EverGen Infrastructure Reports Q4 & Year End 2024 Results
Financial Highlights:
37% increase in revenues of $3.2 million for Q4 2024 from $2.3 million for Q4 2023 and 69% increase in fiscal year revenues to $14.2 million from $8..4 million in fiscal year 2023, primarily driven by increased Renewable Natural Gas ('RNG') production following the completion of the Fraser Valley Biogas RNG expansion project in Q4-2023, the commencement of RNG production at GrowTEC in late Q2-2023, and increased pricing at Pacific Coast Renewables. Revenues also increased with the addition of management fees earned from Project Radius related to large scale project development.
Despite an increase in revenues and reducing proportionate direct operating costs and general and administrative expenses, net loss of $14.4 million and $17.1 million for Q4 and fiscal year 2024 increased from $1.8 million and $4.7 million for Q4 and fiscal year 2023, primarily due to non-cash impairment losses. These non-cash impairment losses associated with Sea to Sky Soils Composting Inc. and GrowTEC and a decrease in insurance proceeds received, higher direct operating costs from weather- and fire-related disruptions, increased finance costs tied to the Fraser Valley Biogas investment, and equity-accounted losses related to Project Radius, were partially offset by increased revenues and lower general and administrative expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA of $0.1 million for Q4 2024 compared to $nil for Q4 2023, and a 269% increase to $2.9 million for fiscal year 2024 from $0.8 million for fiscal year 2023, primarily due to increased revenues and lower recurring general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher production-related direct operating costs and reduced insurance proceeds.
Financial and Operational Summary:
The following table presents EverGen's Consolidated Financial and Operating Summary:
'EverGen is pleased to see its efforts and investments in upgrading Fraser Valley Biogas and optimizing production at GrowTEC generate expected growth in RNG revenues in 2024' said EverGen CEO, Mischa Zajtmann.

Trump can't give up the fight against foreign meddling in US tech
President Donald Trump last month got Canada to kill a blatantly unfair tax on US-based companies, but the fight against foreign meddling in America's tech industry has a long way to go. Canada's Digital Services Tax was set to slap companies like Google, Meta, Amazon, Uber and Airbnb with a 3% levy on revenue from Canadian users — until Trump canceled trade talks over what he rightly slammed as an 'egregious' move. Prime Minister Mark Carney promptly nixed the fee hours before it would've kicked in. Good: The tax was a shameless cash grab at the expense of American companies — and it was retroactive, demanding US-based tech firms fork over a whopping $2 billion. Note that the Biden administration also opposed the tax, and even whined that it might violate the USMCA trade agreement — but did nothing to actually stop it. Making Carney back down is fresh proof that Trump's big-stick trade tactics can work — and work to protect cutting-edge knowledge-based industries, not just brick-and-mortar manufacturing. It also shows that, despite all the ink spilled over Elon Musk's tiff with Trump, the tech industry still has plenty of reason to stay friendly with the administration. Especially since, as the prez pointed out on TruthSocial, Canada was just seeking to copy the European Union, which shamelessly uses its Digital Markets and Digital Services Acts to fill its coffers and bend US tech to its will. Six of seven tech companies the European Commission has highlighted as 'gatekeepers' to be reined in are American: Google, Apple, Meta, Amazon, Microsoft and The EU has already hit Apple and Meta this year with massive fines for allegedly breaking the Digital Markets Act's antitrust rules.

Check out more newsletters Far worse: The Digital Services Act chills free expression by threatening steep financial repercussions against companies that allow speech that the EU considers 'disinformation,' 'hate speech' or threats to 'civil discourse' — concepts so nebulous that it's hard to see how companies can comply without stomping on the First Amendment. It's beyond unacceptable for Brussels to determine what Americans can say on American–owned sites. The EU's legal harassment of US-based tech firms is so egregious that Trump aide Peter Navarro slammed it as 'lawfare' in April. These 'fines' are basically tariffs by another name — milking successful American companies by creating strict regulations that target them especially. Canada clearly meant to get its own slice of that pie, only for Trump to slap down Ottowa's grasping hand. Making the Europeans back off should be high on the president's agenda as he starts his next tariff offensive. Don't let America's trade partners reap the benefits of our thriving, innovative tech industry while spitting on the free-speech and free-market ideals that make it possible.

