Historical Stock Chart
From Jul 2019 to Jul 2024
BEIJING, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Solar & Clean Energy Solutions, Inc. (Formerly known as "Deli Solar (USA), Inc.") (OTC:CSOL) (BULLETIN BOARD: CSOL) ("China Solar"), a manufacturer and distributor of solar water heaters, space heating devices and provider of renewable energy solutions in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"), today reported its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30th, 2009 and announced the establishment of strategic alliance with KOE Environmental Consulting, Inc. (Japan).
Third Quarter 2009 Results
Net revenue was $5.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of 69.2% as compared to $17.3 million for the same period last year of 2009. The decrease in the net revenue is primarily due to the disposal of Shenzhen Pengsangpu Solar Industrial Products Corporation ("SZPSP") and continuous decrease in the sales of single solar products such as solar heater and biomass stove in Deli Solar (Bazhou). Sales for industrial energy-saving projects in Tianjin Huaneng remains robust in the second and the third quarter of this year, but the industrial projects usually take three to six months to complete and the revenue for these projects is expected to be shown on the financial statements for the fourth quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010.
Net income was $45,646 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, with diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.01. For the second quarter of 2009, the net income is $1.09 million with diluted earnings per share of $0.07. For the first quarter of 2009, the net loss was $0.94 million with diluted loss per share at $(0.07). The turnaround from net loss to net income in the second and third quarters is primarily due to the disposal of SZPSP, which had been a major drag on profits for the first quarter of 2009.
Cash and cash equivalents increased to $3.6 million as of September 30, 2009, primarily attributable to the $1.4 million of cash returned as part of the divestiture of SZPSP during the quarter. The cash and cash equivalents was $2.7 million as of June 30, 2009.
Operating expenses was $1.2 million, as compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 53.8%. The overall decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to strengthening cost control since the start of 2009.
Mr. Deli Du, Chief Executive Officer of China Solar, commented, "Despite the financial crises, our pipeline for industrial and real estate energy-saving projects remains healthy, which is a strong credential of our unparallel capability of providing solutions properly tailored for the Chinese market. We are managing our operations well, while controlling costs and improving our services to international standards," said Mr. Du. "Our ongoing strategy of a transition from a product manufacturer and distributor to a renewable energy solutions provider has positioned China Solar to capitalize on the growth opportunities in the burgeoning Chinese renewable energy market. I am confident that China Solar will soon achieve solid business growth to serve the best interests of our shareholders."
Strategic Alliance with KOE Environmental Consulting (Japan)
On November 9, 2009, China Solar entered into a strategic alliance agreement with KOE Environmental Consulting Inc. (Japan), a consulting firm which helps Japanese environmental investment institutions to identify suitable projects under the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism ("CDM").
Under the terms of the strategic alliance agreement, China Solar and KOE will work together to identify and develop potential CDM projects across the industrial and real estate energy saving projects of China Solar, go through the UNFCCC ("United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change") registration process and trade the Certified Emission Reduction ("CER") and Verified Emission Reduction ("VER") credits thus generated.
"The strategic alliance will pioneer the development of CDM in one of the world's most carbon intensive countries," commented Mr. Du. "KOE and China Solar are ideally placed to jointly pursue the CDM opportunities in China. I am confident that KOE's strong expertise and extensive experience in CDM projects will help discover and create value for China Solar."
