Consolidated revenues in fourth quarter 2025 were approx $212 million, consolidated adjusted EBITDA was $178 million, adjusted EBITDA margin 84%, free cash flow $119 million. Full year 2025 generated record free cash flow of approx $498 million, 8% y-o-y increase. Full year performance benefited from higher daily oil and gas royalty production (29% y-o-y increase), higher water sales daily volumes (4% increase) and higher produced water royalty daily volumes (25% increase).
Guidance
• Anticipate capital expenditures for 2026 to be approximately $65 million to $75 million, with $20 million allocated towards waste heat capture and data center and power generation co-location potential for freeze desalination facility, remaining balance for water sales business for electrification, equipment and supply improvement and maintenance. • Believes Permian still has ample DUC inventory to drive completion pacing to support production via continued discretionary DUC draws with at least a year or more of runway before industry would need to begin adding rigs. • Focused on maximizing long-term intrinsic value per share, with resilient business and pristine balance sheet.
Q&A highlights
Q: Congrats on strong financial and operational update, thoughts on opportunity set for power and data center development for TPL beyond Bolt?
A: Opportunity set has evolved, have a few projects working on, some Bolt related, some not, long-term goal is to build multiple multi-gig energy campuses, commercial negotiations ongoing.
Q: Thoughts on reasonable numbers for water revenue with Bolt's ambition of 10-gigawatt data center campus?
A: Varies with facility design, but with certain designs numbers are reasonable, usage depends on facility design, used to moving a lot of water, opportunity substantial.
Q: Thoughts on desalination process efficiencies and power intensity?
A: Overall goal in water desal is to reduce energy consumption, waste heat capture is a way to bring kilowatt per hour per barrel treated down, waste heat is almost free energy.
Q: Exposure to rare earths activity in Hudspeth County?
A: Have a couple of exploration projects going on, early stages, finding seem promising so far.
Q: Color on ROFR to supply water for Bolt partnership, how done?
A: Likely a combination of source water network, treated desal water, depends on facility design.
Q: Capacity to ramp treated water for scaling up data centers?
A: Never going to have feedstock shortage of water usage, but need to look at eventual water needs and economic return for capital investment.
Q: Updates on Bolt agreement, commercial partnerships and revenue timing?
A: Eric Schmidt's goal is to get to 1 gig swiftly with 10-gig campus ultimate goal, conversations progressing swiftly, hope to announce stuff this year or first half of year.
