Texas Pacific Land Set to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Texas Pacific Land's Q3 earnings are expected to rise 33.5% year over year on 30% revenue growth.
Record royalty production and rising produced water disposal demand likely supported TPL's Q3 performance.
Weak Delaware Basin drilling activity and lower water sales volumes could have weighed on TPL's Q3 results.
Texas Pacific Land Corporation (TPL - Free Report) is set to release third-quarter 2026 results on Nov. 4, after market close. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is $2.35 per share on revenues of $264 million.
Let’s delve into the factors that might have influenced the Permian Basin landowner’s results for the September quarter. But it’s worth taking a look at TPL’s previous-quarter performance first.
Highlights of Previous Quarter Earnings & Surprise History
In the last reported quarter, the company, which generates its revenues primarily from oil and natural gas royalties, beat the consensus mark on strong royalty production and water sales. Texas Pacific Land reported net income per share of $2.23, topping the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.14. Revenues of $246.1 million beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.3%.
TPL beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the last four quarters. This is depicted in the graph below:
Texas Pacific Land Corporation Price and EPS Surprise
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the third-quarter bottom line has remained unchanged in the past seven days. The estimated figure indicates a 33.5% increase year over year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues, meanwhile, suggests a 30% improvement from the year-ago period.
Factors to Consider
Texas Pacific Land's oil and gas royalty business likely benefited from sustained production growth in the third quarter of 2026. Royalty production reached a record 39,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day in the second quarter, increasing 20% year over year and 7% sequentially. Additionally, its inventory of 18.4 net wells awaiting production, including 9.5 drilled-but-uncompleted wells, provided visibility into future output. Continued well completions and contributions from acquired royalty assets could support production volumes, strengthening royalty revenues and earnings for the quarter.
Growing demand for produced water transportation and disposal services will likely back TPL's third-quarter 2026 performance. Produced water royalty volumes reached approximately 4.9 million barrels per day in the second quarter, rising 15% year over year and 6% sequentially. This drove royalty revenues to $37.1 million compared with $33.5 million in the preceding quarter. Higher water production from existing wells, increased demand for disposal capacity and contractual price escalators could have lifted royalty collections. Moreover, this business generates high-margin revenues without requiring significant direct operating or capital expenditures.
On a bearish note, reduced drilling and completion activity in the Delaware Basin could weigh on Texas Pacific Land’s third-quarter 2026 water sales revenues. During the second quarter, water sales volumes declined 19% sequentially to 663,000 barrels per day, while revenues fell to $39.7 million from $46.9 million. Weak regional natural gas prices prompted operators to shift development away from the Delaware Basin, affecting water demand. Although management anticipated improving gas price differentials as additional pipeline capacity entered service over subsequent quarters, the timing of this recovery remained uncertain, potentially limiting near-term earnings growth.
