VIST Stock Recent News

Vista Oil & Gas (VIST) doesn't possess the right combination of the two key ingredients for a likely earnings beat in its upcoming report. Get prepared with the key expectations.

I am bullish on Vista Energy due to its strong financials, strategic partnerships, and significant production growth in Vaca Muerta. Vista's revenues increased by 66% YoY in Q2'24, driven by 40% production growth and high oil prices, showcasing solid financial health. The company's commitment to clean energy and strategic partnerships, like with Nabors, positions it well for future growth and reduced emissions.

Vista Energy, primarily operating in Argentine shale, shows strong profitability and improving margins, with a P/E ratio of 9.24, making it a value proposition. Despite a moderate debt and low current ratio, Vista Energy's growth relies on oil prices and global economic stability, necessitating heavy investments. The company trades at a high price/book value of 3.17, indicating a premium compared to the sector median and YPF, but justified by profitability.

The largest shale play outside North America has proven to be a tough nut to crack over the last decade. The formation is the Vaca Muerta shale in west-central Argentina, which remains to be fully developed despite efforts by some of the world's largest oil companies – including Chevron, Shell, BP, and ConocoPhillips – to make a go of it there.

Vista Energy's 2Q24 results show 40% production expansion year over year and 20% quarter over quarter. The company faces challenges with increasing transport costs due to pipeline capacity constraints and regulatory changes in Argentina. Despite strong operational figures, I believe VIST stock is fairly valued and requires high oil prices for an attractive return.

Vista Oil & Gas, S.A.B. de C.V. Sponsored ADR (VIST) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.74 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.40 per share.

Vista Energia (VIST) should execute a 17% shale oil production CAGR through 2030. Argentina's de-risking has made the company and its Vaca Muerta assets highly valuable. Consensus cash earnings growth of over 30% on a cheap valuation of 5.5x P/E (cash) or 0.2x PEG makes the share compelling.
