PACIFIC COAST OIL TRUST (NYSE:ROYT) (the “Trust”), a royalty trust formed by Pacific Coast Energy Company LP (“PCEC”), announced today a cash distribution to the holders of its units of beneficial interest of $0.02381 per unit, payable on September 17, 2019 to unitholders of record on September 3, 2019. The Trust’s distribution calculation relates to net profits and overriding royalties generated during July 2019 as provided in the conveyance of net profits and overriding royalty interest. All information in this press release has been provided to the Trustee by PCEC.

The current month’s calculation for the Developed Properties resulted in $1.3 million of revenues less direct operating expenses and development costs. The current month’s revenues were $3.8 million, lease operating expenses including property taxes were $2.4 million and capital expenditures were approximately $0.1 million. Average realized prices for the Developed Properties were $62.82 per Boe in July, as compared to $60.89 per Boe in June. Net profits for the month of July for the Developed Properties were $1.0 million.

The current month’s calculation included approximately $90,000 for the 7.5% overriding royalty interest on the Remaining Properties from Orcutt Diatomite and Orcutt Field. Average realized prices for the Remaining Properties were $60.04 per Boe in July, as compared to $58.52 per Boe in June. The cumulative net profits deficit for the Remaining Properties, including the 7.5% overriding royalty interest payments, decreased by approximately $0.1 million and now totals $0.5 million as of July 2019.

The net cash flow available for distribution to the holders of units of beneficial interest is approximately $0.9 million. The proceeds expected to be received by the Trust in September of $1.1 million consist of $1.0 million in income from the Developed Properties and approximately $90,000 in income from the 7.5% overriding royalty interest on the Remaining Properties. The proceeds to be received by the Trust will be partially offset by approximately $93,000 for the monthly operating and services fee payable to PCEC, approximately $33,000 for Trust cash reserves and $50,000 in Trust general and administrative expenses, resulting in the net cash flow available for distribution of approximately $0.9 million.
