Key Terms

abs warehouse facility financial
An ABS warehouse facility is a short-term credit line that lets a lender or loan originator buy and hold a bundle of loans, leases or receivables until they are packaged and sold as asset‑backed securities. Think of it like a temporary storage and financing arrangement that lets a seller assemble inventory before a big sale; it matters to investors because it affects when and how loans are transferred to investors, the timing of cash flows, and the short‑term credit and operational risk behind upcoming securitizations.
proved developed producing technical
Proved developed producing (PDP) describes oil or gas reserves that are confirmed, already connected to production equipment, and actively yielding hydrocarbons. For investors, PDP is like money already in a company's cash register: it represents low-risk, near-term revenue because the wells are drilled, hooked up, and producing, so future income and cash flow estimates based on PDP are more reliable than projections for undeveloped or unproven reserves.
pv-10 financial
PV-10 is a valuation metric that estimates the present value of future oil and gas production cash flows, discounted at 10% and stated before income taxes. Think of it as the current price tag on a company’s proven reserves, calculated by shrinking future revenue streams to today’s dollars using a 10% rate. Investors use PV-10 to compare the relative worth of reserves and assess how much future production could contribute to a company’s value, much like comparing the upfront price of different rental properties based on expected future rent.
natural gas basis swaps financial
A natural gas basis swap is a financial contract that locks in the price difference between two regional gas markets (for example between a national benchmark and a local delivery point) rather than the absolute gas price. For investors and companies that buy, sell or transport gas, it works like agreeing in advance on the fare difference between two train stations — protecting margins and cash flow from regional price swings even when overall gas prices move up or down.
oil swaps financial
Oil swaps are private contracts that let two parties exchange the difference between a fixed price and the actual market price of crude oil, settled in cash rather than swapping physical barrels. Think of it like locking in a sale or purchase price today to avoid being surprised by future price swings; that matters to investors because companies and traders use swaps to protect profit margins, manage cash-flow risk, and signal market expectations about future oil prices.
ngl swaps financial
NGL swaps are financial contracts that let buyers and sellers lock in a future price for natural gas liquids (like propane, butane and ethane) without moving the physical product. They work like a farmer agreeing today on a sale price for next season’s crop: if market prices move, the swap offsets gains or losses. Investors care because swaps stabilize cash flow and profits for producers, processors and traders, and changes in swap positions can signal expected future prices and risk exposure.

Expected dividend increase to $1.50 per share

FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Presidio Production Company (NYSE: FTW) (“Presidio” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of its acquisition of the Canyon Creek assets (the “Transaction”) from companies controlled by Vortus Investments and additional sellers (the “Sellers”). The closing marks the first use of the Company's ABS Warehouse Facility of up to $1.0 billion, led by Goldman Sachs.

The Transaction is Presidio's second acquisition as a public company and its first in the Arkoma Basin. It establishes a platform for future consolidation under the Company's land-and-expand strategy. The Company believes the Transaction will support an increase to its anticipated annualized dividend rate from $1.35 to $1.50 per share, subject to approval by the Board of Directors.

"This is the second of many expected acquisitions, a low-decline, cash-flowing asset that fits the Company's criteria perfectly. We look forward to increasing the dividend while realizing strong returns as we take over the asset. We are also pleased to welcome Citizens, our RBL lender, into our ABS Warehouse Facility in conjunction with our first funding,” said Will Ulrich, Chairman and Co-CEO of Presidio.

Chris Hammack, Co-CEO and Director of Presidio, continued, “This transaction establishes our entry into the Arkoma Basin, where we see a compelling opportunity to build scale through consolidation using the same land-and-expand strategy we've successfully executed in the Western Anadarko. We believe these assets are an excellent fit for Presidio's operating model, and we intend to deploy our proven playbook of disciplined execution, AI-enabled analytics, and operational excellence to drive lower costs, optimize production, improve well-level margins, and maximize long-term value for our shareholders."

Acquisition Highlights

  • Purchase price of approximately $83 million
  • Strategic entry into the Arkoma Basin
  • Net PDP production of approximately 21 MMcfe/d as of May 2026, from 55 producing wells (70% natural gas, 30% NGLs), with an 11% annual decline
  • Estimated Proved Developed Producing PV-10 of approximately $100 million
  • Estimated Net Proved Developed Producing Reserves of approximately 100 Bcfe
  • Expected year-one free cash flow yield in excess of 20%
  • Expected levered returns in excess of 20%

ABS Financing

The Transaction was funded through the Company's first draw of $55 million under its ABS Warehouse Facility, led by Goldman Sachs. Citizens Bank, N.A., the Company's RBL lender, joined the facility with a 40% participation, broadening the lender base and enhancing the facility's capacity to scale for future acquisitions.

Issuance of Shares

In connection with the Transaction, the Company issued 1,962,240 new shares of Class A common stock to the Sellers.
