NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.
Organization and Description of Business
Organization
Texas Pacific Land Corporation (which, together with its subsidiaries as the context requires, may be referred to as “TPL,” the “Company,” “our,” “we,” or “us”) is a Delaware corporation and one of the largest landowners in the State of Texas with approximately
873,000
surface acres of land, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. Additionally, we own a 1/128th nonparticipating perpetual oil and gas royalty interest (“NPRI”) under approximately
85,000
acres of land, a 1/16th NPRI under approximately
371,000
acres of land, and approximately
16,000
additional net royalty acres (normalized to 1/8th) (“NRA”) for a collective total of approximately
207,000
NRA, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin.
Our revenues are derived from oil and gas royalties, water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related (“SLEM”) income and land sales.
On January 11, 2021, we completed our reorganization from a business trust, Texas Pacific Land Trust (the “Trust”), organized under a Declaration of Trust dated February 1, 1888 (the “Declaration of Trust”), into Texas Pacific Land Corporation, a corporation formed and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Corporate Reorganization”).
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and on the same basis as the audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Annual Report”). The condensed consolidated financial statements herein include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. Such adjustments are of a normal nature and all intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), and these interim financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes included in our 2024 Annual Report. The results for the interim periods shown in this Quarterly Report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results.
Operating segments are based on components of the Company that engage in business activity that earn revenues and incur expenses and (a) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to make decisions about resource allocation and performance and (b) for which discrete financial information is available. The Company operates
two
operating segments which represent our reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. The segments enable the alignment of our strategies and objectives and provide a framework for timely and rational allocation of resources within our businesses. The measure of profit or loss that the CODM uses to assess performance and allocated resources to our reportable segments is net income. Our chief executive officer is the CODM and uses net income to evaluate income generated by each segment in his determination of allocating resources to each segment.
See Note 14, “Business Segment Reporting” for further information regarding our segments.
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the event estimates and/or assumptions prove to be different from actual amounts, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information.

Cash,

Equivalents and Restricted Cash
We consider investments in bank deposits, money market funds, and other highly-liquid cash investments, such as U.S. Treasury bills and commercial paper, with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Our cash equivalents are considered Level 1 assets in the fair value hierarchy.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that correspond to the same such amounts shown in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows (in thousands):

Assets Acquired in a Business Combination
On August 20, 2024, we acquired
4,120
acres of land along with other surface-related tangible and intangible assets (collectively referred to as the “Acquired Assets”) from an unaffiliated seller for total consideration of $
45.0
million, in an all-cash transaction. There were no liabilities assumed by the Company in this transaction. The Acquired Assets generate revenue streams across water sales, produced water royalties, and SLEM, and provide additional commercial growth opportunities for the Company to expand water sourcing and produced water opportunities to both new and existing customers. The Acquired Assets are located in the Midland Basin.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method and, therefore, the Acquired Assets were recorded based on their fair value on a nonrecurring basis on the date of acquisition and are subject to fair value adjustments under certain circumstances. In determining the fair values of the Acquired Assets, management made estimates, judgements and assumptions. Inputs used to determine fair values of assets included internally-developed models, risk-adjusted discount rates by asset class, publicly available data on land sales comparisons and other cost analysis. These fair values are considered Level 3 assets in the fair value hierarchy. There was
no
goodwill recorded in connection with this acquisition. The purchase price allocation was finalized during the year ended December 31, 2024.
The following table presents the allocation of fair value by asset class (in thousands):

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenues and operating expenses from the acquisition were approximately $

million, respectively, and are included in our condensed consolidated statements of income.

