Description: FANG Diamondback Energy September 29, 2025

Diamondback Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FANG) is an independent upstream firm that acquires, develops, and produces unconventional on-shore oil and natural-gas assets concentrated in the Permian Basin, specifically the Spraberry and Wolfcamp formations in the Midland Basin and the Wolfcamp and Bone Spring formations in the Delaware Basin. The company was founded in 2007 and is headquartered in Midland, Texas.

As of the latest quarterly release (Q3 2024), Diamondback reported net production of roughly 1.1 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOE/d), a 7 % increase year-over-year, driven largely by the ramp-up of its recent acquisition of Endeavor Energy’s 250 MMBOE portfolio. Free cash flow stood at $1.9 billion, supporting a dividend yield of ~2 % and a debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 2.1×, indicating moderate leverage relative to peers.

The firm’s performance is tightly linked to three macro drivers: (1) crude-oil price dynamics-particularly Brent and WTI trends, which have averaged $85-$90 per barrel in 2024; (2) Permian-wide drilling efficiency gains, where average drilling days per well have fallen to ~30 days, enhancing cash-flow conversion; and (3) U.S. fiscal policy on energy, including potential changes to lease bonuses and royalty rates that could affect capital allocation in the basin.
