Amen Properties, Inc. (Pink Sheets: AMEN) today announced financial results for its fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021. The Company posted quarterly revenue of $422 thousand and net income of $154 thousand. These results compare to revenue of $407 thousand and net income of $(1.5) million for the same quarter last year. The Company’s improvement in profitability was caused by excess depletion recorded in prior periods for some of the Company’s working interests and a loss of $(1.3) million recognized in 2020 as a result of the conversion of marketable securities.
Amen also announced that the Company’s Board of Directors has approved the payment of a quarterly dividend of $7.50 per share, to be paid on June 30, 2021 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 23, 2021.
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 2021 first quarter report is available for viewing or download from the company’s web site – www.amenproperties.com.
