PFTI Puradyn Filter Technologies Inc (CE)

Puradyn Filter Technologies Incorporated (OTCQB: PFTI) today announced financial results for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Net sales decreased 4.1% in 2012 compared to 2011, or net sales of $2.57 million in 2012 compared to net sales of $2.68 million in 2011. The decrease was attributable primarily to one of our international customers slowing their demand for our product due to a reduction in their operations.

International sales decreased approximately 32.7% in 2012 compared to 2011 and domestic sales increased approximately 4.8% in 2012 compared to 2011. Net loss in 2012 was approximately $2.23 million or ($0.05) per share, basic and diluted, as compared to a net loss of approximately $1.61 million or ($0.04) per share, basic and diluted in the previous year.

Loss from operations remained consistent at approximately $1.44 million in 2012 and 2011. Cost of products sold, as a percentage of sales, decreased slightly to approximately 75.8% for 2012 and approximately 77.3% for 2011.

Kevin G. Kroger, President and COO, stated, “2012 was a disappointing year for us with respect to total revenue. However, interest in our product has shown signs of new growth after a recent article in a trade publication, which, for the first time, quoted one of our largest customers, showing their annual cost savings from operations have exceeded $5 million through the use of our bypass oil filtration systems. In addition, they reduced their waste oil disposal by over 373,000 gallons, a significant reduction of their carbon footprint.

“With increased interest in the mining and commercial marine industries, as well as new interest from overseas, we remain optimistic for 2013.”
