High Arctic Energy Services Swings to First Quarter Profits

High Arctic Energy Services (HWO.TO) after the close on Thursday said it swung to a profit in first quarter on higher revenue and strong customers demand.The company earned $855,000 in the first quarter compared to a year-prior loss of $120,000. The increase was a result of Team Snubbing's "strong performance" in the quarter and the gain on asset dispositions, While its operating loss stood $204,000 in the quarter compared to a loss of $128,000 in Q1 2025.Revenue rose 17% to $2.74 million. The company attributed revenue increase to "improved overall customer demand combined with the impact of customer sales mix".In its outlook, High Arctic said it anticipates firm customer activity levels in central Alberta for the remainder of 2026, as certain oil and gas producers continue to ramp their capital spending as they drill, complete and tie-in their Duvernay wells which are conveniently located in close proximity to our primary operations in Red Deer.While global economic uncertainty persists, Canada's energy industry has opportunities for future growth, as evidenced by recent energy infrastructure developments and a new and seemingly more aggressive mandate at the federal level for Canada to become a global energy superpower, the company said."Our rental services business delivered solid financial and operational results in Q1 2026 despite volatile crude oil and natural gas pricing and lower activity levels and rig count. We witnessed an acceleration of customer activity in central Alberta, driven by increased development in the Duvernay near our Red Deer operations. Our current service offerings and facility locations position us to provide our customers with the assets they need while allowing us to maintain an exceptional level of customer service," said Lonn Bate, interim CEO.

Westport Fuel Systems Up 0.25% In US Even As It Reminds on Being a Going Concern and Q1 Net Loss Doubles YoY

Westport Fuel Systems (WPRT.TO, WPRT), which reported financial results for the fourth quarter only last month, after trade Thursday again raised concerns about its ability to continue as a going concerns while reporting its net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 had doubled from the year-prior period, although not by as much as expected, even with lower revenues.On liquidity and being a going concern, as at March 31, the company said it had cash and cash equivalents of US$24.5 million and long-term debt of $1.9 million from Export Development Canada, of which all is current."Based on our projected capital expenditures, debt servicing obligations and operating requirements under our current business plan, we are projecting that our cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund our operations through the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of this MD&A. These conditions raise substantial doubt about Westport's ability continue as a going concern within one year after the date of this MD&A is issued," the company said."Management is currently evaluating several different options to improve Westport's liquidity position, including raising funds from the public markets and borrowing debt or other financing alternatives. These plans are not final and are subject to market and other conditions not within our control. As such, there can be no assurances that Westport will be successful in obtaining sufficient funding. Accordingly, we concluded under the accounting standards that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about Westport's ability to continue as a going concern," it added.For Q1, Westport reported a loss from continuing operations of US$5.7 million, or US$0.33 per share, compared to a loss of US$5.3 million, or $0.14, for the same quarter last year.

As planned, the Heavy-Duty OEM segment ended its transitional service agreement with Cespira at the end of Q2 2025 resulting in reduction in revenue when comparing period over period, the company said."We are seeing continued momentum in our Cespira joint venture with Volvo Group reflected in a 33% increase in revenue compared to the same quarter in 2025. This performance, includes incremental volumes delivered to a second OEM for a truck trial, is becoming increasingly material to our overall results and reinforces the growing market acceptance of Cespira's HPDITM fuel system technology. Favorable LNG pricing dynamics in Europe and other existing markets are also supporting increased demand, providing a solid foundation for continued growth through 2026," said Dan Sceli, Chief Executive Officer, in a statement.Sceli added: "The European LNG heavy-duty truck market is anticipated to show strong annual growth. Cognitive Market Research highlights a 30% global LNG heavy-duty truck market share for Europe, and projects a 12.5% compound annual growth rate through 2031. Tightening emissions regulations, expanding LNG refueling infrastructure, strong fleet economics and technology improvements all reinforce the use of LNG for long-haul trucking in Europe.""At the same time," Sceli said, "we are advancing our high-pressure CNG storage solutions into the North American market, as demonstrated by our participation at ACT Expo. As we showcased this platform, we demonstrated what sets us apart -- not just innovation, but the ability to bring it to market where it matters most, and fleets and OEMs are starting to notice. It was clear from the volume of interactions this year compared to previous years that it is an exciting time for Westport. We are making clear steps forward in expanding our technology reach, where we see growing demand for high-performance, lower-emission alternatives. The show's success was a clear signal that we are advancing our high-pressure CNG storage solution into a North American market with real momentum, positioning Westport to capture long-term growth opportunities in the global heavy-duty transportation market."Our High-Pressure Controls business is seeing momentum increasing following the opening of our expanded product development and manufacturing facility in Cambridge, Ontario and our new China Hydrogen Innovation Center and Manufacturing facility in Changzhou, China. We have demonstrated improved results for first quarter of 2026 with a 21% increase in revenue in this business, compared with the same period last year."Shares in WPRT rose $0.04 or 1.5% to $2.75 today in Canada.
