PROFIRE ENERGY REPORTS RECORD REVENUES, CASH IN Q3 FY2014;
RAISES REVENUE AND NET INCOME GUIDANCE FOR FY2014
FY2014 Guidance Raised to $34.0-35.0M Revenue, $5.3-5.8M Net Income;
Multiple Non-Cash Expenses bring Fiscal Q3 Net Margin below Historical Norm of 20%
LINDON, Utah, February 14, 2014- Profire Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PFIE), a technology company which manufactures, installs and services burner management systems and other combustion technologies for the oil and gas industry, today announced that it has filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for its fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2013 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and updated its guidance for the 2014 fiscal year, available on the Company’s website.
The Company reported record quarterly revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2013 of $9,530,837, and net income (after-tax) of $1,206,306, respectively. These figures represent a 169% increase in revenue and a 470% increase in net income (after-tax) compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. Earnings per share increased to $0.03 for the quarter, compared to ($0.01) for the same period of the prior fiscal year. As a percentage of revenues, total operating expenses fell from 75% to 33%. The Company reported total assets of $23,767,322 (with cash and cash equivalents of $5,732,530) and total liabilities of $3,484,285.
“Our third fiscal quarter showed significant growth over the same period in fiscal 2013,” said Andrew Limpert, Chief Financial Officer of Profire. “With the expansion of our sales team, the opening of new territories, and the continued development of the U.S. market, we saw increased execution from our sales team. As we stay active in training new personnel and improving our current product offering—as well as developing new technologies—we hope to improve our sales effectiveness over the coming quarters. With the sales expansions we recently announced, there will be some time and resources required to realize the potential of these expansions.”
The Company reported a 183% increase in the sales of goods (net), as well as a 46% increase in the sales of services (net), while total operating expenses increased 19%.
“We have adjusted our guidance to reflect our expectations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014,” said Nathan McBride, Finance & Communications at Profire. “We are raising our revenue guidance from $22.5 million to between $34.0 and $35.0 million in revenue, and also raising our net income guidance from $4.2 million to between $5.3 and $5.8 million.”
“As we look back at this recent quarter, we are largely pleased with the efforts and results from our team,” said Brenton Hatch, Chief Executive Officer of Profire. “Revenues improved quite strongly over last year, though we hope to improve quarter-after-quarter growth in the coming quarter and fiscal year. While we had some non-cash option-related expenses—which are largely non-recurring—that reduced our net income for the quarter, our normal operating profitability remained at approximately historical levels. We appreciate the hard work of our employees, as well as the patience and trust of our stockholders, as we prepare to finish the fiscal year and enter another year of exciting possibilities for Profire and the industry.”
The Company remains debt-free.
The Company’s financial statements (as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) are provided below.
