units of beneficial interest financial
"declared a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial interest"
Units of beneficial interest are pieces of ownership in a trust, fund, or pooled investment that give the holder a right to a share of the assets and income without holding the underlying property directly. Think of them as slices of a pie that entitle you to future slices of profit or distributions; investors care because these units determine how returns, risks, voting rights, and tax treatment are allocated and how easily you can buy or sell your stake.
Net to Trust Sales financial
"The table below compares this month’s production and prices to the previous month’s Net to Trust Sales"
forward-looking statements regulatory
"constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 regulatory
"within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995"
Mcf financial
"Preliminary production volumes are approximately 72,119 barrels of oil and 1,408,574 Mcf of gas"
Mcf stands for thousand cubic feet and is a standard unit used to measure natural gas volume. For investors, Mcf translates physical gas production or consumption into a metric that directly affects revenue and valuation—think of it as counting liters of fuel your car used, where higher Mcf usually means more product to sell or higher costs to buy, and changes can signal shifts in supply, demand, or profitability.

SABINE ROYALTY TRUST ANNOUNCES

MONTHLY CASH DISTRIBUTION FOR JULY 2026

Dallas, Texas, August 7, 2026 – Argent Trust Company, as Trustee of the Sabine Royalty Trust (NYSE: SBR), today declared a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial interest of $0.619430 per unit, payable on August 31, 2026, to unit holders of record on August 17, 2026. Sabine’s cash distribution history, current and prior year financial reports and tax information booklets, a link to filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission and more can be found on its website at http://www.sbr-sabine.com/. Additionally, printed reports can be requested and are mailed free of charge.

This distribution reflects primarily the oil production for May 2026 and the gas production for April 2026, which is considered current production. Preliminary production volumes are approximately 72,119 barrels of oil and 1,408,574 Mcf of gas. Preliminary prices are approximately $98.43 per barrel of oil and $2.21 per Mcf of gas.

This month’s distribution is higher than the previous month’s primarily due to an increase in oil and natural gas production along with higher oil pricing, slightly offset by lower natural gas pricing.

The table below compares this month’s production and prices to the previous month’s:

(a)
Sales volumes are recorded in the month the Trust receives and identifies the related royalty income. Because of this, sales volumes and pricing may fluctuate from month to month based on the timing of cash receipts.

Revenues are only distributed after they are received, verified, and posted. Most energy companies normally issue payment of royalties on or about the 25th of every month, and depending on mail delivery, a varying amount of royalties are not received until after the revenue posting on the last business day of the month. The revenues received after that date will be posted within 30 days of receipt.

Due to the timing of the end of the month of July, approximately $569,000 of revenue received will be posted in the following month of August in addition to normal cash receipts received during August. Since the close of business in July and prior to this press release, approximately $2,017,000 in revenue has been received.

The 2025 Annual Report with Form 10-K and the December 31, 2025, Reserve Summary are available on the Sabine website at http://www.sbr-sabine.com/.
