Cleantech Solutions International Reports
Second Quarter 2014 Results
● Second quarter 2014 revenues were
$17.5 million
● Net income was $2.2 million, or $0.61 per
basic and diluted share
Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, China –
August 14, 2014 – Cleantech Solutions International, Inc. (“Cleantech Solutions” or “the Company”)
(NASDAQ: CLNT), a manufacturer of metal components and assemblies used in various clean technology and manufacturing industries
and textile dyeing and finishing machines, today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.
“In the second quarter, we saw a modest
increase in revenue from the second quarter of 2013, were profitable and generated strong operating cash flow. Sales of our low
emission airflow dyeing machines, which enable textile manufacturers to meet the Chinese government’s more aggressive pollution
control requirements, grew at a more tempered pace this quarter as we operated near full utilization and are in the process of
bringing additional capacity online. In our forged products business, we saw an uptick in sales to customers in the wind power
industry, which was offset by a decline in sales to customers in other industries,” said Mr. Jianhua Wu, Chairman and CEO
of Cleantech Solutions.
Second Quarter 2014 Results
Revenue for the second quarter of 2014 increased
by 1.8% to $17.5 million, compared to $17.2 million for the same period of 2013.
The Company experienced continued revenue growth
from sales of dyeing and finishing equipment, somewhat offset by lower sales of forged products, resulting in a modest decline
from revenues in the first quarter of 2014:
| · | Revenue from the dyeing and finishing equipment segment increased by 7.3% to $9.7 million, compared
to $9.0 million for the second quarter of 2013. The Company continues to experience strong demand for its low emission airflow
dyeing machines that enable manufacturers to meet China’s increasingly strict environmental standards.
|
| | |
| · | Revenue from the sale of forged rolled rings to other industries fell by 9.6% to $4.6 million,
compared with $5.1 million for the comparable period of the prior year. |
| · | Revenue from the sale of forged rolled rings for the wind power industry rose by 4.5% to $3.2 million,
compared to $3.1 million for the comparable period last year. |
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2014
increased by 2.8% to $4.1 million, compared to $4.0 million for the same period in 2013. Gross margin increased to 23.3% during
the second quarter of 2014 compared to 23.1% for the same period a year ago. The increase in gross margin for the second quarter
was primarily attributable to (i) increased operational and cost efficiencies in the forged rolled rings and related products segment
and (ii) a small decline in gross margin in the dyeing and finishing equipment segment, reflecting the introduction of a new model
of machine and its initial production at relatively low volumes.
Operating expenses rose by 21.9% to $1.1 million,
compared to $0.9 million in the comparable period last year. The increase was primarily due to higher selling, general and administrative
expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses in the year ago period benefited from a $0.3 million recovery of an account
previously written off.
Operating income was $3.0 million, down from
$3.1 million in the same period of 2013. Operating margin was 17.3% compared to 18.1% in the second quarter last year.
EBITDA, a non-GAAP measurement, which adds
back to net income interest expense, income tax, depreciation and amortization, was $5.2 million, up from $4.8 million in the second
quarter last year. The calculation of EBITDA is shown in a table following the financial statements.
Net income for the second quarter of 2014 was
$2.2 million, or $0.61 per basic and diluted share, compared to $2.3 million, or $0.79 per basic and diluted share, in the second
quarter of 2013.
Six Month Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, revenue
increased by 13.1% to $35.2 million from $31.1 million in the first half of 2013. Gross profit increased by 17.7% to $8.4 million,
compared to $7.1 million last year. Gross margin for first half of 2014 was 23.8%, compared to 22.8% in the first half of 2013.
Operating income increased 16.9% to $6.3 million from $5.4 million in the first half of 2013. EBITDA, a non-GAAP measurement, was
$10.5 million, compared to $8.7 million in the first half of 2013. Net income was $4.6 million, up from $3.9 million in the first
half of 2013. Net income per basic and diluted share was $1.29 compared to $1.35 in the first half of 2013.
Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2014, Cleantech Solutions held
cash and cash equivalents of $1.8 million compared with $1.1 million at December 31, 2013. Accounts receivable were $13.7 million
and total current assets were $25.1 million as of June 30, 2014. The Company had $3.1 million in short-term bank loans payable
at June 30, 2014, relatively unchanged from December 31, 2013. Stockholders’ equity was $97.4 million at June 30, 2014.
In the first half of 2014, the Company generated
$5.3 million in cash flow from operations. During the first half of 2014, the Company spent approximately $6.3 million in capital
expenditures to expand production capabilities and purchase equipment for its dyeing and finishing equipment segment.
Recent Events
On June 2, 2014, the Company’s
Chairman and CEO, Mr. Jianhua Wu, and his wife, Ms. Lihua Tang, purchased a total of 290,984 shares of common stock at a purchase
price of $5.58 pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated June 2, 2014 for the purchase price of RMB10,000,000 (approximately
$1,624,000). The proceeds were used to fund the expansion of the Company’s dyeing machine business in anticipation of increased
business from that business line.
Business Outlook
“We believe our dyeing equipment
business will continue to perform well as textile manufacturers upgrade to lower emission machinery in response to new environmental
directives from the Chinese government, although we may see some near-term fluctuation in demand as the industry consolidates and
the growth rate has declined in second quarter of 2014. Order flow for our low emission airflow dyeing machines remains strong
and we are optimistic about our new garment washing machine for denim. We are looking to diversify into new areas for our forged
rolled rings and related products. We are currently developing components for industrial blowers for the power equipment industry
which we believe can hold strong growth potential, although we have not generated any revenue from these products to date,”
said Mr. Wu.
