Post-quarter, Kimbell expanded its revolving credit facility borrowing base to $625.00 million and redeemed 50% of its Series A Preferred Units, leaving expected total debt near $462.10 million at roughly 1.5x net leverage. Management affirmed full-year 2025 guidance, citing 90 active rigs on its acreage and a healthy drilled-but-uncompleted well inventory as reasons for continued confidence.

“We are beginning 2025 with several new milestones for Kimbell, which include records for oil, natural gas and NGL revenues, consolidated adjusted EBITDA and cash available for distribution for Q1 2025. Other 2025 milestones so far include completing a highly attractive and accretive acquisition in the core of the Permian Basin on January 17, 2025, increasing the Company's borrowing base and elected commitments on the credit facility from $550 million to $625 million on May 1, 2025 and redeeming 50% of the Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Units on May 7, 2025, further simplifying our capital structure and reducing our cost of capital. Even with the uncertainty occurring across the broader geopolitical landscape, activity on our acreage remains robust with 90 rigs actively drilling on our acreage as of March 31, 2025, representing 16% market share of all land rigs drilling in the lower 48.”