Vested PSUs are based on the original number of PSUs granted (i.e. target units). The actual number of shares delivered upon vesting of PSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2025 totaled
14,364
shares, of which
6,250
shares were surrendered by employees to the Company upon vesting to settle tax withholdings.
Each PSU has a value equal to
one
share of Common Stock. The PSUs will vest

Production ETF (“XOP Index”), and
50
% of the PSUs may be earned based on the cumulative free cash flow per share (“FCF”) over the
three-year
vesting period. Because the RTSR PSUs are market-based awards, their grant date fair value was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model that uses the same input assumptions as the Black-Scholes model to determine the expected potential ranking of the Company against the XOP Index (
i.e.
, the probability of satisfying the market condition defined in the awards). Expected volatility in the model was estimated based on the volatility of historical stock prices over a period matching the expected term of the awards. The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury yield constant maturities for a term matching the expected term of the awards. The inputs for the Monte Carlo simulation model are designated as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Equity Plan for Non-Employee Directors
The maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2021 Directors Plan is
30,000
shares, which may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares, or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner. As of March 31, 2025,
23,031
shares of Common Stock remained available under the 2021 Directors Plan for future grants. On January 1, 2025, the Company granted
1,188

Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus unvested RSAs and other nonvested awards granted pursuant to our incentive and equity compensation plans. The computation of diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if all outstanding awards under the incentive and equity compensation plans were converted into shares of Common Stock or resulted in the issuance of shares of Common Stock that would then share in the earnings of the Company. The number of dilutive securities is computed using the treasury stock method.
The following table sets forth the computation of EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands, except number of shares and per share data):

Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
Management is not aware of any legal, environmental or other commitments or contingencies that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity as of March 31, 2025, other than as described below.
Prior to January 1, 2022, ad valorem taxes with respect to our historical royalty interests were paid directly by third parties pursuant to an existing arrangement. After the completion of our Corporate Reorganization, we received notice from a third party that it no longer intended to pay the ad valorem taxes related to such historical royalty interests. In order to protect the historical royalty interests from any potential tax liens for non-payment of ad valorem taxes, we have accrued and/or paid such ad valorem taxes since January 1, 2022. While we intend to seek reimbursement from the third party for such taxes, we are unable to estimate the amount and/or likelihood of such reimbursement, and accordingly, no loss recovery receivable has been recorded as of March 31, 2025.

Business Segment Reporting
During the periods presented, we reported our financial performance based on the following reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. We eliminate inter-segment revenues and expenses, if any, upon consolidation. There were no inter-segment revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Land and Resource Management segment encompasses the business of managing our approximately
873,000
surface acres of land and our approximately
207,000
NRA of oil and gas royalty interests, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. The revenue streams of this segment consist primarily of royalties from oil and gas, revenues from easements and commercial leases, and land and material sales.
The Water Services and Operations segment encompasses the business of providing a full-service water offering to operators in the Permian Basin. The revenue streams of this segment primarily consist of revenue generated from sales of sourced and treated water as well as revenue from produced water royalties.

Words or phrases such as “expects” and “believes” or similar expressions or the negative of such terms, when used in this Quarterly Report or other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s future operations and prospects, the markets for real estate in the areas in which the Company owns real estate, applicable zoning regulations, the markets for oil and gas including actions of other oil and gas producers or consortiums worldwide such as the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and Russia (collectively referred to as “OPEC+”), expected competition, management’s intent, beliefs or current expectations with respect to the Company’s future financial performance and other matters. All forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based on information available to us, and speak only, as of the date this Quarterly Report is filed with the SEC, and we assume no responsibility to update any such forward-looking statements, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, performance, prospects or opportunities to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our 2024 Annual Report filed with the SEC on February 19, 2025 and the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Period-to-period comparisons of financial data are not necessarily indicative, and therefore, should not be relied upon as indicators, of the Company’s future performance.
Overview
Texas Pacific Land Corporation (which, together with its subsidiaries as the context requires, may be referred to as “TPL”, the “Company”, “our”, “we” or “us”) is a Delaware corporation and one of the largest landowners in the State of Texas with approximately 873,000 surface acres of land, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin. Additionally, we own a 1/128th nonparticipating perpetual oil and gas royalty interest (“NPRI”) under approximately 85,000 acres of land, a 1/16th NPRI under approximately 371,000 acres of land, and approximately 16,000 additional net royalty acres (normalized to 1/8th) (“NRA”), for a collective total of approximately 207,000 NRA, principally concentrated in the Permian Basin.
The Company was originally organized under a Declaration of Trust, dated February 1, 1888, to receive and hold title to extensive tracts of land in the State of Texas, previously the property of the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. We completed our reorganization on January 11, 2021 from a business trust, Texas Pacific Land Trust, into Texas Pacific Land Corporation.
We are not an oil and gas producer. Our business activity is generated from surface and royalty interest ownership, primarily in the Permian Basin. Our revenues are derived from oil and gas royalties, water sales, produced water royalties, easements and other surface-related income and land sales. Due to the nature of our operations and concentration of our ownership in one geographic location, our revenue and net income are subject to substantial fluctuations from quarter to quarter and year to year. In addition to fluctuations in response to changes in the market price for oil and gas, our financial results are also subject to decisions by not only the owners and operators of the oil and gas wells to which our oil and gas royalty interests relate, but also to other owners and operators in the Permian Basin as it relates to our other revenue streams, principally water sales, produced water royalties, easements, and other surface-related revenue.
For a detailed overview of our business and business segments, see Part I, Item 1. “Business — General” in our 2024 Annual Report.

