TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / May 25, 2021 / SusGlobal Energy Corp. ("SusGlobal") or (the "Company") (OTCQB:SNRG), the developer of SusGro, a revolutionary pathogen-free organic liquid fertilizer and LEADERS IN THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY®, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021 and provided an update on its operational progress.

Recent Highlights

  • On February 10, 2021, the Company signed an Agreement of Purchase and Sale (the "APS") for certain assets for $3,578,400 (C$4,500,000), including a vendor take-back mortgage of $1,590,400 (C$2,000,000) at an annual interest rate of 2% maturing two years after closing. A deposit of $159,040 (C$200,000) was paid by the Company on February 10, 2021. The APS was amended on April 8, 2021, to revise the closing date to June 4, 2021, subject to successful completion of the due diligence process and the completion of the Phase II Environmental Site Assessment at a cost of $39,601 (C$49,800), plus applicable harmonized sales taxes, expected on or before May 19, 2021. On May 20, 2021, the Company and the vendor signed a waiver and amending agreement, waiving the due diligence process and revising the closing date to June 16, 2021.
  • On April 8, 2021, the Company completed the purchase of its International Prostar Truck and Trout River Hy-Cube, 53ft wide with a 125.5 cubic yard capacity hauling trailer for a total purchase price of $173,622 (C$218,338), plus the applicable harmonized sales taxes and administrative costs. The Company paid deposits of $39,118 (C$49,193) on this purchase and financed the balance over a period of forty-eight months at a monthly principal and interest payment of $3,659 (C$4,601) at an interest rate of 4.95% per annum.
  • On May 7, 2021, the Company received a signed letter of intent for the purchase of the shares of two corporations which own proprietary processes, manufacture liquid organic fertilizers and other products. The total purchase price will be $15,904,000 (C$20,000,000) consisting of fifty percent in cash and fifty percent in common stock of the Company. The transaction is set to close on August 31, 2021.

Revenue decreased by 44.99% during the first quarter of 2021 to $192,660 compared to the first quarter of 2020 in the amount of $350,197, primarily due to changes in the customer base including an expiring contract at prior year-end and reductions in certain waste disposed of by several customers.

We continue to process municipal organic waste streams, diverting them from landfills, while producing regenerative products such as Earth's Journey® Organic Compost, as part of our Circular Economy model. We have confidence in a revenue ramp up this year," said Marc Hazout, Executive Chairman, President and CEO of SusGlobal Energy Corp. "Our goal is to complete our regional strategy with a second facility and the commercialization of our proprietary organic liquid fertilizer in order to increase revenue and cash flow, maximizing shareholder value with an objective to up-list to a major exchange."
