BOCA RATON, Fla., May 17, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- StockMarketNewsAlert.com issues New Trade Alert for O2Diesel Corporation (AMEX:OTD). According to Marco D'Alonzo at First Equity Group Inc., recent news flow from the company has been very positive. The company announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2007.

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company reported revenues of $181,713 as compared to revenues of $50,872 for the same period of 2006. The Company reported a net loss of $2.4 million, or ($0.03) per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 as compared with a net loss of $1.7 million (prior to the deemed dividend to preferred shareholders), or ($0.11) per share for the same period of 2006.

Alan Rae, Chief Executive Officer of O2Diesel, stated, "We continue to make tremendous strides to expand the global markets for O2Diesel's proprietary clean fuel technology. This is best illustrated in India where a highly successful large scale demonstration has led to the state wide role out of O2Diesel within the Indian state of Karnataka. As reported, the expansion started in the second quarter with a target in excess of 5,000 vehicles by the year end. Although we have seen a 360% increase in revenue for this reporting period related to our activities in Karnataka, the real value of this expansion activity will not be seen until the fourth quarter when we report our orders for the total annualized fuel usage. In addition, we fully expect that we will see an increase in activity in other global markets where we are starting to realize opportunities we have been developing for the last 12-18 months. We continue to work diligently to accelerate our growth plan which is fueled by worldwide demand for alternative clean fuel technologies and a growing global trend towards domestically produced alternative fuels.

"Over the next year we expect to accelerate our U.S. domestic expansion through the ProEco acquisition. Having access to ethanol in the U.S. on a cost plus basis rather than at market prices will enable our distributors to offer O2Diesel(TM) at a price that is competitive with ULSD. We believe this will remove the most significant barrier to widespread adoption of alternative fuels, price. Our experience indicates that removing this barrier opens up access to substantial and willing markets while simultaneously developing new proprietary markets for domestically produced fuel ethanol.

"In addition, our DOD verification process has been expanded in this reporting period at Nellis Air Force Base, where our latest spec fuel is now being tested both at a broader fleet level at the base as well as in a parallel test in a civilian bus fleet," further commented Mr. Rae.
