AMEN - Amen Properties Reports Results for First Quarter of 2020 and Announces Dividend

Amen Properties, Inc. (Pink Sheets: AMEN) today announced financial results for its fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020. The Company posted quarterly revenue of $407 thousand and a net loss of $(1.5) million. These results compare to revenue of $860 thousand and net income of $687 thousand for the same quarter last year. The Company’s decline in revenue and profitability for the quarter was driven by decreases in oil and gas production and commodity prices as well as losses recognized in connection with the sale of marketable securities.

Amen announced that the Company’s Board of Directors has approved the payment of a quarterly dividend of $10 per share, to be paid on June 30, 2020 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 23, 2020.

Finally, Amen reiterated that its Board has approved a plan whereby the Company will no longer hedge the revenue stream associated with its oil and gas royalties. “Shareholders of Amen need to understand that they hold an un-hedged long oil and gas position and should pursue their own hedging strategy if they are uncomfortable with that risk,” said Kris Oliver, Amen’s Chief Financial Officer.

The Company’s 2020 first quarter report is available for viewing or download from the company’s web site – www.amenproperties.com.
