Full Year Results

Full year 2022 revenues totaled $98.8 million, an increase of 43% compared to $69.2 million reported in 2021.

Net loss from continuing operations was $1.2 million for the full year, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $7.6 million for 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $9.6 million in 2022, compared to $5.2 million in 2021.

The Company generated positive cash flows from continuing operations of $13.6 million during 2022, compared to $4.7 million in the prior year. Cash on hand as of December 31, 2022 was $11.5 million and the Company has $1.0 million of available liquidity under its current bank agreement.

"We made tremendous progress both operationally and financially in 2022." commented Westy Ballard, President and CEO.

A number of factors could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from the events, performance and results discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Measures

Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance and operating results of our business. EBITDA is defined as Earnings from continuing operations before Interest (includes interest income and interest expense), Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA further adjusted for certain special items that occur during the reporting period, as noted below. We include EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to provide investors with a supplemental measure of our operating performance. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA is a recognized term under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"). Accordingly, they should not be used as an indicator of, or an alternative to, net income as a measure of operating performance. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow available for management's discretionary use, as they do not consider certain cash requirements, such as debt service requirements. Because the definition of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may vary among companies and industries, it may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table provides a reconciliation of net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands).

* For the three months ended December 31, 2022, special items consist of add-back for change in unrealized loss on natural gas derivatives of $0.9 million. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, special items consist of add-back for change in unrealized loss on natural gas derivatives of $0.9 million and one-time costs related to an expired contract of $0.2 million. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 special items consist of subtraction for change in unrealized gain on natural gas derivatives of $0.9 million.

Special items for the three months ended December 31, 2021 consist of non-cash charges related to the write-off of engineering designs. Special items for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 include the engineering designs, the add backs for executive officer's immediate vesting of restricted stock of $1.8 million, former executive officer's severance and immediate vesting of restricted stock of $1.2 million, impairment charges for settlement of an office lease of $0.4 million, and the forgiveness of indebtedness of a Payroll Protection Act Loan ($1.1 million).
