Carbon Revolution Announces Record Revenue Results for Fiscal 2024
Carbon Revolution (CREV) reported record financial results for fiscal 2024, with revenue reaching US$47.3 million, marking an 87% increase year-over-year. The growth was primarily driven by full production of the Range Rover Sport SV program and increased shipments for the Corvette Z06/E-Ray program.
However, the company posted a significant loss after income tax of US$146.4 million, compared to US$52.5 million in the previous year, including US$20.9 million in transaction costs and a US$68.0 million asset impairment charge. The company completed initial commissioning of its Mega-line, strengthened leadership with key appointments including Donald Hampton, Jr. as CEO, and launched programs with prestigious automotive brands like Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and Lamborghini Temerario.

The company's losses have substantially widened to
The completion of the Mega-line commissioning marks a crucial operational milestone that should enhance manufacturing efficiency and capacity. However, this capacity expansion has clearly strained finances in the short term. Management's comment about "concluding" spending on capacity expansion and their recent cost-cutting measures indicates they're shifting focus from growth to operational sustainability.
The high-profile executive appointments and board changes, including Robert Lutz as Chair, signal the company is bringing in experienced leadership to navigate this challenging transition period. The mention of "moving toward profitability" from their Australian plant suggests they're still not profitable despite the revenue growth, with the path to positive earnings remaining a significant hurdle despite operational progress.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Operating Metrics
In addition to results determined in accordance with IFRS, management utilizes certain non-IFRS financial measures such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not financial measures as defined by IFRS. Non-IFRS measures have certain limitations and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results of operations as reported under IFRS. The Company believes non-IFRS measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Company’s management believes that the use of non-IFRS financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projected operating results and trends in and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-IFRS/GAAP financial measures to investors. These measures should not be used instead of, or considered as alternatives to, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies.

Reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net loss for the year |
EBITDA differs from the most comparable IFRS measure, net loss for the year, primarily because it does not include interest expense and interest income, income taxes, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, and amortization of intangible assets. Adjusted EBITDA adjusts EBITDA for capital raising transaction costs, share-based payment expenses, impairment of assets, loss on modification, loss on extinguishment, supplier financing costs, realized foreign exchange loss, gain on remeasurement of warrant liabilities and unrealized foreign exchange gain. The table below provides the buildup of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA described in the Financial Highlights table above.
