Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Form 10-K”) and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) and notes thereto in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report.
The following discussion contains “forward-looking statements” reflecting our current expectations, future plans, estimates, beliefs and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may be outside our control and may affect our future results of operations, cash flows and financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, which include those factors discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, particularly in the sections titled “Risk Factors” in the 2025 Form 10-K and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” all of which are difficult to predict. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements except as otherwise required by applicable law.
Overview
Land is a fundamental requirement for the development and production of energy and the construction and operation of critical infrastructure. As of March 31, 2026, we owned or managed more than 315,000 surface acres in the Delaware Basin and adjacent Central Basin Platform sub-regions in the prolific Permian Basin, which is the most active area for oil and gas exploration and development in the United States. Access to expansive surface acreage is necessary for oil and natural gas development, solar power generation, power storage, digital infrastructure and non-hazardous oilfield reclamation and solid waste facilities. Further, the significant industrial economy that exists to service and support energy and infrastructure development requires access to surface acreage to support those activities. Our strategy is to actively manage our land and resources to support and encourage energy and infrastructure development and other land uses that will generate long-term revenue and Free Cash Flow for us and returns to our shareholders.
We share a legacy financial sponsor, Five Point, and our management team with WaterBridge. WaterBridge is one of the largest water midstream companies in the United States and operates a large-scale network of pipelines and other infrastructure in the Delaware Basin. These relationships provide our shared management team visibility into key areas of oil and natural gas production and long-term trends, which we leverage to encourage and support the development of critical infrastructure on our land and generate additional revenue for us. We receive royalties for each barrel of produced water that WaterBridge handles on our land as well as surface use payments for infrastructure constructed on our land.
Market Condition and Outlook
Over the last several years, the global economy and the oil and natural gas industry in particular has faced substantial volatility. This has been driven by geopolitical conflicts, domestic political uncertainties, the enactment of the OBBBA, potential U.S. and foreign tariffs, evolving international trade policies and conflicts, OPEC+ production decisions, persistent elevated inflation, higher interest rates and capital costs and continued industry consolidation. In the Delaware Basin, sustained high levels of exploration and production activity have led to labor shortages and supply chain disruptions. These challenges have directly impacted drilling, completion and production efforts by E&P companies. Additionally, volatility in commodity prices — particularly WTI crude oil and Henry Hub natural gas benchmarks, with especially pronounced volatility in realized prices at the Waha Hub — have influenced E&P operators’ development plans, rig counts and overall activity levels. More recently, the ongoing conflict in Iran, including the disruption of the global oil supply through the Strait of Hormuz, has significantly driven up commodity prices, increased inflationary pressures and increased the volatility of oil and gas prices globally, which may influence E&P operators’ drilling and production decisions.
Broader macroeconomic and policy developments, including provisions in the OBBBA (which extended certain tax incentives beneficial to fossil fuels while introducing new uncertainties) and shifts in international trade policies (such as the imposition of tariffs or product restrictions), could impair our customers’ ability to secure raw materials, equipment or financing. This, in turn, may reduce their operational activity on or around our surface acreage in the Delaware Basin. Any escalation in U.S. trade disruptions or retaliatory measures from other nations could further adversely affect demand for our land.
Despite these challenges, we believe the outlook for energy and infrastructure development, particularly within the Permian Basin, remains positive. Additionally, such development may be aided by President Trump’s various Executive Orders relating to energy production, which include expedited approvals for energy resource infrastructure as well as the removal of various impediments to the development of domestic energy resources, including oil and gas. We are well-positioned to benefit from the continued build out of supporting infrastructure in the region which will require access to surface acreage. In addition, we expect to benefit from advancements in alternative forms of energy. Alternative energy technologies often require access to material surface acreage and supporting infrastructure, which we are also well positioned to provide and facilitate.

(1)Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for more information regarding these non-GAAP financial measures along with reconciliations to the most comparable GAAP measures.
Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results of Operations
Our future results of operations may not be directly comparable to our historical results of operations for the periods presented, primarily for the reasons described below.
Acquisitions
Subsequent to the first quarter of 2025, we acquired approximately 39,000 acres, inclusive of approximately 12,000 leasehold acres and approximately 3,600 acres subject to a long-term management agreement, through various acquisitions including the 1918 Acquisition, which will impact the comparability of our results of operations. We expect to pursue opportunistic future land acquisitions that complement or expand our current land position, which may impact the comparability of our results.
Credit Facility and Notes
During November 2025, OpCo entered into the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility with available capacity of $275.0 million which matures on the earlier of (a) June 30, 2030, and (b) the date that is 91 days prior to the stated maturity of the Notes, if, on such date, the outstanding principal amount of the Notes is greater than $50 million.
