| Akeena Solar公布了公司2010年第二季度业绩报告。第二季度，公司总收入为990万美元，较上一季度业绩上升了54%，比去年同期收入提高了68%，创下六个季度以来的最高纪录。 Akeena Solar, Inc. today reported revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010 of $9.9 million, its highest level in six quarters, and $3.5 million, or 54%, higher than the first quarter of 2010. For the second quarter, residential installation revenue reached $7.5 million, compared with $4.7 million for the second quarter last year, and $5.7 million for the first quarter of 2010. Distribution revenue for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.2 million, compared with $202,000 for the second quarter last year, and $729,000 for the first quarter of 2010. "Our revenue performance during the quarter reflects the growing consumer interest in our revolutionary AC solar panels, our progress in developing new distribution channels and our improving operational efficiency," said Gary Effren, president. "Residential installation revenue grew each month during the second quarter reaching $7.5 million, our highest result since the fourth quarter of 2008 and our best quarter ever for California residential installation revenue. Distribution revenue also had a record quarter and contributed 22% of total revenue. Additionally, since entering the distribution business one year ago, we have increased our dealer network of solar installers, HVAC contractors, electricians and roofers to 100 dealers located in 30 states and Canada. "This revenue momentum, along with ongoing cost control, support our plan to reach cash flow breakeven on approximately $18 million in revenue in the fourth quarter of this year," concluded Effren. Company to Operate Under Name Westinghouse Solar and Trade Under Ticker WEST Management also announced that the company will operate under the name Westinghouse Solar and, effective July 23 at the opening of the market, the company's stock will begin trading as Akeena Solar, Inc. dba Westinghouse Solar under the stock symbol WEST. Subject to shareholder approval, the company plans to complete the required steps to change the name of the corporation to Westinghouse Solar. Until then, the company will make filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the name Akeena Solar, Inc. dba Westinghouse Solar. The company's installation business in California will continue to operate under the name Akeena Solar. "Solar is going mainstream, and well-known brand names are key to widespread consumer adoption. In May, we announced a partnership with Westinghouse, which unites their trusted brand name with our safe and reliable solar panels," said Barry Cinnamon, CEO. "As Westinghouse Solar, we will continue to drive the adoption of solar power through our own installation services, through our retail channel via Lowe's Home Improvement stores and through our expanding dealer channel network in the United States and Canada." Second Quarter Financial Results Net revenue for the second quarter of 2010 was $9.9 million, an increase of 68.0%, compared to $5.9 million in net revenue for the second quarter of 2009, and an increase of 53.7% from first quarter net revenue of $6.5 million. Residential installation revenue for the second quarter of 2010 was $7.5 million, compared to $4.7 million for the second quarter last year and $5.7 million for the first quarter of 2010. The year-over-year and sequential increase in residential installations is due to the increase in kilowatts installed, partially offset by lower residential average selling prices. Distribution revenue was $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $202,000 for the second quarter last year and $729,000 for the first quarter of 2010. The increase in distribution revenue is due to the growth of our distribution network. Commercial revenue was $205,000 for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $665,000 for the second quarter last year and $36,000 for the first quarter of 2010 due to the continued tight credit market. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.1 million, or 21.0% of revenue, compared to $1.2 million, or 19.7% of revenue, for the second quarter of 2009, and $1.5 million, or 23.0% of revenue, for the first quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase in gross margin primarily reflects lower margins in the prior year related to higher subcontractor labor costs associated with our exit from the Colorado direct installation business. On a sequential basis, second quarter 2010 gross margin decreased as a result of the higher mix of distribution revenue. The average selling price for installations in the quarter was $6.36 per watt compared to $7.51 per watt a year ago and $6.52 per watt in the first quarter. The year-over-year and sequential decreases in average selling price for installations reflect lower system prices associated with the market decline of panel costs. Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were $5.4 million, compared to $4.3 million for the same period last year, and $4.8 million for the first quarter of 2010. The year-over-year increase of $1.1 million is due to higher general and administrative costs of $597,000 and higher sales and marketing expense of $521,000. The general and administrative cost increase was driven by higher payroll, research and development costs, and the higher sales and marketing expense reflects volume-related increases in advertising, payroll and commission costs supporting the higher revenue. As compared to the first quarter of 2010, total operating expenses were $632,000 higher due to the favorable bad debt adjustment of $675,000 recorded in the first quarter. Stock-based compensation expense was $414,000 for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $458,000 for the same period last year and $553,000 in the first quarter. Cash operating expenses (adjusted for stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization expense) were $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2010, compared to $3.7 million for the same period last year and $4.1 million for the first quarter of 2010. Cash operating expenses were $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2010 excluding the favorable bad debt adjustment of $675,000. Net loss for the second quarter of 2010 was $2.5 million, or $0.06 per share, compared to a net loss of $4.7 million, or $0.14 per share, for the second quarter of 2009, and a net loss of $2.4 million or $0.07 per share, for the first quarter of 2010. Net loss for the first and second quarters of 2010 included a favorable non-cash adjustment to the fair value of common stock warrants of $884,000 and $911,000, respectively. Net loss for the second quarter of 2009 included a non-cash charge of $1.5 million to reflect the fair value of common stock warrants. Excluding the adjustments to reflect the fair value of warrants in all periods, net loss for the second quarter of 2010 would have been $3.4 million or $0.09 per share, compared to $3.1 million, or $0.10 per share, for the same period last year and $3.3 million, or $0.09 per share, for the first quarter of 2010. Installations for the quarter amounted to 1,211 kilowatts, compared to 716 kilowatts in the same quarter last year and 878 kilowatts in the first quarter of 2010. Backlog as of June 30, 2010 was $8.9 million, compared to $7.5 million as of June 30, 2009 and $11.4 million at March 31, 2010. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2010 were $4.9 million. There was no balance drawn on the $1.0 million cash-backed line at the end of the quarter. Common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2010 were 40.7 million compared to 37.2 million at March 31, 2010. The number of employees at the end of the second quarter of 2010 was 176 full time equivalents, compared to 125 at June 30, 2009 and 164 at March 31, 2010. Outlook Management continues to project EBITDAS (excluding non-cash stock-based compensation) breakeven for the fourth quarter of 2010 at a revenue level of approximately $18 million with approximately 25% of the revenue from distribution. |
