PERMIAN BASIN ROYALTY TRUST

PART I - I—FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by Simmons Bank as Trustee for the Permian Basin Royalty Trust (the “Trust”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Effective February 20, 2018, Simmons Bank (the “Trustee”) became the new trustee for the Trust. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Trustee believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed interim financial statements and notes thereto be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Trust’s latest annual report on Form10-K. In the opinion of the Trustee, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the assets, liabilities and trust corpus of the Permian Basin Royalty Trust at March 31,June 30, 2018, the distributable income for the three-month andsix-monthperiods ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and 2017 and the changes in trust corpus for the three-monthsix-month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and 2017, have been included. The distributable income for such interim periods is not necessarily indicative of the distributable income for the full year.

The condensed interim financial statements as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and for the three-month andsix-monthperiods ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and 2017, included herein, have been reviewed by Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P., an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report appearing herein.

Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed statementsstatement of assets, liabilities and trust corpus of Permian Basin Royalty Trust (the “Trust”) as of March 31,June 30, 2018 and the related condensed statements of distributable income for the three-month andsix-month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and changes in trust corpus for the three-monthsix-month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes (collective referred to as the “condensed interim financial statements or interim financial information”). Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with the modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As described in Note 2 to the condensed interim financial statements, these condensed interim financial statements were prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Review Results

These condensed interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Trustee. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

PERMIAN BASIN ROYALTY TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

The Permian Basin Royalty Trust (“Trust”) was established as of November 1, 1980. Simmons Bank (“Trustee”) is Trustee for the Trust. The net overriding royalties conveyed to the Trust include (1) a 75% net overriding royalty in Southland Royalty Company’s fee mineral interest in the Waddell Ranch in Crane County, Texas (the “Waddell Ranch properties”) and (2) a 95% net overriding royalty carved out of Southland Royalty Company’s major producing royalty properties in Texas (the “Texas Royalty properties”). The net overriding royalty for the Texas Royalty properties is subject to the provisions of the lease agreements under which such royalties were created. The net overriding royalties above are collectively referred to as the “Royalties.”

On November 3, 1980, Units of Beneficial Interest (“Units”) in the Trust were distributed to the Trustee for the benefit of Southland Royalty Company’s shareholders of record as of November 3, 1980, who received one Unit in the Trust for each share of Southland Royalty Company common stock held. The Units are traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

Burlington Resources Oil & Gas Company LP (“BROG”), a subsidiary of ConocoPhillips, is the interest owner for the Waddell Ranch properties and Riverhill Energy Corporation (“Riverhill Energy”), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of Riverhill Capital Corporation (“Riverhill Capital”) and formerly an affiliate of Coastal Management Corporation (“CMC”), is the interest owner for the Texas Royalty properties. BROG currently conducts all field, technical and accounting operations on behalf of BROG with regard to the Waddell Ranch properties. Riverhill Energy currently conducts the accounting operations for the Texas Royalty properties.

In February 1997, BROG sold its interest in the Texas Royalty properties to Riverhill Energy.

The Trustee was advised that in the first quarter of 1998, Schlumberger Technology Corporation (“STC”) acquired all of the shares of stock of Riverhill Capital. Prior to such acquisition by STC, CMC and Riverhill Energy were wholly owned subsidiaries of Riverhill Capital. The Trustee was further advised that in connection with STC’s acquisition of Riverhill Capital, the shareholders of Riverhill Capital acquired ownership of all of the shares of stock of Riverhill Energy. Thus, the ownership in the Texas Royalty properties referenced above remained in Riverhill Energy, the stock ownership of which was acquired by the former shareholders of Riverhill Capital.

On January 9, 2014, Bank of America N.A. (as successor to The First National Bank of Fort Worth) gave notice to Unit holders that it would be resigning as trustee of the Trust subject to certain conditions that included the appointment of Southwest Bank as successor trustee. At a Special Meeting of Trust Unit holders, the Unit holders approved the appointment of Southwest Bank as successor trustee of the Trust once the resignation of Bank of America N.A. took effect and also approved certain amendments to the Trust Indenture. The effective date of Bank of America N.A.’s resignation and the effective date of Southwest Bank’s appointment as successor trustee was August 29, 2014. Effective October 19, 2017, Simmons First National Corporation (“SFNC”) completed its acquisition of First Texas BHC, Inc., the parent company of Southwest Bank. SFNC is the parent company of Simmons Bank. SFNC merged Southwest Bank with Simmons Bank effective February 20, 2018. The defined term “Trustee” as used herein shall refer to Bank of America N.A. for periods prior to August 29, 2014, and shall refer to Southwest Bank for periods from August 29, 2014 through February 19, 2018 and shall refer to Simmons Bank for periods on and after February 20, 2018.

