Permianville Royalty Trust (NYSE: PVL, the “Trust”) today announced the net profits interest calculation for June 2024. The net profits interest calculation represents reported oil production for the month of March 2024 and reported natural gas production during February 2024. The calculation includes accrued costs incurred in April 2024.

As a result of the cumulative outstanding net profits shortfall, which declined from approximately $3.9 million in the prior month to approximately $3.3 million in the current month, no distribution will be paid in July 2024 to the Trust’s unitholders of record on June 30, 2024. As discussed below, distributions cannot resume until the cumulative net profits shortfall is eliminated. Excluding the current shortfall, income from the net profits interest would have been approximately $0.6 million in the current month, or $0.01772 per unit.

The following table displays reported underlying oil and natural gas sales volumes and average received wellhead prices attributable to the current and prior month recorded net profits interest calculations.

Recorded oil cash receipts from the oil and gas properties underlying the Trust (the “Underlying Properties”) totaled $3.4 million for the current month on realized wellhead prices of $77.57/Bbl, up $0.5 million from the prior month’s oil cash receipts.

Recorded natural gas cash receipts from the Underlying Properties totaled $1.0 million for the current month on realized wellhead prices of $1.66/Mcf, up $0.4 million from the prior month. The increase in gas production and gas cash receipts, despite the drop in average prices for the month, was driven in part by the receipt of revenues from five new Haynesville wells turned to sales, completed by a public pure-play Haynesville operator of these particular Underlying Properties.

Total accrued operating expenses for the period were $2.8 million, a $0.5 million increase month-over-month. Capital expenditures increased $0.4 million from the prior period to $0.9 million.

The cumulative shortfall in net profits for the current month will be deducted from any net profits in next month’s net profits interest calculation. The Trust will not receive proceeds pursuant to its net profits interest until the cumulative net profits shortfall is eliminated. In addition, if the Trust’s cash on hand is not sufficient to pay ordinary course administrative expenses and the Trust borrows funds or draws on the letter of credit that has been provided to the Trust, or if the Sponsor advances funds to the Trust to pay such expenses, no further distributions will be made to Trust unitholders until such amounts borrowed or drawn, or advanced to the Trust, are repaid. At this time based on current commodity prices, the Sponsor anticipates that the Underlying Properties will return to generating positive net profits later in 2024.

About Permianville Royalty Trust

As described in the Trust’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), the amount of the periodic distributions is expected to fluctuate, depending on the proceeds received by the Trust as a result of actual production volumes, oil and gas prices, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, and the Trust’s administrative expenses, among other factors.

Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Statements

This press release contains statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements contained in this press release, other than statements of historical facts, are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of these provisions. These forward-looking statements include the amount and date of any anticipated distribution to unitholders and expectations regarding the future generation of net profits from the Underlying Properties. The anticipated distribution is based, in large part, on the amount of cash received or expected to be received by the Trust from the Sponsor with respect to the relevant period. The amount of such cash received or expected to be received by the Trust (and its ability to pay distributions) has been and will continue to be directly affected by the volatility in commodity prices, which can fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors that are beyond the control of the Trust and the Sponsor. Low oil and natural gas prices will reduce profits to which the Trust is entitled, which will reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders and in certain periods could result in no distributions to unitholders. Other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include expenses of the Trust, reserves for anticipated future expenses, and public health concerns, such as the COVID‑19 pandemic. In addition, future monthly capital expenditures may exceed the average levels experienced in 2023 and prior periods, which could reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders and in certain periods could result in no distributions to unitholders. Statements made in this press release are qualified by the cautionary statements made in this press release. Neither the Sponsor nor the Trustee intends, and neither assumes any obligation, to update any of the statements included in this press release. An investment in units issued by the Trust is subject to the risks described in the Trust’s filings with the SEC, including the risks described in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on March 22, 2024. The Trust’s quarterly and other filed reports are or will be available over the Internet at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
