Three Months Ended, 1. Nature of operations ENTREC Corporation ( ENTREC or the Company ) is an employee-owned heavy haul transportation and crane solutions provider to the oil and natural gas, construction, petrochemical, mining and power generation industries. The common shares of ENTREC trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the Exchange ) under the trading symbol ENT. The Company s head office is located in Acheson, Alberta. The Company s registered office is located at 1400, 350 7 th Avenue SW, Calgary, Alberta T2P 3N9. ENTREC s operations follow a slightly seasonal pattern, with revenue traditionally being lower in the three months ending June 30 and the three months ending December 31 than in the other quarters of the year. Due to this seasonality, the revenue and net loss reported for the three months ended, may not reflect that of revenue and net loss on an annual basis. The Company s unaudited consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended, were authorized for issuance in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on May 11,. 2. Basis of presentation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended, were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,. The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Company s unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,, subject to the accounting changes noted in note 4. The preparation of these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The significant judgments made by management in applying the Company s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were consistent with those that applied to the Company s December 31,, audited annual consolidated financial statements. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, the Company s functional currency. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements were prepared on a historical cost basis, except for share-based payment arrangements and embedded derivatives that are measured at fair value. Financial figures throughout the text and in tables are rounded to the nearest thousand (000), except where otherwise indicated. 3. Basis of consolidation The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ENTREC and its subsidiaries as at, and for the period then ended. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from their effective date of acquisition, being the date on which the Company obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Unrealized exchange gains and losses on foreign subsidiaries are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently recognized in net income in the event of disposal. The subsidiaries statements of financial position were prepared as at,, using consistent accounting policies. All inter-company balances were eliminated in full. 8
Three Months Ended, 4. Accounting changes Future accounting changes IFRS 9 Financial Instruments In July 2014, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued IFRS 9 Financial Instruments to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 provides a revised model for the recognition and measurement of financial assets, financial liabilities, and some contracts to buy or sell nonfinancial items. In addition, IFRS 9 includes a single expected-loss impairment model and a reformed approach to hedge accounting. This standard is effective January 1, 2018, on a retrospective basis subject to certain exceptions. ENTREC is evaluating the potential effect that the adoption of IFRS 9 could have on its financial position or results of operations. IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014 the IASB and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued their joint revenue recognition standard, IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. In July, the IASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of IFRS 15. As a result of the decision, IFRS will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Entities will continue to be permitted to early adopt the standard. ENTREC is evaluating the potential effect that the adoption of IFRS 15 could have on its financial position or results of operations. IFRS 16 Leases In January the IASB issued a new standard on leases, IFRS 16 Leases. IFRS 16 will require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for most leases under a single accounting model for which all leases will be accounted for, with certain exemptions. For lessors, IFRS 16 is expected to have little change from existing accounting standards (IAS 17 Leases). IFRS 16 will be effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Early application is permitted, provided the new revenue standard, IFRS 15 has been applied, or is applied at the same date as IFRS 16. ENTREC is evaluating the potential effect that the adoption of IFRS 16 could have on its financial position or results of operations. 5. Long-term debt The Company has a 240,000 senior secured asset-based credit facility (the ABL Facility ) with a syndicate of lenders led by Wells Fargo Capital Finance Corporation Canada ( Wells Fargo ). The ABL Facility is being used to fund ENTREC s capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. The ABL Facility carries a five year term and requires payments of interest only until its maturity in March 2019. Amounts borrowed under the facility bear interest, at ENTREC s option, at bank prime, bankers acceptance or LIBOR rates, plus a credit spread based on a sliding scale, determined by the Company s excess borrowing capacity (note 15). The Company may prepay all or any of the ABL Facility at any time. The ABL Facility contains an uncommitted accordion feature to increase the facility by 75,000 to 315,000. In addition, the Company has a 5,000 operating facility ( Operating Facility ) with Canadian Western Bank to finance ENTREC s day-to-day operations.

Convertible debentures The Company has outstanding 25,300 principal of convertible unsecured subordinated debentures (the Debentures ). The Debentures have an annual coupon rate of 7.00%, payable semi-annually, mature on October 30, 2017 and are convertible, at the holder s option, into common shares of ENTREC at a conversion price of 2.60 per share. The Debentures trade on the Exchange under the symbol ENT.DB. The carrying value of the Debentures at, are reported net of unamortized transaction costs of 2,947 (December 31, 3,373). Prior to October 31,, the Debentures may be redeemed in whole or in part, at ENTREC s option, at a price equal to their principal plus accrued interest thereon, provided the average market price of the common shares on the date on which notice is given is not less than 125% of the conversion price of 2.60 per common share. After October 31,, the Company has the option to redeem the Debentures in whole or in part at a price equal to their principal plus accrued interest. ENTREC may also, at its option and subject to certain conditions, elect to satisfy its obligation to repay all or any portion of the principal of the Debentures that are to be redeemed or repaid at maturity, by issuing common shares. The number of common shares a holder will receive in respect of each Debenture will be determined by dividing the principal of the Debentures that are to be redeemed or repaid at maturity by 95% of the market price of the shares. This will be calculated as the volumeweighted average trading price of the shares on the Exchange for the 20 consecutive days ending five days prior to the applicable event. As the Debentures contain a cash settlement feature, under IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation, the Debentures are accounted for as a compound instrument with a debt component and a separate embedded derivative representing the conversion option. Each component is measured at fair value on initial recognition. The debt component is subsequently accounted for at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The embedded derivative is subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date with gains and losses in fair value recognized through profit or loss. 11

ENTREC has also agreed to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees in accordance with ENTREC s constating documents and bylaws. Certain agreements do not limit ENTREC s liability and, therefore, it is not possible to estimate ENTREC s potential liability under these indemnities.
