Mesa Royalty Trust to pay no September 2026 distribution as costs exceed revenue
Mesa Royalty Trust announced that no distribution will be paid for September 2026 because costs, charges and expenses tied to its royalty properties exceeded the revenue received from hydrocarbon sales, as reported by the working interest owners. The filing also states that distributions are expected to be materially reduced until the Trust builds cash reserves to $2.0 million, and that accumulated excess production costs may result in no distributions in some periods.
