Timberline reported a consolidated net loss of $3.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018, including a $3.2 million write-off of the Company's investment in the Talapoosa property and other exploration expenditures of $21 thousand. The Company did not make the payment of $2 million which was required under the Talapoosa option agreement, and, therefore, the agreement was terminated per its terms on March 31, 2018 and the Company wrote off its entire investment in the project. As a result, the Company has refocused its exploration efforts on advancing its other Nevada projects.

Timberline's President and CEO, Steve Osterberg, said, ''We are refocusing our efforts on projects in the Battle Mountain-Eureka gold trend in Nevada, including our Windfall, Lookout Mountain and Oswego projects at our Eureka property and, as we recently announced, additional property interests in the Battle Mountain mining district that complement our existing projects and gain important, strategic partners. We appreciate the support shown by our shareholders as we pivot to advancing exploration programs in a known gold trend in Nevada and gaining strong, strategic partners.''
