Natural Resource Partners, a royalty owner of US mineral properties, has seen unit gains supported by rising metallurgical coal prices and progress on reducing roughly $70 million of debt. The royalty-based model requires little capex, so higher coal prices are expected to convert efficiently into free cash flow; bulls forecast about $200 million FCF in 2026 and $130–150 million in distributions, implying an 8–9% yield at current prices. Management prioritizes distributions and buybacks, and a potential special payout could lift trailing yields; continued deleveraging and durable cash flows could trigger a rerating toward a $150–$180 unit range. » More on finance.yahoo.com
