2016 Year Highlights:
Revenue of $115.1 million, up 10%, which includes:
- $4.2 million of first quarter revenue from Wachs Water Services (“WWS”), acquired April 2015;
- $6.4 million of organic growth, mostly due to a 41% increase in PureHM revenue (oil and gas pipeline integrity division);
Gross margin percentage increased to 78% (2015 – 76%), due to reduced direct project costs and favourable revenue mix
Adjusted EBITDA of $15.1 million, up 14%, reflecting:
- PureHM business growth; improved gross margins; Water Division cost savings
Offset by: - Delayed Americas and International segment activity; increased marketing investment in the Americas segment; and
- Lower WWS activity during 2016, however, showing signs of improvement (bookings up 31% at the end of 2016)
- PureHM business growth; improved gross margins; Water Division cost savings
Cash flow from operations (before working capital changes) increased to $14.6 million from $11.4 million in 2015 as a result of the aforementioned reasons
Profit increased to $1.3 million from a $0.1 million loss in 2015
At year-end, Pure had no debt, $5.4 million of cash, $34.3 million of working capital and a $10 million undrawn credit facility