Market Conditions
Average WTI oil prices for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were down approximately 7% compared to average oil prices during the same period last year. Oil prices continue to be impacted by certain actions by OPEC+, geopolitics, and evolving global supply and demand trends, among other factors. In addition, uncertainty around tariffs implemented by and towards the United States has created incremental global economic headwinds, which has, in part, contributed to relatively weaker oil prices in 2025 to-date. Average Henry Hub natural gas prices during 2025 have increased approximately 93% compared to average prior year natural gas prices. Global and domestic natural gas markets have benefited from improved supply-demand balances, including tailwinds from expanded liquefied natural gas capacity and improved industrial and power demand, among other factors. Since mid-2022, the Waha Hub located in Pecos County, Texas has at times experienced significant negative price differentials relative to Henry Hub, located in Erath, Louisiana, due in part to growing local Permian natural gas production and limited natural gas pipeline takeaway capacity. Midstream infrastructure is currently being developed by operators to provide additional takeaway capacity, though the impact on future basis differentials will be dependent on future natural gas production and other factors. Changes in global and domestic macro-economic conditions could result in additional shifts in oil and gas supply and demand in future periods. Although our revenues are directly and indirectly impacted by changes in oil and natural gas prices, we believe our royalty interests (which require no capital expenditures or operating expense burden from us for well development), strong balance sheet, and liquidity position will help us navigate through potential commodity price volatility.
Permian Basin Activity
The Permian Basin is one of the oldest and most well-known hydrocarbon-producing areas and currently accounts for a substantial portion of oil and gas production in the United States, covering approximately 86,000 square miles across southeastern New Mexico and western Texas. Exploration and production (“E&P”) companies operating in the Permian Basin continue to maintain robust drilling and development activity. Per the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Permian production is currently in excess of 6.5 million barrels per day, which is higher than the average daily production in this region for any year prior to 2025.
Due to our ownership concentration in the Permian Basin, our revenues are directly impacted by oil and gas pricing and drilling activity in the Permian Basin. Below are metrics for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

