Press Release.
The following is the text of the press release dated March 31, 2010
reporting Transtech Industries, Inc.'s results of operations for the year
ended December 31, 2009.
TRANSTECH INDUSTRIES, INC. REPORTS RESULTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009
PISCATAWAY, N.J., March 31, 2010 - Robert V. Silva, President and
Chief Executive Officer of Transtech Industries, Inc. (OTC BULLETIN
BOARD:TRTI) announced the results of operations for the year ended December
31, 2009. The Company's subsidiaries perform environmental services and
generate electricity utilizing methane gas as fuel.
Revenues for the electricity generation segment for the year ended
December 31, 2009 were $413,000 versus $689,000 reported for 2008. The
decrease in revenue reflects the decline in the price received per kilowatt
generated as the kilowatt output increased 11% in 2009. Gross revenues of
the environmental services segment for year ended December 31, 2009 were
$658,000 versus $737,000 reported for 2008. The environmental services
performed in both years were conducted on sites owned or leased by members
of the consolidated group and therefore eliminated in the calculation of
net revenues.
The cost of operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 were
$2,458,000 versus $2,764,000 reported for 2008. The net decrease in costs
was primarily due to a decrease in professional fees and general operating
expenses.
Other income for year ended December 31, 2009 was $750,000 versus
$764,000 reported for 2008.
Income tax benefit recognized for the year ended December 31, 2009 was
$598,000 versus $374,000 reported for 2008.
Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $697,000, or $.23
per share versus $937,000, or $.31 per share, reported for 2008.
The Company and certain subsidiaries previously participated in the
waste recovery and waste management industries. The Company continues to
incur administrative and legal expenses on matters related to its past
participation in those industries, and has been named as a potentially
responsible party for the remediation of four sites. The Company has
reported significant operating loses in each of the last five years, and it
is anticipated that such operating losses will continue as the Company's
expenses exceed revenue from its operations in the near term. The Company
may also incur significant remediation and landfill post-closure
maintenance costs in excess of amounts accrued. The Company therefore is
unable to determine whether the timing and amount of cash generated from
its efforts to enhance its liquidity, through the sale of real property and
otherwise, and from the Company's remaining operations will be adequate to
satisfy its future cash requirements. These conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Presented below are the audited consolidated balance sheet of the
Company as of December 31, 2009 and comparative consolidated statements of
operations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
