Universal Bioenergy Inc., (OTCQB: UBRG), a publicly traded independent diversified energy company, that markets and distributes natural gas, petroleum, coal and electricity, is moving forward in its discussions and contract negotiations for a joint venture with a company to develop a global energy order fulfillment platform. The companies plan to engage in the physical and financial purchasing, sales and trading of natural gas, electricity, petroleum and related energy commodities to generate greater revenues and profits.
Universal Bioenergy is forecasting that an estimated $100 million in annual revenues could be generated through the joint venture from the financial trading from the energy contracts. The estimated profits from the joint venture are in the 2% to 20% range, or an estimated $2 to $20 million annually. Final contract negotiations are ongoing to finalize the terms of the joint venture and a definitive agreement.
Due to recent changes in part to the sweeping Dodd-Frank financial regulatory overhaul and the Volcker Rule, the Company is positioning itself to take financial advantage of the new opportunities in the marketplace for financial trading of energy contracts.
The proposed joint venture partners are positioning themselves to purchase and sell energy commodities in North America, Europe and the global energy markets. The parties plan to utilize highly experienced energy traders to engage in the physical and financial trading of natural gas, electricity, petroleum, diesel fuel and jet fuel. The venture partners plan to purchase and trade energy contracts on the spot and long-term market, and trade financial futures and power contracts to generate higher revenues, margins and earnings.
To hedge against the associated risks of physical and financial trading, the parties may use financial derivatives and other contracts. The portfolio of energy contracts will emphasize the purchasing of energy product commodities such as natural gas, petroleum, diesel fuel, jet fuel and electricity. The proposed alliance allows Universal Bioenergy to access a relationship with an energy trading company that has its own established energy order fulfillment platform.
Universal's Senior Vice President Solomon Ali says, "We feel very strong about this proposed joint venture in the buying and selling of energy commodities and futures contracts. The energy commodities order fulfillment platform has already been designed, built and is being tested. We are forecasting $100 million in annual revenues for the Company from this joint venture. The potential earnings for Universal is estimated at $2 to $20 million annually. Although we cannot guarantee an actual valuation, according to industry valuation standards using average P/E ratios from Standard & Poor's, at a multiple of 15 times earnings, a valuation of $30 to $300 million dollars is an estimate of the potential additional market value of the earnings to Universal. We feel this should have a very positive impact on our stock price and our shareholders."
The final terms and conditions of the transaction will be determined in the definitive agreement, which is subject to, among other things, final due diligence by Universal Bioenergy, and other conditions, and approvals by both companies' management and board of directors. No assurances can be provided that a definitive agreement will be executed.
