June 30, 2018 Second Quarter Results and Corporate Update

Flame Seal Products, Inc. Releases June 30, 2018 Results

HOUSTON, TX , Aug. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FLAME SEAL PRODUCTS, INC. (OTC PINK: FLMP), a leading provider of Specialty Chemicals for the Passive Fire Protection Market, today issues the following update to its Stockholders.

From: Craig Keyser, CEO

Subject: June 30, 2018 Second Quarter Results and Corporate Update 

Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 were $586,604, a $101,062 or 15% decrease compared to the June 30, 2017 quarter and a sequential $81,989 decrease or 12% less than the March 31, 2018 quarter.

Craig Keyser comments, "Flame Seal’s (FSP) sales continue unsatisfactorily as the prolonged transition away from legacy products has stretched out longer than planned. The testing and certification of FSP’s next generation technology, which is targeted to penetrate far larger markets requiring flame retardant protection for public safety has proven to be more exacting than anticipated, though the learning process is yielding some encouraging results. The company is in the process of completing our internal evaluation of a new coating product for the construction industry.  Once the internal evaluation has been successfully completed we will initiate formal third-party testing to complete the certification requirements prior to launching our marketing campaign. By developing new, competitive technologies Flame Seal is committed to achieving success.”

Operating Results

For the quarter ending June 30, 2017 FSP’s net profit was $13,370. Please note the small profit was a result of capitalizing a greater portion of FSP’s $151,436 costs of development and testing of new products. The critical nature of these programs to the long-term success of our company cannot be overstated.   

Operations

During the second quarter FSP maintained healthy gross operating margins. Operations are challenged at the current level of sales with existing product offerings but will improve with higher sales when testing and certifications prove successful.   

Balance Sheet Status

FSP’s current ratio of 3.8 and remains healthy. Receivables are current and cash levels remain narrowly adequate to navigate through our product line transition.  As of June 30, 2018, FSP has 71,228,296 shares outstanding compared with 71,192,396 at first quarter’s end.

Craig Keyser notes, “Since 2013, we’ve dramatically improved our financial condition, but 2018 continues to be challenging as testing new technology has presented unanticipated results. We appreciate our stockholders ongoing support and trust.” 

Shareholder Meeting

Flame Seal is planning to hold a shareholder meeting in the fourth quarter of 2018.  Details will be communicated once the schedule and program has been developed.
