Kimbell Royalty Partners: 10% Yielder, But I'd Rather Own These Instead
Summary Kimbell Royalty Partners offers a diversified asset base, high yield over 10%, and a 1099-DIV structure attractive for retirement accounts. KRP's balance sheet is riskier than peers, with a 57% debt-to-equity ratio and significant recent insider selling, raising concerns about downside protection. Relative valuation shows KRP trades at 25x earnings and 8x EV/EBITDA, with the market discounting for its leverage compared to Black Stone Minerals (BSM) and Dorchester Minerals (DMLP). I rate KRP as HOLD; BSM is preferred for risk-adjusted value, and DMLP for balance sheet strength and full commodity upside. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Kimbell Royalty's Distribution Can Be The Key To Your Income-Focused Portfolio
Summary Kimbell Royalty Partners focuses on acquiring mineral rights and royalty interests, boasting a portfolio of 17 million gross acres and 130,000 wells. The company’s strategy includes aggressive acquisitions and dilution, growing equity value from $262.1 million in 2017 to $863.5 million now. Despite high valuation metrics, Kimbell excels in free cash flow generation and offers a substantial 13.8% dividend yield, appealing to income-focused investors.

Kimbell Royalty Partners: High-Quality Business Model And Solid Balance Sheet Justify A Buy
Summary Kimbell Royalty Partners maintains strong top line performance and liquidity despite volatile oil and gas markets, driven by strategic acquisitions and a non-capital-intensive business model. KRP's high liquidity and low operating costs, combined with stable cash flows, support its ability to cover acquisitions and distributions, making it a secure investment. The company’s current undervaluation presents upside potential, with price targets suggesting a 22-35% increase, despite weak technical momentum. Economic recovery and stabilized inflation are expected to boost demand for energy commodities, enhancing KRP's royalty generation in the long run.

Kimbell Royalty Partners: A Premium Long-Term Investment With A Massive Dividend Yield
Summary Kimbell Royalty presents an attractive medium- to long-term investment opportunity, offering a strong dividend yield backed by solid financials. The company's low debt levels and tax-efficient structure make it particularly appealing to investors seeking higher yields with relative stability. Its recent acquisition of Midland Basin interests is expected to enhance production and strengthen its financial position without disrupting cash flows.

Kimbell Royalty Partners: Midland Basin Acquisition May Boost Oil Production By 15%
Summary Kimbell is acquiring Midland Basin royalty interests for $231 million. The seller is getting paid mostly with cash, but KRP is also issuing shares via a public offering to limit the increase in its debt. I currently expect the Company to add approximately 12.9 million common units and $44 million in net debt due to the acquisition. The additional units result in Kimbell's projected 2025 distributable cash flow being close to unchanged at $2.28 per unit. KRP's total production should increase by 8% as a result of the acquisition, while its oil production may increase by 15%. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Nov 29
Kimbell Royalty Partners: New Permian Wells Should Boost Production And Oil Cut
Summary Kimbell's Q3 2024 production and oil cut modestly declined compared to Q2 2024. KRP still declared a $0.41 per unit distribution, helped by hedges and lease bonus income. Kimbell had a high number of DUCs at the end of Q3 2024. Those wells coming online are expected to boost its production in Q4 2024 and much of 2025. Kimbell's net permitted locations are relatively low though (with the conversion to DUCs). The number of permits will need to be boosted to ensure production remains robust later on. Kimbell has delayed its redemption of preferred units to May 2025 since that saves it a couple million dollars. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

9% Yield At $70 WTI - The Power Of Kimbell Royalty Partners
Summary Kimbell Royalty Partners offers a compelling high yield, benefiting from rising oil and gas prices without production costs, making it an attractive income investment. KRP's diversified portfolio spans over 129,000 wells across major U.S. oil and gas basins, ensuring stable output even in challenging environments. The company's strong balance sheet, low leverage, and plans to redeem preferred units position it well for potential increased distribution payouts. While distributions are variable and dependent on energy prices, KRP's income potential remains near-unbeatable, especially if oil prices rebound.

Kimbell Royalty Partners: The Case Of Sound 10%+ Yield Remains Intact
Summary On a YTD basis, Kimbell Royalty Partners has delivered total returns of ~15% from which the price appreciation component explains only 5%. However, during this time, including based on the recently circulated Q2 earnings, the business has grown faster and the leverage has continued to tick lower. The projected EBITDA generation indicates a positive trajectory, rendering the case very attractive. In this article I explain in detail why I remain bullish on KRP after the release of its Q2, 2024 earnings deck. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Jun 23

Kimbell Royalty Partners: 2024 Production Guidance May Be Conservative
Summary Kimbell is projected to generate $2.38 per unit in distributable 2024 cash flow at the current strip. At a 75% payout ratio, this translates into a $0.44 to $0.45 per unit quarterly distribution. Kimbell's production guidance midpoint was slightly below my expectations. However, its guidance also appears to be somewhat conservative based on its number of line-of-sight wells. I thus believe that Kimbell's production will trend towards the upper end of its guidance.
