Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Permianville Royalty Trust announced a monthly cash distribution of $0.015000 per unit, payable on August 14, 2026 to unitholders of record on July 31, 2026. The payout is based on net profits from reported April 2026 oil production and March 2026 natural gas production, including accrued May 2026 costs.

For the current calculation period, underlying oil sales volumes were 33,265 Bbls at an average received wellhead price of $95.55 per Bbl, and natural gas volumes were 560,369 Mcf at $2.65 per Mcf. Total accrued operating expenses were $2.5 million and capital expenditures were $1.0 million. The Sponsor withheld an additional $0.2 million from current net profits to increase the development cash reserve to $2.0 million, primarily to support three newly drilled Haynesville wells, with remaining capital spending and first sales expected in coming months.

Filing Explained

The $2.0 million reserve remains withheld for development; unspent amounts may become a future incremental distribution.

Permianville Royalty Trust reports that drilling of the three incremental Haynesville wells has recently been completed, but remaining capital spending and conversion to first sales are still expected in the coming months. The $2.0 million development reserve is therefore still withheld from current net profits rather than distributed immediately.

The reserve is intended to fund approved future development expenses. If those expenses are delayed, lower than expected, or the outlook changes, reserved but unspent amounts are to be released as an incremental cash distribution in a future period.

Compared with the prior month, oil cash receipts increased to $3.2 million while natural-gas receipts decreased to $1.5 million; accrued operating expenses rose to $2.5 million, and capital expenditures fell to $1.0 million.

The filing identifies the coming months’ remaining capital expenditures and first sales as the next milestones for resolving how much of the reserve is ultimately spent or released.

Development cash reserve $2.0 million Reserve balance after an additional $0.2 million withheld from current net profits
net profits interest financial
"formed to own a net profits interest representing the right to receive 80% of the net profits"
A net profits interest (NPI) is a contractual right to receive a fixed percentage of a project’s or asset’s profits after allowable costs are paid, rather than a share of gross revenue or ownership. For investors, it matters because it gives upside tied to actual profitability while shielding the holder from direct operating expenses and capital calls, similar to getting a portion of the leftover profits from a business after the bills are settled.
Underlying Properties financial
"oil and gas properties underlying the Trust (the "Underlying Properties") totaled $3.2 million"
Underlying properties are the real assets or core characteristics that determine the value and behavior of a financial instrument or investment—like the actual stock, bond, commodity, or physical real estate backing a security, or the legal and physical traits of a property. They matter to investors because these fundamentals drive returns, risks, liquidity and legal rights; understanding them is like checking an engine and tires before trusting a car for a long trip.
capital expenditures financial
"Total accrued operating expenses increased $0.4 million from the prior month at $2.5 million, and capital expenditures decreased $0.5 million"
Capital expenditures are the money a company spends to buy or improve big assets like buildings, equipment, or machines that will last a long time. These investments matter because they help the company grow and operate more efficiently, similar to how upgrading a home’s appliances or adding a new room can make it better and more valuable.
cash reserve financial
"has established a cash reserve for approved, future development expenses, primarily associated with the planned drilling"
Cash reserve is the amount of readily available cash a company keeps on hand to pay bills, handle unexpected costs, or seize quick opportunities—like an emergency fund for a household. For investors, a healthy cash reserve signals that a business can weather downturns, fund short-term needs without borrowing, and maintain flexibility for investments or dividends; too much idle cash, however, may suggest missed growth opportunities.
Haynesville wells technical
"planned drilling of three incremental Haynesville wells by an operator on the Underlying Properties"
Haynesville wells are natural gas wells drilled into the Haynesville Shale, a deep underground rock formation in the U.S. known for high-volume gas production. For investors, these wells matter because their output, cost to drill and maintain, and the size of recoverable gas affect an energy producer’s revenue and regional gas supply, similar to how yields from a particular orchard determine a farmer’s income and local market prices.

