Gemini Corporation (TSX VENTURE:GKX) announces its first quarter financial results for the period ended March 31, 2013. Revenue in the first quarter of 2013 totalled $17,350,000, which was a 14% decline from the $20,184,000 achieved in the first quarter of 2012. This reduction was primarily related to slower than expected activity in the Field Solutions segment as a result of clients choosing to delay the commencement of various project awards into the second quarter. The softening of economic conditions in the energy sector of western Canada driven by constrained commodity prices and product transportation challenges has contributed to these decisions. Management believes the delays will serve to compress much of the expected work into the remaining 2013 quarters rather than extending the work further out into 2014. As for the Engineering segment, the backlog remains strong and is continuing to be augmented through the successful relationship building efforts of the business development team. Revenue across the organization is expected to strengthen in the second quarter and remain at elevated levels through to the end of the year. First quarter gross profit for 2013 was $2,443,000 compared to $3,396,000 in the same period of the prior year. Margin compression experienced in the first quarter was a result of lower than planned utilization rates within both segments of the business. The core staffing levels were maintained to avoid jeopardizing the Corporation's ability to respond to the commencement of planned projects. This resulted in some short term profitability challenges, but will prove to be less costly than having to recruit and train personnel in the second quarter. The Corporation's 2013 first quarter net loss was $370,000 (0.7 cents per share) compared to a net income of $185,000 (0.5 cents per share) in the same period last year. "The first quarter results were a disappointment given the size of the backlog we entered 2013 with," stated Doug Lautermilch, Gemini's President and CEO. "Achieving profitability in 2012 was a significant turning point for our organization, and I am therefore not satisfied with our first quarter performance. The market uncertainties are very real for our clients and their changing priorities are understandable, but it doesn't make the negative impact on our business any more palatable. We are expecting to recover the first quarter loss in the second quarter and then continue on with a very active 2013 work schedule that is projected to generate improved earnings over last year."
