LOOP
INDUSTRIES REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2021 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
RESULTS
MONTREAL, January 14, 2021 (ACCESSWIRE)—Loop
Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: LOOP) (the “Company” or
“Loop Industries”), a leading sustainable
plastics technology innovator, today announced its
consolidated financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal
year ending February 28, 2021 and provided an update on its
continuing progress in implementing its business plan.
Highlights
●
Initiated the work
with SUEZ on European Infinite LoopTM
project.
●
Initiated
conversion of the Company’s Pilot Plant to a demonstration
and training facility in support of Infinite LoopTM
commercialization.
●
Independent
verification report published attesting to the capacity of our
technology to produce DMT and MEG monomers within our purity
specifications.
●
Received
confirmation of registration for our DMT and MEG monomers for
Europe.
In the
quarter, we continued to focus on the completion of the engineering
of the Infinite LoopTM
manufacturing process, including the integration of our
depolymerization process with INVISTA’s polymerization know
how, with the assistance of Worley Group, a leading global
engineering, procurement and construction company, and Chemtex
Global Corporation.
We also
initiated work in the quarter on our planned European facility with
Suez, a world leader in environmental services. To support this
project and the Company’s European business activities, the
Company has hired Laurent Auguste, a former senior executive of
Veolia, in an advisory capacity.
In
connection with our agreements with SUEZ and Chemtex, and more
broadly with the commercialization activities of future Infinite
LoopTM
manufacturing facilities, we have decided to convert our pilot
plant to an Infinite LoopTM
demonstration and training facility in support of the
commercialization of our technology. The demonstration facility
will be used to showcase the Infinite LoopTM
technology to potential partners and customers, and train
operational teams in advance of the commissioning of commercial
plants. We made investments of $2,325,540 for this project during
the three months ended November 30, and we expect this project to
be largely completed by third quarter of calendar 2021. In
addition, subsequent to the quarter, we have also entered into an
agreement to acquire PET polymerization equipment from Chemtex to
manufacture limited quantities of Loop™ branded PET resin at
our demonstration plant and have the capability to supply product
to select customers.
During
the quarter, we commissioned Kemitek, a College Centre for
Technology Transfer specialized in the fields of green chemistry
and chemical process scale-up, to validate that our technology at
mini-pilot and pilot scale can produce primary building blocks, or
monomers: DMT and MEG. Their report concluded that the quality of
the monomers meets Loop Industries’ specifications for the
production of PET resin and polyester fiber.
In
addition, we recently received a confirmation of registration for
our DMT, and MEG monomers from the European Chemicals Agency
confirming that our monomers are of a purity equal to what is
currently recognized within Europe and entitling us to manufacture
and import the monomers into Europe for use as food contact
materials.This confirmation comes in addition to our previously
disclosed a legal opinion confirming that our depolymerization
technology meets U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(“FDA”) requirements to produce suitably pure DMT and
MEG for use in food-grade packaging.
Our
joint venture with Indorama decided over the summer that due to the
COVID-19 situation it would temporarily delay work on the
Spartanburg project. During the quarter continued COVID-related
travel restrictions and quarantine requirements between Canada and
the U.S. continued to cause disruptions in our timetable. The joint
venture plans to resume certain activities in the first quarter of
calendar 2021.
The
Company is in the planning phase for an Infinite LoopTM
manufacturing facility in the province of Québec. As part of
this process, subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company
signed a purchase option to acquire approximately 2,000,000 square
feet of land in Bécancour, Québec.

Third Quarter Ended November 30, 2020
The net
loss for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 increased
$10.32 million to $14.17 million, as compared to the net loss for
the three-month period ended November 30, 2019 which was $3.85
million. The increase of $10.32 million is primarily
attributable to higher research and development expenses of $5.00
million, the write-down and impairment of machinery and equipment
of $5.03 million, higher general and administrative expenses of
$0.90 million, lower interest income of $0.15 million, and an
increase in foreign exchange loss of $0.09 million, offset by lower
interest and other financial (income) expenses of $0.73 million and
lower depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.12
million.
Research
and development expenses for the three-month period ended November
30, 2020 amounted to $6.27 million compared to $1.28 million for
the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, an increase of
$5.00 million, or $4.96 million excluding stock-based compensation.
The increase of $4.96 million was primarily attributable to higher
purchases of non-capitalizable research and development machinery
and equipment of $2.33 million, higher engineering fees of $2.19
million due to external engineering costs for our Infinite
LoopTM
manufacturing process, higher employee compensation expenses of
$0.20 million, higher pilot plant and laboratory consumables and
maintenance expenses of $0.19 million, and by lower research and
development tax credits of $0.10 million.
General
and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended
November 30, 2020 amounted to $2.72 million compared to $1.83
million for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, an
increase of $0.90 million, or $0.92 million excluding stock-based
compensation. The increase of $0.92 million was mainly attributable
to higher legal and professional fees of $0.84 million due to costs
principally associated with the ongoing SEC investigation disclosed
in our 8-K filed on October 16, 2020 and securities class action
suits, and higher insurance expenses of $0.31, offset by lower
employee compensation costs of $0.23 million.
Depreciation
and amortization expenses for the three-month period ended November
30, 2020 totaled $0.10 million compared to $0.22 million for the
three-month period ended November 30, 2019, a decrease of $0.12
million. This decrease is mainly attributable to the write-down of
machinery and equipment assets.
A
write-down and impairment of machinery and equipment for the
three-month period ended November 30, 2020 totaled $5.03 million
compared to nil for the three-month period ended November 30,
2019.
The
machinery and equipment will continue to be utilized at our
demonstration and training facility as it is an integral part of
supporting the commercialization of our technology. However, the
decision to dedicate the demonstration and training facility to
research and development activities requires them to be written off
and all future costs associated with the demonstration and training
facility will be recognized as a research and development expense
in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss
in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development
Costs.
Interest
and other financial (income) expenses for the three-month period
ended November 30, 2020 totaled $(0.04) million compared to $0.69
million the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, a decrease
of $0.73 million. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease
in accretion expense of $0.56 million, a decrease in interest
expense on convertible notes of $0.09 million and by an increase in
gain on revaluation of foreign exchange contracts of $0.08
million.

