5 Must-Read Analyst Questions From Texas Pacific Land’s Q2 Earnings Call

StockStory
Texas Pacific Land’s second quarter was marked by strong year-over-year growth but was met with a negative market reaction, reflecting concerns over the company’s revenue miss relative to analyst expectations. Management attributed quarterly performance to record royalty production in oil and gas, supported by higher realized commodity prices and increasing demand for produced water royalty volumes. CEO Tyler Glover emphasized that “our unhedged royalty position allowed us to benefit fully from the strong oil price environment,” and highlighted continued expansion into power and data center infrastructure as notable contributors to the company’s results. Is now the time to buy TPL? Find out in our full research report (it’s free). Revenue: $246.1 million vs analyst estimates of $249.6 million (31.2% year-on-year growth, 1.4% miss) EPS (GAAP): $2.23 vs analyst estimates of $2.18 (2.1% beat) Adjusted EBITDA: $215.6 million vs analyst estimates of $212 million (87.6% margin, 1.7% beat) Operating Margin: 78%, up from 76.6% in the same quarter last year Market Capitalization: $25.17 billion While we enjoy listening to the management’s commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls is the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention. Derrick Whitfield (Texas Capital) asked about the revenue potential and value chain from the Shackelford and Jones County land acquisition. CEO Tyler Glover explained that the company plans to replicate its capital-light, multi-vertical approach, capturing value from land, water, and aggregates throughout the project life cycle. Whitfield (Texas Capital) followed up on market demand for produced water desalination in data center chip cooling. Executive Vice President Robert Crain described “huge” interest from hyperscalers and AI labs, noting the appeal of water sources not part of the natural hydrologic cycle for cooling applications. Timothy Rezvan (KeyBanc Capital Markets) questioned whether future sizable land acquisitions are likely.

