Kolibri Global Energy's (KEI.TO) net income dropped 30% year over year in the first quarter, the company said Thursday.
Kolibri booked a net income of US$4.0 million, or $0.11 per share, in the three months ended March 31, falling from $5.8 million, or $0.16 per share, posted a year ago.
Analysts expected Kolibri to report earnings of $0.17 per share, according to a consensus estimate compiled by FactSet.
The company attributed the decline to a $2.9 million mark-to-market unrealized loss on commodity contracts due to the significant increase in oil prices.
Revenue jumped to a record $19.6 million in the first quarter from 16.4 million last year, driven by higher production and higher average prices.
Average production rose 15% to 4,685 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) from 4,077 boe/d in the previous year.
