Reworded

An investment in our securities involves a degree of risk. The risks described below, and other risks noted throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K,Report, including those risks identified in Part II, Item 7,7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also have a material adverse effect on us. If any of the following risks actually occur, our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or business could be harmed. In that case, the market price of our stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment in our stock.

Reworded

The oil and gas royalties that we receive are dependent upon the market prices for oil and gas, and decreases in such prices for oil and gas negatively impact the revenue realized on our oil and gas royalties. Reductions in market prices for oil and gas could also lead to decreased exploration and development activity by the operators of the properties on which we own oil and gas royalty interests, which could reduce our revenue potential with respect to such interests. Market prices for oil and gas are subject to USU.S. and global macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions and infrastructure and logistical constraints, amongst others, and, in the past, have been subject to significant price fluctuations. Price fluctuations for oil and gas have been particularly volatile in recent years due to supply and demand constraints,factors, worldwide energy conservation measures, OPEC and OPEC+ actions, global conflicts in major oil producing regions, especially in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, and general economic cycles, among other factors. These events and conditions have, at times, resulted in a reduction of global economic activity and volatility in the global financial markets. The scale and duration of the impact of these factors remain unknowable but could lead to a decrease in our revenues and have a material impact on our business segments and earnings, cash flow and financial condition.

Reworded

We are not an oil and gas producer. Our oil and gas royalty revenue is derived primarily from perpetual non-participating oil and gas royalty interests that we have retained or oil and gas interests that we have acquired. As oil and gas wells age, their production capacity may decline absent additional investment. However, the owners and operators of the oil and gas wells make all decisions as to investments in, and production from, those wells and our royalties are dependent upon decisions made by those owners and operators, among other factors. Accordingly, a significant portion of our revenues is reliant on the management and actions of third parties, over whom we have no control. Such third parties may not take actions or make decisions that will be beneficial to us, which could result in adverse effects on our financial results and performance.

Removed

Demand for TPWR’s products and services is substantially dependent on demand and expenditures by our customers for the exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas reserves. These expenditures are generally dependent on our customers’ overall financial position, capital allocation priorities, and views of future oil and natural gas prices. Declines, as well as anticipated declines, in oil and gas prices have in the past resulted, and may in the future result, in lower capital expenditures, project modifications, delays or cancellations, general business disruptions, and delays in payment, or nonpayment, of amounts that are owed to us, which could in the future, adversely affect our earnings, cash flow and financial condition. The results of operations for the Water Services and Operations segment have been impacted from time to time by reduced development pacing and declines in expenditures by our customers in response to varying industry or global circumstances. Our results may continue to be impacted by producer discretion on development pacing and capital expenditures.

Removed

We have encountered and may continue to encounter the challenges, uncertainties and difficulties frequently experienced in new and rapidly evolving markets with respect to the business of TPWR, including, but not limited to:

Removed

•lack of sufficient customers or loss of significant customers for the new line of business;

Removed

The business of TPWR is subject to applicable state and federal laws and regulations, including laws and regulations on water use, environmental and safety matters. These laws and regulations may increase the costs and timing of planning, designing, drilling, installing, operating and abandoning water wells and sourced water and treatment facilities and impact our customers’ ability to transport, store and/or dispose of produced water in certain locations. Due to increased seismicity in the Delaware and Midland Basins, the Texas Railroad Commission recently began implementing seismic response areas (“SRAs”) limiting the permitted capacity and use of certain saltwater disposal wells (“SWDs”) for the injection of produced water. The implementation of SRAs could limit the volume of produced water disposed on the Company’s surface within the SRAs or, in certain cases, could direct additional volumes of produced water to SWDs on the Company’s surface outside of SRAs. These limitations and/or redirections may require TPWR to adapt its business plans and could affect TPWR’s financial performance. We continue to actively engage with the Texas Railroad Commission and evaluate the potential effect of SRAs on our produced water royalties.

Reworded

Our estimated proved developed producing (“PDP”) reserves are based on many assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate. Any inaccuracies in these estimates or underlying assumptions may materially affect the quantities and present value of our reserves.

