•
Acquired approximately 5,700 acres year-to-date through a number of strategic bolt-on acquisitions, bringing total surface acreage owned or managed to more than 320,000 acres(3). Transactions add to LandBridge’s contiguous acreage position, increasing the

Management Commentary
Jason Long, Chief Executive Officer of LandBridge, said, “We’re pleased to have delivered first quarter results that reflect strong year-over-year growth and solid commercial momentum heading into the second quarter, with second-half growth drivers on track. Since the beginning of the year, we have been able to close several bolt-on acquisitions that further enhance the scale and contiguity of our acreage position, and our recent agreement with PowerBridge for the Alpha Digital Campus further demonstrates the strength of commercial demand across our acreage. Our active land management strategy continues to attract high-value commercial opportunities, driving durable and high-margin growth, and providing us with the confidence to raise our full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance range."
Scott McNeely, Chief Financial Officer of LandBridge, said, “LandBridge’s capital efficient, asset-light model delivered strong cash generation in the first quarter, allowing us to invest in bolt-on transactions while reducing outstanding indebtedness. As normal seasonality of commercial agreements and resource sales continue to accelerate into the second quarter, we are confident in our healthy and expanding commercial pipeline, which has driven our decision to raise our full-year Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $210 to $230 million. LandBridge is well positioned to drive continued financial growth, margin strength and shareholder value creation in 2026."
First Quarter 2026 Consolidated Financial Information
Revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $51.0 million as compared to $56.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $44.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. The sequential decrease was attributable to decreases of $2.3 million in surface use royalties and revenues, $1.1 million in resource sales and royalties, $0.2 million in oil and gas royalties and $2.2 million in other revenue following a robust fourth quarter 2025. Net income for the first quarter of 2026 was $17.9 million as compared to $18.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $15.5 million in the first quarter of 2025.(1)
Adjusted EBITDA was $44.9 million in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to $51.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $38.8 million in the first quarter of 2025. (2)
Net income margin was 35% in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to 32% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 35% in the first quarter of 2025.(1) Adjusted EBITDA margin was 88% in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to 90% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 88% in the first quarter of 2025.(2)

Diversified Revenue Streams
Surface Use Royalties and Revenue: Generated revenues of $37.0 million in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to $39.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $26.2 million in the first quarter of 2025. Surface Use Royalties and Revenue decreased 6% sequentially, primarily driven by a decrease in surface income related to damages and easement payments, partially offset by an increase in produced water volumes and related royalties in the quarter.
Resource Sales and Royalties: Generated revenues of $11.0 million in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to $12.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $14.4 million in the first quarter of 2025. Revenue from Resource Sales and Royalties decreased 9% sequentially, primarily driven by decreases in activity-driven water sales and royalty volumes in the beginning of the quarter.
Oil and Gas Royalties: Generated revenues of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to $3.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2025. Revenue from Oil and Gas Royalties decreased 5% sequentially, primarily driven by net royalty production decreasing from 979 boe/d in the fourth quarter of 2025 to 815 boe/d in the first quarter of 2026.
Free Cash Flow Generation
Cash flow from operations for the first quarter of 2026 was $41.1 million as compared to $38.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $15.9 million in the first quarter of 2025. Free Cash Flow for the first quarter of 2026 was $40.9 million as compared to $36.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 and $15.8 million in the first quarter of 2025.(2)
Capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2026 were $0.2 million and net cash used in investing activities during the first quarter of 2026 was $2.1 million.
Net cash used in financing activities during the first quarter of 2026 was $40.0 million, which consisted of approximately $14.7 million of dividends and distributions paid, $25.2 million of debt repayments and $0.1 million of other costs.
Strong Balance Sheet with Ample Liquidity
Total liquidity was $259.7 million as of March 31, 2026, including approximately $230.0 million of available borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility and total cash and cash equivalents of $29.7 million. The Company had $545 million of borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2026, versus $570 million outstanding as of December 31, 2025.
First Quarter 2026 Dividend
The LandBridge Board of Directors declared a dividend on our Class A shares of $0.12 per share, payable on June 18, 2026, to shareholders of record as of June 4, 2026, and a corresponding required cash distribution to DBR Land Holdings LLC unitholders.