Management will make some prepared comments, after which we will open the call for questions. Now I will turn the call over to Ty. Tyler Glover: Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us today. This quarter, we delivered exceptional results across major financial and operating metrics and achieved significant milestones towards key growth initiatives. TPL generated record quarterly total revenue, net income and free cash flow. These results were supported by record oil and gas royalty production and produced water royalty volumes. Oil and gas royalty production averaged approximately 39,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day, up 7% sequentially and 20% year-over-year. In addition, our unhedged royalty position allowed us to benefit fully from the strong oil price environment. Produced water royalty volumes were 4.9 million barrels per day during the quarter, which represents growth of 6% sequentially and 15% year-over-year, driven by strong demand for TPL's in-basin and out-of-basin pore space. Water sales volumes of 663,000 barrels per day represents a 19% decline sequentially and a 38% increase year-over-year. Second quarter water sales volumes have been impacted by weak in-basin natural gas prices as operators have shifted some development away from the Delaware Basin. However, substantial new gas pipeline capacity enters service over the next few quarters, and we would expect some mix shift towards the Delaware as local in-basin gas price differentials improve. For SLEM, revenues of $24 million, which represents a 37% sequential increase, were driven by strong performance for pipeline and wellbore easements. With respect to our data center and power generation efforts, we disclosed that a previously announced land sale and water supply agreement was related to Project Kilby, which is a large-scale power generation facility Chevron is developing to support a customer data center in Reeves County, Texas. This multi-gigawatt power and data center development represents a substantial commitment by some of the largest energy and technology companies in the world, and this validates the Permian as an attractive data center infrastructure hub capable of accommodating hyperscale facilities. In addition, during the quarter, we acquired over 10,000 acres of land in Shackelford and Jones County, Texas, for approximately $100 million. This region is amongst the fastest-growing data center regions in the country, and this acquisition further expands our strategic data center and power generation efforts beyond the immediate Permian Basin. This land was attractive due to its contiguousness, land and water resources, access to natural gas and grid infrastructure, established fiber and proximity to a midsized city. We are also progressing on a number of projects with various high-quality hyperscalers and AI labs, which also includes our joint effort alongside Bolt Data & Energy. Deal execution requires extensive work involving many counterparties and thorough wide-ranging diligence and our conversations revolve around multiple verticals such as land, water, aggregates and other aspects. West Texas is rapidly becoming a dominant global hub for power and compute, and it's apparent that developers and customers remain keenly motivated to expand their power and compute footholds in the regions. We will be able to provide more specific details as our commercial efforts turn into executed agreements. Turning to our produced water desalination efforts. We have completed construction and commenced commissioning on our desalination facility located in Orla, Texas, which we refer to as Phase 2b. Eventually ramping the facility to its 10,000 barrel a day capacity will allow us to demonstrate that produced water desalination can work at scale. Our desalination effort leverages our patented freeze desalination process where we also have equipment exclusivity for oil and gas applications with one of the country's leading providers of industrial scale process cooling solutions. In addition, this year, we will be implementing various desalination colocation studies. Our freeze desalination process will generate large volumes of ice and chilled water, which then could potentially be used by data centers for chip cooling. Furthermore, we are also investigating the utilization of waste heat recovery equipment to enhance our desalination process and reduce our energy consumption. There is also additional optionality to monetize both the high-spec freshwater and concentrated brine output streams from the facility. Desalinated produced water represents an interesting opportunity as it is not part of the hydrologic cycle and thus high-spec desalinated freshwater could meet standards for irrigation, industrial cooling, rangeland rehabilitation, streamflow augmentation and data center cooling, thereby reducing demands on existing local water resources. The concentrated brine may also enhance economics of produced water valorization by extracting valuable minerals such as lithium. We're excited to finally have completed construction on our Phase 2 facility as produced water desalination at scale could help significantly reduce traditional injection demand. In addition, energy supermajors and large independent hyperscalers and AI labs have shown strong interest related to the commercial and operational opportunities related to colocation and output water streams. Our Orla Phase 2 facility will provide interested parties with a tangible real-world exhibit of how we can turn an oilfield waste product into something with highly positive commercial and environmental attributes. We look forward to providing more updates in the coming quarters as we operate the facility and as business discussions advance. With that, I'll hand the call over to Chris. Chris Steddum: Thanks, Ty. Consolidated revenues during the second quarter 2026 were approximately $246 million. This represents a quarterly all-time high as well as a 4% sequential increase and a 31% increase year-over-year. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was $216 million, which was up 19% sequentially and 30% year-over-year. Our adjusted EBITDA margin for the quarter was 88%. Free cash flow was $156 million, which was up 14% sequentially and up 20% year-over-year. Moving to our well inventory. As of quarter end, TPL had 5.6 net permitted wells, 9.5 net drilled but uncompleted wells or commonly referred to as DUCs and 3.4 net completed but not producing wells. That amounts to 18.4 net line-of-sight wells. Year-to-date, capital expenditures were $29 million. As Ty discussed, in the second half of this year, we will be spending capital to investigate colocation cooling and waste heat capture opportunities at our Orla Phase 2b desalination facility. This spend was embedded in our original CapEx guidance at the beginning of the year, and we reaffirm the fiscal year guide of $65 million to $75 million. And with that, operator, we will now take questions. Operator: [Operator Instructions] First question comes from Derrick Whitfield with Texas Capital. Derrick Whitfield: My first question, I wanted to start with the surface acquisitions you made in Shackelford and Jones Counties. While a bit of a step out, it's clear to us that it was bought on more than a hunch. How would you guys frame the opportunity with this kind of build-out in this project potential and the amount of revenue streams it could involve? Tyler Glover: Yes. That's a good question, Derrick. I mean it is a little bit of a step out, but I mean, we think the power and compute opportunity in West Texas is enormous and broader than just the Permian and our legacy footprint. And so we've been doing diligence on that property for over a year now to make sure that it specs out. That area was interesting to a compute user that we've been working with for a while now. And so I think we've demonstrated to the tech community that our team has the expertise to locate land, water, gas resources even if it's outside of our legacy footprint. And so I think it just adds some flexibility to the value proposition of TPL. We're excited about it. We think we can replicate it. And I think the question about the value chain, it's very similar to our other properties and how we look at the oil and gas business. We want to be as involved in the project as we can while still being really capital light. And so land use, water, aggregates, just clipping coupons to the kind of the entire life cycle of that project so that we capture as much of the value chain as we possibly can. Derrick Whitfield: Great. And then as my follow-up, I wanted to focus on the water desal, but specifically water desal for chip cooling. How would you frame the depth of interest you're seeing in your conversations with hyperscalers and AI labs, given the fact that it is water additive to the hydrologic cycle. I think it's a huge selling point that you guys have in your process. Robert Crain: Yes. I mean the interest in produced water and data center use is huge. And I think it's not just one stream. When you look at it, just -- let's start with just the consumptive piece. I think there still is some evaporative cooling and adding adiabatic assist that is water consumption that goes into data center, not just chip cooling, but building cooling. Obviously, that's your first one that everybody hits on because it is water that's not in the hydrologic cycle. Next, you move into something that's more specific to our technology that we're in a lot of discussions with a couple of hyperscalers and AI labs on, and that's using our freeze technology for direct chip cooling. If you look at the heat transfer that a hyperscaler uses for direct chip, it's a fraction of the heat transfer that we look at when we're getting this water down to sub-15 degrees Fahrenheit to be able to remove the salts from the water. So that's another fit. All of it goes towards a water positivity or water neutrality goal, a couple of other aspects that we're chasing just to reduce that consumption on any municipal or type of traditional water sourcing that they typically use today. Operator: Next question, Tim Rezvan with KeyBanc Capital Markets. Timothy Rezvan: Derrick touched on the topics of interest to me, but I thought I'd follow up a little more on this acreage acquisition. I think a little bit of a surprise is that you all have almost 1 million surface acres already. I know the opportunity set is vast on power and compute. But should we be expecting potential like sizable acquisitions like this in the future? I guess the idea is how much of the opportunity can you leverage off your existing footprint versus needing to buy more? Tyler Glover: Yes. Look, we're looking at it the same way we did when we started the water business, right? The primary objective is to develop the existing resource that we already have, but we're simultaneously looking for other opportunities. Like I mentioned, I think the opportunity set here is beyond our legacy footprint. And so why let someone else capture that value. And so very similar to how we've built the water business, like I said, we are looking at both options simultaneously. And I would just say like we're in advanced conversations with multiple hyperscalers, AI labs and power generators on 25 gigawatts of projects right now. I would be disappointed if we don't announce at least one or more major definitive agreements in the near term. So with an opportunity set like that, that's growing by the week, we feel like we owe it to our shareholders to look outside of our existing footprint. Timothy Rezvan: Okay. Okay. That's good context, especially on the scale, 25 gigawatts is a big number. If I could switch gears a little bit. Produced water royalty volumes, you touched on it. It was a record in the second quarter. And looking at sort of the revenue per barrel, it was at the high end, about over $0.08 a barrel. Should we be modeling that to continue to kind of ramp? I mean we know the broader trends in the business, but just kind of curious how you see that trending over the next year or 2. Tyler Glover: Well, we've got price escalators built in our existing contracts. And I think pore space will become more valuable over time. I would say the one caveat is transportation royalties are typically a little less than an actual pore space injection royalty. And so as that mix changes, you should see that royalty kind of stay steady to increasing over time. Timothy Rezvan: Okay. I appreciate that. If I could just ask one more question on your minerals business. It's biggest revenue component, but probably the least discussed segment. We saw oil tick down about 5% in the second quarter, which is a little contrary to sort of comments from large operators about pulling volumes forward into higher oil prices. So can you comment on kind of maybe what happened and maybe how you see oil volumes trending amid the rig ramp in the Permian? Chris Steddum: Yes, Tim. I think there's a couple of factors. One, I think I would just start by saying I don't think the lower oil percentage is a near-term trend for us. I think kind of this quarter and even last quarter to some extent was a bit unique. There's probably some accounting noise as some of our new acquisitions come online. We also just had a lot of heavy development that was occurring late last year, really throughout 2025 in areas that are pretty gas-rich including one of our other acquisitions. A couple of our acquisitions were some really high-interest wells in Culberson County were drilled over a pretty short time frame. And so I think our expectation is we were kind of mid-30% oil cuts. I do think that's going to trend back up. And if you look at it as a more normalized long term, it should get back up 40% plus over time. So really more kind of something unique to TPL. And the reality is even as diversified as our royalty interests are the way that people operate, they can park a rig and a completion crew in an area and can affect some of the mix with drilling a whole bunch of 3- and 4-mile laterals, the production that comes online can be significant. And so there's a lot of different factors that I think led to the -- what we might see as a pretty high gas cut. But I do think we will see both that oil trend back up and become a more meaningful part of the production mix on a go-forward basis. Operator: Next question, Oliver Huang with Tudor, Pickering. Hsu-Lei Huang: Just wanted to hit on, I guess, thoughts around the buyback. I mean, I know there have been some royalty bolt-ons over the past 12 to 18 months in addition to the land acquisition here. But it's been several quarters since there's been anything meaningful on the buyback front. Just trying to get a better understanding how does this reflect your current view of where the equity sits from a valuation perspective? Is this something that's being purposely done just to build capital for bigger near-term asks across whether it be royalty M&A, land, power and desal investments? Chris Steddum: Yes. Right now, there's a lot of really good opportunity set as we've seen the Shackelford acquisition is one of those. And I think one of our big thoughts when it comes to capital allocation is kind of putting those dollars toward best and highest use. And we just continue to see a lot of great opportunities out there where we feel like we want to be kind of in that cash build mode for now. And that's not to say that in the future, we retain the right to go out and do buybacks if that at the time becomes what we would view as a very attractive use of capital. And so it is always on our mind. We are always considering that as a way to deploy our capital. As we sit here today in the environment that we're in right now, building cash seems like and deploying it for some of these other opportunities is kind of where we want to focus. But buybacks are always on the table and something we're constantly looking at. Hsu-Lei Huang: Okay. Perfect. Maybe just a follow-up on desal. Apologies if I missed it earlier, but just any sort of color in terms of just initial takeaways? How is what you all seen early on just kind of changed your conviction level in terms of what next steps might be? And what should we kind of be watchful for on that front? Robert Crain: If anything, over the time, our belief that beneficial reuse and produced water desal will take hold as part of that mix only grows stronger. I think if you look at total water production, it continues to climb. It will continue to climb as you get into some of these Tier 2 zones that just have a higher water cut. So we were some of the first early adopters to why we are where we are and ahead of the industry in the facility is because we knew it was going to be part of that takeaway mix. That belief only gets stronger. I think what helps even strengthen that further is the interest we're seeing from the hyperscalers and the AI labs for eventually implementing this into a sourcing mix as we see the compute build-out in West Texas. To note, we're done in build. We're commissioning. Actually, on Monday, we will be hosting our grand opening and ribbon cutting at the facility. The interest we're seeing not just from the operators, we'll be attending legislators, regulators, but also multiple hyperscalers that will be on site with us on Monday as we commission the facility. Hsu-Lei Huang: Awesome. Maybe one more follow-up, if I could squeeze it in. Just kind of on your earlier comments with working with the compute user in the Shackelford, Jones County area. Any sort of color as to how quickly you can recycle the opportunity set into actual revenue dollars that start to come through the financial statements? Tyler Glover: Repeat the last part of that question, sorry. Hsu-Lei Huang: Just how quickly could we start seeing actual revenue dollars start to come through the financial statements given that specific opportunity set? Tyler Glover: Yes. Like I said, that's one that we've been working on for a while. We're a year into diligence. We're working with Bolt to develop that project. We've already started working with the local communities there on tax abatements and other things that are kind of like the tail end of the diligence process. So that's one that I would be very disappointed if we don't have a definitive agreement to announce in the very near term. Robert Crain: Yes. Real quick follow-up on what we see as this opportunity and how we're preparing for it. When we look at the near-term sourcing mixes that we're looking for these data centers and what we need to do to prepare for it, the water sourcing is varied. The eventual goal is to get produced water into data center usage. But near term, we know that we have to build out a team and build out systems for the non-potable construction water usage, the potable water that goes into the man camps. And even as far as the demand water that's used in the closed-loop system. So when we look at that, we know we've got to build a new division, a new team around that, bring in folks that the chemist of the world and these direct chip design guys, cooling design, closed-loop systems. So it's moving fast. It's moving rapidly, as Ty said, it kind of is growing by the week right now as we see the interest in West Texas compute. Operator: Thank you.

