Exhibit 99.1
ENERGY FOCUS, INC. REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2012 RESULTS
SOLON, Ohio, November 14, 2012 -- Energy Focus, Inc. (OTC BB: EFOI) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.
Financial results for the third quarter of 2012 include the following:
|
·
|
Net sales were $7.9 million compared to $6.0 million for the third quarter of 2011.
|
|
·
|
Gross margins improved to 24.8 percent of net sales compared to 20.1 percent of net sales for the third quarter of 2011.
|
|
·
|
The net loss of $0.9 million improved $0.5 million compared to the third quarter’s 2011 net loss of $1.5 million on $1.9 million higher sales.
|
Net sales increased 31 percent during the third quarter of 2012 as compared to the prior year’s third quarter primarily as a result of 45 percent higher sales from our Products business. Net sales increased in both the pool and commercial division, as well as in our government products and R&D services division. Net sales from our Solutions business increased 3 percent.
Joe Kaveski, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Although sales increased from the prior year’s third quarter, sales fell short of our guidance of $9.5 million to $10.5 million. The sales shortfall occurred principally in our SRC business where large contracts which we were expecting to receive earlier in the third quarter slipped, pushing portions of the revenues from these contracts out to the fourth quarter. However, the good news is that our SRC business has received $6.9 million of new contracts secured from the last week of September through today. These contracts (which are described in greater detail in today’s companion press release) and additional contracts we expect to receive in our fourth quarter will lead to year over year sales growth. Moreover, we are encouraged by our greatly expanded proposal pipeline which we expect will lead to further sales growth in 2013.”
The Company expects sales for the fourth quarter to range between $9.0 million and $10.5 million.
