The $8,000 foreign exchange gain in the third quarter of 2013 was lower than the $15,000 foreign exchange loss in the same quarter of 2012.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we recorded a net loss of $109,000 or $0.006 per common share based on the weighted average outstanding shares of 19,659,726 during the nine month period, compared to a net loss of $186,000 or $0.009 per common share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 based on the weighted average outstanding shares of 19,659,726.

A $17,000 foreign exchange gain in the current nine-month period contrasted with a $15,000 loss in the prior year period.
Our operational activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were financed by cash on hand. At September 30, 2013, we had working capital of $826,000, compared to $971,000 at December 31, 2012. We had available cash of $837,000 at September 30, 2013, compared to cash of $991,000 at December 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to the $109,000 operating loss incurred in the first nine months of 2013 and the foreign currency translation adjustments.
As at November 5, 2013 and September 30, 2013, the Company had 19,659,726 common shares and options to purchase 1,950,000 common shares outstanding.
