NovaDX Announces Financial Results for the First Three Months of Fiscal 2009
NovaDX Ventures Corp, President & CEO, Neil MacDonald, reports:
(Vancouver, BC, December 02, 2008) NovaDX Ventures Corp ("NovaDX") - TSX-V:NDX - has reported its first quarter fiscal 2009 financial results for the three month period ending September 30, 2008.
With the continuing volatility in the market for junior resource companies for the three months ending September 30, 2008, NovaDX posted a net loss of $3,378,402, or $0.15 per share (basic and fully diluted), driven primarily by an unrealized decrease of $3,096,278 in the value of its investment portfolio.
"The results for our first quarter are disappointing; however, they reflect the unprecedented decline in the overall market as a result of the weak world economic condition. At NovaDX, we believe that now is the time to be proactive. Therefore, as announced on October 22, 2008, we have implemented a new strategic investment plan with the goal of strengthening our overall financial condition to weather these uncertain markets," said NovaDX CEO Neil MacDonald.
A breakdown of Q1 Fiscal 2009 Results, as well as Q4 Fiscal 2008 and YE Fiscal 2008 Results as of June 30, 2008, is as follows (all figures in Canadian dollars and Canadian GAAP):

Outlook
Weak market conditions in the US and Canada continue to put pressure on the junior resource markets in Canada. The recent weakness in financial service and other bellwether stocks on the major markets, coupled with the ongoing debt crisis in the United States and general economic indicators pointing to a world wide recession, has caused investors to convert holdings into cash as quickly as possible and the lack of liquidity has caused the junior resource sector to drift much lower on thin trading volumes.
Despite the decline in the market capitalization of our investee companies, management of most of these companies continues to deliver positive results which by and large have been interpreted by the market as a liquidity opportunity. We believe that these companies are building fundamental value in their projects and although this value is not currently being reflected in their market capitalizations, we are confident that it will become reflected once the current weakness in the financial markets begins to turn around.
With the announcement of our investment in the metallurgical coal business on October 22, 2008, NovaDX has shifted its investment focus towards investing in promising near production projects in the resource sector. We believe that by pursuing this strategy we will be able to stabilize the value of our investment portfolio from cash flow generated by investment in these near production projects. Although we expect the current volatility in these markets to continue at least in the near term, we believe that we will be able to navigate through this unpredictable market condition through a disciplined and focused investment approach. We will endeavor to continue to build our funds under management and administration and grow our investment banking business. Our goal is to preserve capital and maximize our return on capital while mitigating risk through a strategy of investment diversification, fulfilling an active advisory role with management of our portfolio companies, and sound portfolio management.
