COMMENTS OF MICHAEL STEIN, CEO OF GENIE ENERGY
"Genie Energy is strategically refocusing on our core retail energy provider business, which has been consistently profitable
and where we see continued strong growth potential. On a consolidated basis, this will entail a substantial reduction in
oil and gas exploration expense going forward as we move closer to a pure play retail energy provider model.
"Genie Retail Energy attained the highest level of quarterly Adjusted EBITDA in the history of our retail business -
$12.8 million - highlighted by strong consumption and robust electricity margins. Full year
Adjusted EBITDA was $18.8 million, including the impact of $10.5
million in legal and regulatory related accruals.
"We are looking forward to building on our momentum in 2018 by executing on our growth strategy including organic meter
acquisition, expansion to new geographies and, when opportunities present themselves, strategic acquisitions. On the
international front, we are rolling out service in Great Britain while evaluating additional
opportunities."
*Adjusted EBITDA for all periods is a non-GAAP measure intended to provide useful information that supplements
the core operating results in accordance with GAAP of Genie Energy or the relevant segment. Please refer to the
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures at the end of this release for an explanation of Adjusted EBITDA and reconciliation

** Genie Energy's Afek Oil & Gas subsidiary accounts for its oil and gas exploration activities under
the "successful efforts" method of accounting. Under this method, acquisition costs, costs of drilling exploratory wells,
and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells are capitalized on the balance sheet as "Capitalized exploration costs – unproved
oil and gas property" pending determination of whether the well has found proved reserves. Exploration costs, other than
exploration drilling costs, are charged to expense in the statement of operations as "Exploration expense".
BALANCE SHEET AND CASH FLOW HIGHLIGHTS
At December 31, 2017, Genie Energy had $125.8 million in total
assets, including $31.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash (short and long
term). Liabilities totaled $58.7 million and working capital (current assets less current
liabilities) totaled $35.4 million.
Genie Energy's net cash provided by operating activities in 4Q17 was $5.9 million compared to
$3.9 million in the year ago quarter.
DIVIDEND ON GENIE ENERGY COMMON STOCK
Genie Energy's Board of Directors has declared a 4Q17 dividend of $0.075 per share of
Class A and Class B common stock with a record date of March 19, 2018. The dividend will be
paid on or about March 23, 2018. The distribution will be treated as an ordinary dividend for
income tax purposes.

Genie Retail Energy
Genie Retail Energy's customer base as measured in residential customer equivalents (RCEs) increased to 301,000 at
December 31, 2017 from 283,000 a year earlier, while meters served remained unchanged at
412,000. The year over year increase in RCE's reflects a shift to higher average consumption meters during the course of
2017 (including as a result of the acquisition of Mirabito Natural Gas, a commercial supplier that contributed 11,300 gas RCE's
and 970 gas meters at December 31, 2017). Sequentially, RCEs and meters served decreased from
325,000 and 446,000, respectively, at September 30, 2017, reflecting a strategic pullback from
customer acquisition activity in certain territories.

Gross meter acquisitions in 4Q17 increased to 62,000 from 54,000 in the year ago quarter but decreased from 111,000 in
3Q18. Full year gross meter acquisitions were 355,000 compared to 235,000 in 2016. The increase reflects, in
part, meters added in 2017 by Town Square Energy following its acquisition in November 2016.
Reflective of the high rates of customer acquisition in recent quarters, GRE's average monthly customer churn increased to
6.9% in 4Q17 from 6.7% in the year ago quarter and was unchanged compared to the prior quarter. For the full year 2017, average
monthly churn increased to 6.6% from 6.0% in 2016.
Meters enrolled in offerings with fixed rate characteristics constituted approximately 39% of GRE's electric load during
December 2017 compared to 32% of GRE's load during December 2016 as
the customer mix has shifted towards fixed rate.
GRE generated all of Genie Energy's revenue and gross profit in 2017 and 2016.
GRE's revenue increased to $73.1 million in 4Q17 from $51.5
million in 4Q16. Full year 2017 revenue increased to $264.2 million from $212.1 million in 2016.
