Critical Control Energy Services Corp. announced earnings results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016. For the quarter, the company's overall revenue fell by 20.2% compared to the same period in 2015 as a direct result of the impact from reduced exploration, reduced well site activity and shut in wells in both Canada and the United States. The corporation generated net earnings of $0.3 million in the third quarter, compared to a net loss of $2.2 million in the comparative period. The net loss in 2015 was due primarily to $3.0 million in one-time charges offset by $1.3 million tax recovery. Year-to-date revenue for 2016 compared to 2015 is lower by 6.9%. The impact of the industry downturn in the year-to-date comparative is slightly offset by the increase in revenue from the Corporation's acquisition in the United States in the second quarter of 2015.
