Orbite Technologies Inc. reported earnings results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017. For the quarter, the company reported loss before net finance expense (income) of CAD 2.7 million for the quarter, a slight increase from a loss of CAD 2.6 million for the comparable quarter in the prior year. The net loss decreased by CAD 2.4 million due principally to a CAD 2.9 million increase in net finance income partially offset by a decrease of CAD 0.3 million in deferred income taxes, CAD 0.2 million in general and administrative charges and CAD 0.2 million in other income. Cash flows used in operating activities for the third quarter of 2017 was CAD 1.5 million compared to CAD 3.5 million for the same quarter a year ago. The decrease is attributable mainly to HPA plant operations and changes in non-cash working capital items.
