MONTREAL, QC / ACCESSWIRE / January 14, 2021 / Loop Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:LOOP) (the "Company" or "Loop Industries"), a leading sustainable plastics technology innovator, today announced its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending February 28, 2021 and provided an update on its continuing progress in implementing its business plan.
Highlights
- Initiated the work with SUEZ on European Infinite LoopTM project.
- Initiated conversion of the Company's Pilot Plant to a demonstration and training facility in support of Infinite LoopTM commercialization.
- Independent verification report published attesting to the capacity of our technology to produce DMT and MEG monomers within our purity specifications.
- Received confirmation of registration for our DMT and MEG monomers for Europe.
In the quarter, we continued to focus on the completion of the engineering of the Infinite LoopTM manufacturing process, including the integration of our depolymerization process with INVISTA's polymerization know how, with the assistance of Worley Group, a leading global engineering, procurement and construction company, and Chemtex Global Corporation.
We also initiated work in the quarter on our planned European facility with SUEZ, a world leader in environmental services. To support this project and the Company's European business activities, the Company has hired Laurent Auguste, a former senior executive of Veolia, in an advisory capacity.
In connection with our agreements with SUEZ and Chemtex, and more broadly with the commercialization activities of our future Infinite LoopTM manufacturing facilities, we have decided to convert our pilot plant to an Infinite LoopTM demonstration and training facility in support of the commercialization of our technology. The demonstration facility will be used to showcase the Infinite LoopTM technology to potential partners and customers, and train operational teams in advance of the commissioning of commercial plants. We made investments of $2,325,540 for this project during the three months ended November 30, and we expect this project to be largely completed by third quarter of calendar 2021. In addition, subsequent to the quarter, we have also entered into an agreement to acquire PET polymerization equipment from Chemtex to manufacture limited quantities of Loop™ branded PET resin at our demonstration plant and have the capability to supply product to select customers.
During the quarter, we commissioned Kemitek, a College Centre for Technology Transfer specialized in the fields of green chemistry and chemical process scale-up, to validate that our technology at mini-pilot and pilot scale can produce primary building blocks, or monomers: DMT and MEG. Their report concluded that the quality of the monomers meets Loop Industries' specifications for the production of PET resin and polyester fiber.
In addition, we recently received a confirmation of registration for our DMT, and MEG monomers from the European Chemicals Agency confirming that our monomers are of a purity equal to what is currently recognized within Europe and entitling us to manufacture and import the monomers into Europe for use as food contact materials. This confirmation comes in addition to our previously disclosed a legal opinion confirming that our depolymerization technology meets U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") requirements to produce suitably pure DMT and MEG for use in food-grade packaging.
Our joint venture with Indorama decided over the summer that due to the COVID-19 situation it would temporarily delay work on the Spartanburg project. During the quarter continued COVID-related travel restrictions and quarantine requirements between Canada and the U.S. continued to cause disruptions in our timetable. The joint venture plans to resume certain activities in the first quarter of calendar 2021.
The Company is in the planning phase for an Infinite LoopTM manufacturing facility in the province of Québec. As part of this process, subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company signed a purchase option to acquire approximately 2,000,000 square feet of land in Bécancour, Québec.

Third Quarter Ended November 30, 2020
The net loss for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 increased $10.32 million to $14.17 million, as compared to the net loss for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019 which was $3.85 million. The increase of $10.32 million is primarily attributable to higher research and development expenses of $5.00 million, the write-down and impairment of machinery and equipment of $5.03 million, higher general and administrative expenses of $0.90 million, lower interest income of $0.15 million, and an increase in foreign exchange loss of $0.09 million, offset by lower interest and other financial (income) expenses of $0.73 million and lower depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.12 million.
Research and development expenses for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 amounted to $6.27 million compared to $1.28 million for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, an increase of $5.00 million, or $4.96 million excluding stock-based compensation. The increase of $4.96 million was primarily attributable to higher purchases of non-capitalizable research and development machinery and equipment of $2.33 million, higher engineering fees of $2.19 million due to external engineering costs for our Infinite LoopTM manufacturing process, higher employee compensation expenses of $0.20 million, higher pilot plant and laboratory consumables and maintenance expenses of $0.19 million, and by lower research and development tax credits of $0.10 million.
General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 amounted to $2.72 million compared to $1.83 million for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, an increase of $0.90 million, or $0.92 million excluding stock-based compensation. The increase of $0.92 million was mainly attributable to higher legal and professional fees of $0.84 million due to costs principally associated with the ongoing SEC investigation disclosed in our 8-K filed on October 16, 2020 and securities class action suits, and higher insurance expenses of $0.31, offset by lower employee compensation costs of $0.23 million.
Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 totaled $0.10 million compared to $0.22 million for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, a decrease of $0.12 million. This decrease is mainly attributable to the write-down of machinery and equipment assets.
A write-down and impairment of machinery and equipment for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 totaled $5.03 million compared to nil for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019.
The machinery and equipment will continue to be utilized at our demonstration and training facility as it is an integral part of supporting the commercialization of our technology. However, the decision to dedicate the demonstration and training facility to research and development activities requires them to be written off and all future costs associated with the demonstration and training facility will be recognized as a research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development Costs.
Interest and other financial (income) expenses for the three-month period ended November 30, 2020 totaled $(0.04) million compared to $0.69 million the three-month period ended November 30, 2019, a decrease of $0.73 million. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in accretion expense of $0.56 million, a decrease in interest expense on convertible notes of $0.09 million and by an increase in gain on revaluation of foreign exchange contracts of $0.08 million.
