profit in the year ending October 31, 2012, as compared to previous years.
The Company improved its 2012 performance compared to 2011 and

Revenue increased by 20% from 2011.
Gross Profit increased
Cash Flow Before Depletion and G&A increased by 23%
Oil Sales increased by 4% from 2011.
After G&A and all other costs including non-cash items such
as depletion and non-cash compensation, the Company recorded an overall loss of
$251,508 in 2012, versus an overall loss of $538,226 in 2011.
The Company received an average price of approx $108.71 per
barrel of oil sold during 2012. This price is higher than many North American
oil producers due to Lexaria s advantageous position that allows it to capture
an oil price that is closer to global Brent, than it is to West Texas
Intermediate pricing.
Lexaria enjoyed oil netbacks of as much as $63.22 (3rd
quarter) per barrel and a weighted average of $56.36 during the entire
year - higher than many companies of comparable size amongst its peer group.
Lexaria continues to believe this demonstrated efficient
production of assets on this small scale can be scaled-up as the Company
positions itself to maximize cash flows while exploring strategic alternatives.
The Company s complete 2012 financial statements have been
filed with the appropriate regulatory agencies both in Canada and in the USA.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release includes forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements which are not
historical facts are forward-looking statements. The Company makes
forward-looking public statements concerning its expected future financial
position, results of operations, cash flows, financing plans, business strategy,
products and services, competitive positions, growth opportunities, plans and
objectives of management for future operations, including statements that
include words such as "anticipate," "if," "believe," "plan," "estimate,"
"expect," "intend," "may," "could," "should," "will," and other similar
expressions are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are
estimates reflecting the Company's best judgment based upon current information
and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, and there can be no assurance
that other factors will not affect the accuracy of such forward-looking
statements. It is impossible to identify all such factors but they include and
are not limited to the existence of underground deposits of commercial
quantities of oil and gas; cessation or delays in exploration because of
mechanical, weather, operating, financial or other problems; capital
expenditures that are higher than anticipated; or exploration opportunities
being fewer than currently anticipated. There can be no assurance that road or
site conditions will be favourable for field work; no assurance that well
treatments will have any effect on oil or gas production; no assurance that oil
field interconnections will have any measurable impact on oil or gas production
or on field operations, and no assurance that the expected new well(s) will be
drilled or have any impact on the Company. There can be no assurance that
expected oil and gas production will actually materialize; and thus no assurance
that expected revenue will actually occur. There is no assurance the Company
will have sufficient funds to drill additional wells, or to complete
acquisitions or other business transactions. There is no assurance that any
future exploration will take place and no assurance that there are any likely
locations for Belmont Lake look-alike fields. Such forward looking statements
also include estimated cash flows, revenue and current and/or future rates of
production of oil and natural gas, which can and will fluctuate for a variety of
reasons; oil and gas reserve quantities produced by third parties; and
intentions to participate in future exploration drilling. Adverse weather
conditions can delay operations, impact production, and cause reductions in
revenue. The Company may not have sufficient expertise to thoroughly exploit its
oil and gas properties. The Company may not have sufficient funding to
thoroughly explore, drill or develop its properties. Access to capital, or lack
thereof, is a major risk. Current oil and gas production rates may not be
sustainable and targeted production rates may not occur. Factors which could
cause actual results to differ materially from those estimated by the Company
include, but are not limited to, government regulation, managing and maintaining
growth, the effect of adverse publicity, litigation, competition and other
factors which may be identified from time to time in the Company's public
announcements and filings. There is no assurance that the Company s revenue
growth is any indication of the potential of its Mississippi operations to
deliver additional growth through either proven reserve development or
potentially through exploration drilling on the Company s large land options, or
that oil production can be maintained at any particular rate.
The CNSX has not reviewed and does not accept responsibility
for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.
