Treaty Energy Corporation Reports Results for Second Quarter of 2013

As part of the Company's internal reorganization, the Company has begun to cut costs significantly. Compared to the same period last year (for the three months ended June 30) total operating expenses were cut to $694,254, down from $944,262, resulting in a 36% cut $259,050. A major on-going shareholder concern, general and administrative costs, has decreased from $653,045 for the three months ending June 30, 2012 to $495,969 for the three months ending June 30, 2013. These cuts were in large part due directly to greater managerial oversight and tighter operational controls instituted during this period.

Directly tied to this discussion, no managerial parties in the Company received a direct stock issuance during this period, calming investor concerns on the matter.

One large area of note pertains directly to the large recorded net loss of $3,659,221 during this quarter and merits greater explanation. A large portion of this loss is directly attributed to a gain (loss) on derivative liability valued at $2,942,956. As noted on page 18, this is directly attributed to non-issued shares and the differentials in price and "perceived fair market value" (i.e. current market value). With these shares being issued in November the loss will be recaptured by the end of the year and the liability will be eliminated. Excluding this derivative liability, total losses should be at $716,255 for the quarter, which is $277,431 less than the previous year. 

To reassure shareholders, Chief Executive Officer of Treaty Energy, Andrew V. Reid stated, "While the current financials look troubling, the Company underwent a large successful transition during this period, and actually shows a lot of change and promise upon closer inspection. It is unfortunate, but the Company had to record a loss this quarter in order to show positive gains in the third and fourth quarters. The Company has told shareholders over the last few months in communications that the second quarter would represent a transitionary period, whereas the third quarter and beyond would represent the successes of management's changes."
