Exhibit 99.1
Truleum, Inc. Provides Update to Shareholders on Operations
Dear Shareholder,
As an early investor in Truleum, Inc., formerly known as Alpha Energy, Inc., we are excited to reconnect with you and share the significant progress we've made over the past three years. Since you first invested, we've undergone a major rebranding from Alpha Energy, Inc. to Truleum, Inc.
Our new brand image reflects our commitment to restoring trust and truth in the oil and gas industry. We invite you to visit our new website at https://truleum.com/ to see our updated logo and learn more about our mission and values.
Truleum is on a mission to save our independent oil and gas industry. We are restarting abandoned wells, rebuilding shattered communities, and creating new value, security, and stability for this once-and-future heartland industry of America.
We have already acquired a portfolio of proven, producing reserves, implemented programs to restore wells and create value, and started generating revenues from oil and gas production. We are now raising $2.5M to meet our CAPEX requirement to expand the development of reserves and achieve a 2x valuation multiple.
IMPORTANT: Over the past 18 months, we have established a solid infrastructure to start producing our own well bores, which will dramatically increase our reserves and cash flows. Our dedicated team, including reserve engineers, landmen, geologists, and environmental experts, have vetted three significant acquisitions. We anticipate these acquisitions will increase our reserves to over half a billion dollars and boost our daily production to nearly 2,000 barrels.
Looking ahead, we are gearing up for several exciting initiatives, including potential acquisitions and our strategic transition from the over-the-counter market to the NYSE: American Exchange. To achieve these milestones, we are eager to re-engage with you and keep you informed about our progress.
To ensure we have your most up-to-date contact information, please reply to this email or call us at (800) 819-0604 to confirm your current contact information. Your engagement is crucial as we move forward, and we want to ensure you stay informed about all our developments.
Please let us know if you would like to receive more detailed updates, including information about our acquisition targets and plans. Thank you for your continued support and belief in our mission. We look forward to connecting with you and sharing more about the exciting future of Truleum.
Best regards,
Jay Leaver, President
