Second Quarter Results
(three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with three months ended June 30, 2021)

  • Total Q2 revenue was $17.1 million compared to $3.6 million as operations were opened in all locations in 2022 whereas in 2021, operations were only starting to resume in certain regions;

  • Revenue from contract surface rentals and the ASHL represented approximately two-thirds of total surface revenue as demand in these two product areas remains strong;

  • Business activity in restaurants and concessions increased compared to Q1; however, they still were not at 100% capacity in all regions due to labour supply issues being faced in the hospitality industry;

  • Significant maintenance projects, some of which were deferred from the previous two years were completed during the quarter;

  • Total G&A expenses of $1.8 million increased by $0.4 million or 32.2% mainly due to the centralization of our sales and customer service team members;

  • Operating earnings from operations was $1.9 million for the quarter compared to a loss of $1.4 million a year ago; and

  • After recording $2.2 million related to depreciation, finance costs, income tax recoveries and other miscellaneous items, net loss for the period was $0.2 million or $0.02 a share compared to a loss of $2.6 million or $0.20 a share in 2021.

(six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with six months ended June 30, 2021)

  • Total operating expenses of $25.8 million increased by $13.5 million due to the full resumption of operations in 2022;

  • G&A expenses of $3.4 million increased by $0.7 million or 24.3% mainly due to the centralization of our sales and customer service team members;

"The three months ended June 30, 2022 marked the first quarter since the end of 2019 in which all of our sports complexes were able to operate with no interruptions related to COVID-19 public health orders or entry restrictions due to vaccination requirements. This was a huge burden lifted from our business operations and it showed right away in our results as same-facility surface revenue returned to levels comparable to Q2 2019, the last pre-pandemic year," said Joey St-Aubin, Canlan's CEO. He also stressed, "Our team has done an outstanding job, especially in light of the labour shortfalls the service sector continues to face. We are now focused on wrapping up the summer league, tournament, and camp season while starting up the fall/winter league registration season. Though very early in this process, registrations look strong so far and we'll continue to push towards pre-pandemic levels of business activity in all areas, including food & beverage and sports store operations."

Dividend Policy

When the COVID-19 pandemic began, measures were implemented by management to preserve cash balances. Given this, combined with the austerity that was asked of our employees, directors, our customers, our suppliers and our financial partners, Canlan's Board of Directors suspended the payment of dividends on March 24, 2020 and will continue to do so until further notice. Canlan's Board of Directors reviews the Corporation's dividend policy on a quarterly basis and will continue to monitor this situation and respond accordingly as we work towards the resumption of full business operations.

Canlan's financial statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis for the period ended June 30, 2022 will be available via SEDAR on or before August 12, 2022 and through the Company's website, www.canlansports.com.
