Hoku Scientific reports $1.2M loss

Hoku Scientific continues to struggle financially, reporting a net loss for the second quarter of its fiscal 2010. The Honolulu-based company, which announced last month it was being taken over by a Chinese conglomerate, reported Thursday a net loss of $1.2 million, or 6 cents per share, for the second quarter. That compared to a net loss of $1.4 million, or 7 cents per share, during the same period last year. Revenue for the quarter was $1.5 million, down from $1.9 million a year ago. The company said the money primarily came from photovoltaic system installation and related service contracts. The company also offered an update on its business, noting it needs $71 million in additional funding to complete the construction of its polysilicon production plant in Pocatello, Idaho. “With the recent announcement of our financing agreement with Tianwei, we have successfully identified sufficient funding to complete construction of our polysilicon manufacturing plant in Pocatello, Idaho, to the point where we can commence our first shipments to our customers,” chairman, president and CEO Dustin Shindo said in a statement. The company (Nasdaq: HOKU) announced in late September that Chinese energy company Tianwei New Energy Holdings would use $79 million in prepayments to be converted into $50 million worth of Hoku stock, as well as giving a loan of $50 million to Hoku. The agreement is expected to close later this month. The company said it expects to complete the remaining financing through a combination of prepayments from new customers, through other debt sources, or possibly through U.S. government loan guarantees and other renewable energy incentive programs. “I...
