China Industrial Waste Management Announces 2011 Second Quarter Financial Results
DALIAN, China, Aug. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Industrial Waste Management, Inc. (OTCBB: CIWT) ("China Industrial Waste Management" or the "Company"), a leading environmental services and solutions provider in China, today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.
Second Quarter Highlights
- Revenues increased 69.4% to $8.3 million
- Gross profit increased 41.2% to $4.3 million
- Operating income increased 35.7% to $2.6 million
- Net income attributable to the Company increased 40.1% to $1.7 million
- Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 71.4% to $0.12
"In the second quarter of 2011 we achieved another period of excellent financial results, reflecting strong overall demand for our products and services, including hazardous and non-hazardous waste disposal, sludge treatment, and recycled commodities," said Mr. Jason Dong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Through the first half of the year, our existing operations performed well across the board and we also are making significant progress on our Dagushan expansion project, which we expect to complete in late third quarter 2011. Given our recent momentum, we remain optimistic for continued strong performance in the second half of the year."
Second Quarter 2011 Results
Revenues increased 69.4% to $8.3 million in the second quarter of 2011 from $4.9 million in the same period last year.
Revenues from service fees increased 57.9% to $5.1 million, or 61.1% of total revenues, from $3.2 million, or 65.5% of total revenues, in the prior year period. The increase was due to: (i) increased demand for hazardous and non-hazardous waste disposal services from our existing and new customers, and (ii) approximately $0.2 million of incremental revenues from our sludge treatment business.
Sales of recycled commodities increased 91.3% to $3.2 million, or 38.9% of revenues, compared to $1.7 million, or 34.5% of revenues, in the same period last year. The sharp increase was attributable to: (i) higher sales volume as a result of favorable market prices, (ii) the addition of revenues generated from our disposal program for discarded household appliances which was jointly sponsored by the PRC Ministries of Commerce, Finance and Environmental Protection and started August 1, 2010, and (iii) approximately $600,000 of incremental revenues from our Zhuorui subsidiary, which became operational in 2011.
Gross profit increased 41.2% to $4.3 million from $3.1 million in the same period last year. Gross margin was 51.7% compared to 62.0% in the prior year period. The decline in gross margin is primarily attributable to: (i) the increased service fee revenue generated by our non-hazardous waste treatment operations, which have a lower gross profit margin compared with service fee revenue generated by our hazardous waste treatment operations; and (ii) increased costs for labor, transportation and raw materials utilized to produce recycled waste products.
Income from operations increased 35.7% to $2.6 million from $1.9 million in the prior year period. Operating margin was 30.7% compared to 38.3% in the prior year period. The decrease in operating margin primarily reflects the decline in gross margin, somewhat offset by a decline in operating expenses as a percent of sales to 21.0% in the second quarter of 2011 from 23.7% in the same period last year.
Net income attributable to the Company increased 40.1% to $1.7 million from $1.2 million in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 71.4% to $0.12 from $0.07 in the same period last year.
First Half 2011 Results
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, revenues increased by 59.8% to $14.4 million from $9.0 million in the same period last year. Revenues from service fees, which consist of service fees generated from industrial solid waste treatment, sewage treatment and sludge treatment, were $8.9 million, or 61.6% of revenues, compared to $6.2 million, or 68.4% of revenues, in the same period last year, an increase of 43.8%. Sales of recycled commodities were $5.5 million, or 38.4% of revenues, compared to $2.8 million, or 31.6% of revenues, in the same period last year, representing an increase of 94.4%.
Gross profit was $7.4 million compared to $5.7 million in the same period last year, an increase of 29.1%. Gross margin was 51.3% compared to 63.5% in the year-ago period. Income from operations was $4.3 million compared to $3.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of 22.9%. Operating margin was 29.7%, compared to 38.8% in the prior year period.
Net income increased 47.6% to $3.3 million from $2.2 million in the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increased 100.0% to $0.20 from $0.10 in the same period last year.
Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7.1 million. Working capital was $10.3 million. Shareholder's equity increased 11.5% to $36.0 million from $32.3 million at the end of 2010. Cash used in operations was $0.5 million, driven by $1.4 million increase in account receivable that served as advances to home appliances stores as required to acquire discarded electronic appliances, $2.2 million increase in inventory of the finished goods produced by Zhuorui after resuming operations in May 2011, $1.2 million increase in advance to suppliers for purchase of raw materials, offset somewhat by a $0.9 million increase in accounts payable.
Recent Developments
In May 2011, the Company's 90% owned subsidiary, Dalian Dongtai Industrial Waste Treatment Co., Ltd. ("Dalian Dongtai"), closed the sale of its entire 65% equity interest in Hunan Hanyang Environmental Protection Science & Technology Co., Ltd. ("Hunan Hanyang"), a waste treatment company established under the laws of the People's Republic of China, for a total purchase price of RMB29 million (approximately $4.46 million) to Hunan Tian Kun Jia He Investment Co., Ltd., a company established under the laws of the People's Republic of China and an unrelated party of the Company .
In July 2011, the Company announced that it has dismissed Jewett, Schwartz,Wolfe & Associates and engaged the firm of UHY LLP as its new independent registered public accountant. The change was announced on Form 8-K and filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on July 7, 2011. Both the dismissal of JSW and the appointment of UHY were considered and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
Business Outlook
The Company is currently building in Dalian one of the most advanced one-stop service centers for industrial solid waste treatment in China (the "Dagushan Expansion Project"). The construction of the Dagushan Expansion Project is now 95% complete and management expects the center to become operational late in the third quarter of 2011. Once fully operational, this new facility will double the Company's hazardous industrial solid waste treatment capacity to 114,000 tons per year.
