“Revenue recognition, which is based on percentage of work completed, held its own last year,” said Riggs Eckelberry, OriginClear CEO. “Meanwhile, sales increased more than 40% compared to 2020, with booked orders exceeding $12 million. We are very excited about the potential this represents, both this year and next.”

Quarterly Sales growth was particularly marked, increasing more than 200% from $776,100 in Q4 of 2020 to $2,340,143 in Q4 of 2021.

Annually, gross profit decreased by 7% to $569,684 compared to $611,775 for the prior year, which the Company attributed to advance purchases related to increased orders.

“The sales growth we saw in the second half of the year well exceeded expectations for an industrial water company,” said Tom Marchesello, OriginClear Chief Operating Officer. “My congratulations go to Marc Stevens, Mike Jenkins, Dan Early, and the entire team at Progressive Water Treatment and Modular Water Systems. They are doing wonders daily with a very lean organization.”

Loss from operations increased by $1,218,213 or 25.85% to $(5,929,452) compared to $(4,711,238) for prior year. The increase in losses from operations was primarily due to the increase in selling/marketing expense from $1,557,842 in the prior year to $2,841,331 in 2021. General and administrative expenses remained relatively unchanged at $3,612,988 compared to $3,602,586 for the prior year.

Net loss for 2021 was $(2,117,781), compared to a net income of $13,261,365 for 2020. The net income of $13,261,365 in year 2020 was primarily attributed to the gain recorded on net change in derivative liability of $19,359,866 as compared to the gain recorded of $5,838,830 in year 2021.
