Enerflex Launches Independent Operations Shares to Start Trading on TSX June 3, 2011


CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - June 1, 2011) - Enerflex Ltd. ("Enerflex") (TSX:EFX) is pleased to announce that it is commencing business operations and public market trading as an independent public corporation. Enerflex designs and builds natural gas compression, production and processing and power generation solutions that are engineered, designed and fabricated to meet its customers' specific needs around the world.

"These are very exciting times for Enerflex," said Blair Goertzen, Enerflex's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Enerflex will continue to pursue global opportunities and respond proactively to changing market conditions in order to serve our customers and create shareholder value."

Enerflex was created by the division of Toromont Industries Ltd. ("Toromont") into two separate, publicly traded companies: Toromont, which will continue to operate its equipment and refrigeration businesses, and Enerflex, which today became an independent public corporation encompassing the operations of the global natural gas compression and processing businesses previously owned by Toromont. Since early 2010 Enerflex had been providing this line of energy services and integrated solutions as a division of Toromont.

The independence of Enerflex provides advantages to Enerflex, its customers and shareholders. These include a sharper business focus, the ability to formulate business strategies independently and the freedom to pursue growth opportunities. In addition Enerflex anticipates enhanced access to capital, more effective ability of the capital markets to evaluate its business and performance, and strengthened ability to attract, retain and motivate key employees.

The common shares of Enerflex are expected to start trading on a "when issued" basis on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "EFX" on June 3, 2011. Shareholders are encouraged to consult their brokers.

The Board of Directors of Enerflex approved a dividend of $0.06 per share which will be paid on July 1, 2011 to shareholders of record on June 10, 2011.

While Toromont has released its March 31, 2011 quarterly statements incorporating the Enerflex business, it is expected that Enerflex will release independent unaudited IFRS-compliant financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 following close of business on June 8, 2011 after approval by its Board of Directors.