Glover said the company’s unhedged royalty position enabled it to benefit from the stronger oil-price environment during the quarter. Produced-water royalty volumes reached 4.9 million barrels per day, a 6% sequential increase and a 15% year-over-year increase. Glover attributed the gain to demand for TPL’s in-basin and out-of-basin pore space. → Why the Landlord of the AI Boom Could Outlast the Chipmakers Water sales volumes were 663,000 barrels per day, down 19% from the prior quarter but up 38% from a year earlier. According to Glover, quarterly water-sales volumes were affected by weak in-basin natural-gas prices, which led operators to shift some development away from the Delaware Basin. He said the company expects new gas-pipeline capacity entering service over the next several quarters to improve local gas-price differentials and potentially support a mix shift back toward the Delaware Basin. Surface, land and material revenue, or SLEM revenue, totaled $24 million, up 37% sequentially, driven by pipeline and wellbore easements, Glover said. As of the end of the quarter, TPL had 5.6 net permitted wells, 9.5 net drilled-but-uncompleted wells and 3.4 net completed-but-not-producing wells, for a total of 18.4 net line-of-sight wells. Year-to-date capital expenditures were $29 million. The company disclosed that a previously announced land sale and water-supply agreement relates to Project Kilby, a large-scale power-generation facility that Chevron is developing to support a customer data center in Reeves County, Texas. Glover described the multi-gigawatt power and data-center development as a validation of the Permian Basin’s ability to host hyperscale infrastructure. During the quarter, TPL also acquired more than 10,000 acres in Shackelford and Jones counties for about $100 million. Glover said the area is among the fastest-growing data-center regions in the country and offers contiguous land and water resources, access to natural gas and grid infrastructure, established fiber and proximity to a mid-size city. In response to analyst questions, Glover said TPL had conducted diligence on the property for more than a year and that it was of interest to a compute user the company had been working with. He said TPL seeks to remain capital-light while participating across potential project revenue streams, including land use, water and aggregates. Glover said the company was in advanced conversations with hyperscalers, artificial-intelligence labs and power generators involving 25 gigawatts of projects. He said he would be disappointed if TPL did not announce one or more major definitive agreements in the near term, while noting that execution requires work with multiple counterparties and extensive diligence. Steddum said the company has prioritized building cash and deploying capital toward what it views as high-return opportunities, including land acquisitions and other growth initiatives. While share repurchases remain under consideration, he said the company currently sees attractive alternatives for its capital. TPL completed construction and began commissioning its Phase 2B produced-water desalination facility in Orla, Texas. The facility is designed to eventually process 10,000 barrels per day and uses the company’s patented freeze-desalination process. Glover said the process could create high-specification freshwater for applications including industrial cooling, irrigation, rangeland rehabilitation, stream-flow augmentation and data-center cooling. The facility also produces concentrated brine that could potentially be used to extract minerals such as lithium. Robert Crain, executive vice president of Texas Pacific Water Resources, said interest from hyperscalers and AI labs in using produced water for data-center operations has been substantial. He said potential applications include water-consumptive building cooling and direct chip cooling, where the company’s process produces ice and chilled water. Crain said TPL plans to conduct desalination co-location studies during 2026, including investigations into chip-cooling applications and waste-heat recovery equipment that could reduce the process’s energy consumption. The company expects to host a grand opening and ribbon cutting for the Orla facility as commissioning continues. Steddum reaffirmed TPL’s full-year capital expenditure guidance of $65 million to $75 million. The guidance includes planned spending in the second half of the year to evaluate cooling co-location and waste-heat-capture opportunities at the Orla Phase 2B facility. On production mix, Steddum said the oil component of royalty production had been affected by development in relatively gas-rich areas and by new acquisitions. He said TPL’s oil cut, which had been in the mid-30% range, should trend back above 40% over time. Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE: TPL) is a Texas-based land management company that derives revenue from the ownership and stewardship of large tracts of land and associated mineral rights in West Texas. The company's origins trace to 19th century land grants associated with the Texas and Pacific Railway; over time those grant holdings have been retained and managed as a standalone corporate asset base. Texas Pacific Land is publicly listed and operates as a landowner and resource manager rather than as a traditional oil and gas producer. The company's primary activities include management of surface rights and leasing of land for energy and other commercial uses, administration of mineral royalty interests, and provision of water and related services to industrial customers.

