*Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report") that are not purely historical are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), including statements regarding management's expectations, hopes, intentions or strategies regarding the future. Words or phrases such as "anticipates," "believes," "could," "expects," "intends," "may," "might," "plan," "potential," "should," "will," and "would" or similar expressions or the negative of such terms, when used in this Annual Report or other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), are intended to identify "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company's future operations and prospects, the markets for real estate in the areas in which the Company owns real estate, applicable zoning regulations, the markets for oil and gas including actions of other oil and gas producers or consortiums worldwide such as the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries ("OPEC") and Russia (collectively referred to as "OPEC+"), expected competition, management's intent, beliefs or current expectations with respect to the Company's future financial performance and other matters. All forward-looking statements in this Report are based on information available to us, and speak only, as of the date this Report is filed with the SEC, and we assume no responsibility to update any such forward-looking statements, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."*

**Item 1. Business.**

**General**

Texas Pacific Land Corporation (which, together with its subsidiaries as the context requires, may be referred to as "TPL," the "Company," "our," "we," or "us") is a Delaware Corporation and one of the largest landowners in the State of Texas with approximately 882,000 surface acres of land, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. Additionally, we own a 1/128th nonparticipating perpetual oil and gas royalty interest ("NPRI") under approximately 85,000 acres of land, a 1/16th NPRI under approximately 371,000 acres of land, and approximately 33,000 additional net royalty acres (normalized to 1/8th) ("NRA"), for a collective total of approximately 224,000 NRA, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin.

The Company was originally organized as Texas Pacific Land Trust (the "Trust") under a Declaration of Trust, dated February 1, 1888 (the "Declaration of Trust"), to receive and hold title to extensive tracts of land in the State of Texas, previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. The Declaration of Trust provided for the appointment of trustees (the "Trustees") to manage the assets of the Trust with all of the powers of an absolute owner. On January 11, 2021, the Trust completed its reorganization from a business trust, Texas Pacific Land Trust, into Texas Pacific Land Corporation, a corporation formed and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Corporate Reorganization").

Our surface and royalty ownership provide revenue opportunities throughout the oil and gas development value chain. While we are not an oil and gas producer, we benefit from various revenue sources throughout the life cycle of a well. During the initial development phase whereby infrastructure for oil and gas development is constructed, we receive fixed fee payments for use of our land and revenue for sales of materials (caliche) used in the construction of the infrastructure. During the drilling and completion phase, we generate revenue by providing sourced water and/or treated produced water as well as fixed fee payments from the use of our land and revenue related to the sale of sand to operators. During the production phase, we receive revenue from our oil and gas royalty interests and revenue related to saltwater disposal on our land. In addition, we generate revenue from pipeline, power line and utility easements, commercial leases and temporary permits principally related to a variety of land uses, including, but not limited to, midstream infrastructure projects and processing facilities as hydrocarbons are processed and transported to market. Additionally, as a result of an acquisition in 2024, we receive commercial revenue related to land leased to a third party that operates a nonhazardous oilfield solids waste disposal site.

Our mission is to pursue a thoughtful, long-term approach towards optimizing and building upon the commercial and environmental virtues of our extensive lands and resources. We have a long history of responsible management of our legacy assets, and since 2016, we have expanded our business strategy to generate incremental revenue streams that take advantage of our vast surface and royalty footprint, such as our investments in the Water Services and Operations business segment. Beyond our core businesses, we continue to explore new opportunities related to renewable energy, environmental sustainability, and technology, among others, that can leverage our existing legacy surface and royalty assets. For example, in December 2025, we invested $50.0 million in a strategic agreement with a data and energy infrastructure company. See further discussion below

under "Recent Developments." Our business model emphasizes high cash flow margins and relatively low ongoing capital expenditure requirements, and we expect new opportunities to generally align with these priorities. We remain focused on optimizing long-term value creation and profitability, fostering responsible stewardship of our assets, providing quality customer service, and engaging with and advocating for employee and stakeholder interests.

**Recent Developments**

*Revolving Credit Facility*

On October 23, 2025, we entered into a credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and certain other lenders (collectively the "Lenders"), which provides for a revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") in the aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million. The Credit Facility includes the ability to request potential increases in the commitments of the Lenders of up to an additional $250.0 million; provided that any such request for an increase must be in a minimum amount of $50.0 million or, if less, the remaining available capacity for such increases. The Credit Facility and all borrowings thereunder will mature on October 23, 2029. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will generally bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.25% to 2.50% based on our consolidated total leverage ratio. The Credit Facility is initially unsecured, with a springing security interest in substantially all equity securities of our subsidiaries in the event our consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 2.50 to 1.0. The Credit Facility also contains customary financial and other affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. No draws were made under the Credit Facility during 2025, and the Credit Facility remained undrawn as of the date of this Annual Report.

*Common Stock Split*

On December 22, 2025, we effected a three-for-one stock split of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), and trading began on a stock split adjusted basis on December 23, 2025. Unless the context otherwise requires, all share and per share information (including information regarding treasury shares, restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and performance stock units ("PSUs")) has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split. The par value of Common Stock was not affected by the stock split and remains at $0.01 per share. Accordingly, an amount equal to the par value of the increased shares resulting from the stock split was reclassified from "Additional paid-in capital" to "Common Stock" on our consolidated balance sheets.

*Acquisition Activity During 2025*

We completed the following asset acquisitions during 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In March 2025, we acquired 177 NRA located primarily in the Midland Basin for an aggregate purchase price of $3.5 million, net of post-closing adjustments, in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In May 2025, we acquired 787 acres of land in Reeves County, Texas for an aggregate purchase price, inclusive of closing costs, of $4.5 million in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In September 2025, we acquired 8,147 acres of land in Martin County, Texas for an aggregate purchase price, inclusive of closing costs, of $31.4 million in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In November 2025, we acquired 17,306 NRA located primarily in the Midland Basin in Martin, Howard, Midland, and other counties for an aggregate purchase price of $450.7 million, net of post-closing adjustments, in an all-cash transaction.

*Investment Activity During 2025*

In December 2025, we made a minority investment of $50.0 million in Bolt Data & Energy, Inc. ("Bolt") pursuant to a strategic agreement to develop and enable large scale data center campuses and supporting infrastructure across our land. Bolt is a data energy infrastructure company co-founded by Eric Schmidt, former CEO and Chairman of Google, who also serves as Bolt's Chairman. As part of the agreement, Bolt raised $150.0 million of capital inclusive of our $50.0 million investment. In connection with our investment, we received an equity interest, warrants, and a right of first refusal to supply water to Bolt-affiliated projects and related infrastructure. Additionally, the terms of the agreement provide an opportunity for the Company to contribute land to Bolt in exchange for additional Bolt equity subject to mutual agreement by both parties. Bolt is currently pursuing commercial partnerships and anchor customers to develop large-scale data centers on our land.

**Business Segments**

We operate our business in two reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. Our segments provide management with a comprehensive financial view of our key businesses. Our segments enable the alignment of strategies and objectives of the Company and provide a framework for timely and rational allocation of resources within businesses. See Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Note 16, "Business Segment Reporting" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

**Land and Resource Management**

Our Land and Resource Management segment encompasses the business of managing our approximately 882,000 surface acres of land and approximately 224,000 NRA of oil and gas royalty interests, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. The revenue streams of this segment consist primarily of royalties from oil and gas, revenues from easements, commercial leases and renewables, and land and material sales.

We are not an oil and gas producer. Rather, our oil and gas revenue is derived from our oil and gas royalty interests. Thus, in addition to being subject to fluctuations in response to the market prices for oil and gas, our oil and gas royalties are also subject to decisions made by the owners and operators of the oil and gas wells to which our royalty interests relate as to investments in and production from those wells. Our oil and gas royalty interests require no capital expenditures or operating expense burden from us for well development.

Our revenue from easements is primarily generated from easements for pipelines transporting oil, gas and related hydrocarbons, power line and utility easements, and subsurface wellbore easements. Easements typically have a 30-plus year term but subsequently renew every 10 years with an additional payment that is subject to consumer price index escalators. Many of the renewals will reset over the next several years. In addition to easements, we also receive revenues from other surface-related operations on our land, including but not limited to, commercial leases, well development and material sales. Commercial lease revenue is derived primarily from processing, storage and compression facilities, and roads. Material sales include caliche, sand, and other material sales to operators. Caliche is used in the construction of oil and gas-related infrastructure, and sand is utilized during completion operations. Additionally, as a result of an acquisition in 2024, we receive commercial revenue related to land leased to a third party that operates a nonhazardous oilfield solids waste disposal site.

In recent years, we have entered into agreements with third parties related to renewables and various "next generation" opportunities that will potentially utilize TPL's surface assets. These agreements include the evaluation of data centers, power generation, grid-connected batteries, and carbon capture and sequestration, among other opportunities. Generally, these projects are structured with multi-year terms that allow for feasibility and/or commercial suitability and revenue arrangements that provide royalty, fee, profit sharing, lease and/or rental payments, though contractual terms and timing for commercial operations will vary by project. Additionally, as discussed above under "Recent Developments," we recently entered into a strategic agreement with Bolt to develop and enable large scale data center campuses and supporting infrastructure across our land.

As a significant landowner, we also generate revenue from land sales. From time to time, we receive offers from third parties to acquire tracts of our land. Sales demand and related sale prices of particular tracts of land are influenced by many factors, including general economic conditions, the rate of development in nearby areas and the suitability of the particular tract for commercial uses.

There are a number of oil and gas wells in which we have royalty interests that have been permitted but are still awaiting drilling and completion activity. In addition, we have also identified oil and gas wells in which we have a royalty interest that have been drilled but are not yet completed ("DUC"). These permitted and DUC wells represent potential near-term candidates for further development by operators towards ultimately being placed into production. As of December 31, 2025, our royalty acreage had an estimated 5.6 net well permits, 9.8 net DUC wells, and 4.0 net completed but not producing wells ("CUPs"), totaling 19.5 net wells. TPL had 116.1 net producing wells as of December 31, 2025.

*Competition*

Our Land and Resource Management segment has few direct peers, in that it sells, leases and generally manages land owned by the Company and, as such, any owner of property located in areas comparable to the Company is a potential competitor. The Company's sizable land ownership of approximately 882,000 surface acres and extensive commercial development is unique, as few neighboring landowners control land positions of similar scale and/or do not possess the commercial expertise to maximize business opportunities.

**Water Services and Operations**

Our Water Services and Operations segment encompasses the business of providing full-service water offerings to oil and gas operators in the Permian Basin through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Texas Pacific Water Resources LLC ("TPWR").

These full-service water offerings include, but are not limited to, water sourcing, produced-water treatment, infrastructure development, and disposal solutions. We are committed to sustainable water development. Our significant surface ownership in the Permian Basin provides TPWR with a unique opportunity to provide multiple full-service water offerings to operators.

The revenue streams of this segment principally consist of revenue from sales of sourced and treated water as well as revenue from produced water royalties. Energy businesses use water for their oil and gas projects, including new drilling and completion operations, while service businesses (*i.e.*, water management service companies) operate water facilities to sell water to, and dispose of produced water of, energy businesses.

See Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Segment Results of Operations" for a detailed discussion of our segment-level operating results.

In 2024, we announced our progress towards developing new solutions for produced water in the Permian Basin through our wholly owned subsidiary, Transmissive Water Services, LLC ("Transmissive"). Over the last few years, we have been working with a leading industrial technology and manufacturing firm to develop an energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and associated equipment that can recycle produced water into fresh water with quality standards appropriate for surface discharge and beneficial reuse. With the Permian Basin generating over 20 million barrels of produced water per day, we believe this technology would provide an attractive and critical alternative to subsurface injection. We filed and received a patent application for the desalination and treatment process and have secured exclusive use-rights for the equipment geared towards oil and gas applications. After successfully testing a pilot program in our research and development lab, we proceeded with development of a produced water desalination test facility, which we refer to as the Phase 2B facility, with an initial capacity of 10,000 barrels of produced water per day. Construction of the Phase 2B facility was temporarily paused during 2025 to allow testing and potential incorporation of additional desalination equipment and is anticipated to be completed by the end of the first half of 2026. We continue to have commercial discussions with oil and gas upstream operators as we look to provide critical, technology-driven solutions while also optimizing our economic interests. Cumulatively through December 31, 2025, we have spent $45.5 million ($33.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2025) on this new energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and equipment, of which $38.8 million has been capitalized as of December 31, 2025.

Additionally, during 2025, we invested $24.9 million in TPWR projects to enhance our water sourcing assets.

*Competition*

The market in which TPWR operates is highly competitive and includes numerous companies capable of competing effectively on a local basis. TPWR competes with landowners, water supply and transfer companies, and companies that engage in the sale or treatment of produced water. We believe our position as a significant landowner of approximately 882,000 surface acres gives us a distinct advantage over our competitors who must negotiate with existing landowners to source water and then for the right of way to deliver the water to the end user.

**Major Customers**

The chart below depicts our total revenues and revenues from customers representing 10% or more of our 2025 consolidated revenues:

![16590](tpl-20251231_g1.jpg)

While approximately 40% of our 2025 revenue was derived from only three customers, each of these customers are investment-grade rated and are among the largest companies in the world based on market capitalization. We believe each of them is a strong and reliable operator. Given their major presence in the Permian Basin and our significant surface lands in the same area, the high concentration of business with these three customers is expected. Further, the choice of with whom we do business largely depends on location of mineral royalties and surface rights on or near our assets and consists of a limited universe of oil and gas companies that operate in the Permian Basin.

**Seasonality**

While our business is not seasonal in nature, as that term is generally understood, revenue from oil and gas royalties may fluctuate from period to period based upon market prices for oil and gas and production decisions made by the operators. Our other revenue streams, which include, but are not limited to, water sales and royalties, easements and other surface related income and sales of land, may also fluctuate from period to period. In addition, our results are generally dependent on the decisions and actions of third parties out of our ultimate control. As a consequence, the results of our operations for any particular period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.

**Regulations**

We are subject to various federal, state and local laws. Management believes that our operations comply in all material respects with applicable laws and regulations and that the existence and enforcement of such laws and regulations have no more restrictive effect on our method of operations than on other companies similar to TPL.

We cannot determine the extent to which new legislation, new regulations or changes in existing laws or regulations may affect our future operations.

**Environmental Considerations**

Compliance with federal, state and local provisions that have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, have had no material effect upon our business generally, including the capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position of the Company. To date, we have not been called upon to expend any material amount of funds for these purposes.

**Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG")**

Our current ESG disclosure is available at our website at www.TexasPacific.com. Our ESG disclosure has been prepared to align with the Sustainable Accounting Standards Board, the Global Reporting Initiative, and the Task Force on Climate Related Disclosures frameworks.

Integrating sustainability and ESG objectives is a priority for our Company. Our ESG strategy reflects its dedication to meeting tactical business priorities while managing the environmental impacts of its operations, maintaining principles for social responsibility, and upholding a commitment to strong corporate governance. Our ESG strategy is focused on the overarching priorities of environmental management, employee health and safety, workforce management and equality, community and landowner engagement, and strong corporate governance and ethics. We are committed to sustainability and responsible stewardship across all of our operations and land management activities.

As we do not produce oil or gas from the land from which our royalty revenue stream is derived, we developed our sustainability goals and partnership opportunities in consultation with the entities operating on our land. On the water solutions side of our business, we developed a tailored ESG program that addresses the ethical and responsible buildout of water assets and management of water as a natural resource. Our continued goal is an integrated and iterative approach to sustainable and responsible resource management.

Our ESG accomplishments include, but are not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*•* Increased the electrification of our water assets in an effort to reduce costs and mitigate our overall emission profile by reducing reliance on diesel generators. Cumulatively through December 31, 2025, we have spent $25.2 million of capital on electric infrastructure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Initiated energy tracking in 2020 to monitor and identify trends in energy consumption and sourcing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Prioritized the health and welfare of our workforce.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Employed practices for the tracking and monitoring of all spills, regardless of whether they are within or outside of regulatory reporting requirements. We had zero spills of produced water in 2025, 2024, and 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Partnered with oil & gas operators on our surface estate to collectively discuss and manage ESG risks. Partnership opportunities included: developing renewable energy infrastructure across our land, developing water infrastructure to support the reuse and recycling of produced water—a critical response to climate change, partnering to develop new technologies that support emissions management, and more.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Instituted a governance framework that includes oversight and stewardship of our ESG strategies. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee") of our Board reviews our policies and programs concerning corporate social responsibility, including ESG matters, with the support of the Audit Committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee") and the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee"), where appropriate. The committees provide guidance to the Board and management with respect to trends and developments regarding environmental, social, governance, and political matters that could significantly impact the Company.

The disclosure denotes that our ESG strategy, including metrics and targets, is continuously reviewed to determine if updates or process improvements are needed.

**Human Capital Resources**

We believe we have a talented, motivated and dedicated team, and we are committed to supporting the development of our team members and continuously building on our strong culture. As of December 31, 2025, we had 114 full-time employees, of which 35 were employees of TPWR.

Our business strategy and ability to serve customers relies on employing talented professionals and attracting, training, developing and retaining a knowledgeable skilled workforce. We maintain a good working relationship with our employees. We value our employees and their experience in providing value through land, mineral and water resource management and water solutions. Maintaining a robust pipeline of talent is crucial to our ongoing success and is a key aspect of succession planning efforts across the organization. Our leadership and human resources teams are responsible for attracting and retaining top talent by facilitating an environment where employees feel supported and encouraged in their professional and personal development. We are committed to enhancing gender, racial and ethnic diversity throughout our organization. We believe that diversity is an important factor in bringing people together, encouraging shared commitment and fostering new ideas.

We strive to be a great place for our employees to work. Accordingly, we offer industry competitive pay and benefits, tuition reimbursement and continuing education classes and are committed to maintaining a workplace environment that promotes employee productivity and satisfaction.

Employee safety is also among our top priorities. Accordingly, we have developed and administer company-wide policies to ensure a safe and fair workplace free of discrimination or harassment for each team member and compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA") standards, as further discussed in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. This commitment applies to recruiting, hiring, compensation, benefits, training, termination, promotions or any other terms and conditions of employment. We maintain our strong focus on safety and have taken measures to protect our employees and maintain safe, reliable operations.

We have a goal of zero occupational injuries, illnesses and incidents in our workplace. To ensure that we protect our safety culture, we have in place a dedicated Health, Safety, and Environment Management team with substantial combined years of experience and have in-house authorized trainers for OSHA-required certified training, powered equipment training and PCE-safe land certificated training.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors.** 

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

**Risks Related to Our Business**

***Our oil and gas royalties are dependent upon the market prices of oil and gas which fluctuate.***

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

***We are not an oil and gas producer. Our revenues from oil and gas royalties are subject to the actions of others.***

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

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• future oil, gas, and NGL prices;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• unexpected complications from offset well development;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• production rates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reservoir pressures, decline rates, drainage areas and reservoir limits;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• interpretation of subsurface conditions including geological and geophysical data;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• potential for water encroachment or mechanical failures;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• levels and timing of capital expenditures, lease operating expenses, production taxes and income taxes, and availability of funds for such expenditures; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• effects of government regulation.

If any of these assumptions prove to be incorrect, our estimates of PDP reserves, the classifications of reserves based on risk of recovery and our estimates of the future net cash flows from our reserves could change significantly.

Estimates of our proved, developed and producing reserves and related valuations as of December 31, 2025 were prepared by Ryder Scott, which conducted a well-by-well review of all wells in which we have a mineral or royalty interest for the period covered by its reserve report using information provided by us. Over time, we may make material changes to reserve estimates. Some of our reserve estimates were made without the benefit of a lengthy production history, which are less reliable than estimates based on a lengthy production history. Our reserve estimates could differ materially from those reserve estimates of operators developing on our acreage. Numerous changes over time to the assumptions on which our reserve estimates are based, as described above, may result in the actual quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered being different from our reserve estimates.

***The loss of key members of our management team or difficulty attracting and retaining experienced technical personnel could reduce our competitiveness and prospects for future success.***

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

***Demand for TPWR's products and services is substantially dependent on the levels of expenditures by our customers.***

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

***We face the risks of doing business in a new and rapidly evolving market for TPWR and may not be able to successfully address such risks and achieve acceptable levels of success or profits.***

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• pricing pressure driven by new competition;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• volatile and/or unexpected operating and maintenance costs;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• increased regulation, including with respect to environmental and geological uses and impacts on industry operations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• uncertainty regarding outsourced third-parties providing water treatment services.

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

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

***The impact of government regulation on TPWR could adversely affect our business.***

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

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

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

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

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

***Our revenues from the sale of land are subject to substantial fluctuation. Land sales are subject to many factors that are beyond our control.***

Our land sales vary widely from year to year and quarter to quarter. The total price obtained, the average price per acre, and the number of acres sold in any one year or quarter should not be assumed to be indicative of future land sales. Our desire to sell and the demand and pricing for any particular tract of our land is influenced by many factors, including but not limited to: (i) access and location, (ii) the national and local economies, (iii) the rate of oil and gas well development by operators, (iv) the rate of development in nearby areas, (v) the livestock carrying capacity, and (vi) the condition of the local

------

industries, which itself is influenced by a range of conditions. Our ability to sell land can be, therefore, largely dependent on the actions of adjoining landowners.

***A third party has refused to continue to fulfill its obligations under existing arrangements to which the Trust was a party in connection with the completion of our Corporate Reorganization, and thereby may cause us to lose certain benefits that the Trust historically received.***

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

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

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

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

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

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

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

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

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

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

***Cyber incidents or attacks targeting the systems and infrastructure used by us, our operators, other third parties with whom we do business or the oil and gas industry in general may adversely impact our operations, and if we are unable to obtain and maintain adequate protection of our data, our business may be adversely impacted.***

We and our operators increasingly rely on information technology systems to operate our respective businesses, and the oil and gas industry depends on digital technologies in exploration, development, production, and processing activities. Our technologies, systems and networks, and those of the operators on our properties and our vendors, suppliers and other business partners, have in certain instances been, and may in the future become, the target of cyberattacks or information security breaches that could result in the unauthorized release, gathering, monitoring, misuse, loss or destruction of proprietary, personal and other information, or other disruption of business activities. Even without a direct breach of our systems, cybersecurity attacks on such third parties could adversely impact our business and reputation. In addition, certain cyber incidents, such as surveillance, may remain undetected for some period of time.

While we utilize various systems, procedures and controls to mitigate exposure to cybersecurity attacks and prevent cybersecurity incidents, such systems, procedures and controls may be breached as a result of third-party action, employee error, third-party or employee malfeasance or otherwise. Globally, cybersecurity attacks are increasing in number, and the threat actors are increasingly organized and well financed, or at times supported by state actors. In addition, geopolitical tensions or conflicts may create a heightened risk of cybersecurity attacks. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access or to sabotage systems change frequently, we may not be able to anticipate these techniques and implement adequate preventative or protective measures.

Our cyber liability insurance coverage may not be sufficient or may not be available in the future on acceptable terms, or at all. In addition, our cyber liability insurance policy may cover only a portion of losses incurred in investigating or remediating a cybersecurity incident, if at all, and may not cover all claims made against us. As cybersecurity threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to modify or enhance our protective measures or to investigate and remediate any vulnerability to cyber incidents. Any actual or perceived cybersecurity incident could adversely affect our business, financial position or results of operations.

**Risks Related to Our Common Stock**

***The market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate significantly.***

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our results of operations due to factors related to our business;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes to the regulatory and legal environment under which we operate;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reports issued by securities analysts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• investor perception of our Company and our industry;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• actual or anticipated fluctuations in commodities prices; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• domestic and worldwide economic and geopolitical conditions.

