CES Synergies Reports Third Quarter 2015 Financial Results and Provides Business Update
Demolition Revenue Increases 56.3% to $2.9 Million
CRYSTAL SPRINGS, Florida, November 16, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
CES Synergies, Inc. (CESX) ("CES" or the "Company"), a full service environmental, asbestos abatement and demolition company, today announced financial results for the third quarter ending September 30, 2015 and provided a general business update.
John Tostanoski, CEO of CES Synergies, commented, "Demolition revenue for the third quarter of 2015 increased 56.3% to $2.9 million. The increase in demolition revenues was primarily attributable to five large contracts in progress at NAS Jacksonville, Florida State University, Eglin Air Force Base and FDOT Orange County. Remediation sales decreased in the third quarter of 2015, as we near completion of remediation contracts in Florida and the DTE Power Plant in Michigan. However, we have commenced work on some large scale remediation projects at the end of the third quarter of 2015 in Florida, Georgia and Louisiana that should offset some previous declines as we head into the fourth quarter and 2016."
"We anticipate continued improvement heading into the fourth quarter of 2015, and currently project $18 million in revenue for the fiscal year 2015. We anticipate gross margins for the full-year of 2015 to be between 15% and 18%. During the third quarter of 2015 alone, we won 38 contracts in Florida valued at $1.4 million that are expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2015. At the end of the third quarter of 2015, we had a backlog of demolition contracts valued at $6.0 million. As we continue to diversify our revenue streams we believe there are significant growth opportunities at the federal and other government levels."
Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased 9.6% to $4.6 million versus $5.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in revenue was due to decreased remediation segment sales in the third quarter of 2015. Gross margin in the third quarter of 2015 was $360,365 or 8% of revenue versus $978,099 or 19% of revenue for the same period in 2014. The decline in gross margin percentage in the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was the result of higher material and labor costs in our contracts.
