PERMIAN BASIN ROYALTY TRUST
ANNOUNCES JUNE CASH DISTRIBUTION
DALLAS, Texas, June 20, 2016 Permian Basin Royalty Trust (NYSE: PBT) (Permian) today declared a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial interest of $0.034538 per unit, payable on July 15, 2016, to unit holders of record on June 30, 2016.
This months distribution increased from the previous month due to an increase in the pricing of oil and gas but offset by a decrease in production due to a shorter month of April for the Waddell Ranch. Also, with the increased pricing of production, the Waddell Ranch Properties are no longer in a deficit balance and contributed $1,012,222 to this months distribution.
WADDELL RANCH
Production for the underlying properties at the Waddell Ranch was 74,177 barrels of oil and 403,249 Mcf of gas. The production for the Trusts allocated portion of the Waddell Ranch was 22,498 barrels of oil and 120,459 Mcf of gas. The average price for oil was $37.06 per bbl and for gas was $1.89 per Mcf. This would primarily reflect production and pricing for the month of April for oil and the month of March for gas. These allocated volumes were significantly impacted by the pricing of both oil and gas.
This production and pricing for the Underlying Properties resulted in revenues for the Waddell Ranch Properties of $3,512,055. Deducted from these would be the Lease Operating Expense (LOE) of $1,481,990, taxes of $352,410 and Capital Expenditures (CAPEX) of $328,025 totaling $2,162,426 resulting in a Net Profit of $1,349,630 for the month of May. With the Trusts Net Profit Interest (NPI) of 75% of the underlying properties, this would result in a net contribution by the Waddell Ranch Properties of $1,012,222 to this months distribution.
ConocoPhillips has revised the 2016 capital expenditure budget which will total $2.45 million for the entire Waddell Ranch Project and $1.08 million net to the Trust. There will be no new drilled wells, no recompletions, and only some facilities projects.

TEXAS ROYALTY PROPERTIES
Production for the underlying properties at the Texas Royalties was 26,300 barrels of oil and 34,250 Mcf of gas. The production for the Trusts allocated portion of the Texas Royalties was 24,985 barrels of oil and 32,538 Mcf of gas. The average price for oil was $35.80 per bbl and for gas was $2.94 per Mcf. This would primarily reflect production and pricing for the month of April for oil and the month of March for gas. These allocated volumes were impacted by the pricing of both oil and gas.
This production and pricing for the underlying properties resulted in revenues for the Texas Royalties of $1,042,201. Deducted from these would be taxes totaling $197,423 resulting in a Net Profit of $844,778 for the month of May. With the Trusts Net Profit Interest (NPI) of 95% of the Underlying Properties, this would result in net contribution by the Texas Royalties of $802,539 to this months distribution.
General and Administrative Expenses deducted for the month were $205,040 resulting in a distribution of $1,609,776 to 46,608,796 units outstanding, or $.034538 per unit.
The worldwide market conditions continue to affect the pricing for domestic production. It is difficult to predict what effect these conditions will have on future distributions.
