BLMC Biloxi Marsh Lands Corporation (CE)

Biloxi Marsh Lands Corporation (PINK SHEETS:BLMC) today announced its un-audited results for the quarter ending March 31, 2007. Due to the company�s earnings exceeding the revenue threshold tests under income tax regulations, the company was required to file its income tax returns using the accrual basis of tax accounting. In order to achieve consistency in reporting, effective January 1, 2007, the company has changed its method of financial reporting from the cash receipts and disbursements method of reporting to the accrual method of reporting. For comparative purposes, we have adjusted our Statement of Revenues and Expenses and Retained Earnings for Q1-2006 to reflect the accrual method of reporting. The change in our reporting method has no material effect on our cash flows. Total revenue for the quarter was $1,435,985 compared to accrual adjusted total revenue of $3,483,651 for the same period of 2006. During the first quarter of 2007 revenues from mineral royalties were $1,294,040 compared to accrual adjusted $3,236,076 for the same period of 2006. Meanwhile, expenses for the first quarter of 2007 were $219,348 compared to expenses of $240,053 for the prior year�s first quarter. Net earnings were $853,772 or $0.31 per share for the first quarter of 2007 compared to $2,238,885 or $0.81 for the same period of 2006. As of March 31, 2007 the combined gross daily production from 12 wells including those operated by TMR and Manti Jambi, Inc. was approximately 12.5 mmcf with net daily production accruing to the Company of approximately 1.6 mmcf. On March 31, 2007 TMR had several of its wells shut-in which negatively affected the foregoing production report. On April 15, 2006 the combined gross daily production from 16 wells including those operated by TMR and Manti Jambi, Inc. was approximately 21 mmcf with net daily production accruing to the Company of approximately 2.5 mmcf. As previously announced, the company�s partially owned subsidiary B & L Exploration, LLC (BLX), of which the company owns 75%, placed its first drilling program with The Manti Group. The drilling of the first well in this drilling program was originally scheduled to commence at the end of March, due to unanticipated delays drilling is now scheduled to commence by May 15, 2007. If the well is successful, BLX will have a 16.3% revenue interest in the production with the company having an additional 25% land owner�s royalty. It is anticipated that the well will be produced on a lease basis. �We are cognizant of the decline in our revenues caused by declining production rates. Due to the lack of drilling activity over the past year these declines were anticipated. The formation of BLX and the placement of the first drilling package is jumpstarting drilling and gives the company significant interest in newly drilled wells,� commented William B. Rudolf, President and Chief Executive Officer. Please refer to our website www.biloximarshlandscorp.com for investor information and historical press releases. Biloxi Marsh Lands Corporation owns approximately 90,000 acres of marsh lands located in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana.
