Our Partnership and Dorchester Minerals Operating LP, a Delaware limited partnership owned directly and indirectly by our General Partner (the “Operating Partnership”), are involved in legal and/or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of their businesses, none of which have predictable outcomes and none of which are believed to have any significant effect on consolidated financial position, cash flows, or operating results. During the first quarter of 2026, our Partnership and the Operating Partnership entered into a settlement and mutual release agreement with unrelated third parties resolving ordinary course litigation affecting certain leasehold in Midland County, Texas, which is owned by the Operating Partnership and subject to the NPI. The Operating Partnership received proceeds of $15.5 million, which were included in the calculation of the April 2026 NPI payment. |
