'This was a very successful quarter for China Clean Energy, both in terms of financial performance and the execution of our expansion strategy. We achieved double-digit sequential growth in net revenues, driven by strong demand of our biodiesel and specialty chemical products. The rise of international oil price has also increased the company's margin and net income from operations,' said Mr. Tai-ming Ou, China Clean Energy's Chairman and CEO. 'In addition, the successful completion of our private placement was an important milestone for our company, and provided us with the capital necessary to complete our expansion strategy to build a 100,000 metric ton annual capacity biodiesel plant.'
Fourth Quarter 2007 Results
China Clean Energy's net revenues in the fourth quarter were $6.9 million, an increase of 26.4% from the third quarter of 2007 and an increase of 87% year-over-year. The increase from the third quarter of 2007 was due to increased demand for the company's biodiesel and specialty chemical product lines, increased sales volume, higher sales prices, as well as greater sales volume due to our increased sales force.
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2007 was $1.9 million, an increase of 31% since the third quarter of 2007 and an increase of 73.9% year-over-year. Gross margins were 27.1% in the fourth quarter of 2007, down from 29.1% during the same period in 2006. The increase in gross profit was the result of higher sales prices and sales volume. The decrease in gross margin, however, was the result of a decrease in Chinese government export tax rebates from 13% to 5%, effective on July 1, 2007, for our exported specialty chemical products.
Operating expense in the fourth quarter of 2007 was $507,346 for the fourth quarter of 2007, a 45.9% decrease from $937,559 in the fourth quarter of 2006 which included a one time 'reverse merger' charge. The Company's operating income was up 58% from the third quarter of 2007 and up 895% year- over-year. The Company recorded a 20% increase in operating margin in the fourth quarter of 2007, representing a 400 basis point improvement compared to the third quarter of 2007 as well as the fourth quarter of 2006. This was due to the increase in production capacity and benefits from economies of scale.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $1.3 million or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, compared to a loss of $3,606 in the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase in net income was driven by the increase of sales and the improvement in operating margins.
Full Year 2007 Results
For the full year 2007, net revenues were $21.8 million, up 61.5% from $13.5 million in 2006. 26.54% of revenue came from biodiesel sales and 73.46% came from specialty chemical sales. Gross profit for the full year 2007 was $5.9 million, an increase of 55.3% from $3.8 million in 2006. The increase was attributed to a significant increase in selling price and sales volume of the Company's biodiesel and specialty chemical export business. Gross margin decreased slightly from 28.2% in 2006 to 27.0% in 2007 due to the decrease in Chinese government export tax rebates from 13% to 5% effective on July 1, 2007 for the Company's exported specialty chemical products. Operating income for the full year 2007 was $3.5 million, up 59% from $2.2 million in 2006. Operating margin remained the same at 16% in 2006 and 2007. Net Income for 2007 increased 164.6% to $3.4 million from $1.3 million in 2006. Earnings per share also increased 128.5% to $0.16 per basic and diluted share in 2007 from $0.07 in 2006. Cash flow from operations for 2007 totaled $2.1 million, compared to $1.4 million in 2006. Capital expenditures for 2007 totaled $3.8 million, including a partial payment for initial construction and land-usage rights related to the Company's new 100,000 ton-per-annum biodiesel plant.
Financial Condition
As of December 31, 2007, China Clean Energy had $1.1 million in total cash, approximately $4.3 million in working capital, and $1.5 million in debt. Stockholders' equity at December 31, 2007 stood at $14.8 million, a 13.8% increase over the $13.0 million recorded at September 30, 2007.
Additional Information
In connection with the private placement financing, certain stockholders and officers of the Company deposited an aggregate of 1.5 million shares of common stock into an escrow account, which shares shall be disbursed, pro rata, among the investors should (i) the Company fail to begin the production of biodiesel at its currently proposed production facility in Jiang Yin, People's Republic of China on or before January 1, 2009 or (ii) the Company fail to achieve at least $14,000,000 of adjusted net income during 2009. The Company plans to provide investors with regular updates as it makes progress on its Jiang Yin production facility construction. At this time the Company reaffirms its belief that it will commence biodiesel production from the new facility by January 1, 2009 and achieve at least $14,000,000 of adjusted net income during 2009.
In addition, over the next several quarters the Company plans to recruit independent directors to join its Board and take all additional actions necessary to fulfill the requirements to support an application to list on a national stock exchange.
