The acquisition of Cabo's divisions has contributed directly to the Company's ability to reach one of its major goals: to become Canada's third largest mineral drilling company.
As a drilling services company, Cabo offers a unique investment opportunity by providing exposure to the mineral exploration and mining sectors without the commensurate risks associated with investing in mineral exploration companies. Additionally, drilling companies are not tied to a single commodity or project but have the ability to capitalize on the market's constant drive to locate new mineral resources.
Additionally, Cabo has expanded its operations into opportune alternative drilling sectors such as geoenvironmental/geotechnical and geothermal drilling. By consolidating through acquisition Cabo has achieved a competitive edge with additional customer services, improved productivity and greater economies of scale. Cabo will continue to align its subsidiaries over the next year to realize the following benefits:
- A reduction in drilling company operating costs; and
- Improved revenue as a result of offering increased services and greater customer awareness.
