Acquisition is first in Ohio County, WV for Peregrine

DALLAS, TEXAS, May 4, 2021 – Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) has agreed to acquire producing oil and gas royalties in Ohio County, West Virginia from a private seller (“Client”).

This marks the first acquisition in Ohio County, WV for the Texas-based royalty buyers. 

“We’re excited about our latest acquisition in West Virginia as these particular properties are the type of long-life, mature assets that we consistently look for,” commented Peregrine Managing Partner, Wolf Hanschen. “Certainly, Southwestern is one of those operators,” Hanschen continued, “that we are always happy to buy minerals under as they are basin-specific with a solid understanding of what it takes to be a successful natural gas producer today.”

The acquisition included multiple natural gas wells operated by Southwestern Energy (NYSE: SWN), one of the leading producers of natural gas and natural gas liquids in the United States. The operator covers more than 577,000 net acres in the West Virginia panhandle as well as adjacent areas of Pennsylvania and Ohio and northeast Appalachia. 

In this instance, Peregrine’s client was working through succession planning while seeking to simplify their estate and minimize their tax exposure. Many of Peregrine’s mineral owner clients have reached out in the past few weeks to weigh options in light of the current administration’s push to increase the capital gains tax, which would undoubtedly impact almost all mineral sales.

Hanschen added, “We are happy to be a resource for royalty owners all across Appalachia who are looking for a greater understanding of their properties and the options around them.”

Quick Evaluations and Prompt Closings Help Local Royalty Owner Divest

DENVER, COLORADO, April 8, 2021 – Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) has agreed to acquire producing royalties across Garfield and Mesa Counties, Colorado from a private seller (“Client”).

Peregrine finalized the royalty acquisition with over 100 natural gas wells under Caerus Oil & Gas, an active and private oil & gas producer. Caerus Oil & Gas is a leading local operator in the Piceance and Uinta Basins with their core assets including over 6,800 producing wells and a substantial undeveloped acreage position with over 8,000 future drilling locations.

Peregrine’s Client in this transaction was a colleague in the oil and gas royalty space. The acquisition developed as the Client reviewed options around their portfolio and underwent strategic planning for the future; interested in high-grading their portfolio and fast-forwarding cashflow from a passive income stream to redeploy the income towards more core areas of their business. Peregrine was approached because of their standing reputation for transparency throughout the process, and their ability to close quickly. The speedy and accurate process allowed the Client to receive capital within a matter of weeks.

“We are starting to have more and more conversations with colleagues from the industry in this same vein,” said Peregrine Managing Partner, C.J. Tibbs. “With pricing coming back to above pre-pandemic levels,” Tibbs continued, “there are folks in the royalty space now interested in potentially divesting pieces of their portfolios to return some liquidity to their investors and or simplify a bit of their back-office accounting challenges associated with the fractionalized interests.”

Texas-Based Company Continues to Provide Solutions for Royalty Owners Nationwide

MIDLAND, TEXAS, March 11, 2021 – Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) has agreed to acquire producing royalties in Andrews County, Texas from an undisclosed private seller (“Client”). 

The acquisition features production from multiple wells under two Permian Basin producers, Perdure Petroleum and Legacy Reserves, Inc. (NYSE: LGCY). 

Peregrine worked alongside the Client, a ranching family, to divest non-core royalties in order to have the capital to reinvest in desired ranching equipment. 

The Client commented on the acquisition, “I was surprised and impressed with Peregrine’s communication and turnaround time. Our family wanted to move quick, but I wasn’t expecting this process to go as smooth and quick as it did. We hadn’t planned on selling, but after going through this process with Josh and his team, and running some numbers on our end, we’re confident we made the right choice.”

“Being a company who acquires producing oil and gas royalties nationwide,” said Josh Prier, Managing Partner at Peregrine, “we have been fortunate to have worked with numerous clients, each with a different set of circumstances and objectives. We strive to accommodate each client’s needs by first listening and then moving efficiently to get them meet their goals. We know their time is valuable, so we treat it as such.” 

