(via TheNewswire)

TORONTO, CANADA / TheNewswire / May 30, 2017 - ONEnergy Inc. ("ONEnergy" or the "Company") (TSXV: OEG), a dynamic energy management firm serving commercial, industrial, multi-residential and residential customers in Canada and the U.S. via its ONEnergy(TM) and Sunwave(TM)-branded energy and energy-efficiency businesses today announced its financial results as at and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2017. All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2017, revenues from continuing operations increased by 43 percent to $11.6 million versus $8.1 million during the corresponding period in 2016. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") loss, and loss from continuing operations showed improvement at $1.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss of $1.5 million and net income from continuing operations of $4.2 million during Q1 2016. Net income from operations during Q1 2016 included the proceeds from a $7.2 million legal settlement.

Cash and restricted cash as at March 31, 2017 totaled $5.3 million.

"Our Gas & Power business continue to see net new customer additions with strong revenue growth, however our margins were impacted by competition and utility default rates lagging the market", said Stephen J.J. Letwin, Chairman of ONEnergy. "We saw strong momentum in our Energy Efficiency business in the first quarter as they completed four projects and had three projects in progress exiting the quarter. We also received orders for a further three facilities from a large consumer products customer and we anticipate receiving further orders from this customer as this customer plans to upgrade most of their Canadian facilities to high-efficiency lighting."

The Company continues to perform due diligence and negotiate a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") which will set forth the detailed terms of its transaction (the "Transaction") (previously announced on December 21, 2016 and updated on January 20, 2017, February 17, 2017, March 13, 2017 and on May 8, 2017) to acquire all the outstanding shares of OZZ Electric Inc., and containing the terms and conditions set out in the letter of intent and such other terms and conditions as are customary for transactions of the nature and magnitude of the Transaction. Completion of the Transaction would result in a reverse takeover and change of business of the Company under the policies of the Exchange. The Company will provide a further update on the Transaction in due course.

Commencing on April 10, 2017, the Ontario Superior Court (the "Court") heard the Company's claim against its former CEO Gerald McGoey and his personal service company Jolian Investments Limited (collectively the "McGoey Defendants"). The claim against the McGoey Defendants is for up to a maximum of approximately $5.6 million (being the amounts they received from ONEnergy's predecessor Look Communications Inc. ('Look")) plus the McGoey Defendants' proportionate and several shares of amounts paid by Look as advances to law firms for the payment of legal fees and expenses. The trial concluded on May 23, 2017 and the Court took the matter under reserve. The Company expects a decision within the next six months.
