The fourth quarter of Fiscal 2017 was our tenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year revenue growth, and we drilled more metres in Fiscal 2017 than any year since Fiscal 2012, the peak of the last cycle. While pricing remains competitive across the industry, we are seeing improvement in our new contracts, coinciding with our increasing drill utilization rates,&#8221; said&nbsp;Eric Alexandre, President and CEO of Orbit Garant. &#8220;We had expected to start realizing improved margins and earnings towards the end of Fiscal 2017, however, pricing on existing domestic contracts, lower than expected productivity, and increased employee training and project mobilization costs, primarily in&nbsp;Canada, have continued to impact the Company, as we continue to ramp up our operations to meet increased customer demand. Our investment in expanding our operations internationally over the last 18 months has also impacted our profitability, but through these investments, we have made strong progress in growing our revenue base and elevating our profile in our target international markets during this period, which has positioned us for future growth.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Looking ahead, with our sound balance sheet, expanded international operations, recent investments in hiring and training employees in&nbsp;Canada, and our continued focus on technological innovation, we are well positioned to capitalize as the mineral drilling sector continues to recover. We expect profitability to improve in Fiscal 2018 as productivity increases and a larger portion of our revenue comes from new, higher-priced contracts in both&nbsp;Canada&nbsp;and our international markets.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fourth Quarter Results<br><\/strong>For the three months ended&nbsp;June 30, 2017&nbsp;(&#8220;Q4 FY2017&#8221;) revenue totaled&nbsp;$37.4 million, an increase of&nbsp;$4.0 million, or 11.7%, from&nbsp;$33.4 million&nbsp;for the three-month period ended&nbsp;June 30, 2016&nbsp;(&#8220;Q4 FY2016&#8221;). Drilling&nbsp;Canada&nbsp;revenue was&nbsp;$30.4 million, up 12.2% from&nbsp;$27.1 million&nbsp;in Q4 FY2016, reflecting increased metres drilled during the quarter. Drilling International revenue was&nbsp;$6.9 million, an increase of 9.4% compared to&nbsp;$6.3 million&nbsp;in Q4 FY2016, primarily due to increased specialized drilling activity in&nbsp;Chile, partially offset by a decline in metres drilled in both&nbsp;Guyana&nbsp;and&nbsp;Kazakhstan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Orbit Garant&#8217;s fleet drilled a total of 376,201 metres in Q4 FY2017, an increase of 12.4% from 334,507&nbsp;metres drilled in Q4 FY2016. Consolidated average revenue per metre drilled was&nbsp;$99.03, compared to&nbsp;$99.82&nbsp;in Q4 FY2016. The decrease in consolidated average revenue per metre drilled reflects a decline in specialized drilling activity in&nbsp;Canada&nbsp;during the quarter, as specialized drilling is typically charged at a higher rate than conventional drilling. This decline was partially offset by increased specialized drilling activity in&nbsp;Chile&nbsp;during the quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gross profit for Q4 FY2017 was&nbsp;$2.4 million, compared to&nbsp;$4.3 million&nbsp;in Q4 FY2016. Gross margin for Q4&nbsp;FY2017 was 6.6%, down from 12.8% in Q4 FY2016. In accordance with IFRS, depreciation expenses totalling&nbsp;$1.9 million&nbsp;are included in cost of contract revenue for Q4 FY2017, compared to&nbsp;$2.3 million&nbsp;in Q4 FY2016. Adjusted gross margin, excluding depreciation expenses, was 11.8% in Q4 FY2017, compared to 19.7% in Q4 FY2016. The decrease in gross profit, gross margin and adjusted gross margin was primarily attributable to lower productivity and increased employee training and project mobilization costs in&nbsp;Canada, as the Company ramps up its operations to meet increased customer demand. The Company&#8217;s lower gross profit and margins in Q4 FY2017 also reflect lower drilling volumes in&nbsp;Guyana&nbsp;and&nbsp;Kazakhstan&nbsp;and a decrease in specialized drilling activity in&nbsp;Canada&nbsp;compared to Q4 FY2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>General and administrative (G&amp;A) expenses were&nbsp;$3.6 million&nbsp;(representing 9.7% of revenue) in Q4&nbsp;FY2017, compared to&nbsp;$3.7 million&nbsp;(representing 11.1% of revenue) in Q4 FY2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (&#8220;EBITDA&#8221;)<sup>1<\/sup>&nbsp;was&nbsp;$0.7 million&nbsp;in Q4 FY2017, compared to&nbsp;$7.9 million&nbsp;in Q4 FY2016. EBITDA in Q4 FY2016 includes a&nbsp;$5.0 million&nbsp;one-time gain resulting from negative goodwill associated with the acquisition of Captagua Ingenier\u00eda S.A. (now &#8220;OG Chile&#8221;), and&nbsp;$0.1 million&nbsp;of acquisition and integration costs. Excluding these items, adjusted EBITDA for Q4 FY2016 was&nbsp;$3.0 million. No negative goodwill was recorded in Q4 FY2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Company&#8217;s net loss for Q4 FY2017 was&nbsp;$1.6 million, or&nbsp;$0.05&nbsp;per share, compared to net earnings of&nbsp;$4.4&nbsp;million, or&nbsp;$0.12&nbsp;per share, in Q4 FY2016. Lower gross margins, discussed above, contributed to the Company&#8217;s net loss for Q4 FY2017. The Company&#8217;s net earnings for Q4 FY2016 include the one-time gain from negative goodwill and acquisition and integration costs indicated above. Excluding these items, net loss for Q4 FY2016 would have been approximately&nbsp;$0.5 million, or&nbsp;$0.02&nbsp;per share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fiscal 2017 Results<br><\/strong>For Fiscal 2017, the Company&#8217;s revenue totalled&nbsp;$125.2 million, compared to&nbsp;$107.5 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2016, representing an increase of&nbsp;$17.7 