After the bell, Eguana Technologies (TSXV: EGT) released their 2020 audited annual financial statements. The company saw annual revenue grow by 132% to $7.9M for the year ended September 30, 2020. Gross margins for the year came in at just over 11% a dramatic increase from the 2% margins in 2019; demonstrating the margin improvement shareholders are looking for as the company scales.
The company burned $2.9M of cash on the year; a massive improvement from having burned over $7.6M in the previous year. In March 2020, the company saw a $5M strategic investment from Japanese based trading house ITOCHU who sits as a partner in the deployment of a potential virtual power plant. Eguana also improved their working capital constraints by transitioning their LG Chem battery supply chain to ITOCHU, enabling them to scale faster without relying on a lengthy cash cycle.
On the balance sheet side, the company likely finds itself in great shape as a result of the recent strength in its share price which last closed at 39.5c. Almost all of the company’s convertible debt, warrants, and options are now in the money; when converted or exercised they will see a balance sheet with reduced debt and an increased cash position.
CEO Justin Holland will be joining us on SmallCapSteve LIVE tomorrow to answer questions to our audience.
