374Water Releases First Quarter 2024 Results and Provides Business Update

  • New CEO Chris Gannon unveils Product Development, Commercialization and Go-to-Market Objectives

DURHAM, NC / ACCESSWIRE / May 15, 2024 / 374Water Inc. (NASDAQ:SCWO), a global leader in cutting-edge, sustainable waste management technologies, today provides a business update and reports its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

"In just under a month, we have hit the ground running developing a strategic plan to unlock the value inherent in this enterprise. I have immersed myself in our technology and our market opportunities to chart the best path forward in our product development, commercialization, and go-to-market approach," said Chris Gannon, CEO of 374Water. "We have a massive opportunity in front of us to take advantage of regulatory tailwinds driving demand for technologies like our AirSCWO system. Over the ensuing months, we will provide more detail and clarity on our go forward strategy, with a focus on four key areas: (1) executing on our municipal biosolid/sludge and federal/DOD contractual obligations which is an important proof point; (2) expanding the application of our AirSCWO systems to industrial and other waste streams; (3) securing new manufacturing and engineering facilities; and (4) expanding our compliment of talented engineers and field personnel, as well as our leadership team."

Financial Highlights

  • For the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company generated revenue of $315,000 which compares to $801,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2023, a 61% decrease.
    • Our revenue is primarily based on progress toward completion of our sold unit and also includes the sale of treatability services. Costs associated with our sold unit have started to decline as we reach the end of our fabrication and testing, which have had a direct correlation to the reduced revenue recognized this year. This has had a direct impact on our change in revenue year-over-year.
  • Total Operating Expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, increased marginally to $1.9 million from $1.8 million in the prior year quarter driven primarily by an increase in R&D expense.

Capital Structure

  • As of March 31, 2024, the Company had working capital of $11.7 million. We are actively working on optimizing our operational efficiencies and exploring new market opportunities, all aimed at long-term value creation while remaining steadfast in our commitment to innovation and excellence. A primary financial goal for the Company is to extend its runway while scaling the business.

Business Highlights

  • On April 23, 2024 the Company announced the appointment of Chris Gannon as its new President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Gannon brings deep executive leadership experience in multiple disciplines and industries, including environmental technology development, highly engineered product, advanced manufacturing, and global customer support and service with customers in the municipal, industrial, commercial, defense, and medical spaces.
  • In March 2024, the Company announced a new contract with the City of Orlando, highlighted by the deployment of an AirSCWO 6 service unit, which will be integrated into Orlando's Iron Bridge Water Pollution Control Facility. This AirSCWO 6 unit is expected to deploy in 2024.
  • 374Water continued its progress on an expected 2024 deployment to Orange County Sanitation District. The Company is underway with factory acceptance testing and once achieved, will begin mobilizing the unit to Orange County.
  • The Company continues to focus on executing demonstrations and securing demonstration partners within the municipal biosolids, federal and military PFAS, and industrial markets.
  • The Company is in active discussions with major TSDF operators to not only serve as technology development and commercialization partners, focused initially on PFAS intensive waste streams, but also serve as long-term waste destruction partners. The Company places a priority these partnerships as we continue to scale our commercial grade technology to meet growing demand for AirSCWO technology.
