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 second quarter ended June 30, 2021 (“Q2 2021”).
“Our Q2 2021 revenues rose 18.6% from the second quarter of 2020 (“Q2 2020”), driven by a 72% revenue improvement for the FUEL CHEM® segment attributable to contributions from recent installations of our TIFI® Targeted In-Furnace Injection technology on new domestic accounts, increased demand for power, and the ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Vincent J. Arnone, President and CEO. “We believe that our FUEL CHEM business segment will continue to produce strong results for the balance of 2021, with upside potential derived from application opportunities in the U.S. and internationally.
“Our Air Pollution Control (APC) business remained challenged in Q2 2021 due to ongoing pandemic-driven project delays and cancellations that have resulted in a lack of new orders, and project timing. We were pleased to recently announce $4.5 million in new contracts from customers in Korea, North America, and Europe, and view this as a reflection of a strengthening post-COVID business procurement environment. We believe that our greatest opportunities lie in industrial applications, led by our Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and ULTRA® technologies, and we continue to pursue a current global sales pipeline of $40-50 million.”
Mr. Arnone continued, “During Q2 2021, we completed on-site demonstrations of our Dissolved Gas Infusion (DGITM) at two locations in the United States – the first at a pulp and paper facility in the Northwest that is looking to increase its production capacity later this year, and the second at a municipal wastewater treatment facility on the west coast that was intended to show the benefits of supplemental oxygenation that could be provided by DGI during periods of high waste treatment volume for the municipality. These incremental, yet important demonstrations proved the efficacy of our advanced aeration technology as an adjunct to existing wastewater treatment processes at the facilities.”
He concluded, “We ended the second quarter with a strong balance sheet and have no debt. We are well-positioned to pursue a variety of business development growth initiatives and continue to monitor proposed federal infrastructure spending related to the reduction of harmful emissions.”
Q2 2021 Consolidated Results Overview
Consolidated revenues for the quarter increased 18.6% to $5.2 million from $4.4 million in Q2 2020, reflecting higher revenues for FUEL CHEM offset by revenue declines in the APC segment.
Gross margin for Q2 2021 was 49.5% of revenues compared to 13.7% of revenues in Q2 2020. Gross margin in Q2 2020 included a $1.1 million charge for an APC product warranty issue; excluding this charge, consolidated gross margin for Q2 2020 was 40%.
SG&A expenses rose to $3.0 million from $2.8 million in Q2 2020, reflecting higher administrative and employee expenses, offset by a reversal of a $0.5 million charge to the allowance for doubtful accounts recorded in Q2 2020.
Operating loss narrowed to $(0.7) million from an operating loss of $(2.4) million in Q2 2020.
Net loss narrowed to $(0.8) million, or $(0.03) per share, compared to a net loss of $(2.5) million, or $(0.10) per share, in Q2 2020.
Consolidated APC segment backlog at June 30, 2021 was $4.9 million compared to $5.3 million at December 31, 2020. Backlog at June 30, 2021 included $4.6 million of domestic backlog as compared to $4.9 million of domestic backlog at December 31, 2020. Backlog at June 30, 2021 did not include $4.5 million in new contracts from customers in Korea, North America, and Europe awarded in July 2021.
APC segment revenues declined to $1.0 million in Q2 2021 from $1.9 million in Q2 2020, primarily the result of delayed projects related to the COVID-19 pandemic. APC gross margin in Q2 2021 was $0.5 million, or 48.6% of revenue, compared to gross margin of $(0.4) million in Q2 2020 that included the above-referenced $1.1 million charge. Excluding the charge, APC gross margin for Q2 2020 was $0.7 million, or 39%.
FUEL CHEM segment revenues rose to $4.2 million, up 71.8% from $2.4 million in Q2 2020. This increase primarily reflected higher power demand and recovery from the initial emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, which impacted results in the prior year period. Segment gross margin improved to 49.7% in Q2 2021 from 40.0% in Q1 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA loss for the quarter was $(0.6) million in Q2 2021 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(2.2) million in Q2 2020.

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.
