CDT Environmental Technology (Nasdaq: CDTG) Has Paved Its Path to Success In The Multi-Billion-Dollar China Wastewater Treatment Sector FDR Member, [CDT Environmental Technology Investment Holdings Limited Announces Strategic Cooperation Agreement with Subsidiary of Chinese State-Owned Construction Group]( Initial joint project in Fuzhou expected to generate an increase in revenue by more than 50% over next three years SHENZHEN, China, June 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CDT Environmental Technology Investment Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: CDTG) ("CDT"), a leading provider of waste treatment systems and services throughout China, announces the signing of a strategic cooperation agreement with a subsidiary of a large state-owned construction group in China. The parent company of the state-owned construction group is among the top 40 in ENR's 2023 ranking of the world's largest contractors. Under the terms of the agreement, the two parties will jointly plan and build a number of infrastructure and construction projects in Fuzhou New Area, involving water, sewage treatment, roads, and pipelines, with an estimated value of more than RMB 3 billion -- with an estimated 1 billion RMB net to CDT -- which will contribute to an expected increase in CDTâs revenue by more than 50% in the next 3-5 years. Fuzhou New Area is the 14th State-level new district in China, established in September 2015, and is expected to model a new path of urbanization and promote the integrated development of urban and rural areas. Fuzhou New Area is located in the coastal area of Fuzhou, which is the capital city of Fujian Province, with a planned area of 800 square kilometers and a current permanent population of 1.55 million. While leveraging each partyâs particular expertise, they will also share resources and improve project competitiveness and operational efficiency. As a local company, CDT has local network resources and market influence, while the large state-owned builder is positioned with the resources and financial strength to bid for the largest and most desirable projects throughout the region. The cooperation between the two sides is expected to produce synergies. "This is an important step for us in the domestic market and will also significantly help the infrastructure construction and economic development of Fuzhou New Area," said Yunwu Li, CDT CEO. âThis strategic cooperation will undoubtedly further enhance the market position of CDT. Investors and the market can expect the company to demonstrate synergistic value in more areas and create superior results. In addition to this cooperation, CDT and its partners will also cooperate on projects in other regions of China. As a company rooted in China, we remain committed to promoting the modernization of domestic infrastructure and continued economic prosperity through cooperation with top enterprises,â Mr. Li concluded. As a key development and construction area of Fuzhou City, the new district will become an important strategic market for CDT. Further opportunities exist for the collaboration to work on jointly in East China, which will continue to expand CDTâs market share in East China and significantly enhance the company's competitive positioning throughout its markets in China. As traders, it's imperative to understand that markets trade in both directions. Lately, even great stocks have gotten battered. [Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) at its current price is down over 20% since March.]( While day traders may have been scared off to exaggerate that weakness, savvy investors generally look at the decline in another wayâa second-chance investment opportunity at excellent levels. That may be the case for [CDT Environmental Technology (NASDAQ: CDTG), a thinly traded NASDAQ-listed company providing investors plenty of positives to feast on.]( Are we suggesting that CDTG is the same trading camp as AMD? Certainly not. But we are proposing that similar to them, trading at $4.00 yesterday, about 13% lower from its April 19th intraday debut, the weakness is overdone. As such, another second chance opportunity is born. [Like AMD is to the AI sector, many are starting to recognize that CDTG is a formidable player in serving China's enormous wastewater treatment market.]( By being ideally positioned and fortified, CDTG could have more than millions in its long-term revenue crosshairsâit could be billions. Justified being bullish!... Yes, that's a bullish assessment, but it's justified. [Since its 2012 inception, CDT Environmental Technology has continued to evolve into one of China's most prominent wastewater treatment companies with a mission to tackle the most challenging wastewater issues.]( That status is not unnoticed. CDTG shares received a bullish embrace from investors when it listed its shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market in Q2. The stock surged over 41% intraday to $4.61 on that day. Since then, the stock has been consolidating between, on average, the $3.50 - $4.00 level, with an average daily volume of 23.8k shares. That light volume is attributed to the fact that there are only about 3.27 million shares in the trading float as of yesterday. And of those, over 69% are held by insiders. Perhaps the best news is that performance supports the case that the path of least resistance for CDTG shares may be higher. Here's why: [Full Year 2023 Financial Highlights (comparisons are with the 2022 year unless otherwise noted):]( ⢠Revenues increased to $34.2 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 18.6%
⢠Gross profit rose to $11.4 million, or 33.3% of sales, representing a year-over-year increase of 11.0%
⢠Operating expenses were $2.8 million, or 8.2% of sales, representing a year-over-year decrease of $1.1 million, or 28.9%
⢠Net income of $7.0 million, or $0.81 per share, compared to $5.2 million, or $0.63 per share, representing a year-over-year increase of 34.6%
