Cavico Announces Financial Results for First Quarter Ended, March 31, 2010

Cavico Corp. ("Cavico”) (NASDAQ: CAVO), a leading infrastructure development company based in Vietnam, today announced its audited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010. Total revenue for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010 increased by $2.7 million, or 23% to $14.6 million from $11.9 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2009. The Company’s income before interest, depreciation and amortization, income tax and non-controlling interest for the periods ended March 31, 2010 was $864,989.

First Quarter Revenues of 2010 Compared to 2009

The financial results for 2010 include Cavico Mining and Construction JCS ("Cavico Mining”), as a result of the purchase agreement consummated on February 11, 2010, in which Cavico now owns 50.24% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Cavico Mining.

Revenue from the Civil Construction segment for the three months increased by $111,993 to $10.1 million compared to $10.0 million in the same period of 2009. The increase in revenue is primarily attributable to the progress of the Company’s hydropower construction projects. Revenue from the Mining Construction segment during the first quarter of 2010 was $767,346. There is no comparison to 2009 as the mining construction segment, solely from revenues from Cavico Mining, was not included in consolidation in 2009 and is now a new reporting segment for the Company. Revenues from other Commercial Activities, which includes leasing machinery and equipment and selling raw materials and steel fabrication increased in the first quarter of 2010 by $1.9 million, or 99% to $3.8 million from $1.9 million a year ago. The revenue increase in Commercial Activities is primarily attributable to an increase in demand for construction materials as Vietnam continues its economic recovery.

Mr. Ha Quang Bui, chairman and chief executive officer of Cavico Corp., stated, "Cavico’s team executed at the highest level during the quarter which further strengthens our market leadership position as Vietnam’s largest non-state-owned engineering and construction contractor. Cavico’s revenue growth demonstrates that we are focused on serving the right markets with the most potential for growth and reaffirms our long-term business strategy. Our national presence, coupled with a solid track-record of delivering high-quality projects in a timely manner will ensure that we will continue to be awarded significant projects from our public sector clients. The government recognizes that in order to attract the right foreign investments into the country, it must improve its infrastructure, which will directly benefit Cavico.”

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2010, Cavico had a net loss before non-controlling interest of $1.2 million compared to a net profit of $345,069 for the same period in 2009. The Company’s gross profit in the first quarter of 2010 decreased by $1.0 million compared to the same quarter in 2009. Gross profit for the first quarter 2010 was $1.3 million or 9% of sales compared to $2.4 million for the same quarter 2009. This reduction of gross profit was caused by lower margins from higher costs of goods sold recorded for several projects in their early stages during the first quarter of 2010 as the costs are normally higher at the early stage, write-off of aged work-in-process and recording of project loss on certain projects. The Company anticipates that gross profit will increase during 2010 as a result of higher revenue and lower costs of revenues on continuing projects leading to higher margins. Another factor for the decrease in net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to 2009 was the recording of bad debt expenses of $222,290 in the first quarter of 2010 compared to none in the first quarter of 2009. Net loss attributable to Cavico Corp. for the first quarter of 2010 was $1.5 million, or ($0.49) per share, compared to a net income of $140,204 or $0.05 per share in the same period of 2009.

Financial Position

The Company’s cash balance as of March 31, 2010 was $3.3 million as compared to $2.4 million at December 31, 2009, accounts receivable of $15.9 million and current work in progress of $29.7 million. Total current liabilities were $99.3 million, which included short-term construction loans and advances from our customers. As of March 31, 2010, total shareholders’ equity was $13.3 million.

As of March 31, 2010, Cavico had a loan balance of $68.0 million with interest rates ranging from 10.5% to 18.0% and recorded $1.3 million of interest expense in the first quarter of 2010. The Company would like to repay outstanding debt and lower interest expense in 2010.

Backlog

The Company’s backlog as of March 31, 2010 was $314.2 million compared to $273.5 million (excluding Cavico Mining) recorded in the fourth quarter 2009. The backlog amount at March 31, 2010 is derived from the end of the fourth quarter backlog minus work completed plus new contracts signed during the first quarter of 2010. Cavico will continue to provide periodic updates when additional major contracts are confirmed.

2010 Guidance Update

Mr. Bui reaffirms his comments regarding forward-looking guidance, "We continue to see our growth in the first quarter from the level we reported in the fourth quarter of the prior year. As a result and based upon our current 2010 operating activities and backlog, we expect our total revenues, including Cavico Mining, for 2010 to be in the range of $82 million to $86 million, which is approximately 30% growth and we estimate net income will be in the range of $1.1 million to $1.5 million. Once again, we anticipate that the growth will be driven by existing and new operations managed by the Company and expect that the increases in our mining and construction operations will be led by the growth and development of the Vietnamese economy.”
