Exhibit 99.1

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ENNIS, INC. REPORTS RESULTS

FOR THE FIRST QUARTER ENDED MAY 31, 2018

Midlothian, TX. June 25, 2018 -- Ennis, Inc. (the “Company"), (NYSE: EBF), today reported financial results for the first quarter ended May 31, 2018.  Highlights include:

Financial Overview

The Company’s revenues for the first quarter ended May 31, 2018 were $93.4 million compared to $94.6 million for the same quarter last year, a decrease of 1.3%.  Gross profit margin ("margin") was $30.2 million for the quarter, or 32.3%, as compared to $30.0 million, or 31.7% for the first quarter last year.  Net earnings for the quarter were $9.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share compared, to $7.8 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the first quarter last year.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

To provide important supplemental information to both management and investors regarding financial and business trends used in assessing its results of operations, from time to time the Company reports adjusted gross profit margin, adjusted earnings and adjusted diluted earnings per share, each of which is a non-GAAP financial measure.  To provide additional information, the Company also reports the non-GAAP financial measure of EBITDA (EBITDA is calculated as earnings from operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization).

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors as a supplement to reported GAAP financial information.  Management reviews these non-GAAP financial measures on a regular basis and uses them to evaluate and manage the performance of the Company’s operations.  In addition, EBITDA is a component of the financial covenants and an interest rate metric in the Company’s credit agreement.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures for the quarter to the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP are set forth in the following table.  Other companies may calculate non-GAAP adjusted financial measures differently than Ennis, which limits the usefulness of the non-GAAP measures for comparison with these other companies. While management believes the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating Ennis, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute or an alternative for, or superior to, the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These measures should be evaluated only in conjunction with the Company’s comparable GAAP financial measures.

The following table reconciles EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, for the first quarter of this year and the first quarter of last year to the most comparable GAAP measure, net earnings (dollars in thousands).

Keith Walters, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, commented by stating, “We are pleased with our first quarter performance.  We continue to build on the momentum of last year. We recently completed the integration of our ERP system at our Independent operation and believe we can further optimize its performance.  We also recently completed the acquisition of a tag company based in Caledonia, New York and look forward to it contributing to our bottom line in the months to come.  We continue to explore strategic opportunities in the acquisition arena as a way to profitably utilize our cash.”

Mr. Walters also noted, “Given our strong balance sheet and continued strong performance, our Board approved a 12 ½% increase in our quarterly dividend, effective with our upcoming regularly scheduled August dividend payment.  This is the third increase in our quarterly dividends in the last six years, and the second in the last two years.  We also purchased approximately 38,000 shares of our common stock in the first quarter, under our stock repurchase program, at an average price of $17.92 per share.  In accordance with our repurchase program, we will continue to repurchase our shares when we believe the market price is undervalued.  The industry continues to be challenged by paper price increases, trucking shortages and allocations of certain paper grades.  The printing industry hasn’t experienced paper allocations for several decades, and we believe our long term relationship with our paper supplier will allow the Company to avoid any material disruption in our supply chain.   While we don’t see any of these challenges changing in the short-term, we are encouraged by our performance so far this year and feel positive about the remainder of the year.  We continue to strengthen one of the strongest balance sheets in the industry and our cash position remains significant, which allows us many opportunities.”
