Oil cash receipts for the properties underlying the Trust totaled $1.61 million for the current month, a decrease of $0.15 million from the prior month’s distribution period. This decrease was due to a decrease in sales volumes that was not offset by the increase in oil prices. The decrease in sales volumes was due in part to a winter storm in February 2021 that caused Boaz Energy to shut in some wells temporarily.
Natural gas cash receipts for the properties underlying the Trust totaled $0.16 million for the current month, a decrease of $0.02 million from the prior month’s distribution period. This decrease was due to a decrease in sales volumes that was not offset by the increase in natural gas prices.
Total direct operating expenses, including marketing, lease operating expenses and workover expenses, were $0.59 million reflecting a $0.13 million increase from the prior month. Severance and ad valorem taxes were $0.15 million.
Capital expenditures were $0.11 million in the current month, a decrease of $0.07 million from the prior month. Boaz Energy indicated the capital expenditures were primarily related to non-operated drilling and completion activities in Crane County.

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this press release constitute “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements represent the Trust’s and Boaz Energy’s expectations or beliefs concerning future events, and it is possible that the results described in this press release will not be achieved. These forward-looking statements include the amount and date of any anticipated distribution to unitholders, future cash retentions, advancements or recoupments from distributions, and statements regarding Boaz Energy’s operations and the resulting impact on the computation of the Trust’s net profits. The amount of cash received or expected to be received by the Trust (and its ability to pay distributions) has been and will continue to be directly affected by volatility in commodity prices, oversupply and the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Further, low oil and natural gas prices may result in no distributions to unitholders in certain periods. Other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements include expenses of the Trust and reserves for anticipated future expenses, uncertainties in estimating the cost of drilling activities and risks associated with drilling and operating oil and natural gas wells.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and, except as required by law, the Trust does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Trust to predict all such factors. When considering these forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2021 and other public filings filed with the SEC. The risk factors and other factors noted in the Trust's public filings with the SEC could cause its actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement.
