New Canaan, CT- Tesoro Enterprises, Inc. announced today the publishing of its First Quarter 2012 Financial statements. The report included, among other things, the following summary of Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Results of Operations for the first quarter of 2012.
"Net Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $98,335 compared to $93,789 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $4,546. The increase in Net Sales is primarily attributable to the Net Sales from the second store. Revenues consist of ordinary sales activity, and are consistent with recent history.
Gross profit, generated primarily by FFC&T, for the period ended March 31, 2012 was $29,254 compared to $30,844 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $1,590. The decrease is primarily due to increases in material and labor costs. The increases in material and labor costs resulted in a reduction in Gross Margins to 30% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 33% for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Operating expense for the period ended March 31, 2012 was $53,691 compared to $156,701 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $103,010. The decrease, in operating expenses, is due to the elimination of start-up costs of Store #2 and reduced corporate overhead; and, consists primarily of general and administrative expenses.
Net loss for the period ended March 31, 2012 was $(28,956) compared to $(129,044) for the period ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $100,088. The primary contributor to the decrease in Net Loss was the decrease in operating expenses discussed above. Management expects improvement in net Income/ (Loss) as the weather improves, as Store #2 continues to gain market share in its new territory and the expansion of the company’s commercial flooring operations."
Henry Boucher, Company CEO said that the growth in Net Sales for Q1 '12 over Q1 '11 represents a 5% growth rate. He also noted a significant reduction in operating expense and net loss. The balance sheet has been strengthened by the conversion of a majority of debentures to common stock.

New Canaan, CT - Tesoro Enterprises, Inc. (TSNP:PK) today is releasing estimates of its first quarter 2012 financial performance. Net Sales for the three month ended March 31, 2012 were approximately $99,000 compared to $94,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase of $5,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 over the three months ended March 31, 2011 represents a 5.2% Net Sales improvement. Tesoro's CEO, Henry J. Boucher, said he was pleased with the Net Sales figure for the first quarter for several reasons. First, the first quarter is the weakest quarter for the company due to the winter slow down in construction activity in the Northeast; second, the improvement for 2012 over 2011 represents a reversal of the decrease in Net Sales for the same period from 2010 to 2011.
Mr. Boucher mentioned the recent conversion of debentures, leaving only $4,500 worth of Convertible Debentures on the books of the company, as a factor that should strengthen the up coming balance sheet. In addition, the company continues reduce its operating expenses, moving closer to profitability.

Henry Boucher, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tesoro, stated, “The site, supported by an aggressive online marketing campaign, should allow Tesoro to tap into the $20 Billion national floor covering market beyond the geographical boundaries of its current retail store operations.

New Canaan, CT- Tesoro Enterprises, Inc. ("TEI"), trading symbol TSNP, announced today the termination of its Reverse Merger ("RM") discussions with InPlays, Inc. Henry J. Boucher, TEI's CEO said that while the transaction with InPlays had merit, it did not provide the best option for the shareholders of TEI. Mr. Boucher cited the Company's revenue growth of its operating subsidiary, the upcoming release of its redesigned e-commerce web site and the potential to expand the retail operations as reasons to continue the strategy put forth by the company over the last two years.
Furthermore, Mr. Boucher is happy to inform the shareholders that TEI is in talks with private investors to receive non-toxic financing for its retail consortium expansion. The financing could be used to push revenue into the million dollar range. Many have worried about a possible RM and Management wishes to set shareholders at ease by stating that there is no RM needed or planned in the foreseeable future. TEI is a fiscally conservative company and because operating capital has been limited, it has chosen not to issue press releases that do not address the underlying concerns for shareholders or properly express the direction of the company. Lastly management is discussing a possible share retirement program in order to reduce the current share structure to facilitate shareholder return and better reflect fair market value.

Under the terms of the LOI, InPlays would acquire Tesoro Enterprises Inc., pursuant to the contemplated merger exchange agreement. Following the closing of the anticipated merger, InPlays would emerge as the surviving company with a name and symbol change to follow. The merger is subject to a number of conditions, including the signing of a definitive merger agreement by November 7, 2011.
Commenting on the potential merger, InPlays CEO Andrew Barwicki stated: "After significantly growing our business over the past few years, I strongly believe that the next logical step in our corporate development is having our stock quoted for sale in a public market. The greater access to capital and overall visibility afforded by operating as a publicly-traded organization should play an instrumental role in our ability to expand both through acquisition and the organic growth of our existing business."
Mr. Barwicki concluded, "My due diligence to date reveals strong evidence that a potential reverse merger with Tesoro represents a solid opportunity to take the InPlays business model to the next level. I look forward to updating the public on our progress with regard to pursuing this agreement in the very near future."
Tesoro CEO Bud Boucher added, "I believe that a merger with InPlays Sports Corp is the best option for our company. Upon a definitive merger agreement being signed, the Fashion Floor Covering and Tile Inc. stores will be spun off into a private company."

(“TEI”).
Immediately following the merger, Tesoro Enterprises entered in a share exchange agreement with Fashion Floor Covering and Tile, Inc., a Connecticut Corporation, whereby the sole stockholder of Fashion Floor received 500,000 shares of TEI restricted shares of common stock in exchange for all the outstanding shares of Fashion Floor. Fashion Floor is a full line; wood, carpet and tile retail dealer and installer of floor and wall covering materials.

Nearly half of the sales are to commercial customers, including apartment complexes and small office managers. Installation services are included in a majority of the sales. Fashion Floor Covering and Tile Inc revenues for the past several years have been flat at approximately $550,000 and the company has sustained small loses during this period.
