LandBridge to Acquire ~37,500 Acres in Texas, Expanding Permian Basin Holdings, Water Infrastructure Access

LandBridge (NYSE:LB) is one of the best young stocks with huge upside potential. On October 7, LandBridge announced that it has agreed to acquire ~37,500 total acres from 1918 Ranch & Royalty. The acquisition is expected to close in Q4 2025. The transaction involves acreage across Loving, Reeves, Winkler, and Ward counties in Texas and is expected to increase LandBridge’s total holdings to ~300,000 surface acres.

The acquired acreage is composed of ~22,000 fee surface acres, ~3,500 surface acres held under a long-term management agreement, and ~12,000 leasehold surface acres. The acquisition is anticipated to support existing cash flows and future revenue growth opportunities.

Upon closing, the transaction will immediately provide LandBridge with access to high-quality pore space adjacent to its large contiguous surface acreage position in Loving County, Texas. This is expected to support additional water handling infrastructure to manage escalating commercial produced water volumes in the Stateline region of the Delaware Basin.

LandBridge (NYSE:LB), together with its subsidiaries, owns and manages land and resources to support and enhance oil and natural gas development in the US.
