HOUSTON, Aug. 6, 2025 – APA Corporation (Nasdaq: APA) today announced its financial and operational results for the second quarter of 2025.
APA reported net income attributable to common stock of $603 million, or $1.67 per diluted share. When adjusted for items that impact the comparability of results, APA’s second-quarter earnings were $313 million, or $0.87 per diluted share. Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.2 billion and adjusted EBITDAX was $1.3 billion.
“Our strong second-quarter results reflect the continued momentum across our entire portfolio as a result of the hard work and dedication of the APA team,” said John J. Christmann IV, CEO of APA Corporation. “In the Permian, our progress is evident in the numbers, where we exceeded production guidance while reducing our rig count by 25% due to continued efficiency gains in the field. In Egypt, we exceeded our quarterly gas production guidance and have once again increased our expectations for the gas program in the second half of the year. As a testament to our ongoing partnership with the country of Egypt, we have secured presidential approval for the direct award of approximately 2 million additional acres, unlocking a material amount of prospective oil and gas resource that we will begin drilling by the end of the year.”

Second-Quarter summary
Second-quarter reported production was 465,000 BOE per day and adjusted production, which excludes Egypt noncontrolling interest and tax barrels, was 394,000 BOE per day. U.S. oil production was 124,000 barrels per day; exceeding guidance set in May despite a slight impact from the New Mexico asset sale that closed in mid-June. Egypt reported production was also ahead of guidance at 144,000 BOE per day, driven by the strong performance of recent gas discoveries and the company’s ability to continue increasing utilization of existing infrastructure.
During the quarter, APA initiated its plans to reduce Permian rig count from eight to six, reflecting a sustained step-change in drilling efficiencies. The company now believes it can hold go-forward Permian oil production flat at six rigs, a reduction from the six and a half rigs stated in May. Despite the 25% reduction in rig count, the company expects to end the year with a higher inventory of drilled-uncompleted wells than originally assumed in February, due to rapidly increasing drilling speeds. Sustained capital efficiency improvements in the Permian are driving a $130 million reduction in original Permian capital guidance, while maintaining original oil production guidance, adjusted for the New Mexico asset sale, which closed in mid-June.
G&A and lease operating expenses were considerably below guidance, while upstream capital investment was in line.
Shareholder returns and net debt reduction update
During the quarter, APA returned $140 million to shareholders through its base dividend and share repurchase program. The company also reduced net debt by over $850 million, supported by proceeds from the New Mexico asset sale and positive working capital inflows, primarily associated with payments from Egypt.
To emphasize the ongoing commitment to a strong balance sheet, APA is initiating a long-term net debt target of $3 billion. This target reflects the company’s confidence in the durability of its cash flows, the strength of its asset base, and a commitment to maintain an investment grade credit profile through commodity cycles. The company plans to continue its balanced capital allocation approach and remains committed to returning 60% of free cash flow to shareholders through base dividends and share repurchases.

Cost reduction initiatives
Following strong performance in the first half of the year, APA is outpacing its three-year cost reduction targets and now expects to achieve $350 million in run-rate savings in 2026, compared to its prior goal of year-end 2027. The company also increased its 2025 realized savings target by more than 50% from $130 million to $200 million and raised the year-end run-rate savings target from $225 million to $300 million. The acceleration in the reduction of controllable spend is driven by capital efficiency gains in both the Permian and Egypt, as well as further improvements to the company’s overhead cost structure.
“At the start of this year, we set forth some important goals for reducing controllable spend over the next three years,” continued Christmann. “These initiatives are progressing very well, and we are on the path to achieving significant and lasting improvements to our cost structure. We see considerable opportunities to further streamline our business and simplify the way we operate. Given the magnitude of these opportunities, it is clear we have upside to our three-year goal.”
GranMorgu project update
In Suriname, full-year 2025 capital guidance for the development of the 220,000 barrels of oil per day GranMorgu project was raised to $275 million, reflecting additional milestone payments expected in the second half of the year; total project costs remain unchanged. APA’s carried interest structure continues to support favorable project economics. APA and its partner, TotalEnergies, remain on track for first oil from Suriname Block 58 in mid-2028.
“I would like to commend our partner, TotalEnergies, on their execution of the GranMorgu project since announcing FID last fall,” Christmann said. “Project costs remain unchanged, and we remain on track for first oil by the middle of 2028,” he concluded.

While forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, whether actual results and developments will meet our expectations and predictions depend on a number of risks and uncertainties which could cause our actual results, performance, and financial condition to differ materially from our expectations. See “Risk Factors” in APA’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, and in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for a discussion of risk factors that affect our business.

Cautionary note to investors
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose only proved, probable, and possible reserves that meet the SEC’s definitions for such terms. APA may use certain terms in this news release, such as “resources,” “potential resources,” “resource potential,” “estimated net reserves,” “recoverable reserves,” and other similar terms that the SEC guidelines strictly prohibit APA from including in filings with the SEC. Such terms do not take into account the certainty of resource recovery, which is contingent on exploration success, technical improvements in drilling access, commerciality, and other factors, and are therefore not indicative of expected future resource recovery and should not be relied upon. Investors are urged to consider carefully the disclosure in APA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended Dec. 31, 2024, available from APA at www.apacorp.com or by writing APA at: 2000 W. Sam Houston Pkwy S, Ste. 200, Houston, TX 77042 (Attn: Corporate Secretary). You can also obtain this report from the SEC by calling 1-800-SEC-0330 or from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Reconciliation of Costs incurred to Upstream capital investment
Management believes the presentation of upstream capital investments is useful for investors to assess APA’s expenditures related to our upstream capital activity. We define capital investments as costs incurred for oil and gas activities, adjusted to exclude property and leasehold acquisitions, asset retirement additions and revisions, capitalized interest, and certain exploration expenses. Upstream capital expenditures attributable to a one-third noncontrolling interest in Egypt are also excluded. Management believes this provides a more accurate reflection of APA’s cash expenditures related to upstream capital activity and is consistent with how we plan our capital budget.

Reconciliation of Net cash provided by operating activities to Cash flows from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities and Free cash flow
Cash flows from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. APA uses these measures internally and provides this information because management believes it is useful in evaluating the company’s ability to generate cash to internally fund exploration and development activities, fund dividend programs, and service debt, as well as to compare our results from period to period. We believe these measures are also used by research analysts and investors to value and compare oil and gas exploration and production companies and are frequently included in published research reports when providing investment recommendations. Cash flows from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities and free cash flow are additional measures of liquidity but are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities. Additionally, this presentation of free cash flow may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies in our industry.

Reconciliation of Net cash provided by operating activities to Adjusted EBITDAX
Management believes EBITDAX, or earnings before income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation, amortization and exploration expense is a widely accepted financial indicator, and useful for investors, to assess a company’s ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures, and make distributions to shareholders. We define adjusted EBITDAX, a non-GAAP financial measure, as EBITDAX adjusted for certain items presented in the accompanying reconciliation. Management uses adjusted EBITDAX to evaluate our ability to fund our capital expenditures, debt services and other operational requirements and to compare our results from period to period by eliminating the impact of certain items that management does not consider to be representative of the Company’s on-going operations. Management also believes adjusted EBITDAX facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing EBITDAX from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain operating expenses that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted EBITDAX may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.

Reconciliation of Income attributable to common stock to Adjusted earnings
Our presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures because they exclude the effect of certain items included in Income Attributable to Common Stock. Management believes that adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share provides relevant and useful information, which is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry as well as by our management in assessing the Company’s operational trends and comparability of results to our peers.
Management uses adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share to evaluate our operating and financial performance because it eliminates the impact of certain items that management does not consider to be representative of the Company’s on-going business operations. As a performance measure, adjusted earnings may be useful to investors in facilitating comparisons to others in the Company’s industry because certain items can vary substantially in the oil and gas industry from company to company depending upon accounting methods, book value of assets, capital structure and asset sales and other divestitures, among other factors. Management believes excluding these items facilitates investors and analysts in evaluating and comparing the underlying operating and financial performance of our business from period to period by eliminating differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense and income items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. However, our presentation of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per share may not be comparable to similar measures of other companies in our industry.
