COMSTOCK RESOURCES, INC. REPORTS

THIRD QUARTER 2005 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS

FRISCO, TEXAS, November 7, 2005 – Comstock Resources, Inc. (“Comstock” or the “Company”) (NYSE: CRK) today reported financial and operating results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Financial Results for the Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005

Comstock reported net income of $14.1 million or 33¢ per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to net income of $12.3 million or 34¢ per diluted share in the same quarter of 2004. The third quarter 2005 results include a $17.7 million unrealized loss on the Company’s derivatives held for price risk management. Without the unrealized loss from derivatives, net income for the third quarter of 2005 would have been approximately $25.6 million, or 60¢ per diluted share. Comstock's oil and gas sales were $71.6 million in 2005’s third quarter, an increase of 13% over 2004’s third quarter oil and gas sales of $63.2 million. Comstock generated $53.4 million in operating cash flow (before changes in working capital accounts) in 2005’s third quarter, which represents a 16% increase over 2004’s third quarter cash flow of $45.8 million. EBITDAX or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, exploration expense and other noncash expenses was $58.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to 2004’s third quarter EBITDAX of $48.1 million. On May 10, 2005, Comstock began accounting for its interest in Bois d’Arc Energy, Inc. (NYSE: BDE) (“Bois d’Arc”) under the equity method and since that date is no longer including its share of Bois d’Arc’s revenues, EBITDAX and cash flow in its consolidated results.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, Comstock’s oil and gas sales totaled $210.0 million, as compared to oil and gas sales of $190.5 million for the same period in 2004. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $19.1 million, or 47¢ per diluted share, as compared to net income of $31.0 million or 86¢ per diluted share in 2004. The 2005 results include the Company’s share of a one time provision of $64.6 million for deferred income taxes by Bois d’Arc in connection with its conversion from a limited liability company to a corporation and a gain of $28.8 million recognized by Comstock in connection with Bois d’Arc’s initial public offering. The 2005 results also include a $20.9 million unrealized loss on the Company’s derivatives held for price risk management. Excluding the one time adjustments to reflect Bois d’Arc’s conversion to a corporation and initial public offering and the unrealized loss on derivatives, Comstock’s net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 would have been $54.6 million or $1.35 per diluted share. Operating cash flow (before changes in working capital accounts) generated by Comstock was $147.3 million for the first nine months of 2005, a 14% increase from the first nine months of 2004’s cash flow of $128.7 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, EBITDAX was $167.8 million as compared to EBITDAX of $146.7 million for the same period in 2004.

Production from Comstock’s onshore properties in the third quarter of 2005 totaled 8.6 Bcf equivalent of natural gas (“Bcfe”), a 25% increase from 2004’s third quarter production of 6.9 Bcfe. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita impacted the Company’s onshore production in the third quarter as the storms caused the shut in of certain of the Company’s fields. Deferred production attributable to the hurricanes totaled 368,000 Mcfe during the third quarter. For the first nine months of 2005, Comstock’s onshore production was 23.9 Bcfe, an increase of 10% as compared to production of 21.4 Bcfe in the same period of 2004.

Comstock’s share of Bois d’Arc’s earnings for the quarter was also significantly impacted by the storm activity in the Gulf of Mexico. Approximately 30% of Bois d’Arc’s production was deferred in the third quarter as production facilities were shut in during the storm activity and certain facilities were not restored to production due to damage to third party pipelines and processing facilities.

The Company’s realized natural gas price averaged $8.28 per Mcf in 2005’s third quarter as compared to $5.83 per Mcf in 2004’s third quarter. Realized oil prices in the third quarter of 2005 averaged $52.71 per barrel as compared to $42.46 per barrel for 2004. For the first nine months of 2005, Comstock’s realized natural gas price averaged $7.01 per Mcf as compared to 2004’s average natural gas price of $5.75 per Mcf. For the first nine months of 2005, Comstock’s realized oil price was $48.68 per barrel as compared to $38.12 per barrel in 2004.

Comstock’s debt has been reduced from $403.0 million at the beginning of 2005 to $282.0 million at the end of the third quarter. Comstock’s total stockholders equity increased from $355.9 million at the beginning of 2005 to $533.3 million at September 30, 2005. Debt as a percent of total book capitalization has improved from 53% at the end of 2004 to 35% at September 30, 2005.

Year to Date 2005 Drilling Results

Comstock also announced the results to date of its 2005 drilling program. Onshore, Comstock has drilled 59 wells (37.5 net) in the first nine months of 2005. Fifty-six (31.6 net) of the wells drilled were development wells and three (1.4 net) were exploratory. All of the development wells were successful and one (.2 net) of the exploratory wells was successful. The unsuccessful exploratory wells were a shallow test well drilled in West Texas and an unsuccessful exploratory well drilled to test the “Big Sandy” prospect in Polk County, Texas.

Comstock drilled 40 successful wells (30.5 net) in its East Texas/North Louisiana region. These wells have been tested at a per well average rate of 1.5 million cubic feet of gas equivalent (“Mmcfe”) per day and are part of Comstock’s expanded drilling program underway in this region for 2005. Comstock currently has three rigs under contract drilling in this region and six drilling rigs under contract for this region in 2006, which will allow the Company to drill 100 wells.

In its South Texas region, Comstock has drilled eight (2.8 net) successful wells. These wells have been tested at a per well average rate of 4.5 Mmcfe per day. In the third quarter Comstock participated in drilling two additional successful wells in the Ball Ranch field. The Clark Sain #14 was drilled to a depth of 12,052 feet and encountered 45 feet of net pay. The well’s initial production rate was 7.6 Mmcfe per day. Comstock has a 20% working interest in the well. The French State #1 was drilled to a depth of 14,458 feet and encountered 24 feet of net pay. The well’s initial production rate was 13.6 Mmcfe per day. Comstock has a 25% working interest in this well.

Comstock drilled ten wells (3.3 net) in its other regions during the first nine months of 2005. Nine (3.1 net) were successful and have been tested at a per well average rate of 1.6 Mmcfe per day. Six of the wells (1.0 net) were successful coal bed methane wells in the San Juan Basin in New Mexico. The remaining three (2.1 net) successful wells were drilled in Arkansas and Oklahoma.

Comstock’s offshore operations are conducted exclusively through its 48% ownership of Bois d’Arc. Bois d’Arc has drilled 17 offshore wells (15.2 net) in the Gulf of Mexico to date in 2005 with an 87% success rate. Eight of the wells were exploratory and nine were developmental. All of the exploration wells were successful and seven of the nine developmental wells were successful. The discoveries at Ship Shoal block 111, which proved up the “Laker” prospect, the South Timbalier block 75 discovery, which tested the “Doc Holiday” prospect, and the Ship Shoal block 92 “Paddlefish” well were the larger reserve discoveries made by Bois d’Arc this year.
