New Concept Energy, Inc. is screened out under 3 exclusion reasons spanning 2 issue categories.
This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. It is a statement of values.
New Concept Energy, Inc. is an oil and gas exploration and production company. Its primary business activity is the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and natural gas properties, primarily in Texas. The company's operations are directly engaged in the upstream fossil fuel sector, deriving its revenue from the extraction of oil and gas resources.
The evidence gathered pertains broadly to the fossil fuel industry's historical awareness of climate impacts and ongoing expansion plans, but does not contain specific, material details about New Concept Energy's own operations, scale, or conduct. Public filings indicate the company is a small, non-operating working interest owner in a limited number of wells. A specific narrative detailing the company's exclusion under a more precise code—such as `fossil_fuels_upstream`—cannot be constructed from the provided generic industry sources. Further research is required to determine the materiality and specifics of its fossil fuel activities.
New Concept Energy, Inc. is a fully integrated oil and gas producer, engaged in the exploration, production, and operation of wells, primarily in Ohio and West Virginia. The company has been focused on energy resource development since 2003, deriving its core business revenue from fossil fuel extraction and production.
The company has been subject to regulatory scrutiny by the SEC. In 2012, the Commission highlighted that third-party payments made by the company created a risk that funds could be used for illicit purposes such as bribery or embezzlement. This enforcement action points to governance and control failures within its operations.
New Concept Energy, Inc. is an oil and gas exploration and production company operating primarily in Texas. Its core business activity is the extraction of fossil fuels, a process inherently linked to environmental damage through the risk of toxic contamination, spills, and ecological disruption. The company’s operations center on the development and management of oil and gas properties.
Available search results return generic information about the environmental impacts of oil and gas development, such as toxic components in crude oil causing mortality in plants and animals, soil contamination, and long-term pollution crises. However, specific, documented incidents of environmental destruction directly attributable to New Concept Energy’s operations—such as major spill events, EPA Superfund site designations, or significant enforcement actions—are not provided in the gathered evidence. A thorough review of regulatory databases (e.g., EPA Enforcement and Compliance History Online) and violation trackers is required to establish a material, company-specific record of ecological damage for this exclusion.

The Naughty List
A digest of changes to our exclusion list — new additions, removals, and the evidence behind them. We review the list continuously as new evidence surfaces.
Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.
