Financial Results This announcement reports on consolidated results. For detailed segmented financial results please see Management Discussion and Analysis and Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012. Revenues Since the start of 2012 and up to the date of this press release, ProSep announced $49 million in new contracts including $18 million awarded to ProSep Kolon. At quarter end, ProSep's backlog stood at $17.8 million, up 87% year-over-year. Including the contracts announced subsequent to quarter end, the entire group's backlog stands at $38.4 million on November 5, 2012. During the third quarter of 2012, ProSep reported consolidated revenues of $10.3 million, an increase of 51% over $6.9 million reported during the equivalent quarter of 2011. Strong revenue growth at the Asia Pacific Operations (up 168%) is responsible for most of this growth. Revenues increased on the advancement of a large number of projects, mostly for gas and water treatment, awarded since the second half of 2012. Year-to-date, ProSep reported consolidated revenues of $32.5 million, up 23% from $26.4 million generated during the equivalent period of 2011. Gross Margin Overall gross margin for the third quarter of 2012 stood at $1.6 million (or 15% or revenues) compared to $2.2 million (or 32% of revenues) during the corresponding period of 2011. Third quarter margin levels are lower than targeted and reflect execution issues at the Asia Pacific Operations where two large projects experienced cost overruns and delays, as well as lower nominal contribution from proprietary technologies. Year-to-date, consolidated gross margin stood at $7.2 million (or 22% of revenues) compared to $6.6 million (or 25% of revenues) for the equivalent period of last year. EBITDA and Loss for the Year During the third quarter of 2012, EBITDA was negative $1.1 million, an improvement over the negative EBITDA of $2.3 million reported during last year's equivalent quarter. Year-to-date, EBITDA also improved to negative $4.0 million compared to negative $6.4 for the comparable period of 2011. Higher revenues from the Asia Pacific Operations and close control of expenses throughout the Company contributed to reduce negative EBITDA. The Company's objective is to continue controlling its cost structure and accelerate the commercialization of its proprietary technologies to improve overall profitability. Recent contract announcements indicate that this strategy has started demonstrating results. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, the Company reported a loss of $1.6 million ($0.08 per share on a post consolidation basis), an improvement from a loss of $2.5 million ($0.26 per post-consolidated share) for the second quarter of 2011. Year-to-date, the Company recorded a loss of $4.6 million ($0.22 per post-consolidated share) compared to a loss of $7.9 million ($0.82 per post-consolidated share) in the corresponding period of 2011. Loss for both periods improved on higher revenue and lower total expense levels compared to last year. Basic and diluted loss per share was determined using the weighted average number of 20,980,785 Common Shares outstanding during the second quarter of 2012 compared to 9,641,830 during the equivalent period of 2011. At September 30, 2012, the Company had $1.6 million in cash compared to $4.1 million at December 31, 2011. Covenant Waiver At September 30, 2012, one of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries was in breach of a covenant under borrowing facilities between DnB Bank as lender, and said subsidiary as Borrower. A covenant waiver wherein the lender confirmed that the breached covenant is not deemed to constitute an event of default was obtained by the Company's subsidiary.
