WALTHAM, Massachusetts, March 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- EuroSite Power Inc. (OTCPK: EUSP, the "Company") an On-Site Utility solutions provider, offering clean electricity, heat, hot water and cooling solutions to healthcare, hospitality, housing and leisure centers in the United Kingdom (UK) and Europe, reported a full year Gross profit of $287,355 for 2016 compared to a loss of $115,804 in 2015, an improvement of 348%. Total revenues increased to $2,476,186 for 2016 compared to $2,198,721 for 2015, an increase of 12.6%. Gross margin excluding depreciation improved by over 11.9 percentage points compared with 2015, to a strong 36.4%.
Commenting on the 2016 full year results Dr. Elias Samaras, Chief Executive Officer said "Our focus for 2016 was to improve gross margin and to implement our 'four pillar' strategy. We delivered these key objectives while also securing additional investment, all but eradicating debt and creating a platform for strategic expansion. Now fully independent and with an enhanced board, the recent decision to deregister our common stock further positions us for growth." He added, "While revenue grew strongly our new business activity was weak and will be a focus for 2017. Overall 2016 was a busy year for the team, but the foundations are now laid and EuroSite Power enters 2017 a stronger company with encouraging underlying momentum and positioned ready to deliver longer-term growth."
HEADLINES
Improved margin and implemented "four pillars"
Financial and operational performance
Outlook and 2017 targets – positive EBITDA, strategic growth and focus on new sales
The changes and achievements during 2016 mean EuroSite Power enters 2017 an independent and arguably stronger company. With an operating fleet capable of delivering positive cash flows there is encouraging underlying momentum and the Company's primary target for the year is to achieve a positive EBITDA cash flow position.
Relative to 2016, the Company reports that there are however, a number of factors that could affect 2017 earnings. At a positive level these include the Company's larger operating fleet, its increasing use of larger electrically efficient TEDOM equipment and the positive effect of more units being maintained in-house. Less favourably there is some uncertainty around changes to the retail price spark spread through 2017 and the Company reports that any adverse pricing will likely adversely impact margins through the year.
Strategically, acquisitions remain a priority for the Company. While certain transactions proved unsuccessful in 2016 the Company has started the year with clear targets already in sight. These targets align the Company's overall aims of adding both capacity and capability to its existing operation.
Management recognises the weak performance of its new business development activity through 2016 together with the need to turn this situation around. Restructuring is already underway with the aim of creating a new business development team focused on larger systems.