Texas Pacific Land Corp (TPL) (Q2 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: Record Revenue and Strategic ...

GuruFocus.com
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Release Date: August 06, 2026 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Texas Pacific Land Corp (NYSE:TPL) delivered record quarterly total revenue, net income, and free cash flow, with consolidated revenues reaching approximately $246 million, up 31% year over year. Oil and gas royalty production hit a record average of approximately 39,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day, up 20% year over year, and the company's unhedged position allowed it to fully benefit from strong oil prices. Produced water royalty volumes reached a record 4.9 million barrels per day, up 15% year over year, driven by strong demand for both in-basin and out-of-basin pore space. The company is making significant strategic progress in data center and power generation efforts, including the multi-gigawatt Project Gilby with Chevron and a new 10,000-acre land acquisition in Shackelford and Jones County, Texas, expanding its footprint beyond the Permian. Construction of the Orla Phase 2B desalination facility is complete and commissioning has commenced, with strong interest from hyperscalers and AI labs for potential co-location and beneficial reuse of produced water streams. Management is in advanced conversations with multiple hyperscalers, AI labs, and power generators on 25 gigawatts of projects, with expectations of announcing at least one or more major definitive agreements in the near term. Water sales volumes declined 19% sequentially in the second quarter due to weak in-basin natural gas prices, as operators shifted some development activity away from the Delaware Basin. The oil cut in production mix dipped to the mid-30% range, lower than the expected normalized long-term level of 40% plus, partly due to accounting noise from new acquisitions and heavy development in gas-rich areas. The company has paused share buybacks for several quarters, choosing to build cash to deploy toward other opportunities like land acquisitions, which may not be the most favorable use of capital if the stock is undervalued.

The company's capital expenditure guidance of $65 million to $75 million for the year includes spending on co-location cooling and waste heat capture investigations, which are exploratory and may not yield immediate returns. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 2 Warning Signs with TPL. Is TPL fairly valued? Test your thesis with our free DCF calculator. Q: How should we frame the opportunity with the Shackelford and Jones County land acquisition, and what revenue streams could it involve? A: CEO Tyler Glover explained that the acquisition is a step beyond the legacy Permian footprint but reflects the enormous power and compute opportunity in West Texas. The company did over a year of diligence on the property, which was attractive to a compute user they've been working with. TPL aims to replicate its oil and gas value-chain approachland use, water, aggregatesto capture as much value as possible while remaining capital-light. Q: Given the vast existing surface acreage, should we expect more sizable acquisitions like this, and how much of the opportunity can be leveraged off the existing footprint versus buying more? A: Glover stated that the primary objective is to develop existing resources, but the opportunity set extends beyond the legacy footprint. TPL is in advanced conversations with multiple hyperscalers, AI labs, and power generators on 25 gigawatts of projects. He expressed confidence in announcing at least one or more major definitive agreements in the near term, justifying the need to look outside the existing footprint. Q: Water royalty volumes were a record in Q2, with revenue per barrel at the high end (~$0.08). Should we model this to continue ramping over the next year or two? A: CFO Chris Stedham noted that existing contracts have built-in price escalators, and pore space should become more valuable over time. He added a caveat that transportation royalties are typically slightly less than pore-space-based injection royalties, so as the mix changes, the royalty rate should remain steady to increasing. Q: Oil production ticked down about 5% in Q2, contrary to operator comments about pulling volumes forward. What happened, and how do you see oil volumes trending amid the rig ramp in the Permian? A: Stedham attributed the lower oil cut to unique factors, including accounting noise from new acquisitions and heavy development in gas-rich areas, particularly high-interest wells in Culberson County drilled over a short timeframe. He expects the oil cut, currently in the mid-30% range, to trend back up to 40%+ over time as a more normalized long-term level. Q: It's been several quarters since meaningful buybacks. Does this reflect your view on equity valuation, or is it purposeful to build capital for bigger near-term deals (royalty M&A, land, power, desal investments)? A: Stedham explained that TPL is in a "cash build mode" given the strong opportunity set, such as the Shackelford acquisition. The company aims to deploy dollars toward the best and highest use. While buybacks remain on the table and are constantly evaluated, deploying capital into these growth opportunities is the current focus. Q: Any initial takeaways from the desalination facility (Phase 2B) that have changed your conviction level, and what should we watch for? A: EVP Robert Crane stated that the belief in beneficial reuse and produced water desalination only grows stronger as total water production climbs. The interest from hyperscalers and AI labs for implementing this into their sourcing mix strengthens the case. The company is hosting a grand opening and ribbon-cutting at the facility, with multiple hyperscalers, legislators, and regulators attending. Q: How quickly can the Shackelford/Jones County opportunity translate into actual revenue dollars in the financial statements? A: Glover noted the project has been in diligence for over a year, and TPL is working with Bolt Beta Energy to develop it. They've already started working with local communities on tax abatements, which is the tail end of the diligence process. A definitive agreement could be announced in the very near term. Q: Can you provide more color on the water sourcing strategy for data centers and how TPL is preparing for it? A: Crane explained that while the eventual goal is to get produced water into data center usage, near-term needs include non-potable construction water, potable water for man camps, and demineralized water for closed-loop systems. TPL is building a new division and team around this, bringing in experts in chemistry, direct chip cooling design, and closed-loop systems, as the interest in West Texas compute grows rapidly.

