We believe this dividend payment level is secure and sustainable with oil prices at approximately half their current levels. Magnolia expects to announce the remaining portion of its total annual dividend payment next February in conjunction with the release of our full-year 2021 financial results. The second portion of our annual dividend payment will be based on our 2021 results and our long-term view of product prices.
“Our dividend framework is aligned with the characteristics of our business model,” said Steve Chazen, Magnolia’s Chairman, President and CEO. “These principles include maintaining our low leverage, limiting our capital spending to allow for consistent and sizable free cash flow generation while providing moderate volume growth and strong pre-tax margins. Part of Magnolia’s total shareholder return proposition is to establish a differentiated approach toward paying a regular and sustainable dividend that will grow over time as we continue to execute our business plan.”
