ENGLEWOOD, Colo, Dec. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- CET Environmental Services, Inc. (Amex: ENV) today announced that it has sold, for $12.5 million in cash, all of the stock in its water treatment subsidiary Water Quality Management Corporation (WQM) to Houston-based AquaSource, Inc., a subsidiary of Pittsburgh-based utility holding company DQE (NYSE: DQE). In addition to the $12.5 million in cash, additional consideration may be paid based on the final audit of working capital levels.

Davis, "The divestiture of the subsidiary at this valuation provides a significant and immediate value to shareholders and a substantial return on a two-year investment, and proceeds from the sale dramatically improve the capital structure of CET moving forward. The additional working capital and decrease in bank debt that result from this sale enhance our ability to operate profitably and allow the Company to take advantage of new opportunities for profitable growth."
