FutureWorld (FWDG) Enters into LOI to Acquire Torchlight Energy |
|
FutureWorld Energy (OTCQB:FWDG), a U.S. Diversified Energy Holding Company formed to capitalize on the burgeoning markets in natural and alternative energy technologies globally, announced today that the Company has entered into a Letter of Intent to Acquire Torchlight Energy Inc.. Torchlight Energy's assets consists of 2.8 Million Tons of proven Coal reserves valued at $168M (at today's price of $60 per ton). We expect to close this acquisition shortly. Environmental consideration in managing these assets will be our outmost obligation. Company's rational in investing in a natural resource such as coal, could best be summarized as the following; Global Demand Since 2009, China has been the driving force in global coal markets. Coal imports in that country exploded during the past five years, jumping to a peak of 35 million metric tons per month in December 2012. That's a 1,500 percent increase from 2008 levels. Changes in technology and some ground-moving shifts in global consumption patterns could spell better days ahead for the coal industry in general. Also, more than 20 percent of India's 98 coal-fired power plants are running at critical levels of coal inventory, meaning less than seven days' worth of supply. Globally, the coal shortage has a real potential to cripple India's power sector, a fear that has prompted the country to import coal at a high and accelerating rate. With a ground breaking technology such as Clean-Coal, coal will reclaim its status as the other "Black Gold". Economics Coal prices peaked at $140 per metric ton back in 2008 when Chinese import demand began to surge. But today thermal coal has fallen back to half that level, currently trading around $60 per metric ton on average globally. And with an average mining cost of $42 per metric ton, we believe the fundamentals are in place to profit from the surging coal prices globally based on exceeding demand from China and India alone. Government Loan-Guarantee The Department Of Energy has finalized $8 Billion in loan-guarantee solicitation for "advanced" fossil-fuel projects that "avoid, reduce or sequester" carbon emissions. EPA has pinned the success of its rules cutting carbon emissions from the nation's coal-fired power plants on technology that captures carbon, nicknamed "clean-coal" technology. FutureWorld Energy will be applying for this loan guarantee in 2014 in a joint venture with our technology partners. This will be our first of many acquisitions. We are working on others in next few months.
