I just posted an update profile on EPM to the website.
If you want a SUPER SAFE DIVIDEND, check out their Perpetual Non-Convertible 8.5% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock (EPM.PA). It is trading slightly above par, so the current yield is ~8.25%.
EPM is DEBT FREE. They are on a fiscal year that ends June 30. Production should increase by ~30% YOY this fiscal year.
My valuation of the common stock has increased $1.50 to $7.75, so the common stock does have some near-term upside.

Re: Evolution Petroleum (EPM and EPM.PA)
This is a surprise. Just a reminder that buying redeemable pfd stock above par is an added risk. Getting pfd out of the way will increase value of the common stock. - Dan
HOUSTON, Oct. 04, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Evolution Petroleum Corporation (NYSE MKT: EPM) today announced the redemption of all of the outstanding shares of its 8.5% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock", CUSIP: 30049A206; NYSE: EPM.A). The Preferred Stock will be redeemed on November 14, 2016 at $25.00 per share, plus all accumulated and unpaid distributions from October 31, 2016 (the last dividend payment date before the redemption date) through the redemption date, for an aggregate redemption price of approximately $25.082639 per share.
The total redemption amount of approximately $8 million will be funded with cash on hand. With working capital of $28.6 million as of June 30, 2016, the Company will have substantial liquidity after the redemption. Further, with the Company's existing undrawn credit facility, we have access to capital at a much lower cost, should we need it.
Notice of the redemption will be mailed to the holders of the Preferred Stock next week. The redemption and paying agent for the redemption is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "Agent"). For more information, holders of the Preferred Stock may contact the Agent at 917-262-2378 or write to the Agent at 17 Battery Place - 8th Floor, New York, NY 10004, Attn: Corporate Actions Department.
Evolution today also declared a monthly cash dividend on its perpetual non-convertible 8.5% Series A Cumulative Preferred Stock. The dividend is for the month of October 2016 and is payable on October 31, 2016 to holders of record at the close of business on October 14, 2016. The payment will be 1/12th of the 8.5% annualized amount, or approximately $0.177083 per share, based on the $25.00 per share liquidation preference. We expect preferred stock dividends will be treated as qualified dividend for income tax purposes.
