OXNARD, Calif., Aug. 14, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. CDTI ("CDTi" or "the Company"), a leader in advanced emission control technology, reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2017.
Matthew Beale, CDTi's CEO, stated, "We are nearing our goal to complete CDTi's transition to an advanced materials and specialty coating business model by the end of 2017. Shipments of our advanced materials to commercial partners in China and India are set to begin during the fourth quarter and forward revenue visibility continues to increase for both cost-down and new vehicles programs. We have successfully adapted our technology for deployment in two-wheel and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) applications that offer additional near-term revenue opportunities. Our restructuring and repositioning initiatives have begun to translate into improved financial results with both operating loss and cash burn decreasing significantly during the second quarter. CDTi is nearing the end stages of transitioning to a scalable technology company, providing us with a solid platform to support the ramp of our new powder business in 2018 and 2019."
Financial Highlights: Second Quarter 2017 compared to Second Quarter 2016
- Total revenue was $8.4 million for both periods.
- Coated catalyst revenue was $4.8 million in both periods.
- Emissions control systems revenue was $3.0 million, compared to $2.9 million.
- Technology and advanced materials revenue was $0.6 million in both periods. - Gross margin was 23%, compared to 20%. The increase primarily reflects a more favorable revenue mix.
- Total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2017 were $2.3 million, compared to $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2016. The decrease reflects the positive effects of the company's cost reduction initiatives undertaken in 2016 as well as a reduction in the liability related to the exit of our Canadian manufacturing facility. The Company achieved its goal to reduce ongoing operating expenses to $3.0 million in the second quarter and anticipates that operating expense will continue at this level or lower for the remainder of the year.
- Net loss was $385,000, or $0.02 per share, compared to a net loss of $222,000, or $0.06 per share in the second quarter of 2016.
- Cash at June 30, 2017 was $1.6 million, compared to $7.8 million at December 31, 2016 including a $600,000 decrease in our line of credit since the first quarter.
Financial Highlights: Six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to 2016
- Total revenue for the first six months of 2017 was $16.6 million, compared to $18.2 million for the same prior year period.
- Gross margin was 20%, compared to 24% in the same prior year period.
- Total operating expenses for the first six months of 2017 were $6.1 million compared to $10.8 million in the same prior year period.
- Net loss for the first six months of 2017 was $3.5 million, or $0.22 per share, compared to net loss of $3.0 million, or $0.80 per share, in the same prior year period.