Permianville Royalty Trust Announces Monthly Cash Distribution

 

HOUSTON, Texas—(BUSINESS WIRE)—July 17, 2026

 

Permianville Royalty Trust (NYSE: PVL, the “Trust”) today announced a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial interest of $0.015000 per unit, payable on August 14, 2026, to unitholders of record on July 31, 2026. The net profits interest calculation represents reported oil production for the month of April 2026 and reported natural gas production during March 2026. The calculation includes accrued costs incurred in May 2026.

 

The following table displays reported underlying oil and natural gas sales volumes and average received wellhead prices attributable to the current and prior month recorded net profits interest calculations.

 

   Underlying Sales Volumes   Average Price 
   Oil   Natural Gas   Oil   Natural Gas 
   Bbls   Bbls/D   Mcf   Mcf/D   (per Bbl)   (per Mcf) 
Current Month   33,265    1,109    560,369    18,076   $95.55   $2.65 
Prior Month   31,005    1,000    548,911    18,297   $82.93   $4.74 

 

Recorded oil cash receipts from the oil and gas properties underlying the Trust (the “Underlying Properties”) totaled $3.2 million for the current month on realized wellhead prices of $95.55/Bbl, up $0.6 million from the prior month’s oil cash receipts.

 

Recorded natural gas cash receipts from the Underlying Properties totaled $1.5 million for the current month on realized wellhead prices of $2.65/Mcf, down $1.1 million from the prior month.

 

Total accrued operating expenses increased $0.4 million from the prior month to $2.5 million, and capital expenditures decreased $0.5 million from the prior month at $1.0 million.

 

As previously disclosed, COERT Holdings 1 LLC (the “Sponsor”) has established a cash reserve for approved, future development expenses, primarily associated with the planned drilling of three incremental Haynesville wells by an operator on the Underlying Properties. Given the increase in expected spending, the Sponsor has notified the Trustee that it is withholding an additional $0.2 million from the current month’s net profits to be added to this cash reserve, increasing the reserve to a total of $2.0 million. The Sponsor indicates that the drilling associated with the three Haynesville wells was recently completed, and the Sponsor expects the remaining capital expenditures and conversion to first sales to occur in the coming months. As previously disclosed, this reserve is intended to fund an expected increase in billed development expenses; however, if those expenses are ultimately delayed or are less than expected, or if the outlook changes, amounts reserved but unspent will be released as an incremental cash distribution in a future period.

 

 

About Permianville Royalty Trust

Forward-Looking Statements and Cautionary Statements

 

This press release contains statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements contained in this press release, other than statements of historical facts, are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of these provisions. These forward-looking statements include the amount and date of any anticipated distribution to unitholders, expectations regarding future development on the Underlying Properties and expectations regarding the newly drilled wells in the Haynesville region, including the timing of remaining capital expenditures and conversion to first sales. The anticipated distribution is based, in large part, on the amount of cash received or expected to be received by the Trust from the Sponsor with respect to the relevant period. The amount of such cash received or expected to be received by the Trust (and its ability to pay distributions) has been and will continue to be directly affected by the volatility in commodity prices, which can fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors that are beyond the control of the Trust and the Sponsor. Low oil and natural gas prices will reduce profits to which the Trust is entitled, which will reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders and in certain periods could result in no distributions to unitholders. Other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include expenses of the Trust and reserves for anticipated future expenses. Initial production rates may not be indicative of future production rates and are not indicative of the amounts of oil and gas that a well may produce. In addition, future monthly capital expenditures may exceed the average levels experienced in 2025 and prior periods, which could reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to unitholders and in certain periods could result in no distributions to unitholders. Statements made in this press release are qualified by the cautionary statements made in this press release. Neither the Sponsor nor the Trustee intends, and neither assumes any obligation, to update any of the statements included in this press release. An investment in units issued by the Trust is subject to the risks described in the Trust’s filings with the SEC, including the risks described in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 23, 2026. The Trust’s quarterly and other filed reports are or will be available over the Internet at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
