HOUSTON, Nov. 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Koil Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: KLNG) (“Koil Energy” or the “Company”), a specialist in deepwater production and distribution equipment and services, today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Charles Njuguna, Koil Energy’s CEO, commented, “While our earnings for the third quarter didn’t live up to our expectations, we are encouraged by our increased revenues for the quarter. Compared to the same quarter a year ago, revenues increased by 82% and were driven by sustained growth in service projects and our expanding backlog of product-oriented, fixed price contracts. This heightened level of project activity also drove the year-over-year improvement in modified EBITDA of $1 million.
“We believe the fundamentals of the offshore oil and gas markets remain compelling for our business. The durability of the current growth cycle for the oil and gas industry is motivating operators to continue investing in offshore developments. This translates to an increased level of bidding requests from our customers, and as a result, we have recently received several contract awards involving the design, engineering, and manufacturing of hose and steel tube flying leads and electrical and hydraulic distribution manifolds for various locations in the Gulf of Mexico. These recent orders caused our project backlog to grow by approximately fifty percent when compared to this time last year.
"While we have more work to do, we are determined to build on this momentum to further drive efficiencies throughout the organization to better manage cash flow, preserve liquidity, and stay true to our commitments. We are confident our streamlined operations and continued focus on our core strengths will allow us to increase productivity and steadily grow investment in our people, products, and technologies."
Operating Results
Koil Energy’s revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 (“Q3 2023”) of $4.1 million represent an 82% increase when compared to revenues of $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 (“Q3 2022”). Gross profit for Q3 2023 was $1.4 million, or 33 percent of revenues, compared to Q3 2022 gross profit of $0.3 million, or 12 percent of revenues. The comparative improvement in Q3 2023 results reflects an increase in both service projects and product-oriented, fixed priced projects as well as the impact of lower rent expense.
Total operating expenses were $1.6 million, or 39 percent of revenues, in Q3 2023 compared to $1.7 million, or 75 percent of revenues, in Q3 2022. The $0.1 million, or 7 percent, decrease in operating expenses was mainly due to relocation costs incurred by the Company in Q3 2022 that were not repeated in Q3 2023. This decrease was partially offset by higher research and development costs and finance lease payments in Q3 2023 when compared to Q3 2022.
Due to the factors discussed above, Koil Energy reported a Q3 2023 net loss of $0.1 million, or a $0.01 loss per diluted share, compared to a Q3 2022 net loss of $1.6 million, or a $0.13 loss per diluted share. Per share results for Q3 2023 and Q3 2022 are based on 11.89 million weighted average shares outstanding.
Koil Energy reported a modified EBITDA of $17 thousand in Q3 2023 compared to a modified EBITDA of negative $1.0 million in Q3 2022. The increase in modified EBITDA was primarily driven by gross profit improvement associated with the increase in both service project and product-oriented, fixed price project activity in Q3 2023 when compared to Q3 2022.
Financial Position
At September 30, 2023, working capital totaled $3.4 million, which includes cash of $1.1 million and receivables of $5.5 million. This is compared to $3.6 million of working capital at the beginning of the year, which includes cash of $2.4 million and receivables of $2.9 million. Shareholders’ equity totaled $6.5 million, or approximately $0.55 per common share, at September 30, 2023, compared to $7.1 million, or approximately $0.59 per common share, at the beginning of the year. The Company maintains access to a factoring arrangement with Amegy Bank Business Credit (“Amegy”), and the Company had one factored invoice outstanding with Amegy at September 30, 2023.
