DALLAS, Dec. 5, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- 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 $0.311170 per unit, payable on December 30, 2024, to unit holders of record on
December 16, 2024. 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, which has recently been updated with a new look, 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
September 2024 and the gas production
for August 2024, which is considered
current production. Preliminary production volumes are
approximately 68,183 barrels of oil and 1,536,640 Mcf of gas.
Preliminary prices are approximately $71.76 per barrel of oil and $1.39 per Mcf of gas.
This month's distribution is lower than the previous month's
primarily due to a decrease in oil and gas production, as well as a
decrease in the pricing of both oil and natural gas.
The table below compares this month's production and prices to
the previous month's:

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 November,
approximately $1,526,000 of revenue
received will be posted in the following month of December, in
addition to normal cash receipts received during December. Since
the close of business in November and prior to this press release,
approximately $290,000 in revenue has
been received.
Approximately $1,624,000 for 2024
Ad Valorem taxes was deducted from this month's distribution as
compared to $990,000 this time last
year. The trustee has been advised that some of the tax renditions
have been delayed somewhat this year, so the amounts to be deducted
in the January 2025 and February 2025 distributions may be different
relative to the same time periods last year. Ad Valorem tax
payments are normal expenditures at this time of year.
The 2023 Annual Report with Form 10-K and the January 1, 2024 Reserve Summary are available on
