Kevin J. Zugibe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Hudson Technologies commented, “Our second quarter results built upon our strong first quarter performance as we continued to benefit from our efforts to focus on our long term strategies for growing our refrigerant and reclamation businesses. The 2012 year has been favorably impacted to date by the significant increase in the sales price of R-22 refrigerant following the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) issuance in January 2012 of ‘No Action Assurance’ letters to producers and importers of R-22 that, until the EPA’s issuance of a final rule, limits the amount of R-22 that can be manufactured and/or imported in 2012 by approximately 45% from the amount allowed in 2011. While we cannot predict when a final rule will be issued, we currently anticipate that a final rule may not be issued until the end of this year or later.
