Platte River must prepare for the retirement of 431 megawatts (MW) of dispatchable, coal-fired generation by the end of the decade and address more frequent extreme weather events that can bring dark calms (periods when there is no sun or wind).
For the just-ended fiscal year, the company posted net revenue of $9.336 million and a net loss of $880,000 or 8 cents per share. These results compare with net revenue of $9.671 million and a net loss of $1.383 million, or $ 13 cents per share, in the same quarter a year ago.
“Continued improvements by our manufacturing operations are narrowing the gap on losses as we drive to profitability,” said Greg Trudel, Encision’s president and chief executive, in a statement that accompanied the earnings report. “Our gross margins progressively improved throughout FY16 despite reduced volumes. We have eliminated legacy inventories of obsolete and slow moving products and are in a position for a promising FY17.”
