Neal Dingmann has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Viper Energy’s impressive third-quarter performance in 2025, which exceeded expectations despite stable commodity prices. The company successfully sold its noncore Permian Sitio properties at a higher price than anticipated, allowing it to repay debt swiftly and increase its distribution to the maximum level.
Additionally, Viper Energy is seen as undervalued compared to its peers, and the firm is expected to continue its share repurchase program alongside maintaining a robust dividend. The reduction in leverage following the asset sales positions the company to potentially outperform its sector, further supporting the Buy recommendation.
In another report released yesterday, Roth MKM also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $49.00 price target.
