Earnings Call to be held 7:30 am CT on Thursday, November 2, 2023
Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE: TPL) (the “Company” or "TPL") today announced its financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2023.
Third Quarter 2023 Highlights
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Highlights
(1) Reconciliations of Non-GAAP measures are provided in the tables below.
“With improving oil and gas prices and continued performance across our surface and water assets, third quarter 2023 represents another period of strong free cash flow generation,” said Tyler Glover, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “Although recent oil and gas production volumes may have been impacted by reports of infrastructure challenges over the summer and turned-to-sales timing from greater co-completion developments, our outlook remains robust for Permian development. For this most recent quarter, new permit and new spud activity increased materially from the prior sequential quarter. With a strong well inventory backlog, over 50 rigs operating on TPL royalty acreage, and a supportive commodity price backdrop in the current environment, we continue to believe that underlying fundamentals reinforce a very positive trajectory for TPL’s business.”
Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2023
The Company reported net income of $105.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 compared to net income of $129.8 million for the third quarter of 2022.
Total revenues for the third quarter of 2023 were $158.0 million compared to $191.1 million for the third quarter of 2022. Oil and gas royalty revenue decreased $43.2 million due to lower average commodity prices and lower production volumes in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022. The average realized price was $45.41 per barrel of oil equivalent (“Boe”) in the third quarter of 2023 versus $63.42 per Boe in the third quarter of 2022. The Company's share of production was 21.8 thousand Boe per day for the third quarter of 2023 versus 23.4 thousand Boe per day for the same period of 2022. The decrease in oil and gas royalty revenue was partially offset by an increase of $4.1 million in easements and other surface-related income and a combined increase of $3.7 million in water sales and produced water royalties. TPL's revenue streams are directly impacted by commodity prices and development and operating decisions made by our customers and vary as the pace of development and oil demand varies.
Total operating expenses of $31.0 million for the third quarter of 2023 increased $2.0 million compared to the same period of 2022. The change in operating expenses is principally related to an increase in water service-related expenses resulting from increased water sales activity during the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022.
Financial Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
The Company reported net income of $292.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of 15.6% compared to net income of $346.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Total revenues decreased $49.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. Oil and gas royalty revenue of $258.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 include approximately $8.7 million related to an ongoing arbitration between TPL and an operator with respect to underpayment of oil and gas royalties resulting from improper deductions of post-production costs by the operator for periods before and through April 2022 (the “$8.7 Million Stipulation”). Excluding the impact of the $8.7 Million Stipulation, oil and gas royalty revenue decreased $105.8 million compared to the same period of 2022. The Company's share of production was approximately 22.6 thousand Boe per day for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 versus 21.3 thousand Boe per day for the same period of 2022. The average realized price was $42.49 per Boe for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 versus $63.93 per Boe for the same period of 2022. The decrease in oil and gas royalty revenue was partially offset by a combined increase of $29.4 million in water sales and produced water royalties and an increase of $14.6 million in easements and other surface-related income. TPL's revenue streams are directly impacted by commodity prices and development and operating decisions made by our customers and vary as the pace of development and oil demand varies.
Total operating expenses of $112.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 increased $36.1 million compared to the same period of 2022. The change in operating expenses is principally related to increases in legal and professional fees and water service-related expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period of 2022.
Quarterly Dividend Declared
On October 31, 2023, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $3.25 per share, payable on December 15, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on December 1, 2023.

NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND DEFINITIONS
In addition to amounts presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we also present certain supplemental non-GAAP performance 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, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Its purpose is to highlight earnings without finance, taxes, and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, and its use is limited to specialized analysis. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding employee share-based compensation. Its purpose is to highlight earnings without non-cash activity such as share-based compensation and/or other non-recurring or unusual items. We calculate Free Cash Flow as Adjusted EBITDA less current income tax expense and capital expenditures. Its purpose is to provide an additional measure of operating performance. We have presented EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow because we believe that these metrics are useful supplements to net income in analyzing the Company's operating performance. Our definitions of 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, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands):
