This is the second target of the GeoBio Energy roll up strategy for acquiring profitable petroleum wholesale distribution and haulage companies in the Southwestern United States, and is expected to compliment GeoBio Energy’s first proposed target, a third generation fuel distributor serving customers in Utah, Arizona and Colorado, announced April 3, 2008. Within the next 12 months, GeoBio Energy intends to acquire 3 – 4 additional distributors, each offering positive synergies and combined total revenues in excess of $150+ million and with contributing positive EBITDA. The Letter Agreement requires the parties complete preliminary due diligence prior to entering a definitive agreement.
“This marks the second milestone toward the completion of several planned acquisitions of fuel distribution and haulage companies in the Southwestern United States,” said CEO, Ken Bennett.
About GeoBio Energy:
Through a vertical integration strategy GeoBio Energy intends to become a plant to pump solution in the quest for energy independence and a cleaner environment. The company’s business model emphasizes the acquisition of existing, profitable wholesale distribution and haulage companies, with the goal of increasing profitability through economies of scale and introducing available, alternative fuels to their customers. The company is working to develop and grow feed stocks for the production of low cost, alternative fuels that will not compete with acreage or resources dedicated to food crop production. GeoBio intends to focus on algae as a feedstock that, when produced on a commercial scale, has the potential to provide a low cost feedstock, non-competitive to food based sources, for the production of bio-fuel and offers a commercial scale solution for CO2 sequestration and other environmental challenges. |
