NXT Energy Solutions Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results
CALGARY, AB / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2026 / NXT Energy Solutions Inc. ("NXT" or the "Company") (TSX:SFD)(OTCQB:NSFDF) today announced financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. Dollar amounts are in Canadian Dollars, unless otherwise identified.
NXT entered the second half of 2026 on a sound commercial and financial footing. We received the mobilization fee for the next African SFD® survey and began mobilizing flight operations on August 2, 2026. On April 8, 2026, we announced a new contract in South Asia further enhancing our geographic diversity. We anticipate revenues from these contracts to be reflected commencing with Q3-26. Net Working Capital (see "Non-GAAP Measures") at June 30, 2026, was approximately $2.09 million and Cash and Short-term investments were $1.72 million.
The key financial milestone achieved in YTD 2026 was the final conversion of the remaining convertible debentures into common shares of NXT.
Our revenue and profitability continue to cycle between securing new survey contracts and implementing those agreements, resulting in a significant decrease of revenues between YTD 2026 and YTD 2025. During YTD 2025, NXT was in the acquisition phase of the 2025 African SFD® survey, which involved active flight operations triggering large-scale revenue recognition. During Q1-26, the company was primarily engaged in the interpretation phase of the AL-Haj SFD® Survey in Pakistan. resulting in much lower immediate revenue recognition. During Q2-26 the Company was engaged in logistical and operational preparations for the execution of the second African SFD® Survey and the South Asia SFD® Survey.
Key financial and operational highlights during the second quarter of 2026 are summarized below:
the Company entered into a contract to provide an SFD® survey to an independent oil and gas exploration company in South Asia, the South Asia SFD® Survey noted above;
the Company received a $1,541,220 payment on outstanding accounts receivable;
the Company appointed Mr. Gerry Sheehan as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Sheehan's direct experience and relationships in international exploration as a professional geologist/geophysicist coupled with his business experience in oil and gas companies and associated relationships will add great value to NXT as it scales up its survey activities in areas of substantial potential in a world demanding new sources of oil and gas;
the Company recorded SFD®-related revenues of approximately $0.11 million for YTD 2026, versus $14.12 million for YTD 2026 and $nil for Q2-26 versus $1.66 million for Q2-25;
net loss for Q2-26 was $2.56 million including non-cash charges for stock-based compensation expenses ("SBCE") and amortization expenses totaling approximately $0.84 million;
net loss for YTD 2026 was $4.97 million including non-cash charges for SBCE, amortization expenses and remeasurement gain totaling approximately $1.65 million;
net loss per share for Q2-26 was $0.02 per share (basic and diluted), versus a net loss per share of $0.08 per share (basic and diluted) in Q2-25;
net loss per share for YTD 2026 was $0.04 per share (basic and diluted), versus a net income per share of $0.01 per share (basic and diluted) in YTD 2025;
net working capital (see "Non-GAAP Measures") was approximately $2.09 million at June 30, 2026;
cash and short-term investments as at June 30, 2026, were approximately $1.72 million;
cash flow used by operating activities was approximately $0.15 million during Q2-26 and $1.92 million YTD 2026, compared to $0.34 million provided by operating activities in Q2-25 and $1.81 million in YTD 2025;
general and administrative ("G&A") expenses increased by approximately $0.47 million (39%) in Q2-26 as compared to Q2-25; and
G&A expenses increased by approximately $1.08 million (46%) in YTD 2026 as compared to YTD 2025.
