All information can be found at www.sedar.com TSXV Symbol: CAF - OCTBB Symbol: CAFZF Price: $0.09 Common Shares: 47,426,195 Insider Holdings: 12,304,085 or 26% - Majority Owned By CEO & Family Warrants/Options: 0 Financials (All In US Dollars) ASSETS (Jan 31 2019) Cash: $591,414 Trade Receivables: $1,521,001 Sales Tax Receivable: $463 Inventories: $622,443 Prepaid Expenses: $22,965 Property & Equipment: $870,984 Interest Bearing Borrowings: $1,287,458 Intangible: $1 Total Assets: $4,916,729 LIABILITIES Trade Payables: $745,700 Sales Tax Payable: $37,844 Income Tax Payable: $84,206 Total Liabilities: $867,750 Asset/Debt Ratio: 5.67:1 Q1 2019 Performance Sales: $2,419,633 Gross Profit: $329,519 Net Income: $187,367 Foreign Currency Gain: $401,214 Total Net Income For Q1: $588,581 2017 Net Income(after currency exchange & taxes): $439,664 USD 2018 Net Income(after currency exchange & taxes): $298,144 USD 2019 Q1 Net Income (after currency exchange & taxes): $588,581 USD Total Net Income Added In 11 Quarters: $1,326,389 or $1,750,833 based on 1.32 exchange MD&A Highlights Whilst the Corporation reports another profitable and financially positive quarter, the board can confirm that it is actively looking for new opportunities that will offer long-term growth potential and stability of sales for shareholders, be it related to its existing anthracite calcining operation in South Africa or another new, and unrelated, sector. With zero long-term debt, a strong balance sheet, and a cash flow positive business in South Africa, the Corporation believes it is in a good position to do so. Sales for the first quarter of 2019 were low compared to the previous quarter in 2018 at $2,419,633 (2018: $3,273,213), a 26% decline, however gross profits grew to $329,519, compared with $248,562 in the same quarter in 2018, a 33% increase. Net income for the quarter remained static at $187,367 (2018: $187,126), but increased from $108,996 the previous quarter. Despite sales reducing during the quarter, gross profit margin increased due to discounted feed material being purchased during the period as well as savings made through acquisition of machinery, which subsequently reduced rental costs for the Corporation. The Corporation expects profit margins to reduce next quarter, and remain squeezed throughout the rest of the year, as Southern Coal continues to manage increased input costs. The Corporation expects revenues to be reduced in comparison to the year ended October 31, 2018, mostly due to global pressure on the steel and manganese markets, which subsequently filters back to demand for Southern Coal’s product. During Q1 2019, the Corporation is pleased to confirm that a trial load of its calcined product was delivered to a new potential, and significant, customer. The Corporation hopes to finalise a second trial during Q2 and Q3, and should this convert to an ongoing supply, the Corporation feels that there is potential to return to the revenue levels of the year ended October 31, 2018. During Q1 2019, Southern Coal made its final payment for the 14 million Rand loan from ABSA bank, which was drawn down in February 2015. Repayment of this loan now releases Southern Coal from monthly installments of approximately 392,000 Rand (approx. C$37,000 or US$28,000). As of January 2019, the Corporation has zero long-term liabilities. As part of Southern Coal’s B-BBEE transformation program, Amandla Amakhulu (Pty) Ltd, (“AAM”), a 100% black, privately owned, and ringfenced, company incorporated in South Africa, acquired 30% of the issued shares of Southern Coal, from Canaf’s wholly owned subsidiary, Quantum, for the value of 18 million Rand. The financial effective date for the transaction is 01 August 2018. Quantum in return received cumulative, redeemable preference shares in AAM in the amount of the purchase price. These preference shares shall provide preferential dividends, until redeemed by AAM. These dividends will be secured by an irrevocable direction from AAM to Southern Coal to pay Quantum such dividends from any distribution to AAM. Dividends were declared during the first quarter of $135,441.52 Expenses for the quarter were $119,276 (2018: $167,892) a reduction of $48,616, 41%, although not separately reported in Q1 of 2018 there are a significant amount of increased costs in relation to BBEEE compared to Q1 ofthis financial year.

Good to see CAF back at a 18 month high. Company has $4 million in assets vs $500k in liabilities and based on the last news release and numbers, should continue to grow. But what I don't like is that the company twisted the last news release by saying they made money, when they actually lost after the currency exchange, see financials on Sedar. I am selling my stock off and acquiring NDR.V(Canada)/NWDMF(USA) because it's the same price as CAF right now and New Dimension has 8 gold projects and closing a pp(filled with insider/institutional buying) to work on those projects. Coking coal isn't favoured in this market, gold is. I recommend making the switch.
