Viper Energy, Inc. is a Delaware corporation focused on acquiring and owning oil and natural gas mineral and royalty interests, primarily concentrated in the Permian Basin of West Texas. The company operates in a single reportable segment, generating revenue from royalty income on oil and natural gas sales. Viper's business model relies on its operators, notably Diamondback Energy, to fund and execute all drilling and development activities, thus requiring no capital expenditures from Viper itself. The company's strategy centers on generating robust free cash flow, reducing debt, and returning capital to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases, while leveraging its relationship with Diamondback for acquisition opportunities. Viper's asset base is heavily weighted towards oil production, with significant acreage in the Midland and Delaware Basins.

Revenue is primarily driven by royalty income generated from the company's mineral and royalty interests in oil and natural gas properties. This income is dependent on the production volumes sold and the prevailing market prices for oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids.
