CORONA, Calif. , Aug. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Saleen Automotive, Inc. (OTCQB: SLNN) (the "Company"), an American specialty manufacturer of high performance vehicles, technical performance parts, lifestyle accessories and apparel, is pleased to provide the market with its first quarter financials for the period ending June 30, 2013 . The full 10Q filing is available on the SEC's website http://1.usa.gov/1cNCnmi
First quarter revenue increased to $909,561 from $78,499 recorded in the comparable period in 2012, an increase of 1058%. Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $2,443,244 , which included $365,547 of one-time expenses related to the reverse merger transaction and an increase in operating expense of $1,264,946 over the comparable period in 2012.

The proceeds of the capital raise are being used to fund operations, retire debt, and provide growth capital.

"We have worked diligently to provide compelling products for the automotive sector, to establish effective and elegant sales channels and to market our brand as aggressively as possible.