Reworded

It is not possible to measure underground accumulations of oil, natural gas, and NGL with precision. Oil and natural gas reserve engineering requires subjective estimates of underground accumulations of oil and natural gas and assumptions concerning future oil and natural gas prices, production levels, ultimate recoveries and operating and development costs. In estimating our proved developed producing (“PDP”) reserves, we and Ryder Scott Company, L.P. ("“Ryder Scott"”), an independent third-party petroleum engineering firm, must make various assumptions with respect to many matters that may prove to be incorrect, including:

Reworded

•future oil, natural gas, and NGL prices;

Reworded

Our historical estimatesEstimates of our proved, developed and producing reserves and related valuations as of December 31, 20242025 were prepared by Ryder Scott, which conducted a well-by-well review of all wells in which we have a mineral or royalty interest for the period covered by its reserve report using information provided by us. Over time, we may make material changes to reserve estimates. Some of our reserve estimates were made without the benefit of a lengthy production history, which are less reliable than estimates based on a lengthy production history. Our reserve estimates could differ materially from those reserve estimates of operators developing on our acreage. Numerous changes over time to the assumptions on which our reserve estimates are based, as described above, may result in the actual quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered being different from our reserve estimates.

Added

The successful implementation of our strategies and handling of other issues integral to our future success depends, in part, on our experienced management team, including with respect to the business of TPWR. The loss of key members of our management team could have an adverse effect on our business. If we cannot retain our experienced personnel or attract additional experienced technical personnel, our ability to compete within our industry could be harmed.

Added

Demand for TPWR’s products and services is substantially dependent on demand and expenditures by our customers for the exploration, development and production of oil and gas reserves. These expenditures are generally dependent on our customers’ overall financial position, capital allocation priorities, and views of future oil and gas prices. Declines, as well as anticipated declines, in oil and gas prices have in the past resulted, and may in the future result, in lower capital expenditures, project modifications, delays or cancellations, general business disruptions, and delays in payment, or nonpayment, of amounts that are owed to us, which could in the future, adversely affect our earnings, cash flow and financial condition.

We have encountered and may continue to encounter the challenges, uncertainties and difficulties frequently experienced in a new and rapidly evolving market with respect to the business of TPWR, including, but not limited to:

Added

•lack of sufficient customers or loss of significant customers for the business of TPWR;

Added

The market in which TPWR operates is highly competitive and includes numerous companies capable of competing effectively on a local basis. TPWR competes with landowners, water supply and transfer companies, and companies who engage in the sale or treatment of produced water. Some of our larger diversified competitors have a broad geographic scope and have benefits of scale, while others focus on specific areas only and may have locally competitive cost efficiencies as a result.

Added

Additionally, there may be new companies that enter the water solutions business, or our existing and potential customers may develop their own water management solutions. Our ability to maintain current revenue and cash flows, and our ability to expand our operations, could be adversely affected by the activities of our competitors and our customers.

Added

The business of TPWR is subject to applicable state and federal laws and regulations, including laws and regulations on water use, environmental and safety matters. These laws and regulations may increase the costs and timing of planning, designing, drilling, installing, operating and abandoning water wells and sourced water and treatment facilities and impact our customers’ ability to transport, store and/or dispose of produced water in certain locations. Some state and local governmental authorities have begun to monitor or restrict the use of water to ensure adequate local water supply. In addition, due to increased seismicity in the Delaware and Midland Basins, the Texas Railroad Commission recently began implementing seismic response areas (“SRAs”) limiting the permitted capacity and use of certain saltwater disposal wells (“SWDs”) for the injection of produced water. For example, in January 2024, the Railroad Commission of Texas indefinitely suspended all deep oil and gas produced water injections in Culberson and Reeves counties. The implementation of SRAs could limit the volume of produced water disposed on the Company’s surface within the SRAs or, in certain cases, could direct additional volumes of produced water to SWDs on the Company’s surface outside of SRAs. These limitations and/or redirections may require TPWR to adapt its business plans and could affect TPWR’s financial performance. We continue to actively engage with the Texas Railroad Commission and evaluate the potential effect of SRAs on our produced water royalties.

Added

Our produced water desalination project creates risks related to invested capital, environmental exposure and our reputation.

