IDT Energy Strikes Deal with BP to Supply Electricity and Gas

IDT Energy, a subsidiary of IDT Corporation (NYSE: IDT; IDT.C), today said that it has selected BP Energy as its preferred supplier of electricity and natural gas in New York State.

"We are very pleased to forge this strategic relationship with BP Energy,” said IDT Energy’s CEO Geoff Rochwarger. "This agreement enhances our ability to provide our customers with competitive rates and outstanding service throughout our New York service areas.”

Under the terms of the multi-year agreement, BP Energy will be the supplier of choice for IDT Energy - the largest residential energy supply company in New York state serving approximately 414,000 electric and gas meters.

"If this arrangement develops as we expect, it will enhance IDT’s liquidity by materially reducing the capital required to support our ESCO business,” said Bill Pereira, CFO of IDT Corporation. "That will give us greater flexibility to support some of our other business initiatives.”

IDT Energy’s ability to purchase electricity and natural gas under the agreement is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.
