"For the full year 2024, we achieved revenue of $23 million, marking a 48% year-over-year increase. Modified EBITDA improved from a loss last year to $3.5 million. My sincere congratulations and gratitude to the men and women of KOIL Energy. This is nothing short of a remarkable turnaround.”

Financial Highlights:

Q4 revenue of $6 million and EBITDA of $1 million, resulting in a 16% margin. This is a 48% increase in revenue and $1.6 million higher Modified EBITDA compared to the previous year.

Gross margin at 40%, consistent with the previous two quarters. SG&A increased slightly to $1.7 million in the quarter, reflecting increased staffing.

Net income at $537,000, marking a substantial improvement from the net loss of $890,000 recorded in Q4 of 2023. This positive shift in earnings was primarily driven by increased gross profit from fixed-price project activity.

Full year 2024 revenue of $23 million, marking a 48% year-over-year increase driven by a doubling of fixed-price projects.

The gross margin for the full year was 38%, up from 32% in 2023. SG&A expenses were $6.2 million, compared to $6.5 million the previous year. Increasing revenue and reducing costs resulted in a net income of $2.6 million, a substantial improvement from the net loss of $1.6 million in 2023.

Modified EBITDA improved from a loss in 2023 to $3.5 million in 2024.

This turnaround in earnings led to an improvement in diluted earnings per share, rising to $0.21 compared to a loss of $0.13 per share the previous year.

Working capital at $5.7 million as of December 31, 2024, including $3.4 million in cash. This compares favorably to $2.6 million in working capital as of December 31, 2023, which included $2 million in cash.

Key accomplishments in 2024:

	·	Won a significant contract to deliver subsea distribution equipment
	·	Awarded a significant contract for advanced maintenance services
	·	Won a significant order to provide Bend Stiffener Latchers (BSL®)
	·	Awarded a major scope of work for a subsea safety control system.

KOIL Energy is one year into an ambitious three-year strategy focused on achieving continued profitable revenue growth. You can view a copy of our growth roadmap in the investor presentation on our webpage. The growth strategy continues to push KOIL Energy’s business performance domestically. International activities have progressed well ahead of the original growth plan. To strengthen our presence in South America, KOIL Energy has expanded into Brazil with a new manufacturing and service support facility in Macaé. KOIL Energy has also established a strategic alliance with SubseaDesign AS, a Norway-based company, to accelerate advancements in subsea technology.

We offer mission-critical deepwater solutions with high barriers to market entry. Management believes that KOIL Energy is positioned to achieve growth and currently without long-term debt.
