Simon Bolton, CEO of Envipco: "Q1 2021 sees the Company continuing its recovery from 2020; this quarter shows quarterly revenues now above both 2020 and 2019 levels. We successfully concluded a private placement and share listing on the Oslo Growth Market, a satisfactory settlement with DPG in a long-running litigation case, and confirmation of forgiveness of our initial PPP loan. These developments have strengthened our financial position. We continue to focus on building the business to execute on future growth including market development organization and capability, product development, and manufacturing capacity. I am excited about the company we are building and its prospects in 2021"
Overall revenue was up 17% on a currency adjusted basis in Q1 2021 compared to Q1 2020. Strong RVM sales in North America, Sweden and Australia contributed to the overall growth. Throughput revenue in Q1 2021 was down 14% compared to Q1 2020. The North America container throughput business continued to be COVID impacted in the New York Metro area on slowed re-openings and weather during Q1 2021. More recently though, we have seen recovery in throughput volume as New York fully reopens.
Q1 2021 gross profit of 37% improved 200 basis points when compared to Q1 2020. This improvement was driven by higher RVM sales and net of lost contribution on lower throughput revenues.
Included in Q1 2021 operating profit, are other income items amounting to €3.38m. In February 2021, the company executed a settlement agreement with DPG Deutsche Pfandsystem GmbH in Germany to resolve all pending legal matters. The company recognized income of €1.85m on this settlement. In addition, the company also received formal forgiveness of the 2020 PPP loan and recognized income of €1.51m and sundry income of €0.02m. Without these items, operating profit/(loss) for Q1 2021 would have been a loss €(0.66m) compared to a loss of €(1.30m) in Q1 2020. The improvement in operating loss is driven by increased gross profit on higher RVM sales.
EBITDA improved in Q1 2021 to €3.37m from a negative EBITDA of €(0.43m) in Q1 2020. Excluding the other income items of €3.38m in Q1 2021, EBITDA would have improved to €(0.01m) compared to Q1 2020.
this end we have a successful ongoing test location in the market today and will demonstrate our full product range during Q2/Q3. The company has identified a leading service provider with extensive operations throughout the country and recently concluded recruitment of a Portuguese Managing Director.
The overall market outlook for our North America and European business remains strong. We are confident in our strategy, our investments and our ability to execute in delivering strong growth and financial performance in the future. The company's recent successful capital raise, the litigation settlement, forgiveness of the original PPP loan, a new PPP loan and our existing credit facilities assure us that we have adequate financial resources to aggressively execute on our growth plans. Thereafter, sustained performance and delivery on our growth targets will provide the company ample financing and equity opportunities to fund future growth.
