Satcon Technology Corp., a Boston-based maker of utility scale power management technology, saw its revenue for the second quarter of 2010 soar by more than 250 percent over the same period in 2009, setting a sales record. The company still saw its net losses grow as well, however.

For Q2 2010, Satcon (Nasdaq: SATC) reported a revenue jump to $27.6 million, versus the $7.6 million the company took in during the second quarter of 2009. Because operating costs to make that sales revenue also climbed, Satcon saw its losses grow from $7.1 million in Q2 2009 to $8.5 million in this most recent quarter that ended June 30, 2010.

Cash and cash equivalents on hand grew from $13.4 million in Q2 2009 to $14.4 million in Q2 2010. In addition, accounts receivable at the end of this quarter were $28.5 million, significantly up from the $17.6 million in AR that Satcon reported for the same time frame last year.

According to Steve Rhoades, Satcon’s president and CEO, the sales revenue in the most recent quarter “represented the largest quarter in Satcon’s history.” Gross margin also climbed to 21 percent, Rhoades said, mainly from the savings from moving its main production plant to Shenzhen, China.

In June, Satcon took on $12 million in debt under a new subordinated debt facility with Compass Horizon Funding Company LLC, a division of Horizon Technology Finance.  The company tapped Donald R. Peck as its new CFO in March, coming to Satcon with experience as CFO and treasurer at data center virtualization company Egenera Inc.

As of March, Satcon reported approximately 225 employees. The company has had down quarters for at least the last five, with a loss of $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2010 on revenue of $14.7 million. That cut the losses of the first quarter of 2009 nearly in half, however. Satcon lost $10.7 million in Q1 2009, on revenue of $13.4 million.

Following another "strong bookings quarter," Cantor Fitzgerald raised SatCon Technology's (NASDAQ: SATC) price target to $5.25 from $5 today. Cantor Fitzgerald reiterated its Buy rating on the stock.

SatCon Technology reported a 2Q operating loss of $0.07 per share on revenues of $27.6 million, compared with Cantor Fitzgerald estimates of ($0.03) on $28 million.

Cantor Fitzgerald analysts comment that "Company revenue guidance for the remainder of the year was well beyond even our bullish estimates and we expect the company will reach operating profitability in the third quarter."

Further, Cantor Fitzgerald notes that a bullish outlook in North America and China "plays to the strength of SatCon, as we believe they are very well positioned to grow share in the fastest growing geographies in the coming years."

Satcon Technology Corporation is a clean energy technology provider of utility grade power solutions for the renewable and distributed energy markets. Shares are 5% lower today, to $3.50.

wenn Satcon mal Gewinn macht und machr sieht, was unter dem Strich übrig bliebt. 2011 wird es spannend und die Photovoltaikindustrie läuft weiter sehr gut

Satcon expands portfolio with Satcon Solstice 500 kilowatt system Satcon expands portfolio with Satcon Solstice 500 kilowatt system RSS feed
(09/08/2010)

Satcon Technology Corporation® has launched the Satcon™ Solstice® 500 kilowatt system solution, now available in North America. The Solstice 500 kilowatt system expands upon Satcon’s portfolio of solar PV inverter technologies designed to address the needs of large multi –megawatt, utility scale systems, including the PowerGate Plus® 500 kW, the Prism™ 1 MW medium voltage package solution, and the 1 MW PowerGate Plus inverter solution.

Satcon Solstice is the industry’s first complete distributed power conversion system, delivering fine grained power harvesting and control with advanced utility ready grid interconnection. The 500 kW solution will join the previously launched 100 kW UL and the 125 kW CE systems to provide for a wider range of system designs that can be addressed with the Solstice solution suite.

Solstice revolutionizes large utility and commercial solar power plants by allowing the central inverter to monitor, manage and control the array at less than 3 kilowatt increments, as well as optimize each string with its own individual Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). The combination of fine grained harvesting of each panel string along with a highly efficient central inverter design insures the Solstice platform will deliver more power over the lifetime of the PV system by increasing total system harvest optimization and system uptime and safety. This results in an increase in total power production by 5-12 percent over designs using standard inverters, while simultaneously reducing the overall system material costs by 20- 25 percent.

“With the first 100kW sites producing power today and proving significant performance improvements, the addition of the 500 kilowatt system enables us to drive the leading edge of solar innovation deeper into the large scale commercial and utility markets,” said Steve Rhoades, Satcon’s President and Chief Executive Officer. "As the next generation solution for this utility scale category, Solstice will radically change the value equation of large scale solar power production, as the gains in system wide performance is directly proportional to the size of the installations."
