China Solar & Clean Energy
Solutions, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2010 Financial Results
BEIJING, May 14 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Solar & Clean Energy Solutions, Inc.
(Formerly known as "Deli Solar (USA), Inc.") (OTC Bulletin Board: CSOL)
("China Solar"), a manufacturer and distributor of solar water
heaters, space heating devices and provider of renewable energy
solutions in the People's Republic of
China ("PRC"), today reported its financial results for the
first quarter ended March 31,
2010.
Highlights for the first quarter of 2010:
-- Revenue increased 6.6% year-on-year to $3.9 million.
-- Gross margin increased to 29.8% from 24.2% for the same period of 2009.
-- Net loss decreased 73.3% year-on-year to ($0.3) million.
-- Cash and cash equivalents were $3.4 million as of March 31, 2010.
First Quarter 2010 Results
First quarter 2010 revenue was $3.9
million, an increase of $0.2
million, or 6.6%, from $3.7
million for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in sales
was primarily attributable to the rise in revenue from our heat
pipe related equipments under the management of Tianjin Huaneng
Energy Equipment Company ("Tianjin Huaneng"), our subsidiary in the
PRC. We expect overall sales revenue for heat pipe related
equipments and energy-saving projects to keep growth momentum
during the rest of the year.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2010 increased by 0.3
million, or 31.1%, from $0.9 million
for the first quarter of 2009, primarily due to an increase in
sales volume and prices of our heat pipe related equipments.
Correspondingly, gross margin increased to 29.8% from 24.2% for the
first quarter of 2009.
Operating expenses decreased to $1.3
million for the first quarter of 2010, as compared to
$1.5 million for the same period of
2009. The decrease in the Company's operating expenses was
primarily due to the compression of operation cost.
Operating loss was ($0.2) million
for the first quarter 2010, as compared to loss from operations of
($0.7) million a year ago. First
quarter 2010 net loss was ($0.3)
million, a decrease of $0.9
million, or 73.3%, from ($1.2)
million for the same period of 2009. Consequently, net loss
per share was
($0.02) for the three months ended
March 31, 2010, as compared to
($0.07) for the first quarter of
2009.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $3.4 million as of March
31, 2010, compared to $5.0
million as of March 31, 2009.
The decrease in cash and cash equivalents is attributable to the
increase in other receivables for the first quarter of 2010.
Outlook for 2010
Mr. Deli Du, Chief Executive Officer and President of
China Solar, commented, "I'm pleased
that our net revenue increased by 6.6% in the first quarter of
2010, and I am especially encouraged by the increase in orders
received by Tianjin Huaneng this quarter, which has amounted to
$5 million (RMB 34 million) in total, a strong indicator of
our capacity for achieving strong revenue growth, reliable profits
and cash flows for the year 2010.
"We will continue to focus our resources on China's immense
rural areas, which have created substantially higher demand for our
solar-related products, and importantly, we are planning to invest
in more profitable low-carbon opportunities and effectively
leverage our partnerships with leading clean energy institutions in
new energy sector to further facilitate our business transition
from manufacturer to solutions provider.
"Moreover, our nationwide distribution channels in China and our
strong government relationships continue to be our competitive
advantage in acquiring additional market share in the rapidly
growing new energy market in China. China
Solar is well positioned to capture the many attractive
opportunities both in China and abroad to explore unique business
model and pioneering solutions for the best interests of our
supportive shareholders," concluded Mr. Du.
