- Fourth Quarter Earnings Growth Driven by Improved Solar Market -
ENFIELD, Conn-STR Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: STRI) announced financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2009.
2009 Fourth Quarter Highlights include:
•Consolidated net sales rose 6.1% to $79.9 million compared with $75.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2008
•Diluted EPS of $0.23 vs. $0.09 a year ago; non-GAAP diluted EPS of $0.42 vs. $0.15 a year ago
•Solar net sales rose 42.3% to $50.3 million on a quarterly sequential basis and 4.2% compared with the same quarter last year
•Quality Assurance net sales of $29.6 million rose 9.4% compared with the fourth quarter of 2008
•Solar adjusted EBITDA rose 45.6% to $24.0 million on a quarterly sequential basis and 55.6% compared with the same quarter last year
•Operating cash flow of $11.2 million exceeded net income.
Fourth Quarter Financial Results
Solar segment net sales for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2009 increased 42.3% on a quarterly sequential basis to $50.3 million and rose 4.2% from $48.3 million a year ago.
Solar segment adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $24.0 million, up 45.6% from $16.5 million on a quarterly sequential basis as a result of a 43% increase in sales volume, improved labor efficiencies and favorable fixed cost absorption. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2008, Solar segment adjusted EBITDA is up 55.6% from $15.4 million. This is partially due to a $4.2 million charge to cost of goods sold in 2008 for a product performance claim related to a product that the Company discontinued in 2006.
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Dennis L. Jilot stated, “As macro-economic conditions continue to improve, we are pleased with our solar segment’s fourth quarter results. Our revenue grew sequentially by 42.3% as expected reductions to solar subsidies in Germany and Italy and a favorably mild winter in Europe drove stronger-than-anticipated demand during the quarter. As the only encapsulant provider with manufacturing and distribution capabilities in North America, Europe and Asia, STR’s global footprint continues to be a key differentiator for us. This quarter, utilization of our Malaysian plant enabled us to increase our market penetration in Asia, including an increase in sales volume in China. Gross margin improved to 43.8%, a 550 basis point expansion from the third quarter of 2009.”
STR’s Quality Assurance (QA) segment net sales for the fourth quarter of 2009 rose 9.4% to $29.6 million, compared with $27.1 million a year ago as a result of increased testing for toy and private label markets as well as increased demand for its Responsible Sourcing social accountability services. QA adjusted EBITDA rose 8.0% to $5.8 million, from $5.4 million a year ago.
Selling, general and administrative expense for the fourth quarter of 2009 rose 132.0% to $18.8 million, compared with the same quarter last year. This increase was primarily the result of a $2.6 million one-time payment in connection with the termination of a 2007 advisory services agreement with DLJ Merchant Banking Partners, and an increase of approximately $5.1 million in non-cash stock-based compensation expense mainly due to the issuance of stock options to replace certain pre-IPO incentive units as a result of the change in capital structure from a limited liability company to a corporation.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2009 rose 174.5% to $8.9 million or $0.23 on a diluted EPS basis, compared with $3.2 million, or $0.09 on a diluted EPS basis during the fourth quarter of 2008.
Non-GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2009 rose 194.3% to $16.5 million, or $0.42 on a diluted EPS basis. This compared with non-GAAP net income of $5.6 million, or $0.15 on a diluted EPS basis, for the fourth quarter of 2008, (See discussion of non-GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation table below for details).
During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company generated $11.2 million of operating cash flow, up 28.9% from $8.7 million a year ago. Free cash flow, which is defined as operating cash flow less capital expenditures, increased 279%, or $10.7 million from the fourth quarter of 2008 mainly as a result of increased earnings, lower spending on capacity expansion and improved working capital performance.
STR’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Barry A. Morris stated, “Our capital expenditures for 2009 totaled $17.8 million. We entered 2010 with our solar capacity utilization at approximately 55% and based on our growth projections, we anticipate beginning to fund our 2011 capacity expansion needs during the first half of 2010. Our strong balance sheet and operating cash flows give us the ability to internally fund expansion currently under development and provide us with flexibility in our pursuit of shareholder value creation.”
