ADA-ES Provides Year-End Update On Refined Coal Business

Finally, the Company is pleased to announce that Mr. Graham Mattison has joined the ADA management team as Vice President of Investor Relations. Mr. Mattison had previously followed ADA as a Senior Vice President and equity research analyst at Lazard Capital Markets. Having actively covered ADA for more than five years, Mr. Mattison brings an in-depth understanding of ADA’s multiple businesses, technologies and opportunities. We look forward to Mr. Mattison working to expand ADA’s investor relations efforts and help communicate the significant opportunities ahead for the Company.

Dr. Michael Durham, President and CEO of ADA, stated, “We are frustrated with the externalities that have slowed our RC business for the past 6 months. However, these delays have created the potential for significant upside for the RC business in that the final 12 uncommitted RC facilities are now available for installation on larger power plants utilizing our new M-45-PC™ technology for PC boilers.”
