Title:
|
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
|
|
| • |
Q4 revenue up 714% versus prior year to $2.9 million, on increased customer demand for fuel cell components, and, fuel cell systems from UltraCell (now Advent LLC), SerEnergy (now Advent Technologies A/S), SerEnergy Philippines, Inc. (now Advent Green Energy Philippines, Inc.), and fischer eco solutions (now Advent Technologies GmbH). The Company also collected $3.0 million from SerEnergy customers during Q4 related to
pre-acquisition revenue.
|
| • |
Full year 2021 revenue of $7.1 million; on a pro forma basis as if SerEnergy and fischer eco solutions had been acquired at the beginning of the year, 2021 revenue would have been $16.0 million.
|
| • |
Net loss in Q4 of $(9.0) million or $(0.18) per share.
|
| • |
Company holds cash reserves of $79.8 million as of December 31, 2021.
|
| • |
Revenue of $2.9 million, a 714% year-over-year increase, the result of increased customer demand for Advent’s products across the board and through the acquisitions of UltraCell, SerEnergy, SerEnergy
Philippines, Inc. and fischer eco solutions.
|
| • |
Operating expenses of $16.3 million, a year-over-year increase of $14.4 million, primarily due to costs related to the accelerated growth of the Company from the acquired businesses; increased staffing and costs to operate as a public
company; higher R&D costs; and incentive and stock-based compensation expenses.
|
| • |
Net loss was $(9.0) million, and adjusted net loss was $(15.9) million. Adjusted net loss excludes a $6.9 million gain from the change in the fair value of outstanding warrants.
|
| • |
Net loss per share was $(0.18).
|
| • |
Cash reserves were $79.8 million as of December 31, 2021, a decrease of $12.7 million from September 30, 2021, driven by the increased level of R&D and administrative and selling expenses.
