ZhongDe Waste Technology AG: Strong year-on-year improvement of financial re-sults in the first nine months 2014
- Revenue grew by 54.9 per cent to 11.5 million Euros
- EBIT increased by 40.4 per cent
- Improved net result of -5.5 million Euros
- Financial outlook confirmed
Frankfurt, 28 November 2014
The first nine months of 2014 remained a challenging transition period for ZhongDe Waste Technology AG. Nevertheless, ZhongDe succeeded in improving its financial results compared to the previous year period.
During the third quarter 2014 the contribution out of ZhongDe’s current BOT and EPC projects amounting to 6.9 million Euros continued to increase. While ZhongDe’s two current EPC projects Zhucheng and Dingzhou contributed 3.9 million Euros to the total group revenues, BOT projects contributed 3.0 million Euros. Thus revenues in the first nine months of 2014 increased significantly by 54.9 per cent to 11.5 million Euros (9M 2013: 7.4 million Euros).
Especially the trial run revenues from the advanced stage BOT projects and the progress of the EPC projects had a positive impact on ZhongDe’s gross profit, which went up from -0.7 million Euros in the first nine months of 2013 to 2.4 million Euros in the first nine months of 2014. Accordingly, gross profit margin improved by 30 percentage points to 21 per cent (9M 2013: -9 per cent). EBIT reached -3.1 million Euros (9M 2013: -5.1 million Euros) – a plus of 40.4 per cent. Net result slightly improved to -5.5 million Euros (9M 2013: -5.8 million Euros).
High order backlog and still strong cash position
Due to the project progress partly compensated by foreign currency translation ZhongDe’s order backlog decreased by 2.6 per cent to 231.9 million Euros (9M 2013: 237.2 million Euros).
As at 30 September 2014, ZhongDe still maintains a strong cash position of 89.2 million Euros (31 December 2013: 110.1 million Euros). Besides the regular cash outflow due to the company’s normal operation, the decrease in cash position was also caused by repayment of principal and interest for the loans of BOT projects.
Financial outlook remains unchanged
With regard to the full year of 2014 ZhongDe maintains its outlook given at the end of June in its half-year report 2014. Thus, the company expects improved operating results for the full year 2014, although still leading to a loss before taxes.
The completion of the two BOT projects Zhoukou and Xianning has been postponed from 2014 to 2015, since it has become apparent during the trial-run phases that additional adjustment works are needed due to new government requirements. Furthermore, the trial operations in the BOT project in Kunming are expected to start in the first quarter of 2015. ZhongDe also plans to finalise the two existing EPC projects Zhucheng and Dingzhou in 2015.
In the mid-term, ZhongDe still expects to benefit from the favourable political and economic environment for eco-friendly waste disposal, as well as from the growing demand for energy-from-waste-plants, both in China and throughout Asia. Furthermore, the management board evaluates all strategic opportunities on a regular basis, which refers to the acquisition of new BOT or EPC contracts as well as to the potential sale of several or all BOT projects.