⢠Working capital of $24.2 million compared to $12.9 million Positive's are not slowing in 2024... [On May 22nd, CDT Environmental Technology Investment Holdings Limited announced the formation of a consortium with a wholly-owned subsidiary of a Fortune Global 500 company to jointly bid for a substantial sewage treatment plant project in Hengqin, China.]( CDT's partner subsidiary is a key participant in China's Belt and Road Initiative, with a multi-billion yuan asset base and an extensive portfolio of international projects underway, primarily in Asia and Africa. The total contracted value is estimated to be worth approximately 1.16 billion Yuan (USD $160 million) upon award. There's more to like. On May 2nd, the company [announced the granting of three patents from the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA), each in support of the Companyâs waste management methodologies and technology offerings. And before that, CDTG announced it had been awarded a contract valued at RMB 85 million (approximately $11.7 million).]( design and engineering work is underway with CDT and its partner, and the project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2025. [Based on news and capital structure, the setup looks ideal for the CDTG bulls.]( From what we've seen since its listing, the stock is getting plenty of support at the $3.50 level. That action has also been tightening the consolidation range, which may ultimately fuel an upside breakout. Poised to revolutionize rural wastewater treatment, that could happen sooner rather than later. A Massive Presence, and Growing... Remember, [CDTG has secured a spot in the China wastewater treatment market. They are not new to the business. For over a decade, the company has been instrumental in helping its customers navigate and solve the toughest wastewater challenges across industrial, commercial, and residential markets.]( Operating primarily in high-growth, high-need areas of rural China. CDTG's extensive network includes 11 subsidiaries across 9 provinces, underscoring its commitment, ability, and know-how in providing high-quality and reliable services to diverse communities. Here's proof: [CDTG's reputation is built on a long track record of successful projects.]( Highlights include completing more than 60 rural sewage treatment plants in Fujian, Jiangxi, and Liaoning provinces, with notable projects in Lianhua Town, Xiamen City, and Dongsheng Township, Shenyang City. These achievements reflect CDTG's strategic focus on leveraging technology to create resilient and sustainable solutions. Moreover, they are facilitating a contract and revenue growth trajectory to steepen in 2024. That's excellent news at the right time. [According to a report cited in its investor presentation, CDTG targets a market opportunity projected to reach approximately $29.9 billion by 2030.]( This factors in completed infrastructure enhancements. In other words, billions of dollars are in play for companies that can close the gap between existing facilities and the substantial unmet needs. Reports indicate that, as of 2021, only 28% of rural sewage in China was treated before discharge, highlighting a critical area for intervention and improvement. Factoring the unique value proposition of CDT Environmental Technology must also include valuing its competitive advantages. Unlike most, CDTG's advanced rural sewage treatment technologies, such as quick separation technology, offer cost-effective and decentralized treatment solutions. Moreover, CDTG's innovative septic tank treatment systems, including automated mobile and integrated fixed systems, provide practical and efficient alternatives to traditional methods, ensuring compliance with stringent government standards. These distinct features, which are client benefits, could be the primary value drivers for near- and long-term growth. Accruing Growth Drivers... On that note, they are already leveraging many. [Growth drivers include generating consistent value through a robust investment plan, benefiting from government and regulatory credibility, operational excellence, and economies of scale.]( This bodes well for the financial side of the equation. In fact, the combined strength of its operations, including expert management, is projected to push 2024 revenues to a range of $42.5 - $47 million, up from the $23.6 million, $28.8 million, and $34.2 million achieved in 2021, 2022, and 2023, respectively. Better still, they expect 2024 net income between $8.7 million and $10.2 million. The proceeds from its completed IPO are being utilized to reach that revenue target. Those dollars fund a high-quality R&D team that accrues and evaluates feedback from completed projects, allowing the team to refine technologies that enhance efficiency and effectiveness. That's important. More than satisfying clients, the engagements could increase its contract win rate and market share in the rural sewage treatment industry, with favorable reviews likely expediting its plans to leverage its proprietary technology and expand its presence in new geographic markets. Those reviews aren't from mom-and-pop clients, either. They are earned from long-term partnerships with state-owned companies at the central government level, enabling CDTG to capitalize on established networks and financial stability. [Those relationships also provide an accelerated pathway to expand its products and services offerings. The company said it aims to expand its septic tank treatment services to sewage collection stations and promote its fixed septic tank treatment systems for public toilets, particularly in service stations along remote highways.]( These initiatives align with the government's push for cost-effective and environmentally friendly solutions to manage sewage from public restrooms. A Ripe and Attractive Value Proposition... Combining CDTG's current position with its future direction, [the value proposition is ripe for investors wanting low-priced access to fast-growing companies in major markets.]( CDT Technology checks that box. In the massive Chinese market, CDT Environmental Technology has earned its growth by being a customer-centric company that distinguishes itself by delivering industry-leading compliance, reliability, and efficiency while ensuring affordability for its clients. Additionally, while we didn't get too personal about the company's leadership team- know this: CDTG's leadership team provides years of industry experience and expertise, with a proven track record in completed projects and a pipeline filled with promising ventures to keep its growth pace at an elevated level. That's not all. The team's strategic vision and disciplined capital allocation, including potential mergers and acquisitions, could further accelerate an ambitious action plan to grow significantly larger in multiple directions during the rest of 2024. Thus, the sum of CDTG assets, current business, and potential supports the initial premiseâ[at current prices, CDT Environmental Technology may be presenting a second chance opportunity at ground-floor prices that are simply too attractive to ignore.]( To Your Trading Success, Michael Reece Editor, Financial Driven Research Source Appendix: [( [( [( [ [( [( [( [20Revised.pdf]( [( © 2024 Financial Driven Research, All Rights Reserved.
