AER has greatly reduced its overhead, project carrying costs and long term liabilities while increasing its cash position through the sale of project assets. As at December 31, 2014, the Company's assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents of US$2.2 million. Total assets are US$2.6 million and total liabilities, consisting primarily of well retirement obligations, are approximately US$300,000. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are US$85,000. Operating losses (overhead costs) were reduced from US$258,651 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 to US$40,609 for the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
The Company has sold or optioned three of its four geothermal development projects in the US for cash, thereby reducing project carrying costs to zero. At the Pumpernickel project, which was not included in the sale, AER has terminated its private leases and kept its two BLM leases. The Company has recently plugged and abandoned the existing thermal gradient wells at Pumpernickel in order to discontinue its interest and recover its geothermal well bonds. Well liabilities are expected to be extinguished and the Company expects to recover certain well bonds in California and Nevada by March 31, 2015.
Going forward, AER is evaluating advanced stage mineral projects for potential acquisition.
About Alternative Earth Resources Inc.: Alternative Earth Resources Inc. is a resource developer. The Company is implementing a change of its business focus from renewable energy to mineral resource development which has been approved by the shareholders. With its strong cash position and greatly reduced overhead, the Company plans to pursue late-stage mining project acquisitions and/or merger opportunities.
