Bull points
- Thank you, Matthew. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the EON Resources Incorporated year-end earnings call.
- 2025 was an outstanding year for us. The balance sheet, more than anything else, reflects that. We raised $45 million in September. We paid off $68 million in debt and obligations, and we realized a gain of $14 million.
- Couple that with we signed a farm out agreement with the Virtus guys based in Dallas, and thanks to all of them, led by Lance Taylor, that added 92 horizontal wells to our drilling inventory that we have high expectations for.
Bear points
- poor year for oil prices. Where we were $13 a barrel below 2024, that impacted our PDP reserves, our revenues, our EBITDA, but not severely. A lot of that was mitigated by our hedging position, which allowed us to hold about $70 a barrel. In 26, it goes without saying, prices are way up.
- dollars revenues did drop to 24, but that's because of a $13 drop in oil price
- impact, and you'll see when we release the financials, took a $5 million hit at depletion and depreciation.