'How Do I Prove My New Identity to Employers or Banks?' Amicus Covers Official Verifications
VANCOUVER, British Columbia For individuals who have legally changed their identity—whether it be name, nationality, or residency status—the question that quickly follows is often practical: How do I prove it? Can employers, banks, and other institutions be made to recognize this new identity without legal or bureaucratic complications? Amicus International Consulting, a leader in legal identity transformation and relocation services, provides a detailed and straightforward answer to this question. In a world where background checks, digital scrutiny, and financial regulations are increasingly invasive, ensuring that your new identity is verifiable, compliant, and accepted is paramount. This press release outlines the legal documentation, banking verification processes, and employment recognition protocols that Amicus utilizes to assist clients in re-establishing their identities after a lawful name change. Why Proving a New Identity Is Crucial After Legal Transformation Starting fresh is not just a matter of renouncing the past—it's also about building a secure future. Clients who acquire new names, passports, tax IDs, or citizenship must ensure their paperwork: Complies with the laws of the issuing country Meets the document verification standards of global financial institutions Passes employer background checks and government vetting systems Holds up to due diligence procedures (especially in finance, immigration, and legal contexts) Failure to prepare the proper chain of documentation can result in rejection for bank accounts, jobs, rental housing, or international travel. Case Study 1: A Client Moving from Canada to St. Kitts and Nevis A Canadian entrepreneur relocated to St. Kitts and obtained citizenship through the government's Citizenship-by-Investment (CBI) program. Although his passport was valid and his name had been legally changed, he encountered roadblocks when attempting to open a business account with a central Caribbean bank. Amicus helped him: The bank accepted the complete dossier, and his company launched with a compliant offshore structure. What Institutions Require for Identity Verification Amicus outlines five major categories of entities that require identity verification and the specific standards each typically applies: 1. Banks and Financial Institutions Valid government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID card) Proof of address (utility bill, lease agreement) Tax Identification Number (TIN) or equivalent Proof of legal name change or nationality change (where applicable) Compliance with Know Your Customer (KYC) and AML laws 2. Employers Passport or national ID Social security registration or equivalent Work permit or visa (if relocating) Educational certificates (in new or prior name, with notarized links) A letter of explanation or supporting affidavit if discrepancies exist 3. Government Agencies Passport Residency/citizenship certificate Criminal background certificate under a new name Birth certificate or substitute (if the country allows) Tax filings or declaration of new fiscal residence 4. Digital Platforms Selfie-based ID verification (some platforms require a biometric match) 2FA tools linked to the new legal name IP/geolocation confirmation during sign-up Authenticated email or phone setup in the new jurisdiction 5. Landlords, Schools, Medical Providers Passport or national ID Utility bill or lease (for address) Proof of insurance Legal alias history (where legally required or by consent) Amicus works with each client to prepare country-specific documentation packets designed to meet these verification thresholds. Case Study 2: A Woman Moving from Spain to Uruguay After changing her name for safety reasons following a publicized divorce, a Spanish client relocated to Uruguay. Although her name had been legally changed in Spain and was recognized by Interpol, she encountered difficulties when applying for a rental apartment and private health insurance. The verification breakdown occurred because: Her Uruguayan contacts were unfamiliar with Spanish apostille certificates Her passport had been updated, but her tax number (NIE) was not Amicus coordinated with legal counsel in both countries to resolve the inconsistencies. Within weeks, the client had a certified translation of her name change ruling, an apostilled NIE update, and a notarized affidavit explaining the continuity of her health insurance contributions. The apartment was secured, and her private health policy was activated. Interview with Regulatory Expert: Paulina Krämer, Compliance Consultant for Amicus Q: What is the number one cause of verification failure after a legal identity change? Krämer: 'Paperwork gaps. People often change their names but forget to update their tax IDs, Social Security files, or university records. Institutions check across databases, and inconsistencies create red flags.' Q: How does Amicus address that risk? Krämer: 'We perform a document trail audit. Every legal change must cascade across all systems—immigration, banking, employment, health, and sometimes even education. We help clients synchronize their identity across these records.' Q: Can clients ever truly 'start fresh' and avoid their old identity surfacing? Krämer: 'Legally, yes—if every jurisdiction involved updates its records. But you need meticulous preparation. Nothing breaks anonymity faster than an old tax ID on a new application.' The 4-Step Amicus Verification Protocol To help clients avoid identity verification failures, Amicus uses a four-step process: 1. Jurisdictional Analysis Determine which country or countries issued the client's new identity and what standards apply for international recognition. 