CorEnergy Declares Common and Preferred Dividends and Schedules Earnings Release for First Quarter 2019

KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. (NYSE: CORR, CORRPrA) ("CorEnergy" or the "Company") announced today that its Board of Directors declared a first quarter 2019 dividend of $0.75 per share (or $3.00 per share annualized) for its common stock. The dividend is payable on May 31, 2019, to shareholders of record on May 17, 2019.

The Board of Directors also declared a cash dividend of $0.4609375 per depositary share for the Company’s 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. The preferred stock dividend, which equates to an annual dividend payment of $1.84375 per depositary share, is payable on May 31, 2019, to shareholders of record on May 17, 2019.

The Company simultaneously announced the adoption of an amendment to its Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”), pursuant to which the May 31, 2019 common stock dividend will be paid entirely in cash while CorEnergy continues to work with the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to resolve the Company’s expected inability to issue registered shares under the DRIP pursuant to its current shelf registration statement filed for that purpose. Such inability results exclusively from the ongoing refusal of the parent of the tenant of the Grand Isle Gathering System to provide the Company with certain financial statement information that CorEnergy is required to file with the SEC. The Company has taken steps to enforce the obligations of its tenant to provide the financial statement information, in accordance with the terms of its lease.
