Activa Resources AG reports on the first half of 2012

- 64% increase in production revenues to EUR 2.41 million
- 692% increase in EBITDA to EUR 1.03 million

Bad Homburg, September 25th, 2012. Activa Resources AG, an independent oil
and gas company with operational knowhow in the development and efficient
exploitation of oil and natural gas properties, has published its 2012
interim report.

Activa Resources AG generated consolidated revenues of EUR 2.41 million
from the production of oil and natural gas during the first half of 2012
(2011 H1: EUR 1.47 million). This represents an increase of 64% and results
primarily from higher oil and gas production from Activa's three horizontal
wells at OSR-Halliday. The total direct costs of oil and gas operations
rose only 5% to EUR 0.64 million vs. EUR 0.61 million in H1 2011. As such
they were reduced from 41.5% to 26.9% of revenues. In 'Dollars per barrel
produced' they amount to USD 13.9. Profits before interest, taxes and
depreciation expenses (EBITDA) increased 692% to EUR 1.03 million (vs. EUR
0.13 million). EBIT improved from EUR -0.32 million to EUR 0.04 million. A
net loss of EUR 0.24 million (EUR 0.66 million in 2011) was recorded.

Activa's CEO Leigh A. Hooper explains: 'During the first half of the year
we have achieved significant growth in revenues and in the values
attributable to individual projects. Growth at OSR-Halliday is set to
continue - we will be drilling our fourth horizontal well there in Q4. Our
other main projects - Adams Ranch, Loma Field and Gray Waterflood will also
make stronger contributions to growth in 2013. Overall, we anticipate a
ramp up of our drilling activities next year. In addition, we have
developed two new prospects in Texas, which we are referred to as
Montgomery County and Hall's Bayou. Both fulfil our investment criteria:
strong development potential, low financial risk to Activa and high oil and
liquids content. We will also continue to dispose of non-core assets. On
the staffing front, we have made two important hires which will materially
expand our ability to generate and review prospects. We expect a
significant improvement in profitability in 2012 and are planning stronger
growth in 2013.'
