Unit Corporation (OTCQX: UNTC) has successfully completed the sale of some of its non-core oil and gas assets located in the Texas Panhandle. This sale, involving assets known as the ”Divested Assets,” resulted in the company receiving $50 million in cash at the time of closing. This amount may be adjusted later according to the terms of the sale agreement.
The proceeds from this sale are allocated to fund a special cash dividend of $5.00 per common stock share, which Unit Corporation plans to pay on December 27, 2023, to its shareholders who are recorded by December 18, 2023.
”This transaction is a great example of our strategy to prune our non-core assets and return value to our shareholders.”
- Phil Frohlich, the Company's Chief Executive Officer
The assets sold include about 51,000 net acres in the Texas Panhandle, owned by Unit Corporation's subsidiary, Unit Petroleum Company (UPC). Notably, UPC is retaining its key Granite Wash properties in Roberts and Hemphill Counties, Texas, which are central to its business focus.
