impacted by the energy markets.
