Thesis

SoftVest Advisors, LLC is a private investment firm established in December 2018, headquartered in Abilene, Texas, with offices in Tennessee. It operates as a hedge fund manager and provides discretionary investment advice. The firm's investment thesis is specialized, focusing on two primary sectors: oil and gas, and music royalties. For oil and gas, SoftVest invests directly in minerals and royalties, primarily in Texas, using a combination of publicly traded securities, equities, fixed income, and derivatives. Their strategy includes market-neutral approaches like pair trading and investing in undervalued securities. For music royalties, through its HeartsBluff and Carrizo entities, the firm acquires publishing rights, songwriter royalties, artist royalties, producer royalties, master recordings, and royalty-generating copyrights, focusing on established 'hits' with stable, long-term cash flows. As of March 31, 2026, the firm managed approximately $783.5 million in AUM. They provide tailored advice to private investment vehicles and are SEC-regulated fiduciaries. Typical check size information is not publicly available.
