Mosaic Capital Corporation Reduces Energy Exposure and Increases Deployable Capital to Approximately $50 Million



Calgary, Alberta (FSCwire) - Mosaic Capital Corporation ("Mosaic") (TSX-V Symbols: M,  M.PR.A and M.WT) is pleased to announce the sale of its 70% interest in the business being carried on by Streamline Mechanical L.P. and Streamline Projects L.P. (collectively, "Streamline") for total consideration of $13.7 million, comprised of $10 million in cash on closing and the balance to be paid within 30 days of closing.  Signing of the definitive agreement and closing occurred today.  Mosaic originally purchased its 70% interest in Streamline in June of 2014 for cash on closing of $13.2 million.

 

Streamline's business is providing site services to oil sands clients in the Fort McMurray region.

 

"We are very pleased to be reducing our Oil Sands exposure at this time," commented John Mackay, Executive Chairman and CEO. Mr. Mackay added "When we acquired Streamline, oil was over $100 per barrel and today it trades around $45. We acquired Streamline at a price we felt provided a margin of safety and this sale proves that this strategy helped preserve Mosaic's capital during a severe industry downturn. Today we believe that we are able to better allocate this capital into current opportunities. The disposition of Streamline adds to the relatively large amount of deployable capital available to Mosaic. We continue to have a robust pipeline of opportunities and look forward to announcing our next acquisition."
