Insights

Financial Analyst

Sky Quarry posted Q2 revenue growth but continues operating at a loss while pursuing multiple strategic initiatives to scale operations.

Sky Quarry's Q2 results present a mixed financial picture with some encouraging signals amid ongoing challenges. The company achieved $4.54 million in quarterly revenue, marking a 35% year-over-year increase, primarily attributed to regained supply volumes and operational improvements. However, this quarterly gain is overshadowed by the 24% decline in six-month revenue compared to 2024.

The gross profit situation shows incremental improvement in Q2, with losses narrowing to $117,529 from $485,589 in Q2 2024. Yet, the six-month gross profit swung from a small profit last year to a $843,060 loss. This deterioration in half-year performance suggests the company continues facing significant production cost challenges despite the quarterly improvements.

Operating expenses increased substantially to $1.62 million for the quarter, up 67% from last year, likely reflecting investments in growth initiatives including the planned Foreland Refinery capacity expansion and the integrated energy facility development. The bottom line shows a quarterly net loss of $2.21 million, an improvement from the $3.56 million loss in Q2 2024.

Perhaps most notable is the significant improvement in cash burn, with net cash used in operating activities reduced to $0.73 million for the six-month period, down 72% from $2.60 million in 2024. This substantial reduction in cash outflow is critical for a company still operating at a loss.

The strategic initiatives—particularly the planned ramp-up at Foreland Refinery to 800,000 barrels per year and the integrated supply chain development through waste asphalt shingle recycling—represent meaningful attempts to achieve operational scale and sustainability. The digital asset initiative, while potentially innovative for commodity markets, adds complexity and uncertainty to an already challenging turnaround effort.