Additionally, during November 2025, OpCo issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.25% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2030.

Total revenues. Total revenues increased by $7.1 million. Please see our discussion below regarding comparative period variances in revenue sources.
Easements and other surface-related revenues. Easements and other surface-related revenues increased by $6.0 million. The increase was primarily attributable to oil and natural gas gathering and transportation pipelines and produced water handling infrastructure of $2.9 million, $2.6 million other surface income primarily related to a data center lease development agreement option period payment and $0.9 million related to road easements, partially offset by lower overhead electric easements of $0.2 million and surface and subsurface drilling location easements of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Surface use royalties. Surface use royalties increased by $4.8 million. The increase was primarily attributable to increased produced water handling and associated skim oil royalties of $4.7 million and solid waste disposal and reclamation royalties of $0.1 million on our surface for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase associated with produced water handling royalties is primarily driven by a significant increase in produced water handling volume of approximately 311 Mbbl/d. The volume and associated revenue increase was primarily attributable to the 1918 Acquisition in 2025 coupled with organic growth on our overall surface acreage.
Resource sales. Resource sales decreased by $1.9 million. Brackish water sales decreased $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. Brackish water sales volume decreased by 5.7 million barrels, or 47%, to 6.5 million barrels for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to 12.2 million barrels for the three months ended March 31, 2025, partially offset by a per unit sales price increase of approximately 4%, primarily driven by the customer contract mix for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. Caliche sales increased $0.8 million for the same comparative period, primarily due to construction of energy infrastructure assets in the areas surrounding our surface acreage.
Resource royalties. Resource royalties decreased by $1.5 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower brackish water royalties of $1.2 million and sand mine royalties of $0.3 million primarily related to lower throughput volumes.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense, excluding share-based compensation expense, increased by $0.9 million. The increase was primarily attributable to increased professional services fees of $0.6 million primarily associated with legal expense related to commercial opportunities and personnel-related expenses of $0.3 million due to incremental personnel headcount for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization. Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased by $1.8 million. The increase was primarily attributable to amortization of intangibles acquired in the 1918 Acquisition during 2025.

Interest expense. Interest expense, increased by $1.5 million. The increase was primarily attributable to a higher weighted average debt balance during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to borrowings under our then-existing debt instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 partially offset by lower interest on the Notes and 2025 Revolving Credit Facility.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use certain non-GAAP performance measures to evaluate current and past performance and prospects for the future to supplement our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Although these non-GAAP financial and liquidity measures are important factors in assessing our operating results, profitability and performance they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or gross margin or any other measures presented under GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are used by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and others, to assess the financial performance of our assets over the long term to generate sufficient cash to return capital to equity holders or service indebtedness. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest; taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; share-based compensation; non-recurring transaction-related expenses; litigation settlements and expenses incurred outside of the ordinary course of business; debt modification and extinguishment costs; gains or losses on disposal of assets; and other non-cash or non-recurring expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.
We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the periods indicated.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin
Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are used by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and others, to assess our ability to repay our indebtedness, return capital to our shareholders and fund potential acquisitions without access to external sources of financing for such purposes. We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow from operating activities less investment in capital expenditures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities and, if required, proceeds from borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility. Our primary liquidity and capital requirements will be for our operating expenses, servicing of our debt, the payment of dividends to our shareholders, general company needs and investing in our business, including the potential acquisition of additional surface acreage. Although we believe that we will be able to partially or fully fund our short-term and long-term capital expenditures, working capital requirements and other capital needs with cash on hand and cash flows from operating activities, we may elect to use borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility to finance our operating and investing activities. Refer to Note 7 — Debt within the notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
We strive to maintain financial flexibility and proactively monitor potential capital sources, including equity and debt financing, to meet our target liquidity and capital requirements. If market conditions were to change and our revenues were to decline significantly or operating costs were to increase, our cash flows and liquidity could be reduced and we could be required to seek alternative financing sources.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $500.0 million of principal debt related to our 6.25% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes due 2030 and $45.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $259.7 million of liquidity comprised of the $230.0 million of available borrowing capacity under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, and $29.7 million of cash and cash equivalents.

On May 5, 2026, our board of directors declared a dividend on our Class A shares of $0.12 per share, payable on June 18, 2026 to shareholders of record as of June 4, 2026, and a corresponding required cash distribution to OpCo unitholders.
