Titan Energy Worldwide Reports Full-Year 2007 Financial Results
MINNEAPOLIS--(Business Wire)-- Titan Energy Worldwide, Inc. (OTC BB: TEWI.OB), a leader in the manufacturing, marketing and servicing of energy generation products and services, announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2007. "2007 was a year of repositioning Titan Energy to take advantage of the rapidly growing demand for back up, emergency and new energy technologies throughout the United States. We ended the year with a strengthened balance sheet and are now focused on accelerating growth in our target markets," said John Tastad, Titan's Chief Executive Officer. "As we move forward in 2008, we plan to aggressively market the Sentry 5000 through our new distribution agreement with Katolight, one of the largest suppliers of generation equipment in the U.S. with more than 100 distributors nationwide," added Tastad. "We will also work to expand our distribution reach through acquisition or partnerships with our manufacturers; increase sales and service revenues through alternative energy offerings; and promote and enhance the Titan Energy brand name and reputation. "Our expertise in designing and servicing energy systems for companies, municipalities, government/defense organizations combined with our established distribution channels and high-quality service capability position Titan Energy to meet the continued strong demand for clean, efficient, energy solutions," concluded Tastad. Full Year 2007 Results For the full year ending December 31, 2007, revenue was $8.8 million, up from revenue of $7.0 million based on the proforma year-end December 31, 2006. Cost of sales was $7.7 million, up 23% over the prior year period due to higher sales volume. Total general and administrative expenses were $3.3 million, up from $0.7 million in 2006. Loss from operations increased to $2.2 million from $0.6 million in fiscal 2006. The company reported a net loss available to common stockholders of $16.3 million or $2.50 per share for the fiscal year 2007, as compared to a loss of $0.8 million or $3.18 per share in the prior year. Earnings per share calculations for the full year 2007 included $3.5 million in preferred dividend from beneficial conversion feature on Series D and $9.7 million in preferred dividend from early extinguishment of Preferred Stock Series A, B & C. "Extreme cold and wintry conditions in much of the Midwest prevented the company from delivering generator systems in late 2007 and early 2008," said Tastad. "These orders are now backlogged to the second and third quarters of 2008. At the same time, contractual delays in executing the national distribution agreement with Katolight pushed the first orders of Sentry 5000 units into 2008. Since executing the agreement in February 2008, the company has booked orders for seven Sentry 5000 units and we expect to receive several additional orders in 2008." As of December 31, 2007, the company had total assets of $5.6 million with cash and cash equivalents of $.07 million, working capital of $.09 million and stockholders' equity of $3.1 million. Due to adverse market conditions at the end of 2007, the company extended its 2007 private placement offering of Preferred D stock until January 31, 2008. At close, the company had raised approximately $6.5 million from the Offering and another $1.8 million from the conversion of notes. These transactions allowed the company to retire approximately $4 million in debt and obtain working capital of approximately $1.7 million. About Titan Energy Worldwide, Inc.
