Merger News

– Green Energy Resources remains in merger negotiations and plans to make a decision regarding the latest offer by the end of December. Discussions are ongoing with the coal and energy company looking to expand to large scale co-firing. The deal includes the coal company’s $75 million dollars in bookable hard coal reserve assets and approximately $20 million per year in current operating revenues. Green Energy Resources would be the surviving entity but cede senior executive positions as well as Board positions. Final negotiations center on a cash investment of several million dollars into the company that would include a massive stock buy back rather than a planned reverse split. The two companies have been in discussions since September and have already completed due diligence. Green Energy Resources and the coal energy company are planning to partner on developing pellet plants, coal and biomass blending, (eco-green coal), carbon trading, and large scale supply of wood biomass feedstock to US coal power generators.

Green Energy Resources has been an active merger target with the emergence of renewables in the United States under the new presidential administration. Green Energy offers potentially huge financial benefits to traditional fossil fuel power generators under a (cap n trade) System, including carbon credits, carbon offsets and federal funding through Bcap to name a few. Green Energy Resources turned down a bid earlier this year from an oil and gas company due to an insufficient cash infusion. Green Energy Resources CEO, Joseph Murray has indicated he will listen to any deal that makes sense, further develops green technologies and benefits stockholders.
