WestFire closed its strategic merger with Orion Oil and Gas Corporation ("Orion") effective June 30, 2011, which doubled the size of the Company. Consequently, the three months ended September 30, 2011 represent the first reporting period where results of the combined entity are presented.

This was 38 percent higher on a per share basis than    in the preceding quarter. For the nine month reporting period, the year-    over-year increase was 114 percent per share. --  Net income for the third quarter was $11.4 million ($0.14 per share).