Revenue from electricity sales in 4Q17 increased to $58.5 million from $41.0 million primarily reflecting a 23.1% increase in kilowatt hours sold and a 16.0% increase in average
revenue per kilowatt hour sold. Kilowatt hours sold increased primarily as a result of a shift to higher average
consumption electricity meters as well as the increase in meters served.
Full year 2017 revenue from electricity sales increased to $222.2 million from $179.5 million on a 21.5% increase in kilowatt hours sold – primarily reflecting the Town Square Energy
acquisition, a shift to higher average consumption meters and higher average revenue per kilowatt hour sold.
Natural gas sales in 4Q17 increased to $14.1 million from $10.1
million in 4Q16 reflecting a 14.5% increase in therms sold and a 21.3% increase in average revenue per therm sold
reflecting higher natural gas commodity prices. The increase in therms sold reflected, in part, an increase in average
consumption per gas meter including the impact of the Mirabito Natural Gas acquisition.
Full year 2017 natural gas sales increased to $40.1 million from $31.0
million reflecting a 29.2% increase in average revenue per therm sold reflecting higher gas commodity prices while the
volume of gas sold was essentially unchanged.
GRE's gross profit in 4Q17 increased to $26.8 million from $14.6
million in 4Q16. The gross profit on electricity sales increased to $21.6 million from
$11.1 million primarily reflecting a 58.0% increase in gross profit per kilowatt sold. The
gross profit on natural gas sales increased to $4.8 million from $3.2
in 4Q16 as the increase in revenue per therm sold outpaced the increase in the underlying commodity cost.
Gross profit for full year 2017 increased to $85.5 million from $76.9
million in 2016 primarily reflecting the increase in kilowatt hours sold partially offset by weaker electricity gross
margins.
GRE's gross margin percentage increased to 36.6% in 4Q17 from 28.3% in 4Q16 as average revenue per kilowatt hour increased and
average unit cost of electricity was primarily unchanged, as well as improved margins on natural gas sales.
Full year 2017 gross margin percentage decreased to 32.4% from 36.3% in 2016 as the increases in average revenue per kilowatt
hour sold and average revenue per therm sold trailed the increases in the costs of their respective underlying commodities.
GRE's SG&A expense in 4Q17 increased to $14.1 million from $11.8
million in 4Q16 primarily due to increases in legal fees and compensation expense.
Full year 2017 SG&A expense increased to $68.4 million from $50.4
million in 2017 reflecting increased gross meter acquisitions and payroll expenses as well as an accrual of $5.4 million in 2017 for the settlement of class action lawsuits.
GRE's income from operations in 4Q17 increased to $12.2 million and Adjusted EBITDA increased to
$12.8 million from $2.7 million and $3.1
million, respectively, in 4Q16 primarily reflecting the increase in gross profit that was only partially offset by the
increased SG&A expense.
GRE's full year 2017 income from operations was $16.6 million and Adjusted EBITDA was
$18.8 million including the impact of $10.5 million in legal and
regulatory related accruals, compared to income from operations of $26.5 million and Adjusted
EBITDA of $27.3 million in 2016.
Genie Retail Energy – New York Regulatory Update
In December 2016, the New York State Public Service
Commission (NY PSC) issued an order prohibiting retail energy providers (REPs) in New York State
from serving customers enrolled in utility low-income assistance programs (low-income customers).
Challenges to the order filed by certain REPs and industry groups in New York State courts
delayed implementation, but ultimately the State courts upheld the order and on November 29, 2017,
the NY PSC instructed the utilities and REPs to begin implementation of the order.
GRE is complying with the NY PSC's low-income order and has begun the transfer of customers as required. The order will
require GRE's REPs to transfer customer accounts comprising approximately 21,000 meters, representing 12,000 RCEs, to their
respective incumbent utilities during the first half of 2018.
Separately, the NY PSC launched an evidentiary proceeding intended to provide a basis for additional restrictions on the REP
industry and competitive retail energy markets. Hearings were held in November and December of 2017, and the presiding
administrative law judges have established deadlines for initial and reply briefs from interested parties and the PSC,
respectively, later this spring.
