By Midnight Trader,  May 01, 2012, 08:32:39 AM EDT

Canadian oil and gas producer Talisman Energy Inc (TLM.TO) reported a first quarter profit on higher production of liquids from Southeast Asia and North American shales, but it cut capital spending plans again as gas prices remain weak, Reuters reports.

Reuters said the company earned $291 million, or 28 cents per share, compared with a net loss of $326 million, or 32 cents per share, a year ago. Earnings from operations rose more than 6% to $167 million, or 16 cents per share. Cash flow rose 5% to $851 million, or 83 cents per share.
