SALT LAKE CITY--(Business Wire)--
Allied Resources, Inc. (OTCBB:ALOD) ("Allied"), an independent oil and gas
producer, posted year over year increases in net income and net revenue, despite
the tumultuous downward trend in energy prices throughout the later months of
2008.
Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 increased to $251,961
from $145,722 for the comparative period ended December 31, 2007, an increase of
73%.
Net revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 increased to
$1,216,908 from $915,595 for the comparative period ended December 31, 2007, an
increase of 33%.
"Although the comparative annual results are worthy of comment, near-term
results going forward are not expected to perform in the same way," commented
Ruairidh Campbell, Allied`s chief executive officer. "More encouraging is the
prospect of improving long-term results by purchasing distressed oil and natural
gas properties directly from banks and leasehold owners who are affected by the
current malaise. Our cash position enables us to consider properties today that
might otherwise have been unavailable to us before the fall in energy prices."
About Allied Resources, Inc.
Allied is involved in the exploration, development, production, and sale of oil
and natural gas derived from properties located in Calhoun and Ritchie Counties,
West Virginia and Goliad, Edwards and Jackson Counties, Texas. The company
currently realizes production from a total of 158 wells with non-operating
working interests ranging from 3% to 75%.
Allied intends to continue to purchase non-operated oil and natural gas
producing properties, to acquire oil and gas leases for operations, and to
implement improved production efficiencies on existing wells. The company`s
criteria for purchasing oil and natural gas producing properties are defined by
short-term return on investment and long-term revenue growth. The company`s
criteria for acquiring oil and natural gas leases are predicated on a proven
record of historical production and the potential for development.
Allied also intends to evaluate exploration opportunities that may exist within
the Marcellus Shale formation underlying its oil and natural gas interests in
Ritchie County, West Virginia. The Marcellus Shale has been identified under
much of Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, and West Virginia as being a major
reservoir for natural gas recovery. Outside drilling in Ritchie County has
indicated successful rates of recovery and the company`s own open-hole well logs
indicate a potentially productive Marcellus Shale zone at a depth of 6,000 feet.
