Amen Properties Reports Results for Second Quarter of 2017 and Announces Dividend

DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Amen Properties, Inc. (OTC Pink: AMEN) today announced financial results
for its fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017. The Company posted quarterly
revenue of $606 thousand and net income of $49 thousand, or $0.92 per
diluted share. These results compare to revenue of $321 thousand and net
income of $(44) thousand, or $(0.83) per diluted share, for the same
quarter last year. The increases in revenue and profitability were
driven by rising commodity prices for oil and gas and significant losses
recognized in 2016 from the sale of marketable securities.

Amen also announced that the Company’s Board of Directors has approved
the payment of a quarterly dividend of $10 per share, to be paid on
September 29, 2017 to shareholders of record as of September 22, 2017.

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 Executive Officer.

The Company’s 2017 second quarter report is available for viewing or