Financial Results for the year ended December 31, 2009:
•Total net sales were $264.9 million, compared with $288.6 million a year ago. Solar net sales were $149.5 million, down $32.8 million from $182.3 million a year ago, primarily attributable to an industry-wide over-supply of module inventory that resulted from unfavorable macro-economic conditions as well as the fourth quarter 2008 cut to the solar subsidy in Spain. QA net sales totaled $115.4 million, up from $106.3 million for 2008 due to strong demand and benefit from the increased regulatory environment
•Gross profit on a consolidated basis was $98.0 million, compared with $113.9 million in 2008
•Net income on a consolidated basis was $23.0 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, compared with $28.1 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, for 2008
•Non-GAAP net income for 2009 was $38.3 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, compared with $37.9 million, or $1.01 per diluted share for 2008
•Operating cash flow amounted to $47.9 million for the full year 2009, compared to $47.7 million for 2008.
Business Outlook
Mr. Jilot added, “Looking at the fourth quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010, the anticipated changes to solar incentives in Germany and Italy have accelerated sales throughout the solar module supply chain. While we believe this is a long-term positive development for the industry, we expect that it could cause atypical sequential growth for STR compared with historical quarterly sales patterns. Overall, STR has a positive outlook for 2010 supported by our continued momentum into Asia, ambitious goals for clean energy in the United States, and the overall decline in module prices that we expect will increase end-user volume.”
The Company is providing the following first quarter and full year 2010 financial guidance, which it will discuss in greater detail on the conference call:
(Amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
Quarter Ending March 31, 2010 Low High
Solar net sales $ 52.0 $ 55.0

Green Investor News, Poll: 3 out of 4 Americans Approve of Solar Energy Development on Public Lands
Green Investor News, Poll: 3 out of 4 Americans Approve of Solar Energy Development on Public Lands
Solar farms selected as top energy source for government support
WASHINGTON, March 18 ( Investorideas.com renewable energy/green newswire ) The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) today released new national polling data showing that 75 percent of those surveyed support the development of solar energy plants on public lands not set aside for national parks or nature preserves. The poll was conducted by Gotham Research Group.
"This polling data confirms what we already knew," said SEIA President and CEO Rhone Resch. "The American public overwhelmingly supports the development of solar energy. It is time for our elected officials to respond to this high public demand and enact policies that allow solar to compete with other energy sources on a level playing field."
The survey also revealed that solar power was the top choice (38 percent) as the best use of public land. Respondents also selected solar farms and wind power (22 percent each) as the top energy sources that the government should prioritize for support, beating out natural gas (16 percent), nuclear (16 percent), oil (11 percent) and coal (4 percent).
The outlook for utility-scale solar in the U.S. is promising. Five new plants came online in 2009 (total 58 MW) and there are more than 100 utility-scale solar projects under development. These projects represent more than 17 gigawatts of capacity, enough to provide clean power to 3.4 million households and will create more than 100,000 American jobs.
"We expect a banner year for 2010, with more than 200 megawatts of utility-scale projects coming online," added Resch.
The findings of the survey are based on polling conducted from February 24 through February 26, 2010 among a representative sample of 500 U.S. adults, age 18+. The margin of error on the total sample of 500 is +/- 4.4 percent.
About SEIA:
Established in 1974, the Solar Energy Industries Association is the national trade association of the solar energy industry. As the voice of the industry, SEIA works with its 1,000 members to make solar a mainstream and significant energy source by expanding markets, removing market barriers, strengthening the industry and educating the public on the benefits of solar energy.

