The Trustee, Argent Trust Company, said SoftVest and other holders of more than 15% of the units requested a special meeting of unitholders on November 23, 2026. The proposals include approving an amendment to the Trust Indenture to effect a Business Combination under a Combination Agreement, approving the PBT Land and Minerals, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan, and authorizing a possible adjournment. The vote would decide whether the proposed transaction proceeds, which would affect unitholders' holdings.
Special meeting requested for November 23, 2026, with a record date of October 13, 2026.
Proposals cover a Trust Indenture amendment to effect the Business Combination, the Omnibus Incentive Plan, and a possible adjournment.
Trustee intends to call the meeting under the Indenture; notice to be mailed beginning October 23, 2026.
Trustee is not a party to the Combination Agreement and is not making a voting recommendation.
The Trust declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.045191 per unit, totaling $2,106,330.04, payable November 16, 2026 to holders of record on October 30, 2026. The payment rose from the prior month mainly due to a final settlement payment from Blackbeard Operating, but it includes no Waddell Ranch proceeds because those properties remain in an excess cost position, and a proposed combination with Blackbeard Holdings still requires a unitholder vote.
Distribution of $0.045191 per unit, or $2,106,330.04 across 46,608,796 units, payable November 16, 2026 to holders of record October 30, 2026.
Increase from the prior month due primarily to the final settlement payment from Blackbeard Operating; higher Texas Royalty Properties gas volumes and pricing also contributed, partly offset by lower oil pricing.
Waddell Ranch production costs exceeded gross proceeds for September 2026, so no Waddell Ranch proceeds were included; all excess costs plus accrued interest must be recovered before future distributions.
SoftVest's combination agreement dated July 28, 2026 proposes creating PBT Land and Minerals, Inc.; completion requires a Trust unitholder vote, and the Trustee is not making a recommendation.
Permian Basin Royalty Trust declared a monthly cash distribution of $0.019593 per unit, payable October 15, 2026, to unitholders of record on September 30, 2026. The distribution excludes Waddell Ranch proceeds because production costs exceeded gross proceeds in August, leaving the Waddell Ranch properties in a continuing excess cost position that must be recovered before any future distributions. The distribution rose from the prior month mainly due to lower Trust expenses, and the filing notes a pending SoftVest-led proposal to combine Trust assets with Blackbeard Holdings' operations, which requires a unitholder vote.
Distribution of $0.019593 per unit, totaling $913,228.22 across 46,608,796 units outstanding, payable October 15, 2026.
Distribution increased from the previous month, mainly due to a decrease in Trust expenses, partly offset by lower oil and natural gas volumes and lower oil pricing.
Waddell Ranch production costs exceeded gross proceeds for August 2026; no Waddell Ranch proceeds were included in the September distribution.
Texas Royalty Properties net contribution was $1,130,007; oil averaged $83.20 per bbl versus $93.10 the prior month.
