“Velan’s strong momentum continued in the second
quarter of fiscal 2025 with bookings and sales growing more than
60% and 20% year-over-year, respectively,” said James A. Mannebach,
Chairman of the Board and CEO of Velan. “This dual growth was
driven by our diversified portfolio, global reach and sustained
differentiation in key market segments. At quarter-end, we
announced a contractual agreement with GEH SMR Technologies Canada
Ltd. for the provision of high-quality products and services to
supply a stand-alone small modular reactor (SMR) for Ontario Power
Generation Inc. Given Velan’s development of proprietary valve
technology, which is critical to the deployment of SMR technology,
this initial booking bodes well for larger follow-on orders with
GEH and other solution providers in the rapidly expanding nuclear
sector. Looking ahead to the second half, we are reiterating our
sales growth outlook for the full fiscal year.”
“We are pleased with the robust increase in cash
flow from operations, which reached $10.1 million in the second
quarter and $15.0 million after six months,” added Rishi Sharma,
Chief Financial and Administrative Officer of Velan. “At the
beginning of the year, we pledged to improve cash flow generation
by leveraging the global scale of our business, maximizing
strategic procurement and optimizing inventory management. We are
highly encouraged by quality of execution to this end, as it
enabled us to further reduce our debt. Our net cash position of
$41.3 million at the end of the quarter offers Velan the
flexibility to invest in growth areas and continue to create
sustained value for all shareholders.”

As at August 31, 2024, the backlog stood at
$548.1 million, up $56.6 million, or 11.5%, since the beginning of
the fiscal year, reflecting strong bookings during the first half
of the year. As at August 31, 2024, 72.2% of the backlog,
representing orders of $395.9 million, is deliverable in the next
12 months. Currency movements had a $7.4 million positive effect on
the value of the backlog for the first six months of fiscal
2025.
Bookings for the second quarter of fiscal 2025
were $116.6 million, versus $71.5 million for the same period last
year. This increase reflects higher bookings in North America
driven by new projects for the nuclear power market, including the
strategic Main Services Agreement with GEH SMR Technologies Canada
Ltd., and MRO business. The variation is also due to higher
bookings in Germany for oil refinery projects and in France for the
nuclear power and defense markets. These factors were partially
offset by lower oil and gas bookings in Italy due to large orders
recorded in the corresponding period of fiscal 2024. Currency
movements had a $6.3 million positive effect on the value of
bookings for the quarter.
For the first six months of fiscal 2025,
bookings reached $226.4 million, up from $163.4 million in the
first six months of fiscal 2024. The increase is attributable to
higher bookings in North America, Germany and France, partially
offset by reduced bookings in Italy. Currency movements had a $7.4
million positive effect on the value of bookings for the
period.
As bookings outpaced sales, the Company’s
book-to-bill ratio was 1.18 and 1.29, respectively, for the three-
and six-month periods ended August 31, 2024.
SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
Sales reached $98.6 million, up $18.3 million or
22.8% from the same period last year. The increase is mainly
attributable to higher shipments from Italian operations for the
oil and gas market, from French operations for the nuclear power
market and from North American operations for the defense market.
The variation also reflects non-recurring revenue of $5.2 million
related to a cancelled agreement with a customer on which no gross
profit was recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. These
factors were partially offset by lower MRO shipments in North
America. Currency movements had a $0.6 million negative effect
on sales for the quarter.
Gross profit totaled $26.7 million, up from
$23.4 million last year. The increase is primarily attributable to
higher sales which positively impacted the absorption of fixed
production overhead costs, and a more favorable product mix this
year compared to last, partially offset by higher inventory
provisions and learning curve effects in the early phase of certain
projects for the nuclear power market. Currency movements had a
$0.1 million negative effect on gross profit compared to the same
period last year. As a percentage of sales, gross profit was 27.0%,
compared to 29.1% last year. Excluding the effect of non-recurring
revenue of which no gross profit was recognized, this year’s gross
profit as a percentage of sales was 28.5%.
Administration costs totaled $24.8 million, or
25.1% of sales, compared to $22.6 million, or 28.1% of sales a year
ago. Last year’s costs included $0.3 million in expenses related to
the proposed transaction with Flowserve Corporation. The
year-over-year increase is mainly attributable to higher sales
commissions due to higher business volume.
EBITDA1 amounted to $5.1 million, compared
to $3.0 million last year. Excluding expenses related to the
proposed transaction, last year’s second quarter adjusted EBITDA
was $3.3 million. The year-over-year increase is attributable to
higher volume and resulting higher gross profit, partially offset
by higher administration costs.
Net income amounted to $0.1 million, or $0.01
per share, compared to a net loss of $2.1 million or $0.10 per
share last year. The improvement is primarily attributable to
higher EBITDA. Excluding the after-tax effect of expenses related
to the proposed transaction, last year’s adjusted net loss was $1.9
million, or $0.09 per share.
SIX-MONTH RESULTS
Sales totaled $176.1 million, compared to $148.0
million for the same period last year. Gross profit reached $50.5
million, compared to $38.4 million a year ago. As a percentage of
sales, gross profit was 28.7%, compared to 23.0% last year.
Excluding the effect of non-recurring revenue, this year’s gross
profit as a percentage of sales was 29.5%.
EBITDA was $8.9 million, compared to negative
$0.8 million last year, while adjusted EBITDA stood at $9.0
million, up from breakeven in the first half of fiscal 2024.
Net loss amounted to $1.0 million, or $0.05 per
share, compared to a net loss of $10.4 million or $0.48 per share
last year. Adjusted net loss was $0.9 million, or $0.04 per share,
versus an adjusted net loss of $9.8 million, or $0.45 per share,
last year.
FINANCIAL POSITION
As at August 31, 2024, the Company held cash and
cash equivalents of $44.5 million and short-term investments of
$4.8 million. Bank indebtedness stood at $3.2 million, while
long-term debt, including the current portion, amounted to $22.6
million.
OUTLOOK
As at August 31, 2024, orders amounting to
$395.9 million, representing 72.2% of a total backlog of $548.1
million, are expected to be delivered in the next 12 months. Given
these orders, the Company anticipates that sales in the second half
the year will continue to support its expectations to deliver sales
growth in fiscal 2025.
DIVIDEND
The Company opted to declare no dividend this
quarter.
