Q2 2025 Run-Rate Daily Production of 25,355 Boe/d (6:1)

Activity on Acreage Remains Robust with 88 Active Rigs Drilling Representing 17%¹ Market Share of U.S. Land Rig Count

Announces Q2 2025 Cash Distribution of $0.38 per Common Unit

FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Kimbell Royalty Partners, LP (NYSE:KRP) ("Kimbell" or the "Company"), a leading owner of oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests in over 131,000 gross wells across 28 states, today announced financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights

Q2 2025 run-rate daily production of 25,355 barrels of oil equivalent ("Boe") per day (6:1)
Q2 2025 oil, natural gas and NGL revenues of $74.7 million
Q2 2025 net income of approximately $26.7 million and net income attributable to common units of approximately $2.0 million
Q2 2025 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $63.8 million
Cash G&A per BOE of $2.36 in Q2 2025, below low-end of guidance reflecting operational discipline and positive operating leverage
As of June 30, 2025, Kimbell's major properties²had 7.99 net DUCs and net permitted locations on its acreage (5.10 net DUCs and 2.89 net permitted locations) compared to an estimated 6.5 net wells needed to maintain flat production
As of June 30, 2025, Kimbell had 88 rigs actively drilling on its acreage, representing approximately 17% market share of all land rigs drilling in the continental United States as of such time
Announced a Q2 2025 cash distribution of $0.38 per common unit, reflecting a payout ratio of 75% of cash available for distribution; implies a 10.3% annualized yield based on the August 6, 2025 closing price of $14.79 per common unit; Kimbell intends to utilize the remaining 25% of its cash available for distribution to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under Kimbell's secured revolving credit facility
Kimbell affirms its financial and operational guidance ranges for 2025 previously disclosed in its Q4 2024 earnings release

Robert Ravnaas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kimbell Royalty GP, LLC, Kimbell's general partner (the "General Partner"), commented, "Kimbell's active rig count remains strong with our market share of U.S. land rigs actively drilling increasing by 1% to 17%. In addition, while the overall U.S. land rig count dropped by 7% quarter over quarter as operators, primarily in the Permian, slowed drilling activity, our overall rig count dropped by only 2% to 88 rigs actively drilling on our acreage. Notably, our rig count in the Permian Basin increased by four rigs and Haynesville increased by five rigs while the Mid-Con experienced a decline in drilling activity. Furthermore, our line-of-site wells continue to be well above the number of wells needed to maintain flat production, giving us confidence in the resilience of our production as we progress through 2025. More specifically, net DUCs increased by 9% quarter over quarter, led by the Permian Basin, which bodes well for near-term production contributions from this region. Finally, cash G&A per BOE was well below the low end of guidance reflecting operational discipline and positive operating leverage.

"We are pleased to declare the Q2 2025 distribution of 38 cents per common unit, reflecting a 10.3% annualized tax advantaged yield based on Kimbell's closing price on August 6, 2025. We estimate that approximately 100% of this distribution is expected to be considered return of capital and not subject to dividend taxes, further enhancing the after-tax return to our common unitholders."

¹ Based on Kimbell rig count of 88 and Baker Hughes U.S. land rig count of 533 as of June 30, 2025.

² These figures pertain only to Kimbell's major properties and do not include possible additional DUCs and permits from Kimbell's minor properties, which generally have a net revenue interest of 0.1% or below and are time consuming to quantify but, in the estimation of Kimbell's management, could add an additional 15% to Kimbell's net inventory.

Second Quarter 2025 Distribution and Debt Repayment

Today, the Board of Directors of the General Partner (the "Board of Directors") approved a cash distribution payment to common unitholders of 75% of cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2025, or $0.38 per common unit. The distribution will be payable on August 25, 2025 to common unitholders of record at the close of business on August 18, 2025. Kimbell plans to utilize the remaining 25% of cash available for distribution for the second quarter of 2025 to pay down approximately $13.6 million of the outstanding borrowings under its secured revolving credit facility.

Kimbell expects that approximately 100% of its second quarter 2025 distribution should not constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes, but instead are estimated to constitute non-taxable reductions to the basis of each distribution recipient's ownership interest in Kimbell common units. The reduced tax basis will increase unitholders' capital gain (or decrease unitholders' capital loss) when unitholders sell their common units. The Form 8937 containing additional information may be found at www.kimbellrp.com under "Investor Relations" section of the site. Kimbell currently believes that the portion that constitutes dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be considered qualified dividends, subject to holding period and certain other conditions, which are subject to a tax rate of 0%, 15% or 20% depending on the income level and tax filing status of a unitholder for 2025. Kimbell believes these estimates are reasonable based on currently available information, but they are subject to change.

Financial Highlights

Kimbell's second quarter 2025 average realized price per Bbl of oil was $63.48, per Mcf of natural gas was $2.54, per Bbl of NGLs was $24.10 and per Boe combined was $33.04.

During the second quarter of 2025, the Company's total revenues were $86.5 million, net income was approximately $26.7 million and net income attributable to common units was approximately $2.0 million, or $0.02 per common unit.

Total second quarter 2025 consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was $63.8 million (consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please see a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measures at the end of this news release).

In the second quarter of 2025, G&A expense was $9.6 million, $5.4 million of which was Cash G&A expense, or $2.36 per BOE (Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are non-GAAP financial measures. Please see definition under Non-GAAP Financial Measures in the Supplemental Schedules included in this news release). Unit-based compensation in the second quarter of 2025, which is a non-cash G&A expense, was $4.1 million or $1.79 per Boe.

Supplemental Schedules

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Adjusted EBITDA, Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are used as supplemental non-GAAP financial measures by management and external users of Kimbell's financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies. Kimbell believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate Kimbell's operating performance and compare the results of Kimbell's operations period to period without regard to its financing methods or capital structure. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate cash flow available to pay distributions to Kimbell's unitholders. Kimbell defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), net of depreciation and depletion expense, interest expense, income taxes, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, non-cash unit-based compensation and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of net income (loss) or net cash provided by operating activities as determined by GAAP. Kimbell excludes the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within Kimbell's industry depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired. Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing a company's financial performance, such as a company's cost of capital and tax structure, as well as historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which are components of Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids revenues, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. Kimbell's computations of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Kimbell expects that cash available for distribution for each quarter will generally equal its Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter, less cash needed for debt service and other contractual obligations, tax obligations, and fixed charges and reserves for future operating or capital needs that the Board of Directors may determine is appropriate.

Kimbell believes Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe are useful metrics because they isolate cash costs within overall G&A expense and measure cash costs relative to overall production, which is a widely utilized metric to evaluate operational performance within the energy sector. Cash G&A is defined as general and administrative expenses less unit-based compensation expense. Cash G&A per Boe is defined as Cash G&A divided by total production for a period. Cash G&A should not be considered an alternative to G&A expense presented in accordance with GAAP. Kimbell's computations of Cash G&A and Cash G&A per Boe may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
