Insights

Eco Wave Power's H1 2024 results show a mixed financial picture. While the company managed to reduce operating expenses by 1.6% to $1.35 million, its net loss increased to $1,018,000 from $859,000 in the same period last year. This was primarily due to a decrease in financial income.

The company's cash position remains strong at $7.48 million, providing a solid runway for ongoing projects. However, investors should note that R&D, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses are expected to increase significantly as the company scales up its operations and projects.

The announcement of a share repurchase program could potentially support the stock price, but its impact will depend on the execution and market conditions. Overall, while Eco Wave Power is making operational progress, it's still in a cash-burning phase with no significant revenue generation yet.

Eco Wave Power is making significant strides in the wave energy sector. The EWP-EDF One Project in Israel has shown impressive improvements, reaching 0% downtime and improving energy generation by 17%. This demonstrates the technology's increasing reliability and efficiency.

The company's expansion plans are ambitious, with projects in the Port of Los Angeles and Portugal progressing. The 20MW Concession Agreement in Porto is particularly noteworthy, as it represents a significant scale-up from previous installations.

The EDF Pulse Award and collaboration with Shell add credibility to Eco Wave Power's technology. However, the wave energy sector still faces challenges in achieving cost-competitiveness with other renewables. The proposed Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act in the U.S. could provide a substantial boost if passed, potentially accelerating the industry's development.

Eco Wave Power is positioning itself at the forefront of the emerging wave energy market. The company's progress in Israel, the U.S. and Portugal demonstrates a strategic approach to global market penetration. The potential $1 billion investment proposed in the U.S. Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act signals growing government interest in this sector.

However, investors should be aware that the wave energy market is still in its infancy. While Eco Wave Power's technology shows promise, widespread adoption and commercialization may take time. The company's focus on port installations is a smart niche strategy, but scaling up to utility-level production remains a challenge.

The collaboration with established energy players like EDF and Shell is a positive sign, potentially opening doors for future partnerships and market expansion. As the company moves towards its first MW-scale project in Portugal, its ability to deliver on time and on budget will be important for investor confidence.

The Company also Announced its Support for the Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act, federal legislation in the U.S. that would invest $1 billion to advance marine energy toward full scale commercialization.

STOCKHOLM, Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Wave Power Global AB (publ) ("Eco Wave Power" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: WAVE), a leading, publicly traded onshore wave energy technology company that has developed a patented, smart, and cost-efficient technology for turning ocean and sea waves into green electricity, is pleased to report its financial results as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and provide a corporate update.

Management Commentary

Operations

During the first half of 2024, Eco Wave Power continued to demonstrate resilience by decreasing its operating expenses by 1.6% compared to the first half of 2023, ending the quarter with $7.48 million in cash and in short term bank deposits. At the same time, we have achieved the following milestones:

  • In Israel, the EWP-EDF One Project in the Port of Jaffa, has been delivering clean energy from the waves to the Israeli National electrical grid, since its connection to the grid in the end of 2023. An opening ceremony for the project is due to be held in December 2024. During the second quarter of 2024, Eco Wave Power and EDF Renewables IL have continued their analysis of the project's operational results; and results from the second quarter of operation continue to be encouraging, both in terms of improvement of the energy generation results and the decrease in down-time for the power station. For example, downtime has decreased from 4% in April to 0% in June 2024. In addition, the Company was able to get closer to its energy generation target and show 17% improvement from the month of April 2024 to the month of June 2024. 

Also, Eco Wave Power is pleased to announce that the Company and its pioneering Israeli project won the 2024 EDF Pulse Awards in the category of "Developing a Profitable Decentralized Energy System." Eco Wave Power was awarded during a ceremony conducted by Luc Rémont, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of Électricité de France SA in the EDF Pavilion, constructed in partnership with the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. This significant recognition comes in parallel to the productive collaboration between Eco Wave Power and EDF Renewables IL (a subsidiary of Électricité de France), which jointly own and operate the wave energy project in Israel (the EWP-EDF One Project).

