Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $12.8 million as compared to $15.5 million generated during the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in revenue during 2014 as compared to 2013 was due to a decrease in event-driven engineering services revenue, the amount of corn oil produced and the royalties paid by our licensees, and commodity price fluctuation. Revenue in future periods will remain subject to variance in connection with a number of factors, including the rate at which our licensees commence production, the amount of corn oil that our licensees produce, the market price for that corn oil, the extent to which we collect reasonable royalties, and the degree to which we provide event-driven systems integration services to our licensees involving the design, construction, integration and modification of licensed technologies.

Costs of sales for the year ended December 31, 2014 decreased to $4.6 million from about $6.8 million during 2013. We generated $8.2 million in gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. We expect to achieve increased economies of scale with respect to our costs of sales and gross profit as all of our existing and new licensees commence and achieve full production and as we execute new licenses for our corn oil extraction and other technologies.
