Nine months ended September 30, 2013 2014 5,939,255 Financial Results Revenues Xebec posted revenues of $4.4 million for the third quarter of 2014, a 124.2% increase compared to $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2013. The increase is explained by a general growth of various product lines. During the third quarter of 2014, Xebec made significant progress on a biogas plant contract explaining the increase for the Gas purification segment. Revenues were $10.5 million for the nine‐month period ended September 30, 2014, compared to $8.5 million for the corresponding period. This increase of $2.0 million is partly due to the $0.8 million increase in sales in the Associated gas segment due to the completion of a project during 2014. Furthermore, natural gas dryers and compressed gas filtration product lines showed a significant increase in revenue for the nine‐month period ended September 30, 2014 compared to the corresponding period last year. Order Backlog As of October 27, 2014, total order backlog stood at $6.0 million, compared to $5.9 million as at November 11, 2013. The increase of the backlog is related to the growth in orders for natural gas dryers. Gross Margin Xebec’s gross margin for the third quarter of 2014 amounted to $1.7 million compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2013. The improvement versus the same period last year is mostly explained by the improvement in gross margins in revenues associated of the Gas purification product line and the reversal of a provision of $200,000 created in 2013. For the nine‐month period ended September 30, 2014, the total gross margin amounted to $3.3 million, compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2013. Natural gas dryer margins were improved due to a higher volume of sales which reduced the burden per unit and also reflect the effect of the cost reduction plan introduced during 2013 for this segment. Margins for the gas purification segment were affected positively with the reversal of the $200,000 provision mentioned above, combined with the profitability of new on‐going orders. The revenue increase also contributed to improved gross margin since fixed cost are absorbed by a higher volume of sales. EBITDA and Net Income (loss) The EBITDA for the third quarter of 2014 amounted to $0.5 million compared to $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2013. By excluding the $1.3 million non‐recurring gain on disposal of assets from the EBITDA for Q3‐2013, the improvement for the comparative period is $0.8 million. For the nine‐month period ended September 30, 2014, the EBITDA amounted to $(0.9) million compared to $(0.7) million for the same period in 2013. The lower EBITDA number in 2014 is explained by the fact that in 2013 a $1.9 million non‐recurring gain on disposal of asset was recorded. Net income for the third quarter of 2014 totaled $0.4 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a net income of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per share for the same period in 2013. Despite the fact that the margins improved by $1.1 million on increased revenue for the third quarter of 2014, net income remains the same due to the fact that the third quarter of 2013 included a $1.3 million non‐recurring gain on disposal of assets. Other factors include the increase of $0.2 million in selling and administrative expenses, mainly associated to the opening of the US subsidiary, combined with an increase of $0.3 million in foreign exchange gain in the third quarter of 2014. Net loss for the nine‐month period ended September 30, 2014 amounted to $1.2 million, or $0.03 per share, compared to a net loss of $1.0 million or $0.03 per share, for the same period in 2013. The increase in net loss compared to 2013 is explained by the fact that for the corresponding period in 2013, a $1.9 million non‐recurring gain on disposal of assets was included. Selling and administrative expenses were $1.4 million in the third quarter of 2014, compared to $1.2 million for the same period last year. For the nine‐month period ended September 30, 2014, the selling and administrative expenses were $4.4 million, compared to $4.1 million for the same period last year. These increases are mainly related to the new USA subsidiary expenses . As of September 30, 2014, the Company had $0.8 million of cash on hand, $0.1 million of bank loan and $0.8 million of long‐term debt outstanding, of which $0.4 million is due within one year.