million, or 16.4%. Revenue growth was primarily attributable to an increase in domestic and international metres drilled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Domestic contract drilling revenue increased to&nbsp;$99.3 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2017, compared to&nbsp;$92.4 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2016, an increase of&nbsp;$6.9 million, or 7.4%, reflecting a higher number of metres drilled. International drilling revenue was&nbsp;$25.9&nbsp;million in Fiscal 2017, up 72.1% from&nbsp;$15.1 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2016. International revenue growth was primarily attributable to a full year of operations in&nbsp;Chile&nbsp;following the acquisition of Captagua in the second quarter of Fiscal 2016, and to a lesser extent, revenue from new projects in&nbsp;Ghana&nbsp;and&nbsp;Burkina Faso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During Fiscal&nbsp;2017, Orbit Garant drilled 1,293,350 metres, an increase of 12.3% from 1,152,102&nbsp;metres drilled in Fiscal&nbsp;2016. The growth in metres drilled reflects an increase in demand from customers in&nbsp;Canada&nbsp;and the Company&#8217;s expanded international drilling operations. The Company&#8217;s average revenue per metre drilled in Fiscal&nbsp;2017 was&nbsp;$96.53, up 5.6% from&nbsp;$91.40&nbsp;in Fiscal&nbsp;2016. The increase in average revenue per metre drilled is attributable to an increase in specialized drilling activity in&nbsp;Chile, which is priced at a higher rate than conventional drilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gross profit for Fiscal 2017 was&nbsp;$8.0 million, compared to&nbsp;$10.2 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2016. Gross margin for Fiscal 2017 was 6.4%, compared to 9.5% in Fiscal 2016. Adjusted gross margin, which excludes depreciation expenses, was 13.4% in Fiscal 2017, compared to 18.1% in Fiscal 2016. The decrease in gross profit, gross margin and adjusted gross margin was primarily attributable to lower productivity and increased employee training and project mobilization costs in&nbsp;Canada, as the Company ramps up its operations to meet increased customer demand, partially offset by increased higher margin international drilling activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EBITDA totalled&nbsp;$2.7 million in Fiscal 2017, compared to&nbsp;$11.1 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2016. EBITDA in Fiscal 2016 includes a one-time gain of&nbsp;$5.0 million&nbsp;related to negative goodwill associated with the Captagua acquisition, and acquisition and integration costs of&nbsp;$0.8 million. Excluding these items, adjusted EBITDA in Fiscal 2016 was&nbsp;$6.9 million. No negative goodwill was recorded in Fiscal 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Net loss in Fiscal 2017 was&nbsp;$5.9 million, or&nbsp;$0.17&nbsp;per share, compared to&nbsp;$0.2 million, or&nbsp;$0.01&nbsp;per share, in Fiscal 2016. Lower gross profit and margins, discussed above, contributed to the net loss in Fiscal 2017. The Company&#8217;s net loss for Fiscal 2016 includes the one-time gain from negative goodwill and acquisition and integration costs indicated above. Excluding these items, net loss for Fiscal 2016 would have been&nbsp;$4.7 million, or&nbsp;$0.13&nbsp;per share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During Fiscal 2017, the Company generated&nbsp;$7.0 million&nbsp;from financing activities, compared to&nbsp;$2.3 million&nbsp;in Fiscal 2016. The Company withdrew a net amount of&nbsp;$7.6 million&nbsp;during Fiscal 2017 on its secured, three-year revolving credit facility (the &#8220;Credit Facility&#8221;) with National Bank of Canada Inc. (the &#8220;Lender&#8221;), compared to a reimbursement of&nbsp;$0.4&nbsp;million in Fiscal 2016. In addition to the above, the Company provided a letter of credit to a bank of one of its subsidiaries of&nbsp;US$1.0 million&nbsp;(or approximately CAN$1.3 million) from the credit facility. As at&nbsp;June 30, 2017, the Company had&nbsp;$13.6 million&nbsp;drawn under the Credit Facility, compared to&nbsp;$7.4 million&nbsp;as at&nbsp;June 30, 2016, with the full amount re-classified from long-term debt to current debt, as the Credit Facility matures on&nbsp;December 19, 2017. Accordingly, working capital declined to&nbsp;$30.8 million&nbsp;from&nbsp;$42.9 million&nbsp;as at&nbsp;June 30, 2016. The Company is currently in discussions with the Lender to amend and renew the Credit Facility, at which point the debt would again be classified as long-term. In&nbsp;December 2016, the Company entered into a credit facility with Export Development Canada in the amount of&nbsp;$2.5&nbsp;million. The purpose of the loan was to assist in financing capital expenditure requirements for the Company&#8217;s international operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As at&nbsp;June 30, 2017, there were 36,094,919 common shares of Orbit Garant issued and outstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Orbit Garant&#8217;s audited consolidated financial statements and management&#8217;s discussion and analysis for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended&nbsp;June 30, 2017&nbsp;are available via the Company&#8217;s website at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.orbitgarant.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">www.orbitgarant.com<\/a>&nbsp;or SEDAR at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sedar.com\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">www.sedar.com<\/a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conference call<br><\/strong>Eric Alexandre, President and CEO, and&nbsp;Alain Laplante, Vice President and CFO, will host a conference call for analysts and investors on&nbsp;Thursday, September 7, 2017&nbsp;at&nbsp;10:00 a.m. (ET).
