On March 1, 2012, the Company announced delays in drilling its Tamandua #1 well and claimed that further analysis of the well's C7 and C9 formations would be announced as soon as they became available. On this news, Houston American securities fell more than 35 percent.

On these revelations, Houston American shares declined $1.24 or more than 35.5%, to close at $2.25 on April 19, 2012.
