The outlook for the remainder of 2013 remains positive, however, this will depend on the ability of the Company to contract additional 2013 sales contracts. The Company has put in place $6.4 million of contracted work, that is currently completed or scheduled for completion in 2013. The Company has also placed numerous bids on other projects currently scheduled to be completed in 2013, but is unable to ascertain at this time how many of these projects, if any, will result in 2013 contracted work for the Company.
This press release should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Management Discussion and Analysis for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2013, both of which can be found on SEDAR.
