| Investments | INVESTMENTS Our investments as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consist of the following:
We received stock of Standard Lithium under the terms of arrangements whereby Standard Lithium has the right to explore for, produce and extract lithium in our Arkansas leases and other additional potential resources in the Mojave region of California. The stock component of consideration received from Standard Lithium was initially recorded as unearned income based on the quoted market price at the time the stock was received, then recognized in income over the contract term. Changes in the value of stock are recorded in other (income) expense, net in our consolidated statements of operations. We also hold investments in convertible notes, common units and preferred units issued by two privately-held companies. These convertible notes, common units and preferred units are not publicly traded and may not be offered, sold, transferred or pledged until such common units are registered pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to an exemption from registration. Our exposure to potential losses is limited to our investments, including capitalized and accrued interest associated with the convertible notes. See Note 7 - “Fair Value Measurements” for further information.
