What CKX Lands, Inc. does

In the company’s own words

CKX Lands, Inc. (NYSE: CKX) owns and manages land in Louisiana, earning income from oil and gas royalties and leases, timber sales, land sales, and surface rents. It leases acreage to oil and gas operators but does not explore for oil or gas or operate wells; unrelated third parties conduct those activities. Surface income comes from recurring farming, recreational, and commercial leases, as well as uses such as pipeline rights of way and temporary worksites. Timber is actively managed, while oil and gas interests span 20 producing fields. Customers include oil and gas lessees, timber buyers, and surface lessees. The company reports revenue streams from oil and gas, timber, and surface activities rather than describing reportable business segments. At December 31, 2025, CKX owned approximately 7,023 net acres, all in Louisiana, and generated $838,543 in revenue for fiscal 2025. Founded in 1930 to hold mineral interests, it expanded into land ownership, including a major 1990 acquisition of an interest in about 35,575 acres in southwest Louisiana.
