Aberdeen International Inc. (“Aberdeen” or the “Company”) (TSX: AAB F: A8H, OTC: AABVF) is pleased to announce that it has released its financial results for the third quarter ended October 31, 2021.

For the three months ended October 31, 2021, Aberdeen reported net loss of $6.7 million or $0.05 per basic share from total revenue of $(3.8) million (realized gains on investments of $4.2 million and interest income of $0.1 million offset by unrealized losses on investments of $8.1 million). For the three months ending October 31, 2020, Aberdeen reported a net loss of $0.3 million or $0.00 per basic share from total revenue of $0.3 million (realized gain on investments of $0.1 million, unrealized gains on investments of $0.2 million and interest and advisory income of $0.1 million).

For the nine months ended October 31, 2021, Aberdeen reported net income of $7.4 million or $0.05 per basic share on total revenue of $11.8 million. Compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2020, Aberdeen reported net income of $4.4 million or $0.04 per basic share on total revenue of $5.9 million. Performance year-to-date represents a 71% increase in net income and 101% increase in total revenues over the same period in 2020.

The Company’s investment portfolio gains for the year-to-date were generated by significant contributions from clean energy investments in novel hydrogen and ammonia production technologies, AES-100 Inc. and AmmPower Corp., with the former seeing an $11 million increase in fair market value due to the acquisition of a significant non-controlling stake by a strategic investor. The Company was able to successfully realize significant gains on the divestiture of select non-core positions, despite market volatility impacting the Company’s quarter-over-quarter book value.

“The portfolio is very well positioned to capitalize on the continued transition to clean energy solutions. The team has done a great job to drive focused results for our core investments and we continue to look for opportunities in our non-core portfolio to capture returns. Our strong core positions, such as AES, showing promise as the technological capabilities are being tested and proven out, which has us highly optimistic about the future. We remain focused on the long-term strategy of investing in, and building, companies that are accelerating the transition to Net-Zero,” said Chris Younger, CEO of Aberdeen International.

The Company continues to focus on the transition to an economy fuelled by clean energy, seeking attractive investment opportunities and strategic partners that can drive ever greater portfolio value.
