Exhibit 99.1
Acacia Research Reports Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Intellectual Property Licensing and Settlement Agreements Drive Q4 Income;
Company Continues to Advance Capital Allocation and Business Strategy,
Announced Agreement to Acquire Cash Flow-Generating Oil and Gas Assets
with a Goal of Driving Book Value per Share
New York, NY, March 14, 2024 - Acacia Research Corporation (Nasdaq: ACTG) (“Acacia” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2023.
Martin (“MJ”) D. McNulty, Jr., Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Through the last quarter of 2023 and into the beginning of 2024 we continued to meaningfully advance our business strategy in an effort to drive earnings and book value per share growth in disciplined and unique ways. For example, in the fourth quarter our Intellectual Property team generated $82 million in gross revenue from its WiFi-6 licensing initiatives. We were able to commit a portion of this income as well as proceeds from the sale of a life science asset into a highly attractive near-team addition to our oil and gas business, which we expect to close in Q2. We expect to execute on additional acquisitions, including in the oil and gas space, and anticipate further IP-related income setting the stage for meaningful future cash flows while preserving our capital base. Our scale, including more than $430 million in cash as of today, gives us significant advantages as we seek to acquire future cash flows to continue to drive value for shareholders.”
Mr. McNulty continued, “I am pleased with the progress we have made. In particular, our book value increased from $5.04 per share at September 30, 2023 to $5.90 at December 31, 2023. Additional opportunities are moving forward, including both public and private targets, demonstrating the significant optionality built into our model, and enabling us to exploit inefficiencies and unlock value from a diverse variety of assets. I believe we enter 2024 with accelerating momentum in our existing stable of businesses and our M&A activity.”
Key Business Highlights
•Generated $92.3 million in consolidated revenue for the quarter compared to $13.1 million in revenue in the fourth quarter of 2022, including $82.8 million in license fee revenue from the Company’s intellectual property operations.
•Entered into an agreement to sell our shares of Arix Bioscience Plc for a cash purchase price of $57.1 million (which represents a purchase price of 1.43 British pounds (or GBP) per share, based on the exchange rate on the date that the parties agreed to the purchase price). The share sale closed on January 19, 2024.
•Recorded $11.9 million of net realized and unrealized gains during the quarter, inclusive of unrealized gains as of December 31, 2023 related to the Arix shares.
•Acquired a majority stake in Benchmark Energy II LLC, an independent oil and gas company engaged in the acquisition, production and development of oil and gas assets in mature resource plays in Texas and Oklahoma. On February 16, 2024, Benchmark entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement to acquire certain upstream assets and related facilities in Texas and Oklahoma from a private seller (the “Transaction”), which will expand the Benchmark portfolio by adding approximately 140,000 net acres and approximately 470 operated producing wells in the prolific Western Anadarko Basin throughout the Texas Panhandle and Western Oklahoma.
