CALGARY - Horizon North Logistics Inc. (TSX:HNL) said Thursday that it lost $105,000 in its latest quarter as revenue dropped compared with a year ago.

German takes over the top job as Ric Peterson, who has been chief executive and chairman, moves to the role of executive chairman

Scott Matson, the company's controller, will move to chief financial officer.
