CALGARY, Feb. 1 /CNW/ --
CALGARY, Feb. 1 /CNW/ - Pure Technologies Ltd., ("Pure") (TSX-V: PUR) today released the following update on business activities for 2010,
and the outlook for 2011, based on preliminary unaudited financial
results:
-- Full-year revenue for 2010 is expected to be more than 50%
greater than 2009 revenue of $31.7 million.
-- Recurring revenue for the year is expected to be approximately
$4.9 million, compared to $3.5 million in 2009.
-- Gross margin for the year is expected to be in excess of 63%.
-- EBITDA, excluding foreign exchange impact, is expected to grow
by more than 55% over EBITDA of $4.5 million for 2009.
-- Earnings per share are expected to grow by more than 100% over
2009.
Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010 was more than $16 million,
compared to revenue of approximately $13 million for the corresponding
quarter of 2009 which included approximately $7.5 million in equipment
deliveries to the Great Man-Made River Project (GMRA). This growth in
revenue for the fourth quarter of 2010 is notable in that it reflects a
significant year-over-year increase in worldwide project activity.
Revenue generated by technologies acquired through the Pressure Pipe
Inspection Company (PPIC) acquisition was over $5 million for the
quarter. Total confirmed backlog (contracts in place) plus notified
contract awards currently stands at $43 million, excluding recurring
revenue and some engineering services.
The integration of the business and resources of PPIC is now essentially
complete. Sales, marketing, operations and research & development
functions have been combined. We have realized approximately $4
million in annualized savings on combined sales, general and
administrative expenses and we have accelerated our project delivery
capability and research & development output. Pure has been successful
in securing new or renewed pipeline monitoring, leak detection and
condition assessment contracts from former clients of PPIC including
the recently-announced award from the City of Dallas; renewal of a
Sahara® contract with Maynilad (Philippines); SmartBall® and PipeDiver(TM) work for Miami-Dade; and electromagnetic inspection, SmartBall, and
SoundPrint AFO® contracts from Conagua (Mexico).
Based on current visibility, we expect to maintain a high rate of
revenue and EBIDTA growth through 2011, commencing with a very strong
first quarter. In addition, we are working on the development of
high-value, multi-year program opportunities with a number of agencies
globally. The acquisitions of Aqua Environmental Pty. Ltd. (Australia)
and the inspection business of Specialised Technical Services (United
Arab Emirates) have provided us with additional marketing and
operational resources in these high-growth markets.
Our balance sheet remains strong and we are in a good position to take
advantage of potential acquisition opportunities as they arise.
