Viper Energy collects mineral royalties on 60,725 net acres in the Permian, receiving revenue from production without funding drilling, so higher WTI flows largely to cash available for distribution. The company carries no hedges and has a variable dividend that expands when oil rises, with management committed to returning excess cash if net debt is at or below $1.5 billion. Recent acquisitions increased proved reserves and production but also raised debt to about $2.2 billion, leaving leverage and operator-driven production levels as key downside risks if oil retreats or drilling slows. » Więcej na finance.yahoo.com