Added

Through Transmissive, we are developing a proprietary produced water desalination technology and advancing the beneficial reuse process. Development of a produced water treatment facility requires substantial capital and may result in total project costs exceeding initial estimates due to inflation, supply chain constraints, labor and equipment availability, design changes, regulatory requirements or technical challenges. Delays in permitting, produced water sourcing, waste disposal arrangements, construction or commissioning could defer or reduce expected cash flows and impair the anticipated return on our investment. Actual throughput, pricing, operating costs and utilization may also differ from forecasts because they depend on competing treatment or disposal options, and changes in environmental or water‑handling regulations. As a result, Transmissive may fail to achieve targeted returns or require additional unplanned capital, which could lead to impairments of invested capital and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Added

We are exposed to the risk that discharges of treated water and treatment‑related waste, including those made in compliance with permitted limits, may have unforeseen adverse environmental effects. Material failures to properly treat, handle or transport produced water or discharge treated water, including leaks, spills or non‑compliance with discharge permits and performance standards, could risk contaminating surface waters, groundwater or navigable waters or damage natural resources. Such material failures could also trigger enforcement actions, require remediation or corrective measures, lead to operational restrictions or permit suspension or revocation, harm our reputation or result in third‑party claims for personal injury, property damage and other losses, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

Added

Negative public opinion or adverse perceptions of Transmissive’s operations or reputation could materially affect our business, results of operations, or prospects over time. Negative sentiment may arise from unfavorable portrayals of produced water, water treatment operations or discharge locations by the media, special interest groups, political leaders, stakeholders, or other parties, including organized opposition to specific projects or the energy industry in general. Potential impacts of such sentiment include operational delays or interruptions, legal or regulatory challenges, blockades, increased regulatory oversight, reduced public or governmental support, and the delay, challenge, or revocation of regulatory approvals, permits, or licenses, each of which may increase costs or cause cost overruns.

Added

The completion of the Corporate Reorganization implicated conditions and covenants contained in certain agreements to which the Trust was, and now TPL is, a party and thereby may cause us to lose certain benefits that the Trust historically received. For example, the obligation to pay ad valorem taxes with respect to certain of our royalty interests was assumed by a third party and is now the obligation of the successors in interest to such third party, so long as such royalty interests are held by the Trustees or their successors in office under the Declaration of Trust. We have received an indication from one such obligor that it does not intend to continue to make ad valorem tax payments related to historical royalty interests. In order to protect the historical royalty interests from any potential tax liens for non-payment of ad valorem taxes, we have accrued and/or paid such ad valorem taxes since January 1, 2022. While we intend to seek reimbursement from the third party following payment of such taxes, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in getting reimbursed, and accordingly, no loss recovery receivable has been recorded as of December 31, 2025. Taking on the cost of such payments will have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

Added

Our Credit Facility may limit our operating flexibility or otherwise adversely affect our business.

Added

The Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to grant liens, incur debt, make investments, effect certain mergers, dispose of assets, make certain payments, pay dividends or distributions on our capital stock, change the nature of our business, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, enter into certain burdensome agreements, enter into swap agreements and enter into sale and leaseback transactions, in each case subject to customary exceptions. We therefore may not be able to engage in any of the foregoing transactions unless we obtain the consent of the required lenders and administrative agent under the Credit Facility or terminate the Credit Facility. Our inability to engage in such actions could limit our operating flexibility and prohibit us from taking certain actions that might be beneficial to our business. Additionally, we are required to maintain as of the end of each fiscal quarter a consolidated interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.0 to 1.0 and a consolidated total leverage ratio of not greater than 3.50 to 1.0. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are initially unsecured, with a springing senior security interest in substantially all of the equity securities of our subsidiaries in the event our consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 2.50 to 1.0. There is no guarantee that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow to comply with these financial covenants or pay the principal and interest on any debt we incur under the Credit Facility. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that future working capital, borrowings or equity financing will be available to repay or refinance any such debt. Any inability to make scheduled payments or comply with the covenants in our Credit Facility could result in the acceleration of the obligations thereunder and could adversely affect our business.

Added

The events of default under the Credit Facility include, among others, payment defaults, breaches of covenants, defaults under the related loan documents, material misrepresentations, cross defaults with certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, judgment defaults, certain events related to plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, invalidity of the Credit Facility or the related loan documents and change in control events. If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the Credit Facility may be entitled to terminate the commitments and letter of credit extensions, accelerate any outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility, require us to post cash collateral with respect to any letters of credit and exercise any additional rights and remedies under the Credit Facility. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we may not have sufficient funds available to pay the accelerated indebtedness or that we will have the ability to refinance the accelerated indebtedness on terms favorable to us or at all.