  • At the Port of Los Angeles in April 2024, we officially announced that the Company signed a strategic co-investment agreement with Shell International Exploration and Production Inc. ("Shell MRE") for the implementation of our first U.S-based project, while we also moved forward with the licensing process. In August, 2024, we received a green light from the relevant departments in the Port of Los Angeles for our project's engineering plans, and other documents submitted. The Port of Los Angeles and AltaSea at the Port of LA are planning to submit the full package of documents for a final license from the Army Corps of Engineers in the upcoming week. As soon as we receive the last approval from the Army Corps of Engineers, we expect a very short implementation time of approximately six months for our first U.S. project.

In conjunction with the upcoming wave energy demonstration project to be implemented by Eco Wave Power and Shell MRE at the Port of Los Angeles, U.S. House representatives Nanette Barragán (CA-44) and Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01) introduced the Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act, legislation that would involve the appropriation of $1 billion towards advancing marine energy toward full scale commercialization. Representative Barragán has already visited Eco Wave Power's installation site and was impressed by the abundant possibilities for wave energy implementation in California and in the United States.

The Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act would provide unprecedented levels of funding to the Department of Energy's Waterpower Technologies Office for demonstration projects, research and development, detailed resource potential mapping, workforce development, and more efficient permitting processes.

The legislation is cosponsored by Representatives Suzanne Bonamici (Ore.), Ed Case (Hawaii), Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), Kevin Mullin (Calif.), Val Hoyle (Ore.), Troy Carter (La.), Salud Carbajal (Calif.), and Anne Kuster (NH).

The full text of the bill can be found here.

  • In Portugal, Eco Wave Power officially kicked-off the first MW-scale wave energy project. In July 2024, Inna Braverman, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Eco Wave Power and Eco Wave Power's engineering team, have arrived for a meeting and an official site visit with Administração dos Portos do Douro, Leixões e Viana do Castelo, S.A (APDL), and other relevant stakeholders for the official kickoff of the Company's first MW-scale wave energy project, to be located in the city of Porto in Portugal.

Following the meeting with APDL, Eco Wave Power's engineering team held a site visit to the breakwater and the room underneath the breakwater ("The Gallery"), where Eco Wave Power's energy conversion equipment will be installed, and later opened to the public as a first of its kind wave energy museum and education centre.

During the site visit, Eco Wave Power's team met with local subcontractors and manufacturers to choose the preferred entities that will take part in the execution of this innovative project.

The first MW project is being executed in line with a 20MW Concession Agreement entered with APDL and is planned to be followed by a gradual expansion to the whole 20MW of installed capacity.

In March 2024, the Company received the final approval necessary for the commencement of the construction works of its first commercial-size project in Porto (TURH license) from APDL Port Authority and in turn issued a performance bond to APDL, meant to solidify the Company's commitment for the construction of the first commercial wave energy project within a two-year period.

Eco Wave Power's project is well in line with the renewable energy plan of the Government of Portugal, as in July 2024 Portugal announced that it aims to generate 85% of its annual electricity production from renewable sources by 2030, compared to 61% in 2023, one of the highest ratios in Europe.

ADS repurchase

  • In December 2023, Eco Wave Power submitted an official request to the Financial Supervisory Authority of Sweden ("SFSA"), to receive authorization for the Company's repurchase of American Depositary Shares ("ADS") representing up to 10 percent of the total number of shares in the Company, which is the maximum amount permitted by Swedish Law.

In August 2024, the SFSA responded that in its opinion, the ADS are not considered equivalent to shares in accordance with Chapter 19 of the Swedish Companies Act. As a result, the Company should be able to repurchase ADS, in accordance with Swedish law.

Any repurchases will be made through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, or otherwise in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

In accordance with this decision, Eco Wave Power will enter into relevant agreements with a bank for the execution of any necessary steps related to the buyback.

