      Distributing Company Reports Fully Diluted Earnings Per Share of $2.13
      for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2017</b></font>
    </p>
    <p>
      OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 18, 2018--AMCON Distributing
      Company (&#8220;AMCON&#8221;) (NYSE MKT:DIT), an Omaha, Nebraska based consumer
      products company is pleased to announce fully diluted earnings per share
      of $2.13 on net income available to common shareholders of $1.5 million
      for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2017.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;We are pleased with our start to fiscal 2018. Our business philosophy
      is centered on customer service and reliability which enables us to
      compete in a challenging environment. We expect to continue to operate
      the enterprise with a view toward sustained capital expenditures. This
      investment is necessary to maintain and enhance our strong competitive
      position in light of current operating conditions,&#8221; said Christopher H.
      Atayan, AMCON&#8217;s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. He further noted,
      &#8220;As a leader in the convenience distribution industry, AMCON is actively
      seeking acquisitions in the convenience distribution and foodservice
      industries that can benefit from our extensive platform of services.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      For the first fiscal quarter, the Wholesale Distribution Segment
      reported revenues of $309.2 million and operating income of $3.2
      million. Our Retail Health Food Segment reported revenues of $6.3
      million and an operating loss of $0.5 million.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Foodservice category sales are growing industry wide. We are among the
      leaders in program development and strive to continue to enhance our
      capabilities in this category,&#8221; said Kathleen M. Evans, President of
      AMCON&#8217;s Wholesale Distribution Segment.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;We opened our second store in the Lakeland, Florida market early in
      fiscal 2018 which has been well received,&#8221; said Clifford Ginn, President
      of AMCON&#8217;s Retail Health Food Segment. &#8220;We will continue to invest in
      brand reimaging, social media, new stores, store remodeling, and
      marketing as we seek to address the competitive challenges we face in
      the industry. Our Midwestern markets operate in a highly challenging
      environment.&#8221;
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;We closed the December 31, 2017 quarter with shareholders&#8217; equity of
      $70.5 million and consolidated debt of $15.6 million,&#8221; said Andrew C.
      Plummer, AMCON&#8217;s Chief Financial Officer. Plummer added, &#8220;During the
      first fiscal quarter, the Company benefitted approximately $0.9 million
      from the implementation of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act which was signed
      into law on December 22, 2017.&#160;This tax cut will facilitate our
      continued development in technology products for our internal and
      external customers in a rapidly changing environment. In addition, we
      have a commitment to investing in our facilities and transportation
      equipment to serve our long term strategic initiatives in foodservice.
      We continue to actively manage our working capital and liquidity which
      affords us the ability to invest in our businesses for the long-term
      which benefits our customers.&#8221;
    </p>
