Nesscap Energy Inc. Reports First Quarter Financial Results and Notice of Annual Meeting

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA--(Marketwire - May 25, 2012) - Nesscap Energy Inc. ("Nesscap") (TSX VENTURE:NCE), a global leader in research, development and manufacturing of ultracapacitor products, today reported its financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2012. Beginning with this quarter, the Company has changed its reporting currency to US dollars.

Sales for the three month period decreased 26% to $2.9 million (USD), compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily due to completion in the prior period of a series of orders from one of the Company's largest customers. It is expected that these revenues will be replaced by other orders during the remainder of the current year. Net loss for the quarter was $1.9 million or $0.01 per ordinary share compared to a loss of $2.7 million or $0.02 per ordinary share for the same period in 2011. The Company had cash and cash equivalents equal to $2.5 million and working capital of $14.5 million at the end of the quarter.

"We anticipate sales to increase throughout the year as a result of new initiatives, additional sales and marketing resources, and upcoming product releases from customers who have recently tested our products," said Dennis Orwig, Chief Executive Officer of Nesscap Energy Inc. "Awareness and interest in ultracaps continue to grow throughout the world and Nesscap has a strong reputation to attract the attention of potential customers."

During the quarter, the Company completed its external equity financing of $20 million from Open Joint Stock Company Rusnano, in Russia, and Vardimco Enterprises Limited ("Vardimco"), an affiliate of I2BF Holdings Ltd., in the British Virgin Islands. The equity financing was formally completed, with final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange on January 12, 2012.