The terms of the Trust Indenture provide, among other things, that:

8

Basis of Accounting

The financial statements of the Trust are prepared on the following basis:

8

The financial statements of the Trust differ from financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) because revenues are not accrued in the month of production expenses are recorded when paid and certain cash reserves may be established for contingencies which would not be accrued in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Amortization of the Royalties calculated on aunit-of-production basis is charged directly to trust corpus. This comprehensive basis of accounting other than GAAP corresponds to the accounting permitted for royalty trusts by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as specified by Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 12:E, Financial Statements of Royalty Trusts.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the basis of accounting described above requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as of and for the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from such estimates.

9

Contingencies

Contingencies related to the underlying properties that are unfavorably resolved would generally be reflected by the Trust as reductions to future royalty income payments to the Trust with corresponding reductions to cash distributions to Unit holders.

Distributable Income Per Unit

Basic distributable income per Unit is computed by dividing distributable income by the weighted average of Units outstanding. Distributable income per Unit assuming dilution is computed by dividing distributable income by the weighted average number of Units and equivalent Units outstanding. The Trust had no equivalent Units outstanding for any period presented. Therefore, basic distributable income per Unit and distributable income per Unit assuming dilution are the same.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. This update amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of goods and services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Trust adopted this standards update, as required, in the first quarter of 2018, but the adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on its financial statements due to the modified cash basis of reporting used by the Trust.

The amounts to be distributed to Unit holders (“Monthly Distribution Amounts”) are determined on a monthly basis. The Monthly Distribution Amount is an amount equal to the sum of cash received by the Trustee during a calendar month attributable to the Royalties, any reduction in cash reserves and any other cash receipts of the Trust, including interest, reduced by the sum of

10

liabilities paid and any increase in cash reserves. If the Monthly Distribution Amount for any monthly period is a negative number, then the distribution will be zero for such month. To the extent the distribution amount is a negative number, that amount will be carried forward and deducted from future monthly distributions until the cumulative distribution calculation becomes a positive number, at which time a distribution will be made. Unit holders of record will be entitled to receive the calculated Monthly Distribution Amount for each month on or before 10 business days after the monthly record date, which is generally the last business day of each calendar month.

The cash received by the Trustee consists of the amounts received by owners of the interest burdened by the Royalties from the sale of production less the sum of applicable taxes, accrued production costs, development and drilling costs, operating charges and other costs and deductions, multiplied by 75% in the case of the Waddell Ranch properties and 95% in the case of the Texas Royalty properties.

For federal income tax purposes, the Trust constitutes a fixed investment trust that is taxed as a grantor trust. A grantor trust is not subject to federal income tax at the trust level. The Unit holders are considered for federal tax purposes to own the Trust’s income and principal as though no trust were in existence. The income of the Trust is deemed to have been received or accrued by each Unit holder at the time such income is received or accrued by the Trust and not when distributed by the Trust. If the Trust borrows funds to pay liabilities of the Trust, as contemplated in the Trust Indenture,tax-exempt Unit holders could be required to recognize unrelated business taxable income.

All revenues from the Trust are from sources within Texas, which does not impose an individual income tax. Texas imposes a franchise tax at a rate of 0.75% on gross revenues less certain deductions, as specifically set forth in the Texas franchise tax statutes. Entities subject to the Texas franchise tax generally include trusts and most other types of entities that provide limited liability protection, unless otherwise exempt. Trusts that receive at least 90% of their federal gross income from certain passive sources, including royalties from mineral properties and othernon-operated mineral interest income, and do not receive more than 10% of their income from operating an active trade or business, generally are exempt from the Texas franchise tax as “passive entities.” The Trust has been and expects to continue to be exempt from Texas franchise

11

tax as a passive entity. Because the Trust should be exempt from Texas franchise tax at the Trust level as a passive entity, each Unit holder that is a taxable entity under the Texas franchise tax generally will be required to include its portion of Trust revenues in its own Texas franchise tax computation. This revenue is sourced to Texas under provisions of the Texas Administrative Code providing that such income is sourced according to the principal place of business of the Trust, which is Texas.

Unit holders should consult their tax advisors regarding state tax requirements, if any, applicable to such Unit holder’s ownership of Trust units.

Contingencies related to the Underlying Properties that are unfavorably resolved would generally be reflected by the Trust as reductions to future royalty income payments to the Trust with corresponding reductions to cash distributions to Unit holders.

Subsequent to March 31,June 30, 2018, the Trust declared a distribution on AprilJuly 20, 2018 of $0.052172$0.057454 per Unit payable on MayAugust 14, 2018 to Unit holders of record on April 30,July 31, 2018.