Added

We may make minority investments, engage in joint ventures or make other strategic alliances with third parties that subject us to risks and uncertainties outside of our control.

Added

As part of our business strategy, from time to time, we may make minority investments in the equity securities of companies, engage in joint ventures or make other strategic alliances with third parties that we do not control. For example, in December 2025, we made a minority investment of $50.0 million in Bolt pursuant to a strategic agreement to develop and enable large scale data center campuses and supporting infrastructure across our land. In connection with our investment, we received an equity interest, warrants, and a right of first refusal to supply water to Bolt-affiliated projects and related infrastructure. We may contribute land and receive additional equity that may or may not increase in value or be liquid. Minority investments inherently involve a lesser degree of control over business operations, thereby potentially increasing the financial, legal, operational and/or compliance risks associated with the minority investment.

Added

To the extent we hold only a minority equity interest in a company, we may lack affirmative control rights, which may diminish our ability to influence the company’s affairs in a manner intended to enhance the value of our investment in the company. Our investment could become impaired if the majority stakeholders or the management of the company take risks or otherwise act in a manner that does not serve our interests. In addition, we could be subject to reputational harm if the company in which the investment is made makes business, financial or management decisions with which we do not agree. These circumstances could also lead to disputes and litigation with management or employees of the company in which the investment is made, or its other stockholders.

Added

The companies in which we make investments may have indebtedness or equity securities, or may be permitted to incur indebtedness or to issue equity securities, which rank senior to our investment. We also may make investments in early-stage companies that depend on venture funding and are not profitable. In the event of insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or bankruptcy of a company in which an investment is made, holders of debt instruments and securities ranking senior to our investment would typically be entitled to receive payment in full before distributions could be made in respect of our investment.

Added

We may also enter into separate commercial arrangements with these companies similar to our strategic agreement with Bolt, whether before, concurrently with, or after making a minority investment. In certain cases, an underlying commercial arrangement may be a driving factor behind our investment. Such commercial arrangements may not further our business strategy as we expected, and we may not realize all the economic benefits expected from the commercial agreement or realize the expected return on our investments.

Removed

The successful implementation of our strategies and handling of other issues integral to our future success depends, in part, on our experienced management team, including with respect to the business of TPWR. The loss of key members of our management team could have an adverse effect on our business. If we cannot retain our experienced personnel or attract additional experienced personnel, our ability to compete within our industry could be harmed.

Removed

We face direct and indirect supply chain risks that may adversely affect our business.

Removed

Our business could be negatively affected by supply shortages and/or price increases driven by the increased costs of materials and logistics as a result of macroeconomic conditions, including geopolitical conflicts, general inflationary pressures, labor shortages, part or equipment availability, manufacturing capacity, tariffs, trade disputes and barriers, natural disasters or pandemics and the effects of climate change. Supply shortages and/or price increases could lead to a reduction in revenues and an increase in our operating costs, which would have a material impact on our business segments and earnings, cash flow and financial condition.

Removed

Supply chain issues may disrupt the operations and development activities of operators on our land, upon whom a significant portion of our revenue relies, which could negatively affect our revenues from oil and gas royalties, easements and our water offerings. Supply chain issues could also lead to an increase in TPWR’s operating costs and disrupt its water sourcing and treatment operations, which could further negatively affect our revenues from our water offerings. TPWR has adapted lead times for ordering parts and equipment to mitigate supply chain issues in the past and will use its best efforts to adapt to additional supply chain issues in the future, but given the uncertainty surrounding the macroeconomic factors and geopolitical situation, supply chain issues may negatively affect our business operations in the future.

Removed

The completion of the Corporate Reorganization implicated conditions and covenants contained in certain agreements to which the Trust was, and now TPL Corporation is, a party and thereby may cause us to lose certain benefits that the Trust historically received. For example, the obligation to pay ad valorem taxes with respect to certain of our royalty interests was assumed by a third party and is now the obligation of the successors in interest to such third party (the “obligors”), so long as such royalty interests are held by the Trustees or their successors in office under the Declaration of Trust. We have received an indication from one such obligor that it does not intend to continue to make ad valorem tax payments related to historical royalty interests. In order to protect the historical royalty interests from any potential tax liens for non-payment of ad valorem taxes, we have accrued and/or paid such ad valorem taxes since January 1, 2022.

