Vista Energy SAB de CV ( (VIST) ) has provided an announcement.

On February 11, 2026, Vista Energy reported certified proved (P1) oil and gas reserves of 588.1 million barrels of oil equivalent as of December 31, 2025, a 57% increase year-on-year. The expansion was driven by 255.1 MMboe in total additions, including material inorganic growth from the La Amarga Chica acquisition and Trafigura pad interests, and supported by strong organic development at its Vaca Muerta hub.

Vista’s reserve replacement ratio reached 605% in 2025, or 260% on an organic basis, implying a P1 reserve life of about 14 years off annual production of 42.1 MMboe. The bulk of reserves are concentrated in the Bajada del Palo Oeste and La Amarga Chica concessions, underscoring Vista’s growing scale and longer-lived production profile, which strengthen its asset base and visibility for shareholders in the regional unconventional hydrocarbons market.

The most recent analyst rating on (VIST) stock is a Buy with a $88.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Vista Energy SAB de CV stock, see the VIST Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on VIST Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, VIST is a Outperform.

Vista Oil & Gas demonstrates strong financial performance and valuation, supported by significant production and revenue growth. However, high leverage and cash flow challenges are notable risks. Technical indicators suggest bullish momentum, but potential for a pullback exists. The earnings call further supports a positive outlook, despite some concerns about cash flow and oil prices.
