KNIGHTHAWK INC. ANNOUNCES 2020 SECOND QUARTER OPERATING RESULTS
On July 5, 2013, KnightHawk Inc. (“KnightHawk”) announced that it had ceased operating its rail and rail related operations. Toward that end, KnightHawk’s indirectly wholly owned subsidiary company, Kelowna Pacific Railway Ltd. (“KPR”), made an Assignment into Bankruptcy (the “Filing”). Boale, Wood & Company Ltd. was named Trustee under the Filing. Further information about the Filing is available at www.boalewood.ca.
As a result of the above decision, KPR, and KnightHawk’s remaining subsidiaries, discontinued operations and commenced the process toward an orderly disposition of its rail and rail related assets. Net proceeds were used in part to repay any secured debt which was outstanding. The assets and liabilities of discontinued rail and rail related operations, and rail and rail related operating results, have been reclassified in the consolidated financial statements as Discontinued Rail Related Operations. Earnings (loss) from discontinued rail related operations for the three and six months ended April 30, 2020 were ($27,000) and ($50,000), respectively, compared to ($27,000) and ($48,000) for the same period in 2019. The earnings (loss) from discontinued rail related operations for the three and six months ended April 30, 2020 included gains (losses) on the sale of assets of discontinued rail related operations of $Nil and $Nil, respectively, compared to $Nil and $2,000 for the same period in 2019.
Earnings (loss) from Discontinued Air Operations for the three and six months ended April 30, 2020 and 2019 were $Nil.
By mid 2013, historic weakness in the forest products sector proved too challenging for the Company as a whole, ultimately resulting in the discontinuation of rail and rail related operations and the above Filing in July. Since the Filing date, the Trustee has had, and does have going forward, full authority and responsibility over KPR and its ultimate disposition, and timing of same, in whatever form. The Board of Directors and management of KnightHawk continue to oversee and direct the affairs of KnightHawk and its remaining subsidiaries, with a view to safeguarding the Company’s assets and maximizing shareholder value over the long term.
