FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FUEL TECH REPORTS 2020 SECOND QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
WARRENVILLE, Ill. - August 11, 2020 - Fuel Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: FTEK), a technology company providing advanced engineering solutions for the optimization of combustion systems, emissions control and water treatment in utility and industrial applications, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 (“Q2 2020”).
“We believe that the COVID-19 pandemic affected our Air Pollution Control (“APC”) and FUEL CHEM® operations in the second quarter,” said Vincent J. Arnone, President and CEO. “The delays that we had been experiencing in closing new APC business awards were extended as a result of COVID-19. However, we do have active projects in our current pipeline and we are confident that we will close new awards with an aggregate total value of $10 to $15 million by the end of the year. Our FUEL CHEM segment was impacted by slower activity due to COVID-19, particularly in the months of April and May. A decline in economic activity caused reduced electricity demand which led to a reduction in electricity generation and dispatch, in particular for coal-fired power generation units. Fortunately, the month of June showed improvement and thus far in the third quarter we have returned to normalized run rates for use of our FUEL CHEM programs. Early in the third quarter, we announced a new order for equipment supporting our TIFI® Targeted In-Furnace Injection technology on three coal-fired units in the United States. The equipment installation and startup for these units should occur before the end of the third quarter, and we expect to see contributions from these units throughout the second half of the year.”
Mr. Arnone concluded, “We have collected and repatriated in excess of $1 million in cash as of June 30, 2020 following the closure of our underperforming China operation (“Beijing Fuel Tech”) and expect to continue these collections throughout 2020. We ended the quarter with $11.3 million in cash and cash equivalents.”
DGI™ Dissolved Gas Infusion
The Company previously reported that an on-site demonstration of its water technology at a pulp and paper facility in the Midwest planned for early in Q2 2020 had been delayed due to the impact of COVID-19, and this demonstration is still delayed as of this date. In July, the Company signed a new license agreement related to the DGI technology from Kadance Corporation, an entity that purchased the assets from the prior licensor of the technology, NanO2, LLC. Kadance Corporation is a company active in municipal wastewater treatment, with a focus on delivering biological solutions to this market. Under the terms of the new agreement, Fuel Tech has more flexibility regarding non-exclusive market access and now can manufacture all DGI delivery systems on its own. The Company continues to advance conversations with several other potential customers of our DGI technology across a variety of industries.
Q2 2020 Consolidated Results Overview
Consolidated revenues declined to $4.4 million from $8.9 million in Q2 2019, reflecting lower APC and FUEL CHEM revenues. Results for Q2 2020 and Q2 2019 did not include any revenue from Beijing Fuel Tech.
Gross margin for Q2 2020 was 13.7% of revenues compared to 43.6% of revenues in Q2 2019, primarily reflecting lower revenues in the current quarter and a $1.1 million charge in our APC segment (described below). Excluding the APC charge, consolidated gross margin for Q2 2020 was 40%.
SG&A expenses declined by 38.2% to $2.8 million from $4.5 million in Q2 2019. Included in this amount for Q2 2020 is a reversal of $0.5 million in expense related to the allowance for doubtful accounts associated with the aforementioned APC charge.
Net loss from continuing operations was $(2.5) million, or $(0.10) per share, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $(0.9) million, or $(0.04) per share in Q2 2019. Net (loss) from continuing operations in Q2 2020 and Q2 2019 attributable to Beijing Fuel Tech was $(0.1) million and $(0.5) million, respectively.
Capital projects backlog at June 30, 2020 was $8.3 million, $7.2 million of which was domestic. Backlog at December 31, 2019 was $9.7 million, of which $8.6 million was domestic.
APC segment revenues declined to $1.9 million from $4.8 million in Q2 2019, primarily the result of project timing, lower capital projects backlog and a delay in new contract awards. APC gross margin was $(0.4) million reflecting a $1.1 million charge associated with a previously disclosed equipment warranty liability with a U.S. customer. Excluding the charge, APC gross margin for Q2 2020 was $0.7 million, or 39%.
Fuel Tech has submitted a reimbursement request to its insurer for the amount expended in remediation, and such amount is within the coverage limits of its insurance policy. Fuel Tech and the insurance company continue to work amicably to resolve this matter and, upon settlement with its insurer, all amounts received will be applied to reverse the charge.
FUEL CHEM segment revenues were $2.5 million compared to $4.1 million in Q2 2019. This segment’s performance was impacted by a reduced demand for power, extended unscheduled outages, and significantly reduced operations largely caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Segment gross margin was 40.0% in Q2 2020 and 49.9% in Q2 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA loss was $(2.2) million in Q2 2020 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(0.5) million in Q2 2019.
Financial Condition
At June 30, 2020 total cash was $11.3 million including restricted cash of $3.0 million, down from total cash of $13.5 million, including restricted cash of $2.6 million, at December 31, 2019. Stockholders’ equity was $21.1 million, or $0.86 per share.
As previously announced, on April 15, 2020 the Company received $1.6 million in loan proceeds from the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), established pursuant to the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The unsecured loan is evidenced by a promissory note of the Company dated April 15, 2020 (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $1.6 million issued to BMO Harris Bank N.A. (the “Bank”), the lender, pursuant to a loan agreement, dated April 15, 2020, between the Company and the Bank. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Note and the PPP Loan, interest will accrue on the outstanding principal at the rate of 1.0% per annum. Additional information concerning this loan is available in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the Company has provided an Adjusted EBITDA disclosure as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock compensation expense, and intangible assets abandonment and building impairment. The Company's reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP standards, but are not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
Adjusted EBITDA is provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance and ability to generate cash flow, which we believe is a meaningful measure for our investor and analyst communities. In many cases non-GAAP financial measures are utilized by these individuals to evaluate Company performance and ultimately determine a reasonable valuation for our common stock. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the nearest GAAP measure of net income (loss) has been included in the above financial table.
