Financial Summary
Arianne is a development-stage company and, as such, did not generate revenue or positive cash flow in Q2 2021. In the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred net losses of $1.5 million (M) for the three-month period and $5.9M for the six-month period. For the same period in 2020, the net loss incurred was $0.8M for the three-months period and $2.6M for the six-month period. The higher losses are explained by borrowing costs that were previously capitalized. Since the Company is currently in a period of raising funding for its project development through financing and offtake agreements and, is not carrying on substantial technical work, the Company is expensing its borrowing costs until further technical work is done on the project.

Arianne's Management Discussion and Analysis and condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2021 are available on the Company's website and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
