New Concept Energy, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2015 Results
Dallas (May 14, 2015) — New Concept Energy, Inc. (NYSE MKT: GBR), ( the "Company" or "NCE") a Dallas-based oil and gas company, today reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $314,000 or $0.16 per share, compared to a net loss of $40,000 or $(0.02) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded oil and gas revenues of $172,000 as compared to $344,000 for the comparable period of 2014. The decrease in oil & gas revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $172,000. The average price was $46 per barrel during the first quarter of 2015 as compared to $93 per barrel in 2014. The company estimates that approximately $100,000 of the decrease was due to the price of oil. During the first quarter of 2015 there was unusual harsh weather in the areas where the Company maintains its wells. The weather severely hampered the Company's ability to repair and maintain well equipment as well as limited the pickups of oil from wells that were located in areas that were impossible to reach. The Company believes that the shortfall in revenue beyond the drop in price of oil were weather related.
The Company recorded revenues of $717,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 from its retirement property compared to $725,000 for the comparable period in 2014.
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded operating expenses of $1,279,000 as compared to $1,311,000 for the comparable period in 2014.
In 2011 the Company had a $10.3 million note receivable and determined that the financial condition of the debtor had deteriorated and there could be no assurance that the amount owed would or could be collected. At that time the company recorded a loss and established a reserve of $10.3 million. In 2013 and 2012 the Company recorded a gain from the partial recovery of the previously reserved note receivable of $1.6 million and $2.1 million respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 the company recorded an additional recovery of $738,000.
