For the three months ended March 31, 2007, Metretek Technologies, Inc. (Amex:MEK) reported record first-quarter revenues of $27.0�million and record first-quarter net income of $2.2�million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to revenues of $14.8�million and net income of $638,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2006. "This was the strongest first quarter in the company's history," noted Sidney Hinton, president and chief executive officer of Metretek Technologies. "PowerSecure, which accounted for 80% of total revenues in the quarter, continues to build on its reputation as a premier provider of turnkey distributed generation solutions and is the engine behind Metretek's growth. It reported first-quarter revenues of $21.5�million, more than double the $9.7�million of a year ago, with segment profit of $1.3�million compared to $256,000 in the prior year." Southern Flow enjoyed a strong quarter as well, generating revenues of $3.9 million and segment profit of $620,000. Metretek Florida's operations also enjoyed a strong quarter and were essentially breakeven on revenues of $953,000, a 30% increase over the first quarter of 2006. "As we have noted in the past," concluded Hinton, "PowerSecure's revenues are heavily influenced by the number, size, and timing of various projects, as well as the percentage of in-process projects completed. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict from quarter to quarter just what PowerSecure's � and by extension, the company's � revenues will be. With that understood, 2007 is off to an excellent start, and current indications are that it will be another record year for the company." In a press release of February 21, 2007, the company reaffirmed previously published guidance for the year ending December 31, 2007. Subsequently, the company announced that it would incur pre-tax non-recurring restructuring charges of approximately $14.1�million related to the retirement in April of its two founders and expenses associated with the relocation of its corporate offices from Denver to Wake Forest, North Carolina. These costs will be reflected in the results of operations for the quarter ending June 30, 2007, to be reported in August, at which time the company will address top- and bottom-line guidance for the year. The Company expects that the restructuring and relocation will result in annual savings of approximately $2.4 million, the effects of which will be recognized for accounting purposes commencing in the second half of 2007.
