CALGARY, Oct. 28, 2013 /CNW/ - EmberClear Corp. (TSXV:
EMB) ("EMB" or "EmberClear") today announced its audited financial
results for the twelve and three month periods ended June 30, 2013.
EMB's net loss for the twelve month period,
including discontinued operations, increased 307% to $47,428,820 from $11,217,307 for the same period in the prior
year.
Included in the net loss is an impairment charge
of $43,777,581 relating to the
Company's coal asset and project development. The impairment charge
related to the coal asset was determined using recent transaction
prices for coal in the ground between third parties. The
recoverable amount for the power project was based on fair value
less costs to sell and was determined using best information
available for sale of a similar asset, between third parties. As of
financial statement approval date, there was inconclusive evidence
to support the fair value for transactions involving similar assets
in the industry and management has written down the carrying amount
of the power project to $nil.
As of June 30,
2013 the cash position of the company was $615,854 with a negative working capital of
$3,884,302, as compared to working
capital of $4,109,395 at June 30, 2012.

discussion and analysis, and related information can be found on
