FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SINOCOKING ANNOUNCES SECOND FISCAL QUARTER RESULTS
PINGDINGSHAN, China –February 12, 2015 - SinoCoking Coal and Coke Chemical Industries, Inc. (NasdaqCM: SCOK), a vertically integrated producer of clean energy products located in Henan Province, today announced that for the second fiscal quarter of 2015 ended December 31, 2014, the company had income from operations of $523,305 on revenue of $12,677,319 compared to income from operations of $1,540,556 on revenue of $13,208,253 in the like year-ago quarter.
Due primarily to a noncash gain of $5,452,865 recorded for the change in fair value on revaluation of its warrant liability, the company reported fiscal Q2 2015 net income of $3,981,858, or $.17 per share, versus a net loss of $106,658, or $(.01) per share, for the same year-ago period. Weighted average number of shares for the 2015 second fiscal quarter was 23,960,217 compared to 21,121,372 for fiscal Q2 in 2014.
The four percent decrease in second quarter revenue compared to the same period last year resulted primarily from the slowdown in sales of most of SinoCoking’s traditional coal and coke products. However, the decrease in revenue from these products was offset in part by revenue of $2,139,171 from the company’s clean-burning syngas, generated and sold beginning in October 2014.
Gross profit margin in fiscal Q2 ’15 increased to 21.2 percent from 15.6 percent in fiscal Q2 ’14, resulting mainly from the higher profit margin of syngas.
For the six-months ended December 31, 2014, the company reported income from operations of $1,882,688 on revenue of $26,251,155 compared to income from operations of $3,993,402 on revenue of $30,684,223 in the corresponding prior year period. An adjustment of $3,425,703 for change in fair value of warrants in the fiscal 2015 six-month period resulted in net income of $1,428,601, or $.06 per share, versus net income of $1,054,226, or $.05 per share, in the comparable year-ago period. Weighted average number of shares for the six-month periods was 22,642,611 versus 21,121,372, respectively.
Revenue for the first six months of fiscal 2015 decreased 14.4 percent year-over-year, as there was no Syngas production and sales during Q1 ’15 to help offset declining sales of SinoCoking’s traditional products. However, gross profit margin for the first half of fiscal 2015 increased to 18.9 percent from 16.8 percent in the first half of fiscal 2014.
“This has been a highly constructive quarter,” said SinoCoking CEO Mr. Jianhua Lv. “The rapid and successful launch of our aboveground syngas facility has demonstrated SinoCoking’s ability to redefine itself as a producer of clean energy products. With this transition into the clean energy space, we are creating new revenue and profit centers that we expect to improve the company’s financial results going forward, and at the same time mitigate negative impact on operations related to softness in the traditional coal and coking businesses.”
Now under construction at the site of SinoCoking’s first aboveground facility, which currently produces 25,000 cubic meters of syngas per hour, is a second facility with a similar capacity target. When completed and operating at full capacity – expected toward the end of March 2015 - the two facilities’ combined syngas output of 50,000 cubic meters per hour is expected to rank among the highest syngas production for any coking plant in China. Additionally, the company believes these first two facilities are the only ones in China that, to date, combine coking and syngas in parallel.
SinoCoking also said that completion of the first phase of its underground coal gasification facility, expected later this month, should enable the company to produce an additional 60,000 cubic meters of syngas per hour, and that the ultimate goal is to expand output of that facility’s capacity to 880,000 cubic meters of syngas per hour by the end of fiscal year 2018.
Previously, during construction of the first aboveground facility last summer, Mr. Lv had estimated gross profit margin on syngas sales of between 45 and 50 percent based on a price of $0.139 per cubic meter. Since the company began selling syngas in October 2014, the actual gross profit margin has been 40.6 percent based on an average price of $.10 per cubic meter. “Even though the actual price and gross profit are below what we had anticipated initially, the gross profit margin from syngas revenue is significantly higher than that of any other current SinoCoking product. We do not expect the $.10 price per cubic meter to change for the near future as we continue to achieve higher and higher levels of production.”
