31, 2013.


Revenue from continuing operations for the nine month period totaled
$13,890,000. Net income from continuing operations for the nine month period

nine month period ended January 31, 2012 were $11,455,000 and $1,170,000. The
increase in net income over the previous period is largely due to the
recognition of a non-cash item of deferred tax recovery and a deferred tax
charge for a net increase of approximately $600,000.


Total revenue of $13,890,000 was comprised of $7,570,000 from Environmental
Services, $4,230,000 from Vacuum Services and $2,090,000 from Hauling Services.
The Hauling Services division only commenced operation at the end of August in
2012, being the date Porterco Oilfield Services Inc. commenced operations. This
new division operates out of Slave Lake and is expected to grow substantially
over the next several years.


The Corporation continues to look at new expansion and acquisition opportunities
in the environmental and oilfield services area.
