New Concept Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: GBR), ( the “Company” or “NCE”) a Dallas-based oil and gas company, today reported a net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2019 of $2,320,000 or ($0.45) per share, compared to a net loss of $121,000 or ($0.02) per share for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

The Company reported a net loss of $2,335,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to net loss of $429,000 for the similar period in 2018.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded oil and gas revenues of $127,000 as compared to $167, 000 for the comparable period of 2018. The decrease was principally due to a decrease in the rate the Company received for the sale of its natural gas.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded oil and gas operating expenses of $2,461,000 as compared to $186,000 for the comparable period of 2018. In September 2019, the Company unsuccessfully drilled a well which resulted in a dry hole. As the well did not prove up the estimated probable and possible reserves, the Company had to deem the applicable reserve estimates as impaired. In the third quarter, the Company booked an impairment expense of $2,285,000 which represents a reduction of both the estimated probable and possible reserves as well as the cost of drilling the failed well.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, corporate general & administrative expenses were $92,000 as compared to $99,000 for the comparable periods in 2018.