Shawn Amini

More information and reconciliations about these non-GAAP financial measures are contained in our earnings release and SEC filings. Please also note, we may at times refer to our company by its stock ticker, TPL. This morning's conference call is hosted by TPL's Chief Executive Officer, Ty Glover, TPL's Chief Financial Officer, Chris Steddum, and Executive Vice President of Texas Pacific Water Resources, Robert Crain. Management will make some prepared comments, after which we'll open the call for questions. I will turn the call over to Ty.

Ty Glover

Good morning, everyone, thank you for joining us today. This quarter, we delivered exceptional results across major financial and operating metrics and achieved significant milestones towards key growth initiatives. TPL generated record quarterly total revenue, net income, and free cash flow. These results were supported by record oil and gas royalty production and produced water royalty volumes. Oil and gas royalty production averaged approximately 39,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day, up 7% sequentially and 20% year-over-year. In addition, our unhedged royalty position allowed us to benefit fully from the strong oil price environment. Produced water royalty volumes were 4.9 million barrels per day during the quarter, which represents growth of 6% sequentially and 15% year-over-year, driven by strong demand for TPL's in-basin and out-of-basin pore space.

Ty Glover

Water sales volumes of 663,000 barrels per day represents a 19% decline sequentially and a 38% increase year-over-year. Second quarter water sales volumes have been impacted by weak in-basin natural gas prices as operators have shifted some development away from the Delaware Basin. Substantial new gas pipeline capacity enters service over the next few quarters, and we would expect some mix shift towards the Delaware as local in-basin gas price differentials improve. For SLEM, revenues of $24 million, which represents a 37% sequential increase, were driven by strong performance for pipeline and wellbore easements. With respect to our data center and power generation efforts, we disclosed that a previously announced land sale and water supply agreement was related to Project Kilby, which is a large-scale power generation facility Chevron is developing to support a customer data center in Reeves County, Texas.

Ty Glover

This multi-gigawatt power and data center development represents a substantial commitment by some of the largest energy and technology companies in the world, this validates the Permian as an attractive data center infrastructure hub capable of accommodating hyperscale facilities. In addition, during the quarter, we acquired over 10,000 acres of land in Shackelford and Jones County, Texas, for approximately $100 million. This region is amongst the fastest-growing data center regions in the country, this acquisition further expands our strategic data center and power generation efforts beyond the immediate Permian Basin. This land was attractive due to its contiguousness, land and water resources, access to natural gas and grid infrastructure, established fiber, proximity to a mid-size city. We are also progressing on a number of projects with various high-quality hyperscalers and AI labs, which also includes our joint effort alongside Bolt Data and Energy.

Ty Glover

Deal execution requires extensive work involving many counterparties and thorough, wide-ranging diligence, our conversations revolve around multiple verticals such as land, water, aggregates, and other aspects. West Texas is rapidly becoming a dominant global hub for power and compute, it's apparent that developers and customers remain keenly motivated to expand their power and compute footholds in the regions. We will be able to provide more specific details as our commercial efforts turn into executed agreements. Turning to our produced water desalination efforts, we have completed construction and commenced commissioning on our desalination facility located in Orla, Texas, which we refer to as Phase 2B. Eventually ramping the facility to its 10,000-barrel-a-day capacity will allow us to demonstrate that produced water desalination can work at scale.

Ty Glover

Our desalination effort leverages our patented freeze desalination process, where we also have equipment exclusivity for oil and gas applications with one of the country's leading providers of industrial-scale process cooling solutions. In addition, this year, we will be implementing various desalination co-location studies. Our freeze desalination process will generate large volumes of ice and chilled water, which then could potentially be used by data centers for chip cooling. We are also investigating the utilization of waste heat recovery equipment to enhance our desalination process and reduce our energy consumption. There's also additional optionality to monetize both the high spec freshwater and concentrated brine output streams from the facility.

Ty Glover

Desalinated produced water represents an interesting opportunity as it is not part of the hydrologic cycle, and thus, high spec desalinated fresh water could meet standards for irrigation, industrial cooling, rangeland rehabilitation, stream flow augmentation, and data center cooling, thereby reducing demands on existing local water resources. The concentrated brine may also enhance economics of produced water valorization by extracting valuable minerals such as lithium. We are excited to finally have completed construction on our Phase 2 facility as produced water desalination at scale could help significantly reduce traditional injection demands. In addition, energy supermajors and large independents, hyperscalers and AI labs have shown strong interest related to the commercial and operational opportunities related to co-location and output water streams.

