Third Quarter 2009 Results
Net revenue increased 37.8% to $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2009 compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2008. Turnkey installation project revenues increased significantly to $732,000 in the third quarter of 2009 compared to $128,000 for the same period in 2008. The increase in turnkey installation projects revenue included the sale of certain units and supporting equipment to a related party for $370,400. On-Site Utility energy revenues were essentially flat at $1.3 million in each period with the current period revenues impacted by significantly lower natural gas prices that translated into lower hot water revenue.
Gross profit increased almost 96.7% to $682,000 for the third quarter of 2009 compared to $347,000 for the same period in 2008. The gross profit margin was 34.2% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 24.0% for the same period in 2008, primarily due to the lower cost of natural gas which represents the majority for the cost of goods, and the growth of the higher margin cooling sales.
“We continued to execute our strategic plan and strengthen our leadership position as a leading On-Site Utility,” commented John N. Hatsopoulos, Chief Executive Officer of American DG Energy. “Our number of sites increased at a brisk pace, our gross margins continue to show improvement and we are working hard to attack our addressable markets and accelerate our growth with the objective of generating meaningful cash flows for our investors. Our unique, risk-free value proposition is enabling our customers to exercise control over their utility costs, resulting in significant savings compared to prevailing rates while simultaneously reducing their carbon footprint and providing reliable, energy-efficient power, hot water, and cooling systems. American DG Energy’s proven expertise and unrivaled energy-efficiency is becoming an increasingly attractive option for our target markets.”
Dr. Hatsopoulos continued, “Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, we were excited to have our common stock listed on the NYSE-Amex stock market, which was another step forward in American DG Energy’s corporate development and evidence of our commitment to creating value for our shareholders.”
Total operating expenses were $844,000 in the third quarter of 2009 compared to $561,000 for the same period in 2008. The increase was due to the addition of a new key employee, higher aggregate commissions paid to outside sales agents and an increase in engineering expenses. Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 42.3% in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 38.8% for the same period in 2008.
Loss from operations narrowed to approximately $161,000 in the third quarter of 2009 compared to a loss from operations of approximately $214,000 for the same period in 2008.
Net loss attributable to American DG Energy was approximately $310,000 or $(0.01) per share in the third quarter of 2009 compared to net loss of approximately $416,000 or $(0.01) per share for the same period in 2008.
