GEMINI CORPORATION REPORTS 2013 SECOND QUARTER RESULTS Profitability rises on strengthening operational performance

Calgary, Alberta - August 12, 2013 - Gemini Corporation (GKX-TSXV) announces its second quarter financial results for the period ended June 30, 2013.
Revenue in the second quarter of 2013 totalled $25,783,000, which was a 5% increase over the
$24,473,000 achieved in the second quarter of 2012. This brings year to date revenue to a total of $43,132,000 compared to $44,657,000 for the same period last year. The increase in second
quarter revenue was anticipated based upon the solid backlog of work the Corporation has in
both segments of the business. The slow start to the year, which was compounded by shifting backlog, has essentially been erased by the recovery experienced in the second quarter. The
current backlog puts the Corporation in the enviable position of hiring in a soft market to meet
the growing demands of key clients. Gemini's alliance clients are continuing to layer additional opportunities onto the service teams, which is generating increasing confidence for continued growth.
Second quarter gross profit for 2013 was $5,073,000 compared to $4,025,000 in the same period of 2012 and results in the year to date gross profit of $7,516,000 exceeding the prior year figure of $7,421,000. Gross profit as a percent of revenue improved to nearly 20% in the quarter as a result of consistently strong staff utilization performance in the Engineered Solutions segment and modest margin improvements in the Field Solutions segment. In addition, the careful management of fixed and variable infrastructure costs is contributing to profitability.
The Corporation's 2013 second quarter net income was $1,156,000 (2.1¢ per share) compared to the 2012 second quarter net income of $436,000 (1.3¢ per share). Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 total $786,000 (1.4¢ per share) compared to $621,000 (1.8¢ per share) for the same period of 2012.
"The second quarter results achieved what we had anticipated, which was to more than offset the poor start to 2013", stated Doug Lautermilch, Gemini's President and CEO. "Our operating performance is generating the level of profitability that we always knew was possible. Our backlog of work is growing and the opportunities being presented to us by our key clients are very exciting for all of our stakeholders."
