Earnings Call to be Held Thursday, May 8, 2025 at 9:30 am CT

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 窪蹋勛圖厙 (NYSE: TPL) (the Company, TPL, we, our or us), one of the largest landowners in the State of Texas with surface and royalty ownership that provide revenue opportunities through the support of energy production, today announced its financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2025.

Results for the first quarter of 2025 represented an excellent start to the year as the Company set quarterly records for oil and gas royalty production and Water Services and Operations segment revenue," said Tyler Glover, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. TPL's resilient business model, high-margin cash flows, and fortress balance sheet enhances the Company's ability to weather a potential industry downcycle. Near-term activity levels remain strong around our footprint, but should economic volatility persist, our business retains numerous naturally embedded hedges to mitigate the potential direct impact of lower oil prices. In addition, TPLs exceptional financial profile and strong liquidity with ample cash and no debt also allows us to be opportunistic during periods of uncertainty.

Financial Results for the First Quarter of 2025 - Sequential

The Company reported net income of $120.7 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $118.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2024.

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2025 were $196.0 million compared to $185.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to a $14.3 million increase in oil and gas royalty revenue and a $2.1 million increase in water sales compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The Companys share of production was 31.1 thousand Boe per day for the first quarter of 2025 versus 29.1 thousand Boe per day for the fourth quarter of 2024, and the average realized price was $41.58 per Boe in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $37.93 per Boe in the fourth quarter of 2024. TPLs revenue streams are directly impacted by commodity prices and development and operating decisions made by its customers.

Total operating expenses were $45.9 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $43.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in operating expenses was principally related to a $1.8 million increase in water service-related expenses during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.

Financial Results for the First Quarter of 2025 - Year Over Year

Total revenues for the first quarter of 2025 were $196.0 million compared to $174.1 million for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to a $19.1 million increase in oil and gas royalty revenue and a $4.7 million increase in produced water royalties. The Companys share of production was 31.1 thousand Boe per day for the first quarter of 2025 versus 24.8 thousand Boe per day for the first quarter of 2024, and the average realized price was $41.58 per Boe for the first quarter of 2025 versus $42.71 per Boe for the first quarter of 2024. Produced water royalties increased principally due to an increase in produced water volumes. TPLs revenue streams are directly impacted by commodity prices and development and operating decisions made by its customers.

Total operating expenses were $45.9 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $38.1 million for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in operating expenses was principally related to a $6.8 million increase in depletion expense associated with oil and gas royalty interests acquired during the second half of 2024.

Quarterly Dividend Declared

On May 6, 2025, the Companys Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.60 per share, payable on June 16, 2025 to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 2, 2025.

NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS

In addition to amounts presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), we also present certain supplemental non-GAAP performance measures. These measures are not to be considered more relevant or accurate than the measures presented in accordance with GAAP. In compliance with the requirements of the SEC, our non-GAAP measures are reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP performance measure. For all non-GAAP measures, neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on these non-GAAP measures.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization. The purpose of presenting EBITDA is to highlight earnings without finance, taxes, and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, and its use is limited to specialized analysis. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus employee share-based compensation and less pension curtailment and settlement gain. The pension curtailment and settlement gain is related to a buyout by a third party of defined benefit obligations under our pension plan and the subsequent freezing of our pension plan, both of which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2024. We have excluded the pension curtailment and settlement gain from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA as such gain is a non-recurring item and is not related to our core business. The purpose of presenting Adjusted EBITDA is to highlight earnings without non-cash activity such as share-based compensation and other non-recurring or unusual items, if applicable. We calculate free cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA less current income tax expense and capital expenditures. The purpose of presenting free cash flow is to provide an additional measure of operating performance. We have presented EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow because we believe that these metrics are useful supplements to net income in analyzing the Companys operating performance. Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024 (in thousands):
