HOUSTON, Aug. 14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TexCom, Inc. (OTC Pink: TEXC)(the "Company" or "TexCom"), an environmental services company serving the oil and gas industry, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2013. Financial Highlights for the second quarter 2013 compared to the second quarter 2012:

• Gross profit margin rose from 53% to 54%.
• Operating income increased 24% to $1.81 million from $1.46 million.
• Net income available to shareholders decreased from $1.23 million to $935,000.  In 2012, the company revalued its deferred income tax asset resulting from its net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs).  As a result, the company recognized $560,000 of income tax expense in the second quarter of 2013, compared to no expense for the second quarter of 2012. 
• Earnings per share on a fully diluted basis were $0.01, a decrease from $0.02.

Financial Highlights for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012:

• Revenues totaled $7.64 million, increasing 23% from $6.21 million.
• Gross profit margin rose from 52% to 53%.
• Operating income increased 44% to $3.21 million from $2.23 million

• Earnings per share of a fully diluted basis were $0.02, an increase from $0.01.

Prior to the third quarter of 2012, the Company valued its net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) at zero due to the uncertainty of generating future income to utilize the NOLs.  With the substantial improvement in operations, the Company revalued the NOLs and recorded the future benefit as an asset, and has been recognizing income tax expense since the third quarter of 2012.

"We achieved solid revenues, operating income, and net income during the second quarter of 2013.  The second well at the Atascosa County site has been drilled and completed and surface equipment facilities are being installed.  We expect that well to go into operation during the early part of the fourth quarter of 2013.  And as previously announced, we formed TexCom Environmental Services, LLC ("TES") and TES acquired the business and assets of ALMAC Environmental Services, Inc. and ALMAC, LLC, one of the leading providers of NORM (naturally occurring radioactive material) consulting, risk assessment, training, and decontamination services in the world.  With these additions, TexCom, Inc. is poised for continued growth," stated Bob May, CEO and President.
