Announces Conference Call to be held on Thursday, August 14th at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time
SCOTTSDALE, AZ and
CALGARY, AB, July 30, 2014 /PRNewswire/ - RDX Technologies
Corporation ("RDX" or the "Company") (TSXV: RDX, OTCQX: RGDEF,
FSE:RL7), a water treatment and energy technology company,
today announced financial results for the fiscal year ending
March 31, 2014.
Fiscal 2014 highlights:
- Revenues more than doubled from $16.4MM to $33.7MM
- Adjusted EBITDA improved from a loss of $4.34MM to positive $553,449
Recent operating highlights:
- Sold excess Santa Fe Springs real estate holdings for
$12.5MM
- Increased balance sheet cash to $6MM from Santa Fe Springs and
franchise sales
- Converted to methyl ester fuel refining and direct ion exchange
refining
- Began direct service program for waste water producers that
includes transportation
- Started work to expand waste water operations in Virginia, New
York, Ohio, and
Arizona
- Completed first pipeline right of way in Odessa, Texas for the delivery of water to oil
and gas operators
- Completing initial survey work and planning for new pipeline
and treatment facilities in Midwest
Wyoming
Dennis M. Danzik, Chief Executive
Officer of RDX, stated, "We are extremely pleased with both our
financial and operational performance in fiscal 2014. As expected,
we again achieved significant growth by more than doubling revenues
and reporting the Company's first positive adjusted
EBITDA. In addition, we are extremely well
positioned to continue this strong growth for the foreseeable
future. As a company, we utilized our fourth quarter as a cleanup
period to correct the many challenges at the Carthage facility that were created prior to
our acquisition of the facility. RDX's refined fuel now exceeds our
customers and regulators expectations. In fact, Omega Proteins has
chosen to highlight our energy products in several press releases.
We expect to see more of our customers recognizing RDX in a very
positive light over the next several months."
"In the coming months, we expect to move the Company forward
through the aggressive sale of additional franchise operations in
Arizona, Texas, Ohio,
Virginia, and Georgia. We also have active negotiations
taking place in Canada and
Europe."
Mr. Danzik continued, "RDX has demonstrated its ability to
acquire and integrate underperforming assets, install our
proprietary technologies, direct sound engineering practices,
enhance operations, implement strict financial controls, and
thereby improve both revenue and profitability. In the
face of this type of growth, controlling finances and budgets is
difficult, but the management and staff at RDX are performing well.
RDX has developed a highly scalable business model that will enable
us to maintain strong growth and enhance profitability in the
months and years ahead."

We believe that presenting EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to
investors because they provide important information concerning our
operating performance exclusive of certain non-cash and other
costs. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA demonstrate our ability to
execute our financial strategy, which includes reinvesting in waste
water related capital assets to ensure a high level of product
quality, investing in capital assets to facilitate growth in our
energy business, repurchasing our common stock, and maintaining and
improving our market position through business optimization.
These measures have limitations. Although amortization and
share-based payment expenses are considered operating costs in
accordance with IFRS and US GAAP, they represent the allocation of
non-cash costs generally associated with long-lived assets acquired
or constructed in prior years and non-cash compensation primarily
for our employees. Our definition of EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented
by other companies.