***We may not continue to pay dividends or to pay dividends at the same rate as previously paid.***

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

***We will evaluate whether to repurchase our outstanding Common Stock in the future and we cannot guarantee the timing or amount of share repurchases, if any.***

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

***The issuance of additional Common Stock in the future would dilute other stockholders.***

Holders of our Common Stock could be diluted because of equity issuances for proposed acquisitions or capital market transactions or equity awards proposed to be granted to our directors, officers and employees subject to any required vote of holders of our Common Stock under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws ("the Bylaws"). We may issue stock-based awards, including annual awards, new hire awards and periodic retention awards, as applicable, to our directors, officers and other employees under any employee benefits plans we have adopted or may adopt, using newly issued shares rather than treasury shares as is currently our practice.

In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue, without the approval of our stockholders, one or more series of preferred stock having such designations, powers, preferences, privileges and relative, participating, optional and special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions as the Board may generally determine in its sole discretion. The terms of one or more classes or series of preferred stock could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our Common Stock. For example, we could grant the holders of preferred stock the right to elect members of the Board or to veto specified transactions. Similarly, the repurchase or redemption rights or liquidation preferences that we could assign to holders of preferred stock could affect the residual value of our Common Stock.

***State law and anti-takeover provisions could enable our Board to resist a takeover attempt by a third party and limit the power of our stockholders.***

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, Bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions that are intended to deter coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage prospective acquirers to negotiate with our Board rather than to attempt a hostile takeover. These provisions include, among others: (a) the ability of our remaining directors to fill vacancies on our Board; (b) the ability of our Board to adopt, amend or repeal bylaws; (c) rules regarding how stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at stockholder meetings; and (d) the right of our Board to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval.

In addition, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended ("DGCL"), which could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control that you may favor. Section 203 provides that, subject to limited exceptions, persons that acquire, or are affiliated with persons that acquire, more than 15% of the outstanding voting stock of a Delaware corporation may not engage in a business combination with that corporation, including by merger, consolidation or acquisitions of additional shares, for a three-year period following the date on which that person or any of its affiliates becomes the holder of more than 15% of the corporation's outstanding voting stock.

We believe these provisions protect our stockholders from coercive or otherwise unfair takeover tactics by requiring potential acquirers to negotiate with our Board and by providing our Board with more time to assess any acquisition proposal. These provisions are not intended to make the Company immune from takeovers; however, these provisions apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by some stockholders and could delay or prevent an acquisition that our Board determines is not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. These provisions may also prevent or discourage attempts to remove and replace incumbent directors.

***Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas as the sole and exclusive forums for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could discourage lawsuits against the Company and our directors and officers.***

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that unless the Company otherwise determines, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any state or federal court residing within the State of Delaware) or the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas in Dallas, Texas (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any district court in Dallas County in the State of Texas) will be the sole and exclusive forums for any derivative action brought on our behalf, any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers, employees or stockholders, any action or proceeding asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers, employees or agents arising pursuant to, or seeking to enforce any right, obligation or remedy under any provision of the DGCL, the laws of the State of Texas, the laws of the State of New York, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our Bylaws or any action asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers, employees or agents governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in each such case, subject to the applicable court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants in such action or proceeding. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation also provides that unless our Board otherwise determines, the federal district courts of the United States will be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

To the fullest extent permitted by law, this exclusive forum provision will apply to state and federal law claims, including claims under the federal securities laws, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. The enforceability of similar exclusive forum provisions in other companies' certificates of incorporation has been challenged in legal proceedings, and it is possible that, in connection with one or more actions or proceedings described above, a court could rule that one or more parts of the exclusive forum provision in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation is inapplicable or unenforceable.

This exclusive forum provision may limit the ability of our stockholders to bring a claim in a judicial forum that such stockholders find favorable for disputes with the Company or our directors or officers, which may discourage such lawsuits against the Company and our directors and officers. Alternatively, if a court were to find this exclusive forum provision inapplicable to, or unenforceable in respect of, one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings described above, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could negatively affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

**Risks Related to Our Industry**

***Our business and financial results could be disrupted by natural or human causes beyond our control****.*

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

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

***Our business and financial results are subject to major trends in our industry, such as decarbonization, and may be adversely affected by future developments that are out of our control.***

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

***Our business could be negatively affected as a result of the actions of activists.***

Our business could be negatively affected as a result of stockholder activism, which could cause us to incur significant expense, hinder execution of our business strategy, and impact the trading value of our securities. In the past, we have been the subject of stockholder activism, and we are subject to the risks associated with any ongoing or future such activism. Stockholder activism, including potential proxy contests, requires significant time and attention by management and our Board, potentially interfering with our ability to execute our strategic plan. We have incurred, and may in the future be required to incur, significant legal fees and other expenses related to activist stockholder matters, and the attention of our management may be diverted by such activism. While we welcome our stockholders' constructive input, stockholder actions may result in negative impacts to the Company. Any of these impacts could materially and adversely affect our business and operating results, and the market price of our Common Stock could be subject to significant fluctuation or otherwise be adversely affected by stockholder activism.

**Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.**

Not Applicable.

**Item 1C. Cybersecurity.**

We have established policies, standards, processes and practices for assessing, identifying, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. We have devoted substantial financial and personnel resources to implement and maintain security measures to meet regulatory requirements, and we intend to continue to make significant investments to maintain the security of our data and cybersecurity infrastructure. Despite these efforts, our policies and procedures may not be properly followed in every instance and may not always be effective. Our risk factors, which can be found in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors," include further detail about the material cybersecurity risks we face. We have had no cybersecurity incidents or other risks from cybersecurity threats to date that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, us, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

**Cyber Risk Management and Strategy**

*Overview*

We employ a risk-based approach to cybersecurity which aligns with our corporate strategy, risk management and governance, and adaptable information technology ("IT") infrastructure. Our cybersecurity program consists of policies, procedures, systems, controls and technology designed to help prevent, identify, detect and mitigate cybersecurity risk and is based on the National Institute of Standards and Technology ("NIST") Cybersecurity framework.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*Collaboration*

We have integrated cybersecurity risk management into our overall risk management framework by (i) maintaining disaster recovery, business continuity and security incident recovery plans, (ii) conducting annual enterprise and IT risk assessments, (iii) implementing periodic key risk indicator tracking, and (iv) holding regular cross-departmental meetings to address cybersecurity risks.

*Risk Assessment*

Our risk management activities and cybersecurity strategy include IT policies, standards, procedures and systems to address and mitigate risks for critical system availability, network integrity, information protection, and operational continuity.

We perform vulnerability and threat monitoring mitigation activities on a regular basis and perform a cybersecurity risk assessment at least annually. Our cybersecurity risk assessment program includes the following assessments and activities:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ensure program alignment with the NIST Cybersecurity framework;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• prioritize, remediate, and ensure effectiveness of critical applications, infrastructure, and information; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• continually evaluate emerging threats and improved mitigation methods, including but not limited to, generative and agentic artificial intelligence and machine learning.

We regularly collaborate with the Company's internal audit department and third parties with security and infrastructure expertise for review and evaluation of the Company's cybersecurity risk program and the associated IT control environment. We engage third-party service providers to perform annual external and internal penetration testing, disaster recovery testing, and security incident simulations.

*Infrastructure: Network and Physical Security*

Our IT infrastructure is secured and continually monitored using a number of tools to effect physical and logical security. We strictly regulate and limit access to servers and networks. Network access is controlled by the network firewall and restricted by stringent access control lists. We also employ (i) network and endpoint intrusion prevention and detection throughout our infrastructure, (ii) systems that monitor our infrastructure and alert our management of potential cybersecurity issues and vulnerabilities, and (iii) a seasoned process for managing and installing patches for third-party applications.

We have also implemented the following protective and preventative measures:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• identity management and access control safeguards;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• encryption of data in transit and at rest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• system and network security and monitoring;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• information protection and governance; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ongoing systems and equipment maintenance.

*Incident Response and Recovery Planning*

We have instituted cybersecurity event detection systems, methods, and supporting processes to perform continuous monitoring, identify and classify events and anomalies, take appropriate actions when necessary, and report incidents to the appropriate parties. Our response and recovery capabilities are designed to, among other things, contain any impacts, analyze and mitigate events, track events to resolution, provide effective stakeholder communication, recover and resume operations, and evaluate and improve systems and methods.

*Third-Party Risk Management*

We have implemented and continue to maintain our IT policies, standards, procedures, and controls to oversee, identify and manage cybersecurity risks associated with all third-party service providers. These include, but are not limited to,

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

an IT acceptable use policy, a records and information management policy, change control procedures, risk and control registry, attestation report reviews, and configuration standards.

*Education and Awareness*

Our policies require each of our employees to complete annual information security training, in addition to other training requirements. The result is an educated, informed, and prepared workforce, with an awareness of potential cybersecurity threats, how they may occur, and how to report and escalate such matters. These training efforts are supplemented with regular corporate-led communications and outreach initiatives to facilitate cybersecurity awareness and ensure employees remain vigilant and informed about cybersecurity threats and trends.

**Governance**

Both management and the Board are actively involved in the oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats. Our information security program is designed to ensure that management and the Board are adequately informed about, and provided with the tools necessary to monitor, (i) material risks from cybersecurity threats and (ii) our efforts related to the prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents.

*Role of the Board* 

The Board has delegated to the Audit Committee primary responsibility for overseeing enterprise risk management, including oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats. The Audit Committee periodically reviews TPL's policies and practices, including incident response plans, for managing cybersecurity risks to ensure that such policies and practices are appropriately tailored to our risk framework. Throughout the year, the Audit Committee receives quarterly IT and cybersecurity updates unless there is a notable event that requires immediate communication. These quarterly updates include cybersecurity risk assessment updates from our Director of Information Technology, including key risk indicators, the steps management has taken to monitor and control such cybersecurity risk exposure, and continuous improvement efforts. In addition to the risk management experience of the Audit Committee members, Barbara J. Duganier, a member of the Audit Committee, holds the CERT Cybersecurity Oversight Certification from Carnegie Mellon University.

*Role of Management*

Our cybersecurity risk is managed utilizing a multi-tiered approach by our Director of Information Technology. In addition to the Director of Information Technology, we also engage the services of a third-party chief information security officer ("CISO"). The qualifications of the Director of Information Technology include over 30 years of IT management, cybersecurity, and information governance experience. The CISO, who reports to the Director of Information Technology, has over 20 years of cybersecurity, IT management, and infrastructure consulting experience and is a certified CISO. The Director of Information Technology is regularly informed about the latest developments in cybersecurity, including potential threats, vulnerabilities, and innovative risk management techniques. This ongoing knowledge acquisition is crucial for the effective prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents.

The Director of Information Technology oversees risk management and strategy through (i) an IT operating committee (the "IT Operating Committee") made up of the Director of Information Technology, the CISO, and our department heads, which is responsible for the establishment and review of our IT governance, risk management and compliance, and (ii) an IT steering committee (the "IT Steering Committee") made up of our executives, which provides guidance and oversight to support and achieve our IT objectives, including cybersecurity objectives. Both the IT Operating Committee and the IT Steering Committee meet on a quarterly basis. The IT Operating Committee reviews monthly reports on cybersecurity incident prevention, mitigation, detection, and remediation and reviews our plans and policies related to IT processes on an annual basis. The Director of Information Technology also coordinates with our internal audit department and the Audit Committee to ensure cybersecurity is represented and addressed within our enterprise risk management strategy.

**Item 2. Properties.**

**Surface Acreage**

Our ownership of the surface estate of approximately 882,000 surface acres is comprised of numerous separate tracts, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. There were no material liens or encumbrances on our title to the surface estate of those tracts as of December 31, 2025. Of our total surface acreage, approximately 800,000 acres were assigned to the Company through the Declaration of Trust in 1888 when the Trust was formed and no value was assigned to the land at that time.

**Oil and Gas Royalty Interests**

Our oil and gas royalty interests are located solely in the United States in the Permian Basin. Our oil and gas royalty interests are comprised of royalty interests assigned through the Declaration of Trust (the "Assigned Royalty Interests") and royalty interests acquired. Our Assigned Royalty Interests as of December 31, 2025 represent the remaining oil and gas royalty interests assigned to us through the Declaration of Trust in 1888 as further discussed in Item 1. "Business." The fair market value of the Assigned Royalty Interests was not determined in 1888 when the Trust was formed and, therefore, no value is assigned to these interests on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Royalty interests acquired represent royalty interests in proved and unproved oil and gas properties.

*Summary of Estimated Proved Reserves*

We define proved reserves as proved developed producing ("PDP") reserves. PDP reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods, or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well. The Company's oil and gas properties are located in the Permian Basin.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

The PDP reserve estimates and their associated future net cash flows were prepared by Ryder Scott as of December 31, 2025. The reserve report covers only PDP reserves and does not include undeveloped minerals or royalties. The oil and natural gas PDP reserve estimates represent the Company's net ownership interest in its proved properties and were estimated in accordance with guidelines established by the SEC. Reserve studies were not prepared for periods prior to December 31, 2024. Accordingly, the comparative reserve information for those periods was derived from the December 31, 2024 reserve report by rolling volumes backwards from 2024 to 2022 to reflect historical production. Therefore, no revisions of prior estimates were recorded for these periods.

The following table presents estimated PDP reserves as of December 31, 2025:

---

|:---|:---|
| | **December 31,<br>2025** |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Natural Gas Liquids (MBbls)<sup>(1)</sup> | 24256 |
| Total (Mboe)<sup>(1)</sup> | 73116 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commonly used definitions in the oil and gas industry: "MBbls" represents one thousand barrels of crude oil, condensate or NGLs. "MMcf" represents one million cubic feet of natural gas. "MBoe" represents one thousand Boe.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*

*PDP Reserves Evaluation and Review of Estimated PDP Reserves*

The estimated PDP reserves as of December 31, 2025 are based on reserve estimates prepared by Ryder Scott. The internal and external technical persons responsible for preparing or auditing our PDP reserve estimates meet the requirements with regards to qualifications, independence, objectivity and confidentiality set forth in the Standards Pertaining to the Estimating and Auditing of Oil and Gas Reserves Information promulgated by the Society of Petroleum Engineers. Ryder Scott is a third-party engineering firm and does not own an interest in any of our properties and is not employed by us on a contingent basis. The PDP reserve analysis prepared by Ryder Scott covered 100% of our total PDP reserves for 2025. No undeveloped reserves were reported. A copy of the summary report prepared by Ryder Scott is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this Annual Report.

Under SEC rules, PDP reserves are those quantities of oil and natural gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible–from a given date forward, from known reservoirs and under existing economic conditions, operating methods and government regulations–prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. If deterministic methods are used, the SEC has defined reasonable certainty for PDP reserves as a "high degree of confidence that the quantities will be recovered." All PDP reserves as of December 31, 2025 were estimated using a deterministic method. The process of estimating the quantities of recoverable oil and natural gas reserves relies on the use of certain generally accepted analytical procedures. These analytical procedures fall into three broad categories or methods: (i) performance-based methods, (ii) volumetric-based methods, and (iii) analogy. These methods may be used singularly or in combination by the reserve evaluator in the process of estimating the quantities of reserves. In general, our PDP reserves attributable to producing wells were estimated by the performance-based method decline curve analysis, which utilized extrapolations of available historical production data. In certain cases where there was inadequate historical performance data to establish a definitive trend and where the use of production performance data as a basis for the estimates was inappropriate, the PDP reserves were estimated by analogy, or a combination of performance and analogy methods. The analogy method was used where there were inadequate historical performance data to establish a definitive trend and where the use of production performance data as a basis for the reserve estimates was considered to be inappropriate. To estimate economically recoverable PDP reserves and related future net cash flows, we considered many factors and assumptions, including the use of reservoir parameters derived from geological, geophysical and engineering data which cannot be measured directly, economic criteria based on current costs and the SEC pricing requirements and forecasts of future production rates. To establish reasonable certainty with respect to our estimated PDP reserves, the technologies and economic data used in the estimation of our PDP reserves included production data, downhole completion information, geologic data, and historical well cost and operating expense data. The process of estimating oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids reserves is complex and requires significant judgment. As a result, our petroleum engineers and geoscience professionals have an internal controls process to ensure the integrity, accuracy and timeliness of the data used to calculate PDP reserves relating to our assets primarily in the Permian Basin. Our internal technical staff met with Ryder Scott periodically during the period covered by the reserve report to discuss the assumptions and methods used in our PDP reserve estimation process. As part of the preparation of the reserve analysis, we provided historical information to Ryder Scott for our properties such as ownership interest, oil and gas production, gas processing and product recovery assumptions and commodity prices.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

Our petroleum engineers are primarily responsible for overseeing the preparation of all reserve estimates, reviewing the data provided and the results for reasonableness, and overseeing communications with our independent reserve engineer. Our engineering staff have an average of approximately 20 years of industry experience per person. Our technical staff uses historical information for our properties such as ownership interest, oil and natural gas production, and commodity prices to estimate economic lives of our properties. We limited economic forecasts to 30 years.

Ryder Scott prepared an estimate of the PDP reserves of the Company as of December 31, 2025.

The internal control procedures utilized in the preparation of such PDP reserve estimates are intended to ensure reliability of reserve estimations, and include, but are not limited to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review and verification of historical production data, which is based on actual production as reported by our operators;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Preparation of interim quarterly reserve estimates by our internal reserve engineers and supervision of the preparation of annual reserve estimates by the primary external reserve engineers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review by the reserve engineers of all of our reported PDP reserves at the close of each quarter, including the review of all significant reserve changes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review and verification of historical realized commodity prices and differentials from index prices provided to the external reserve engineer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review of any differences between internal calculations and external reserves estimates by our management and internal engineering staff and confirming any differences are not more than the established audit tolerance guideline of 10 percent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Review of the PDP reserve estimates by our Audit Committee with our executive team and Ryder Scott on an annual basis;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Verification of property ownership by our land department; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• No employee's compensation is tied to the amount of reserves booked.

*Productive Wells*

Productive wells consist of producing wells, wells with at least one month of reported production. As of December 31, 2025, we owned mineral or royalty interests in over 11,346 gross productive wells, which consisted of 8,959 oil wells and 2,387 natural gas wells – over 62 net oil wells and over 48 net natural gas wells.

**Our Facilities**

We lease office space in Dallas, Texas for our corporate headquarters and in Midland, Texas for TPWR.

**Overview**

TPL was originally organized in 1888 as a business trust to hold title to extensive tracts of land in the State of Texas that were previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. On January 11, 2021, we completed our Corporate Reorganization from a business trust to a corporation and changed our name from Texas Pacific Land Trust to Texas Pacific Land Corporation.

Our business activity is generated from our surface and royalty interest ownership, primarily in the Permian Basin. Our revenues are derived from oil and gas royalties, water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related income and land sales. Due to the nature of our operations and concentration of our ownership in one geographic location, our revenue and net income are subject to substantial fluctuations from quarter to quarter and year to year. In addition to fluctuations in response to changes in the market price for oil and gas, our financial results are subject to decisions by not only the owners and operators of oil and gas wells to which our oil and gas royalty interests relate, but also to other owners and operators in the Permian Basin as it relates to our other revenue streams, principally water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related revenue.

**Market Conditions**

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

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

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

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

**Permian Basin Activity**

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

Due to our ownership concentration in the Permian Basin, our revenues are directly impacted by oil and gas pricing and drilling activity in the Permian Basin. The metrics below show selected benchmark oil and natural gas prices and approximate activity levels in the Permian Basin for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

---

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commonly used definitions in the oil and gas industry: "WTI Cushing" represents West Texas Intermediate. "Bbl" represents one barrel of 42 U.S. gallons of crude oil, condensate or NGLs. "Mmbtu" represents one million British thermal units, a measurement used for natural gas. "DUCs" represent drilled but uncompleted wells. DUC classification is based on well data and date stamps provided by Enverus. DUCs is based on wells that have a drilled/spud date stamp but do not have a completed or first production date stamp. Excludes wells that have been labeled plugged and abandoned or permit expired and wells drilled/spud more than five years ago.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Permian Basin specific information per Enverus analytics. U.S. weekly horizontal rig counts per Baker Hughes United States Rotary Rig Count for horizontal rigs. Statistics for similar data are also available from other sources. The comparability between these other sources and the sources used by the Company may differ.*

While average oil prices for the year ended December 31, 2025 were lower compared to the same period in 2024, Henry Hub and Waha Hub natural gas prices for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased compared to the same period last year. E&P companies broadly have continued to deploy capital towards drilling and development activities in the Permian Basin at a measured pace. Although average rig counts during the year ended December 31, 2025 were lower compared to the same period last year, increased drilling and completion efficiencies have allowed operators, in aggregate, to grow production. As we are a significant landowner in the Permian Basin and not an oil and gas producer, our revenue is affected by the development decisions made by companies that operate in the areas where we own royalty interests and land. Accordingly, these decisions made by others affect, both directly and indirectly, our oil and gas royalties, produced water royalties, water sales, and other surface-related income.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

*Overview*

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash flows generated from operations and our Credit Facility. Our primary liquidity and capital requirements are for acquisitions, capital expenditures related to our Water Services and Operations segment (the extent and timing of which are under our control), working capital, and general corporate needs.

We continuously review our levels of liquidity and capital resources. If market conditions were to change and our revenues were to decline significantly or operating costs were to increase significantly, our cash flows and liquidity could be reduced. Should this occur, we could draw on our Credit Facility or seek alternative sources of funding. As of December 31, 2025, we had no debt, draws on our Credit Facility, and no off-balance sheet arrangements that require us to provide funding, guarantees, or other forms of financial support.

As we evaluate our current capital structure, capital allocation priorities, business fundamentals, and investment opportunities, we have set a target cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $700 million. Above this target, we will seek to deploy the majority of our free cash flow towards returning capital to our stockholders in the form of special dividends and/or share repurchases. As of December 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $144.8 million that we expect to utilize, along with cash flow from operations, to provide capital to support our business, to pay regular dividends, subject to the discretion of our Board, to, subject to market conditions, repurchase shares of our Common Stock, for potential acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. We believe that cash from operations and our cash and cash equivalents balance together with our Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet ongoing capital expenditures, working capital requirements and other cash needs and allow for opportunistic transactions for at least the next 12 months.

*Acquisition and Investment Activity* 

We completed the following asset acquisitions and investment during 2025:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In March 2025, we acquired 177 NRA located primarily in the Midland Basin for an aggregate purchase price of $3.5 million, net of post-closing adjustments, in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In May 2025, we acquired 787 acres of land in Reeves County, Texas for an aggregate purchase price, inclusive of closing costs, of $4.5 million in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In September 2025, we acquired 8,147 acres of land in Martin, County Texas for an aggregate purchase price, inclusive of closing costs, of $31.4 million in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In November 2025, we acquired 17,306 NRA located primarily in the Midland Basin in Martin, Howard, Midland, and other counties for an aggregate purchase price of $450.7 million, net of post-closing adjustments, in an all-cash transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• In December 2025, we made a minority investment of $50.0 million in Bolt pursuant to a strategic agreement to develop and enable large scale data center campuses and supporting infrastructure across our land.

See Part I, Item 1. "Business — Recent Developments" for further discussion of our acquisition and investment activity during 2025.