The market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate significantly due to a number of factors, some of which may be beyond our control, includingincluding, but not limited to:

Added

The timing, declaration, amount of, and payment of any cash dividends to our stockholders is within the discretion of our Board and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our operating subsidiaries, covenants associated with our Credit Facility or any future debt service obligations or other contractual obligations, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice, ability to access capital markets and other factors deemed relevant by the Board. These factors could result in a change in our current dividend policy.

Added

On November 1, 2022, our Board approved a stock repurchase program, which became effective January 1, 2023, to purchase up to an aggregate of $250.0 million of our outstanding Common Stock. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 27,000 outstanding shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $8.4 million, which repurchased shares were placed in treasury. The Company opportunistically repurchases stock under the stock repurchase program with funds generated by cash from operations. The stock repurchase program may be suspended from time to time, modified, extended or discontinued by the Board at any time. Any future repurchase under the stock repurchase program will be within the discretion of our Board and will depend upon many factors, including market and business conditions, the trading price of our Common Stock, available cash and cash flow, capital requirements and the nature of other investment opportunities.

Reworded

Our revenues depend on natural and environmental conditions with respect to operations that result in royalties to us, or that use our water services. Our business and financial results are therefore subject to disruption from natural or human causes beyond our control, including physical risks from severe storms, floods, droughts resulting in aquifer declines and other forms of severe weather, war, accidents, civil unrest, political events, fires, earthquakes, system failures, pipeline disruptions, environmental hazards such as oil and produced water spills, terrorist acts and epidemic or pandemic diseases, any of which could result in a material adverse effect on oil and natural gas production and, therefore, our results of operations.

Reworded

Much of the value of the land we own and upon which we receive royalties is based on the oil and natural gas reserves located there. Our revenues may be negatively affected by changes driven by trends such as decarbonization efforts. Such changes may relate to the types or sources of energy in demand, such as a shift to renewable sources of power generation (for example, wind and solar), along with ongoing changes in regulatory, investor, customer and consumer policies and preferences. The evolution of global energy sources is affected by factors out of our control, such as the pace of technological developments and related cost considerations, the levels of economic growth in different markets around the world and the adoption of climate change-related policies. In addition, the possibility of taxes on energy sources, including oil and gas, may affect the demand for crude oil and natural gas and the operating costs for third-party operators on our royalty properties.

Average West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) oil prices for the year ended December 31, 20242025 were relativelydown flatapproximately 15% compared to average WTI oil prices during the same period last year. Oil prices continue to be impacted by certain actions by OPEC+, geopolitics, and evolving global supply and demand trends, among other factors. In addition, ambiguity around tariffs implemented by and towards the United States has created incremental global economic uncertainty, which, in part, contributed to relatively weaker oil prices in 2025. Average Henry Hub natural gas prices during 20242025 decreasedincreased approximately 61% compared to average prior year natural gas prices. Global and domestic natural gas markets havebenefited experiencedin volatility2025 duefrom toimproved macroeconomicsupply-demand conditions,balances, infrastructureincluding tailwinds from expanded liquefied natural gas capacity and logisticalimproved constraints, weather,industrial and geopolitics,power demand, among other factors. Since mid-2022, the Waha Hub located in Pecos County, Texas has at times experienced significant negative price differentials relative to Henry Hub, located in Erath, Louisiana, due in part to growing local Permian natural gas production and limited natural gas pipeline takeaway capacity. Midstream infrastructure is currently being developed by operators to provide additional takeaway capacity, though the impact on future basis differentials will be dependent on future natural gas production and other factors. Changes in global and domestic macro-economic conditions could result in additional shifts in oil and gas supply and demand in future periods. Although our revenues are directly and indirectly impacted by changes in oil and natural gas prices, we believe our royalty interests (which require no capital expenditures or operating expense burden from us for well development), strong balance sheet, and liquidity position will help us navigate through potential commodity price volatility.

As the largest oil producing shale basin in the world, the Permian depends on large-scale water solutions related to well development and produced water disposal. For oil and gas well development, often hundreds of thousands of barrels of water are required per well completion. To enhance productivity and drilling economics, oil and gas operators have generally expanded the amount of water per well completion and reduced the time to complete a well. These factors have led to intensifying demands for completion water delivery and assurance, which generally benefits completion water providers with larger size and scale. We believe we have a competitive advantage in this market with our significant surface footprint and a large network of owned and operated water wells, storage ponds, recycling assets, and pipelines that can source and deliver water to customers throughout the Permian.

