CALGARY, Alberta, June 1, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quattro Exploration and Production Ltd. (TSX-V: QXP) ("Quattro" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the filing of its first quarter 2015 financial statements, reporting CDN $0.01 per share earnings.

The Company has reported the following results for the 3 months ending March 31st, 2015:

Revenues $ 3,447,358
Net income from operations, $14.79 per boe "Net Back" $ 1,876,572
Net earnings, after tax of $0.01 per share $ 207,598
Cash and equivalents $ 9,103,050
Working capital $ 2,421,025
Net debt (excluding decommissioning liabilities & deferred taxes) $ 3,634,088

At March 31, 2015 the Company's exit production was 1,725 boe per day, despite having to absorb a challenging, period of facilities turn-a-rounds that limited average production in the 1st quarter to 1,410 boe per day, and the dramatic year over year commodity price adjustment, Quattro's low costs of operations at $10.17 per boe is a key factor that continues to provide the Company sustainable capacity to advance its business plan within the current market.

During the first 3 months of 2015, Quattro's cash-flow from operations was $1,292,886 and the Company's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) was $1,395,961. Although a non IFRS accounting term, the Company believes EBITDA provides further guidance of funds flowing from operations for Quattro and provides investors an opportunity to understand the Company's capacity to fund its operations.

"Quattro focused in the first quarter of 2015, on the rationalization of its operations, including optimization and remediation in its key areas of focus, north east British Columbia, east central Alberta and south and south west Saskatchewan," commented Leonard Van Betuw, President and CEO. "The volatility currently being experienced by the industry will take both patience and perseverance. The stakeholders of Quattro have recognized, that it is in these times that Quattro is poised to remain focused and execute on a range opportunities that were identified some time ago."

BOE presentation:

Barrel ("bbl") of oil equivalent ("boe") amounts may be misleading particularly if used in isolation. All boe conversions in this report are calculated using a conversion of six thousand cubic feet of natural gas to one equivalent barrel of oil (6 mcf=1 bbl) and is based on an energy conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the well head.
