BioHiTech Global Reports Third Quarter 2020 Financial Results

CHESTNUT RIDGE, N.Y., Nov. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- BioHiTech Global, Inc. ("BioHiTech" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: BHTG), a sustainable technology and services company, today announces financial results for its third quarter 2020 ended September 30, 2020.

BioHiTech Global, Inc. (PRNewsfoto/BioHiTech Global, Inc.)

Third Quarter Highlights:

  • Announced that Carnival Corp., the world's largest cruise company, reinitiated its installation program of the BioHiTech's Revolution Series Digesters aboard its ships in preparation for the eventual resumption of cruising
  • Announced a total of $1.4 million in new food waste digester purchase orders for its Revolution Series Digesters from Carnival Corp. as part of its previously announced purchase contract between the two companies with an estimated value of up to $14 million
  • Received first Altapure AP-4™ disinfectant systems purchase contract from Hazelton Area School District in Pennsylvania to protect its schools against COVID-19 and other viral infections
  • Shipped the first Altapure AP-4™ disinfectant system to the cruise industry where it will be installed on the SeaDream I yacht, a mega-yacht boutique ship
  • Closed an $9.5 million (gross) underwritten public offering, including the underwriter's over-allotment, with net proceeds of $8.4 million to the Company

Developments Subsequent to the End of the Third Quarter

  • Appointed Anthony Fuller as Chief Executive Officer
  • Received contract to install seven new food waste digesters at various Hackensack Meridian Health healthcare facility locations
  • Made strategic investment in Rensselaer, NY land venture as a material step to establishing a renewable energy campus, including New York state's first waste conversion facility
  • Announced a total of $1.9 million in new food waste digester purchases, bringing total orders received from Carnival Corp. for the Company's Revolution Series™ food waste digesters to $3.3 million, including $600,000 in digester orders from Princess Cruises, since Carnival reinitiated the installation of digesters on its ships in July 2020

"While the third quarter fell short of our expectations financially, a number of significant events during the quarter and after September 30 provide reasons to believe better quarters are ahead," commented BioHiTech's CEO Anthony Fuller.  "Carnival Corp. has placed $3.3 million worth of food waste digesters orders since July, providing what we believe is an incredible testimony to our technology and ability to solve real-world food waste problems for the travel and hospitality industry.  Additionally, our multi-unit order for food digesters from the Hackensack Meridian Healthcare system provides further validation for our Revolution Series Digesters that convert food waste into a liquid that can be safely discharged through any standard sewer line.

"The Altapure AP-4 disinfectant system saw initial deployments in a school district as well as on a cruise ship, and we are confident it can address future needs across a range of industries, all of which have been affected by COVID-19.  We continue to ascend the learning curve of operating our Martinsburg, W.V. plant using our patented High Efficiency Biological Treatment ("HEBioT") process. In many ways, are still in the commissioning phase with this plant.  We've made notable changes and are pleased with the progress we are seeing.  Our learnings from the Martinsburg facility will prove vital as we progress towards our potential development of a 'renewable energy campus' planned for Rensselaer, N.Y.  Quite simply, BioHiTech provides cost-effective technology solutions for sustainable waste management, whether on a large scale like our Martinsburg resource recovery facility or on a smaller scale via our food waste digesters.

"As we look ahead to 2021 and beyond, and as the newly appointed CEO, we are setting course with enhanced corporate initiatives. These initiatives are designed to maximize shareholder value and help investors better measure our progress moving forward.  I've laid out five goals on which we are focused heading into 2021:  1) increase revenue appreciably, 2) reduce SG&A meaningfully, 3) improve the plant operations measurably, 4) tell the story clearly, and 5) function as a team effectively.  I look forward to elaborating more on these goals in our earnings conference call later this afternoon and throughout the quarter," concluded Mr. Fuller.

Financial Highlights for Q3 2020

Revenues: Total revenue in the third quarter of 2020 was $742,877, a decrease of 48% compared to revenue of $1,426,775 in the third quarter of 2019.  Third quarter revenue decreased primarily due to a reconfiguration process conducted at the Martinsburg (W.V.) High Efficiency Biological Treatment (HEBioT) facility during the quarter by the facility's new management team that temporarily reduced production and caused its revenue to decline by 59% year-over-year to $248,274 prior to a $247,649 negative adjustment in previously estimated take-or-pay contract revenue.  Rental, service, and maintenance revenue declined 13% from $489,555 in the third quarter of 2019 to $423,996 in the third quarter of 2020.  Equipment sales partially offset the declines in the HEBioT and rental, service, and maintenance revenue and rose 370% from $62,565 in the third quarter of 2019 to $293,876 in the third quarter of 2020 due to purchases from Carnival Cruise Lines under their master purchase contract.  Furthermore, management advisory and other fees derived support for Gold Medal, a related entity, decreased from $264,750 in the third quarter of 2019 to $24,380 in the third quarter of 2020 in order for management to devote more focus to the Company's core services.

Operating Expenses: Total Operating Expenses, including $1,256,477 in cost of goods sold and a $917,420 impairment expense at the Martinsburg waste facility, in the third quarter increased 53% from $3,042,020 in the third quarter of 2019 to $4,660,333 in the third quarter of 2020.  Increased production expenses, the aforementioned impairment expense, stock-based compensation, legal and social media expenses, insurance costs at the HEBioT facility, Directors and Officers insurance, and management transition expenses at the HEBioT facility primarily drove the increased operating expenses from the comparable period in 2019.

Loss from Operations: The loss from operations increased from ($1,615,245) in the third quarter of 2019 to a loss of ($3,917,456) in the third quarter of 2020. 

Net Loss: Net loss per share in the third quarter of 2020 was ($0.16) on 22.0 million weighted average shares outstanding, compared to a net loss of ($0.13) per share on 15.6 million weighted average shares outstanding in third quarter of 2019.

Cash: Unrestricted cash at September 30, 2020 was $4,950,112 following an underwritten public offering completed during the third quarter that netted the Company $8,437,480 in proceeds, including the underwriter's over-allotment.
