EuroSite Power Reports 2015 Financial Performance
Posts revenue growth of 39% over prior year & significant gross margin improvement
WALTHAM. Mass - March 29, 2016 - EuroSite Power Inc. (OTCQX: EUSP, the "Company"), an On-Site Utility solutions provider, offering clean electricity, heat, hot water and cooling solutions to healthcare, hospitality, housing and leisure centers in the United Kingdom (UK) and Europe, reported total revenues of $2,198,721 for 2015, compared to $1,577,873 for 2014, an increase of 39.3%. GAAP diluted loss per share (EPS) was $0.02 for 2015, a meaningful improvement when compared with a loss per share of $0.04 for 2014.
Gross margin excluding depreciation and site impairments improved to 24.4% for full year 2015 compared with 18.9% in 2014. Overall gross margin improved by 8.7% to a loss of 5.3% for 2015, compared to a loss of 14.0% for 2014. More significantly, the fourth quarter 2015 saw adjusted gross margin improve to 31.5% versus just 18.6% in the prior year comparable period. Adjusted gross margin improvement reflects the benefits from introduction of in-house maintenance, lower gas prices, and other cost saving initiatives.
Eight new installations were commissioned in 2015 bringing total operational systems at year end to 29 with a total installed capacity of 2,878 kW and long term total contract value of operational systems of approximately $81 million. In addition, four new contracts were signed during the year and with the further contract win announced last week this now brings the total number of systems under contract (both operating and in backlog) to 37; totaling 4,098 kW of capacity for a combined lifetime contract value of approximately $105.95 million.
For the full year 2015 the Company generated 28,784,347 kWh of energy and delivered total customer savings of $414,338. The combined operational fleet reduced UK carbon emissions by 3,680 metric tons - equivalent to taking 775 cars off the road - delivering both financial and environmental savings.
Speaking about the full year results, EuroSite Power Chief Executive Officer Dr. Elias Samaras noted, “Not only have we delivered compelling financial results for the period, we have achieved a number of key milestones that have laid the foundation for strong future growth. The project financing agreements recently announced with Societe Generale and Macquarie set the stage for more rapid roll out of our On-Site Utility solution across the UK and Europe. Similarly, the arrangement with Corona Energy for purchase of natural gas at long term discounted rates reinforces our customer value proposition and ensures more predictable margins on our installed fleet going forward.”
Paul Hamblyn, Managing Director of EuroSite Power, added, “2015 further established our position as a leading energy solutions provider while the fourth quarter also demonstrated the efficacy of our strategy to improve gross margin. We have already seen the success of our recent financing and energy purchase initiatives with the rapid announcement of our latest project, a 331 kW CHP system to be installed at The Dome Leisure Centre. Worth approximately $4.8 million over the full life of the contract, this large project is a solid argument for the value of the On-Site Utility business and validation of the initiatives we have been implementing over the past several months.”