Statistics for similar data are also available from other sources. The comparability between these other sources and the sources used by the Company may differ.
The metrics above show selected domestic benchmark oil and natural gas prices and approximate activity levels in the Permian Basin for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. While average oil prices for the three months ended March 31, 2025 decreased compared to the same period in 2024, average Henry Hub and Waha natural gas prices for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased compared to the same period in 2024. E&P companies broadly have continued to deploy capital at a measured pace as drilling and development activities across the Permian Basin have remained strong overall. As we are a significant landowner in the Permian Basin and not an oil and gas producer, our revenue is affected by the development decisions made by companies that operate in the areas where we own royalty interests and land. Accordingly, these decisions made by others affect, both directly and indirectly, our oil and gas royalties, produced water royalties, water sales, and other surface-related income.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Overview
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash flows generated from our operations. Our primary liquidity and capital requirements are for capital expenditures related to our Water Services and Operations segment (the extent and timing of which are under our control), working capital and general corporate needs.
We continuously review our levels of liquidity and capital resources. If market conditions were to change and our revenues were to decline significantly or our operating costs were to increase significantly, our cash flows and liquidity could be reduced. Should this occur, we could seek alternative sources of funding. We had no debt, credit facilities or any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2025.
As we evaluate our current capital structure, capital allocation priorities, business fundamentals, and investment opportunities, we have set a target to maintain a cash and cash equivalents balance of approximately $700 million. Above this target, we will seek to deploy the majority of our free cash flow towards returning capital to our stockholders in the form of special dividends and share repurchases. As of March 31, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $460.4 million that we expect to utilize, along with cash flow from operations, to provide capital to support our business, to pay regular dividends subject to the discretion of our board of directors (the “Board”), to repurchase shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), subject to market conditions, for potential acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. We believe that cash from operations, together with our cash and cash equivalents balances, will be sufficient to meet ongoing capital expenditures, working capital requirements and other cash needs for at least the next 12 months.
Return of Capital to Stockholders
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we paid $37.4 million in dividends to our stockholders. There were no repurchases of shares of our Common Stock during three months ended March 31, 2025.
Development of New Solutions for Produced Water and Capital Expenditures
In 2024, we announced our progress towards developing a patented energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and associated equipment that can recycle produced water into fresh water with quality standards appropriate for surface discharge and beneficial reuse. We have begun construction of our facility which will have an initial capacity of 10,000 barrels of water per day, with expected construction completion later in 2025. Cumulatively through March 31, 2025, we have spent $12.7 million ($0.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025) on this new energy-efficient desalination and treatment process and equipment, of which $8.0 million has been capitalized as of March 31, 2025.
Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, we invested approximately $9.9 million to maintain and/or enhance our water sourcing assets.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $156.7 million and $147.2 million, respectively. Our cash flow provided by operating activities is primarily from oil, gas and produced water
18
Table of Contents
royalties, water and land sales, easements, and other surface-related income. Cash flows used in operations generally consist of operating expenses associated with our revenue streams, general and administrative expenses and income taxes.
The increase in cash flows provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in operating income and changes in working capital requirements during 2025 as compared to 2024.
Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in investing activities was $12.5 million and $2.2 million, respectively. Our cash flows used in investing activities are primarily related to acquisitions and capital expenditures related to our water services and operations segment. Our acquisitions may include land, royalty interests and other similar tangible and intangible assets.
The increase in net cash used by investing activities was primarily due to the $6.7 million increase in capital expenditures related to our water sourcing assets during the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. In addition, we acquired royalty interests for $3.5 million, net of post-close adjustments, during the three months ended March 31, 2025. No acquisitions were made during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, net cash used in financing activities was $51.8 million and $38.5 million, respectively. Our cash flows used in financing activities primarily consist of activities that return capital to our stockholders, such as payments of dividends and repurchases of our Common Stock.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we paid total dividends of $37.4 million and $26.9 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, employees surrendered $14.3 million in shares to the Company to settle tax withholdings related to stock vesting. We had no repurchases of our Common Stock during the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we repurchased $10.3 million shares of our Common Stock (including share repurchases not settled at the end of the period).

Consolidated Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 as Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Total revenues increased $21.8 million to $196.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $174.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Total operating expenses increased $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $38.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Net income was $120.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $114.4 million for the same period of 2024. Individual revenue and expense line items are discussed below under “Segment Results of Operations.”
Segment Results of Operations
We operate our business in two reportable segments: Land and Resource Management and Water Services and Operations. We eliminate any inter-segment revenues and expenses upon consolidation.
We evaluate the performance of our operating segments separately to monitor the different factors affecting financial results. The reportable segments presented are consistent with our reportable segments discussed in Note 14, “Business Segment Reporting” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report. We monitor our reporting segments based upon net income calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
As discussed in “Market Conditions” and “Permian Basin Activity” above, our segment revenues are directly influenced by development decisions made by our customers and the overall activity level in the Permian Basin. Accordingly, our segment revenues, sales volumes and associated expenses, as further discussed below, fluctuate from period to period based upon those decisions and activity levels.

