CRYSTAL SPRINGS, FL--(Marketwired - March 31, 2014) - CES Synergies, Inc. (OTCQB: CESX) announced results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $4.4 million, an increase of 91% as compared to revenues of $2.3 million in the comparable 2012 period. Sequentially, revenues increased 29% compared to the third quarter of 2013. During the fourth quarter of 2013, remediation contributed $2.1 million to consolidated revenue and demolition contributed $2 million. Gross margin increased significantly in the fourth quarter to 27% as compared to 6% in the fourth quarter of 2012. The Company reported operating income of $151,000 as compared to an operating loss of $943,000 in the fourth quarter of last year. CES recorded net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 of $126,000 or $0.003 per basic and diluted share. 

For the year ended December 31, 2013, revenues decreased 4% to $15.5 million as compared to revenues of $16.3 million in 2012. Revenues from the Company's remediation business grew 32% to $8.0 million from $6.0 million in 2012, primarily due to an improved bidding environment, renewed government funding and increased activity around municipal and government renovation projects. Revenues from the demolition business declined 28% in 2013, to $6.8 million, related to the completion of projects with the Louisiana Land Trust. The Company achieved improved gross margin of 24% as compared to gross margin of 22% in 2012. CES reported operating income of $25,800 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to operating income of $30,900 in the previous year. 

Clyde A. Biston, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CES Synergies commented, "Our fourth quarter results demonstrated increased revenues with an improved gross margin and profitability. We believe these results are an indication of the strengthening in our markets in the southeast, where we've seen increased remediation activity related to an upswing in government and municipal renovation projects. Subsequent to the close of the fourth quarter, we announced several new awards including: a contract with the New Orleans Housing Authority for the remediation and demolition of multifamily housing; a demolition project with Canam Steel in the Florida Panhandle; work with the Florida Department of Transportation on Phase III of the State Road 7 project; and a contract for abatement and demolition work at Eglin Air Force Base. Additionally, we've recently broadened our management team with the addition of three senior project managers who will expand our business development efforts. While quarters will fluctuate, we are encouraged by the long term organic growth opportunity that is being created as our markets grow stronger and bid activity increases. 

"2013 marks our listing as a public company and we look forward to our continued participation in the public markets as we focus on growing our Company and building shareholder value."
