TTGL (.40) Titan Global Holdings Unveils Strategic Acquisition Plan for Titan Global Energy Group Division
Friday, June 06 2008 10:28 AM, EST

Business Wire    "US Press Releases "
DALLAS --(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Titan Global Holdings, Inc. ("Titan") (Pink Sheets: TTGL), a high-growth diversified holding company, today announced the launch of Titan Global Energy Group's acquisition plan in the petroleum distribution market segment. The plan is intended to capitalize on macro economic factors driving up the price of petroleum, as well as placing a financial strain on current petroleum distributors.
"We formed Titan Global Energy Group eleven months ago to capitalize on the dynamic and often lucrative energy sector," said Bryan Chance, President and Chief Executive Officer of Titan Global Holdings . "We have successfully completed and integrated our acquisition of Appalachian Oil Company ("Appco"), a leading petroleum distribution company in the Southeastern United States . Leveraging Appco's scale and management team expertise, and macro economic energy factors, we are poised to 'roll-up' petroleum distribution companies of various sizes and types in our adjacent markets."
Appco generated more than $400 Million in annual revenues in fiscal year 2007. Today, Appco distributes petroleum products to more than 160 dealers and owns and operates 56 convenience store locations. Appco has more than 550 employees and maintains long standing partnerships with strategic terminal operators and major oil companies.
Mr. Chance outlined the following macro economic energy factors contributing to Titan Energy Group's acquisition plan:
-- West Texas intermediate crude spot prices averaged $66 and $72
per barrel in 2006 and 2007, respectively. The Current spot
price for West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil is over $120 per
barrel.

-- The rising prices for crude oil in 2008 will result in higher
prices for all petroleum products. Regular-grade gasoline is
approaching $4 per gallon in 2008 in most markets, or $1.19
above the 2007 annual average price.

-- World oil consumption is projected to grow by 1.2 million
barrels per day (bbl/d) in 2008. As a result of the economic
slowdown and higher petroleum prices, United States
consumption of liquid fuels and other petroleum is expected to
decline by approximately 190,000 bbl/d in 2008.(1)
"The continued rising cost of petroleum products is straining and increasing the amount of working capital necessary to operate retail and wholesale petroleum operations," said Marty Anderson, President of Appalachian Oil Company . "While the consumers carry an increased burden for these rising costs of petroleum, small to intermediate sized independent distributors and operators of petroleum at retail and wholesale locations are experiencing great financial strain. We are in discussions with a number of such parties involving acquisition plans that would provide a significant gain for the Company, including for their ownership groups while providing Appco with a synergistic growth proposition. Appco has and will leverage its scale and relationships with major petroleum suppliers."
"Titan will continue to pursue sound organic and strategic transactions that add shareholder value," said David Marks, Chairman of Titan Global Holdings, Inc. "The timing and nature of this plan makes sense for Appco and, additionally, provides a robust channel for our corporate focus and planned growth in the production and distribution of biofuels."
