(Note: the transcript includes a complete Q&A recap with written answers to all questions of the extensive Q&A session and includes both the questions that time allowed cover in the webcast plus all additional submitted questions).
Desert Control continued its positive momentum in the third quarter of 2024, achieving milestones in market expansion and pilot progress, as well as generating its first licensing revenues from the Middle East . The company has year to date more than doubled deployed LNC volume, revenue, and pipeline value compared to the same period in 2023. Based on the current development of pilots and sales pipeline supported by groundbreaking technological advances, the company anticipates multiple complete golf courses fully deployed in 2025, several phase 2 deployments in high-value agriculture in the United States , and growing revenue streams from the Middle East .
The past quarter saw strong results from pilots in agriculture and landscaping, supporting negotiations for larger commercial projects in the United States . Growing traction in the Middle East further strengthens the foundation for growth under the royalty-based licensed operator model. Further, the post-quarter event of securing commitment for the first full-scale golf course deployment under a new outcome-based business model marks an important milestone.
In the first nine months of 2024, Desert Control reached a record number of installations, increased LNC deployment volumes, and more than doubled LNC revenue compared to the previous year. These achievements highlight enhanced operational efficiency driven by the new prototype LNC production system, streamlined integration with irrigation systems, and insights gained from pilots and prior projects.
The growth in project volume and LNC deployment, combined with improved EBITDA figures, underscores the enhanced efficiency of operations. The ability to handle larger volumes at a reduced cost base positions Desert Control to maintain healthy margins as the company scales up.
With solid progress in the U.S. and Middle East , Desert Control is positioned to transition pilot projects into larger contracts and expand LNC adoption in the year ahead. The upcoming readiness of the next-generation LNC production system, solid R&D progress to expand LNC's impact on soil health, and strengthened partnerships will further strengthen the company's foundation and accelerate progress in bringing economical, scalable, and sustainable solutions for soil health and water conservation to global markets. Looking ahead, 2025 is set to be another year of significant breakthroughs for Desert Control.
