WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J., Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hudson (NYSE:) Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: HDSN) announced results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Hudson reported revenues of $75.3 million, a decrease of 17% compared to revenues of $90.5 million in the comparable 2023 period. The decrease is primarily related to decreased selling prices for certain refrigerants, lower revenue from the Company’s DLA contract and reduced carbon credit revenue in the quarter compared to the second quarter of 2023. This was partially offset by an increase in volume of 17% for refrigerants sold when compared to the same quarter last year. Gross margin in the second quarter of 2024 was 30%, compared to 41% in the second quarter of 2023. Hudson reported operating income of $12.8 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to operating income of $27.7 million in the prior year period. Included in the second quarter 2024 selling, general and administrative expenses are approximately $0.7 million of non-recurring costs associated with the USA acquisition and IT expenses. The Company recorded net income of $9.6 million or $0.21 per basic and $0.20 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $19.2 million or $0.42 per basic and $0.41 per diluted share in the same period of 2023.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, Hudson reported revenues of $140.5 million, a decrease of 16% compared to revenues of $167.7 million for the first six months of 2023. Revenues for the first six months declined primarily due to decreased selling prices for certain refrigerants as well as lower revenue from the Company’s DLA contract, partially offset by an increase in the volume of refrigerants sold. Gross margin for the first half of 2024 was 31%, compared to gross margin of 40% in the first half of 2023. Hudson reported operating income of $25.6 million for the first six months of 2024 compared to operating income of $50.3 million in the first six months of 2023.
