FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER, 2007 FINANCIAL RESULTS

VICTORIA, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Nov. 14, 2007 – FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC. (AMEX: FSI, FRANKFURT: FXT), a developer and manufacturer of biodegradable and environmentally safe, water and energy conservation technology, as well as anti-scalant and crop nutrient enhancement products, today announces financial results for the Third quarter (Q3) ended Sept. 30, 2007.

Mr. Daniel B. O’Brien, CEO, states, “Under difficult conditions we are extremely pleased with this quarter for FSI. The result is a significantly smaller loss than Q3, 2006. The lower than expected sales was a result of multiple maintenance shutdowns in the oil extraction industry which did not occur in 2006. As a result, sales from the NanoChem Division were higher than normal in Q3, ‘06 and lower than normal in Q3, ‘07.”

 

  • Sales in the third quarter (Q3), were $1,297,425, down significantly when compared to sales of $1,913,958, in the corresponding period a year ago. The result was a GAAP accounting net loss of $305,962, or $0.02 per basic weighted average shares for Q3, 2007 compared with a higher net loss of $502,449, or $0.04, in Q3, 2006.
  • Basic weighted average shares used in computing per share amounts for the quarters were 14,157,467 for 2007 and 12,987,799 for 2006.
  • Non-GAAP operating cash flow:  For the 9 months ending Sept. 30, 2007 net income reflects $806,189 of non-cash charges (depreciation and stock option expenses), and when non-cash charges are removed, the Company shows positive operating cash flow of $405,534 or $0.03 per share. This compares with operating cash flow of $324,426, or $0.02 per share, in the corresponding 9 months of 2006 (the 2006 cash flow number excludes Income tax recovery, an amount not related to 2006 operations, as given in the following table).

Heatsavr sales continue to grow at a strong rate as a result of not only higher energy costs but also higher water costs. Heatsavr reduces energy costs by reducing evaporation of warm pool water. As a result of sales growth the Heatsavr brand is gaining end user recognition.

 

Sales of WaterSavr grew substantially in 2006 and 2007 and significant new opportunities for sales from around the world are the result of the product’s success.

 

The NanoChem division continues to contribute substantially to sales and cash flow and, new opportunities are unfolding to further increase sales in this division. NanoChem sales are generally less seasonal than those of our WaterSavr and Flexible Solutions Ltd divisions. This has lead to less volatility in total revenue figures quarter over quarter. However, in the short term Q3 may be more volatile than the rest of the year. This is due to current high oil profits which are affecting oil production shutdowns.
