SEE DIAL IN NUMBER BELOW
TABER, ALBERTA, May 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FLEXIBLE SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC. (NYSE Amex: FSI), is the developer and manufacturer of biodegradable polymers for oil extraction, detergent ingredients and water treatment as well as crop nutrient availability chemistry. Flexible Solutions also manufactures biodegradable and environmentally safe water and energy conservation technologies. FSI is also increasing its presense in the food and nutrition supplement manufacturing markets. Today the Company announces financial results for first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Mr. Daniel B. O’Brien, CEO, states, “The customers who adjusted inventory in Q1 returned to normal order patterns in April.” Mr. O’Brien continues, “ENP also saw lower revenue, which has rebounded in Q2 and we had lower investment income as a result of reduced ownership in the FL LLC.”
- Sales for the first quarter (Q1) were $7,473,692 down approximately 19% when compared to sales of $9,224,872 in the corresponding period a year ago.
- Q1, 2025 net income (loss) was ($277,734), or ($0.02) compared to a net income of $457,226, or $0.04 per share, in Q1, 2024.
- The lower earnings reported for Q1, 2025 were due to lower sales volume, higher cost of goods including higher tariffs. Some costs that are needed for the CAPEX get classified as expenses and are set against current income. Our costs for the Panama factory have similar accounting effects.
- Basic weighted average shares used in computing earnings per share amounts were 12,587,476 and 12,449,699 for Q1, 2025 and Q1, 2024 respectively.
- Q1, 2025 Non-GAAP operating cash flow: The Company shows 3 months operating cash flow of $480,268, or $0.04 per share. This compares with operating cash flow of $1,382,874, or $0.11 per share, in the corresponding 3 months of 2024 (see the table and notes that follow for details of these calculations).
The NanoChem division and ENP subsidiary continue to be the dominant sources of revenue and cash flow for the Company. New opportunities continue to unfold in detergent, water treatment, oil field extraction, turf, ornamental and agricultural use to further increase sales in these divisions. More recently, opportunities in the food and nutrition supplement manufacturing markets have emerged.

Notes: certain items not related to “operations” of the Company’s net income are listed below.
a) Non-GAAP – Flexible Solutions International purchased 65% of ENP in 4th quarter, 2018 (October 2018). Therefore Operating Cash Flow is adjusted by the pre tax Net income or loss of the non-controlling interest in ENP for 2023 only. After 2023 the entry in the “Statement of operations and comprehensive income” is a pretax number therefore no adjustment is required.
b) Non-GAAP – amounts exclude certain cash and non-cash items: Depreciation and Stock compensation expense (2025 = $563,118, 2024 = $676,026), Interest expense (2025 = $198,019, 2024 = $175,266), Interest income (2025 = 49,573, $2024 = $48,197), Loss on lease termination (2025 = N/A, 2024 = $41,350), Gain on investment (2025 = $63,925, 2024 = $182,975), Income tax expense (2025 = $110,363, 2024 = $264,178), and pretax Net income attributable to non-controlling interests (2025 = $13,693, 2024 = $58,983). These onetime expenditures were not related to operations of FSI. *See the financial statements for all adjustments.
c) The revenue and gain from the 50% investment in the private Florida LLC announced in January 2019 are not treated as revenue or profit from operations by Flexible Solutions given the Company does not have control. The profit is treated as investment income and therefore occurs below Operating income in the Statement of Operations. In August 2024, the Company sold 30.1% of its holdings in the Florida LLC and currently has a 19.9% share, with a contract in place to sell the remainder over the next five years. As a result, the gains from all investments (2025 = $63,925, 2024 = $182,975), including those from the Florida LLC, are removed from the calculation to arrive at Operating Cash Flow
d) Non-GAAP – amounts represent depreciation and stock compensation expense.
