Vista Energy, S.A.B. de C.V., a prominent player in the oil and gas sector, is known for its operations in Argentina and Mexico, focusing on both conventional and unconventional resources. The company is recognized for its strategic investments and significant production capabilities in the Vaca Muerta shale formation.
In its latest earnings report for the third quarter of 2025, Vista Energy showcased substantial growth in production and revenues. The company reported a 74% year-over-year increase in total production, reaching 126,752 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d). This surge was primarily driven by the operational success in the Bajada del Palo Oeste and La Amarga Chica fields.
Key financial highlights include a 53% increase in total revenues, amounting to $706.1 million, and a 52% rise in adjusted EBITDA to $472.4 million. Despite a decrease in oil prices, Vista managed to improve its adjusted EBITDA margin to 67%, thanks to increased production and cost management. The company also reported a net income of $315.3 million, bolstered by a significant gain from the PEPASA acquisition.
Vista’s strategic focus on expanding its drilling activities was evident with a capital expenditure of $350.8 million, primarily allocated to the development of Vaca Muerta wells. However, the company recorded a negative free cash flow of $28.8 million due to high capital investments.
Looking ahead, Vista Energy remains committed to enhancing its production capabilities and maintaining financial discipline. The management’s outlook suggests continued growth driven by strategic investments and operational efficiencies, positioning the company for sustained success in the competitive energy market.
