 Operational Highlights for Q2 2009 and YTD:

  • Investment portfolio grew to $40.7 million compared to $28.6 million at December 31, 2008. Growth was the result of net invested capital of $5.5 million and $6.6 million unrealized gains in the market value of the investments.
  • One Earth Farms seeded 12,000 acres of crops at three First Nations farms in Saskatchewan, consisting of 2/3 canola and 1/3 wheat and barley. The fall harvest should begin in September and grain sales thereafter.
  • Waseca Energy�s oil revenues (net of royalties) grew by 154% to $753 thousand from $296 thousand in the first quarter of 2009.

�We believe that the global economy will deteriorate further but will also be subject to extreme volatility. The Company�s strong cash balance securely positions us to take advantage of this period of prolonged economic weakness. As well, we aim to build value for our shareholders by focusing on long-term supply/demand trends within the resource sector and on building, financing and supporting our current subsidiaries,� said Kevin Bambrough, President and CEO of Sprott Resource Corp. �Since our overall economic outlook remains bearish, we will continue to maintain a conservative investment approach and seek to capitalize on pockets of strength.�

 

Financial Review

 

Working Capital

As at June 30, 2009, the Company had current assets of $240.8 million, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents ($73.5 million), Government of Canada T-bills ($98.5 million) and gold and silver bullion ($61.9 million). Current liabilities of $3.2 million consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities ($3.0 million) and capital tax payable ($230 thousand).

 

Working capital decreased to $237.6 million from $246.2 million at December 31, 2008.  The decrease in working capital is a result of net purchases of public securities, the purchase of property, plant and equipment and operating losses at One Earth Farms and Waseca.

 

Net Assets

As at the end of Q2 2009, net assets increased to $291.3 million from $139.1 million at the end of Q2 2008 and from $284.8 million at the end of December 31, 2008. Net assets per share were $3.55 at June 30, 2009.

 

Net Revenue

Waseca�s oil sales are currently the Company�s only operating revenue. Net revenue for Q2 2009 was $753 thousand compared to nil in Q2 2008. 2009 YTD net revenue was $1.0 million compared to nil for the same period in the prior year.

 

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses, including general and administrative expenses, management fees, and incentive fees, for Q2 2009 increased to $4.0 million from $1.7 million in Q2 2008. Operating expenses increased to $7.2 million for the 2009 YTD period from $2.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating expenses is primarily related to the consolidation of Waseca and One Earth Farms and their expanding operations.

 

As at June 30, 2009, the Company had 82,007,224 common shares issued and outstanding.
