Nesscap Energy Inc. Reports Record First Quarter Results for Ultracapacitor Products

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA--(Marketwired - May 28, 2014) - Nesscap Energy Inc. ("Nesscap") (TSX VENTURE:NCE), a global leader in research, development and manufacturing of ultracapacitor products, reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2014.

Revenue for the three-month period increased 66%, to US $5.3 million, compared to $3.2 million in the same period last year. The increase in revenue is due to stronger demand from new and existing customers. Gross profit margin for the quarter improved to 22% compared to 11% in the same quarter last year and 21% for fiscal 2013.

Net loss for the quarter was $0.1 million or $0.001 per share compared to a net loss of $0.6 million or $0.003 per share in the same period in fiscal 2013. The improvement in net loss was mainly due to increased sales volumes combined with reduced unit production costs.

At March 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents equal to $3.7 million and working capital of $15.9 million.

"Our success in the first quarter was driven by a combination of strong market demand and improved efficiencies in our factory," said Jim Zuidema, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Nesscap. "Demand for Nesscap's products has strengthened over the past few quarters and, as a result, we see an increasing need to invest in production capacity and technology development to expand our share of the growing market for alternative energy-storage solutions."

The Company recently announced that it has engaged Marathon Capital, LLC as exclusive advisor, in connection with a proposed equity financing, and that I2BF Energy Limited and Arbat Capital Group Ltd. have agreed to participate as lead investors, with a minimum subscription amount of US $10 million.