*Revolving Credit Facility*

On October 23, 2025, we entered into a Credit Facility in the aggregate principal amount of up to $500.0 million, and the ability to request potential increases in the commitments of the lenders of up to an additional $250.0 million; provided that any such request for an increase must be in a minimum amount of $50.0 million or, if less, the amount remaining available for all such increases. The Credit Facility and all borrowings thereunder will mature on October 23, 2029.

The borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum (i) for each SOFR loan, equal to term SOFR for such interest period plus (x) 2.25% if our consolidated total leverage ratio is less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0 or (y) 2.50% if our consolidated total leverage ratio is greater than 2.0 to 1.0 or (ii) for each base rate loan, equal to the base rate plus (x) 1.25% if our consolidated total leverage ratio is less than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0 or (y) 1.50% if our consolidated total

------

leverage ratio is greater than 2.0 to 1.0. The base rate for any day is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% of 1%, (b) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced by the Administrative Agent as its prime rate, and (c) term SOFR for a one-month tenor in effect on such day plus 1.00%. We are also required to pay customary letter of credit fees.

We intend to draw on the facility primarily for capital expenditures, ongoing working capital, acquisitions and general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be unsecured with a springing security interest in substantially all equity securities of our subsidiaries in the event our consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 2.50 to 1.0. The Credit Facility also contains customary financial and other affirmative and negative covenants.

The events of default under the Credit Facility include, among others, payment defaults, breaches of covenants, defaults under the related loan documents, material misrepresentations, cross defaults with certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, judgment defaults, certain events related to plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, invalidity of the Credit Facility or the related loan documents and change in control events. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the termination of commitments and letter of credit extensions, the acceleration of our obligations under the Credit Facility, the requirement to post cash collateral with respect to letters of credit and the exercise of the Lenders of all rights and remedies under the Credit Facility.

No draws had been made under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2025, and the Credit Facility remained undrawn as of the date of this Annual Report.

*Return of Capital to Stockholders*

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid total dividends to our stockholders of $147.8 million, consisting of cumulative regular cash dividends of $2.13 per share. In addition, we repurchased $8.4 million of our Common Stock during the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Development of New Solutions for Produced Water and Capital Expenditures*

In 2024, we announced our progress towards developing a patented energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and associated equipment that can recycle produced water into fresh water with quality standards appropriate for surface discharge and beneficial reuse. With the Permian Basin generating over 20 million barrels of produced water per day, this technology provides an attractive and critical alternative to subsurface injection. We have begun construction of our test facility, which will have an initial capacity of 10,000 barrels of water per day, with an estimated service date in the first half of 2026. Cumulatively through December 31, 2025, we have spent $45.5 million ($33.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2025) on this new energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and equipment, of which $38.8 million had been capitalized as of December 31, 2025.

Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2025, we invested approximately $24.9 million to enhance our water sourcing assets.

*Cash Flows from Operating Activities*

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $545.9 million and $490.7 million, respectively. Our cash flow provided by operating activities is primarily from oil, gas and produced water royalties, water and land sales, easements, and other surface-related income. Cash flow used in operations generally consists of operating expenses associated with our revenue streams, general and administrative expenses and income taxes.

The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in operating income, principally related to increased oil and gas production volumes and water sales volumes, and changes in working capital requirements during 2025 as compared to 2024.

*Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities* 

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $595.8 million and $471.7 million, respectively. Our cash flows used in investing activities are primarily related to royalty acquisitions, investments and purchases of fixed assets primarily related to our Water Services and Operations segment. Our acquisitions may include royalty interests, land and other similar tangible and intangible assets.

For further information regarding acquisitions and investment activity during the year ended December 31, 2025, see "Acquisition and Investment Activity" above. Purchases of fixed assets for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $59.5 million and $29.7 million, respectively.

*Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities*

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $176.0 million and $378.1 million, respectively. Our cash flows used in financing activities principally consist of activities that return capital to our stockholders such as payments of dividends and repurchases of our Common Stock, and activity related to our Credit Facility.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid total dividends of $147.8 million, consisting of cumulative regular cash dividends of $2.13 per share. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we paid total dividends of $347.3 million consisting of cumulative regular cash dividends of $1.70 per share and a special dividend of $3.33 per share. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, employees surrendered $14.8 million and $1.6 million in shares, respectively, to the Company to settle tax withholdings related to stock vesting. We repurchased $8.4 million and $29.2 million of our Common Stock during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Debt issuance cost in connection with the Credit Facility was $5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. We had no draws or repayments on the Credit Facility during the year ended December 31, 2025.

**Consolidated Results of Operations**

**Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024**

Total revenues were $798.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $705.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Total operating expenses were $206.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $166.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Net income was $481.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $454.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Individual revenue and expense line items are discussed below under "Segment Results of Operations."

**Segment Results of Operations**

We operate our business in two reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. We eliminate any inter-segment revenues and expenses, if any, upon consolidation.

We evaluate the performance of our operating segments separately to monitor the different factors affecting financial results. The reportable segments presented are consistent with our reportable segments discussed in Note 16, "Business Segment Reporting" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." We monitor our reporting segments based upon revenue and net income calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

Our oil and gas royalty revenue, and, in turn, our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 have been impacted by lower average commodity prices compared to 2024. However, our oil and gas royalty revenues increased for the year ended December 31, 2025 due to increased royalty production. Additionally, revenues derived from water sales and produced water royalties for the year ended December 31, 2025 were also positively impacted by our active management of our surface and royalty interests in recent years.

**Year Ended December 31, 2025 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2024** 

***Land and Resource Management***

*Oil and gas royalties*. Oil and gas royalty revenue was $411.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $373.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of 10.3%. Our share of production volumes increased to 34.6 thousand Boe per day for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 26.8 thousand Boe per day for 2024. The average realized prices decreased to $34.18 per Boe for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $39.87 per Boe for 2024, a decrease of 14.3%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commonly used definitions in the oil and gas industry: "Bbl" represents one barrel of 42 U.S. gallons of crude oil, condensate or NGLs. "Boe" represents barrels of oil equivalent. "NGL" represents natural gas liquid. "MBbls" represents one thousand barrels of crude oil, condensate or NGLs. "Mcf" represents one thousand cubic feet of natural gas. "MMcf" represents one million cubic feet of natural gas. "MBoe" represents one thousand Boe. "MBoe/d" represents one thousand Boe per day.*

*Easements and other surface-related income.* Easements and other surface-related income was $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of 24.0% compared to $63.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. Easements and other surface-related income includes revenue related to the use and crossing of our land for oil and gas exploration and production, renewable energy, and agricultural operations. The increase in easements and other surface-related income was principally related to increases of $10.0 million in pipeline easements, $3.8 million in wellbore easements and $2.5 million in lease bonuses on acquired royalty interests for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. The amount of income derived from pipeline easements is a function of the term of the easement, the size of the easement, and the number of easements entered into for any given period. Easements and other surface-related income is dependent on development decisions made by companies that operate in the areas where we own land and is, therefore, unpredictable and may vary significantly from period to period. See "Permian Basin Activity" above for additional discussion of development activity in the Permian Basin during the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Land sales*. Land sales were $0.8 million and $4.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we sold 17 acres of land for an aggregate sales price of $0.8 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we sold 439 acres of land for an aggregate sales price of approximately $4.4 million.

*Salaries and related employee expenses.* Salaries and related employee expenses, which include not only salaries, equity and non-equity incentive compensation, but also employee benefits and contract labor expense, were $29.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $27.5 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in salaries and related employee expenses was principally related to market compensation adjustments that take effect annually at the start of a given year.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*General and administrative expenses.* General and administrative expenses were $14.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $25.5 million for the same period of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in legal and professional fees of $11.9 million over the same period of 2024.

*Depreciation, depletion and amortization.* Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $44.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $11.0 million for the same period of 2024. The increase was principally due to depletion expense associated with royalty interests acquired during the second half of both 2025 and 2024.

*Other income, net.* Other income, net was $14.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $31.7 million for the same period of 2024. Lower cash balances and investment yields during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 resulted in a decrease in interest income. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a curtailment and settlement gain of $3.3 million related to our pension plan. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2024, we received $1.9 million of proceeds from a settlement with a title company regarding a defect in title to a property acquired in a previous year.

***Water Services and Operations***

*Water sales*. Water sales revenue increased $19.0 million to $169.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $150.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The growth in water sales was principally due to increases of 8.8% in water sales pricing and 3.4% in volumes for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Produced water royalties.* Produced water royalties are royalties received from the transfer or disposal of produced water on our land. Produced water royalties are contractual and not paid as a matter of right. We do not operate any saltwater disposal wells. Produced water royalties were $124.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $104.1 million in 2024. This increase was principally due to a 24.6% increase in produced water volumes for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024.

The table below provides financial and operational data by water revenue type for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MBbl = 1 thousand barrels of water.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;MBbl/d = 1 thousand barrels of water per day.*

*Easements and other surface-related income*. Easements and other surface-related income was $13.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $3.4 million compared to $10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in easements and other surface-related income primarily related to an increase in temporary permits for sourced water lines for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024.

*Salaries and related employee expenses.* Salaries and related employee expenses, which include not only salaries, equity and non-equity incentive compensation, but also employee benefits and contract labor expense, were $28.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $26.1 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in salaries and related

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

employee expenses is principally related to increased contract labor costs associated with development of an in-house water management application and market compensation adjustments that take effect annually at the start of the year.

*Water service-related expenses.* Water service-related expenses increased $7.4 million to $53.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2024. Certain types of water service-related expenses, including, but not limited to, treatment, transfer, water purchases, repairs and maintenance, equipment rental, and fuel costs vary from period to period as our customers' needs and requirements change. Right of way and other expenses also vary from period to period depending on the location of customer delivery. The increase in water service-related expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 was principally related to increased water sales volumes compared to the same period of 2024. Research and development expenses related to development of a new energy-efficient method of produced water desalination and treatment were $2.8 million and $2.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. For further discussion of this new treatment method, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources — Development of New Solutions for Produced Water and Capital Expenditures" above.

*Depreciation, depletion and amortization.* Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $18.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $14.2 million for the comparable period of 2024. The increase was principally due to depreciation expense related to new water service-related assets placed in service.

*Other income, net.* Other income, net was $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $8.0 million for the same period of 2024. Lower cash balances and investment yields during the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 resulted in a decrease in interest income. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a curtailment and settlement gain of $1.3 million related to our pension plan.

*Income tax expense.* Income tax expense was $42.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to $38.5 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in income tax expense was directly attributable to the increase in operating income for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024.

**Non-GAAP Performance Measures**

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 to evaluate our 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 pension curtailment and settlement gain. The pension curtailment and settlement gain are related to a buyout by a third party of defined benefit obligations under our pension plan and the subsequent freezing of our pension plan, both of which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2024. We have excluded the pension curtailment and settlement gain from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA as such gain is a non-recurring item and is not related to our core business.

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 to evaluate our 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 the cash outflows of current income tax expenses, purchases of fixed assets and pension curtailment and settlement gain.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

We have presented EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow because we believe that these metrics are useful supplements to net income in analyzing our operating performance, ability to fund future acquisitions, ability to return capital to our stockholders and explaining how our Named Executive Officers (as defined below) are compensated. Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.

We have not entered into off-balance sheet arrangements that require us to provide funding, guarantees or any other form of financial support.

**Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. It is our opinion that we fully disclose our significant accounting policies in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Consistent with our disclosure policies, we include the following discussion related to what we believe to be our most critical accounting policies that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgment and estimates.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*Accrual of Oil and Gas Royalties*

We accrue oil and gas royalties. An accrual is necessary due to the time lag between the removal of crude oil and gas products from the respective mineral reserve locations and generation of the actual payment by operators. The oil and gas royalty accrual is based upon historical production volumes, estimates of the timing of future payments and recent market prices for oil and gas.

*Oil and Gas Reserves*

We account for our acquired oil and gas royalty interests using the successful-efforts method. Under this method, costs to acquire oil and gas royalty interests are capitalized. Acquisition costs associated with non-producing oil and gas royalty interests are recorded as unproved properties until the results of leasing and drilling activities performed by third-party exploration and production operators provide sufficient information to determine whether such interests contain proved reserves. When unproved properties are determined to have proved developed producing reserves ("PDP"), the related capitalized costs are transferred to proved oil and gas properties. The Company only reports PDP reserves as we do not control the timing or development of drilling activities.

The estimation of PDP oil and gas reserves involves significant judgment by independent petroleum engineers. Reserve estimates rely on geological and engineering analysis, production data, the development and operating plans of third-party operators on our acreage, and assumptions regarding commodity prices and economic conditions. Because we calculate depletion of proved oil and gas royalty interests on a unit-of-production basis, changes in reserve estimates influence the rate at which capitalized costs are depleted and the timing of transfers from unproved to proved properties.

We group oil and gas royalty interests for depletion using a reasonable aggregation of properties with similar geological or stratigraphic characteristics. Reserve estimates are updated at least annually, or more frequently when new information becomes available. Revisions to these estimates whether due to operator development activity, production performance, technical analysis, or changes in economic assumptions result in prospective adjustments to depletion and may impact the pattern in which capitalized costs are recognized over time.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

For further information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Texas Pacific Land Corporation

**Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Texas Pacific Land Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control* — *Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control* — *Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, of the Company and our report dated February 18, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

**Basis for Opinion**

The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting**

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Stockholders and other interested persons who wish to contact the Board may do so by submitting any communications to the Company by mail at 2699 Howell Street, Suite 800, Dallas, Texas 75204, Attention: Investor Relations, with an instruction to forward the communication to a particular director or the Board as a whole. Our Board has created a number of ways for stockholders and other stakeholders to provide input and hear from management, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Attending an annual meeting of stockholders and submitting questions to be addressed during the meeting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Attending quarterly earnings calls, investor conferences, and other similar opportunities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Sending an email to our Investor Relations department at IR@texaspacific.com;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Mailing a letter to us at 2699 Howell Street, Suite 800, Dallas, Texas 75204, Attention: Investor Relations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Requesting a stockholder engagement meeting via one of the means outlined here.

Our Investor Relations team, in consultation with the General Counsel, will not forward any communication that it determines in good faith to be frivolous, unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable. The General Counsel maintains a list of each communication that was not forwarded because it was so determined to be unsuitable. Such list is delivered to the Board at its quarterly meetings. In addition, each communication that was not forwarded because it was determined to be unsuitable is retained in the Company's files and made available at the request of any member of the Board to whom such communication was addressed.

*Board Leadership Structure*

Our Board is led by the Chair. Mr. Best serves as the Chair and is an independent director. Our Bylaws and Corporate Governance Guidelines each provide that the Chair of the Board may also hold the position of Chief Executive Officer. At this time, the Board believes that separation of the Chair and Chief Executive Officer positions is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. The Board believes that such separation provides independent leadership for the Board, helps ensure critical and independent thinking with respect to the Company's strategy and performance and allows our Chief Executive Officer to focus on the Company's day-to-day business operations. Our Chief Executive Officer also serves as a member of the Board as the management representative. The Company believes this is important to make information and insight directly available to the directors in their deliberations. This structure gives the Company an appropriate, well-functioning balance between non-management and management directors that combines experience, accountability, and effective risk oversight.

The duties of the Chair include, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Chairing Board meetings and meetings of stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Establishing the agenda for each Board meeting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Leading executive sessions of the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Having authority to call Board meetings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Approving meeting schedules for the Board and information distributed to the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Consulting with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee with regard to the membership and performance evaluations of the Board and committee members; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Performing such other duties and responsibilities as may be requested by the Board.

In the event the Chair does not qualify as independent, our Corporate Governance Guidelines require the independent directors to select from among themselves a lead independent director. The duties of a lead independent director are set forth in our Corporate Governance Guidelines and include chairing Board meetings in the absence of the Chair, convening and leading executive sessions of the Board, serving as a liaison between the Chair and the independent directors, being available for consultation and director communication with major stockholders as directed by the Board, and performing such other duties and responsibilities as requested by the Board.

*Risk Oversight*

The Company believes that risk oversight is the responsibility of the Board as a whole and not solely of any one of its committees. The Board recognizes that all companies face a variety of risks, including strategic risk, reputational risk, environmental risk and operational risk. The Board periodically reviews the processes established by management to identify and manage risks and communicates with management about these processes. The Board encourages, and management promotes, a corporate culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations, including with respect to the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints or other expressions of concern received from employees of the Company or other persons. The Board also continuously assesses and analyzes, with the input of management, the most likely areas of future risk to which we may be vulnerable.

At the Board committee level, the Audit Committee regularly discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management, the Company's major litigation and financial risk exposures, compliance, cybersecurity, information technology and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. The Compensation Committee oversees risks arising from the Company's compensation and employee benefits plans, policies and programs for its employees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, with assistance from the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee, oversees our ESG program and monitors related risks. The Board and the various committee chairs address any issues identified in such discussions and reviews with management as they arise, and monitor actions, procedures or processes implemented in response.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

Our General Counsel serves as our chief compliance officer, and periodically reviews the effectiveness of the Company's compliance programs and responds to, and monitors the status and response to, compliance issues that may arise from time to time. The General Counsel reports to the Chief Executive Officer.

*Audit Committee Procedures; Procedures for Approval of Related Person Transactions*

The Audit Committee meets separately and periodically with the Company's independent auditor, the Company's Chief Financial Officer and the Director of Internal Audit to assess certain matters, including the status of the independent audit process, management and the independent auditor's assessments of the Company's financial reporting and internal controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, and management's views as to the competence, performance and independence of the independent auditor. The Audit Committee oversees the internal audit function, including its structure, personnel, budget, and annual internal audit plans. In addition, the Audit Committee, as a whole, reviews and meets to discuss the annual audited financial statements and quarterly financial statements with management and the independent auditor. The Audit Committee makes a recommendation to the Board each year as to whether the annual audited financial statements should be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Information about the procedures for approval of related person transactions is available below in Part III, Item 13. "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence — Transactions with Related Persons."

*Qualifications and Nominations of Directors*

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter provides that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee screen, recruit and interview individuals that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee believes are qualified to become members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board from time to time, and to recommend to the Board the (a) director nominees to be selected by the Board to stand for election or re-election at the annual meeting of stockholders and (b) director candidates to be appointed by the Board to fill vacancies and newly created directorships. The Board and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee determine the minimum qualifications that a director nominee should possess on a case by case basis and typically evaluate candidates based on factors including, but not limited to, a general understanding of finance, corporate governance and strategy, senior leadership experience, public company board experience, an understanding of the Company's business and industry, diversity of background, perspectives and experiences, character, whether the candidate would satisfy the independence standards of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and the other skills identified in the matrix included in Part III, Item 10, "Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance — Directors" above. The Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee aim to identify a diverse group of candidates and believe that no single criterion such as gender or minority status is determinative in obtaining diversity on the Board.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews periodically the size of the Board and oversees an annual self-evaluation of the Board and its committees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may also consider such other factors as it may deem to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Whenever the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee concludes, based on the reviews or considerations described above or due to a vacancy, that a new nominee to the Board is required or advisable, it will consider recommendations from directors, management, stockholders and, if it deems appropriate, consultants retained for that purpose. In such circumstances, it will evaluate individuals recommended by stockholders in the same manner as nominees recommended from other sources.

Stockholders who wish to nominate an individual for election as a director directly, without going through the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, must comply with the procedures in the Bylaws. The Bylaws are provided on the Company's corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

Our Board has adopted a "majority vote policy." Under this policy any nominee for director in an uncontested election who does not receive a majority of the votes cast and is an incumbent director is required to promptly tender his or her resignation, subject to acceptance by the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation or whether other action should be taken. The Board will then act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee's recommendation, and publicly disclose its decision regarding the tendered resignation within ninety (90) days from the date of the certification of the election results. A director who tenders his or her resignation will not participate in the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee nor the decision of the Board with respect to his or her resignation.

*Insider Trading Policy; Anti-Hedging Policy*

We have an Insider Trading Policy that sets forth terms, conditions, timing, limitations, and prohibitions with respect to trading in the Company's securities. The Insider Trading Policy prohibits all employees, executive officers, directors, agents, consultants and contractors from trading in the Company's securities while in possession of material nonpublic information. Such persons are also generally prohibited from hedging, including engaging in publicly-traded options, puts, calls, or other derivative instruments relating to the Company's securities, or selling the Company's securities "short." The Insider Trading Policy also requires that such persons obtain pre-approval from the Company's General Counsel for all pledges, and the deposit in margin accounts, of the Company's securities and the securities of any other company designated by the Company's General Counsel. The Insider Trading Policy also restricts directors, officers subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and certain other specifically designated employees from trading in the Company's securities during certain periods and only after they have obtained pre-clearance for trades in the Company's securities from the Company's General Counsel (or, in the case of the General Counsel, the Chief Financial Officer). While the Company is not subject to the Insider Trading Policy, it does not trade in its securities when it is in possession of material nonpublic information other than pursuant to previously adopted Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements.

*Clawback Policy*

The Company has adopted a Clawback Policy in accordance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act and Rule 10D-1 promulgated thereunder (collectively, "Section 10D"). In the event the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company's material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period, the Clawback Policy requires that covered executives must reimburse the Company, or forfeit, any excess incentive compensation received by such covered executive during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare the restatement. Executives covered by the Clawback Policy are current and former executive officers, as determined by the Board in accordance with Section 10D and the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Incentive compensation subject to the Clawback Policy includes any cash or equity compensation that is granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part on the attainment of a financial reporting measure as defined in Section 10D. The amount subject to recovery is the excess of the incentive compensation received based on the erroneous data over the incentive compensation that would have been received had it been based on the restated results.

*Board of Directors*

The Board currently consists of nine (9) directors, eight (8) of whom - Mr. Best, Gen. Cook, Ms. Duganier, Ms. Epps, Mr. Kurz, Mr. Roosa, Mr. Stahl and Ms. Woung-Chapman - are considered "independent" under the rules of the SEC and the NYSE. No director may be deemed independent unless the Board determines that he or she has no material relationship with TPL. Mr. Best serves as the Chair. In light of Mr. Best's extensive experience in the energy industry and service on public company boards, the Board believes that he is well-positioned to serve as Chair.

The Board meets at least quarterly and the independent directors serving on the Board meet in executive session (*i.e.*, without the presence of any non-independent directors and management) immediately following regularly scheduled Board meetings. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "Last Fiscal Year"), the Board met eight (8) times and acted by written consent in lieu of holding a meeting five (5) times. All of the directors attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings held by the Board and of the committees on which they served during the Last Fiscal Year. While the Company does not have a policy requiring director attendance at annual meetings of stockholders, each director is expected to attend the Company's annual meetings of stockholders. Each member of the Board attended our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders.

The Board has four standing committees, consisting of a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Strategic Acquisitions Committee. Membership of each committee is shown in the following table.

The Audit Committee Charter is provided on the Company's corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

*Compensation Committee*

The Compensation Committee consists of Barbara J. Duganier, the chair, Donald G. Cook, Karl F. Kurz and Robert Roosa.

The Strategic Acquisitions Committee Charter is provided on the Company's corporate website at www.TexasPacific.com.

*Ad Hoc Committees*

From time to time, the Board constitutes ad hoc committees, the membership, duties and compensation, if any, of which are determined by the Board.

**Item 11. Executive Compensation.** 

**Compensation Discussion and Analysis** 

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A") provides information on the compensation arrangements for each of TPL's Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer), Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), up to three other most highly compensated individuals who were serving as an executive officer at the end of the Last Fiscal Year, and up to two other individuals who would have been included as other most highly compensated individuals but who were not serving as executive officers at the end of the Last Fiscal Year, for services rendered to TPL and its subsidiaries in all capacities during the Last Fiscal Year (the "Named Executive Officers"). The compensation disclosures below reflect Fiscal Year 2025.