The net
loss for the nine-month period ended November 30, 2020 increased by
$12.40 million to $23.15 million, as compared to the net loss for
the nine-month period ended November 30, 2019 of $10.75
million. The increase of $12.40 million is primarily due to
higher research and development expenses of $7.26 million, the
write-down and impairment of machinery and equipment of $5.02
million, higher general and administrative expenses of $1.28
million, lower interest income of $0.29 million, higher foreign
exchange loss of $0.26 million and higher depreciation and
amortization expenses of $0.33 million, offset by a decrease in
interest and other financial (income) expenses of $1.79
million.
Research
and development expenses for the nine-month period ended November
30, 2020 amounted to $10.50 million compared to $3.25 million for
the nine-month period ended November 30, 2019, an increase of $7.26
million, and $7.14 million excluding stock-based compensation. The
increase of $7.14 million was primarily attributable to higher
engineering fees of $3.16 million due to external engineering costs
for our Infinite LoopTM
manufacturing process, higher purchases of non-capitalizable
research and development machinery and equipment of $2.33 million,
higher employee compensation expenses of $0.53 million, higher
plant and laboratory consumables and maintenance expenses of $0.50
million, and by lower research and development tax credits of $0.32
million which was partially offset by a COVID-19-related government
wage subsidy of $0.19 million. The increase in non-cash stock-based
compensation expense of $0.11 million is mainly attributable to the
timing of stock awards provided to certain employees.
General
and administrative expenses for the nine-month period ended
November 30, 2020 amounted to $6.73 million compared to $5.45
million for the nine-month period ended November 30, 2019, an
increase of $1.28 million, or $1.23 million excluding stock-based
compensation. The increase of $1.23 million was mainly attributable
to higher insurance expenses of $1.04 million, and higher legal and
professional fees of $0.89 million due to costs principally
associated with the ongoing SEC investigation disclosed in our 8-K
filed on October 16, 2020 and securities class action suits, offset
by lower employee compensation costs of $0.55 million. During the nine-month period ended
November 30, 2020, the Company recorded a COVID-19-related
government wage subsidy of $0.06 million in general and
administrative expenses. Stock-based compensation expense for the
nine-month period ended November 30, 2020 amounted to $1.72 million
compared to $1.67 million for the nine-month period ended November
30, 2019, representing an increase of $0.05 million, which was
mainly attributable lower stock awards provided to
executives.
Depreciation
and amortization expenses for the nine-month period ended November
30, 2020 totaled $0.65 million compared to $0.56 million for the
nine-month period ended November 30, 2019, an increase of $0.09
million. This increase is mainly attributable to the investment in
fixed assets at the Company’s pilot plant and corporate
offices.
A
write-down and impairment of machinery and equipment for the
nine-month period ended November 30, 2020 totaled $5.04 million
compared to $0.02 million for the nine-month period ended November
30, 2019, an increase of $5.02 million.
The
machinery and equipment will continue to be utilized at our
demonstration and training facility as it is an integral part of
supporting the commercialization of our technology. However, the
decision to dedicate the demonstration and training facility to
research and development activities requires them to be written off
and all future costs associated with the demonstration and training
facility will be recognized as a research and development expense
in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss
in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development
Costs.
Interest
and other financial (income) expenses for the nine-month period
ended November 30, 2020 totaled $0.03 million compared to $1.82
million the nine-month period ended November 30, 2019, representing
a decrease of $1.80 million. The decrease is mainly attributable to
a decrease in accretion expense of $1.64 million and a decrease in
interest expense on convertible notes of $0.30 million offset by a
decrease in gain on conversion of convertible notes of $0.08
million.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
During
the nine months ended November 30, 2020, we used $14.54 million in
operations compared to $6.82 million during the nine months ended
November 30, 2019. The increase in cash used in operations of $7.08
million is mainly attributable to higher external engineering costs
paid of $2.47 million for our Infinite LoopTM

About Loop Industries
Loop
Industries is a technology company whose mission is to accelerate
the world's shift toward sustainable PET plastic and polyester
fiber and away from our dependence on fossil fuels. Loop owns
patented and proprietary low-energy technology that depolymerizes
no and low-value waste PET plastic and polyester fiber, including
plastic bottles and packaging, carpets and textiles of any color,
transparency or condition and even ocean plastics that have been
degraded by the sun and saltwater, into its base building blocks
(monomers). The monomers are filtered, purified and polymerized to
create virgin-quality Loop™ branded PET resin and polyester
fiber suitable for use in food-grade packaging, thus enabling our
customers to meet their sustainability objectives. Loop Industries
is contributing to the global movement toward a circular economy by
preventing plastic waste and recovering waste plastic for a more
sustainable future for all.
Common
shares of the Company are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under
the symbol “LOOP.”