Peregrine has worked with a number of clients in West Texas and will continue looking for additional opportunities to add value to royalty owners in the Permian Basin. The company works exclusively on producing oil and gas royalties and works directly with mineral owners as well as industry professionals nationwide.

Acquisition Stretches Across 36 Counties in the Northeast

DALLAS, TEXAS, November 10, 2020 – Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) announced the recent acquisition of producing mineral interests covering almost 3,000 net mineral acres throughout the Appalachian Basin.

The diversified mineral portfolio spans 36 counties, the bulk of which are located in gas-heavy regions of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. The acquired acreage includes over 300 producing wells under 22 operators including Range Resources (NYSE: RRC), Cabot Oil & Gas Corporation (NYSE: COG), and EQT Corporation (NYSE: EQT).

“We are excited about this latest acquisition as the geographic and operational footprint adds to our already diverse portfolio in the Northeast,” said C.J. Tibbs, Peregrine Managing Partner. “These properties had all of the qualities we look for in terms of low decline rates and therefore steady cash flows. We are optimistic that the improved outlook for natural gas prices will drive further activity across the non-producing sections of this acreage.”

Over the past several months, Peregrine worked closely with a family office who decided to simplify their estate as they worked to limit succession issues and eliminate the family’s ongoing management burdens associated with such a complex mineral portfolio.

Tibbs continued, “The asset management component can become very time-consuming and expensive, especially if this isn’t your core business. We are having more and more of these conversations with royalty owners who are looking to simplify their lives and/or spend more time in their core business as opposed to the ongoing management of their royalty interests.”

Peregrine Continues Strong Acquisition Efforts to Round Out 2020

DALLAS, TEXAS, October 27, 2020 — Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) is pleased to announce additional closings of producing royalty properties in multiple counties across the Marcellus Shale.

The most recent acquisitions, located in Greene County, PA and Guernsey County, Ohio, each contain multiple producing wells under EQT (NYSE: EQT) and Ascent Resources (NYSE: AST.L), respectively. Each acquisition was purchased from private sellers and closed over the past two weeks.

This marks the second acquisition in Ohio and the tenth acquisition in Pennsylvania this year for the Texas-based buyers.

Despite many other mineral buying firms halting activity in light of the recent market turmoil, Peregrine continues their steadfast efforts of working alongside royalty owners nationwide providing answers for clients looking for quick and simple divestment options.

“We’ve really enjoyed working with local mineral buyers, landmen and geologists who have helped connect our team to royalty owners in their backyard who are looking for relief,” said Josh Prier, Managing Director of Peregrine. Prier noted that many industry professionals are finding themselves with time on their hands due to the market slowdown and working with Peregrine provides them an opportunity to add value not only for royalty owners in the area they may know, but for their families as well.

Peregrine focuses exclusively on producing oil and gas royalties and works directly with mineral owners as well as local land professionals in multiple basins across the country. The company’s proven track record has allowed many sellers to fast-forward decades of income and avoid long-term tax liabilities.

Texas-based buyer adds to growing holdings in Marcellus Shale

DALLAS, TEXAS, October 13, 2020 — Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) has announced the closing of producing royalty properties in the Marcellus Shale from multiple private sellers. The natural gas acquisitions in Tyler County, WV under Antero Resources (NYSE: AR) and Fayette County, PA under Chevron (NYSE: CVX) were both finalized in the first week of October.

As with many of the mineral owners Peregrine works with, the sellers recognized the opportunity to maximize the cash value of their property while minimizing the long-term tax liabilities. Both sought to re-deploy the cash proceeds into other areas of their financial portfolios where they had more control of the assets.

“As much as we liked the monthly income from our royalties,” one of the sellers noted, “this was an opportunity for us to take some chips off the table in what has been a pretty volatile natural gas market over the last couple of years. The lump sum payout we were able to get allowed us to pay off a chunk of debt and move into more liquid investments.”

While most royalty owners are initially averse to selling their interest, many of those that Peregrine works with have found out the hard way what it means to be over-weighted in the unpredictable market that is commodities, including oil and natural gas.