For Fiscal Year 2025, the following officers represented our Named Executive Officers:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Tyler Glover, our President and Chief Executive Officer

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Chris Steddum, our Chief Financial Officer

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Micheal W. Dobbs, our Senior Vice President, Secretary, and General Counsel

**Executive Summary**

Our business activity is generated from our surface and royalty interest ownership, primarily in the Permian Basin. Our revenues are derived from oil and gas royalties, water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related income and land sales. Due to the nature of our operations and concentration of our ownership in one geographic location, our revenue and net income are subject to substantial fluctuations from quarter to quarter and year to year. In addition to fluctuations in response to changes in the market price for oil and gas, our financial results are also subject to decisions by the owners and operators of not only the oil and gas wells to which our oil and gas royalty interests relate, but also to other owners and operators in the Permian Basin as it relates to our other revenue streams, principally water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related revenue.

*Business and Financial Performance 2025 Highlights*

"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Non-GAAP Performance Measures."*

*Key Objectives of 2025 Compensation Program Design*

Following a substantial redesign of our compensation programs in 2022, and based on positive feedback from our stockholders, the Compensation Committee generally maintained the overall program structure in 2025. This program design is based on typical practices among our Reference Group (see below) while reflecting the unique aspects of TPL. The compensation program design is intended to meet the following objectives:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Align executives' financial interests with the interests of our stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Tie a substantial portion of executive compensation with the Company's performance (both stock price and financial performance) to incorporate risk into the awards, while relying heavily on formulaic incentive compensation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Incorporate long-term vesting periods for a substantial portion of executive compensation to help ensure continuity of the management team;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ensure transparency for participants and stockholders about how outcomes are determined with an appropriate and competitive level of pay at risk;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Meet common governance standards for public companies, and assess and control the program to avoid creating undue risk or encouraging excessive risk-tasking by executives; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ensure a competitive compensation program.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

We believe that our program, including awards under the Texas Pacific Land Corporation 2021 Incentive Plan (the "2021 Plan"), has an appropriate balance of risk and reward in relation to our overall business strategy and that the balance of compensation elements discourages excessive risk-taking.

We have maintained the key objectives of our compensation program for 2026.

**Decision-Making Process**

*Compensation Philosophy and Approach*

TPL's 2025 executive compensation program is designed to recruit and retain an executive team and to reward performance in achieving TPL's goal of creating stockholder value. The 2025 executive compensation program consists principally of a base salary, an annual cash incentive (sometimes referred to as awards under a non-equity incentive plan), and long-term share-based compensation as discussed below:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Key Compensation Component** | **Purpose** | **Philosophy** |
| Base Salary | • Provide a competitive level of fixed compensation | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Set at a competitive level annually by the Compensation Committee and the Board, as applicable<br>• Based on evaluation of executive officers' performance and contributions and competitive market data |
| Annual Cash Incentive | • Align executive officer pay with performance<br>• Reward for achievement of annual goals, both financial and non-financial<br>• Establish strategic priorities for the year through the strategic portion of the award | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Individual target levels set at a competitive level based on competitive market data and executive officers' contribution level<br>• Payouts heavily influenced by performance against pre-set goals<br>• Portion of award earned through achievements against strategic priorities |
| Long-Term Incentives | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Align executive pay with long-term stockholder experience through share ownership<br>• Encourage long-term retention through extended vesting periods<br>• Tie executive pay outcomes to long-term performance through performance-based awards | &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Individual awards set at a competitive level based on competitive market data and executive officers' contribution level<br>• At least 50% of each executive officers' awards are performance-based<br>• Performance tied to long-term share price and financial performance, based on pre-set goals |

---

As part of its compensation program, TPL also maintains both a qualified defined benefit pension plan (the "Pension Plan") and a qualified defined contribution plan which are both available to employees generally, including the Named Executive Officers. These plans are designed to assist employees in planning for their retirement. The Pension Plan was frozen as of December 31, 2024, and no future benefit accruals were made. In conjunction with freezing the Pension Plan, the Board has approved a discretionary contribution to employees' 401(k) plan for 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the Pension Plan was terminated. See further discussion of the termination of the Pension Plan in Note 9, "Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

*Consideration of 2025 Say on Pay Vote*

At our November 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, the majority of our stockholders voted to approve our executive compensation program, with approximately 87% approval among votes cast. The Compensation Committee viewed this as support of its approach and philosophy and as a basis for continuing with the program described in this CD&A for 2025.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

In 2025, we engaged ICR, LLC ("ICR"), a strategic communications and advisory firm, to conduct a perception study survey of our stockholders to consider their perspectives on various issues, including strategy, capital allocation, governance and overall performance. Respondents generally acknowledged recent changes such as the declassification of the Board and stockholders' ability to call a special meeting as positives. Certain respondents also stated that the Company's conversion to a C-corporation has been a success. Respondents did not provide specific feedback on or suggest any changes to our compensation program.

*Role of the Compensation Committee*

The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to determine the compensation of the Named Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer and to make recommendations to the Board, which has the authority to make final decisions, with respect to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee is also responsible for developing and overseeing an equity compensation program for the Company generally for other employees, and for making recommendations to the Board with respect to compensation for non-employee directors, with assistance from the Compensation Committee's independent compensation consultant.

In establishing the Named Executive Officers' compensation for 2025, the chair of the Compensation Committee and the full Compensation Committee met multiple times, including with management and/or the Compensation Committee's independent compensation consultant, to review market practices, evaluate potential alternatives, determine appropriate metrics and goals, and review strategic goals and performance. Additionally, the Compensation Committee reviews performance evaluations of the Named Executive Officers and other officers and a self-evaluation of the Chief Executive Officer.

*Role of Management*

Our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Glover, provided recommendations for compensation for his direct reports. Additionally, the management team provided the Compensation Committee with financial performance information to assist with the assessment of company and individual performance in determining the bonuses for 2025. The Compensation Committee considered this information in its decision-making process. No member of management participated in discussions relating to his or her own compensation.

*Role of the Independent Consultant*

Since 2021, the Compensation Committee has used Meridian Compensation Partners ("Meridian") as its independent compensation consultant to assist the Compensation Committee in fulfilling its responsibilities related to the oversight of TPL's executive officer and non-employee director compensation. The Compensation Committee determined that Meridian was independent from management based upon the consideration of various relevant factors, including that Meridian did not provide any services to TPL except advisory services to the Compensation Committee, and that Meridian maintained, and adhered to, policies and procedures that were designed to prevent conflicts of interests.

The independent compensation consultant advises the Compensation Committee in the development of pay strategies regarding our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer, and non-employee directors. The Compensation Committee reviews and discusses matters involving executive officer and non-employee director compensation. Following this review, the Compensation Committee makes a determination and/or recommendation to the Board, as applicable under the Compensation Committee's Charter, regarding, among other things (a) the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and the compensation of executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, in each case including salary, bonus, benefits, incentive awards and perquisites, and (b) compensation for TPL's non-employee directors.

**Benchmarking Process**

*Determining the 2025 Compensation Program*

As described below, the Compensation Committee asked Meridian to review market data as part of the process of establishing 2025 compensation for our Named Executive Officers. As part of this process, the Compensation Committee noted that TPL is a unique organization in a number of ways:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• It is the largest publicly-traded oil and gas mineral royalty focused organization;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Unlike most mineral royalty focused organizations, TPL also owns and manages a large amount of surface rights;

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• These surface rights allow the creation of additional business lines, such as our water business and SLEM and potential investment opportunities, including data centers and power generation infrastructure;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• TPL's legacy assets carry zero basis on the balance sheet; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• TPL's financial profile is unusual with limited debt, limited book assets, and high margins. TPL also returns a significant portion of its cash flow to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases.

As a result of these unique characteristics, TPL does not have any direct peers. Instead of reviewing peer group market data, the Compensation Committee asked Meridian to review compensation for a group of comparable reference companies (the "Reference Group") that may represent our competition for executive talent. The Reference Group (listed below) represents companies which operate in ancillary businesses such as royalty/non-operating companies ("Royalty/Non-Op"), midstream companies/water companies and E&P companies that have business lines similar to TPL and are similar in market capitalization, enterprise value, and/or Adjusted EBITDA.

The table below lists the companies included in our Reference Group for purposes of determining compensation for 2025:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Royalty/Non-Op Companies** | **Midstream/Water Companies** | **E&P Companies** |
| Black Stone Minerals, L.P. | Aris Water Solutions, Inc.<sup>(1)</sup> | Civitas Resources, Inc. |
| Freehold Royalties Ltd. | DT Midstream, Inc. | Matador Resources Co |
| Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP | EnLink Midstream, LLC<sup>(1)</sup> | Ovintiv, Inc. |
| Northern Oil & Gas, Inc. | Kinetik Holdings, Inc. | Permian Resources Corp |
| PrairieSky Royalty Ltd | Select Water Solutions, Inc. | Range Resources Corp |
| Sitio Royalties Corp<sup>(1)</sup> | Western Midstream Partners, L.P. | SM Energy Co |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)The referenced company was acquired by or merged with another company in 2025.*

**2025 Compensation Program**

TPL's 2025 executive compensation program is designed to reward performance in achieving TPL's goals of creating stockholder value as detailed below.

*Base Salaries*

Our Named Executive Officers receive a base salary to provide a competitive level of fixed compensation based on each individual's role, experience, qualifications, and individual performance. The base salaries as of the end of 2025 for our Named Executive Officers were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Base Salary as of December 31, 2025** |
| Tyler Glover | $850000 |
| Chris Steddum | $545000 |
| Micheal W. Dobbs | $455000 |

---

The base salary for Mr. Glover is unchanged since 2020. The Compensation Committee increased the base salaries for Mr. Steddum and Mr. Dobbs for 2025 to better align with market data from the Reference Group.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*2025 Annual Incentive Targets* 

Each of the Named Executive Officers is eligible to earn an annual cash bonus, based on the target bonus, which is expressed as a percentage of base salary and established based on references to market data as described above. The target bonuses as a percentage of salary for each of our Named Executive Officers for 2025 is as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **2025 Target Bonus as a % of Salary** |
| Tyler Glover | 110% |
| Chris Steddum | 100% |
| Micheal W. Dobbs | 80% |

---

The target bonus as a percentage of base salary for Mr. Glover is unchanged from 2024. The Compensation Committee increased the target bonus as a percentage of base salary for Mr. Steddum and Mr. Dobbs for 2025 to better align with market data from the Reference Group.

The Compensation Committee has established a structured annual incentive program, with goals tied to key metrics for the Company, pursuant to which the bonuses discussed above are awarded. For 2025, the metrics included two performance metrics (Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow ("FCF") per fully diluted share as well as several strategic objectives, as outlined below.

*2025 Annual (Short-Term) Incentive Program Summary*

For 2025, the Compensation Committee approved a change in metrics for the short-term incentive program from Adjusted EBITDA margin to Adjusted EBITDA. As our revenue has grown year-over-year, it has become increasingly difficult to ensure alignment between maximizing FCF and increasing our Adjusted EBITDA margin. While maintaining our high Adjusted EBITDA margin remains a priority for our management team, the Compensation Committee determined that using Adjusted EBITDA as a metric for the short-term incentive program provides a more appropriate incentive for management in maximizing stockholder value. Accordingly, for 2025, annual payouts under the short-term incentive were based on the following metrics and weightings:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Metric** | **Weight** | **Rationale** |
| FCF per Fully Diluted Share<sup>(1)</sup> | 50% | Generating FCF is a high priority for TPL, which enables greater returns to stockholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases. Measuring FCF on a per share basis ensures that any share dilution is appropriately used to increase FCF. |
| Adjusted EBITDA | 25% | Generating Adjusted EBITDA is a high priority for TPL and represents a strong indicator of business performance. |
| Strategic Objectives | 25% | These objectives were established based on key strategic priorities to ensure long-term success, such as safety and environmental performance, increasing use of TPL's land, SLEM, and water services, leveraging TPL's land to explore other non-oil and gas revenue streams, increased operational enhancements through integrated technology solutions, and generating an appropriate return on new capital spend. |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)Calculated as FCF divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.*

Goals for each of the 2025 metrics were established at the beginning of 2025, based on expectations for the year. The threshold, target, and maximum levels of performance for each performance metric are outlined below. At threshold, target, and maximum performance levels, 50%, 100%, and 200% of the target bonus would be earned, respectively, for each metric.

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Metric** | **Weighting** | **Threshold** | **Target** | **Maximum** | **Actual Results** |
| FCF per Fully Diluted Share <sup>(1)</sup> | 50.0% | $4.33 | $6.67 | $9.00 | $7.22 |
| Adjusted EBITDA | 25.0% | $435000000 | $635000000 | $835000000 | $687369000 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Per share amounts reflect the December 2025 three-for-one stock split.*

Our performance against the pre-established financial goals can be heavily influenced by the impact of changes in commodity prices. To mitigate this impact, the Compensation Committee has implemented a commodity adjustment

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

calculation which uses a collar on commodity prices. Within the collar range, no adjustment is made for commodity prices. If our total commodity price realization falls below or rises above the collar range, a floor or cap on prices is applied. This provides our management team with some exposure to commodity price fluctuations, in line with our stockholders, but limits the exposure with significant changes in commodity prices. In 2025, the collar for commodity prices ranged from $30.00 per Boe to $48.00 per Boe. Actual realizations of $34.18 per Boe were within the range of the collar for 2025, thus no adjustment to price per Boe was necessary for determining Adjusted EBITDA and FCF per fully diluted share.

Based on final financial results, we exceeded the target level on both of the financial metrics, earning 124% of target on the FCF per fully diluted share metric and 126% of target on the Adjusted EBITDA metric.

The Compensation Committee also established strategic objectives for the year, which were intended to encourage our management team to take action to improve our long-term opportunities for success, but which did not directly impact financial results in 2025. The material aspects of the objectives are outlined below.

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Strategic Objectives** | **Results** |
| **Safety:** Maintain a total recordable incident rate ("TRIR") score at or below the industry average | No reported safety incidents; TRIR score is zero |
| **ESG:** Remain below FY21 Scope 1 Emissions level (assuming no significant acquisitions) | Scope 1 emissions declined 17% compared to 2021 levels resulting from electrification of water facilities |
| **Environmental:** Zero produced water spills | Zero spills |
| **Growth:** Increase out of basin disposal volumes by 100% and execute one additional long-term agreement | Exceeded disposal volume increase of 100%; Executed contract with an 8-year term. |
| **Growth:** Transmissive Phase 2B 65% operational capacity | Transmissive Phase 2B construction paused to allow testing and potential incorporation of additional desalination equipment. Construction completion expected in first half of 2026. |
| **Technology:** Develop and implement integrated solutions to improve the efficiency of manual tasks, streamline data collection and workflows, and enhance revenue management, achieving a 20% reduction in manual effort. | Accomplishments include, but are not limited to: (i) water treatment data collection and analysis - automated 90% of manual steps, saving an estimated 10-20 hours per week; (ii) developed source water application, saving an estimated eight plus days per month of manual processing; and (iii) other improvements to mineral and surface data management. |
| **Capital Returns:** For minerals/royalties, achieve 12% pre-tax cash flow yield for acquired minerals and royalties portfolio; For surface and water assets, achieve 8% ROIC for acquisitions closed since 2023. | Royalties/minerals portfolio generated 16% pre-tax cash flow yield for 2025. Surface/water acquisitions generated a 9% ROIC for 2025 including acquisitions closed since 2023. |

---

Given the challenging nature of the strategic objectives and the 2025 actual results, the Compensation Committee scored the strategic objectives at 120% of target.

Based on the achievement of all three metrics, bonuses were earned at 123% of target for each of the Named Executive Officers, as outlined below:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Named Executive Officer** | **Actual Bonus for 2025** |
| Tyler Glover | $1150050 |
| Chris Steddum | $670350 |
| Micheal W. Dobbs | $447720 |

---

*2025 Long-Term Incentive Program*

As part of the program redesign in 2022, the Compensation Committee implemented a long-term incentive plan for key employees at TPL, including Named Executive Officers. The goals of the long-term incentive plan include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Align executives' financial interests with stockholders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Tie executive compensation with long-term performance.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Create a retention incentive through a substantial forfeitable balance with long-term vesting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Provide a competitive compensation program aligned with typical company practices.

To meet the objectives of the program, the Compensation Committee established a long-term incentive program for the Named Executive Officers that uses a combination of PSUs and RSUs. Each of the primary vehicles is summarized in the table below and described in more detail later in this section.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Vehicle** | **Weight** | **Rationale** |
| PSUs Tied to Relative Total Stockholder Return ("RTSR") against the XOP Index | 25% | Earned if TPL performs well against a broad group of energy companies included in the XOP index. The maximum amount can only be earned if TPL is in the top 10% of this index. |
| PSUs Tied to Three-Year Cumulative FCF per Fully Diluted Share | 25% | Earned if TPL meets pre-established goals for generating FCF over the three-year performance period. Generating FCF enables greater returns to stockholders in the form of dividends and share repurchases. |
| Time-Based RSUs | 50% | Increases alignment between executives' interests and stockholders through share ownership of our executive team. Encourages continuity of the management team due to long-term (three-year) vesting provisions. |

---

*Performance Share Units (PSUs)*

PSUs comprised 50% of our Named Executive Officers' long-term incentive compensation for 2025. The Compensation Committee believes that PSUs create alignment between our executive officers and our long-term performance as measured by RTSR against a broad energy industry index (50% of PSUs) and the generation of FCF per fully diluted share over a three-year period (50% of PSUs). These awards vest, if at all, at the end of a three-year performance period.

The PSUs tied to RTSR (the "RTSR PSUs") are intended to measure the performance of TPL's stock against a broad set of energy industry companies included in the XOP index. Measuring RTSR against this group helps mitigate the impact of commodity price swings on the measurement of our performance. While we do not have any direct peers, the broad XOP index comprises many of our customers and other companies that are similarly impacted by fluctuations in commodity prices.

The RTSR PSUs can be earned between 0% and 200% of the target number of shares based on our RTSR percentile ranking against the constituents of the XOP index as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Percentile Rank** | **Shares Earned as a % of Target** <sup>(1)</sup> |
| 90<sup>th</sup> or above | 200% |
| 70<sup>th</sup>  | 150% |
| 50<sup>th</sup>  | 100% |
| 25<sup>th</sup> | 25% |
| < 25<sup>th</sup> | —% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)Payouts are interpolated between the points in the table.*

RTSR is measured using an average closing price at the beginning and end of the performance period. In the case of the 2025 awards, the average closing price over the month of December 2027 will be compared against the average closing price over the month of December 2024, assuming reinvestment of dividends from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2027.

The remaining 50% of PSUs (the "FCF PSUs") measure our cumulative FCF per fully diluted share against our initial targets over a three-year period. If the Company is able to outperform and generate greater FCF, it will help enable an increase in returns to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases. By measuring FCF on a per share basis, it requires our management team to ensure any dilution to our stockholders results in sufficiently greater FCF on an absolute basis.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

The FCF PSUs can be earned between 0% and 200% of the target number of shares based on cumulative FCF per fully diluted share as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Performance Level** | **Cumulative 3 Year FCF/Share**<sup>(1)</sup> | **Shares Earned as a % of Target** <sup>(2)</sup> |
| Maximum | $28.33/Share | 200% |
| Target | $21.67/Share | 100% |
| Threshold | $15.00/Share | 25% |
| Below Threshold | <$15.00/Share | —% |

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2)Payouts are interpolated between the points in the table.*

*Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)*

RSUs made up the other 50% of our Named Executive Officers' long-term incentive compensation for 2025. Regular grants of RSUs are intended to help build an ownership stake in TPL, thereby further aligning the interests of executives with the interests of TPL stockholders. The RSUs serve as a retention tool by creating a substantial forfeitable stake in the Company. The RSUs vest based on continued service to TPL in one-third increments per year, beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date.

*2025 Long-Term Incentive Grants*

In early 2025, the Compensation Committee established target long-term incentive grant levels for each of its Named Executive Officers based on a review of market data from the Reference Group and consideration of other factors such as experience and expertise, individual and company performance, and potential competitive opportunities for each of our Named Executive Officers. The target long-term incentive grant levels were established as a percentage of base salary and converted into a number of units based on the stock price on the grant date.

The February 2025 awards are summarized in the table below:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name and Position** | **Base Salary** | **Target LTI as % of Base Salary** | **Target LTI Dollar Amount** <sup>(1)</sup> | **Number of PSUs (at Target)** <sup>(2)</sup> | **Number of RSUs** <sup>(2)</sup> |
| Tyler Glover | $850000 | 525% | $4462500 | 4878 | 4878 |
| Chris Steddum | $545000 | 400% | $2180000 | 2388 | 2385 |
| Micheal W. Dobbs | $455000 | 275% | $1251250 | 1368 | 1368 |

*2023-2025 Performance Period PSU Vesting*

Following the end of the 2023-2025 performance period, the Compensation Committee certified the results of the PSU awards granted to our Named Executive Officers in 2023. The awards were split between 50% RTSR PSUs and 50% FCF PSUs. The results for each are presented in the following table:

---

| | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **PSUs** | **Threshold (25% Payout)** | **Target (100% Payout)** | **Maximum (200% Payout)** | **Actual Results** | **Percentage of Targeted Shares Earned** |
| RTSR PSUs | 25<sup>th</sup> percentile | 50<sup>th</sup> percentile | 90<sup>th</sup> percentile | 78% | 171% |

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*Other Compensation* 

Our Named Executive Officers are eligible to participate in the same benefit programs as are available to all of our employees generally, including our qualified defined contribution plan. Our qualified defined contribution plan is designed to assist employees in planning for their retirement. There are no supplemental non-qualified programs that are maintained solely for the benefit of our executives. The Pension Plan was frozen as of December 31, 2024 and terminated as of December 31, 2025. No future benefit accruals will be made. See further discussion of the freezing of the Pension Plan in Note 9, "Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8, "Financial and Supplementary Data."

We also provide certain executive officers with minimal perquisites, including an automobile allowance.

**Other Governance Features**

*Stock Ownership Guidelines*

We believe that it is in the best interests of our stockholders for our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, to maintain a significant ownership position in TPL to create substantial alignment between our senior management and our stockholders. Therefore, we have established stock ownership guidelines applicable to all of our executive officers. The ownership guidelines require each of our executive officers to hold shares of Common Stock with an aggregate value of at least a specified multiple of base salary as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Chief Executive Officer – 5x base salary

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Other Named Executive Officers – 2x base salary

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Other Executive Officers – 1x base salary

Shares of stock counting towards the guideline include TPL stock held outright and unvested time-based restricted stock. PSUs and RSUs do not count until they vest. Until and unless each officer has achieved the desired ownership level, he or she is required to retain at least 50% of the after-tax shares received upon vesting of equity awards.

*Employment Agreements*

The Company has entered into employment agreements with each Named Executive Officer following approval by the Compensation Committee. These employment agreements provide for minimum levels of compensation and provide severance protections for the officer upon a termination of employment without Cause or for Good Reason (each as defined in the applicable agreement). These agreements help match competitive practices and also include certain restrictive covenants designed to protect the Company. The provisions of these agreements are summarized under the "Employment Agreements" below.

*Accounting and Tax Considerations*

In setting the components of our executive compensation program, the Committee considers the impact of the following tax and accounting provisions:

*Code Section 162(m).* Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), generally disallows a tax deduction by public companies for compensation over $1 million paid individually to covered employees, as defined in the Code. Tax deductibility is only one factor considered by the Compensation Committee in making compensation decisions that are in the best interest of TPL and our stockholders.

*Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, "Stock Compensation" ("ASC Topic 718").* ASC Topic 718 requires a public company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity based on the grant date fair value of the award. Our equity awards to the Named Executives Officers (and to our other employees) are structured in a manner that is intended to maintain the appropriate accounting treatment.

*Code Section 409A.* Section 409A of the Code provides that deferrals of compensation under a nonqualified deferred compensation plan or arrangement are to be included in an individual's current gross income to the extent that such deferrals

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

are not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and have not previously been included in the individual's gross income, unless certain requirements are met. We structure our stock plans, change of control agreements, severance plans and agreements and other incentive plans and agreements, each to the extent they are subject to Section 409A, to be in compliance with Section 409A.

*Code Sections 280G and 4999.* The change of control benefits in our Named Executive Officers' employment agreements provide that, upon a change of control, we will either (i) reduce the amount of severance benefits otherwise payable to the executive officer so that such severance benefits will not be subject to excise tax for purposes of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, or (ii) pay the full amount of severance benefits to the executive officer (but with no tax "gross-up"), whichever produces the better after-tax result for the executive officer (often referred to as the "best-of-net" approach).

*Risk Assessment*

The Compensation Committee has reviewed the relationship between our risk management policies and compensation policies and practices and concluded that we do not have any compensation policies or practices that expose us to risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on TPL.

*Other Compensation-Related Policies*

We have an Insider Trading Policy that sets forth terms, conditions, timing, limitations, and prohibitions with respect to trading in the Company's securities. The Insider Trading Policy also generally prohibits executive officers, among others, from hedging, including engaging in publicly-traded options, puts, calls, or other derivative instruments relating to the Company's securities, or selling the Company's securities "short." The Insider Trading Policy also requires that such persons obtain pre-approval from the Company's General Counsel for all pledges, and the deposit in margin accounts, of the Company's securities. The Insider Trading Policy is discussed further under Part III, Item 10. "Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance *—* Matters Relating to Our Governance *—* Insider Trading Policy; Anti-Hedging Policy" above.

We have adopted a Clawback Policy in accordance with SEC rules and NYSE listing standards that requires covered executives to reimburse the Company, or forfeit, any excess incentive compensation received by them during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company's material noncompliance with any such financial reporting requirement under the securities laws. The Clawback Policy is discussed further under Part III, Item 10. "Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance *—* Matters Relating to Our Governance *—* Clawback Policy" above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(4)The amount presented includes contributions by TPL to the account of the Named Executive Officer under the Company's defined contribution retirement plan.* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(5)The aggregate value of the perquisites and other personal benefits, if any, received by the Named Executive Officers for all years presented have not been reflected in the table because the amount was below the SEC's $10,000 threshold for disclosure, except for Mr. Glover, whose perquisites consisted of $14,400 in automobile allowance for each of 2025, 2024, and 2023.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(6)Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of PSUs and RSUs granted to the Named Executive Officer in February 2025. The reported grant date fair value of PSUs granted to the Named Executive Officers is based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions. The maximum grant date fair value of stock awards granted to Mr. Glover, Mr. Steddum and Mr. Dobbs, assuming achievement of the highest level of performance conditions for the PSUs is $6,019,891, $2,945,635, and $1,688,235, respectively.*

**Pay Ratio Disclosure**

As required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annual total compensation of our median employee and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer during 2025, Mr. Glover. For purposes of calculating the 2025 ratio of the total annual compensation of the median employee to the total annual compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, we identified and calculated the elements of the median employee's compensation using the same methodology reflected in the "Summary Compensation Table" above. We used December 31, 2025 as the measurement date for identifying the median employee. Base salary amounts were annualized for any employee who had less than a full year of service during 2025. Total compensation for Mr. Glover, the Chief Executive Officer, was determined to be $7,072,516 and was approximately 34 times the median annual compensation of all of our employees, excluding the Chief Executive Officer, of $210,079. For purposes of this calculation, the Company had 113 employees, excluding the Chief Executive Officer.

**Employment Agreements** 

*Mr. Glover*

On October 13, 2023, the Company entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Glover, its President and Chief Executive Officer (the "Glover Agreement").

Prior to the effective date of the Glover Agreement, in accordance with the terms of the Prior Glover Agreement, Mr. Glover was entitled to a base salary of $850,000, a Bonus with a target value of at least 100% of base salary, and LTI awards, the target amount of which, when added to the target Bonus, would be at least 300% of base salary.

In addition to the foregoing, Mr. Glover will be entitled to (x) a payment equal to the value of his restrictive covenants, which payment shall offset an equal amount of the Glover CIC Severance Amount; (y) 12 months of outplacement services paid for by the Company (not to exceed $30,000); and (z) 12 months of financial planning services paid for by the Company (not to exceed $30,000).

*Mr. Steddum*

On October 13, 2023, the Company entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Mr. Steddum, its Chief Financial Officer (the "Steddum Agreement"). The Steddum Agreement was effective as of October 13, 2023 and replaced and superseded the Company's prior employment agreement with Mr. Steddum that became effective on January 1, 2022.

The term of the Steddum Agreement ends on December 31, 2026, with automatic one (1) year extensions unless notice not to renew is given up to at least 120 days prior to the relevant end date.

Under the Steddum Agreement, Mr. Steddum receives (and prior to the effective date of the Steddum Agreement, Mr. Steddum received) a base salary of $500,000 per annum, subject to annual review, and is eligible for an annual cash Bonus with a target value of up to at least 90% of such base salary for achievement of specified performance targets.

If Mr. Steddum's employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by Mr. Steddum for good reason within 24 months following a change in control of the Company as defined in the Steddum Agreement, then, in lieu of the amount specified in clause (v) of the preceding sentence, Mr. Steddum will be entitled to an amount ("Steddum CIC Severance Amount") equal to 2.99 times the greater of (a) the average of his base salary and Bonus for the three years preceding the year in which the change in control occurs, and (b) his base salary and target Bonus for the year in which the change in control occurs.

*Mr. Dobbs*

On October 13, 2023, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Dobbs, its Senior Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel (the "Dobbs Agreement").

The term of the Dobbs Agreement ends on December 31, 2026, with automatic one (1) year extensions unless notice not to renew is given up to at least 120 days prior to the relevant end date.

Under the Dobbs Agreement, Mr. Dobbs receives (and prior to the effective date of the Dobbs Agreement, Mr. Dobbs received) a base salary of $420,000 per annum, subject to annual review, and is eligible for an annual cash Bonus with a target value of at least 75% of such base salary for achievement of specified performance targets.

The Glover Agreement, the Steddum Agreement and the Dobbs Agreement each provide that we will either (i) reduce the amount of severance benefits otherwise payable to the executive officer under the applicable agreement so that such severance benefits will not be subject to excise tax for purposes Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code or (ii) pay the full amount of severance benefits payable to the executive officer under the applicable employment agreement (but with no tax "gross-up"), whichever produces the better after-tax result for the executive officer.

The table below presents the estimated value of payments and benefits that each Named Executive Officer would have been entitled to receive if the specified triggering event had occurred on December 31, 2025. Amounts presented for the vesting of equity awards are calculated based on the closing price of our Common Stock on the NYSE on December 31, 2025, which was $287.22 per share.

The Pension Plan is a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan qualified under Section 401 of the Code in which the employees participate. The remuneration covered by the Pension Plan is Salary, subject to applicable limits prescribed by the Internal Revenue Services. The Pension Plan provides a normal retirement benefit equal to 1.5% of a participant's average Salary for the last five years prior to retirement for each year of Credited Service under the Plan. Credited service is earned from the participant's date of membership in the Pension Plan, which is generally not the participant's date of hire by the Company. For information concerning the valuation method and material assumptions used in quantifying the present value of the Named Executive Officers' current accrued benefits and the freezing of the Pension Plan effective December 31, 2024, see Note 9, "Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

As of December 31, 2025, the annual accrued normal retirement benefits are estimated to be $55,980 for Mr. Glover, $22,425 for Mr. Steddum, and $14,700 for Mr. Dobbs.

The Pension Plan provides for early retirement after 20 years of service with the Company. Early retirement benefits are calculated in the same manner as the normal retirement benefit, but are reduced by 1/15 for each of the first five years and 1/30 for each of the next five years that benefits commence prior to normal retirement. If benefits commence more than 10 years prior to normal retirement, the early retirement benefit payable at age 55 is reduced actuarially for the period prior to age 55. None of the listed participants are currently eligible for early retirement benefits. The Pension Plan was frozen as of December 31, 2024 and terminated as of December 31, 2025, and as a result, no future benefit accruals will be made.

**Directors' Compensation**

The following table sets forth information concerning compensation paid to our non-employee directors during the year ended December 31, 2025. Because Mr. Glover is an employee of the Company, he did not receive additional compensation for his service as a director in 2025. See the Summary Compensation Table included above for additional information regarding the compensation paid to Mr. Glover.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;From time to time, the Board constitutes ad hoc committees and determines whether any, and if so how much, compensation is paid for such service. Any such payments made to directors during the year ended December 31, 2025 are reflected in the "Fees Earned or Paid in Cash" column of the table above.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amounts shown represent the aggregate grant date fair value of non-employee director equity compensation, computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures. A discussion of the assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts is included in Note 10, "Share-Based Compensation" in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Part II, Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." For purposes of non-employee director equity compensation, we did not issue any fractional shares and, as a result, the aggregate grant date fair value of each director's award is slightly more than $145,000. As of December 31, 2025, none of the non-employee directors had outstanding equity awards.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(3)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Oliver's term expired at our 2025 annual meeting of stockholders held on November 6, 2025, and he did not stand for re-election.* 

On an annual basis, all non-employee directors receive a base retainer of $250,000, of which $105,000 is paid in cash and $145,000 is paid in shares of Common Stock unless otherwise determined by the Company, valued at the closing price of the Common Stock on the NYSE on the date of grant of January 1 of each year and are immediately vested on the date of grant. Directors serving in multiple leadership roles receive incremental compensation for each role, including that committee chairs receive both the committee service fee plus the specified amount for chairing such committee. Directors are not expected to receive additional compensation for attending regularly scheduled Board or committee meetings. For directors appointed or elected after January 1 of a given year, the compensation paid to the non-employee directors will be prorated based on the number of days of service.

The 2025 grant was made on January 1, 2025, and the 2026 grant was made on January 5, 2026. The shares of Common Stock immediately vested on the date of each grant.*

*Stock Ownership Guidelines*

The Company believes that it is in the best interests of our stockholders for our directors to maintain a significant ownership position in TPL to create substantial alignment with our stockholders. Therefore, we have established stock ownership guidelines applicable to our non-employee directors. The ownership guidelines require each of our non-employee directors to acquire, within five (5) years, and hold shares of Common Stock with an aggregate value of at least five (5) times the base cash retainer. Shares counting towards the guidelines include TPL shares held outright and unvested time-based restricted shares. However, non-employee directors are permitted to sell shares of Common Stock to facilitate tax obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted shares. If a non-employee director falls below the applicable multiple due solely to a decline in the value of shares of Common Stock, such non-employee director will not be required to acquire additional shares to meet the applicable multiple.

**Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation** 

Each of Ms. Duganier, Gen. Cook, Mr. Kurz, and Mr. Roosa served on the Compensation Committee during the Last Fiscal Year. None of the persons who served on the Compensation Committee during the Last Fiscal Year is or has been an officer or employee of the Company, and none had any relationship with the Company or any of its subsidiaries during the Last Fiscal Year that would be required to be disclosed as a transaction with a related person. None of our executive officers currently serve, or served in the Last Fiscal Year, on the board of directors or compensation or similar committee of another company at any time during which an executive officer of such other company served on our Board or Compensation Committee.

**Compensation Committee Report**

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Item 11 with management and, based on such review and discussion, recommended that it be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Respectfully submitted,

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors

**Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans**

The amount reported in "Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options, warrants and rights" does not take into account RSUs and PSUs because they have no exercise price.*

*2021 Plan* 

We maintain the 2021 Plan, pursuant to which we may grant to any employee of the Company, an affiliate or a subsidiary nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, cash-based awards and other stock-based awards. The 2021 Plan was approved by our Board on August 11, 2021 and by our stockholders on December 29, 2021, and amended on October 31, 2023, and will expire on December 29, 2031. The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2021 Plan is 675,000 shares, which may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares (if any), treasury shares, or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner.

Unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, a severance plan sponsored by the Company, or in an applicable employment agreement, or otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, upon a change in control of the Company (as defined in the 2021 Plan) the following shall occur:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For awards other than performance awards, a replacement award (that is, an award with a value and terms that are at least as favorable as the outstanding award that is being replaced by the replacement award) may be issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For awards other than performance awards, if a replacement award is not issued and the Company's Common Stock ceases to be publicly traded after the change in control, such awards shall be immediately vested and exercisable upon such change in control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For unearned performance awards, the award shall be (i) earned on a pro-rata basis at the higher of actual or target performance and (ii) measured as of the end of the calendar quarter before the change in control date or, if the award is stock-price based, as of the effective date of the change in control;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For earned but unvested performance awards, the earned award shall be immediately vested and payable as of the change in control; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For awards other than performance awards, if the Company's Common Stock continues to be publicly traded after change in control, such awards shall continue under their applicable terms, unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, in the case of awards other than performance awards, the Compensation Committee may cancel such awards, and the award holders shall receive shares or cash equal to the difference between the amount stockholders receive for their shares and the purchase price per share, if any, under the award. Except as may be provided in an employment or severance compensation agreement between the Company and the participant, if, in connection with a change in

------

control, a participant's payment of any awards will cause the participant to be liable for federal excise tax levied on certain "excess parachute payments," then either (i) all payments otherwise due or (ii) the reduced payment amount to avoid an excess parachute payment, whichever will provide the participant with the greater after-tax economic benefit taking into account any applicable excise tax, shall be paid to the participant. In no event will any participant be entitled to receive any kind of gross-up payment or reimbursement for any excise taxes payable in connection with change in control payments.

*2021 Non-Employee Director Stock and Deferred Compensation Plan* 

We maintain the Texas Pacific Land Corporation 2021 Non-Employee Director and Deferred Compensation Plan (the "2021 Director Plan"), pursuant to which we may grant shares of Common Stock to each of our non-employee directors and our non-employee directors may defer some or all of their directors' cash fees and stock compensation. The 2021 Director Plan was approved by our Board on August 11, 2021 and by our stockholders on December 29, 2021, and amended on October 31, 2023, and will expire on December 29, 2031. The 2021 Director Plan provides for annual grants of shares of Common Stock to each of our non-employee directors. Shares granted are fully vested upon date of grant unless the Compensation Committee or Board determines otherwise.

The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2021 Director Plan is 90,000 shares, and the aggregate fair market value of shares that may be issued to a non-employee director in a calendar year is limited to $500,000. Shares granted under the 2021 Director Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares (if any), treasury shares, or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner.

**Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners**

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. Under such rules, an individual or entity is generally deemed to beneficially own any shares as to which the individual or entity has sole or shared voting or investment power, including any shares that the individual or entity has the right to acquire within 60 days of February 9, 2026 through the exercise of any stock options, through the vesting/settlement of RSUs, or upon the exercise of other rights. Shares underlying PSUs will not be deemed beneficially owned by a person even if the PSU may vest within 60 days of February 9, 2026 because the satisfaction of the applicable performance conditions is outside of the person's control. For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of Common Stock held by each person or group of persons named below, any Common Stock that such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days of February 9, 2026 is deemed to be outstanding but is not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

Except as indicated in the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished or available to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of Common Stock that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable. There are no arrangements currently known to us, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control of the Company.

The following table is based upon 68,941,554 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 9, 2026 and shows all holders known to the Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of February 9, 2026:

**Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.**

**Procedures for Approval of Related Person Transactions**

TPL generally does not engage in transactions in which TPL's executive officers or directors (or any of their immediate family members) or any of TPL's stockholders owning 5% or more of TPL's outstanding shares of Common Stock (or any of their immediate family members) have a material interest. Should a proposed transaction or series of similar transactions involve any such persons in an amount that exceeds $120,000 in any fiscal year, it will be subject to review and approval by the Audit Committee in accordance with its written policy and procedures adopted by the Board. Transactions entered into that were not related person transactions at the time that they were consummated, but that later become related person transactions during the course of the transaction, will also be subject to review by the Audit Committee in accordance with a written policy adopted by the Board.

**Transactions with Related Persons**

*Bolt Investment*

As discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, in December 2025, we made a minority investment of $50.0 million in Bolt pursuant to a strategic agreement to develop and enable large scale data center campuses and supporting infrastructure across our land. Prior to the closing of our investment in Bolt, we were informed that Horizon, a wholly owned subsidiary of Horizon Kinetics Holding Corporation, intended to make a significant equity investment in Bolt through various affiliated funds. Murray Stahl, a director of the Company, is also the Chief Executive Officer, Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of Horizon. The Company and the Audit Committee reviewed Horizon's proposed investment in Bolt and, along with Horizon, undertook steps to alleviate any potential conflicts of interest that could arise from such investment. Following our investment, Horizon invested approximately $47.5 million in Bolt.

**Independence**

The Board has affirmatively determined that all of the directors, other than Mr. Glover, who is employed by TPL, are independent under the rules of the SEC and the NYSE.

No director may be deemed independent unless the Board determines that he or she has no material relationship with TPL, directly or as an officer, stockholder or partner of an organization that has a material relationship with TPL.

**Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.** 

The following table presents fees billed to TPL for professional services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte"), for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the stockholders and the Board of Directors of Texas Pacific Land Corporation

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Texas Pacific Land Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of income and total comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 18, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Critical Audit Matter**

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

**Accrual of Oil and Gas Royalties — Refer to Note 2 to the financial statements**

*Critical Audit Matter Description*

The Company records an accrual for oil and gas royalty revenues in accounts receivable and accrued receivables, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The accrual is necessary due to the time lag between the production of oil and gas and generation of the actual payment by operators, which is typically one to two months after the production of oil and gas. The determination of the oil and gas royalty accrual involves an analysis of historical production volumes, estimates of the timing of future payments, and recent market prices for oil and gas. The realized transaction prices for oil and gas royalty revenues are subject to national and international economic and political considerations and locational and contractual basis differences.

Given the significant judgment in determining future estimated payments based on estimated production volumes, payment timing, and realized prices for oil and gas products made by the Company, performing audit procedures to evaluate the

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

Company's estimate of accrued oil and gas royalties required a high degree of auditor judgment in evaluating audit evidence and an increased extent of effort.

*How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit*

Our audit procedures related to the Company's accrual of oil and gas royalties included the following, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We tested the operating effectiveness of internal controls related the Company's estimate of the accrual of revenues from oil and gas royalties

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We evaluated the method used by management to develop the estimate considering historical production, payments, and timing of payments

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We evaluated the Company's estimation process by performing a retrospective review of variances between accrued revenue estimates and subsequent receipts of payments of oil and gas royalties

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We tested the completeness and accuracy of historical production and payment data used in the estimating payments not yet received for production during the current period, and assessed the relevance of historical data to the current period estimate

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We assessed the estimate of realized prices for oil and gas royalties used in the accrual of oil and gas royalties based on market pricing data and historical price differentials

**TEXAS PACIFIC LAND CORPORATION**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Organization and Description of Business**

*Organization*

Texas Pacific Land Corporation (which, together with its subsidiaries as the context requires, may be referred to as "TPL," the "Company," "our," "we," or "us") is a Delaware corporation and one of the largest landowners in the State of Texas with approximately 882,000 surface acres of land, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. Additionally, we own a 1/128th nonparticipating perpetual oil and gas royalty interest ("NPRI") under approximately 85,000 acres of land, a 1/16th NPRI under approximately 371,000 acres of land, and approximately 33,000 additional net royalty acres (normalized to 1/8th) ("NRA") for a collective total of approximately 224,000 NRA, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin.

Our revenues are derived from oil and gas royalties, water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related ("SLEM") income and land sales.

On January 11, 2021, we completed our reorganization from a business trust, Texas Pacific Land Trust (the "Trust"), organized under a Declaration of Trust dated February 1, 1888 (the "Declaration of Trust"), into Texas Pacific Land Corporation, a corporation formed and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the "Corporate Reorganization").

**2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

***Basis of Presentation***

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and include our consolidated accounts and the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

***Segment Reporting***

Operating segments are based on components of the Company that engage in business activity that earn revenues and incur expenses and (a) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to make decisions about resource allocation and performance and (b) for which discrete financial information is available. The measure of profit or loss that the CODM uses to assess performance and allocated resources to our reportable segments is Net Income. Our chief executive officer is the CODM and uses Net Income to evaluate income generated by each segment in his determination of allocating resources to each segment. As a result, the Company operates two operating segments which represent our reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. The segments enable the alignment of strategies and objectives of TPL and provide a framework for timely and rational allocation of resources within businesses. See Note 16, "Business Segment Reporting" for further information regarding our segments.

***Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements***

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the event estimates and/or assumptions prove to be different from actual amounts, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information.

***Revenue Recognition***

*Oil and Gas Royalties*

Oil and gas royalties are received in connection with royalty interests owned by TPL. Oil and gas royalties are reported net of production taxes and are recognized as revenue when crude oil and natural gas products are removed from the respective mineral reserve locations. Oil and gas royalty payments are generally received one to two months after the crude oil and gas products are removed. An accrual for amounts not received during the month crude oil and natural gas products are removed is included in accounts receivable and accrued receivables, net based on historical trends.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

The oil and gas royalties which we receive are dependent upon the market prices for oil and gas, and locational and contractual price differences. The market prices for oil and gas are subject to national and international economic and political conditions and subject to significant price fluctuations.

TPL has analyzed public reports of drilling activities by the oil companies operating where we have an oil and gas royalty interest in an effort to identify unpaid royalties associated with royalty interests we own. Rights to certain oil and gas royalties we believe to be due and payable may be subject to dispute with the oil company involved as a result of disagreements with respect to drilling and related engineering information. Disputed oil and gas royalties are recorded when these contingencies are resolved.

*Water Sales*

Water sales revenue encompasses the sale and delivery of sourced, produced and treated water to operators and other customers, royalties received related to areas of mutual interest ("AMI"), and royalties received pursuant to legacy agreements with operators. In certain instances, we enter into agreements with third parties to provide various water services, including but not limited to, the purchase, sale or transfer of water within a specific geographic area, also known as an AMI. Our performance obligation is deemed satisfied upon the delivery of water at which point, revenue is recognized. In instances where a third party other than the customer is involved in the sale and/or transport of water, such as a revenue share agreement, brokered water sale transaction or third party acquisition of water, the Company will either be acting as the principal or the agent in the water sales transaction. If the Company is deemed to be acting as a principal, the associated revenues are reported on a gross basis in water sales revenue and the corresponding costs associated with the sale are reported as an operating expense in water service-related expenses in the consolidated income statement. If the Company is deemed to be acting as an agent, principally in brokered water transactions, the associated water sales revenue is reported net of the corresponding costs associated with the sale and included in the water sales revenue line item on the consolidated income statement.

Purchases of water from third parties, transfer costs and treatment expenses associated with water sales are included in water service-related expenses.

*Produced Water Royalties*

Produced water royalties represent revenue from the transfer and disposal of saltwater from producing oil and gas wells on our land. Revenue is recognized when the water is transported across or injected into our land.