Updated 2026 Outlook
The Company increases its outlook for fiscal year 2026, with Adjusted EBITDA expected to be between $210 million and $230 million. This updated guidance reflects increased visibility and conviction in our commercial pipeline for the remainder of 2026, combined with a more supportive macroeconomic environment.
Reconciliations of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures are not available due to the challenges and impracticability of estimating certain items, particularly non-recurring gains or losses, unusual or non-recurring items, income tax benefit or expense, or one-time transaction costs and cost of revenue. We are unable to reasonably predict these because they are uncertain and depend on various factors not yet known, which could have a material impact on GAAP results for the guidance period. Because of those challenges, a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is not available without unreasonable effort.
(1) 1Q26 net income and net income margin include a non-cash expense of $11.3 million attributable to share-based compensation, of which $9.0 million is attributable to management incentive units issued by LandBridge Holdings LLC. Any actual cash expense associated with such incentive units will be borne solely by LandBridge Holdings LLC and not the Company. The incentive units are not dilutive of public ownership.
(2) Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Comparison of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included within the Appendix of this press release for related disclosures and reconciliations to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
(3) Acreage count excludes acreage leased from the BLM and the State of New Mexico.
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
Our financial statements and related footnotes are available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 6, 2026.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This news release may contain forward-looking statements that are based on LandBridge’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, LandBridge, and therefore involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, strategies, plans, objectives, expectations, intentions, assumptions, future operations and prospects and other statements that are not historical facts, including our estimated future financial performance. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Although LandBridge believes that plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by any forward-looking statements made herein are reasonable, LandBridge may be unable to achieve such plans, intentions or expectations and actual results, and performance or achievements may vary materially and adversely from those envisaged in this news release due to a number of factors including, but not limited to: our customers’ demand for and use of our land and resources; the success of our affiliates, including WaterBridge, in executing their business strategies, including their ability to construct infrastructure, attract customers and operate successfully on our land; our customers’ ability to develop our land or any potential acquired acreage to accommodate any future surface use developments; our ability to continue the payment of dividends; our ability to enforce our surface use agreements and other agreements with our customers; the domestic and foreign supply of, and demand for, energy sources, including the impact of political instability or armed conflict in oil and natural gas producing regions, including increased hostilities in the Middle East, including Iran, and other sustained military campaigns, the Russia-Ukraine war, as well as the conditions in South America, Central America, China and Russia and acts of terrorism or sabotage, actions relating to oil price and production controls by the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia and other allied producing countries, such as announcements of potential changes to oil production levels; our reliance on a limited number of customers and a particular region for substantially all of our revenues, including the potential consolidation of such customers within such region; our ability to enter into favorable
5
contracts regarding surface uses, access agreements and fee arrangements, including the prices we are able to charge and the margins we are able to realize; our business strategies and our ability to execute thereon, including our ability to attract non-traditional energy customers to use our land and resources and to successfully implement our growth plans and manage any resultant growth; our level of indebtedness and our ability to service our indebtedness; the costs associated with our acquisitions, and the risk that we may not be able to integrate and/or realize the anticipated benefits and synergies therefrom; and any changes in general economic and/or industry specific conditions. These risks, as well as other risks associated with LandBridge are also more fully discussed in LandBridge's filings with the SEC, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Comparison of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are supplemental non-GAAP measures that we use to evaluate current, past and expected future performance. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and cash flows, they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, gross margin or any other measures presented under GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are used by our management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors, research analysts and others, to assess the financial performance of our assets over the long term to generate sufficient cash to return capital to equity holders or service indebtedness. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest; taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; share-based compensation; non-recurring transaction-related expenses; litigation settlements and expenses incurred outside of the ordinary course of business; debt modification and extinguishment costs; gains or losses on disposal of assets; and other non-cash or non-recurring expenses. We define Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are useful because they allow us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period, and against our peers, without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income (loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry depending upon accounting methods, book values of assets, capital structures and the method by which the assets were acquired.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income as determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin for the periods indicated.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are used to assess our ability to repay our indebtedness, return capital to our shareholders and fund potential acquisitions without access to external sources of financing for such purposes. We define Free Cash Flow as cash flow from operating activities less investment in capital expenditures. We define Free Cash Flow Margin as Free Cash Flow divided by total revenues.
We believe Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin are useful because they allow for an effective evaluation of both our operating and financial performance, as well as the capital intensity of our business, and subsequently the ability of our operations to generate cash flow that is available to distribute to our shareholders, reduce leverage or support acquisition activities.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP to Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Margin, respectively, for the periods indicated.