Forward Looking Information

Certain information included in this report contains, and other materials filed or to be filed by the Trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by the Trust) may contain or include, forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Such forward looking statements may be or may concern, among other things, capital expenditures, drilling activity, development activities, production efforts and volumes, hydrocarbon prices and the results thereof, and regulatory matters. Although the Trustee believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such expectations are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties and the Trustee can give no assurance that they will prove correct. There are many factors, none of which are within the Trustee’s control, that may cause such expectations not to be realized, including, among other things, factors such as actual oil and gas prices and the recoverability of reserves, capital expenditures, general economic conditions, actions and policies of petroleum-producing nations and other changes in the domestic and international energy markets. Such forward looking statements generally are accompanied by words such as “estimate,” “expect,” “predict,” “anticipate,” “goal,” “should,” “assume,” “believe,” or other words that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes.

Three Months Ended March 31,June 30, 2018 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31,June 30, 2017

For the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2018, royalty income received by the Trust amounted to $9,719,305$7,623,122 compared to royalty income of $9,552,223$7,473,738 during the firstsecond quarter of 2017. The increase in royalty income is primarily attributable to a decrease in oil and gas production of both oil and gas but offset by an increase in bothprice of oil and gas prices for the quarter ending March 31,June 30, 2018, as compared to the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2017. Average oil and gas prices were $56.39and $3.84$60.94 and $3.12 for the quarter ending March 31,June 30, 2018, compared to $46.26$47.14 and $3.16$3.13 for the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2017.

Interest income for the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2018, was $5,476$6,754 compared to $2,282$3,056 during the firstsecond quarter of 2017. The increase in interest income is primarily attributable to substantially increased amounts of funds available for investment. Total expenses during the firstsecond quarter of 2018 amounted to $413,850 compared$581,462compared to $365,457$504,997 during the firstsecond quarter of 2017. The increase in total expenses can be primarily attributed to increased expense for professional services.

13

These transactions resulted in distributable income for the quarter ended March 31,June 30, 2018, of $9,310,931$7,048,414 or $.20$0.15 per Unit of beneficial interest. Distributions of $0.059614, $0.065637$0.052172, $0.054973 and $0.074516$0.044080 per Unit were made to Unit holders of record as of JanuaryApril 30, 2018, May 31, 2018, February 28, 2018, and MarchJune 29, 2018, respectively. For the firstsecond quarter of 2017, distributable income was $9,189,048or $.20per$6,971,797 or $0.15 per Unit of beneficial interest.

13

Royalty income for the Trust for the firstsecond quarter of the calendar year is associated with actual oil and gas production for the period of NovemberFebruary, March and December 2017 and JanuaryApril 2018 from the properties from which the Trust’s net overriding royalty interests (“Royalties”) were carved. Oil and gas sales attributable to the Royalties and the properties from which the Royalties were carved are as follows:

The average received price of oil increased to an average price per barrel of $56.39$60.94 per Bbl in the firstsecond quarter of 2018, compared to $46.26$47.14 per Bbl in the firstsecond quarter of 2017 due to worldwide market variables. The Trustee has been advised by ConocoPhillips that for the period of August 1, 1993, through March 31,June 30, 2018, the oil from the Waddell Ranch properties was being sold under a competitive bid to a third party. The average price of gas (including natural gas liquids) increaseddecreased from $3.16$3.13 per Mcf in the firstsecond quarter of 2017 to $3.84$3.12 per Mcf in the firstsecond quarter of 2018 due to change in overall market variables.

14

Since the oil and gas sales attributable to the Royalties are based on an allocation formula that is dependent on such factors as price and cost (including capital expenditures), the production amounts in the Royalties section of the above table do not provide a meaningful comparison. Oil sales volumes decreased and gas sales volumes decreased from the Underlying Properties (as defined in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017) for the applicable period in 2018 compared to 2017.

14

Capital expenditures for drilling, remedial and maintenance activities on the Waddell Ranch properties during the firstsecond quarter of 2018 totaled $428,000as$167,801 as compared to $144,000$517,000 for the firstsecond quarter of 2017. ConocoPhillips has informed the Trustee that the 2018 capital expenditures budget has been approved at $4.3 million (gross) for the Waddell Ranch properties. The total amount of capital expenditures for 2017 with regard to the Waddell Ranch properties totaled $3.2 million (gross).

The Trustee has been advised that there were 02 workover wells completed, 0 new wells completed, 0 new wells in progress and 0 workover wells in progress during the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2018, as compared to 0 workover wells completed, 0 new wells completed, 0 new wells in progress and 0 workover wells in progress for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2017, on the Waddell Ranch properties. There were various facility projects in progress for the firstsecond quarter of 2018.

