MPC Energy Solutions reports on Q2 2022 results
Amsterdam/Oslo - 16 August 2022 - MPC Energy Solutions N.V. ("MPCES" or
"Company"), Amsterdam, will publish its Q2 2022 report tomorrow morning. The
Company develops, builds, owns and operates renewable energy projects including
solar PV, wind, hybrid and energy efficiency solutions in Latin America and
Caribbean.
"We are happy to conclude another quarter of progress. The key milestone in the
second quarter was the start of early works for the combined solar plant and
battery energy storage system in St. Kitts. Once operational, this landmark
project will be a key energy source for the nation, significantly reducing their
dependence on imported fossil fuels," said Martin Vogt, CEO of MPC Energy
Solutions.
MPC Energy Solutions also outlined the challenging environment caused by
continued supply chain disruptions and sustained high equipment prices. The
Company has been informed about localized delays from grid operators following
material shortages and longer delivery times, risking a timely connection of
plants to power grids. Delays of up to three months, depending on the respective
local situation, are anticipated, even though construction of the project assets
themselves progresses as planned.
"During the first half-year we entered a new phase of the company following our
acquisition of the operational Los Santos I, a solar PV plant in Mexico. In the
second quarter, this plant continued to perform well, and for the first half as
a whole the project generated USD 1.5 million in revenues with an EBITDA margin
of 74%, which is in line with our expectations," said Martin Vogt.
MPC Energy Solutions recorded an operating loss (EBIT) in the first half-year
2022 of USD 1.6 million (1H 2021: also negative, USD 1.7 million), and a net
loss of USD 1.8 million (unchanged from 1H 2021), reflecting that the company is
still in a build-up phase.
Given the anticipated delays and a postponement of the commercial operation date
for the Company's combined-heat-and-power plant Neol CHP in Puerto Rico, MPC
Energy Solutions reduced its full-year outlook to USD 3.5 million revenues (down
from USD 4.5 to 5.0 million compared to the previous outlook) ad USD 2.2 million
project-level EBITDA (previous: USD 3.1 to 3.5 million).
"Due to the fact that we are experiencing continued delays in obtaining grid
operator approvals for the new plant in Puerto Rico, we find it prudent to lower
our guidance. At the same time, we have officially communicated to the
responsible project partners that we expect to be held fully harmless from any
financial damages the project might incur following the delay," said Martin
Vogt.
The financial results as well as an update on the Company's projects will be
given during a conference call and simultaneous webcast for the investment
community tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. CET (see details below).