Ty Glover

Our Orla Phase 2 facility will provide interested parties with a tangible real-world exhibit of how we can turn an oil field waste product into something with highly positive commercial and environmental attributes. We look forward to providing more updates in the coming quarters as we operate the facility and as business discussions advance. With that, I will hand the call over to Chris.

Chris Steddum

Thanks, Ty. Consolidated revenues during the second quarter 2026 were approximately $246 million. This represents a quarterly all-time high, as well as a 4% sequential increase and a 31% increase year-over-year. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was $216 million, which was up 19% sequentially and 30% year-over-year. Our adjusted EBITDA margin for the quarter was 88%. Free cash flow was $156 million, which was up 14% sequentially and up 20% year-over-year. Moving to our well inventory, as of quarter end, TPL had 5.6 net permitted wells, 9.5 net drilled but uncompleted wells, or commonly referred to as DUCs, and 3.4 net completed but not producing wells. That amounts to 18.4 net line of sight wells. Year to date, capital expenditures were $29 million.

Chris Steddum

As Ty discussed, in the second half of this year, we will be spending capital to investigate co-location cooling and waste heat capture opportunities at our Orla Phase 2B desalination facility. This spend was embedded in our original CapEx guidance at the beginning of the year, and we reaffirm the fiscal year guide of $65 million-$75 million. With that operator, we will now take questions.

Derrick Whitfield

Thanks. Good morning, all, and thanks for your time.

Ty Glover

Morning, Derrick.

Derrick Whitfield

My first question, I wanted to start with the surface acquisitions you made in Shackelford and Jones Counties. While a bit of a step out, it is clear to us that it was bought on more than a hunch. How would you guys frame the opportunity with this kind of build-out and this project potential and the amount of revenue streams it could involve?

Ty Glover

Yeah, that's a good question, Derrick. It is a little bit of a step out, we think the power and compute opportunity in West Texas is enormous and broader than just the Permian and our legacy footprint. We've been doing diligence on that property for over a year now to make sure that it specs out. That area was interesting to a compute user that we've been working with for a while now. I think we've demonstrated to the tech community that our team has the expertise to locate land, water, gas resources, even if it's outside of our legacy footprint. I think it just adds some flexibility to the value proposition of TPL. We're excited about it. We think we can replicate it.

Ty Glover

I think the question about the value chain, it's very similar to our other properties and how we look at the oil and gas business. We want to be as involved in the project as we can while still being really capital light. Land use, water, aggregates, just clipping coupons through the kind of the entire life cycle of that project so that we capture as much of the value chain as we possibly can.

Derrick Whitfield

Great. As my follow-up, I wanted to focus on the water desal, specifically water desal for chip cooling. How would you frame the depth of interest you're seeing in your conversations with hyperscalers and AI labs, given the fact that it is water additive to the hydrologic cycle? I think it's a huge selling point that you guys have in your process.

Ty Glover

The interest in produced water in data center use is huge. I think it's not just one stream. When you look at it, let's start with just the consumptive piece. There still is some evaporative cooling and adiabatic assist that is water consumptive that goes into data center, not just chip cooling, but building cooling.

Ty Glover

Obviously, that's your first one that everybody hits on, because it is water that's not in the hydrologic cycle. You move into something that's more specific to our technology, that we're in a lot of discussions with a couple hyperscalers and AI labs on, and that's using our freeze technology for direct chip cooling. If you look at the heat transfer that a hyperscaler uses for direct chip, it's a fraction of the heat transfer that we look at when we're getting this water down to sub 15 degrees Fahrenheit to be able to remove the salts from the water. That's another fit. All of it goes toward a water positivity or water neutrality goal. A couple other aspects that we're chasing, just to reduce that consumption on any municipal or type of traditional water sourcing that they typically use today.

Derrick Whitfield

Perfect. Great update, guys. Thanks.

Operator

Next question, Tim Rezvan with KeyBanc Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

Tim Rezvan

Thanks, folks, for taking our questions. Derrick touched on the topics of interest to me, I thought I'd follow up a little more on this acreage acquisition. I think a little bit of surprise is that you all have almost 1 million surface acres already. Should we be expecting potential sizable acquisitions like this in the future? I guess the idea is how much of the opportunity can you leverage off your existing footprint versus needing to buy more?

Ty Glover

Look, we're looking at it the same way we did when we started the water business, right? The primary objective is to develop the existing resource that we already have, but we're simultaneously looking for other opportunities. Like I mentioned, I think the opportunity set here is beyond our legacy footprint. Why let someone else capture that value? Very similar to how we've built the water business, like I said, we are looking at both options simultaneously, and I would just say, we're in advanced conversations with multiple hyperscalers, AI labs, and power generators on 25 gigawatts of projects right now. I would be disappointed if we don't announce at least one or more major definitive agreements in the near term.

Ty Glover

With an opportunity set like that that's growing by the week, we feel like we owe it to our shareholders to look outside of our existing footprint.

Tim Rezvan

Okay. That's good context, especially on the scale. 25 gigawatts is a big number. If I could switch gears a little bit. Produced water royalty volumes, you touched on it. It was a record in the second quarter. Looking at sort of the revenue per barrel, it was at the high end, about a little over $0.8 a barrel. Should we be modeling that to continue to kind of ramp? I mean, we know the broader trends in the business, just kind of curious how you see that trending over the next year or two.

Ty Glover

Well, we've got price escalators built in our existing contracts, I think pore space will become more valuable over time. I would say the one caveat is, transportation royalties are typically a little less than an actual pore space injection royalty. As that mix changes, you should see that royalty kind of stay steady to increasing over time.

Tim Rezvan

Okay. Appreciate that. If I could just ask one more question on your minerals business. It's the biggest revenue component, but probably the least discussed segment. We saw oil tick down about 5% in the second quarter, which is a little contrary to sort of comments from large operators about pulling volumes forward into higher oil prices. Can you comment on kind of maybe what happened and maybe how you see oil volumes trending amid the rig ramp in the Permian? Thanks.

