DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Civitas Resources, Inc. (NYSE: CIVI) (“Civitas” or the “Company”), today announced plans to release its third quarter 2025 operating and financial results after market close on Thursday, November 6, 2025. A conference call and webcast are planned for 7:00 a.m. MT (9:00 a.m. ET) on Friday, November 7, 2025. The dial-in number for the call is 888-510-2535, with passcode 4872770. A live webcast and replay of this event will be available on the Investor Relations section of.

CIVI is in merger talks with SM Energy to form a $14B oil major, signaling another wave of consolidation in the booming Permian Basin.

Civitas Resources is unloading risky assets, paying down debt, and buying back ~25% of its market cap. A 6%+ dividend backed by a 29% free cash flow yield makes the payout look rock solid. With shares trading at a 40%+ discount to NAV, CIVI could deliver massive upside.

Even with low oil prices, this E&P is paying a big dividend.

CIVI's leverage remains high, with variable production guidance, uncertain cost savings, commodity price risks, possible lower-value asset sales and complex multi-basin operations.

Civitas Resources remains undervalued, trading at just 6.1x forward earnings and offering a nearly 6% dividend yield. CIVI demonstrates strong free cash flow, disciplined capital allocation, and cost efficiencies, even amid lower oil prices and sector volatility. Management is executing on debt reduction, aggressive share buybacks, and robust operational improvements using AI and optimized drilling.

U.S. oil hits a record 13.58M barrels per day, spotlighting CHRD, FANG and CIVI as key energy stocks to watch.

CIVI reported a strong second quarter and is guiding for both increasing production and free cash flow in the second half of 2025. The company plans to significantly delever, opening the door for significant capital appreciation due to the Enterprise Value consisting of 60% debt and 40% equity. Near term cash flows are protected by a very strong hedge book through the end of 2025.

CIVI's second-quarter earnings and revenues fell short on weaker oil prices, but asset sales, buybacks and debt cuts strengthen its outlook.
