Ideal Power Inc.: Ideal Power Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results

AUSTIN, Texas, March 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ideal Power Inc. ("Ideal Power" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: IPWR), pioneering the development and commercialization of the highly efficient and broadly patented B-TRAN bidirectional semiconductor power switch, reported results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2022.

"Ideal Power accomplished a great deal in 2022 and early 2023. The recent launch of our first commercial product, the SymCool Power Module, marks a pivotal development for our B-TRAN technology," said Dan Brdar, President and Chief Executive Officer of Ideal Power. "Our intense focus continues toward B-TRAN commercialization. We believe B-TRAN has the potential to displace conventional power semiconductor solutions in many applications including electric vehicles (EV"), renewable energy, energy storage, solid-state circuit breakers and motor drives."

Key Fourth Quarter and Recent Operational Highlights

  • Launched its first commercial product, the SymCool Power Module, a multi-die B-TRAN module designed specifically to enable solid-state circuit breakers to deliver very low conduction losses.
  • Entered into a product development agreement with a top 10 global automaker for a custom B-TRAN power module for use in EV drivetrain inverters in the automaker's next generation EV platform. Represents Ideal Power's second engagement with a leading global automobile manufacturer.
  • Shipped additional B-TRAN devices to Diversified Technologies, Inc., our Naval Sea Systems Command program collaboration partner, in preparation for a full-scale medium voltage direct current circuit breaker demonstration.
  • To prepare for commercial product shipments, the Company is nearing completion of a full process flow engineering run at a wafer fabrication partner with high-volume production capability.
  • Released a new Ideal Power whitepaper entitled B-TRAN - Device Structure, Performance and Applications. The test results in the new whitepaper match the Company's previous simulation data, further validating the B-TRAN technology. This whitepaper includes recent test results using the Company's newly designed driver and double-sided cooled packaged devices. It shows switching characteristics and waveforms important for customer technical teams using double pulse testing, including testing in bidirectional mode.
  • B-TRAN Patent Estate: Currently at 72 issued B-TRAN patents with 31 of those issued outside of the United States and 24 pending B-TRAN patents. Current geographic coverage includes North America, China, Japan, South Korea, India and Europe.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Financial Results

  • Grant revenue was $16,608 in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $128,605 in the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Grant revenue was $203,269 for the full year 2022 compared to $576,399 for the full year 2021.
  • Operating expenses in the fourth quarter of 2022 were $2.0 million compared to $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 driven primarily by higher research and development spending.
  • Operating expenses in the full year 2022 were $7.3 million compared to $4.8 million in the full year 2021 with higher research and development spending accounting for a majority of the increase.
  • Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2022 was $1.9 million compared to $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.
  • Net loss in the full year 2022 was $7.2 million compared to $4.8 million in the full year 2021.
  • Cash used in operating activities in full year 2022 was $6.4 million compared to $4.3 million in full year 2021. Overall, cash burn for the full year 2022 was $6.8 million.
  • Cash and cash equivalents totaled $16.3 million at December 31, 2022.
  • Ideal Power had no long-term debt outstanding at December 31, 2022.

2023 Milestones

For 2023, the Company has set the following milestones:

  • Launched first commercial product, the SymCool Power Module in January 2023 with first commercial sales later in 2023.
  • Complete Phase I of multi-year development program with top 10 global automaker in Q2 2023.
  • Complete first engineering run with production fab in Q2 2023.
  • Deliver packaged B-TRANs to DTI under the NAVSEA program in 1H 2023.
  • Introduce second commercial product, an intelligent power module, in Q3 2023.
  • Deliver B-TRAN samples for test and evaluation program in 2H 2023.