On May 5, 2026, our board of directors approved a payment for tax distributions from OpCo to OpCo unitholders (other than the company) in the amount of $9.3 million. This amount is inclusive of OpCo unitholders’ (other than the Company) pro rata share of estimated federal income tax and an additional tax distribution in excess of the Company’s then-current income tax obligation as provided for under the OpCo LLC Agreement. This amount is expected to be paid during the second quarter of 2026.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased $25.2 million. The increase was attributable to cash flow related to higher net income, net of adjustment items, of $4.3 million and an increase in cash flow attributable to working capital accounts of $20.9 million. The increase in net income, net of adjustment items, is primarily attributable to revenue growth related to continued commercialization of acreage, partially offset by higher adjustment items primarily related to higher intangibles amortization associated with the 1918 Acquisition in 2025. The increase in cash flow from working capital accounts is attributable to changes in accounts receivable primarily due to timing of acquisitions and higher interest expense accruals related to higher debt balances primarily as a result of funding acquisitions in 2025.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities decreased $15.7 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower acquisition and acquisition-related expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2026 of $2.0 million as compared to $17.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. See Note 4 — Asset Acquisitions within the notes to our Financial Statements.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities increased $19.9 million primarily attributable to an increase of $19.5 million in debt repayments net of borrowings. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cash used in financing activities primarily consisted of $14.7 million of dividends, dividend equivalents and distributions paid to shareholders and $25.2 million of debt repayments. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, cash used in financing activities primarily consisted of $13.6 million of
dividends, dividend equivalents and distributions paid to shareholders, $5.8 million of debt repayments net of borrowings, and $0.6 million in offering costs.
Capital Requirements
We focus our business model on entering into agreements under which our customers bear substantially all of the operating and capital expenditures related to their operations on our land, while minimizing our capital requirements for both current and future commercial opportunities, resulting in the ability to create significant Free Cash Flows. Our contracts generally include inflation escalators, which, when combined with our relatively low operating and capital expenditures, may assist in mitigating our exposure to broader inflationary pressures. As a landowner, we incur the initial cost to acquire our acreage, but thereafter we incur modest development capital expenditures and operating expenses as it relates to operations on our land or our mineral and royalty interests, as such expenses are borne primarily by our customers. As a result, we expect that additional significant capital expenditures would be related to our acquisition of additional surface acreage, should we elect to do so.
The amount and allocation of future acquisition-related capital expenditures will depend upon a number of factors, including the size of the acquisition opportunity, our cash flows from operating activities and our investing and financing activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, we incurred $2.0 million and $17.8 million in acquisition-related capital expenditures, respectively.
We periodically assess changes in current and projected cash flows, acquisition and divestiture activities and other factors to determine the effects on our liquidity. We believe that our cash on hand and cash flow from operating activities will provide us with sufficient liquidity to execute our current strategy. However, our ability to generate cash is subject to a number of factors that may directly or indirectly affect us, many of which are beyond our control, including commodity prices and general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors. If we require additional capital for acquisitions or other reasons, we may seek such capital through traditional borrowings under our debt instruments, offerings of debt and equity securities or other means. If we are unable to obtain funds when needed or on acceptable terms, we may not be able to complete acquisitions that may be favorable to us.
As our board of directors declares cash dividends to our Class A shareholders, we expect the dividend to be paid from Free Cash Flow. We do not currently expect to borrow funds or to adjust planned capital expenditures to finance dividends on our Class A shares. The timing, amount and financing of dividends, if any, will be subject to the discretion of our board of directors from time to time.
Share Repurchase Program
On February 24, 2026, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program. The program permits the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company’s Class A shares through December 2027. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions, block trades, accelerated share repurchases, or privately negotiated transactions or by any combination of such methods. The timing, as well as the number and value of shares repurchased under the program, will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, including management's assessment of the intrinsic value of the Company’s Class A shares, the market price of the Company’s Class A shares, general market and economic conditions, available liquidity, compliance with the Company’s debt and other agreements, applicable legal requirements, and other considerations. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under the share repurchase program, and the program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risks
Our ability to borrow and the rates offered by lenders can be adversely affected by deterioration in the credit markets and/or deterioration of our credit profile rating. We may elect for outstanding borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility to accrue interest at a rate based on either the Term SOFR, or the base rate, plus an applicable margin, which exposes us to interest rate risk to the extent we have borrowings outstanding under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility.
As of March 31, 2026, we had $45.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility. We are obligated to pay interest at variable rates and other customary fees on borrowings under this facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the 2025 Revolving Credit Facility had a weighted average interest rate of 6.07%.
As of March 31, 2026, we also had aggregate principal amounts outstanding of $500.0 million under the Notes. Since our Notes bear interest at fixed rates and are carried at amortized cost, fluctuations in interest rates do not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements. However, the fair value of the Notes will fluctuate with movements in market interest rates, increasing in periods of declining interest rates and declining in periods of increasing interest rates.
