Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE: TPL) (the “Company” or “TPL”) today announced that the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $10.00 per share special dividend. The special dividend will be payable on July 15, 2024 to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 1, 2024.

“With tailwinds of excellent business execution, supportive fundamentals, and a fortress balance sheet, we’re pleased to announce a special dividend, which is the largest in TPL’s history and represents a 50% increase compared to the most recent prior split-adjusted special dividend,” said Tyler Glover, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “As we evaluate our current capital structure, capital allocation priorities, business fundamentals, and investment opportunities, we have set a target cash and cash equivalents (“cash”) balance of approximately $700 million. Above this targeted level, TPL will seek to deploy the majority of its free cash flow towards share repurchases and dividends.

“Even beyond the special dividend announced today, the Company still retains tremendous optionality to return additional capital to stockholders and to invest in attractive growth opportunities. We, along with our Board of Directors, will evaluate on a regular basis our cash balance target and capital allocation priorities as business fundamentals and macroeconomic conditions evolve. TPL continues to generate substantial free cash flow while maintaining a strong balance sheet, and we are well-positioned to drive stockholder value.”
