DevCorp Capital Inc. Announces Acquisition of Good to Go Rentals Ltd. and Neigum Hot Oilers Ltd. as Its Qualifying Transaction

22/06/2013 12:30am

Marketwired Canada


NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. WIRE
SERVICES 


DevCorp Capital Inc. (TSX VENTURE:DCC.P) ("DevCorp") is pleased to announce that
it has entered into a letter of intent dated May 21, 2013 (the "Letter
Agreement") to acquire Good to Go Rentals Ltd. ("GTGR") and Neigum Hot Oilers
Ltd. ("GTGT" and together with GTGR, "GTG"). GTGR is a private Saskatchewan
oilfield rental and services company based out of Kindersley, Saskatchewan and
GTGT is a private Saskatchewan trucking company based out of Kindersley,
Saskatchewan. If completed, the proposed transaction will constitute DevCorp's
Qualifying Transaction as set forth in Policy 2.4 of the TSX Venture Exchange
("TSXV" or the "Exchange").


The Proposed Transaction

The structure of the proposed arm's length transaction will be determined by
mutual agreement of the parties and is expected to take the form of a reverse
take-over, three cornered amalgamation, merger, plan of arrangement or other
form of business combination (the "Proposed Transaction") resulting in the
creation of a new company ("Resultco"), with a name to be determined by the
parties and at a future date. The parties have agreed that the structure will
ultimately permit (i) the holders of GTG shares (the "GTG Shares") to
collectively receive 60,000,000 common shares of Resultco (each one a "Resultco
Share") for all of the issued and outstanding GTG Shares, at a deemed value of
$0.20 per Resultco Share for aggregate deemed consideration of $12,000,000; (ii)
the holders of GTG Shares to collectively receive, cash payable in the aggregate
consideration of $12,000,000; and (iii) subject to Resultco having achieved
certain milestones, performance bonus of up to $1,000,000 in cash and up to
$1,000,000 Resultco Shares, payable and issuable at a price based on a 90 day
average trading price of Resultco Shares, on each of the first and second
anniversary of closing. 


GTGT has been operating from Kindersley Saskatchewan since 1991, originally
operating as a hot oiler and general oil field hauling company. In the late
1990's GTGT started offering a limited equipment rental service with their
trucking operation. Due to the success of the rental business, GTGR was formed
with an expanded rental offering in 2005. Currently, GTGT provides a full suite
of equipment rentals including tanks, rig matting, blow back tanks, drilling
surface rentals, generators and light towers. GTGR is controlled by Norm Neigum
and Dean Dorsett and GTGT is controlled by Darla Dorsett. 


Private Placement

In conjunction with the Proposed Transaction, it is contemplated that the
parties will complete a private placement (the "Offering") for net proceeds of a
minimum of $8,000,000. The Offering shall consist of a combination of issuance
of Resultco Shares at a price of $0.20 per Resultco Share and debt financing,
with such debt financing not to exceed 60% of the gross amount raised under the
Offering. Any agent under the Offering will be entitled to receive a cash
commission and agent's options. 


DevCorp shall also be permitted, subject to the maximum amount that may be
raised pursuant to the debt financing, to issue convertible debentures in
conjunction with the Offering or Proposed Transaction. If convertible debentures
are issued under the Offering, further news release will be issued setting forth
its terms.

Notes:                                                                      
                                                                            
(1)       Expenses have been adjusted to account for disproportionate       
          management wages and bonuses that were used by the owners as a    
          means to remove excess cash from the businesses in 2012 and 2013  
          Trailing Twelve Months ("TTM"), which is not expected to re-occur 
          in the future. These wages and bonuses totalled $2,385,000 in 2012
          and $3,145,000 in 2013 TTM for GTGR. Management wages of $240,000 
          for 2012 and $264,000 for 2013 TTM have been added into the       
          expenses for GTGR, which DevCorp believes are more reflective of  
          industry wages and bonuses. The net adjustment to expenses in 2012
          is $2,145,000 and 2013 is $2,881,000 for GTGR. As a result of the 
          lower expenses, both adjusted Net Income and adjusted EBITDA      
          figures are higher in the adjusted 2012 and 2013 TTM figures.     
                                                                            
(2)       EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and       
          amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest, taxes, 
          depreciation and amortization and is adjusted for other non-      
          recurring items. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial
          measures and do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and  
          is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures        
          presented by other companies. DevCorp believes that EBITDA and    
          adjusted EBITDA are useful supplemental measures, which provide an
          indication of the results generated by GTGR's primary business    
          activities prior to consideration of how those activities are     
          financed, amortized or taxed. Readers are cautioned, however, that
          EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an          
          alternative to comprehensive income (loss) determined in          
          accordance with GAAP as an indicator of GTGR's financial          
          performance.

          and bonuses totalled $878,618 in 2012 and $306,658 in 2013 TTM for
          GTGT. Management wages of $200,000 for 2012 and $220,000 for 2013 
          TTM have been added into the expenses for GTGT which DevCorp      
          believes are more reflective of industry wages and bonuses. The   
          net adjustment to expenses in 2012 is $678,618 and $86,658 in 2013
          for GTGT. As a result of the lower expenses, both adjusted Net    
          Income and adjusted EBITDA figures are higher in the adjusted 2012
          and 2013 TTM figures.
