MELBOURNE, FL--(Marketwired - Nov 30, 2015) - Oakridge Global Energy Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB: OGES) is pleased to announce its third-quarter results for the three months ended September 30, 2015, during which the company made significant advances on its new manufacturing facility.
Total company assets for the third quarter of 2015 exceed USD$76.0 million, while liabilities are reported at slightly more than $2.75 million. Over the course of the next 18 months Oakridge plans to continue to strengthen its balance sheet, and ramp-up and install more than 2.6 gigawatt-hours of production capacity of U.S. manufacturing of electrodes, cells and batteries in its facilities located in the Brevard County, Florida area, known as the Space Coast.
"During the process of restructuring this business we had the opportunity to purchase a major supply of equipment and have continued to develop I/P in the battery space," says Oakridge executive chairman and CEO, Steve Barber. "We are very pleased with the third-quarter results and expect the fourth-quarter results to be even better. Our business plan is simple; we develop, manufacture and sell products. I know it's a bit old fashioned, but we are in the business of manufacturing."

Notably, in the third quarter, Barber has, through the majority ownership of Oakridge by Precept Fund Management SPC ("Precept"), funded the creation of a major full-scale manufacturing facility for Oakridge in Brevard County, Florida, in Melbourne and Palm Bay, which greatly contributes to the company's current strengthened position in the broader battery industry.
"Our third-quarter results reflect the significant investment that Precept has made into this exciting business," says Barber. "From development of products to purchase of manufacturing equipment, this business is now fully operational and poised for growth."
