Enerflex Ltd. Provides Update on EH Cryo Project
CALGARY, Alberta — Enerflex Ltd. (TSX: EFX) (NYSE: EFXT) today provided an update of a modularized cryogenic natural gas processing facility known as the EH Cryo project.
Recent Developments
As previously announced, Enerflex suspended activity at the project site following a drone attack that resulted in fatalities at an adjacent facility. The company has collaborated with its customer to evaluate the situation and explore ways to complete the project despite security concerns.
Status of Contract and Construction
Enerflex has recently been notified by its customer of an intention to terminate the EH Cryo project contract. The company views this termination as an invalid attempt to bypass its rights to suspend work while the site remains unsafe, a position supported by expert security input. Enerflex plans to dispute this termination and protect its interests regarding the EH Cryo project.
Current Progress
Construction of the EH Cryo project was approximately 85% complete as of the end of June 2024. Revenue related to this project is recognized within Enerflex’s Engineered Systems product line, with unbilled revenue from the project amounting to about $160 million at the end of the second quarter. The project represents around 6% of Enerflex’s Engineered Systems backlog.
Financial Commitments
The company has issued a $31 million Letter of Credit supporting its obligations for the EH Cryo project, funded by its Revolving Credit Facility. Enerflex considers any drawing from this financial security under the current circumstances improper.