Chris Steddum

Yeah. Tim, I think there's a couple factors. One, I think I would just start by saying, I don't think the lower oil percentage is a near-term trend for us. I think this quarter and even last quarter to some extent, was a bit unique. There's probably some accounting noise as some of our new acquisitions come online. We also just had a lot of heavy development that was occurring late last year, really throughout 2025 in areas that are pretty gas rich, including one of our other acquisitions. A couple of our acquisitions were some really high-interest wells in Culberson County, were drilled over a pretty short timeframe. I think our expectation is, we were kind of mid 30% oil cuts. I do think that's going to trend back up.

Chris Steddum

If you look at it as a more normalized long-term, should get back up 40% plus over time. Really more kind of something unique to TPL. The reality is, even as diversified as our royalty interests are, the way that people operate, they can park a rig and a completion crew in an area, and can affect some of the mix with drilling a whole bunch of three- and four-mile laterals. The production that comes online can be significant. There's a lot of different factors that I think led to what we might see as a pretty high gas cut. I do think we will see both that oil trend back up and become a more meaningful part of the production mix on a go-forward basis.

Tim Rezvan

Okay. Appreciate the comments. Thank you.

Chris Steddum

Thanks, Tim.

Operator

Next question, Oliver Huang with Tudor, Pickering. Please go ahead.

Oliver Huang

Good morning, Ty team. Thanks for taking the questions.

Ty Glover

Morning.

Oliver Huang

Just wanted to hit on, I guess, thoughts around the buyback. I know there have been some royalty bolt-ons over the past 12-18 months in addition to the land acquisition here. It's been several quarters since there's been anything meaningful on the buyback front. Just trying to get a better understanding, how does this reflect your current view of where the equity sits from a valuation perspective? Is this something that's being purposefully done just to build capital for bigger near-term asks across, whether it be royalty, M&A, land, power, and desal investments?

Ty Glover

Yeah. Right now, there's a lot of really good opportunity set, as we've seen. The Shackelford acquisition is one of those. I think one of our big thoughts when it comes to capital allocation is kind of turning those dollars toward best and highest use. We just continue to see a lot of great opportunities out there where we feel like we want to be kind of in that cash build mode for now. That's not to say that in the future, we retain the right to go out and do buybacks if that, at the time, becomes what we would view as a very attractive use of capital. It is always on our mind. We are always considering that as a way to deploy our capital.

Ty Glover

As we sit here today in the environment that we're in right now, building cash seems like and deploying it for some of these other opportunities is kind of where we want to focus. Buybacks are always on the table and something we're constantly looking at.

Oliver Huang

Okay, perfect. Maybe just a follow-up on desal. Apologies if I missed it earlier, but just any sort of color in terms of just initial takeaways. How has what you all seen early on just kind of changed your conviction level in terms of what next steps might be, and what should we kind of be watchful for on that front?

Robert Crain

If anything, over the time, our belief that beneficial reuse and produced water desal will take hold as part of that mix only grows stronger. I think if you look at total water production, it continues to climb. It will continue to climb as you get into some of these tier 2 zones that just have a higher water cut. We were some of the first early adopters, that's why we are where we are and ahead of the industry as far as this facility is because we knew it was going to be part of that takeaway mix. That belief only gets stronger. What helps even strengthen that further is the interest we're seeing from the hyperscalers and the AI labs for eventually implementing this into a sourcing mix as we see the compute build out in West Texas. To note, we're done in build.

Robert Crain

We're commissioning. Actually, on Monday, we will be hosting our grand opening and ribbon cutting at the facility. The interest we're seeing, not just from the operators who will be attending, legislators, regulators, but also multiple hyperscalers that will be on site with us on Monday as we commission the facility.

Oliver Huang

Awesome. Maybe one more follow-up if I could squeeze it in. Just kind of on your earlier comments with working with the compute user in the Shackelford, Jones County area. Any sort of color as to how quickly you can recycle the opportunity set into actual revenue dollars that start to come through the financial statements?

Robert Crain

Repeat the last part of that question. Sorry.

Oliver Huang

Just how quickly could we start seeing actual revenue dollars start to come through the financial statements given that specific opportunity set?

Robert Crain

Like I said, that's one that we've been working on for a while. We're a year into diligence. We're working with Bolt to develop that project. We've already started working with the local communities there on tax abatements and other things that are kind of like the tail end of the diligence process. That's one that I would be very disappointed if we don't have a definitive agreement to announce in the very near term. Real quick follow-up on what we see as this opportunity and how we're preparing for it. When we look at the near-term sourcing mixes that we're looking for these data centers and what we need to do to prepare for it, the water sourcing is varied. The eventual goal is to get produced water into data center usage.

Robert Crain

Near term, we know we have to build out a team and build out systems for the non-potable construction water usage, the potable water that goes into the man camps, and even as far as the demand water that's used in the closed loop system. When we look at that, we know we've got to build a new division, a new team around that. Bring in folks that, the chemists of the world, and these direct chip design guys, cooling design, closed loop system. It's moving fast. It's moving rapidly, as Ty said. It kind of is growing by the week right now as we see the interest in West Texas compute.

Oliver Huang

Makes sense. Thanks for the time, guys.

Robert Crain

Thank you.

Operator

Thank you. This concludes today's teleconference. You may disconnect your lines at this time, and we thank you for your participation.

