TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Carbon Streaming Corporation (NEO: NETZ) (OTCQB: OFSTF) (FSE: M2Q) (�Carbon Streaming� or the �Company�) today reported its financial results for the year ended June 30, 2022.

We are building something very exciting and executing well on our strategy to develop a robust and diversified portfolio of high-integrity carbon credits that we believe will be sought after by discerning buyers committed to climate action. Today we have carbon streams in technology and nature-based solutions, removals and avoidance, carbon and methane reductions, in four continents around the world.

By offering fair and flexible financing options, and nurturing exceptional collaborations with our project partners, we will continue to create value for them, the communities in which they work, our credit buyers, and shareholders alike.�

Company Highlights

Fourth Quarter 2022

• Ended the quarter with $93.2 million in cash and no corporate debt.
• Recognized net income of $29.2 million for the quarter, primarily due to a $32.7 million non-cash revaluation related to warrant liabilities. Adjusted net loss for the quarter was $3.5 million. See �Advisories - Non-IFRS Measures� for a reconciliation of adjusted net income (loss) to its most comparable IFRS measure.
• Announced the Company�s first carbon credit stream in a portfolio of fuel-efficient cookstoves and water filtration devices projects with Community Carbon (the �Community Carbon Stream�), located in five countries in eastern and southern Africa. The portfolio�s goal is to reduce approximately 50 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalent (�tCO₂e�) emissions and generate an equivalent amount of carbon credits over the 15 to 21 year lives of the projects.
• Announced a carbon credit stream with Will Solutions Inc. to scale its Sustainable Community Projects (the �Sustainable Community Stream�) in Quebec and Ontario, Canada. These projects are expected to generate more than 100 million carbon credits over the next 10 years, of which the Company will receive 50% of the carbon credits, up to 44.1 million carbon credits.
• Announced the Company�s first biochar carbon credit stream with Waverly RB SPE LLC, a subsidiary of Restoration Bioproducts LLC, (the �Waverly Biochar Stream�) to support the construction of a biochar production facility located in Virginia, USA. This project is expected to remove more than 161,000 tCO₂e of emissions and generate an equivalent number of CO₂ removal certificates (�CORCs�) over the 25-year project life.
• Announced a collaboration with IG Wealth Management to position the IG Climate Action Portfolios as unique, sustainable investment solutions available to Canadian investors.

Full Year 2022

• Recognized net loss of $12.9 million for the year, due in part to a $4.7 million non-cash revaluation related to warrant liabilities. Adjusted net loss for the year was $17.6 million. Adjusted net loss is a Non-IFRS measure, see �Advisories - Non-IFRS Measures�.
• Paid $67.4 million in total cash and equity consideration and committed to pay $40.4 million in upfront deposits for new carbon credit streaming agreements, early deposit interests and other assets; growing the Company�s portfolio to six streams covering 13 carbon credit projects across four continents at the end of fiscal year 2022, compared to one early deposit interest for a potential future stream on one project at the end of fiscal year 2021.
• Subsequent to year-end, advanced an initial C$400,000 to Citadelle Maple Syrup Producers� Cooperative, based in Quebec, Canada, to fund an initial grouped project; closed the Community Carbon Stream; and advanced $3.0 million to and entered into a new binding term sheet and royalty agreement with Future Carbon International LLC, the international division of Future Carbon Group (�Future Carbon�).

Carbon Credit Projects

The Company currently has the following carbon credit streaming and royalty agreements:

Strategy and Outlook

Carbon Streaming�s strategy continues to be focused on acquiring additional streams and royalties to diversify and grow its portfolio of projects. In the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company announced three new stream agreements: the Community Carbon Stream, the Sustainable Community Stream and the Waverly Biochar Stream. The addition of these new stream agreements furthers the Company�s goal of diversifying its portfolio geographically and by project type. Carbon Streaming plans to partner and support new and existing carbon projects as the Company continues to build its high-integrity portfolio of carbon credit streams and projects.

The Company also continues to build human capital, growing and enhancing its team with professionals who are skilled and knowledgeable in diverse fields of expertise. In particular, the Company�s sales infrastructure is continuing to expand as the Company expects to receive carbon credits from more than 10 projects in calendar year 2023. The Company believes that the development of a strong sales strategy and team will attract buyers of high-quality carbon credits, also benefiting project partners and other stakeholders.

Guidance Update

The Company expects to receive its first delivery of carbon credits pursuant to its streams in calendar 2022, with the anticipated carbon credit issuance from the Cerrado Biome Stream. Such issuance and delivery are expected in the second half of calendar 2022, with credit sales expected soon after delivery.

As previously disclosed in April 2022, the Indonesian government announced a temporary pause in the validation of carbon credits from projects on the Verra Registry (and other registries) as it seeks to finalize its national carbon emission regulations. The Company�s Rimba Raya stream has been impacted by this temporary pause, as it was scheduled to have its sixth audit under the Verified Carbon Standard of Verra in early 2022. Rimba Raya has a strong track record of regulatory compliance in Indonesia and in November 2021, the project received a renewed concession license, which extended the project�s concession license to 2073. InfiniteEARTH, Rimba Raya�s project operator, remains cooperative with Indonesia�s Ministry of Environment & Forestry (�MOEF�) to ensure that Rimba Raya�s activities remain in compliance with this dynamic regulatory landscape. InfiniteEARTH continues to engage with the MOEF and Sistem Registri Nasional Pengendalian Perubahan Iklim ("SRN"), Indonesia�s domestic carbon registry, while the design of Indonesia�s domestic scheme for carbon credit verification under national regulations is finalized.

The Company and InfiniteEARTH view the development of a national carbon policy as an important and positive step for Indonesia, carbon markets, and global climate action. Efforts such as these require time to properly develop and implement. As the timing of carbon credit verification, issuance and delivery from Rimba Raya remains conditional to these events, the Company is withdrawing calendar 2022 guidance as provided on January 18, 2022.

Over the long term and on a company-wide basis, the Company continues to expect to retain on average 15% to 25% of carbon credit revenue (with project-specific retention ranging between 5% and 45% of net revenue) generated from the sale of the carbon credits, subject to fluctuation based on the realized price from carbon credit sales and the specific terms of the stream agreements. Through an ongoing delivery payment under the terms of a stream agreement, a project partner is typically entitled to receive the balance of the net revenue from the sale of carbon credits (i.e. on average 75% to 85%).

Listing Update

The Company continues to pursue a potential listing of its common shares and listed warrants on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the �Nasdaq�). The Company previously announced that it had filed a registration statement Form 40-F (�Form 40-F�) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to advance the listing process. The Company continues to engage with U.S. securities regulators in pursuit of the Nasdaq listing. The Company�s common shares continue to trade on the NEO Exchange under the symbol �NETZ�, on the OTCQB under the symbol �OFSTF� and on the FSE under the symbol �M2Q�.
