what happened
Canadian oil and gas explorer Africa Energy reported that its net loss for the third quarter widened to $390,000 from $381,000, according to a Reuters report based on company data.
The company's cash and working capital rose after a $4.5 million private placement completed in August. It is also advancing regulatory approvals that would raise its stake in Block 11B/12B to 75%, and expects to hold that direct interest subject to those approvals.
The company is focused on obtaining environmental authorization for development of the block. The South African government, for its part, is seeking to speed up development of the Block 11B/12B resources.
why it matters
For investors this is a small story: the company is still at an early stage, and its progress depends on securing approvals and raising capital. The key signals will be approval of the higher stake and progress on the environmental authorization.
