– Earnings Call to be Held Thursday, August 6, 2026 at 9:30 am CT

Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE: TPL) (the “Company,” “TPL,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), one of the largest land and royalty owners in the State of Texas with surface and royalty ownership that provides revenue opportunities through the support of energy production and related industries, today announced its financial and operating results for the second quarter of 2026.

“This quarter, we delivered record results across major financial and operating metrics and achieved significant milestones within our key growth initiatives,” said Tyler Glover, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “TPL generated record revenue, net income, and free cash flow this quarter, supported by record oil and gas royalty daily production and produced water royalty volumes. Our unhedged commodity position allowed us to capture the full upside of this quarter’s elevated oil prices. We also disclosed our involvement with Project Kilby, a multi-gigawatt power generation and data center hub located in Reeves County. As part of that development, TPL is providing land and water resources. In addition, we acquired land in Shackelford and Jones Counties, Texas as we expand our data center and power generation efforts to areas beyond the immediate Permian Basin. Furthermore, we have completed construction and begun commissioning on our 10,000 barrel per day produced water desalination test facility in Orla, Texas. Our produced water desalination efforts represent a proprietary potential sustainable solution to mitigate produced water injection demands, while also providing numerous commercial opportunities to utilize the high-spec freshwater and concentrated brine output streams.”

Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2026 - Sequential

The Company reported net income of $153.9 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $142.9 million for the first quarter of 2026.

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2026 were $246.1 million compared to $236.8 million for the first quarter of 2026. The increase in total revenues was primarily due to a $27.4 million increase in oil and gas royalty revenue, a $6.3 million increase in easements and other surface-related income, and a $3.5 million increase in produced water royalties, partially offset by a $20.9 million change in land sales revenue and a $7.1 million decrease in water sales compared to the first quarter of 2026. The Company’s average realized price was $42.17 per Boe in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $37.06 per Boe in the first quarter of 2026, and the Company’s share of production was 39.7 thousand Boe per day for the second quarter of 2026 compared to 37.1 thousand Boe per day for the first quarter of 2026. 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.

Quarterly Dividend Declared

On August 4, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.60 per share, payable on September 15, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on September 1, 2026.
