- Shares of Texas Pacific Land surged about 10.5% before the bell, as the company posted full-year highs in both revenue and cash flow.
- The company lifted its quarterly dividend by 12.5%, crediting a fresh royalty-acre deal and a new data-center infrastructure investment.
- After a brisk winter rally, traders are watching to see whether those gains will hold at the open.
Shares of Texas Pacific Land Corporation jumped about 10.5% before Friday’s opening bell, changing hands near $486.56. The stock had finished at $440.26 the previous session.
These days, TPL’s price swings carry extra weight. The stock has become a high-priced proxy for Permian Basin exposure—without the headaches of operator drilling risk. Investors zero in on royalty and water service cash flow, keeping a sharp eye on management’s capital decisions.
This week, the company’s latest results shifted focus squarely onto its water infrastructure and data-center projects—both tied to its land. Producers are already reconsidering drilling strategies with commodity prices cooling off.

CEO Tyler Glover called it “an excellent finish to a record year” and pointed to “next-generation opportunities in data centers and produced water desalination.” (Texas Pacific Land Corporation)

TPL is taking a different tack from its usual royalty strategy. The company spent $450.7 million in cash to acquire 17,306 net royalty acres—mostly in the Midland Basin.

The premarket move draws attention, but the real question is whether the gains hold up when trading kicks off. Investors are watching to see if the stock can maintain those recent highs as details shake out around the royalty-acres deal and the Bolt data-center news. Next up: the dividend record date lands on March 2. (Texas Pacific Land Corporation)
