Unit Corporation Announces Completion of Texas Panhandle Asset Sale

On December 13, 2023, Unit Corporation (OTCQX: UNTC) (Company) completed the previously announced sale of certain non-core oil and gas assets in the Texas Panhandle (the “Divested Assets”) to a third party for net cash proceeds received at closing of $50 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement.

The proceeds from the sale will be used to fund the Company’s previously announced conditional special cash dividend of $5.00 per share of common stock to be paid on December 27, 2023, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 18, 2023.

The Divested Assets consist of approximately 51,000 net acres in the Texas Panhandle held by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Unit Petroleum Company (UPC). UPC is retaining its core Granite Wash properties located in Roberts and Hemphill Counties, Texas.

Phil Frohlich, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This transaction is a great example of our strategy to prune our non-core assets and return value to our shareholders.”
