Northstar Clean Technologies Unveils Strong Q1 2025 Financials and Operational Progress

Northstar Clean Technologies Reveals First Quarter 2025 Results

Northstar Clean Technologies Inc. has recently announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter of 2025, providing an extensive review of the company's performance and future direction. Based in Calgary, Alberta, Northstar specializes in sustainable asphalt shingle recycling and has made significant strides in operational efficiency and expansion plans.

Key Operational Achievements

The first quarter was marked by noteworthy advancements in Northstar's efforts to build and commission its Empower Calgary Facility. With the completion of construction, the company has shifted its focus to the commissioning phase. Northstar's asphalt shingle reprocessing process consists of two main phases: feedstock preparation and mechanical separation, followed by hydrocarbon treatment and processing. Recently, Northstar successfully finished the first phase of commissioning and is progressing into the second phase, with operations expected to commence by mid-2025.

Expansion Plans

Significant growth is on the horizon as Northstar looks to expand its operations beyond the Calgary facility. In Hamilton, Ontario, the company has entered a letter of intent with YORK1 Environmental Waste Solutions Ltd. to secure up to 10,000 tonnes of waste roofing shingles for reprocessing. This agreement follows a recent leasing arrangement for an industrial property in Hamilton, designed for the construction of another facility that will boost production capabilities.

Additionally, Northstar is actively working to identify a suitable site for its inaugural reprocessing facility in the United States. The selection criteria are closely aligned with strategic objectives set in partnership with TAMKO Building Products Inc. Furthermore, a significant milestone was achieved when Northstar secured a fifteen-year lease for its Delta, British Columbia location, enabling the retrofitting of an existing facilities to facilitate more extensive commercial operations.

Financial Overview

In terms of financial performance, Northstar reported a comprehensive loss of CAD 2,949,917 for the first quarter, compared to a loss of CAD 1,581,578 during the same period in the previous year. The company's operating activities consumed cash flow of CAD 2,338,652, and capital expenditures reached CAD 4,080,489, reflecting continued investment in its infrastructure and operational capabilities.

As of May 29, 2025, Northstar had 137,051,985 outstanding common shares and a working capital deficit of CAD 426,551. However, the company has successfully secured significant funding, including a CAD 3.9 million milestone payment from Emissions Reduction Alberta and a final draw of CAD 617 thousand from the Business Development Bank’s project loan facility.

Commitment to Sustainability

Northstar's mission centers around the principles of the circular economy, aiming to sustainably recover and reprocess asphalt shingles that would typically end up in overcrowded landfills. The technology developed by Northstar allows for the extraction of liquid asphalt and aggregates from waste materials, thereby contributing to environmentally-friendly construction practices.

With its focus on innovation and sustainability, Northstar Clean Technologies positions itself as a leader in the North American market for asphalt shingle recovery and reprocessing. As operations ramp up at its Calgary facility and expansion plans unfold, the company is on a promising path for growth and environmental impact.