Oil and gas royalties.
Oil and gas royalty revenue was $111.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $92.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $19.1 million. Our share of production increased to 31.1 thousand barrels of oil equivalent (“Boe”) per day for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to 24.8 thousand Boe per day for the same period of 2024. The average realized price decreased 2.6% to $41.58 per Boe for the three months ended March 31, 2025 from $42.71 per Boe for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Commonly used definitions in the oil and gas industry not previously defined: MBbls represents one thousand barrels of crude oil, condensate or NGLs. Mcf represents one thousand cubic feet of natural gas. MMcf represents one million cubic feet of natural gas. MBoe represents one thousand Boe. MBoe/d represents one thousand Boe per day.
Easements and other surface-related income.
Easements and other surface-related income was $15.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $2.8 million compared to $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Easements and other surface-related income includes revenue related to the use and crossing of our land for oil and gas exploration and production, renewable energy, and agricultural operations. The decrease in easements and other surface-related income was principally related to a decrease of $5.1 million in pipeline easements, partially offset by increases in utility and wellbore easements and surface damages revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. The amount of income derived from pipeline easements is a function of the term of the easement, the size of the easement, and the number of easements entered into for any given period. Easements and other surface-related income is dependent on development decisions made by companies that operate in the areas where we own land and is, therefore, unpredictable and may vary significantly from period to period. See “Market Conditions” and “Permian Basin Activity” above for additional discussion of development activity in the Permian Basin during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Table of Contents
Salaries and related employee expenses
. Salaries and related employee expenses, which include not only salaries, equity and non-equity incentive compensation, but also employee benefits and contract labor expense, were $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $6.5 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in salaries and related employee expenses is principally related to market compensation adjustments that take effect annually at the start of the year.
General and administrative expenses.
General and administrative expenses were $3.3 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $6.7 million for the comparable period of 2024. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in legal expenses of $3.1 million over the same time period.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization
. Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $0.7 million for the comparable period of 2024. The increase was principally due to depletion expense associated with royalty interests acquired during the second half of 2024.
Water Services and Operations
Water sales
. Water sales revenue increased $1.7 million to $38.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period of 2024. The growth in water sales was principally due to an increase of 14.0% in water sales volumes for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period of 2024.
Produced water royalties.
Produced water royalties are received from the transfer or disposal of produced water on our land. Produced water royalties are contractual and not paid as a matter of right. We do not operate any saltwater disposal wells. Produced water royalties were $27.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $23.0 million for the same period in 2024. This increase was principally due to increased produced water volumes for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024.
Salaries and related employee expenses
. Salaries and related employee expenses, which include not only salaries, equity and non-equity incentive compensation, but also employee benefits and contract labor expense, were $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $6.0 million for the same period of 2024. The increase in salaries and related employee expenses is principally related to market compensation adjustments that take effect annually at the start of the year.
Water service-related expenses
. Water service-related expenses increased $0.9 million to $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024. Certain types of water-related expenses, including, but not limited to, treatment, transfer, water purchases, repairs and maintenance, equipment rental, and fuel costs, vary from period to period as our customers’ needs and requirements change. Right of way and other expenses also vary from period to period depending upon location of customer delivery. The increase in water service-related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the same period of 2024 was principally related to a 14.0% increase in water sales volumes.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization
. Depreciation, depletion and amortization was $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to $3.1 million for the comparable period of 2024. The increase was principally due to depreciation expense related to new water service-related assets placed in service.
Non-GAAP Performance Measures
In addition to amounts presented in accordance with GAAP, we also present certain supplemental non-GAAP performance measurements. These measurements are not to be considered more relevant or accurate than the measurements presented in accordance with GAAP. In compliance with the requirements of the SEC, our non-GAAP measurements are reconciled to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP performance measure. For all non-GAAP measurements, neither the SEC nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on these non-GAAP measurements.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow
EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measurement of earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization. The purpose of presenting EBITDA is to highlight earnings without finance, taxes, and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, and its use is limited to specialized analysis. We calculate Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA plus employee share-based compensation. The purpose of presenting Adjusted EBITDA is to highlight earnings without non-cash activity such as share-based compensation and other non-recurring or unusual items, if applicable. We calculate free cash flow as Adjusted EBITDA less current income tax expense and capital expenditures. The purpose of presenting free cash flow is to provide an additional measure of operating performance. We have presented EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow because we believe that these metrics are useful supplements to net income in analyzing the Company's operating performance.

Our definitions of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow may differ from computations of similarly titled measures of other companies.
