FieldPoint Petroleum Reports Record Results For Fiscal Year 2012 With Net Income Of $2,112,263

AUSTIN, Texas, March 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- FieldPoint Petroleum Corporation (AMEX: FPP) today announced financial results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. 

Ray Reaves, President and CEO of FieldPoint, stated, "The most significant events for FieldPoint in 2012 were certainly the completion of our first two wells in the Lusk Field of Lea County, New Mexico.  Both wells contributed to last year's earnings, and we now plan to drill a third well on this property that we expect could also contribute significantly to our long-term goal of increasing both reserves and production. We anticipate that this New Mexico project will have a very positive impact on 2013."

Revenues for 2012 increased 44% over the prior year, primarily as a result of increased oil production. Net income for 2012 increased 250% over 2011.

2012 Financial Highlights Compared to 2011

• Revenues increased to $10,402,889 from $7,235,860;
• Net Income increased to $2,112,263 from $602,564; and
• Earnings per share increased, basic to $0.26 from $0.08 and fully diluted to $0.25 from $0.08

Mr. Reaves continued, "While we are obviously very pleased with the financial performance for last year, for reasons beyond that we believe that 2012 was probably the most important year in our history.  Due to the success of our first major drilling project in the Lusk Field, we expect the drilling of our third well on that property to begin by mid-year.  Additionally, we continue to explore other acquisition and development opportunities that have potential for increasing reserves and production, and to that end, we plan to participate in the drilling of a development well in Goliad County, Texas. We plan to have a 10% working interest in the Riverdale Prospect, where drilling is expected to start in mid to late 2013. This project will target the Wilcox formation at a depth of 8,900 feet. I want to thank all of our shareholders for your continued support, and to express to you, once again, our commitment to focus on building shareholder value."
