Fuel Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: FTEK), a technology company providing advanced engineering solutions for the optimization of combustion systems, emissions control, and water treatment in utility and industrial applications, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021 (“Q3 2021”).
“We reported profitable operations in the third quarter, progressed in the ongoing development of our Dissolved Gas Infusion (DGITM) business, and ended the quarter with $36.3 million in total cash and no debt,” said Vincent J. Arnone, President and CEO.
“Our FUEL CHEM® segment continued to perform well, with higher revenues and segment operating profits compared to the same period last year. FUEL CHEM benefitted from the operations of our current installed base, including recent program installations; an overall rise in demand for energy attributable to the resumption of economic activity following a period of reduced activity due to the impact of COVID-19; and increased seasonal power usage. Revenues at FUEL CHEM for the first nine months of 2021 equaled revenues produced by this segment for all of 2020.
“Our Air Pollution Control (APC) business continued to face headwinds due to ongoing project delays and cancellations that have resulted in a lack of new orders, and changes in project timing. However, as previously announced we secured $4.5 million in new contracts during Q3 2021 from customers in Korea, North America and Europe. We are also encouraged by the pace and depth of our business development activities, which reflect an increased focus on global emissions protocols across a variety of fuel sources. Our current global sales pipeline has increased to $50 -75 million from the $40-50 million range, and we have good visibility to incremental contracts to be awarded before the end of Q4 2021 in the amount of $3 to $5 million.”
Mr. Arnone continued, “With respect to our DGI business, we completed successful demonstrations at three locations in the United States and continue to work with these potential customers to determine next steps. We also completed the fabrication of a higher capacity DGI equipment delivery system that will allow us to meet the anticipated dissolved oxygen requirements of the majority of the potential customer applications that we are likely to encounter. Finally, we are close to completing a market opportunity assessment in conjunction with an outside firm that we believe will assist our long-term product commercialization activities.”
Q3 2021 Consolidated Results Overview
Consolidated revenues for the quarter declined to $7.6 million from $8.2 million in Q3 2020, reflecting higher revenues at FUEL CHEM offset by revenue declines in the APC segment.
Gross margin for Q3 2021 was 49.2% of revenues compared to 72.4% of revenues in Q3 2020. Gross margin in Q3 2020 reflected a $2.6 million insurance settlement (“the settlement”) that reduced cost of sales at the APC business by a like amount. Excluding the settlement, consolidated gross margin for Q3 2020 was 40.7%.
SG&A expenses declined to $2.8 from $3.2 million in Q3 2020, reflecting lower employee expenses and professional services.
Operating income was $0.6 million compared to operating income of $2.4 million in Q3 2020. Excluding the impact of the settlement, operating loss in Q3 2020 was $0.2 million.
Net income in Q3 2021 was $0.7 million, or $0.02 per share, compared to net income of $2.4 million, or $0.10 per share, in Q3 2020. Excluding the impact of the settlement, net loss in Q3 2020 was $0.2 million, or $(0.01) per share.

Adjusted EBITDA
To supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), the Company has provided an Adjusted EBITDA disclosure as a measure of financial performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation expense, amortization expense, stock compensation expense, and intangible assets abandonment and building impairment. The Company's reference to these non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP standards, but are not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results.
Adjusted EBITDA is provided to enhance investors' overall understanding of the Company's current financial performance and ability to generate cash flow, which we believe is a meaningful measure for our investor and analyst communities. In many cases non-GAAP financial measures are utilized by these individuals to evaluate Company performance and ultimately determine a reasonable valuation for our common stock. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the nearest GAAP measure of net income (loss) has been included in the above financial table.