Added

Permian produced water volumes have grown commensurately with overall Permian oil production. Though some produced water is reused and recycled for completion activities, the majority of Permian produced water is injected into subsurface pore space via saltwater disposal wells. Saltwater disposal availability varies throughout the Permian depending on regulations, permitted injected rates, and the availability of pore space and infrastructure. Our extensive land holdings contain and are adjacent to extensive pore space, and, through various commercial agreements, we allow produced water operators to transport and dispose of produced water across our surface footprint. Furthermore, our previously mentioned desalination project could potentially provide an additional solution for produced water by reducing the amount of water required to be injected subsurface.

The Permian Basin is one of the oldest and most well-known hydrocarbon-producing areas and currently accounts for a substantial portion of oil and gas production in the United States, covering approximately 86,000 square miles in 52 counties across southeastern New Mexico and western Texas. Exploration and production (“E&P”) companies active in the Permian have generally increaseddecreased their drilling and development activity in 20242025 compared to recent prior year activity levels.levels Perin response to lower oil prices. Despite relatively lower activity, Permian production, per the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“EIA”), Permian production averaged approximately 6.3 million barrels per day during 2024, which represents the highest annual production ever. The EIA currently estimates that Permian oil production for December 2024 was approximately 6.5 million barrels of oil per day.day during 2025.

Salaries and related employee expenses. Salaries and related employee expenses were $53.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $43.4 million for 2023. The number of employees increased from 100 at December 31, 2023 to 111 as of December 31, 2024, which, when coupled with market compensation adjustments effective at the beginning of 2024, resulted in increased salary and related employee expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. Additionally, contract labor expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased over 2023, principally as a result of the 34.3% increase in water sales over the same period.

Removed

Water service-related expenses. Water service-related expenses increased $12.6 million to $46.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023. Certain types of water service-related expenses, including, but not limited to, treatment, transfer, water purchases, repairs and maintenance, equipment rental, and fuel costs vary from period to period as our customers’ needs and requirements change. Right of way and other expenses also vary from period to period depending on the location of customer delivery. The increase in water service-related expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 was principally related to a 34.3% increase in water sales over 2023, primarily as a result of increased water volumes. Research and development expenses related to development of a new energy-efficient method of produced water desalination and treatment were $2.5 million and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased $12.0 million to $34.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 from $46.5 million for the same period of 2023. The decrease in general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period of 2023 was principally related to a reduction in legal and professional fees associated with stockholder matters that occurred during 2023.

Removed

Depreciation, depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $25.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $14.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase is principally due to additional depletion expense associated with royalty interests acquired in August 2024 and October 2024, as well as additional amortization expense associated with intangible assets acquired in August 2023 and August 2024.

Removed

Other income, net. Other income, net was $39.7 million and $31.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in other income, net was primarily related to increased interest income earned on our cash balances during 2024. Higher interest yields during the year ended December 31, 2024 contributed to the increase in interest income. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a curtailment and settlement gain of $4.6 million related to the Company’s pension plan. See further discussion at Note 8, “Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Removed

Average West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) oil prices for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 increased slightlyby approximately 24% compared to average WTI oil prices during the same period last year. Oil prices are impacted by certain actions by OPEC+, geopolitics, and evolving global supply and demand trends, among other factors. In February 2026, an escalating military conflict in Iran led to attacks on energy infrastructure in the broader Middle East and caused major disruptions to the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping channel where a significant portion of global oil and liquefied natural gas supply transits through daily. As a result, global oil prices this year increased to over $90 per barrel during parts offrom March andthrough Aprilearly-June 2026.with continued volatility in July. The impact to oil prices for the balance of 2026 and beyond are uncertain and, in part, dependent on the duration of the conflict in Iran, the extent of damage to regional energy infrastructureinfrastructure, and the ramifications of a prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Average Henry Hub natural gas prices during 2026 increased approximately 14%4% compared to average prior year period natural gas prices. Global and domestic natural gas markets benefited in 2026 from improved supply-demand balances, including tailwinds from expanded liquefied natural gas capacity and improved industrial and power demand, among other factors. Since mid-2022, the Waha Hub located in Pecos County, Texas has at times experienced significant negative price differentials relative to Henry Hub, located in Erath, Louisiana, due in part to growing local Permian Basin natural gas production and limited natural gas pipeline takeaway capacity. Midstream infrastructure is currently being developed by operators to provide additional takeaway capacity, though the impact on future basis differentials will be dependent on future natural gas production and other factors. Changes in global and domestic macro-economic conditions could result in additional shifts in oil and gas supply and demand in future periods. Although our revenues are directly and indirectly impacted by oil and natural gas prices, we believe our royalty interests (which require no capital expenditures or operating expense burden from us for well development), strong balance sheet, and liquidity position will help us navigate through potential commodity price volatility.

