Monthly Cash Distribution by PermRock Royalty Trust
PermRock Royalty Trust, listed on the NYSE under the symbol PRT, has officially announced its latest cash distribution for holders of Trust Units, set to be effective as of October 31, 2025, and payable on November 17, 2025. This decision reflects the Trust's ongoing strategy to provide value to its unit holders through consistent distributions based on its operational performance.
In total, the Trust has declared a cash distribution amounting to $384,018.36, equating to approximately $0.031565 per Trust Unit. This distribution is primarily influenced by oil and natural gas production metrics from August 2025, with significant insights into sales volumes and market prices contributing to these figures.
Breakdown of Current and Previous Month's Performance
A detailed examination of production metrics reveals a total of 22,490 barrels of oil sold during the current month, alongside a natural gas volume of 25,914 Mcf. This compares to last month's total sales of 20,993 barrels of oil and 15,784 Mcf of natural gas. The price per barrel of oil for this month stood at $58.06, which represents a decrease from the previous month's average price of $65.79. Meanwhile, natural gas sold at $2.31 per Mcf, down from $3.94 last month.
Despite the increase in oil sales volumes, overall cash receipts for oil amounted to $1.31 million, showing a slight decrease of $0.07 million compared to previous performance. The natural gas cash receipts remained relatively stable at $0.06 million, indicating that the increased sales volume helped mitigate the impact of falling market prices.
The Trust also reported a rise in total direct operating expenses, which reached $0.61 million, an increase attributed to various workover projects and a new chemical treatment program implemented during the month. Severance and ad valorem taxes included in the net profits calculations were $0.14 million, while capital expenditures for the production month were registered at $0.04 million.
