Financial Results

Revenues

Xebec posted revenues of $5.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, a 113.2% increase compared to $2.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012, the total revenues amounted to $15.2 million, a 6.9% increase compared to $14.2 million for the same period last year. The improvement versus the same period last year is mostly explained by the significant progress on gas purification projects.

Order Backlog

As of April 1, 2013, total order backlog stood at $8.5 million, compared to $11.1 million as of March 30, 2012.

Gross Margin

Xebec's gross margin for the fourth quarter of 2012 amounted to $1.2 million, compared to $0.1 million for the same 2011 period. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012, the total gross margin amounted to $3.2 million, compared to $4.2 million for the same period last year. Despite increasing margins from product sales, the non recurring engineering contracts and license revenues prior to the IP transaction of March 22, 2012 inflated the margins positively in 2011.

EBITDA and Net Income (Loss)

The EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2012 amounted to $0.2 million compared to $(1.6) million in the fourth quarter of 2011. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012, the EBITDA amounted to $3.4 million, compared to $0.1 million for the same period last year. The improved EBITDA is the result of our continuous efforts to improve gross margin and control costs and the gain resulting from the IP transaction.

The net loss for the fourth quarter of 2012 totaled $0.1 million, or nil per share, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million, or $0.02 per share for the same 2011 period. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012, net income was $1.9 million or $0.04 per share, compared to net loss of $1.5 million or $0.04 per share for the same period last year, reflecting primarily a $4.2 million increase in gain on disposition of assets and a $0.3 million decrease in selling and administrative costs and $0.4 million decrease in research and development.

Selling and administrative expenses were $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $2.0 million for the same period last year. For the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2012, selling and administrative were $6.5 million, compared to $6.8 million for the same period last year. The decrease in expenses is the results of the cost control measures.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company's cash on hand before restricted cash totaled $1.3 million, compared to $0.4 million as at December 31, 2011.
