The revenue jump, from $173,544 a year ago to $1.9 million this year, was due mostly to a sharp increase in oil sales, combining more production and the purchase of bigger stakes in various properties.
The biggest factors in the loss were a $667,707 increase in production costs and $773,475 in net interest expenses related to asset purchases using a line of credit. The company had no interest expenses in a year earlier.
A year ago, the company lost $11,847.
The company's shares recently moved from the over-the-counter bulletin board market to the Nasdaq global market.
The shares closed Wednesday at $10.67, down 2 cents.
