Insights

Loop Industries' Q3 FY2025 results reveal significant strategic shifts and financial developments. The $20.8 million financing and technology licensing deal with Reed Societe Generale Group provides important capital, structured as $10.4 million from Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issuance and $10.4 million from their first technology license sale. The net loss widened to $11.9 million, primarily due to an $8.46 million impairment charge related to the terminated SK Geo Centric joint venture.

The company's pivot to a technology licensing model in high-cost regions while focusing direct investments in low-cost manufacturing locations like India represents a strategic realignment to optimize capital deployment. With cash position at just $323,000 as of November 30, 2024, down from $6.96 million in February 2024, the recent financing was critical for operational sustainability.

The decision to terminate the SK Geo Centric joint venture, while maintaining their investment stake, suggests a realistic approach to capital allocation in challenging market conditions. The engineering services revenue stream, though modest at $52,000 for Q3, indicates early traction in the new business model.

The commercialization of Loop's PET recycling technology is reaching a critical inflection point. Their textile-to-textile (T2T) polyester fiber capabilities, particularly in India, target a growing market demand for sustainable fashion materials. The strategic decision to partner with Tata Consulting Engineers adds credibility to the India project's execution capabilities.

The qualification of Loop's fiber with major spinning companies across different regions validates their technology's commercial viability. The Gujarat facility's strategic location near seaports and waste PET sources optimizes the supply chain logistics. The facility's dual capability to produce both T2T polyester and bottle-grade PET resin provides operational flexibility and market diversification.

The shift from capital-intensive direct investments in high-cost regions to a licensing model demonstrates adaptation to market realities while maintaining technology control. This model allows for faster global expansion without the heavy capital requirements of facility ownership.

Loop management to hold update call at 8:30 AM ET on January 15, 2025

MONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / January 14, 2025 / Loop Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:LOOP) (the "Company," "Loop," "we," "us," or "our"), a clean technology company whose mission is to accelerate a circular plastics economy by manufacturing 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate ("PET") plastic and textile-to-textile ("T2T") polyester fiber, today reported its consolidated financial results for the third quarter for fiscal year 2025 and provided an update on business developments.

Transactions with Reed Societe General Group

On December 23, 2024, Loop closed its financing and technology licensing transactions for total cash proceeds of $20.8 million (€20 million) with Reed Societe Generale Group, a European investment firm majority-owned by Societe Generale. These transactions mark a pivotal step in Loop's commercialization strategy, enabling the deployment of our patented recycling technology across Europe and supporting capital investment in cost-effective manufacturing regions, including our joint venture in India with strategic partner Ester Industries Ltd ("Ester"). Proceeds from the financing and licensing deal will be utilized to fund the Indian project and Loop's operational cash flow needs.

As part of the financing transaction, Loop issued 1,044,430 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Shares") to Reed Circular Economy, an affiliate of Reed Societe General Group, at $10.00 per share, generating total proceeds of approximately $10.4 million (€10 million). The Series B Shares bear a 13% PIK dividend and are convertible to Loop common stock at $4.75 per share or redeemable in cash.

As part of the licensing transaction, Loop sold its first license to deploy Loop's proprietary depolymerization technology in a single Infinite Loop™ manufacturing facility in Europe for an up-front payment of $10.4 million (€10 million). The technology license includes two additional payments based on milestones. Loop also expects to generate engineering fees for the provision of engineering packages and support services for all Infinite Loop™ manufacturing facilities and future facilities under this partnership will require the purchase of additional technology licenses from Loop.

The technology license sold by Loop will be utilized by a European partnership owned 90% by Reed Circular Economy and 10% by Loop, which is being formed to develop Infinite Loop™ manufacturing facilities in Europe. Loop retains the right to increase its equity stake in the European manufacturing facility, as well as potential future facilities, to a maximum of 50% for each facility.

The license sale underscores the commercial readiness of Loop's technology, validated by four years of successful operations at its Terrebonne facility, which supplies bottle-grade PET resin for consumer packaging and T2T polyester fiber to advance circular fashion for apparel brands. Loop is committed to expanding the reach of its proven solution to the plastic waste global issue by partnering with well-financed, reliable customers through technology licenses and engineering services. This strategy allows Loop to address global demand in regions where it does not plan to build facilities, driving further growth and value creation while focusing Loop's internal resources and capital on direct equity investments.

