The transaction, which closed in November, includes additional high-quality pore space adjacent to LandBridge's large contiguous acreage position in Loving County, expanding the Company's ability to meet rising demand for high-quality pore space for customers seeking produced water handling resources. The acquisition also enables potential future surface use for alternative energy developments, emphasizing LandBridge's focus on diversifying revenue streams to optimize the commercial and strategic value of its acreage position.
• Finalized the sale of a 3,000-acre solar energy generation project in Reeves County, Texas to a leading, publicly-traded energy infrastructure developer. In connection with the transaction, LandBridge received an up-front cash payment and the right to receive contingent future cash payments based on the achievement of certain developmental milestones. The solar project has a proposed generation capacity of up to 250 MW.
• Entered into a long-term lease with a subsidiary of ONEOK Inc. for a natural gas processing facility in Loving County, Texas.
• Dual listed on NYSE Texas as a founding member, underscoring LandBridge's commitment to Texas's thriving economy and energy industry.

Jason Long, Chief Executive Officer of LandBridge, stated, "As we advance our business plan and trajectory, we have shifted the paradigm of active land ownership with a strategy that maximizes the value of over 300,000 optimally located and largely contiguous surface acres. We have already established partnerships with industry-leading operators and developers that provide reliable and diverse revenue streams, and have only scratched the surface in terms of the many compelling opportunities we are evaluating. LandBridge provides our business partners with unparalleled access to expansive surface acreage for conventional and alternative energy development, digital infrastructure build-out, power storage, waste management, and many other commercial uses."

Scott McNeely, Chief Financial Officer of LandBridge, said, "LandBridge delivered its sixth consecutive public quarter of strong growth, driven by increases across all key revenue streams and underpinned by a high-margin, highly capital-efficient and asset-light business model. In addition, we have further diversified our revenue portfolio with the recent 1918 acquisition, which will provide our customers with increased access to pore space and surface acreage well-suited to alternative energy development. Finally, the successful sale of the Reeves County solar project further demonstrates the potential for alternative energy development on our acreage. I'm excited for our team to continue executing on disciplined growth opportunities and acquisitions that maximize the value of our surface land asset for the benefit of all our stakeholders."

Outlook

Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures are not available due to the challenges and impracticability of estimating certain items, particularly non-recurring gains or losses, unusual or non-recurring items, income tax benefit or expense, or one-time transaction costs and cost of revenue. We are unable to reasonably predict these because they are uncertain and depend on various factors not yet known, which could have a material impact on GAAP results for the guidance period. Because of those challenges, a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is not available without unreasonable effort.

Our financial statements and related footnotes are available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on November 12, 2025.

THIRD QUARTER 2025 RESULTS

Comparison of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are supplemental non-GAAP measures that we use to evaluate current, past and expected future performance. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and cash flows, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, gross margin or any other measures presented under GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are used to assess the financial performance of our assets over the long term to generate sufficient cash to return capital to equity holders or service indebtedness. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest; taxes; depreciation, amortization, depletion and accretion; share-based compensation; non-recurring transaction-related expenses and other non-cash or non-recurring expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful because they allow us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period, and against our peers, without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the periods indicated.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are used to assess our ability to repay our indebtedness, return capital to our shareholders and fund potential acquisitions without access to external sources of financing for such purposes. We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow from operating activities less investment in capital expenditures. We define Free Cash Flow Margin as Free Cash Flow divided by total revenues.

We believe Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are useful because they allow for an effective evaluation of both our operating and financial performance, as well as the capital intensity of our business, and subsequently the ability of our operations to generate cash flow that is available to distribute to our shareholders, reduce leverage or support acquisition activities.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP to Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin, respectively, for the periods indicated.