You’ve probably never heard of it. This is what the early days of Palantir looked like before it became a giant. Same playbook. Different technology. If you missed Palantir, you need to see this. Claim The Stock Ticker for Free HERE. Texas Pacific Land has been a well-oiled machine over the last five years. It demonstrated elite profitability for an upstream and integrated energy business, boasting an average EBITDA margin of 86.4%. Analyzing the trend in its profitability, Texas Pacific Land’s EBITDA margin decreased by 6.3 percentage points over the last year. This raises questions about the company’s expense base because its revenue growth should have given it leverage on its fixed costs, resulting in better economies of scale and profitability. This quarter, Texas Pacific Land generated an EBITDA margin profit margin of 87.6%, in line with the same quarter last year. This indicates the company’s overall cost structure has been relatively stable. This adjusted EBITDA beat Wall Street’s estimates by 1.7%. Adjusted EBITDA shows how profitable a company’s existing wells are before financing and reinvestment decisions, but free cash flow shows how much value remains after paying the cost of replacing those wells. In upstream energy, production naturally declines over time, so companies must continuously reinvest just to stand still. A producer can report strong EBITDA margins yet generate little or no free cash flow if its wells decline quickly or if new drilling is expensive. Free cash flow therefore captures not only how efficiently a company produces hydrocarbons today, but also how costly it is to sustain that production into the future. Texas Pacific Land has shown terrific cash profitability, driven by its lucrative business model that enables it to reinvest, return capital to investors, and stay ahead of the competition. The company’s free cash flow margin was among the best in the energy upstream and integrated energy sector, averaging an eye-popping 63.2% over the last five years. The level of free cash flow is important, but its durability across cycles is just as critical. Consistent margins are far more valuable than volatile swings driven by commodity prices. Texas Pacific Land’s ratio of quarterly free cash flow volatility to WTI Crude price volatility over the past five years was 1.5 (lower is better), indicating unusually strong insulation from commodity swings. This stability supports superior capital access in downturns and positions Texas Pacific Land to act as a consolidator when weaker peers are forced to retrench. You may be asking why we wait until the free cash flow line to perform this stability analysis versus commodity prices. Why not compare revenue or EBITDA to WTI Crude prices in the case of Texas Pacific Land? Because what ultimately matters is not how much revenue or profit you earn when prices are high but how much cash you can generate when prices are low. Free cash flow is the superior metric because it includes everything from hedging prowess to growth and maintenance capex to management behavior during good times and bad. Texas Pacific Land’s free cash flow clocked in at $155.5 million in Q2, equivalent to a 63.2% margin. This cash profitability was in line with the comparable period last year and its five-year average. It was encouraging to see Texas Pacific Land beat analysts’ EBITDA expectations this quarter. We were also glad its EPS outperformed Wall Street’s estimates. On the other hand, its revenue slightly missed. Overall, this quarter was mixed. The stock traded up 1.1% to $385.69 immediately following the results. Big picture, is Texas Pacific Land a buy here and now? What happened in the latest quarter matters, but not as much as longer-term business quality and valuation, when deciding whether to invest in this stock. We cover that in our actionable full research report which you can read here, it’s free.

Water sales decreased in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2026 due to a decrease in water sales volumes, partially offset by an increase in average realized pricing. TPL’s revenue streams are directly impacted by commodity prices and development and operating decisions made by its customers. Total operating expenses were $54.2 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $54.5 million for the first quarter of 2026. The decrease in operating expenses was principally related to a $2.7 million decrease in water service-related expenses, partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense during the second quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2026. Financial Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 - Year Over Year The Company reported net income of $296.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to net income of $236.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 were $482.9 million compared to $383.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to a $57.5 million increase in oil and gas royalty revenue, a $22.2 million increase in water sales, a $20.9 million increase in land sales, and a $12.2 million increase in produced water royalties, partially offset by a $13.5 million change in easements and other surface-related income during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025. The Company’s share of production was 38.4 thousand Boe per day for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to 32.2 thousand Boe per day for the same period of 2025, and the Company’s average realized price was $39.72 per Boe for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $37.10 per Boe for the same period of 2025. Water sales increased due to both increased water sales volumes and average realized pricing, and produced water royalties increased due to increased produced water volumes. TPL’s revenue streams are directly impacted by commodity prices and development and operating decisions made by its customers. Total operating expenses were $108.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $89.7 million for the same period of 2025. The increase in operating expenses was principally related to an increase of $6.3 million in water service-related expenses, a $5.0 million increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization, and an increase of $4.9 million in general and administrative expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements Certain statements in this news release are, and certain statements made on the related conference call may be, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on TPL’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, TPL, and therefore involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Generally, future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may" and the words "believe," "anticipate," "continue," "intend," "expect," and similar expressions or the negative of such terms identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, references to strategies, plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, assumptions, future operations, and prospects; statements regarding anticipated benefits of recent acquisitions or the Permian Basin’s future drilling inventory and energy resources; and other statements that are not historical facts. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Although TPL believes that plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by any forward-looking statements made herein are reasonable, TPL may be unable to achieve such plans, intentions or expectations and actual results, and performance or achievements may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to: the initiation or outcome of potential litigation; any changes in general economic and/or industry specific conditions; and the other risks discussed in TPL’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. You can access TPL’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") through the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and TPL strongly encourages you to do so.

Except as required by applicable law, TPL undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements or other statements herein for revisions or changes after this communication is made. NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS In addition to amounts presented in accordance with GAAP, we also present certain supplemental non-GAAP performance measurements. These measurements are not to be considered more relevant or accurate than the measurements presented in accordance with GAAP. In compliance with the requirements of the SEC, our non-GAAP measurements are reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP performance measure. For all non-GAAP measurements, neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on these non-GAAP measurements. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measurement 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. 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. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is a metric used by the compensation committee of our Board to evaluate the Company’s performance in determining the short-term and long-term incentive compensation of our executive officers on an annual basis. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus employee share-based compensation, less land sale with financing arrangement and pension curtailment and settlement gain, as applicable to the periods presented. The purpose of presenting free cash flow is to provide investors a metric to measure the funds available for investing in future acquisitions and returning capital to our stockholders through dividends and share repurchases after current income tax expense and purchases of fixed assets. Additionally, free cash flow is a metric used by the compensation committee of our Board to evaluate the Company’s performance in determining the short-term and long-term incentive compensation of our executive officers. To calculate free cash flow, net income is adjusted by adding back income tax expense, depreciation, depletion and amortization and employee share-based compensation, less current income tax expenses, land sale with financing arrangement, purchases of fixed assets and pension curtailment and settlement gain, as applicable to the periods presented. 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 Company’s operating performance, ability to fund future acquisitions, ability to return capital to our stockholders and explaining how our executive officers are compensated. 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 net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 (in thousands): The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to free cash flow for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 and for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 (in thousands): View source version on businesswire.com: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260805467858/en/ Contacts Investor [email protected]