Lease operating expenses and property taxes totaled $4.4$6.3 million (gross) for the firstsecond quarter of 2018, compared to $2.9$4.0 million (gross) for the same period in 2017 on the Waddell Ranch properties due to increased maintenance work.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2017

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, royalty income received by the Trust amounted to $17,342,427compared to royalty income of $17,025,961 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in royalty income is primarily attributable to a reduction of capital expenditures by the operator and an increase in oil and gas prices for the six months ending June 30, 2018, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Average oil and gas prices were $58.60 and $3.49 for the six months ending June 30, 2018 compared to $46.69 and $3.15 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2018, was $12,230 compared to $5,338 during the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in interest income is primarily attributable to substantially increased amounts of funds available for investment. Total expenses during the six months ending June 30, 2018, amounted to $995,312compared to $870,454 during the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase in total expenses can be primarily attributed to increased expense for professional services.

These transactions resulted in distributable income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $16,359,345, or $0.35 per Unit. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, distributable income was $16,160,845, or $0.35 per Unit.

15

Royalty income for the Trust for the six months ended June 30, 2018, is associated with actual oil and gas production for the period November 2017 through April 2018 from the properties from which the Royalties were carved. Oil and gas production attributable to the Royalties and the properties from which the Royalties were carved are as follows:

The average received price of oil increased during the six months ended June 30, 2018 to $58.60 per barrel compared to $46.69 per barrel for the same period in 2017. The increase in the average price of oil is primarily due to worldwide market variables. The increase in the average price of gas (including natural gas liquids) from $3.15 per Mcf for the six months ended June 30, 2017, to $3.49 per Mcf for the six months ended June 30, 2018, is primarily the result of a change in overall market variables.

Since the oil and gas sales volumes attributable to the Royalties are based on an allocation formula that is dependent on such factors as price and cost (including capital expenditures), the production amounts in the Royalties section of the above table do not provide a meaningful comparison. Both oil and gas sales volumes from the properties from which the Royalties are carved have increased for the applicable period of 2018 compared to 2017.

Capital expenditures for the Waddell Ranch properties for the six months ended June 30, 2018 totaled $0.6 million (gross) compared to $0.7 million (gross) to the Trust for the same period in 2017. ConocoPhillips has previously advised the Trust that the 2018 capital expenditures budget for the Waddell Ranch properties is $4.3 million (gross).

16

The Trustee has been advised that 3 workover wells were completed and 0 new wells were completed (0 vertical, 0 horizontal) on the Waddell Ranch properties during the six months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to 0 workover wells completed and 0 new wells completed on the Waddell Ranch properties during the six months ended June 30, 2017. There were various facility projects in progress for the second quarter of 2018.

Lease operating expenses and property taxes totaled $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in lease operating expense is primarily attributable to increased spending on facilities and maintenance.

Calculation of Royalty Income

The Trust’s royalty income is computed as a percentage of the net profit from the operation of the properties in which the Trust owns net overriding royalty interests. These percentages of net profits are 75% and 95% in the case of the Waddell Ranch properties and the Texas Royalty properties, respectively. Royalty income received by the Trust for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, were computed as shown in the table below:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

A disclosure of critical accounting policies and the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Trust’s financial statements is included in Item 7 of the Trust’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2018.

18

Distributable Income Per Unit

Basic distributable income per Unit is computed by dividing distributable income by the weighted average of Units outstanding. Distributable income per Unit assuming dilution is computed by dividing distributable income by the weighted average number of Units and equivalent Units outstanding. The Trust had no equivalent Units outstanding for any period presented. Therefore, basic distributable income per Unit and distributable income per Unit assuming dilution are the same.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued updated guidance for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. This update amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition and is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of goods and services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Trust adopted this standards update, as required, in the first quarter of 2018, but the adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on its financial statements due to the modified cash basis of reporting used by the Trust.Trust.

There have been no material changes in the Trust’s market risk, as disclosed in the Trust’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

On May 14, 2013, the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission issued an updated version of its Internal Control – Integrated Framework (the “2013 Framework”) which helps organizations design, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of internal control concepts and simplify their use and application. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Trustee carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules13a-15 and15d-15 based on the criteria established in the 2013 Framework. Based upon that evaluation, the Trustee concluded that the Trust’s disclosure controls

17

and procedures are effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Trust in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Trust

19

in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Trustee to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures, the Trustee has relied, to the extent considered reasonable, on information provided by Burlington Resources Oil & Gas Company LP, the owner of the Waddell Ranch properties, and Riverhill Energy Corporation, the owner of the Texas Royalty properties. There has not been any change in the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting.
