Revenue Insights
The reported cash receipts from oil sales at the properties governed by the Trust amounted to
$1.52 million, indicating a
$0.23 million decline compared to the previous month. This reduction largely stems from both a drop in oil sales prices and volumes. Conversely, cash receipts from natural gas remained relatively stable around
$0.07 million.
Operating and Capital Expenses
The total direct operating expenses exhibited a noteworthy increase, summing up to
$0.97 million, which is a significant rise of
$0.38 million from the previous month. This quick spike indicates heightened marketing, lease operating, and workover expenses. Furthermore, the severance and ad valorem taxes included in this month's net profits calculation were about
$0.10 million.
In terms of capital expenditures, they reached
$0.05 million, which represents a decrease of
$0.06 million in comparison to the prior month's figures. According to Boaz Energy, this downtrend was mainly linked to the conclusion of some recompletion projects at two wells located in the Permian Abo area.
Key Adjustments and Fiscal Health
A noteworthy inclusion for this month’s net profits calculation was the application of
$208,000, funds previously reserved by Boaz Energy intended for future capital obligations and expenses. This adjustment reflects a prudent financial maneuver to ensure fiscal health and sustainability within the trust.