*Easements and Other Surface-Related Income*

Easement contracts represent contracts which permit companies to install pipelines, electric lines and other equipment on land owned by TPL. When TPL receives a signed contract and payment, we make available the respective parcel of land to the grantee. Easement income is recognized upon the execution of the easement agreement, or in the event of a renewal upon receipt of the renewal payment, as at that point in time, we have satisfied our performance obligation and the customer has right of use.

Leases of our surface acreage include, but are not limited to, facility, roadway and surface leases with a typical lease term of 10 years and generally require fixed annual payments. Lease cancellations are allowed under certain circumstances, but initial lease deposits are generally nonrefundable. The initial lease deposits and annual payments are recorded as unearned revenue upon receipt and amortized over the life of the lease. Advance lease payments are deferred and amortized over the appropriate accounting period.

Other surface-related income includes revenue from permits, material sales, renewable energy sources, and lease bonuses related to royalty interests acquired. Revenue from permits is recognized upon execution of the contract and receipt of payment. Revenue from material sales is recognized upon the removal of materials by the customer. Revenue from renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, generally consist of leases, some of which may include a provision for future royalties once certain circumstances occur. As discussed above, lease payments are recorded as unearned revenue and amortized over the life of the lease. Royalties are recognized based upon actual production. Revenue from mineral lease bonuses represent upfront payments received from operators to secure the right to explore and develop oil and gas interests. Lease bonus payments are not contingent on future production and are recognized in full when received.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*Land Sales and Exchanges*

We consider purchasers of land to be our customers as land management, leasing and sales are normal operating activities for TPL. Revenue is recognized on land sales when the performance obligation to the purchaser (customer) is complete. Revenue from land exchanges is recognized based upon the estimated fair value of the consideration exchanged.

***Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash***

We consider investments in bank deposits, money market funds, and other highly-liquid cash investments, such as U.S. Treasury bills and commercial paper, with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Our cash equivalents are considered Level 1 assets in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that correspond to the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **December 31,<br>2025** | **December 31,<br>2024** |
| Cash and cash equivalents | $144809 | $369835 |
| Tax like-kind exchange escrow | 595 | 1546 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the statement of cash flows | $145404 | $371381 |

---

***Receivables***

Receivables consist primarily of royalty income due related to our oil, gas and produced water royalties and trade accounts receivable related to water and material sales. An allowance is recorded for expected credit losses and is based upon our historical write-off experience, aging of trade accounts receivable and collectability patterns of our customers. The allowance for expected credit loss was approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

*Accrual of Oil and Gas Royalties*

The Company accrues oil and gas royalties, which are included in accounts receivable and accrued receivables, net. An accrual is necessary due to the time lag between the removal of crude oil and natural gas products from the respective mineral reserve locations and generation of the actual payment by operators. The oil and gas royalty accrual is based upon historical production volumes, estimates of the timing of future payments and recent market prices for oil and gas. Accrued oil and gas royalties included in accounts receivable and accrued receivables, net totaled $61.3 million and $60.7 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Fair Value Measurement*** 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The fair value accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs reflect our assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:

*Level 1* – Inputs are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Since inputs are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, Level 1 inputs require the least amount of judgment.

*Level 2* – Inputs are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, or are observable either directly or indirectly. Inputs are obtained from various sources including financial institutions and brokers.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

*Level 3* – Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The degree of judgment exercised by us in determining fair value is greatest for fair value measurements categorized in Level 3.

We use the highest level of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.

***Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions***

Our acquisition activities generally include acquisitions of royalty interests and/or land (real estate), and at times, may also include acquisitions of intangible assets or other tangible assets.

When accounting for acquisition activities, we evaluate whether a transaction meets the definition of a business. We first apply a screen test to determine if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen test is met, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. If the screen test is not met, we further consider whether the set of assets acquired have, at a minimum, inputs and processes that have the ability to create outputs in the form of revenue. If the assets acquired meet this criteria, the transaction is accounted for as a business combination.

Acquisitions that qualify as an asset acquisition are accounted for using a cost accumulation model whereby the purchase price of the acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired on a relative fair value basis on the date of acquisition. Inputs used to determine such fair values are primarily based upon internally developed models, publicly-available drilling information, a risk-adjusted discount rate and/or publicly-available data regarding transactions consummated by other buyers and sellers, as applicable. These fair values are considered Level 2 and Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy. Any associated acquisition costs are capitalized.

Acquisitions that qualify as a business combination are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of consideration transferred for an acquisition is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair value on a nonrecurring basis on the acquisition date and are subject to fair value adjustments under certain circumstances. The excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Conversely, in the event the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is greater than the consideration transferred, a bargain purchase gain is recognized.

Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions as fair values are not always readily determinable. Different techniques may be used to determine fair values, including market prices (where available), comparisons to transactions involving the acquisition of similar assets and liabilities and the discounted net present value of estimated future cash flows, among others. We engage third-party valuation firms when appropriate to assist in the fair value determination of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Acquisition-related expenses and transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred. We may adjust the amounts recognized in connection with an acquisition during a measurement period not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition, as a result of subsequently obtaining additional information that existed at the acquisition date.

***Royalty Interests Acquired***

Royalty interests acquired represent royalty interests in proved and unproved oil and gas properties. The cost of acquired oil and gas royalties are capitalized and are accounted for under the successful efforts method. Proved properties refer only to proved developed producing ("PDP") reserves, as the Company does not control the timing or development of drilling activities. As unproved properties are determined to have PDP reserves, the related costs are transferred to proved properties and become subject to depletion at that time.

Estimates of crude oil, gas, and NGL reserves affect the calculation of depletion and impairment and also the unaudited standardized measure disclosures associated with our oil and gas royalty interests. We engaged an independent consulting petroleum firm, with assistance from us, to prepare an estimate of proved developed producing reserves, future production and income attributable to our royalty interests as of December 31, 2025. All reserve estimates involve an assessment of the uncertainty relating to the likelihood that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the estimated quantities determined as of the date the estimate is made. The uncertainty depends primarily on the amount of reliable geologic and engineering data available at the time of the estimate and the interpretation of such data. For depletion purposes, and as required by the guidelines and definitions established by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the reserve estimates were based on the average prices during the 12-month period prior to December 31, 2025 determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first day of the month for each month within the period. Any significant

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

variance in the assumptions could materially affect the estimated quantity of reserves, which could affect the carrying value of our oil and gas royalty interests and/or the rate of depletion related to the oil and gas royalty interests.

***Depletion of Royalty Interests Acquired***

Capitalized costs for proved oil and gas royalty interests are depleted on a unit-of-production basis over total PDP reserves. For depletion of proved oil and gas properties, interests are grouped in a reasonable aggregation of properties with common geological structural features or stratigraphic conditions.

***Real Estate and Royalty Interests Assigned Through the Declaration of Trust***

The fair market value of the land and royalty interests that were assigned through the Declaration of Trust (referred to as "Assigned" land and royalty interests) was not determined in 1888 when the Trust was formed; therefore, no value is assigned in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets to the Assigned land and royalty interests. Consequently, in the consolidated statements of income and total comprehensive income, no allowance has been made for depletion and no cost has been deducted from the proceeds of sales of the Assigned land and royalty interests. Even though the 1888 value of real properties cannot be precisely determined, we have concluded that the effect of this matter is no longer significant to our financial position or results of operations. Minimal real estate improvements are made to land.

***Equity Investment in Bolt Data & Energy, Inc.***

In December 2025, the Company made a minority equity investment in Bolt Data & Energy, Inc. ("Bolt"), a privately held company focused on the development of large-scale data center and energy infrastructure projects. The Company invested $50.0 million in exchange for shares of Series A preferred stock of Bolt, resulting in a minority ownership interest. In connection with the investment, the Company has the right to appoint one member to Bolt's seven-member board of directors. The Company does not have any veto, consent, or other substantive participating rights over Bolt's operating or financial policies and is not involved in Bolt's operations or management.

The Company also received contingent warrant rights exercisable upon the achievement of specified operational milestones with respect to power drawn by Bolt for use on land contributed by TPL, as well as a right of first refusal to provide water to Bolt-affiliated projects and related infrastructure. As of December 31, 2025, no value was attributed to the warrant rights, as progress toward the underlying operational milestones had not commenced.

The Company's agreement with Bolt provides that the Company is obligated to contribute certain surface acreage in exchange for additional shares of preferred stock, subject to the Company and Bolt's mutual agreement on the location and valuation of such acreage. Bolt is not obligated to develop projects on the Company's land and may pursue development activities on non-Company surface acreage. Any future land contributions will be evaluated as separate transactions upon closing.

The Company evaluated its investment in Bolt and determined that Bolt is a variable interest entity ("VIE"), as the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its planned large-scale infrastructure activities without additional financial support. Although Bolt is a VIE, the Company is not the primary beneficiary because it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact Bolt's economic performance, including development, financing, and operational decision-making. The Company's exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with Bolt is limited to the carrying value of its investment, as the Company has no obligation to provide additional financial support. Accordingly, the Company does not consolidate Bolt.

The Company next evaluated its investment to determine if equity method accounting would apply. In making this determination, the Company assessed whether the investment in preferred equity met the criteria to be considered in-substance common stock. The Company determined that the preferred equity investment did not meet this criteria, and accordingly concluded that the investment does not qualify for equity method accounting.

Investments that are not consolidated and do not qualify for equity method accounting are accounted for as equity securities. The Company has elected to measure such investments at cost, subject to impairment and observable price changes, rather than at fair value. Accordingly, the investment is accounted for as an equity security measured at cost.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

***Impairment of Long-Lived Assets***

We evaluate long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives and royalty interests acquired with proved oil and gas reserves, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. When assessing the asset for impairment, we compare the undiscounted future net cash flows to the carrying value to determine recoverability. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows, the fair value of the asset is determined and an impairment is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. Fair value is determined primarily by discounted cash flows, supported by available market valuations, if applicable.

The factors used to determine fair value of proved oil and gas royalty interests include estimates of PDP reserves, future commodity prices, timing of future production, and a risk-adjusted discount rate. If pricing conditions decline or are depressed, or if there is a negative impact on one or more of the other components of the calculation, we may incur proved property impairments in future periods. Factors used in the assessment of fair value of unproved oil and gas royalty interests include, but are not limited to, commodity price outlooks and current and future operator activity in the Permian.

No impairments were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, or 2023.

***Amortization of Intangible Assets***

Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives ranging from 13 to 20 years.

***Property, Plant and Equipment***

Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with our development of infrastructure for sourcing and treating water are capitalized.

***Research and Development Activities***

Research and development activities relate to the Company's initiative to develop an energy-efficient desalination and treatment process for surface discharge and beneficial reuse of produced water. Costs for tangible assets used in these activities that have an alternative future use to the Company are capitalized. All other research and development related expenses are expensed when incurred.

***Depreciation Expense***

We account for depreciation of property, plant and equipment on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciable lives by category are as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Range of Estimated Useful Lives (in years)** | **Range of Estimated Useful Lives (in years)** | **Range of Estimated Useful Lives (in years)** |
| Water wells and other water-related assets | 3 | to | 20 |
| Furniture, fixtures and equipment | 3 | to | 15 |

---

***Leases***

We lease certain facilities under operating leases. A determination of whether a contract contains a lease is made at the inception of the arrangement. Our leased facilities include our administrative offices located in Dallas and Midland, Texas.

Our leases generally contain options to extend or terminate the lease. We reevaluate our leases on a regular basis to consider the economic and strategic incentives of exercising the renewal options, and how they align with our operating strategy. Therefore, substantially all of the renewal option periods are not included within the lease term and the associated payments are not included in the measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability as the options to extend are not reasonably certain at lease commencement. Short-term leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recognized in the right-to-use asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

The lease liabilities are measured at the lease commencement date and determined using the present value of the minimum lease payments not yet paid and our incremental borrowing rate, which approximates the rate at which we would borrow, on a collateralized basis, over the term of a lease in the applicable currency environment. The interest rate implicit in the lease is generally not determinable in transactions where we are the lessee.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

For real estate leases, we account for lease components and non-lease components (such as common area maintenance) as a single lease component. Certain real estate leases require reimbursement for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and insurance, which are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs. Certain leases contain fixed lease payments for items such as common area maintenance and parking. These fixed payments are considered part of the lease payment and included in the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. See Note 14, "Commitments and Contingencies" for additional information.

***Income Taxes***

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The liability for unrecognized tax benefits was zero as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes in the consolidated statements of income and total comprehensive income.

 ***Share-Based Compensation***

The Company utilizes the closing stock price on the date of grant to determine the fair value of stock awards and service-vesting awards, which for the Company includes restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), restricted stock units ("RSUs"), and performance stock units ("PSUs") with a performance condition. For PSUs with a market condition, grant date fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. Unvested awards are entitled to dividends or dividend equivalents which are accrued and distributed to award recipients at the time such awards vest. Dividends are forfeitable if the related award is forfeited. For RSAs, RSUs and PSUs with performance conditions, forfeitures are recognized in the period in which they occur. For PSU awards with market conditions, forfeitures are only recognized if the award recipient does not render the required service during the measurement period.

Share-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards with no requisite service period is recognized in the financial statements immediately on date of grant. Share-based compensation expense for RSUs and RSAs with a requisite service period is recognized in the financial statements over the awards' vesting periods using the graded-vesting method. Share-based compensation expense for PSU awards with performance conditions is recognized ratably over the measurement period at such time as the awards are probable and estimable. Share-based compensation expense for PSU awards with market conditions is recognized ratably over the measurement period regardless of whether the market condition is satisfied if the service for the award is rendered. Share-based compensation is reported on the consolidated statements of income and total comprehensive income as a component of salaries and related employee expenses for employee awards and in general and administrative expenses for director awards.

***Net Income Per Share***

Basic income per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus unvested shares issued pursuant to our equity and deferred compensation plans. See Note 13, "Earnings Per Share."

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

***Treasury Stock***

Treasury stock purchases are accounted for under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), acquired is recorded as treasury stock. The cost associated with issuance of treasury stock is based on the average cost of treasury stock as of the date of issuance.

***Comprehensive Income (Loss)***

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting capital that, under GAAP, are excluded from net income.

***Concentrations of Credit Risk***

We invest our cash and cash equivalents (which include U.S. Treasury bills, money market funds, and commercial paper with maturities of three months or less) among major financial institutions in an attempt to minimize exposure to risk from any one of these entities. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents deposited in our financial institutions in excess of federally-insured levels. We regularly monitor the financial condition of these financial institutions and believe that we are not exposed to any significant credit risk in cash and cash equivalents.

***Significant Customers***

Three customers represented, in the aggregate, 39.6% of TPL's total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025. Three customers represented, in the aggregate, 40.9% of TPL's total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2024. Three customers represented, in the aggregate, 42.5% of TPL's total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023.

**3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Assets Acquired in a Business Combination** 

On August 20, 2024, we acquired 4,120 acres of land along with other surface-related tangible and intangible assets (collectively referred to as the "Acquired Assets") from an unaffiliated seller for total consideration of $45.0 million, in an all-cash transaction. There were no liabilities assumed by the Company in this transaction. The Acquired Assets generate revenue streams across water sales, produced water royalties, and SLEM, and provide additional commercial growth opportunities for the Company to expand water sourcing and produced water opportunities to both new and existing customers. The Acquired Assets are located in the Midland Basin.

The Acquired Assets included the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Acquired Assets** | **Balance Sheet Classification** | **Business Segment** |
| 4,120 acres of land | Real estate acquired | Land and Resource Management |
| Water sourcing assets, including water pits, water wells, pipes and electrical infrastructure | Property, plant and equipment | Water Services and Operations |
| A 25% non-operating working interest in an existing saltwater disposal ("SWD") system | Property, plant and equipment | Water Services and Operations |
| Contractual right to a 10% royalty on produced water revenue generated from the SWD system | Intangible assets | Water Services and Operations |
| Contractual right to a 7.5% royalty on revenue generated from nonhazardous oilfield solids waste disposal site | Intangible assets | Land and Resource Management |

---

The combination of the 25% non-operating working interest and the 10% royalty interest from the SWD system entitles the Company to 32.5% of produced water revenues generated from the SWD system. As a 25% non-operating working interest owner, the Company is also responsible for its 25% share of operating expenses associated with the SWD system. The operator of the SWD system is responsible for the day-to-day management and operations. Of the 4,120 acres of land acquired, 392 acres are leased to, and operated by, an environmental solution ("ES") company that operates a nonhazardous oilfield solids

waste disposal site. The ES company pays a 7.5% royalty, on revenue generated, to the Company. The Company reports the royalty received as SLEM revenue.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method and, therefore, the Acquired Assets were recorded based on their fair value on a nonrecurring basis on the date of acquisition and are subject to fair value adjustments under certain circumstances. In determining the fair values of the Acquired Assets, management made estimates, judgments and assumptions. Inputs used to determine fair values of assets included internally-developed models, risk-adjusted discount rates by asset class, publicly available data on land sales comparisons and other cost analysis. These fair values are considered Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy. There was no goodwill recorded in connection with this acquisition. The purchase price allocation was finalized during the year ended December 31, 2024.

The following table presents the allocation of fair value by asset class as of December 31, 2024 (in thousands):

**8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Credit Facility**

On October 23, 2025, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement among the Company, as borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and certain other lenders, which provides for a senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with aggregate commitments of $500.0 million, with the ability, subject to lender approval, to increase total commitments by up to $250.0 million in minimum increments of $50.0 million. The Credit Facility matures on October 23, 2029.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at either (i) term SOFR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.25% to 2.50%, or (ii) a base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.50%, in each case depending on the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio. The base rate is the greatest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (b) the administrative agent's prime rate, and (c) one-month term SOFR plus 1.00%. The Company also pays commitment fees on the unused portion of the Credit Facility and customary letter of credit fees.

The Credit Facility is unsecured; however, it becomes subject to a springing security interest on substantially all equity securities of the Company's subsidiaries if the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio exceeds 2.50 to 1.0. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants and customary events of default, including payment defaults, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events and change-in-control provisions. As of December 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

In connection with entering into the Credit Facility, the Company incurred $5.1 million of debt issuance costs. These costs are recorded in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2025, unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Credit Facility were $4.9 million.

Interest expense on the Credit Facility includes amortization of debt issuance costs, commitment fees on the unused portion of the facility and, if applicable, interest on outstanding borrowings. For the year ended December 31, 2025, interest expense related to the Credit Facility was $0.7 million, including $0.2 million of amortization of debt issuance costs. The facility was undrawn during the period.

**9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits**

*Defined Contribution Plan*

TPL has a defined contribution plan available to all eligible employees. Qualifying participants may receive a matching contribution based on the amount participants contribute to the plan up to 6% of their qualifying compensation. TPL contributed approximately $1.1 million, $0.9 million, and $0.8 million to the defined contribution plan for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Additionally, for the 2025 plan year, qualified participants may receive a discretionary employer non-elective contribution of 6% of compensation, subject to the IRS annual compensation limitation of $350,000. TPL accrued $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025.

*Defined Benefit Pension Plan*

The Restated Texas Pacific Land Corporation Employees' Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan") was frozen for benefit accruals and closed to new participants effective as of December 31, 2024, and on December 31, 2025, the Pension Plan was terminated.

Prior to the freezing of the Pension Plan, the Pension Plan was a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and was available to all eligible employees who had completed one year of continuous service with TPL during which they completed at least 1,000 hours of service. The Pension Plan provided for a normal retirement benefit at age 65. Contributions to the Pension Plan reflect benefits accrued with respect to participants' services to date, as well as the amount actuarially determined to pay lifetime benefits to participants and their beneficiaries upon retirement.

During 2024, the Company irrevocably transferred $3.4 million of the Pension Plan's defined benefit obligations and related plan assets to a third-party insurance company in an annuity buyout. The transaction resulted in no changes to the benefits to be received by the retired and deferred vested participants. The Company recognized a realized non-cash settlement gain on the annuity buyout of $0.7 million. The gain is included in other income (expense) on the consolidated statement of income.

The projected Pension Plan benefit obligation as of December 31, 2025, was impacted by changes in assumptions used as of that date compared to assumptions used as of December 31, 2024. As the Pension Plan has been terminated, liquidation basis termination assumptions were used in the calculation as of December 31, 2025. These changes included a decrease in the discount rate from 5.75% as of December 31, 2024 to 5.47% as of December 31, 2025 due to changes in methodology to align with the assumptions that will be used to settle benefit obligations upon final distribution to participants and other assumptions related to anticipated participant elections of annuity versus lump sum distribution at final settlement. The effect of these assumption changes was an increase in the projected benefit obligation of approximately $0.1 million.

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)As the Pension Plan was frozen effective December 31, 2024, this assumption is not applicable in the calculation of the benefit obligations as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.*

The expected return on Pension Plan assets assumption of 7.0% was selected by TPL based on historical real rates of return for the current asset mix and an assumption with respect to future inflation. The rate was determined based on a long-term allocation of about two-thirds short-term cash equivalent securities and one-third fixed income; historical real rates of return of about and 2.5% and 8.5% for cash equivalent securities and fixed income, respectively; and assuming a long-term inflation rate of 2.5%.

The Pension Plan has a formal investment policy statement, which was changed at the end of 2025 due to the termination of the Pension Plan and pending distribution of assets. The Pension Plan's investment objective is to minimize investment rate risk on the assets needed to satisfy the Pension Plan's benefit obligations through investment in fixed income assets with durations matching the duration of the benefit obligations and to protect principal on the remaining assets through investment in cash equivalent securities. This objective emphasizes funded status protection rather than actual rate of return due to the short time horizon until assets are expected to be distributed. Diversification is achieved through investment in various classes of taxable bonds and U.S. Treasury bonds of varying durations. The asset allocation will be reviewed regularly with respect to the target allocations and rebalancing adjustments and/or target allocation changes will be made as appropriate. Our current funding policy is to maintain the Pension Plan's fully funded status on an ERISA minimum funding basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)Nonvested PSUs as of January 1, 2025 included 31,617 RTSR (as defined below) PSUs and 31,617 FCF (as defined below) PSUs. If the maximum of the performance metrics described in the applicable PSU agreements are achieved, the actual number of shares that will ultimately vest pursuant to the PSU agreements will exceed target PSUs by 100% (i.e., a collective 63,234 additional shares would be issued).*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(2)The PSUs were granted on February 15, 2025 and include 5,772 RTSR PSUs (based on target) with a grant date fair value of $638 per share and 5,772 FCF PSUs (based on target) with a grant date fair value of $457 per share. If the maximum amount of the performance metrics described in the applicable PSU agreements are achieved, the actual number of shares that will ultimately vest pursuant to the PSU agreements will exceed target PSUs by 100% (i.e., a collective 11,544 additional shares would be issued).*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(3)Vested PSUs are based on the original number of PSUs granted (i.e., target units). The actual number of shares delivered upon vesting of PSUs during the year ended December 31, 2025 totaled 43,092 shares, of which 18,750 shares were surrendered by employees to the Company upon vesting to settle tax withholding obligations.*

Each PSU has a value equal to one share of Common Stock. The PSUs will vest three years after grant if certain performance metrics are met, as follows: 50% of the PSUs may be earned based on the Company's relative total stockholder return ("RTSR") over the applicable three-year measurement period compared to the SPDR<sup>®</sup> S&P<sup>®</sup> Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF ("XOP") Index, and 50% of the PSUs may be earned based on the cumulative free cash flow per share ("FCF") over the three-year vesting period. As the RTSR PSUs are market-based awards, their grant date fair value was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model that uses the same input assumptions as the Black-Scholes model to determine the expected potential ranking of the Company against the XOP Index (i.e., the probability of satisfying the market condition defined in the awards). Expected volatility in the model was estimated based on the volatility of historical stock prices over a period matching the expected term of the awards. The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury yield constant

------

maturities for a term matching the expected term of the awards. The inputs for the Monte Carlo simulation model are designated as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.

