GBR New Concept Energy Inc

New Concept Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: GBR), (the “Company” or “NCE”) a Dallas-based oil and gas company, today reported a net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018 of $174,000 or ($0.07) per share, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $124,000 or ($0.06) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded oil and gas revenues of $173,000 as compared to $243,000 for the comparable period of 2017. The decrease was principally due to a decrease in the rate the Company received for the sale of its natural gas. In April 2018 a long term rate agreement expired and the price the Company received for its gas reverted to the existing market price which was less than the rate in the expired agreement.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded oil and gas operating expenses of $239,000 as compared to $256,000 for the comparable period of 2017. The decrease was due to overall decrease in general operating expenses.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, corporate general & administrative expenses were $108,000 as compared to $122,000 for the comparable periods in 2017. The decrease was due to a decrease in payroll expenses as well as other administrative costs.
