SCI Engineered Materials, Inc. ("SCI") (OTCQB: SCIA), a global supplier and manufacturer of advanced materials for PVD thin film applications that works closely with end users and OEMs to develop innovative, customized solutions, today reported its financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Dan Rooney, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "SCI is in its best position in more than a decade to benefit from recent investments to increase our manufacturing capabilities and strengthen the company's presence in multiple markets. However, an inventory adjustment by a major customer combined with ongoing volatility in the solar market contributed to a decrease in total revenue compared to the same period last year and a loss for the quarter. We are responding to these short-term challenges by tightly controlling operating expenses and maintaining close contact with our customers. Our business strategy is sound and we will continue to utilize our core strengths to pursue attractive long-term growth opportunities."

Total revenue

Total revenue was $1,433,602 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared with $1,883,032 for the same period last year. Contract research revenue of $63,732 for the first quarter 2013 was similar to the same period last year.

Backlog was $1.6 million at March 31, 2013 versus $1.8 million at December 31, 2012 and $2.9 million on the same date a year ago. Backlog was impacted by the timing of blanket orders placed by customers and lower backlog related to contract research compared to the same date in 2012.

Gross profit

First quarter 2013 gross profit declined to $173,599 from $315,145 a year ago due to lower revenue and increased pricing pressure. As a result, gross profit margin declined to 12.1% for the first quarter 2013 from 16.7% for the same period last year.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses, which include marketing and sales, general and administrative, and R&D, declined 5.3% to $464,654 for the first quarter 2013. Lower R&D and marketing and sales expenses were partially offset by slightly higher general and administrative expense attributable to higher professional fees compared to a year ago.

Loss Applicable to Common Stock

Loss applicable to common stock was $267,594, or $0.07 per share, for the first quarter 2013 compared with loss applicable to common shares of $195,801, or $0.05 per share, for the same period last year. The year-over-year comparison was primarily impacted by the decline in gross profit versus the same period last year.

EBITDA

First quarter 2013 EBITDA (Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) was negative $89,953 compared with negative EBITDA of $30,962 for the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes non-cash stock based compensation, was negative $54,518 for the first quarter 2013 versus adjusted EBITDA of $4,134 a year ago.