2. Document Harmonization Ensure name, date of birth, citizenship, and tax records match across all new documents. 3. Legal Linking or Severance Where permitted, Amicus either severs links to the old identity (such as delisting old records) or creates formal linking affidavits for explanation purposes. 4. Verification Dossier Assembly Clients are provided with a sealed, professionally bound document package containing: Passport copies Apostilled certificates Bank-compliant KYC summaries Government-issued tax IDs Professional letters of verification from licensed attorneys This package helps clients pass compliance reviews with banks, employers, realtors, and digital platforms worldwide. Case Study 3: A Former U.S. Citizen Building a New Career in South Africa A client who renounced U.S. citizenship and naturalized in Dominica sought to rebuild their consulting career in South Africa. While the identity change was legal and recognized by both governments, some South African employers demanded proof that the new identity had no criminal record. Amicus: Obtained a police clearance certificate under the new identity Worked with South African immigration to validate the Dominica passport and naturalization Helped the client register for a new South African tax ID Provided notarized letters affirming the legality and background check status The client was hired within two months of arrival. Common Pitfalls and How Amicus Helps Clients Avoid Them Amicus warns clients about these frequent mistakes that delay or invalidate identity verification: Partial Changes : Changing a name without updating it across all documents : Changing a name without updating it across all documents Non-Apostilled Records : Submitting domestic documents abroad without an apostille or consular legalization : Submitting domestic documents abroad without an apostille or consular legalization Language Barriers : Failing to translate documents for new jurisdictions : Failing to translate documents for new jurisdictions Missing Financial Links : Keeping old bank accounts that expose the previous identity : Keeping old bank accounts that expose the previous identity Uninformed Professionals: Using accountants or HR teams unfamiliar with legal identity transformations Amicus provides training materials and verification templates to clients, including sample letters, email scripts, and digital identity protection strategies. Digital Verification in 2025: How to Pass Online Scrutiny With AI-enhanced ID verification and biometric matching becoming common in 2025, Amicus also offers: Digital onboarding coaching for platforms like Upwork, PayPal, and Binance Webcam-assisted passport verification preparation New email domain setup to avoid suspicion from prior digital trails VPN and IP consistency advice for those managing remote digital identities Integration of blockchain-verified identity wallets (in select jurisdictions) Clients engaged in digital nomad work, e-commerce, and international freelancing especially benefit from these modern techniques. What If an Institution Still Refuses to Recognize the New Identity? In rare cases, particularly with conservative financial institutions or government bodies, a client may face skepticism. Amicus addresses this through: Official notarized letters of validation Legal intervention in host countries to compel recognition Relocating clients to more friendly jurisdictions Use of secondary document chains (e.g., marriage licenses, property deeds, tax certificates) The organization reports that fewer than 3% of cases require legal escalation, thanks to proper documentation from the beginning. Conclusion: Legal Identity Isn't Enough—It Must Be Legible The work of disappearing legally and starting over doesn't end with obtaining a new passport. As Amicus emphasizes, your new identity must be legible to systems that weren't designed to accommodate transformation. Without proper verification processes, a client's new life can stall. However, with the appropriate documentation, consistency across databases, and expert support, clients can thrive, gaining access to housing, jobs, banking, and ultimately, freedom. Amicus continues to expand its verification protocols as international compliance laws become increasingly stringent and more people seek to reinvent themselves across borders legally.
