Market Advisors Research Issues Report on Toro Ventures With an Intermediate Term Range of $2.80 per Share

SEATTLE, WA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 05/20/08 -- Toro Ventures, Inc. (OTCBB: TORO) announced today that Market Advisors Research has issued a report on the company with an Intermediate Term Range of $2.80 per share.

An excerpt from the Report states, "The sharp rise in oil prices can be blamed on a growing difficulty to meet demand with new supplies. The world's population is expected to grow 50% to nine billion sometime by the middle of this decade. With that, the number of cars and trucks is projected to double in 30 years -- to more than 3 billion -- as developing nations rapidly modernize. All of that and more will require a lot more oil -- enough that oil consumption will jump by some 35% by the year 2030, according to the International Oil Agency, a leading global energy forecaster for the U.S. and other developed nations."

The Report continues, "Toro Ventures Inc. (OTCBB: TORO) is engaged in oil and gas exploration, development, and production through newly acquired properties with working interests in the production owned by established oil and gas companies, whether public or private. Toro Ventures recently entered into an LOI with Nitro Petroleum on the Crown Oil and Gas Lease in Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma. This Turnkey agreement provides that Toro acquires a 60% working interest in the Crown Oil and Gas leases.

"Toro Ventures is doing business in Oklahoma, which ranks as one of the major oil-producing states in the country, with annual production typically accounting for more than 3% of the total U.S. production in recent years. Three of the one hundred largest oil fields are located in Oklahoma. Toro seeks to build shareholder value by pursuing tangible projects or assets through contacts and relationships within the oil and gas sector as well as define larger projects with joint venture partners."

The report's final analysis, "Smart money was picking up the scent of what is believed to be a coming oil bonanza, buying into some oil companies and acquiring others, grabbing title to proven reserves around the world, and moving into any number of related investments. We have witnessed that and we believe it could be just the tip of the iceberg. By looking at the performance of oil companies over the past year or so, it is quite evident that the average investor has become almost completely oblivious of one of the world's most profitable businesses. Our price objective of $2.80 is based on today's price of $1.69."