*Equity Plan for Non-Employee Directors*

The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2021 Directors Plan is 90,000 shares, which may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares (if any), treasury shares, or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner.

*One Big Beautiful Bill Act*

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBBA") was signed into law. The provisions of the OBBBA impacting the Company primarily related to accelerated depreciation and immediate expensing of capitalized research and development costs. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on our annual effective tax rate in 2025.

*Unrecognized Tax Benefits and Open Tax Years*

The Company is subject to taxation in the United States, Texas, and New Mexico. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for tax years prior to 2022.

The Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025 or 2024. Accordingly, changes in unrecognized tax benefits did not have a material impact on the Company's effective tax rate during the periods presented.

**13.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Earnings Per Share**

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus unvested RSAs and other nonvested awards granted pursuant to our incentive and equity compensation plans. The computation of diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if all outstanding awards under the incentive and equity compensation plans were converted into shares of Common Stock or resulted in the issuance of shares of Common Stock that would then share in the earnings of the Company. The number of dilutive securities is computed using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the computation of EPS for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 (in thousands, except number of shares and per share data):

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|

| Net income | $481376 | $453960 | $405645 |
| Basic earnings per share: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share | 68949240 | 68958591 | 69132915 |
| Basic earnings per share | $6.98 | $6.58 | $5.87 |
| Diluted earnings per share: |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share | 68949240 | 68958591 | 69132915 |
| Effect of dilutive securities: |  |  |  |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Weighted average shares outstanding for diluted earnings per share | 69027492 | 69059252 | 69179535 |
| Diluted earnings per share | $6.97 | $6.57 | $5.86 |

---

RSAs are included in the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, but omitted from the basic earnings per share calculation until such time as the RSAs vest. Certain stock awards granted are not included in the dilutive securities in the table above as they are anti-dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2023. There were no anti-dilutive securities for the year ended December 31, 2024.

**14.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commitments and Contingencies**

*Litigation*

Management is not aware of any legal, environmental or other commitments or contingencies that would have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity as of December 31, 2025, other than as described below.

Prior to January 1, 2022, ad valorem taxes with respect to our historical royalty interests were paid directly by third parties pursuant to an existing arrangement. After the completion of our Corporate Reorganization, we received notice from a third party that it no longer intended to pay the ad valorem taxes related to such historical royalty interests. In order to protect the historical royalty interests from any potential tax liens for non-payment of ad valorem taxes, we have accrued and/or paid such ad valorem taxes since January 1, 2022. While we intend to seek reimbursement from the third party for such taxes, we are unable to estimate the amount and/or likelihood of such reimbursement, and accordingly, no loss recovery receivable has been recorded as of December 31, 2025.

*Lease Commitments*

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, we have recorded right-of-use assets of $13.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and lease liabilities of $17.8 million and $1.3 million, respectively, primarily related to operating leases in connection with our administrative offices located in Dallas and Midland, Texas. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a new office lease, expiring in May 2036, for the relocation of its headquarters in Dallas, Texas. The

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i273d6049f2074e76a9b1e6bc186f5978_13)</u>

office lease agreement for our Midland, Texas, office expires in July 2027. The office lease agreements require monthly rent payments, and the operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Operating lease costs were $1.4 million and $0.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

While certain of our lease agreements contain covenants governing the use of the leased assets or require us to maintain certain levels of insurance, none of our lease agreements include material financial covenants or limitations. There are no residual value guarantees in our lease commitments. The weighted-average lease term for our operating lease liabilities is approximately 10.2 years. The weighted average discount rate of our operating leases is 6.6%.

Future minimum lease payments are as follows (in thousands):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Year ending December 31,** | **Amount** |
| 2026 | $1613 |
| 2027 | 2401 |
| 2028 | 2275 |

| Total lease payments | 25250 |
| Less: imputed interest | (7462) |

The shares of Common Stock retained a par value of $0.01 per share. Accordingly, an amount equal to the par value of the increased shares resulting from the stock split was reclassified from "Additional paid-in capital" to "Common Stock."

On March 26, 2024, we effected a three-for-one stock split in the form of a stock dividend of two additional shares of Common Stock outstanding to stockholders of record as of March 18, 2024.

*Dividends*

For the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid total regular cash dividends of $2.13 per share of Common Stock. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we paid total regular cash dividends of $1.70 per share of Common Stock and special dividends of $3.33 per share of Common Stock.

*Stock Repurchase Program* 

On November 1, 2022, our board of directors (the "Board") approved a stock repurchase program, which became effective January 1, 2023, to purchase up to an aggregate of $250.0 million of our outstanding Common Stock. The Company opportunistically repurchases stock under the stock repurchase program with funds generated by cash from operations. The stock repurchase program may be suspended from time to time, modified, extended or discontinued by the Board at any time. Purchases under the stock repurchase program may be made through a combination of open market repurchases in compliance with Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, privately negotiated transactions, and/or other transactions at the Company's discretion, including under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan implemented by the Company, and are subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. As of December 31, 2025, the remaining amount authorized under the approved stock repurchase program was $170.2 million.

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we repurchased $8.4 million and $29.2 million shares of our Common Stock, respectively.

**16.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Business Segment Reporting**

During the periods presented, we reported our financial performance based on the following reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. We eliminate inter-segment revenues and expenses, if any, upon consolidation. There were no inter-segment revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023.

The Land and Resource Management segment encompasses the business of managing our approximately 882,000 surface acres of land and our approximately 224,000 NRA of oil and gas royalty interests, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. The revenue streams of this segment consist primarily of royalties from oil and gas, revenues from easements and commercial leases, and land and material sales.

The Water Services and Operations segment encompasses the business of providing a full-service water offering to operators in the Permian Basin. The revenue streams of this segment primarily consist of revenue generated from sales of sourced and treated water as well as revenue from produced water royalties.

**17.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subsequent Events**

We evaluated events that occurred after the balance sheet date through the date these financial statements were issued, and the following events that met recognition or disclosure criteria were identified:

*Dividends Declared* 

On February 10, 2026, our Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.60 per share, payable on March 16, 2026 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 2, 2026.

**18.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Supplemental Oil and Gas Reserve Information (Unaudited)**

The Company's oil and gas reserves are attributable solely to properties within the United States.

*Our Share of Oil and Gas Produced*

We measure our share of oil and gas produced in barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe"). One Boe equals one barrel of crude oil, condensate, NGLs (natural gas liquids) or approximately 6,000 cubic feet of gas. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 our share of oil and gas produced was approximately 34.6, 26.8, and 23.5 thousand Boe per day, respectively.

*Capitalized Oil and Gas Costs*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*(1)Oil and gas revenues are reported net of production taxes.*

*Analysis of Changes in Oil and Gas PDP Reserves*

PDP reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods, or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well. The Company's oil and gas properties are located in the Permian Basin.

The PDP reserve estimates and their associated future net cash flows were prepared by Ryder Scott Company, L.P. ("Ryder Scott"), an independent third-party petroleum engineering firm, as of December 31, 2025. The reserve report covers only PDP reserves and does not include undeveloped minerals or royalties. The oil and gas PDP reserve estimates represent the Company's net ownership interest in its proved properties and were estimated in accordance with guidelines established by the SEC. Reserve studies were not prepared for periods prior to December 31, 2024. Accordingly, comparative reserve information for those periods was derived from the December 31, 2024, reserve report by rolling volumes backwards from 2024 to 2022 to reflect historical production. Therefore, no revisions of prior estimates were recorded for these periods.

| Standard measure of discounted future net cash flows | $1015534 | $1008636 | $821518 |

---

Reserve estimates and future cash flows are based on the average market prices for sales of oil and natural gas adjusted for basis differentials, on the first calendar day of each month during the year. The average prices used for 2025, 2024, and 2023 were $65.34, $76.32, and $78.21 per barrel for crude oil and $1.93, $2.13, and $2.64 per Mcf for natural gas, respectively.

Future production costs are computed primarily by the Company's petroleum engineers by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in producing the oil and gas PDP reserves at the end of the year, based on year-end costs and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. A discount factor of 10% was used to reflect the timing of future net cash flows.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is not intended to represent the replacement cost or fair value of the properties. An estimate of fair value would also take into account, among other things, the recovery of reserves not presently classified as proved, anticipated future changes in prices and costs, and a discount factor more representative of the time value of money and the risks inherent in oil and gas reserve estimates.

(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as otherwise required by applicable law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together as a class with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation) or pursuant to the DGCL. (C) Subject to the rights and preferences, if any, applicable to shares of Preferred Stock or any series thereof, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by them such dividends and distributions (payable in cash, stock or property), if, when and as may be declared thereon by the Board, at any time and from time to time, out of any funds or assets of the Corporation legally available therefor and in such amounts as the Board in its direction shall determine. (D) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, after payment or provision for payment of the debts and other liabilities of the Corporation and subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of Preferred Stock or any series thereof having a preference over or the right to participate with the Common Stock as to distributions upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive all of the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Common Stock held by them. A dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Corporation, as such terms are used in this paragraph (D), shall not be deemed to be occasioned by or to include any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or corporations or other entity or a sale, lease, exchange or conveyance of all or a part of the assets of the Corporation. (E) No stockholder shall, by reason of the holding of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation, have any preemptive or preferential right to acquire or subscribe for any shares or securities of any class or series, whether now or hereafter authorized, which may at any time be issued, sold or offered for sale by the Corporation, unless specifically provided for in a Preferred Stock Designation. SECTION 4.4 No Cumulative Voting. There shall be no cumulative voting in the election of directors. ARTICLE V DIRECTORS SECTION 5.1 Term and Classes.

------

![](a31-secondamendedandrest005.jpg)

(A) The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board elected in accordance with this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws. In addition to the powers and authorities expressly conferred upon them by statute or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws, the directors are hereby empowered to exercise all such powers and do all such acts and things as may be exercised or done by the Corporation. (B) The directors, other than those who may be elected by the holders of any series of Preferred Stock as specified in the related Preferred Stock Designation, shall be and are divided, with respect to the time for which they severally hold office, into three classes, with the term of the class designated as the "third class" of directors in the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation effective on January 11, 2021, expiring at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, and the terms of the classes elected at the annual meeting of stockholders held in 2021 and 2022, respectively, expiring at the 2024 and 2025 annual meeting of stockholders; provided that the division of directors into classes shall terminate at the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, but subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors separately as a class, each director elected by the stockholders after the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders shall serve for a term expiring at the first annual meeting of stockholders held after such director's election. Each director shall hold office until his or her successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, subject, however, to such director's earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. SECTION 5.2 Vacancies. Subject to applicable law and the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding, any newly created directorship that results from an increase in the number of directors or any vacancy on the Board that results from the death, incapacity, resignation, disqualification or removal of any director or from any other cause shall, unless otherwise required by law or by resolution of the Board, be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and shall not be filled by the stockholders. Subject to the rights of any series of Preferred Stock entitled to elect directors separately as a class, any director appointed to a vacant or newly created directorship shall serve for a term expiring at the next election of the class for which such director shall have been chosen or, following the termination of the division of directors into three classes, at the next annual meeting of stockholders held after their appointment. No decrease in the number of authorized directors constituting the Board shall shorten the term of any incumbent director. SECTION 5.3 Removal. Subject to the rights of the holders of shares of any series of Preferred Stock, if any, to elect additional directors pursuant to this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation thereunder), any director serving in a class of directors expiring at the third annual meeting of stockholders following their election, and any director serving in the class expiring at the 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, shall be removable only for cause, and all other directors shall be removable either with or without cause. The removal of any director shall require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class and acting at a meeting of the stockholders in accordance with the DGCL, subject to any greater vote provided for directors elected separately by the holders of one or more series of Preferred Stock. Except as applicable law otherwise provides, cause for the removal of a director shall be deemed to exist only if the director whose removal is proposed: (1) has been convicted of a felony by a court of competent jurisdiction and that conviction is no longer subject to direct appeal; (2) has been found to have been grossly negligent in the performance of his or her duties to the Corporation in any matter of substantial importance to the Corporation by (a) the affirmative vote of at least 80% of the directors then in office (other than the director whose removal is proposed) at any meeting of the Board called for that purpose or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction; or (3) has been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction to be mentally incompetent, which mental incompetency directly affects his or her ability to serve as a director of the Corporation.

![](a31-secondamendedandrest006.jpg)

SECTION 5.4 Number. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors under specified circumstances, if any, the number of directors shall be fixed from time to time exclusively pursuant to a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of a majority of the total number of authorized directors (whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships). Unless and except to the extent that the Bylaws so provide, the election of directors need not be by written ballot. ARTICLE VI STOCKHOLDER ACTION SECTION 6.1 Written Consents. Subject to the rights of holders of any series of Preferred Stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by the stockholders of the Corporation (a) may, pursuant to a resolution of and at the direction of the Board, be taken by consent in writing of such stockholders and (b) otherwise must be taken at a duly held annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be taken by any consent in writing of such stockholders. ARTICLE VII SPECIAL MEETINGS SECTION 7.1 Special Meetings. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock then outstanding and to the requirements of applicable law, special meetings of stockholders of the Corporation may be called, at any time for any purpose or purposes, by the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Board. The Board may postpone, reschedule or cancel any special meeting of stockholders previously called by the Board. A special meeting of stockholders shall be called by the Secretary of the Corporation upon written request by one or more stockholders of record, representing stockholders owning beneficially or of record at least twenty five percent (25%) of all outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation, as determined pursuant to the Bylaws, and who otherwise comply with such other requirements and procedures set forth in the Bylaws, as now or hereinafter in effect. The Board may fix the date, time and place, if any, of such special meeting, either within or without the State of Delaware. ARTICLE VIII BYLAWS SECTION 8.1 Bylaws. In furtherance of, and not in limitation of, the powers conferred by the laws of the State of Delaware, the Board is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws. Any adoption, amendment or repeal of the Bylaws by the Board shall require the approval of the Board. Stockholders shall also have the power to adopt, amend or repeal the Bylaws; provided, however, that, in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of the Corporation required by law or by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws may be adopted, altered, amended or repealed by the stockholders of the Corporation only by the affirmative vote of holders of not less than a majority in voting power of the then-outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class. No Bylaws hereafter made or adopted, nor any repeal of or amendment thereto, shall invalidate any prior act of the Board that was valid at the time it was taken. ARTICLE IX LIMITATION OF DIRECTOR LIABILITY SECTION 9.1 Limitation of Director Liability. No director of the Corporation shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as it now exists. In addition to the circumstances in which a director of the Corporation is not personally liable as set

------

![](a31-secondamendedandrest007.jpg)

forth in the preceding sentence, a director of the Corporation shall not be liable to the fullest extent permitted by any amendment to the DGCL hereafter enacted that further limits the liability of a director. Any amendment, repeal or modification of this Article IX shall be prospective only and shall not affect any limitation on liability of a director for acts or omissions occurring prior to the date of such amendment, repeal or modification. ARTICLE X AMENDMENT OF CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION SECTION 10.1 Amendments. (A) The Corporation shall have the right, subject to any express provisions or restrictions contained in this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, from time to time, to amend this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or any provision hereof in any manner now or hereafter provided by applicable law, and all rights and powers of any kind conferred upon a director or stockholder of the Corporation by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or any amendment hereof are subject to such right of the Corporation. (B) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws (and in addition to any other vote that may be required by applicable law or this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation), the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, shall be required to amend, alter or repeal any provision of this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation. ARTICLE XI FORUM SELECTION SECTION 11.1 Exclusive Forum. (A) Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the sole and exclusive forums for any stockholder (including a beneficial owner) to bring (1) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (2) any action or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, employee, agent or stockholder of the Corporation, (3) any action or proceeding asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees or agents arising pursuant to, or seeking to enforce any right, obligation or remedy under, any provision of the DGCL, the laws of the State of Texas, the laws of the State of New York, the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws (as each may be amended from time to time), or (4) any action or proceeding asserting a claim against the Corporation, its directors, officers or employees or agents governed by the internal affairs doctrine, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any state or federal court residing with the State of Delaware) or the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas in Dallas, Texas (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any district court of Dallas County in the State of Texas) (each, a "Permissible Court"), in each case subject to the Permissible Court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants. (B) Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum (which consent may be given at any time, including during the pendency of litigation), the sole and exclusive forum for any action asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, shall be the federal district courts of the United States.

(C) Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding or owning (or continuing to hold or own) any interest in shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to the provisions of this Article XI. (D) If any provision or provisions of this Article XI shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any person or entity or circumstance for any reason whatsoever, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article XI (including, without limitation, each portion of any sentence of this Article XI containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) and the application of such provision to other persons or entities and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

## Exhibit 4.1

![](a41-tplxdescriptionofsec001.jpg)

Exhibit No. 4.1 DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK The following description of the capital stock of Texas Pacific Land Corporation ("TPL," "we," "our" or "us") is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to TPL's Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time, the "Certificate of Incorporation") and TPL's Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amened from time to time, the "Bylaws"). General Our authorized capital stock consists of 139,610,808 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. Common Stock As of February 9, 2026, 68,941,554 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding, all of which were fully paid and nonassessable. Voting Rights Except as provided by law or in a preferred stock designation, holders of our common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share held upon all matters which holders of our common stock are entitled to vote, and the holders of shares of our common stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters upon which the stockholders are entitled to vote. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights. The number of authorized shares of our common stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding shares of our stock entitled to vote thereon irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (or any successor provision thereto) ("DGCL"), and no vote of the holders of either preferred stock or common stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor. Dividend Rights Subject to the rights and preferences, if any, applicable to shares of preferred stock or any series thereof, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to receive, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of common stock held by them, such dividends and distributions (payable in cash, stock or property), if, when and as may be declared thereon by our Board of Directors (the "Board"), at any time and from time to time, out of any funds or assets of TPL that are legally available therefor at such time and in such amounts as the Board in its direction will determine. Liquidation Rights In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of TPL, holders of our common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets of TPL remaining, after TPL pays all of its debts and other liabilities and any amounts TPL may owe to the holders of preferred stock, if any. Other Matters Holders of our common stock do not have preemptive or preferential rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock. Preferred Stock Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the Board, subject to any limitations prescribed by law and the rights of any series of preferred stock then outstanding, if any, without further stockholder approval, to authorize the issuance of preferred stock from time to time in one or more series, covering up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares

------

![](a41-tplxdescriptionofsec002.jpg)

of preferred stock. The Board is authorized under the Certificate of Incorporation to fix the designations, powers, preferences, privileges, and relative, participating, optional or special rights, and qualifications, limitations and restrictions relating to each such series of preferred stock, including, but not limited to, voting rights, the number of shares to constitute the series, restrictions on issuance, redemption rights, dividend rights, liquidation preferences and conversion rights. Except as provided by law or in a preferred stock designation, the holders of preferred stock will not be entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders. As of February 9, 2026, we did not have any shares of preferred stock outstanding. Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law and Provisions of our Restated Certificate of Incorporation and our Amended and Restated Bylaws Some provisions of Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws contain provisions that could make the following transactions more difficult: acquisitions of us by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or removal of our incumbent officers and directors. These provisions may also have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish or could deter transactions that stockholders may otherwise consider to be in their best interest or in our best interests, including transactions that might result in a premium over the market price for our shares. These provisions, summarized below, are expected to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids. These provisions are also designed to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate with us first. We believe that the benefits of increased protection and our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure us outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging these proposals because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms. Delaware Law We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL ("Section 203") regulating corporate takeovers. In general, those provisions prohibit a Delaware corporation, including those whose securities are listed for trading on the NYSE, from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless: • the transaction is approved by the Board before the date the interested stockholder attained that status; • upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of TPL outstanding at the time the transaction commenced; or • on or after such time the business combination is approved by the Board and authorized at a meeting of stockholders by at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 203, an interested stockholder is defined to include: (a) any person that is the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation, or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and was the owner of 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation at any time within the three years immediately prior to the date of determination; and (b) the affiliates and associates of any such person. Section 203 may make it more difficult for a person who would be an interested stockholder to effect various business combinations with a corporation for a three-year period. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage persons interested in acquiring us to negotiate in advance with the Board, because the stockholder approval requirement would be avoided if a majority of the directors then in office approve either the business combination or the transaction that results in any such person becoming an interested stockholder. These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management. It is possible that these provisions could make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that our stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

------

![](a41-tplxdescriptionofsec003.jpg)

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Our Bylaws Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in control or change in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares or might otherwise deem to be in their best interest. Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws: • establish advance notice procedures with regard to stockholder proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election as directors or new business to be brought before meetings of our stockholders. These procedures provide that notice of stockholder proposals must be timely and given in writing to our corporate secretary prior to the meeting at which the action is to be taken. Generally, to be timely, notice must be received by our corporate secretary at our principal executive offices not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day before the one-year anniversary of the immediately preceding year's annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the 90th day before such anniversary. These requirements may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before the stockholders at an annual or special meeting; • provide the Board the ability to authorize undesignated preferred stock. This ability makes it possible for the Board to issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to change control of us. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of our company; • provide that, subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock, the authorized number of directors shall be fixed from time to time, within a range of seven to eleven directors, by a resolution of the majority of the authorized directors; • provide that members of the Board will generally be elected by a majority of the votes cast with respect to the director at any meeting for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, provided that in the case of a contested election, the directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the shares represented in person or by proxy at such meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors; • provide that any newly created directorship that results from an increase in the number of directors or any vacancy that arises on the Board shall be filled by a majority of the directors then in office; • provide that our Bylaws can be amended or repealed by a majority of the Board; • provide that, subject to the rights of holders of any series of preferred stock, any action required or permitted to be taken by our stockholders must be taken at a duly held annual or special meeting of stockholders and may not be taken by any consent in writing of such stockholders, except as otherwise authorized by the Board; • provide that the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of stock of TPL shall be required to remove any or all of the directors from office, subject to any greater vote provided for directors elected by holders of our preferred stock, if any, and such removal may be with or without cause; and • prohibit cumulative voting on all matters. Forum Selection Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if such court does not have jurisdiction, any state or federal

------

![](a41-tplxdescriptionofsec004.jpg)

court residing within the State of Delaware) or the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas in Dallas, Texas (or if such court does not have jurisdiction, any district court in Dallas County in the State of Texas) will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be the sole and exclusive forums for: (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; (b) any action or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our current or former directors, officers, employees, agents or stockholders; (c) any action or proceeding asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers, employees or agents arising pursuant to, or seeking to enforce any right, obligation or remedy under any provision of the DGCL, the laws of the State of Texas, the laws of the State of New York, our Certificate of Incorporation or our Bylaws; or (d) any action or proceeding asserting a claim against us or any of our directors, officers, employees or agents governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in each such case, subject to the applicable court having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants in such action or proceeding. Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the federal district courts of the United States will be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in shares of our capital stock will be deemed to have notice of, and to have consented to, our forum selection provisions. Although we believe these provisions will benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of law for the specified types of actions and proceedings, these provisions may limit a stockholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, employees and agents, which may discourage such lawsuits. If a court were to find that any of these provisions are inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we could incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Limitation of Liability and Indemnification Matters Our Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as it now exists. The DGCL authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors' fiduciary duties as directors, except: (a) for any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; (b) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (c) for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, as provided under Section 174 of the DGCL; or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Any amendment, repeal or modification of these provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation will be prospective only and will not affect any limitation on liability of a director for acts or omissions that occurred prior to any such amendment, repeal or modification. Our Bylaws also provide that we will indemnify and hold harmless to the fullest extent permitted by law any person who becomes involved in any legal proceeding by reason of the fact that they are or were a director, trustee or officer of TPL or any predecessor in interest to the assets of TPL a ("predecessor"). Our Bylaws also provide that we will indemnify and advance expenses to any such covered person on the condition that such person will repay all amounts advanced if it is ultimately determined by a court that such person is not entitled to be indemnified. Our Bylaws permit us to purchase and maintain insurance, at our expense, to protect ourselves and any person who is or was serving as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of TPL or any predecessor, regardless of whether we could have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL, our Bylaws or otherwise. We have entered into, and intend to enter into, indemnification agreements with each of our current and future directors, and we may enter into indemnification agreements with our future officers. These agreements require us to indemnify such individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liability that may arise by reason of their service to us, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We believe that the limitation of liability provision in our Certificate of Incorporation, the indemnification and insurance-related provisions in our Bylaws and indemnification agreements will facilitate our ability to continue to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve TPL.