Evergreen Solar (NasdaqGM: ESLR) Announces Opening of New European Headquarters in Berlin
Evergreen Solar (NasdaqGM: ESLR) Announces Opening of New European Headquarters in Berlin
Key location will expand company’s presence in German market
MARLBORO, Mass. and BERLIN-- October 26 2009 - Evergreen Solar, Inc. (NasdaqGM: ESLR), a manufacturer of String Ribbon™ solar power products with its proprietary, low-cost silicon wafer technology, today announced that it has opened a new European headquarters in Berlin, Germany, further increasing the company’s presence in the German market.
Evergreen Solar began its European operations in 2002 and became a fully-registered German company in 2004. Since that time European sales have grown nearly 20 times, equivalent to a 180% compound annual growth rate. The new Berlin headquarters will help the company keep pace with the rapid business growth in the European market, particularly in Germany, a country featuring notable incentives for commercial and residential solar installations.
The new headquarters is located at Wallstraße 65, 10179 Berlin.
“Berlin is an ideal location for us to establish our European headquarters,” said Peter Rusch, Managing Director of Evergreen Solar GmbH and Vice President of Sales for Evergreen Solar, Inc. “Our excellent products and strong relationships with customers have allowed us to establish ourselves very quickly as a leader across the European market.”
Evergreen Solar produces high output solar panels that are the most environmentally friendly of any silicon-based panel. They have the smallest carbon footprint with the quickest energy payback of any silicon based panels in the industry.
“Evergreen Solar’s panels produce more electricity and less impact on the environment than any other silicon based panel,” Rusch said. “If you want to judge the performance of a panel the delivery of kilowatt hours per kilowatts installed is the best measure. From an ecological impact of a solar panel, the carbon footprint and energy payback are the most important factors. That’s what stands behind our slogan: More electricity, less impact.”
The European headquarters is in addition to the company’s worldwide headquarters in Marlboro, Mass., USA. The company also has a sales office for the Asia Pacific Region in California, as well as manufacturing plants in Devens, Mass., Midland, Michigan and one currently under construction in Wuhan, China.

Solar news - NASA's Stennis Space Center Equips Green Facility with Solar-LED Lighting from Carmanah Technologies
NASA's Stennis Space Center Equips Green Facility with Solar-LED Lighting from Carmanah Technologies
VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA (July 16, 2009) NASA's Stennis Space Center Mississippi is lighting a new onsite parking facility with solar-LED technology. As part of the Stennis Space Center's new Cryogenics Control Center facility, the car park will be equipped with bright and efficient EverGEN™ 1520 solar-LED parking lot lights from Carmanah Technologies.
Recently showcased at the LIGHTFAIR International tradeshow and conference in New York City, Carmanah's EverGEN™ 1500-series lights represent the company's most powerful solar-LED area lights to date. Designed as a practical alternative to traditional HID (high intensity discharge) lights, the powerful new design combines the performance of a hard-wired streetlight with the convenience and versatility of a stand-alone solution. AMA Lighting, Carmanah's authorized lighting representative for the region, will work closely with NASA throughout the installation process.
As part of a LEED green-building project, NASA needed a lighting system that was both powerful and energy efficient. Traditional hard-wired lighting options would have exceeded the Center's total allowable energy consumption and affected the facility's LEED rating, so to meet the facility's stringent lighting requirements without increasing overall electricity usage, NASA engineers identified Carmanah's solar-powered LED lights as the perfect solution. An installation of EverGEN 1520 lights would provide a reliable source of bright, uniform light while consuming no additional electricity. As a stand-alone alternative to traditional hard-wired streetlights, Carmanah solar-powered lights deliver effective outdoor illumination without trenching, cabling or grid access. Featuring custom fixtures by leading LED-lighting designer Beta Lighting, Carmanah solar-powered lights offer superior output and performance in accordance with IESNA (Illuminating Engineering Society of North America) guidelines. A full-cutoff "Dark Sky"-friendly design directs light only where needed (preventing glare or spillover of light onto neighboring properties or into the night sky), while integrated energy management capabilities ensure optimal lighting performance year round.
Carmanah solar LED lights are available now from Carmanah Technologies.
