(NASDAQ:THTI, “the Company”, or “THT”), a leading provider of heat exchangers and heat exchange solutions in China’s clean technology industry, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.

Comment from Guohong Zhao, Chairman and CEO

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Guohong Zhao commented, “Due to effective internal measures of corporate governance and efficient cost control management in the whole process of the construction, our revenue obtained a stable growth during the third quarter 2014. Meanwhile, our sales revenue from heat exchange units, benefit from the continuous process of urbanization and the strengthened air pollution control in China, increased over 57%.

“Looking forward to the fourth quarter of 2014, we expect a sluggish demand in metallurgical industry and petroleum chemical industry, however, to put a downward pressure on our profits. We will remain focused on our high technology and high value added products, as well as spare parts and repair services as a response, and we believe these efforts will position us well for future growth in the long term.

Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

Revenue

Sales revenue for the third quarter of 2014 was US$15.9 million, a 15.9% increase from US$13.8 million during the same period of 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to higher sales revenue from heat exchange units and air coolers. Sales volume of heat exchange products totaled 947 units in the third quarter of 2014, an increase of 526 units from 421 units in the same period of 2013. The increase was due to increased demand for our products in consequence of more projects and economic recovery of China in the third quarter of 2014 compared with previous years.

1


For the third quarter of 2014, sales revenue from heat exchange units was US$8.2 million, an increase of 57.6% compared with US$5.2 million in the same period of 2013. Sales revenue from plate heat exchangers was US$4.9 million, a decrease of 9.8% compared to the same period of 2013. During the third quarter of 2014, sales revenue from air-cooled heat exchangers, shell-and-tube heat exchangers and others totaled US$2.8 million, a decrease of 9.7% as compared to the same period of 2013.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for the third quarter of 2014 increased 9.1% to US$10.4 million from US$9.5 million in the third quarter 2013. The increase was mainly in line with the increase in the Company’s sales revenue.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit increased 31.0% to US$5.6 million during the third quarter of 2014, from US$4.3 million in the same period of 2013, mainly due to the increased sales revenue from heat change units, air coolers and others. Gross margin was 35.1% for the third quarter of 2014, as compared with 31.0% during the same period of 2013. The increase in gross margin was mainly attributable to a substantial increase of sales volume and a decrease in the Company’s labor costs and raw material costs.

Operating Expenses

Administrative expenses decreased 35.3% to US$0.9 million in the third quarter 2014, from US$1.4 million for the same period of 2013. The decrease was primarily owing to the decrease of administrative expense in all categories in the third quarter of 2014.

Research and development expenses increased 53.6% year-over-year to US$0.9 million, from US$0.6 million in the third quarter 2013. The increase was primarily due to an increase in research and development of new products.

Selling expenses decreased 32.8% to US$1.1 million for the third quarter of 2014, from US$1.6 million during the same period of 2013. The decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in transportation costs.

Income before Income Tax

Income before income tax was US$2.5 million in the third quarter of 2014, an increase of 222.1% compared with US$0.8 million in the same period of 2013. The increase was mainly due to an increase in our gross profit and a decrease of total expenses.

Income Tax

Income tax was US$0.5 million in the third quarter of 2014, compared with US$0.09 million in the same period of 2013.

2


Net Income

Net income attributable to common shareholders was US$2.1 million in the third quarter of 2014, a 193.7% increase compared with US$0.7 million in the same period of 2013. The increase was due to the increase in our gross profit and the decrease of total expenses.

Basic and fully diluted net income per share was US$0.10 in the third quarter of 2014, compared with US$0.03 in the same period of 2013.

Liquidity

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of US$5.9 million and restricted cash of US$0.8 million. During the first nine months of 2014, there was a net cash outflow of US$3.2 million, compared with US$8.9 million in the same period of 2013.

Net cash provided by operating activities was US$6.9 million for the first nine months of 2014, compared with net cash used in operating activities of US$4.5 million for the same period of 2013. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was mainly attributable to (1) increased net income; (2) less payments made to acquire inventories; (3) less increase of other receivables, prepayments and deposits; and (4) less payments made for other payable and accrued expenses.

Net cash provided by investing activities was US$0.32 million for the first nine months of 2014, compared with net cash provided by investing activities of US$0.26 million for the same period of 2013.

Net cash used in financing activities was US$10.6 million for the first nine months of 2014, compared with net cash used in financing activities of US$4.3 for the same period of 2013. The increase in net cash used in financing activities resulted from less proceeds from bank loans and more repayment of long-term loans for the first nine months of 2014.

Outlook for Fourth Quarter of 2014

THT expects to generate sales revenue in the range of US$12 million to US$18 million in the third quarter of 2014, compared with US$39.3 million in the same period of 2013. This represents the Company’s preliminary view, and is subject to change.
