IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Universal Bioenergy Inc., (UBRG), a publicly traded independent diversified energy company, that markets natural gas, propane, and produces petroleum and coal, announced that it started preliminary discussions with several companies that have expressed an interest in acquiring an operating interest, or acquiring a significant equity stake in the Company.
The interest has come from companies that include the Company's creditors, investors and other firms. The Company has entertained preliminary discussions with these firms to determine the validity of the offers and the strength of the companies expressing an interest in a potential acquisition, or acquiring an operating interest in the Company.
Universal recently announced plans for 2013 to improve its financial performance, grow faster by more mergers and acquisitions, and to generate strong profits for the Company. Universal through NDR Energy Group, its subsidiary markets and distributes natural gas to 30 of the largest public utilities, electric power producers and local gas distribution companies that serve millions of commercial, industrial and residential customers throughout the country.
Universal's President Vince M. Guest says, "The Company has achieved some major growth in the last three years, and this has generated more interest from firms who see the potential growth in Universal's future. We are reviewing these inquiries to ascertain the nature of the interest and to determine the real level of strength of these offers. In the event we determine that an offer is serious and would benefit the Company, we would engage in more serious discussions, sign a Letter of Intent or Term Sheet from the offeror, and begin our preliminary due diligence prior to signing a definitive agreement. Some of the factors we will consider are the financial strength of the company making the offer, obtaining the best price for any acquisition or buyout, the potential financial benefit to our shareholders and the synergies of the acquiring company."
There can be no assurance that the preliminary discussions between Universal and these firms regarding their proposals will ultimately lead to a formal offer being made, or if a formal offer is made, that it will result in a completed transaction. Future announcements will be made as these discussions progress.

I gotta jump in here, Movie, with my opinion...
We actually DON'T KNOW if anyone has made any worthwhile offers, and I DO stress "WORTHWHILE"!
SIOR may have offers coming in every week, but unless it's an offer that is GOOD for SIOR, why would they even bother mentioning it.
If another company 'lowballs' an offer, I'd just laff and keep walking; and I wouldn't get my shldrs all worked up about it!
When an offer is good enuff, I'm sure we will be told about it, till then.... I can wait.

When this starts taking off and buyers have trouble finding available shares to pick up... well, I guess that means we WIN!

More NEWS just out!
IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 5, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Universal Bioenergy Inc., (UBRG), a publicly traded independent diversified energy company, that markets natural gas, propane, and produces petroleum and coal, announced today it is working with the management team of the Whitesburg Friday Branch Mine, in negotiations with several commodities brokers to sell them major quantities of thermal steam non-coking coal. The coal is slated for immediate export to China, in a transaction valued at an estimated $81.6 million over the next 12 months.
The brokers are requesting an order to purchase an initial estimated 100,0,000 tons of high grade thermal steam coal per month for the next twelve months, for foreign export to a company in China. The total estimated amount of coal to be delivered for the next twelve months is estimated at 1,200,000 tons, at an estimated $68.00 per ton based on the current spot market pricing.
Thermal/Steam non-coking coal is used as a primary source of energy for coal fired powered plant electric generation. Universal's Whitesburg Friday Branch Mine produces thermal steam coal in eastern Kentucky. The Whitesburg mining operations are the surface and high wall mining type, also known as opencast or open-cut mining, which is very economical when the coal seam is near the surface.
According to the American Coal Foundation, 9 out of every 10 tons of coal mined in the United States today is used to generate electricity, and more than half of the electricity used in this country is coal generated electricity. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) says, coal as a fuel source for electricity generation will increase 25% by 2035 in the United States. Overall, the EIA predicts that coal will remain the dominate fuel source for electricity generation, growing to about 11,000 terawatt hours from its current level of about 8,000.
Universal's President Vince M. Guest states, "We are very excited about this new transaction, as it allows us to open new doors for the global markets for our energy products. Our marketing team is working very closely with the management team of our Whitesburg Friday Branch Mine in Kentucky to complete the negotiations for this transaction. The potential revenues and earnings from the sale of coal for export to China and other countries opens up tremendous opportunities for us. Our plans include major sales of refined energy products, electric power and more strategic acquisitions in the energy industry, to increase our revenues and earnings."

Jazz,
10 minutes ago I could click the Press Release (New Acquisition) link on the page and see the PR about the .63 a share. Now when I press it, I see a password protected area kind of like the company knew it did wrong by making the info public on their page and attempted to reign it back in.
Good afternoon J!
and anyone else interested...
Take a look at UBRG today, there is a strong rumor just announced of a buyout @ .63 cents from this company:

IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 4, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Universal Bioenergy Inc., (OTCMarkets:UBRG.PK), a publicly traded independent diversified energy company, that markets and distributes natural gas, propane and coal, announced the Company's Board of Directors is reviewing proposals to reduce its debt, improve shareholder returns and drive the Company toward profitability.
The Company is considering various proposals as part of its plans for growth, positioning itself to be more attractive to institutional investors and in its plans to qualify for NASDAQ or other major stock exchange. The proposals under consideration include greatly reducing or eliminating some or all its debts and liabilities, consolidation and negotiations of some creditors Notes with more favorable terms, and converting some or all of the long debt and liabilities to shares of preferred stock for issuance to the various Note Holders and creditors. This should result in a significant improvement in the Company's Balance Sheet, reduce debt, lower operating costs, improve working capital, improve cash flow, increase profitability and shareholder returns.
Universal's Senior Vice President, Solomon Ali states, "We feel that by taking the actions to reduce our debts and liabilities, this will put us in a stronger position to invest in our future. Many of our existing Notes carry interest rates that are high, and that are above the current market rates. The benefit to the Company is to eliminate the outstanding debt and liabilities owed by the Company, reduce interest expenses, enhance our financial position and strengthen the Balance Sheet. It should also have a very positive affect on the price of our stock, increase its liquidity and improve the market value of the Company. By taking these actions, it should also improve our near term profitability, and allow us to aggressively accelerate our plans for more mergers and acquisitions to grow the Company. This should also be of great benefit to our shareholders."
