November 11, 2013 For Immediate Release WaterFurnace Renewable Energy, Inc. 3rd Quarter Results: Net Income up 51%

(U.S.$)
Fort Wayne, Indiana- WaterFurnace Renewable Energy, Inc. [WFI:TSX], the leading manufacturer of energy efficient heating and cooling solutions, today reported third quarter financial results. Sales revenue for the quarter increased 2.8% over the third quarter of 2012, from $29.5 million to $30.3 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 sales were $85.0 million, down 0.4% from sales of $85.3 million a year ago.
U.S. sales were up 1.4% for Q3 2013 versus the same period in 2012. Sales in Canada increased 17.1% year over year, showing early signs of recovery since the conclusion of the EcoENERGY federal rebate program for residential geothermal installations. International equipment sales excluding Canada increased 1.5% for Q3 year over year.
In the third quarter 2013, net income was $4.3 million, up $1.5 million from Q3 2012. Earnings per share increased
$0.11, from $0.24 in Q3 2012 to $0.35 in Q3 2013. For the nine months, net income was $2.9 million greater and earnings per share were up $0.23 year over year.
The Company refined its warranty provision methodology in the first quarter of 2013 to more accurately reflect each quarter's warranty costs and better represent the underlying transactions. This positively affected the first quarter with decreases of $1.2 million to cost of sales and the provision for warranty claims versus the old methodology. Offsetting this is a charge to earnings for the other three quarters of 2013, making the net effect nil for the year. The impact to
the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was an increase of $388 thousand in cost of sales. The Company increased gross profit percentages 3.9% and earnings per share by $0.13 compared to the third quarter of 2012 before this adjustment.
Operating expenses in Q3 2013 were down 8.8% versus the same period in 2012 as the Company benefited from continued cost reduction efforts and expense reductions enacted in 2012. Selling and marketing expenses were also down for the quarter and research and development expenses were down 2.3% versus prior year. The present value calculation of the warranty provision, which is sensitive to interest rates had a positive impact on finance expenses in the quarter.
"Our Q3 performance leaves us optimistic we're seeing signs of economic recovery on multiple fronts," said Tom Huntington, WaterFurnace President and CEO. "As rising consumer confidence continues to fuel the real estate and stock markets, consumer spending on upscale amenities to their homes, such as geothermal heat pumps, should follow. We are delighted with the market reception of our new variable capacity 7 Series residential products and we are anticipating a similar reception for our new commercial products in Q4."
The Company's Joint Venture in China, WaterFurnace Shenglong HVACR Climate Solutions, continued to modestly outperform expectations in both revenue and profit during the third quarter. While transition of the business progressed as expected, capital investment spending and engineering expenses planned for the first two quarters of the
year were instead incurred in Q3 with some additional spending to be incurred in Q4.
