WESTCHESTER, Ill., Sept. 2, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fenix Parts, Inc. (Nasdaq:FENX), a leading recycler and reseller of original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) automotive products, today announced second quarter pro forma revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015. On a pro forma basis, Fenix Parts generated second quarter revenue of approximately $27 million after intercompany eliminations. Fenix Parts’ combined pro forma revenues for the quarter include the revenues of its eight Founding Companies, which were privately owned and operated until their acquisition on May 18, 2015. Due to professional fees, corporate expenses and other acquisition and IPO-related costs incurred during the period, the company expects to report a loss for the second quarter.

Kent Robertson, CEO of Fenix Parts, said, “Following our IPO and related business combination in May, we have focused on building our management team, integrating the business in order to capture organic growth and realize synergies, and executing our expansion strategy. We currently have a strong senior team in place and are successfully integrating our eight founding companies. Our acquisition pipeline continues to grow and we were pleased to have recently announced our first acquisition – Ocean County Auto Wreckers, Inc. in Bayville, New Jersey. Fenix Parts remains well positioned to drive long-term value for our customers and shareholders.”

Second Quarter 10-Q Filing Update

As previously discussed, the company’s second quarter Form 10-Q is a complex filing that will include financial results for Fenix as the stand-alone accounting acquirer and its two accounting co-predecessors for the first six weeks of the second quarter, costs related to the IPO, the business combinations using preliminary purchase accounting fair market values as of May 18, and the post-combination consolidated results for Fenix Parts for the last six weeks of the quarter. Although significant progress has been made to complete the filing, due to the extensive process necessary to compile and review the large amount of data required, Fenix Parts now expects to file its second quarter Form 10-Q within the next two business days. The company expects to resolve the associated Nasdaq deficiency shortly following the filing of its second quarter Form 10-Q.
