SandRidge Mississippian Trust I (SDTTU) generated a series of material announcements as it transitioned from an operating royalty trust to an entity in wind-down. News coverage for the trust focuses on its quarterly distributions, the mandated dissolution and winding up process under its trust agreement, the sale of its royalty interests, and the resolution of securities litigation involving the trust.
Earlier news releases detailed quarterly distribution amounts and explained how production volumes and prices for oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids affected distributable income. As cash available for distribution over a four-quarter period fell below the threshold specified in the trust agreement, the trust announced that it was required to dissolve and begin winding up, and that its assets would be marketed and sold with the net proceeds ultimately distributed to unitholders.
Subsequent updates described the completion of the sale of all overriding royalty interests to a subsidiary of SandRidge Energy, Inc., the resulting end of regular production-based distributions, and the establishment of cash reserves to cover expenses and potential liabilities. A significant stream of news relates to the securities litigation styled Duane & Virginia Lanier Trust v. SandRidge Mississippian Trust I, including the court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the trust and the conclusion of that litigation when no appeal or post-judgment motion was filed by the court’s deadline.
More recent releases address the final distribution to trust unitholders, which reflects the release of net asset sale proceeds and remaining cash reserves, and the plan to remove the trust units from trading and cancel them after that payment. Investors and researchers can use this news history to follow the trust’s path from active distributions through asset sale, litigation resolution and final wind-up.
