LOS ANGELES, March 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (NASDAQ: CRKN) ("Crown" or the "Company"), a leading smart glass technology company and an expert in both designing and installing distributed antenna systems (DAS) and constructing fiber optic networks, today announced its year-end 2022 financial results.

Corporate Updates During and Subsequent to the Fourth Quarter 2022

  • Closed the asset acquisition of Amerigen 7, integrated organizations, and completed rebrand to Crown Fiber Optics
  • Expanded to three customers including two new large telco infrastructure companies with estimated revenue potential up to $100 million
  • Raised $7.1 million in Q1 2023 through a combination of debt and equity issuances
  • Closed up to $100 million line of credit
  • Advancing EK film production

Doug Croxall, Crown CEO and Chairman, said, “Our fourth quarter was extremely productive setting the stage for growth opportunities across our now two business units. With the successful acquisition and rebranding of Amerigen 7, to Crown Fiber Optics, we have already entered into two new agreements with leading infrastructure solutions providers, expanding our geographic US footprint, diversifying our revenue base, and making revenue more predictable. We look forward to 2023 being a year of execution.”

Financial Results for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 12 months ended 2021 (2021 unaudited due to nine-month stub year)

This Net loss was $22.8 million lower than the $37.2 million recorded during the 12 months ended December 31, 2021, which included $12.2 million of non-cash compensation and $14.6 million of Other Income/expense.

Operating Expenses: Operating Expenses were $15.1 million comprising $2.4 million of non-cash stock-based compensation, $7.0 million of payroll expense, $2.6 million in consulting and professional fees, and $3.1 million of operating overhead. Excluding stock compensation expense, operating expenses were higher by $2.7 million in 2022, compared to the same period in 2021, due to increased payroll costs $1.5 million, rent and utilities $0.6 million and other overheads $0.7 million.