Infinite Loop™ India Update

Loop and its joint venture partner Ester continue to make good progress towards groundbreaking of the Infinite Loop™ India manufacturing facility. Following an extensive land study, the Gujarat province was confirmed as the optimal site due to its robust infrastructure, proximity to a seaport, renewable energy potential, and abundant waste PET and polyester feedstocks. Loop and Ester are currently completing due diligence with various parties for the acquisition of land in this region.

Loop and Ester have contracted Tata Consulting Engineers Limited, a prominent global engineering firm based in India, to provide the necessary engineering services for the successful construction of the project. Loop has been contracted to provide all of the process related engineering services to support Tata Consulting Engineers. A Big Four accounting firm has been hired to produce the detailed project report and to manage the debt syndication of the project. Groundbreaking is expected to be in the second quarter of 2025, with construction completion anticipated in late 2026 and commercial operations commencing in 2027.

The Infinite Loop™ India project is ideally positioned to fulfill demand by circular fashion brands for T2T polyester. The India JV plans to source waste polyester feedstocks in India to manufacture polyester resin made from 100% textile waste to supply apparel brands. Loop has also been developing relationships and expertise within the polyester fiber supply chain in order to deliver polyester fiber for certain customers rather than polyester resin. We have qualified Loop's fiber for brands with large spinning companies in various geographical regions.

The Infinite Loop™ India facility will also be producing bottle grade PET resin produced using PET bottle waste as feedstock to supply our global customer base in the beverage and packaging industries.

With the proceeds from the Reed transactions and expected government support, Loop is in a position to finance its share of the initial equity capital required to finance the Indian facility. The Company is also actively pursuing additional licensing opportunities and other sources of financing as it continues with the development of the India project.

Partnership with SK Geo Centric ("SKGC")

Effective January 14, 2025, Loop and SKGC have mutually agreed to terminate their joint venture agreement executed by the parties on April 27, 2023 to construct and operate an Infinite Loop™ manufacturing facility in Ulsan, South Korea. This joint decision reflected Loop's strategy to focus capital deployment in low-cost jurisdictions and prioritize a licensing and engineering services model in higher cost countries, as well as a strategic restructuring and re-orientation within the SK Group.

Although SKGC currently intends to maintain its financial investment in Loop and continues to have the right to nominate a director on Loop's Board of Directors (the "Board"), Mr. Jonghyuk Lee resigned from the Board on January 13, 2025 with immediate effect, due to a change in his role within the restructured SKGC organization.

CEO Comment

Daniel Solomita, Founder and CEO of Loop, commented on the recent updates, saying: "The successful completion of our transaction with Reed Societe Generale Group marks a significant step towards our strategic goals. This includes investing in low-cost manufacturing locations like India and licensing our technology to companies seeking solutions to the plastic waste crisis in higher-cost regions such as Europe. We are eager to collaborate closely with Reed Societe Generale Group to deliver our first European project.

Our Indian joint venture is progressing as planned. We have witnessed strong customer engagement within the circular fashion sector, driven by Loop's unique ability to provide virgin-quality polyester fiber to fashion brands through our innovative textile-to-textile recycling technology. We have further expanded our product offerings to include spun polyester fiber, enabling us to become a Tier 3 supplier and broaden our reach within the fashion industry. To effectively serve our customers, we've established a global network of spinning partners who will collaborate with Loop.

Loop's engineering services division has started generating revenue, and we will continue to invest in this team to expand our service offerings to all partners and licensees of our technology."

About Loop Industries

Loop Industries is a technology company whose mission is to accelerate the world's shift toward sustainable PET plastic and polyester fiber and away from our dependence on fossil fuels. Loop Industries owns patented and proprietary technology that depolymerizes no and low-value waste PET plastic and polyester fiber, including plastic bottles and packaging, carpets and textiles of any color, transparency or condition and even ocean plastics that have been degraded by the sun and salt, to its base building blocks (monomers). The monomers are filtered, purified and polymerized to create virgin-quality Loop™ branded PET resin suitable for use in food-grade packaging and polyester fiber, thus enabling our customers to meet their sustainability objectives. Loop™ PET plastic and polyester fiber can be recycled infinitely without degradation of quality, successfully closing the plastic loop. Loop Industries is contributing to the global movement towards a circular economy by reducing plastic waste and recovering waste plastic for a sustainable future.

Common shares of the Company are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol "LOOP."
