Press Release.
The following is the text of the press release dated November 14, 2008
reporting Transtech Industries, Inc.'s results of operations for the quarter
ended September 30, 2008.
TRANSTECH INDUSTRIES, INC. REPORTS RESULTS
FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
PISCATAWAY, N.J., November 14, 2008 - Robert V. Silva, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Transtech Industries, Inc. (OTC BULLETIN
BOARD:TRTI) announced the results of operations for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2008. The Company?s subsidiaries perform
environmental services and generate electricity utilizing methane gas as
fuel.
Revenues for the electricity generation segment for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2008 were $201,000 and $573,000,
respectively, versus $189,000 and $400,000 reported for the those periods
in 2007. The increase in revenue was due to higher fees received per kWh
and less downtime for repairs. Gross revenues of the environmental
services segment for the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
2008 were $186,000 and $623,000, respectively, versus $209,000 and $745,000
reported for the those periods last year. The environmental services
performed in the periods were conducted on sites owned or leased by members
of the consolidated group and therefore eliminated in the calculation of
net revenues.
The cost of operations for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2008 were $651,000 and $2,068,000, respectively, versus
$612,000 and $1,815,000 reported for the those periods in 2007. The net
increase in costs was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and
general operating expenses. The increase in professional fees reported for
the periods in 2008 was due to litigation initiated by the Company to
challenge the attempts by two municipalities to encumber the Company?s real
property located in Edison Township, N.J. and Deptford Township, N.J.
Other income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
2008 was $220,000 and $479,000, respectively, versus $210,000 and $460,000
reported for the those periods in 2007.
Income tax benefit for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2008 was $86,000 and $261,000, respectively, versus $42,000
and $298,000 reported for the those periods in 2007.
Net loss for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008
was $137,000, or $.05 per share, and $747,000, or $.25 per share,
respectively. Net loss reported for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2007 was $171,000, or $.06 per share, and $657,000, or $.22
per share, respectively.
The Company and certain subsidiaries previously participated in the
waste recovery and waste management industries. The Company continues to
incur administrative and legal expenses on matters related to its past
participation in those industries. In addition, the Company may incur
significant remediation and post-closure costs related to sites of past
operations.
Presented below are the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the
Company as of September 30, 2008 and comparative consolidated statements of
operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008