Permian Basin produced water volumes have grown commensurately with overall Permian Basin oil production. Though some produced water is reused and recycled for completion activities, the majority of Permian Basin produced water is injected into subsurface pore space via saltwater disposal wells. Saltwater disposal availability varies throughout the Permian Basin depending on regulations, permitted injected rates, and the availability of pore space and infrastructure. Our extensive land holdings contain and are adjacent to extensive pore space, and, through various commercial agreements, we allow produced water operators to transport and dispose of produced water across our surface footprint. We do not operate any saltwater disposal wells. Furthermore, as discussed below, our desalination project could potentially provide an additional solution for produced water by reducing the amount of water required to be injected subsurface.

Due to our ownership concentration in the Permian Basin, our revenues are directly impacted by oil and gas pricing and drilling activity in the Permian Basin. The metrics below show selected domestic benchmark oil and natural gas prices and approximate activity levels in the Permian Basin for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025:

Average WTI Cushing oil and Henry Hub natural gas prices for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 increased compared to the same period in 2025. E&P companies broadly have continued to deploy capital towards drilling and development activities in the Permian Basin at a measured pace. Although average rig counts during the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were lower compared to the same period in 2025, increased drilling and completion efficiencies have allowed operators, in aggregate, to grow Permian Basin production. As we are a significant landownerland and royalty owner in the Permian Basin and not an oil and gas producer, our revenue is affected by the development decisions made by companies that operate in the areas where we own royalty interests and land. Accordingly, these decisions made by others affect, both directly and indirectly, our oil and gas royalties, produced water royalties, water sales, and other surface-related income.

Reworded

We continuously review our levels of liquidity and capital resources. If market conditions were to change and our revenues were to decline significantly or our operating costs were to increase significantly, our cash flows and liquidity could be reduced. Should this occur, we could draw on our Credit Facility or seek alternative sources of funding. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that require us to provide funding, guarantees, or other forms of financial support. The Credit Facility remains undrawn, and the Company is in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026.

Reworded

As we evaluate our current capital structure, capital allocation priorities, business fundamentals, and investment opportunities, we have set a target cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $700 million. Above this target, we will seek to deploy the majority of our free cash flow towards returning capital to our stockholders in the form of special dividends and/or share repurchases. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $247.6$248.6 million that we expect to utilize, along with cash flow from operations, to provide capital to support our business, to pay regular dividends, subject to the discretion of our board of directors (the “Board”), to, subject to market conditions, repurchase shares of our Common Stock, for potential acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. We believe that our cash from operations and our cash and cash equivalents balance, together with our revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet ongoing capital expenditures, working capital requirements, and other cash needs and allow for opportunistic transactions for at least the next 12 months.

Purchase of Transferable Federal Income Tax Credits

Added

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, we entered into an agreement to purchase up to $60.0 million of transferable federal tax credits from an eligible taxpayer for $55.8 million, resulting in an estimated tax benefit of $4.2 million. The purchased credits reduced federal income tax payments otherwise payable to the Internal Revenue Service and were reflected as a tax benefit in our effective tax rate during the period. The related cash payments to the seller are expected to occur during the remainder of 2026 as the underlying credits are generated and transferred.

In 2024, we announced our progress towards developing a patented, energy-efficient, desalination and treatment process and associated equipment that can recycle produced water into fresh water with quality standards appropriate for surface discharge and beneficial reuse. With the Permian Basin generating over 20 million barrels of produced water per day, this technology provides an attractive and critical alternative to subsurface injection. Construction of our facility, which will have an initial capacity of 10,000 barrels of water per day, is complete and commissioning has commenced. Cumulatively through June 30, 2026, we have spent $55.8 million ($10.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026) on this new energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and equipment, of which $48.1 million has been capitalized as of June 30, 2026.
