Nov 5 (Reuters) - Texas Pacific Land ( TPL ) missed Wall
Street expectations for third-quarter adjusted core profit on
Wednesday, as lower oil prices outweighed gains from higher
production.
Brent crude averaged about $68 a barrel in the third
quarter, marking a year-on-year decline of more than 13%, as
increased output from OPEC+ and signs of slowing global demand
continued to exert downward pressure on prices.
Texas Pacific said its realized price for oil during the
quarter was down 10.3% year-over-year at $34.10 per barrel.
The Permian-focused land and royalty company's share of
quarterly production rose nearly 30% to 36.3 million barrels of
oil from a year earlier, while royalties from oil and gas
production came to $108.7 million, compared with $94.4 million
last year.
As of December 31 2024, Texas Pacific counted energy
heavyweights such as Chevron ( CVX ), Occidental Petroleum ( OXY )
and ConocoPhillips ( COP ) as its customers.
Texas Pacific reported third-quarter revenue of $203.1
million, compared with $173.6 million during the same period a
year earlier.
Shares of the company were down nearly 1% after the bell.
The landowner reported an adjusted earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization of $173.6 million for the
quarter ended September 30, compared with analysts' average
estimate of $178 million, according to data compiled by LSEG.
