Second Quarter 2014 Highlights:
-- Expanded quarterly revenues to $13.8 million from $4.3 million in the
prior year period; revenue expansion driven by strong continued demand
for the Company's distributed class turbines.
-- Reduced quarterly net loss to $2.2 million from $2.8 million in the
prior year period, and quarterly non-GAAP EBITDA loss to $1.3 million
from $3.0 million in the prior year quarter; driven by sales into higher
wind regimes and production cost control.
-- Completed prototype of next generation distributed class turbine which
will offer improved performance and economic returns.
-- Concluded capital raise of $22.3 million in April, supporting strategic
plans for global expansion in sales of Northern Power's offerings.
Northern Power Systems Corp. (TSX: NPS), a next generation renewable energy
technology company, today announced financial results for its three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2014.
"Our second quarter financial results demonstrated continued strong
year-over-year revenue growth. With our next generation distributed turbine
ready for the market and our capital raise concluded, we are planning our
targeted expansion strategy to enter new regions and market sectors," said Troy
Patton, president and chief executive officer. "We also continue to be very
pleased with the scope of our strategic partnership with WEG Industries. WEG's
production and delivery of 2MW turbines leveraging our licensed technology
platform continues on pace to fill its current Brazilian orders of greater than
150 MW. The 3.3MW turbine now under development supported by Northern Power
should add to a strong portfolio of offerings for WEG's commercialization of our
permanent magnet/direct drive technology in this rapidly expanding market."
"Our significant reductions in quarterly net loss and non-GAAP EBITDA loss, at
22 percent and 58 percent year-over-year, respectively, are demonstrating our
path toward break-even," commented Ciel Caldwell, chief financial officer. "We
are optimistic in our continued progress of tracking to profitability."
Consolidated Financial Metrics:
-- Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal year 2014 grew to $13.8
million, a 220 percent increase over revenue of $4.3 million reported in
the prior year period.
-- Order backlog at June 30, 2014 was $41 million, a 21 percent increase
over backlog of $34 million at June 30, 2013.
-- Gross margin (revenue minus the cost of revenue as a percent of total
revenue) in the second quarter was 16 percent, up from a gross margin
loss of 1 percent in the prior year period.
-- GAAP net loss for the second quarter was $2.2 million, representing a 22
percent decrease compared to a $2.8 million loss in the prior year
period.
-- Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA loss for the second quarter was $1.3 million,
representing a 58 percent decrease compared to a non-GAAP adjusted
EBITDA loss of $3.0 million, in the prior year period.
-- Cash used in operations in the second quarter was $6.9 million,
representing a 244 percent increase compared to a $2.0 million usage of
cash for operations in the prior year period.
-- Debt at June 30, 2014 was $0 as compared to $12.5 million at December
31, 2013.

About non-GAAP financial measures
To supplement Northern Power Systems' consolidated financial statements
presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP), Northern Power Systems has used a non-GAAP financial measure,
specifically non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as
net income/(loss), excluding share-based compensation expense, amortization of
acquisition-related intangibles, depreciation of property, plant and equipment,
interest expense, tax charges, and certain other non-cash charges, as
applicable.
The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information
prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. For more information on non-GAAP
adjusted EBITDA, please see the table captioned "Reconciliation of GAAP net loss
to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA net loss" included at the end of this release. The
table has more details on the GAAP financial measure that is most directly
comparable to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA and the related reconciliation between
these financial measures.
Northern Power Systems' management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure
provides meaningful supplemental information in assessing our performance and
liquidity by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our recurring
core business operating results, which could be non-cash charges or discrete
cash charges that are infrequent in nature. This non-GAAP financial measure also
has facilitated management's internal comparisons to Northern Power Systems'
historical performance and our competitors' operating results, as well as
reflects measurements which are used by creditors and other third parties in
assessing our performance.
