New Generation Biofuels Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: NGBF) ("NGBF" or
the "Company"), a leader in renewable fuels technology, announced
today its financial results for the third quarter ended September
30, 2010.
Net loss for the third quarter ending September 30, 2010, was
$1.2 million, compared to a net loss of $1.7 million for the third
quarter of 2009. For the first nine months of 2010, the net loss
was $7.1 million, versus a net loss of $10.3 million for the first
nine months of 2009. For the three months and nine months ended
September 30, 2010, the Company had revenues of $-0- and $6,351,
respectively. This is compared to revenues of $34,412 for the three
and $77,048 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The
decrease in revenue was due solely to working capital constraints,
not customer demand. During 2010, the production facility in
Baltimore has been utilized primarily to make fuel for prospective
customer testing and for R&D activities including testing new
production processes. We expect to produce and ship fuel once we
have secured additional working capital.
Net cash used in operating activities was $3.7 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2010, versus $5.2 million used in
last year's comparable period. As of September 30, 2010, the
Company had cash on hand of approximately $0.22 million, and will
need to complete another financing during the fourth quarter.
Recent Developments
-- Miles F. Mahoney joined the Company as President and Chief Executive
Officer. He also serves as a Director. Mr. Mahoney brings strong
experience in technology development, business development and product
commercialization. Most recently, Mr. Mahoney served as President and
COO of Evergreen Energy, a leader in the global $3 trillion greenhouse
gas and carbon credit trading marketplace.
-- The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $2.4 million in a
series of four transactions with institutional investors. Three of the
transactions were completed under the Company's shelf registration
statement in August, September and October. The most recent
transaction, closed in early November, consists of convertible notes
carrying a conversion price of $0.14 per share.
-- In the third quarter, the Company recorded a gain on debt
extinguishment of $1.3 million resulting from the negotiated settlement
of certain liabilities and the amendment of the lease on the Baltimore
production facility. Pursuant to the agreement to amend the lease the
Company made a payment of $290,000 in cash and also issued 300,000
shares of restricted common stock. In consideration of the payment,
the landlord agreed to forfeit past due amounts under the lease
agreement, terminate and forfeit minimum payments due for terminating
services under a separate agreement, and reduce the monthly lease rate
from $80,000 to $25,000 for the remaining lease term of three years.
Included in the $290,000 payment is $100,000 representing the August
reduced lease payment and prepayment of the monthly $25,000 rent for
September, October and November of 2010. As a result of the lease
amendment, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $570,000 and
reduced future obligations by approximately $2.9 million. The balance
of the recorded gain was related to settling trade payables, primarily
professional services rendered by 19 vendors. The Company settled
$1.9M of debt for cash payments totaling $467,000 and 585,000 shares of
restricted common stock.
"I'm excited to be joining New Generation Biofuels at this
important juncture in the Company's development and I'm prepared to
address the challenges we face, including ensuring that we have the
financial resources needed to grow the Company and create long-term
value for our shareholders," commented Miles, F Mahoney, President
and Chief Executive Officer. "The Company has been able to improve
its financial condition by raising capital and settling a number of
debts and we must continue to make rapid progress in putting the
Company on a solid financial footing. Securing adequate funding,
continuing to advance our technology, completing a strategic
partnership, and commercializing our technology are my highest
priorities."
Mr. Maloney continued, "I appreciate the Board's confidence in
presenting me with this opportunity to lead the Company. I would
also like to thank our shareholders for their continued interest
and patience. Moving forward, we are committed to clear, consistent
communications with stated objectives by which we can measure our
progress. I invite you to visit our website and view the recently
posted CEO letter for additional comments on my objectives and the
Company's value drivers."
