Profire Energy Expands Houston Operations

Company Leases 5,000-Foot Warehouse for Growing Operations in Texas, Expected to Double Region's Storage and Distribution Capacities

LINDON, Utah, June 13, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Profire Energy, Inc. (OTCBB:PFIE), a technology company which manufactures, installs and services burner management systems and other combustion management technologies for the oil and gas industry, today announced the signing of a lease agreement for a new warehousing and distribution center in Katy, Texas. The 5,000-foot facility is located near the I-10W/Energy Corridor, and is expected to facilitate greater storage and distribution capacities within the Texas region:

"Currently, our Utah facility serves as a product-distribution hub for most U.S. sales—including many of those from our Texas office," said Jay Fugal, Operations/HR manager at Profire. "However, as we continue to expand, it will be imperative that our regional offices store additional inventory levels to adequately support sales growth in their respective areas. By improving our regional capabilities, we can help ensure that our products are shipped quickly to meet the needs of our customers—wherever they are."

Profire originally opened a Houston location in January 2012 and has since experienced strong demand for the Company's products, prompting the Company move into a larger facility.

"About one-third of U.S. oil and gas production comes out of Texas," said Andrew Limpert, chief financial officer of Profire. "Our team in Texas is aware of the potential there, and they've worked very hard to form strategic relationships and grow our presence in the region. The office has become profitable even faster than expected, and as we make the investments necessary to execute our strategic growth plans, we expect to see increased sales and a larger presence in Texas in the coming years."
