Camber Energy to Launch New Shareholder Communication Strategy Focused on Recently Acquired Lineal Star Holdings LLC Plan for the Future

August 7, 2019

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / August 7, 2019 / Camber Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: CEI) (“Camber” or the “Company”) based in Houston, Texas, announced today that the Company is launching a new shareholder communications program, focused on the strategy of Camber’s recently acquired subsidiary, Lineal Star Holdings LLC www.LinealStar.com, and its primary operating subsidiary, Lineal Industries, Inc., based in Pittsburgh, PA. The communication strategy will be built on an unwavering commitment to five elements we believe are essential to effective shareholder communications--consistency, clarity, candor, transparency, and trust.

The new strategy will initially feature our 64 year old primary operating subsidiary, Lineal Industries, Inc., as well as Lineal Star’s ongoing plans to grow by acquiring engineering, procurement and construction management companies (EPCM) as well as other companies complimentary to Lineal, and through internally generated organic growth from its current operations. Our focus will be on the transition of Camber from the highly volatile production of oil & gas, to providing midstream and downstream field services, turnarounds, maintenance and specialty construction services to top tier pipeline companies, public and private utilities, refineries and petrochemical facilities.

The Company also plans to launch a video series featuring Lineal Star executives, Project Managers, and our greatest asset, the employees of Lineal, some of whom have been with Lineal Industries for thirty or more years. The Company is currently interviewing investor relations firms experienced in media placement, in order to assist the Company with its new operational focus, its strengths, strategy and message, and to help the Company get its message into a variety of media platforms, including television, radio, print, social media and online news outlets.

Camber Energy Interim CEO Louis Schott commented, “Our enhanced communication strategy will be led by Lineal Star CEO, Tim Connolly, who has over 35 years of experience in public and private company investment, development and communication strategies. Connolly has appeared on numerous television and radio business news shows, and anchored his own nationally broadcast business-focused radio show, “Corporate Strategies with Tim Connolly”, for over 18 years. Tim Connolly’s unique skill set brings a distinct competitive advantage to Camber and our shareholders. We believe this will strengthen the effectiveness of our communication of the new Camber and Lineal Star business plan to the investment community.”

The Company also discloses that the previously disclosed non-binding Letter of Intent to purchase an EPCM, has been suspended as the seller wishes to see the outcome of the shareholder vote concerning the Company’s previously completed plan of merger entered into with Lineal and its former members. The Company anticipates revisiting the possibility of the transaction following the approval by the shareholders of the Company, of the issuance of shares of common stock to the former Lineal members and the terms of the Company’s previously completed plan of merger entered into with Lineal and its former members; however, there is no assurance such a transaction will occur. The Company and Lineal are continuing to focus on similar acquisitions of other companies.
