SAN LEANDRO, Calif. -- Energy Recovery, Inc. (Nasdaq:ERII), a leader in the design and development of energy recovery devices for desalination, announced today the unaudited results of its fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. In the fourth quarter of 2010, ERI achieved net revenue of $13 million, a 17% decrease over the same period last year. For the year ended December 31, 2010, net revenue was $46 million, which represented a decrease of 2% over net revenue of $47 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. ERI reported net income of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared to a net profit of $1.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Full year net loss was $3.6 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, compared to a net profit of $3.7 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the same period last year.
"From our numbers, it is obvious that our industry is experiencing the delayed effects of the global economic downturn," said Thomas S. Rooney, Jr., ERI's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our industry first felt the effects of the downturn in late 2009 in the smaller OEM project business. Due to the long sales and construction cycle for large desalination plants, the global recession and credit crises did not significantly impact our large project business until 2010. This is a predictable pattern in capital intensive industries. For 2011, our OEM sales team sees increased activity for smaller desalination projects, which in turn is a positive leading indicator for a rebound in new construction of the larger projects over the next 12 to 18 months," he said.
"As ERI's new CEO, my focus in 2011 will be to improve our leadership position in the desalination business by investing in research and development and improving all operational aspects of the company. In addition, I am looking forward to expanding the reach of ERI's technology into other energy recovery applications in markets outside of desalination."
Outlook
ERI provides the following guidance for 2011:
| Fiscal Year 2011 | |||||||
| Estimated Net Revenue | $36 to $45 million | ||||||
| Estimated Net Loss | $10 to $7 million | ||||||
| Estimated Loss Per Share | $0.19 to $0.13 |