(Ryder Scott) has prepared an estimate of the proved producing reserves, future production, and income attributable to certain royalty interests of Texas Pacific Land Corporation, (TPL) as of December 31, 2025. The diverse inventory of properties is located primarily in the states of Texas and New Mexico. The reserves and income data were estimated based on the definitions and disclosure guidelines of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) contained in Title 17, Code of Federal Regulations, Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting, Final Rule released January 14, 2009 in the Federal Register (SEC regulations). Our third-party study, completed on January 5, 2026 and presented herein, was prepared for public disclosure by TPL in filings made with the SEC in accordance with the disclosure requirements set forth in the SEC regulations. The properties evaluated by Ryder Scott represent all the total net proved producing liquid hydrocarbon and gas reserves of TPL as of December 31, 2025. The estimated reserves and future net income amounts presented in this report, as of December 31, 2025, are related to hydrocarbon prices. The hydrocarbon prices used in the preparation of this report are based on the average prices during the 12-month period prior to the "as of date" of this report, determined as the unweighted arithmetic averages of the prices in effect on the first-day-of-the-month for each month within such period, unless prices were defined by contractual arrangements, as required by the SEC regulations. Actual future prices may vary considerably from the prices required by SEC regulations. The reserves volumes and the income attributable thereto have a direct relationship to the hydrocarbon prices actually received; therefore, volumes of reserves actually recovered and the amounts of income actually received may differ significantly from the estimated quantities presented in this report. The results of this study are summarized as follows.

Liquid hydrocarbons are expressed in standard 42 U.S. gallon barrels and shown herein as thousands of barrels (MBarrels). All gas volumes are reported on an "as sold" basis expressed in millions of cubic feet (MMCF) at the official temperature and pressure bases of the areas in which the gas reserves are located. In this report, the revenues, deductions, and income data are expressed as thousands of U.S. dollars ($M). The estimates of the reserves, future production, and income attributable to properties in this report were prepared using the economic software package ARIESTM Petroleum Economics and Reserves Software, a copyrighted program of Halliburton. Ryder Scott has found this program to be generally acceptable, but notes that certain summaries and calculations may vary due to rounding and may not exactly match the sum of the properties being summarized. Furthermore, one-line economic summaries may vary slightly from the more detailed cash flow projections of the same properties, also due to rounding. The rounding differences are not material. The future gross revenue is after the deduction of production taxes. Since the evaluation includes only royalty interests, the only deductions included in the cash flows are ad valorem taxes, while the normal direct costs of operating the wells are used only to estimate economic lives. The future net income is before the deduction of state and federal income taxes and general administrative overhead and has not been adjusted for outstanding loans that may exist nor does it include any adjustment for cash on hand or undistributed income. Liquid hydrocarbon reserves account for approximately 88 percent and gas reserves account for the remaining 12 percent of total future gross revenue from proved reserves. The discounted future net income shown above was calculated using a discount rate of 10 percent per annum compounded monthly. Future net income was discounted at four other discount rates which were also compounded monthly. These results are shown in summary form as follows.

Reserves Included in This Report The proved reserves included herein conform to the definitions as set forth in the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulations Part 210.4-10(a). An abridged version of the SEC reserves definitions from 210.4-10(a) entitled "PETROLEUM RESERVES DEFINITIONS" is included as an attachment to this report. The proved reserves status categories are defined in the attachment entitled "PETROLEUM RESERVES STATUS DEFINITIONS AND GUIDELINES" in this report. No attempt was made to quantify or otherwise account for any accumulated gas production imbalances that may exist. The proved gas volumes presented herein do not include volumes of gas consumed in operations as reserves. Reserves are "estimated remaining quantities of oil and gas and related substances anticipated to be economically producible, as of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations." All reserves estimates involve an assessment of the uncertainty relating the likelihood that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the estimated quantities determined as of the date the estimate is made. The uncertainty depends primarily on the amount of reliable geologic and engineering data available at the time of the estimate and the interpretation of these data. The relative degree of uncertainty may be conveyed by placing reserves into one of two principal categories, either proved or unproved. Unproved reserves are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves and may be further sub-categorized as probable and possible reserves to denote progressively increasing uncertainty in their recoverability. At TPL's request, this report addresses only the proved producing reserves attributable to the properties evaluated herein. Proved oil and gas reserves are "those quantities of oil and gas which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible from a given date forward." The proved reserves included herein were estimated using deterministic methods. The SEC has defined reasonable certainty for proved reserves, when based on deterministic methods, as a "high degree of confidence that the quantities will be recovered." Proved reserves estimates will generally be revised only as additional geologic or engineering data become available or as economic conditions change. For proved reserves, the SEC states that "as changes due to increased availability of geoscience (geological, geophysical, and geochemical), engineering, and economic data are made to the estimated ultimate recovery (EUR) with time, reasonably certain EUR is much more likely to increase or remain constant than to decrease." Moreover, estimates

Texas Pacific Land Corporation January 5, 2026 Page 4 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS of proved reserves may be revised as a result of future operations, effects of regulation by governmental agencies or geopolitical or economic risks. Therefore, the proved reserves included in this report are estimates only and should not be construed as being exact quantities, and if recovered, the revenues therefrom, and the actual costs related thereto, could be more or less than the estimated amounts. TPL's royalty interests may be subject to various levels of governmental controls and regulations imposed upon the operators of the subject properties. These controls and regulations may include, but may not be limited to, matters relating to land tenure and leasing, the legal rights to produce, drilling and production practices, environmental protection, marketing and pricing policies, royalties, various taxes and levies including income tax, and are subject to change from time to time. Such changes in governmental regulations and policies may cause volumes of proved reserves actually recovered and amounts of proved income actually received to differ significantly from the estimated quantities. The estimates of proved reserves presented herein were based upon a detailed study of the properties in which TPL owns a royalty interest; however, we have not made any field examination of the properties. No consideration was given in this report to potential environmental liabilities that may exist nor were any costs included for potential liabilities to restore and clean up damages, if any, caused by past operating practices. Estimates of Reserves The estimation of reserves involves two distinct determinations. The first determination results in the estimation of the quantities of recoverable oil and gas and the second determination results in the estimation of the uncertainty associated with those estimated quantities in accordance with the definitions set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulations Part 210.4-10(a). The process of estimating the quantities of recoverable oil and gas reserves relies on the use of certain generally accepted analytical procedures. These analytical procedures fall into three broad categories or methods: (1) performance-based methods, (2) volumetric-based methods and (3) analogy. These methods may be used individually or in combination by the reserves evaluator in the process of estimating the quantities of reserves. Reserves evaluators must select the method or combination of methods which in their professional judgment is most appropriate given the nature and amount of reliable geoscience and engineering data available at the time of the estimate, the established or anticipated performance characteristics of the reservoir being evaluated, and the stage of development or producing maturity of the property. In many cases, the analysis of the available geoscience and engineering data and the subsequent interpretation of this data may indicate a range of possible outcomes in an estimate, irrespective of the method selected by the evaluator. When a range in the quantity of reserves is identified, the evaluator must determine the uncertainty associated with the incremental quantities of the reserves. If the reserves quantities are estimated using the deterministic incremental approach, the uncertainty for each discrete incremental quantity of the reserves is addressed by the reserves category assigned by the evaluator. Therefore, it is the categorization of reserves quantities as proved, probable and/or possible that addresses the inherent uncertainty in the estimated quantities reported. For proved reserves, uncertainty is defined by the SEC as reasonable certainty wherein the "quantities actually recovered are much more likely to be achieved than not." The SEC states that "probable reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves but which, together with proved reserves, are as likely as not to be recovered." The SEC states that "possible reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered than probable reserves and the total quantities ultimately recovered from a project have a low probability of exceeding proved plus probable plus possible reserves." All quantities of reserves within the same reserves category must meet the SEC definitions as noted above.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation January 5, 2026 Page 5 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS Estimates of reserves quantities and their associated reserves categories may be revised in the future as additional geoscience or engineering data become available. Furthermore, estimates of reserves quantities and their associated reserves categories may also be revised due to other factors such as changes in economic conditions, results of future operations, effects of regulation by governmental agencies or geopolitical or economic risks as previously noted herein. All of the proved producing reserves attributable to producing wells and/or reservoirs were estimated by decline curve analysis, a performance method which utilized extrapolations of historical production and pressure data available through October 2025. The data utilized in this analysis were furnished to Ryder Scott by TPL and were considered sufficient for the purpose thereof. To estimate economically producible proved oil and gas reserves and related future net cash flows, we consider many factors and assumptions including, but not limited to, the use of reservoir parameters derived from geological, geophysical and engineering data, which cannot be measured directly, economic criteria based on current costs and SEC pricing requirements, and forecasts of future production rates. Under the SEC regulations 210.4-10(a)(22)(v) and (26), proved reserves must be anticipated to be economically producible from a given date forward based on existing economic conditions including the prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. While it may reasonably be anticipated that the future prices received for the sale of production and the operating costs and other costs relating to such production may increase or decrease from those under existing economic conditions, such changes were, in accordance with rules adopted by the SEC, omitted from consideration in making this evaluation. TPL has informed us that they have furnished us all of the material accounts, records, geological and engineering data, and reports and other data required for this investigation. In preparing our forecast of future proved production and income, we have relied upon data furnished by TPL with respect to property interests owned, production from examined wells, normal direct costs of operating the wells or leases, other costs such as transportation and/or processing fees, ad valorem and production taxes, product prices based on the SEC regulations, adjustments or differentials to product prices. Ryder Scott reviewed such factual data for its reasonableness; however, we have not conducted an independent verification of the data furnished by TPL. We consider the factual data used in this report appropriate and sufficient for the purpose of preparing the estimates of reserves and future net revenues herein. In summary, we consider the assumptions, data, methods and analytical procedures used in this report appropriate for the purpose hereof, and we have used all such methods and procedures that we consider necessary and appropriate to prepare the estimates of reserves herein. The proved reserves included herein were determined in conformance with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting; Final Rule, including all references to Regulation S-X and Regulation S-K, referred to herein collectively as the "SEC Regulations." In our opinion, the proved reserves presented in this report comply with the definitions, guidelines and disclosure requirements as required by the SEC regulations. Future Production Rates For wells currently on production, our forecasts of future production rates are based on historical performance data. If no production decline trend has been established, future production rates were held constant, until a decline in ability to produce was anticipated. An estimated rate of decline was then applied until depletion of the reserves. If a decline trend has been established, this trend was used as the basis for estimating future production rates.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation January 5, 2026 Page 6 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS The future production rates from wells currently on production may be more or less than estimated because of changes including, but not limited to, reservoir performance, operating conditions related to surface facilities, compression and artificial lift, pipeline capacity and/or operating conditions, producing market demand and/or allowables or other constraints set by regulatory bodies. Hydrocarbon Prices The hydrocarbon prices used herein are based on SEC price parameters using the average prices during the 12-month period prior to the "as of date" of this report, determined as the unweighted arithmetic averages of the prices in effect on the first-day-of-the-month for each month within such period, unless prices were defined by contractual arrangements. For hydrocarbon products sold under contract, the contract prices, including fixed and determinable escalations, exclusive of inflation adjustments, were used until expiration of the contract. Upon contract expiration, the prices were adjusted to the 12-month unweighted arithmetic average as previously described. TPL furnished us with the above-mentioned average prices in effect on December 31, 2025. These initial SEC hydrocarbon prices were determined using the 12-month average first-day-of-the- month benchmark prices appropriate to the geographic area where the hydrocarbons are sold. These benchmark prices are prior to the adjustments for differentials as described herein. The table below summarizes the "benchmark prices" and "price reference" used for the geographic area included in the report. In certain geographic areas, the price reference and benchmark prices may be defined by contractual arrangements. The product prices that were actually used to determine the future gross revenue for each property reflect adjustments to the benchmark prices for gravity, quality, local conditions, and/or distance from market, referred to herein as "differentials." The differentials used in the preparation of this report were furnished to us by TPL. The differentials furnished to us were accepted as factual data and reviewed by us for their reasonableness; however, we have not conducted an independent verification of the data used by TPL to determine these differentials. In addition, the table below summarizes the net volume weighted benchmark prices adjusted for differentials and referred to herein as the "average realized prices." The average realized prices shown in the table below were determined from the total future gross revenue before production taxes and the total net reserves for the geographic area and presented in accordance with SEC disclosure requirements for the geographic area included in the report. Geographic Area Product Price Reference Average Benchmark Prices Average Proved Realized Prices North America Oil/Condensate WTI Spot $65.34/BBL $65.34/BBL United States Plant Products WTI Spot $65.34/BBL $20.26/BBL Gas Henry Hub $3.39/MMBTU $1.93/MCF The effects of derivative instruments designated as price hedges of oil and gas quantities are not reflected in our individual property evaluations.

Texas Pacific Land Corporation January 5, 2026 Page 7 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS Costs Estimated operating costs for the leases and wells in this report were furnished by TPL and include only those costs directly applicable to the leases or wells. Because TPL owns only royalty interests, the operating costs were utilized only to calculate the economic life of each entity. The operating costs furnished to us were accepted as factual data and reviewed by us for their reasonableness; however, we have not conducted an independent verification of the operating cost data used by TPL. No deduction was made for loan repayments, interest expenses, or exploration and development prepayments that were not charged directly to the leases or wells. Abandonment costs are not included or shown in our cash flows since TPL does not own working interests. Current costs used by TPL were held constant throughout the life of the properties.

RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS PETROLEUM RESERVES DEFINITIONS As Adapted From: RULE 4-10(a) of REGULATION S-X PART 210 UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (SEC) PREAMBLE On January 14, 2009, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) published the "Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting; Final Rule" in the Federal Register of National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). The "Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting; Final Rule" includes revisions and additions to the definition section in Rule 4-10 of Regulation S-X, revisions and additions to the oil and gas reporting requirements in Regulation S-K, and amends and codifies Industry Guide 2 in Regulation S-K. The "Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting; Final Rule", including all references to Regulation S-X and Regulation S-K, shall be referred to herein collectively as the "SEC regulations". The SEC regulations take effect for all filings made with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as of December 31, 2009, or after January 1, 2010. Reference should be made to the full text under Title 17, Code of Federal Regulations, Regulation S-X Part 210, Rule 4-10(a) for the complete definitions (direct passages excerpted in part or wholly from the aforementioned SEC document are denoted in italics herein). Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and gas and related substances anticipated to be economically producible, as of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. All reserve estimates involve an assessment of the uncertainty relating the likelihood that the actual remaining quantities recovered will be greater or less than the estimated quantities determined as of the date the estimate is made. The uncertainty depends chiefly on the amount of reliable geologic and engineering data available at the time of the estimate and the interpretation of these data. The relative degree of uncertainty may be conveyed by placing reserves into one of two principal classifications, either proved or unproved. Unproved reserves are less certain to be recovered than proved reserves and may be further sub-classified as probable and possible reserves to denote progressively increasing uncertainty in their recoverability. Under the SEC regulations as of December 31, 2009, or after January 1, 2010, a company may optionally disclose estimated quantities of probable or possible oil and gas reserves in documents publicly filed with the SEC. The SEC regulations continue to prohibit disclosure of estimates of oil and gas resources other than reserves and any estimated values of such resources in any document publicly filed with the SEC unless such information is required to be disclosed in the document by foreign or state law as noted in §229.1202 Instruction to Item 1202. Reserves estimates will generally be revised only as additional geologic or engineering data become available or as economic conditions change. Reserves may be attributed to either natural energy or improved recovery methods. Improved recovery methods include all methods for supplementing natural energy or altering natural forces in the reservoir to increase ultimate recovery. Examples of such methods are pressure maintenance, natural gas cycling, waterflooding, thermal methods, chemical flooding, and the use of miscible and immiscible displacement fluids. Other improved recovery methods may be developed in the future as petroleum technology continues to evolve. Reserves may be attributed to either conventional or unconventional petroleum accumulations. Petroleum accumulations are considered as either conventional or unconventional based on the nature of their in-place characteristics, extraction method applied, or degree of processing prior to sale.

------

![](a991-reservereport012.jpg)

PETROLEUM RESERVES DEFINITIONS Page 2 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS Examples of unconventional petroleum accumulations include coalbed or coalseam methane (CBM/CSM), basin-centered gas, shale gas, gas hydrates, natural bitumen and oil shale deposits. These unconventional accumulations may require specialized extraction technology and/or significant processing prior to sale. Reserves do not include quantities of petroleum being held in inventory. Because of the differences in uncertainty, caution should be exercised when aggregating quantities of petroleum from different reserves categories. RESERVES (SEC DEFINITIONS) Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X §210.4-10(a)(26) defines reserves as follows: Reserves. Reserves are estimated remaining quantities of oil and gas and related substances anticipated to be economically producible, as of a given date, by application of development projects to known accumulations. In addition, there must exist, or there must be a reasonable expectation that there will exist, the legal right to produce or a revenue interest in the production, installed means of delivering oil and gas or related substances to market, and all permits and financing required to implement the project. Note to paragraph (a)(26): Reserves should not be assigned to adjacent reservoirs isolated by major, potentially sealing, faults until those reservoirs are penetrated and evaluated as economically producible. Reserves should not be assigned to areas that are clearly separated from a known accumulation by a non-productive reservoir (i.e., absence of reservoir, structurally low reservoir, or negative test results). Such areas may contain prospective resources (i.e., potentially recoverable resources from undiscovered accumulations). PROVED RESERVES (SEC DEFINITIONS) Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X §210.4-10(a)(22) defines proved oil and gas reserves as follows: Proved oil and gas reserves. Proved oil and gas reserves are those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically producible—from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations—prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire, unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time. (i) The area of the reservoir considered as proved includes: (A) The area identified by drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any, and (B) Adjacent undrilled portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or gas on the basis of available geoscience and engineering data.

------

![](a991-reservereport013.jpg)

PETROLEUM RESERVES DEFINITIONS Page 3 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS (ii) In the absence of data on fluid contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known hydrocarbons (LKH) as seen in a well penetration unless geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establishes a lower contact with reasonable certainty. (iii) Where direct observation from well penetrations has defined a highest known oil (HKO) elevation and the potential exists for an associated gas cap, proved oil reserves may be assigned in the structurally higher portions of the reservoir only if geoscience, engineering, or performance data and reliable technology establish the higher contact with reasonable certainty. (iv) Reserves which can be produced economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including, but not limited to, fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when: (A) Successful testing by a pilot project in an area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir as a whole, the operation of an installed program in the reservoir or an analogous reservoir, or other evidence using reliable technology establishes the reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or program was based; and (B) The project has been approved for development by all necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities. (v) Existing economic conditions include prices and costs at which economic producibility from a reservoir is to be determined. The price shall be the average price during the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.

RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS PETROLEUM RESERVES STATUS DEFINITIONS AND GUIDELINES As Adapted From: RULE 4-10(a) of REGULATION S-X PART 210 UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (SEC) and 2018 PETROLEUM RESOURCES MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SPE-PRMS) Sponsored and Approved by: SOCIETY OF PETROLEUM ENGINEERS (SPE) WORLD PETROLEUM COUNCIL (WPC) AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF PETROLEUM GEOLOGISTS (AAPG) SOCIETY OF PETROLEUM EVALUATION ENGINEERS (SPEE) SOCIETY OF EXPLORATION GEOPHYSICISTS (SEG) SOCIETY OF PETROPHYSICISTS AND WELL LOG ANALYSTS (SPWLA) EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION OF GEOSCIENTISTS & ENGINEERS (EAGE) Reserves status categories define the development and producing status of wells and reservoirs. Reference should be made to Title 17, Code of Federal Regulations, Regulation S-X Part 210, Rule 4- 10(a) and the SPE-PRMS as the following reserves status definitions are based on excerpts from the original documents (direct passages excerpted from the aforementioned SEC and SPE-PRMS documents are denoted in italics herein). DEVELOPED RESERVES (SEC DEFINITIONS) Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X §210.4-10(a)(6) defines developed oil and gas reserves as follows: Developed oil and gas reserves are reserves of any category that can be expected to be recovered: (i) Through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the cost of a new well; and (ii) Through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure operational at the time of the reserves estimate if the extraction is by means not involving a well. Developed Producing (SPE-PRMS Definitions) While not a requirement for disclosure under the SEC regulations, developed oil and gas reserves may be further sub-classified according to the guidance contained in the SPE-PRMS as Producing or Non-Producing. Developed Producing Reserves Developed Producing Reserves are expected quantities to be recovered from completion intervals that are open and producing at the effective date of the estimate.

![](a991-reservereport015.jpg)

PETROLEUM RESERVES STATUS DEFINITIONS AND GUIDELINES Page 2 RYDER SCOTT COMPANY PETROLEUM CONSULTANTS Improved recovery reserves are considered producing only after the improved recovery project is in operation. Developed Non-Producing Developed Non-Producing Reserves include shut-in and behind-pipe Reserves. Shut-In Shut-in Reserves are expected to be recovered from: (1) completion intervals that are open at the time of the estimate but which have not yet started producing; (2) wells which were shut-in for market conditions or pipeline connections; or (3) wells not capable of production for mechanical reasons. Behind-Pipe Behind-pipe Reserves are expected to be recovered from zones in existing wells that will require additional completion work or future re-completion before start of production with minor cost to access these reserves. In all cases, production can be initiated or restored with relatively low expenditure compared to the cost of drilling a new well. UNDEVELOPED RESERVES (SEC DEFINITIONS) Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X §210.4-10(a)(31) defines undeveloped oil and gas reserves as follows: Undeveloped oil and gas reserves are reserves of any category that are expected to be recovered from new wells on undrilled acreage, or from existing wells where a relatively major expenditure is required for recompletion. (i) Reserves on undrilled acreage shall be limited to those directly offsetting development spacing areas that are reasonably certain of production when drilled, unless evidence using reliable technology exists that establishes reasonable certainty of economic producibility at greater distances. (ii) Undrilled locations can be classified as having undeveloped reserves only if a development plan has been adopted indicating that they are scheduled to be drilled within five years, unless the specific circumstances, justify a longer time. (iii) Under no circumstances shall estimates for undeveloped reserves be attributable to any acreage for which an application of fluid injection or other improved recovery technique is contemplated, unless such techniques have been proved effective by actual projects in the same reservoir or an analogous reservoir, as defined in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, or by other evidence using reliable technology establishing reasonable certainty.