Afek
Genie Energy announced in November that the preliminary analysis of results from Afek's Ness 10 exploratory well in
Northern Israel suggested that the well's target zone does not contain commercially producible
quantities of oil or natural gas. Afek suspended exploratory activities and no further drilling activity is planned at this
time. The company expects that any additional exploratory drilling in Northern Israel likely
would be underwritten at least in part by outside investors and would be contingent upon licensing and permitting.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2017 and 2016
In addition to disclosing financial results that are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States of America (GAAP), Genie Energy also disclosed for the full year and fourth
quarter of 2017, as well as for comparable periods, Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP measure. Generally, a non-GAAP financial
measure is a numerical measure of a company's performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes
amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance
with GAAP.
Genie Energy's measure of Adjusted EBITDA consists of gross profit less selling, general and administrative expense, research
and development expense, exploration expense and equity in the net loss of joint ventures, plus depreciation, amortization and
stock-based compensation (which are included in selling, general and administrative expense). Another way of calculating Adjusted
EBITDA is to start with income (loss) from operations and add depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, other
operating loss, net, and the write-off of capitalized exploration costs, and deduct the gain on consolidation of AMSO, LLC.
Management believes that Genie Energy's Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to both management and investors by
excluding certain expenses and gains that may not be indicative of Genie Energy's or the relevant segment's core operating
results. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, as a relevant indicator of core operational strengths in its
financial and operational decision making. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate operating performance in
relation to Genie Energy's competitors. Disclosure of this financial measure may be useful to investors in evaluating performance
and allows for greater transparency to the underlying supplemental information used by management in its financial and
operational decision-making. In addition, Genie Energy has historically reported Adjusted EBITDA and believes it is commonly used
by readers of financial information in assessing performance, therefore the inclusion of comparative numbers provides consistency
in financial reporting at this time.
Management refers to Adjusted EBITDA, as well as the GAAP measures gross profit, income (loss) from operations and net income
(loss), on a segment and/or consolidated level to facilitate internal and external comparisons to the segments' and Genie
Energy's historical operating results, in making operating decisions, for budget and planning purposes, and to form the basis
upon which management is compensated.
Although depreciation and amortization are considered operating costs under GAAP, they primarily represent the non-cash
current period allocation of costs associated with long-lived assets acquired or constructed in prior periods. While Genie Energy's oil and gas exploration business may be capital intensive, Genie Energy does not expect to
incur significant depreciation or depletion expense for the foreseeable future. Genie Energy's operating results exclusive of
depreciation and amortization is therefore a useful indicator of its current performance.
Stock-based compensation recognized by Genie Energy and other companies may not be comparable because of the various valuation
methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of types of awards that are permitted under GAAP. Stock-based compensation
is excluded from Genie Energy's calculation of Adjusted EBITDA because management believes this allows investors to make more
meaningful comparisons of the operating results of Genie Energy's core business with the results of other companies. However,
stock-based compensation will continue to be a significant expense for Genie Energy for the foreseeable future and an important
part of employees' compensation that impacts their performance.
In 2016, other operating loss, net, was net expense incurred from drilling and related operations for a water cooperative of
agricultural settlements in the Golan Heights. This project was a short-term water drilling project that was outside the scope of
Genie Energy's oil and gas exploration business. The other operating loss, net, was therefore excluded from Genie Energy's and
the relevant segment's core operating results.
The write-off of capitalized exploration costs, which is a component of income (loss) from operations, is also excluded from
the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The write-off of capitalized exploration costs is primarily dictated by events and
circumstances outside the control of management that trigger an impairment analysis. While there may be similar charges in other
periods, the nature and magnitude of these charges can fluctuate markedly and do not reflect the performance of Genie Energy's
continuing operations.
The gain on consolidation of AMSO, LLC, which is a component of income (loss) from operations, is excluded from the
calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Genie Energy's equity in the net loss of AMSO, LLC (a joint venture with Total until April 30, 2016) was included in Adjusted EBITDA because it was the result of ongoing operations of AMSO, LLC.
The gain on consolidation of AMSO, LLC was a non-routine result of Total's withdrawal from AMSO, LLC. The gain is not part of
Genie Energy's or the relevant segment's core operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or superior to, gross profit, income (loss) from
operations, cash flow from operating activities, net income (loss), basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share or other measures
of liquidity and financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Genie Energy's measurements of Adjusted
EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Following is the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is income (loss) from
operations for Genie Energy's reportable segments and net income (loss) for Genie Energy on a consolidated basis.
