Marketwired
Green Energy Live Inc. (OTCBB: GELV), a growing clean energy
company engaged in developing sustainable biomass-to-energy
conversion solutions for the U.S. livestock industry, reported
strong 2009 pro forma financial performance for wholly owned
subsidiary Comanche Livestock Exchange ("Comanche"). Comanche
generated a 12% increase in revenue for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2009 over the prior year, and positive EBITDA of
$105,435. Comanche's consistent performance in the fiscal years of
2009, 2008 and 2007 resulted in an average annual revenue of
$694,529 and generated EBITDA of $105,434, $138,845 and $52,114
respectively, an annual average of $98,798.
For the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,
Comanche generated revenues of $721,999 and $644,146, respectively,
an increase of $77,853 or 12%. For the twelve month periods ended
December 31, 2009 and 2008, Comanche generated net income of
$65,592 and $98,001, respectively, a decrease of $32,409 or 33%.
The decrease includes an interest charge of $11,622 related to the
acquisition note recorded in Comanche numbers due to business
combination accounting requirements. The rest of the net income
difference mainly came from higher depreciation in the 2009
statement which was also attributed to accounting requirements
related to the acquisition.
Green Energy Live acquired Comanche, a profitable Texas-based
provider of live animal auction and hauling services, in July 2009.
The wholly owned subsidiary has a 60-year track record of success
serving the United States beef and dairy industries. The
acquisition enhances Green Energy Live's ability to bring its clean
energy technology to market by providing ongoing revenue to support
technology development, livestock industry experience, contacts
with potential customers, and an established sales channel.
Green Energy Live is working to leverage its proprietary
gasification technology to develop on-site manure-to-electricity
conversion systems to convert animal waste into clean energy. The
technology is designed to enable America's livestock farmers and
ranchers to generate electricity for farm use as well as for sale
back to the grid, to reduce electricity and manure disposal costs,
and to protect the environment.
Karen Clark, President/CEO of Green Energy Live, commented: "In
spite of a tough overall economic climate, Green Energy Live's
subsidiary business was able to increase annual revenue 12%, remain
profitable, and continue the trend of positive earnings and EBITDA.
We are proud of Comanche's financial performance and see their
business as an integral part of our strategy for achieving growth
and market penetration for our clean energy technology."

acquisition, which includes Comanche's audited financial
