Geodrill Pre-announces Certain Third Quarter Financial Matters

30.10.2023  |  CNW

-DECISION NOT TO DECLARE A SECOND SEMI-ANNUAL DIVIDEND IN 2023-

TORONTO, Oct. 30, 2023 - Geodrill Ltd. ("Geodrill" or the "Company") (TSX: GEO), is pre-announcing certain items impacting the Company's quarterly earnings, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA")1, and earnings per share and the decision not to declare a second semi-annual dividend in 2023. All figures are reported in U.S. dollars ($), unless otherwise indicated.

In the third quarter of 2023 the Company expects to record an unaudited non-cash expected credit loss provision of approximately $3.6M on a pre-tax basis related to the aging of the Company's trade receivables in respect of certain customers. The Company also expects in the third quarter unaudited revenue of approximately $30M as a result of slower than expected drilling activity in West Africa and South America. As a result, the Company's earnings, EBITDA, and earnings per share will be impacted and the Company expects to record a net loss in the third quarter of 2023.

The Board of Directors has therefore decided not to declare the second semi-annual dividend in 2023. The dividend position will be reviewed again in 2024. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

The unaudited results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023, will be released on Monday, November 13, 2023.

(1) EBITDA = earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
