- CKX Lands, Inc. owns and manages land primarily in Louisiana and Texas, leasing properties for oil and gas minerals, surface uses including agriculture, right-of-way, and hunting, and timber harvesting. The company operates through three segments—Oil and Gas, Surface, and Timber—generating revenue from royalties, lease rentals, and sales without direct involvement in exploration, production, farming, or timber management. Incorporated in 1930 as Calcasieu Real Estate & Oil Co., Inc. and renamed CKX Lands, Inc. in May 2005, it maintains headquarters in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and holds approximately 14,000 acres focused on energy and natural resource sectors serving oil and gas operators, agricultural businesses, and timber companies. In a significant recent development, CKX completed the sale of approximately 6,548 acres in Louisiana to Southern Pine Plantations for $8.6 million in cash; the company also continues its ongoing review of strategic alternatives announced in August 2023 and updated in April 2024, engaging TAP Securities as advisor amid interest from multiple parties for potential acquisition of the company or assets, with efforts still active as of late 2024.
