Jim Nelson, Sunworks' Chief Executive Officer commented, "I am proud of much of what we accomplished at Sunworks in 2016. Year over year revenue growth of 61% significantly outpaces the industry growth rate. In addition, we broadened our addressable market primarily for commercial and agriculture opportunities and have expanded into more target-rich regions -- all with the goal of continuing our rapid growth. The success of our efforts is reflected not only in the top-line growth, but also in the all-time record backlog that we bring into 2017. All of these factors lead us to be optimistic about the future."
Mr. Nelson continued, "The significant growth and aggressive investment in our initiatives challenged our organization, particularly in the second half of the year. We experienced growing pains with some of our internal processes in attempting to keep pace with the rapid acceleration of the front-end of the business. The rainy weather during our normally busy fourth quarter negatively impacted our revenue and put downward pressure on our financial results. These factors, among others created an unexpected operating loss in the fourth quarter. Some of these losses, as explained in our 10-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, were non-cash adjustments that we do not expect to reoccur in 2017. In addition, we have made and are making changes to improve our back-office processes, strengthened our team, and streamline and focused our investment initiatives. We will continue to make adjustments and improve our business to ensure that we leverage our fast-growing sales into faster growing cash and profitability."
2017 Guidance
- Management expects full year 2017 revenue to increase more than 30% versus 2016 and anticipates Sunworks will be profitable for the full year.
- Management expects backlog at the end of Q1 2017 to increase versus both the prior year Q1 2016 backlog and the prior quarter backlog -- providing additional optimism for continued growth.