CEO Commentary:

In the first half of 2024, we were able to keep the low level of expenses and thus demonstrate our resilience by decreasing our operating expenses by 1.6% compared to the first half of 2023, ending the year with USD 7.48 million in cash and in short term bank deposits.

There was also progress across all key projects, including significant improvements in the operational results of the EWP-EDF One project, at the Port of Jaffa in Israel, which reached 0% downtime for the very first time, and got closer by 17% to its energy generation targets. The company and the project also received the prestigious EDF Pulse Award by Électricité de France (a multinational electric utility company and the largest renewable energy producer in Europe), which we believe will lead to an extended collaboration with the EDF group.

We have also submitted the final licensing documents for the installation of the project at the Port of Los Angeles, and in parallel representatives Nanette Barragán (CA-44) and Suzanne Bonamici (OR-01) introduced the Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act,- a proposed legislation that would appropriate $1 billion to advance marine energy toward full scale commercialization. Representative Barragán has already visited Eco Wave Power's installation site and was impressed by the abundant possibilities for wave energy implementation in California and in the United States.

The Marine Energy Technologies Acceleration Act would provide unprecedented levels of funding to the Department of Energy's Waterpower Technologies Office for demonstration projects, research and development, detailed resource potential mapping, workforce development, and more efficient permitting processes.

We are grateful that representatives Barragán and Bonamici recognized the vast potential of wave energy in meeting the U.S. renewable energy targets and promoting economic growth through the blue economy.

The U.S. is becoming a global leader on climate initiatives, and this new federal legislation further demonstrates the U.S. leadership across the world. We believe that wave energy has massive potential, and we will soon be demonstrating our pioneering technology at the Port of Los Angeles and showcasing that wave energy can be a significant force in combating climate change and powering our communities with clean, reliable energy sourced from the endless power of the ocean.

And finally, we held an official kick off for our first MW-scale project in Portugal, which included a site visit and meeting with relevant subcontractors to advance with the project.

We believe that this will be the first wave energy project in the world to show significant energy production from the power of the waves. I truly believe that this revolutionary project will position Eco Wave Power as a leading wave energy developer and serve as a significant milestone towards the commercialization of our wave energy technology globally. We would like to thank the Municipality of Porto and APDL for being true wave energy pioneers by enabling and supporting the development of an innovative, environmentally friendly energy generation technology which will serve to lower the port's carbon footprint while creating new workplaces and an innovative industry in Portugal.

At the same time, we have reinforced our engineering team by adding two members, and are in the process of establishing a U.S. based sales and business development team to enable the Company to enter into deals for turnkey wave energy projects which we believe will, in turn, significantly boost the Company's revenues, in addition to the revenues that the Company has been generating from feasibility studies and other related engineering services.

The expansion of the engineering team in Israel and the new business development and sales team in the U.S. are well on their way, and we believe that such an enhanced company structure will lead to positive financial results and accelerated project delivery.

Lastly, we are excited to update that we have recently received a green light to commence our American Depository Shares repurchase plan, and we are working on setting the appropriate arrangement with a bank to pursue such opportunity. We believe that our ADS repurchase plan will allow our leadership to have a greater scope to act and have the opportunity to improve the Company's capital structure, driving greater shareholder value and improving the investment value of our company.

Eco Wave Power is entering a very exciting period, which will involve an expansion of our team, expansion of the Company's operational projects and strategic partnerships.

I would like to reiterate our gratitude to our shareholders for joining us on this exciting journey. We look forward to sharing more exciting progress!

First Half 2024 Financial Overview

  • Operating expenses were $1.35 million, down by 1.6% from the same period last year.
    • Research and development (R&D) expenses were $320,000 compared to $323,000 in the same period last year. Research and development costs decreased mainly due to reduction in in payroll and related expenses in the first half of 2024.
