MAHWAH, N.J., April 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Heartland Bridge Capital, Inc., (OTCBB:HLBC.OB - News) announced that it has obtained stockholder approval to change the name of the Company to InterCore Energy, Inc.  This change reflects the Company's strategic decision to increase the emphasis of its investment, acquisition, and/or product development efforts in the energy sector.

To support its new strategic focus, the Company also announced a 9 for 1 forward split of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Board and stockholders believe that the forward split is in the Company's best interests, as the increase in shares available at a lower price in the marketplace may be more attractive to potential stockholders.

The name change and the forward split are expected to become effective in early May.

"Energy has always been an integral part of our focus and an obvious personal strength," said James F. Groelinger, InterCore's CEO and a highly reputed international energy expert.  "We have assembled an excellent portfolio of investments in the life sciences arena since our inception and look forward to maximizing their value to our shareholders.  For the longer term, though, we believe that a more intense focus under our new name on the many exciting opportunities in the energy sector will provide returns at least as attractive but with better marketplace understanding and response."