Peregrine’s Managing Director, C.J. Tibbs commented, “For years the mindset of royalty owners has been to hang onto what they have because Granddad told them so. We’ve started to see more sellers look at their royalty properties objectively in understanding the moving pieces and then working to provide the most value for their families moving forward. It’s not so black and white after all.”

DALLAS, TEXAS, October 1, 2020 — Peregrine Energy Partners has agreed to acquire producing mineral rights across 4,755 gross acres in Bradford County, PA for an undisclosed sum.

The producing natural gas acquisition is operated by Chief Oil & Gas and includes both producing and non-producing mineral rights. This represents the third acquisition of the year for Peregrine in this region of the Appalachia Basin.

“While we’ve traditionally been more active in the southwest portion of the state, we love the fundamentals of the northeast Marcellus Shale and have an internal goal to expand our footprint in those counties,” said Josh Prier, Managing Director of Peregrine.

Peregrine worked alongside the private sellers, a retired couple, who had the end-goal of simplifying their estate and reducing their overall tax bill. After reviewing the engineered evaluation of the property and comparing the estimated taxes on long-term gains vs. ordinary income, the couple decided it made sense to divest the interest and fast-forward the income.

Wolf Hanschen, Peregrine’s Co-Founder, commented, “One of our top objectives is to be a reliable and valued resource for our clients, whether they decide to sell or not. We know the decision to divest part or all of their royalties can be complicated, and each client’s situation is different. Accordingly, we strive to give them insight based on their specific circumstances as they look to understand the options in front of them.”

Despite the turbulent energy market in 2020, Peregrine has remained an active buyer of producing royalties throughout the year, often partnering with local land professionals to help connect with owners looking for a fast, fair, and simple sale process.

“The fourth quarter is usually one of our busier times of the year,” said C.J. Tibbs, Co-Founder of Peregrine.” Mr. Tibbs continues, “Around this time of year, owners are focused on estate clean-up and tax planning while local land professionals are looking for a strong finish to the year.”

Peregrine Energy Partners continues their acquisition of Marcellus and Utica Shale Royalty Assets

DALLAS, TEXAS, September 3, 2020 — Peregrine Energy Partners (“Peregrine”) has announced the closing of producing mineral interests in Monroe County, Ohio from a private seller.

In commenting on the transaction, the local royalty owner said of Peregrine, “They made the process seamless and continually went above and beyond as we worked together towards closing. I really appreciated the smooth and quick process from beginning to end.

The royalty owner continued, “After discussing my options with Mr. Prier, I decided that it was in my family’s best interest to sell part of my royalties in an effort to fast-forward the next half-decade of income and minimize my overall tax burden.”

This acquisition delivers on a key strategic objective of Peregrine as the company continues to target producing royalties in the Marcellus and Utica Shale formations. This marks the first acquisition in Ohio for Peregrine who has steadily expanded its Appalachia footprint.

The Founders have been active in Pennsylvania and West Virginia for over a decade but only recently began efforts to acquire royalties across the border in Ohio. “Ohio has been an area we’ve watched closely for the past few years,” said Josh Prier, Peregrine Managing Director. “As the current production has had some time to settle in and provide us with a clearer picture of the decline profile, we’ve begun to look for opportunities to work closely with the royalty owners and industry professionals in the Buckeye State.”

Peregrine finalized the acquisition of natural gas royalties in eastern Ohio under Montage Resources (NYSE: MR). Montage was recently acquired by Southwestern Energy (NYSE: SWN), now the third-largest operator in the Appalachia Basin.

REAL PEOPLE, REAL CONVERSATIONS

CAMERON KROESE

Discussing the acquisition, Wolf Hanschen, Peregrine Co-Founder, remarked, “Our team is excited about the prospect of working with additional royalty owners in Ohio to bring transparency and optionality about their oil and gas interests.”

The current state of the economy and fluidity of the oil and gas industry has Peregrine committed and focused in their efforts to provide clients with reliable and valuable insight throughout the decision-making process. When Peregrine engages with a royalty owner, the company delivers a professional evaluation of clients’ interests, thereby helping them better understand their options which puts them in a more comfortable position to make the best decision for their family.
