About this update from Amen Properties, Inc.
[{"type":"text","content":"\n \n Amen Properties, Inc. (Pink Sheets: AMEN) today announced financial \n results for its fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019. The Company posted \n quarterly revenue of $860 thousand and net income of $687 thousand. \n These results compare to revenue of $1.9 million and net income of $1.6 \n million for the same quarter last year. The decrease in Company revenue \n and earnings versus last year was caused primarily by declines in \n production and commodity prices.\n \n \n Amen also announced that the Company’s Board of Directors has approved \n the payment of a quarterly dividend of $20 per share, to be paid on June \n 28, 2019 to shareholders of record as of June 21, 2019.\n \n \n Finally, Amen reiterated that its Board has approved a plan whereby the \n Company will no longer hedge the revenue stream associated with its oil \n and gas royalties. “Shareholders of Amen need to understand that they \n hold an un-hedged long oil and gas position and should pursue their own \n hedging strategy if they are uncomfortable with that risk,” said Kris \n Oliver, Amen’s Chief Financial Officer.\n \n \n The Company’s 2019 first quarter report is available for viewing or \n download from the company’s web site – www.amenproperties.com.\n \n \n Cautionary Statement:\n \n \n This document contains forward-looking statements, which involve a \n number of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to \n differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking \n statements.
