IPO Stock To Watch: Montauk Renewables
Founded in 1980, Pittsburgh-based Montauk is a renewable energy company specializing in the recovery and processing of biogas from landfills and other sources, for use as a fossil-fuel replacement. It develops, owns and runs renewable natural gas (RNG) projects.
Montauk uses these technologies to supply renewable fuel for the transportation and electrical power sectors. In July, it filed a provisional patent application pertaining to a combustion-based oxygen removal, condensate neutralization technology.
The energy leader earned 13 cents per share in the most recent quarter, much better than the 3-cent loss posted in the same quarter last year. Better yet, revenue more than doubled vs. the year-ago period, reaching an impressive $67.9 million.
