Exhibit 99.1

 

 

ClearSign Technologies Corporation Provides Second Quarter 2022 Update

 

TULSA, Okla., September 1, 2022 -- ClearSign Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: CLIR) ("ClearSign" or the "Company"), an emerging leader in industrial combustion and sensing technologies that improve energy, operational efficiency and safety while dramatically reducing emissions, today provides an update on operations for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

 

“We have made significant headway this quarter in both major product lines, including sales development and advancing our technology,” said Jim Deller, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of ClearSign. “Progress on existing projects has been good, with the timeline of our largest project accelerating and a significant follow on order received; we have greatly increased proposal and sales activity and expect to make further announcements soon; and finally we have approval to return to China in person and look forward to continuing our development there.”

 

Recent strategic and operational highlights during and subsequent to the second quarter of 2022 include:

 

Received Follow On Purchase Order for California Refinery Multi Heater Project: The order is to proceed with the next phase in the previously announced twenty burner project for a California refinery and is for the purchase of four burners for testing, the multi burner test and other ancillary items. The timing and scope of this order is due to the acceleration of the project timeline. The engineering and computer modelling for this project has been completed and the remaining timeline for this project has been accelerated. The Company expects an additional purchase order for the manufacture and supply of the remaining sixteen burners during the fourth quarter of this year.

 

Announced an Enclosed Oxidizer Sale to Canada Based Hydrogen Technology Production Company: The company closed a sale of a ClearSign Core™ enclosed oxidizer for installation in a pilot scale hydrogen production plant.  The Canadian customer is developing a breakthrough technology for the production of clean hydrogen.

 

Announced the Appointment of Energy Industry Veteran Gary DiElsi to the Board of Directors: Mr. DiElsi is a seasoned energy executive with a broad background of over 40 years of experience from private equity, major global enterprises, smaller industrial companies, and startup ventures, including both turnaround and growth situations. He is filling the open position from which Bruce A. Pate stepped down from.

 

Closed an underwritten public offering of Common Stock and Full Exercise of Purchase Right Granted to clirSPV LLC: The Company closed an offering of 4,186,000 shares of its common stock at a price to the public of $1.11 per share. The total offering included 546,000 shares issued pursuant to the full exercise of the underwriter's over-allotment option.  Gross proceeds to ClearSign from this offering were approximately $4,646,460 before deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other offering expenses. As a result of the Company's underwritten public offering completed on June 1, 2022, and pursuant to their Purchase Right, clirSPV LLC purchased its entire allotment of 1,591,594 shares for net proceeds of approximately $1,740,000 to the Company.  ClearSign intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for working capital, research and development, marketing and sales, and general corporate purposes.

Awarded Grant from Department of Energy to Develop a Hydrogen Fueled Ultra Low NOx Process Burner: The Company was awarded a government grant through the Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) program with the Department of Energy. The goal of this project is to develop ultra-low NOx hydrogen burner technology which will enable the adoption of hydrogen fuel for industrial heating, leading to reductions in the industrial emissions of both carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides. The project and funding are in phases.  The initial funding amount is approximately $250,000 and the project will last six months starting at the end of June. If needed, and upon completion of the Phase 1 work, the Company will be able to submit a follow-up proposal to continue the development work with a Phase 2 grant. Phase 2 grant funding can be up to $1.6 million for a two-year duration.

 

Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $9,007,000 on June 30, 2022.

 

There were 37,951,559 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding as of August 1, 2022.

Cautionary note on forward-looking statements

 

All statements in this press release that are not based on historical fact are “forward-looking statements.” You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” “will” or other similar expressions. While management has based any forward-looking statements included in this press release on its current expectations on the Company’s strategy, plans, intentions, performance, or future occurrences or results, the information on which such expectations were based may change. These forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, that could cause actual results to materially differ from such statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to successfully install our burners in the California refinery and complete the anticipated project within the updated timeline, our performance of the Phase I work and likelihood that we submit, and are approved, for Phase II grant funding, general business and economic conditions, the performance of management and our employees, our ability to obtain financing, competition, whether our technology will be accepted and adopted and other factors identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and available at www.sec.gov and other factors that are detailed in our periodic and current reports available for review at www.sec.gov. Furthermore, we operate in a competitive environment where new and unanticipated risks may arise. Accordingly, investors should not place any reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We disclaim any intention to, and, except as may be required by law, undertake no obligation to, update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that subsequently occur or of which we hereafter become aware.
