Q2 FY26 earnings call · Aug 6, 2026
Q2 FY26
TL;DR. Matador reported record Q2 2026 oil production of 126,106 bbl/d (above the high end of guidance), raised full-year 2026 oil production growth guidance to 7% from 4%, grew proved reserves 5% to 703 million BOE, and closed or announced four strategic acquisitions (Federal leases, Cardinal Midstream, Paloma, Ridge Runner) at high net revenue interest, while natural gas realizations were sharply negative due to Waha weakness.
Bullish
- + Q2 oil production of 126,106 bbl/d exceeded the high end of the 123,000-125,000 bbl/d guidance range.
- + Raised full-year 2026 oil production growth guidance from 4% to 7% year-over-year.
- + Proved oil and natural gas reserves grew 5% to a record 703 million BOE from 667 million BOE.
- + Closed/announced four strategic catalysts (Federal leases, Cardinal Midstream, Paloma, Ridge Runner) adding high-NRI inventory with expected rates of return exceeding 80%.
- + RBL elected commitment increased by $500 million to $2.75 billion, supporting funding for the acquisitions.
Bearish
- − Full-year 2026 D/C/E CapEx guidance was raised to $1.48-$1.56 billion (from $1.35-$1.44 billion) and midstream CapEx to $145-$165 million (from $100-$110 million), increasing total CapEx to $1.625-$1.725 billion.
- − Operating cost guidance midpoint was raised to $33.00/BOE (from $32.00) driven by higher DD&A from booking Federal lease PUDs and Cardinal midstream services costs.
- − Approximately 9,900 BOE/d (24% oil) of production was shut in during Q2 due to negative Waha pricing and scheduled third-party plant maintenance.
