Over the past month, PNRG shares rose 30.7%, significantly outpacing the S&P 500’s 1.6% growth.</p><h2>Financial Performance Highlights</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">For the third quarter of 2024, PNRG reported revenues of $69.46 million, an 84.7% surge from $37.58 million in the prior-year period.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The company reported third-quarter diluted earnings per share of $8.80, more than doubling from $4.13 in the prior year, as net income skyrocketed 105.9% year over year to $22.08 million from $10.72 million.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Higher production volumes aided the company’s quarterly results.</p><div class="chart_embed"><h2>PrimeEnergy Corporation Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise</h2><p> </p><h2><a href="https://www.zacks.com/stock/chart/PNRG/price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart?icid=chart-PNRG-price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart"> <img alt="PrimeEnergy Corporation Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/charts/8d/1732113090.png" title=""> </a></h2><p><a href="https://www.zacks.com/stock/chart/PNRG/price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart?icid=chart-PNRG-price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart">PrimeEnergy Corporation price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart</a> | <a href="https://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/PNRG?icid=chart-PNRG-price-consensus-eps-surprise-chart">PrimeEnergy Corporation Quote</a></p></div><h2>Other Key Business Metrics</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Oil production volumes for the third quarter of 2024 totaled 757,000 barrels, a 134.4% year-over-year surge. Similarly, natural gas production climbed 98.4% year over year to 2.14 million Mcf in the reported quarter, whereas natural gas liquids (NGLs) production skyrocketed 144.7% year over year to 394,000 barrels.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">On a nine-month basis, oil production more than doubled to 1.88 million barrels. Gas production rose 81.9% year over year to 5.03 million Mcf. NGLs’ production also upsurged 112.1% year over year to 874,000 barrels.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Average realized prices for oil in the third quarter of 2024 were $74.23 per barrel, down 9.2% from the prior-year quarter. Gas prices averaged 30 cents per Mcf in the third quarter of 2024, a sharp year-over-year decline of 86.9%. NGLs fetched $18.21 per barrel, down 6.9% year over year.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Net income soared 105.9% to $22.08 million from $10.72 million in the year-ago quarter.</p><h2>Management Commentary</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">PrimeEnergy credited its robust performance to aggressive horizontal drilling activities in the Permian Basin and Oklahoma. The company completed 56 horizontal wells in the first nine months of 2024, investing approximately $141 million. This operational push has significantly expanded production capacity, offsetting declines in commodity prices.</p><h2>Factors Influencing Results</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Year-over-year revenue growth was driven by increased production across all categories. However, declines in natural gas and NGL prices partially affected oil revenues. Operating expenses, including production costs, ad valorem taxes and general administrative expenses, rose in line with increased activity levels. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expenses more than doubled in the third quarter, reflecting higher production volumes and recent capital investments.</p><h2>Guidance</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">The company reiterated its commitment to maintaining a strong balance sheet and robust liquidity. With $92.9 million in availability under its credit facility, PNRG plans to fund its capital expenditure program primarily through cash flow and available credit.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">PrimeEnergy plans to continue its aggressive horizontal drilling strategy in the Permian Basin. The company has allocated $84 million for 2025 projects, including completing six horizontal wells currently in progress. Management expects these investments to enhance long-term production capacity and cash flow.</p><h2>Other Developments</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">In the third quarter of 2024, PrimeEnergy divested non-core assets, including 7.8 surface acres in Midland County, TX, and its working interests in New Mexico properties, generating combined proceeds of $737,760. Additionally, it exited the well-servicing business by selling Eastern Oil Well Service Company for $2.8 million, recording a gain of $1.92 million.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">With these transactions, PNRG has sharpened its focus on core operations, particularly its prolific West Texas holdings. The company’s strategy of asset rationalization is expected to enhance operational efficiency and align with long-term growth objectives.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">PrimeEnergy also repurchased 93,130 shares for $10.2 million in the first nine months of 2024, underscoring its commitment to shareholder returns.</p><div class="cta_section"></div> </div> <div id="inline_bottom"> <!-- investing channel adcode --> <div id="IC_M_3x7_2" class="dfp_ad_unit"></div> </div> <div id="third_para_ad"> <!-- investing channel desktop adcode --> <div id="IC_d_div_3x7_1" class="dfp_ad_unit"></div> </div> </div> </article> </section> <section class="commentary_reports_content commentary_b"> <div class="commentary_reports"> <div class="commentary_reports_block"> <br><div class="reports_header"><h1>See More Zacks Research for These Tickers</h1><br></div> <div class="reports_header"><h3>Normally $25 each - click below to receive one report FREE:</h3><br></div> <p class="report_document_text"><a href="/registration/premium/login/?ALERT=zrmodule&mode=zrmodule&t=PNRG&ADID=ZCOM_ARTICLEBTM_TCK_MICROCAPARTICLE_2372987_PNRG&icid=BLOG-Microcap_Article-2372987-free_report-commentary_reports-text-PNRG" class="comm_button newwin"><span>PrimeEnergy Corporation (PNRG) - free report >></span></a></p> </div> </div> </section> <script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "item": { "@id": "https://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/PNRG", "name": "PrimeEnergy Corporation : (PNRG)" } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@id": "https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2372987/primeenergy-posts-yy-earnings-growth-in-q3-on-surging-oil-production", "name": "PrimeEnergy Posts Y/Y Earnings Growth in Q3 on Surging Oil Production" } } ] } </script> <!-- z2_commentary_using_view end --> <!-- z2_more_from_zacks_category start --> <section id="z2_more_from_zacks_category" class="commentary_zacks_news commentary_grid_container"></section> <script defer src="https://staticx.zacks.com/js/zacks/inline/more_from_zacks.js"></script> <script> var articleType = 'B'; var typeId = 0; var categoryName = 'Microcap Article'; var categoryId = 0; var authorName = 'Zacks Equity Research'; var orgAuthorName = 'Urbashi Dutta'; var subCategoryName = 'Microcap Article'; var datePosted = 'November 20, 2024'; var tickerList = 'PNRG'; </script><!-- z2_more_from_zacks_category end --> <!-- z2_you_may_like start --> <section id="youmay_like_container" class="commentary_zacks_news commentary_grid_container you_may_like"></section> <script defer src="https://staticx.zacks.com/js/zacks/inline/you_may_like.js"></script> <!-- z2_you_may_like end --> <!-- z2_published_in start --> <section id="" class=""> <h1>Published in</h1> <a href="/topics/earnings" title="earnings" class="text_capitalize article_tag" >earnings</a> <a href="/topics/energy" title="energy" class="text_capitalize article_tag" >energy</a> <a href="/topics/oil-energy" title="oil-energy" class="text_capitalize article_tag" >oil-energy</a> </section><!-- z2_published_in end --> <!-- End: centerCol --> </div> <!-- End: Main Body --> <aside id="third_rail"> <!-- Begin: rightCol --> <!-- right_panel start --> <!-- In Your face Start --> <div id="featured_zacks_rank_stocks"> <div id="slider"> <!-- Commentary IYF Module A - #669 --> <style type="text/css">#commentary-module {padding:8px 10px; border:solid 1px #717171; border-radius:6px; background:#fff;} #commentary-module .headline {padding-bottom:3px; padding-top: 0; border-bottom:solid 3px #000; margin-bottom:10px; color: #000; font-size:12pt; text-transform:initial;} #commentary-module .textbox {width:242px; padding:10px; margin-bottom:10px; border:solid 1px #cacaca; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:inset 0 1px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);} #commentary-module .input_button {padding:12px; border:solid 1px #bd4600; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 1px 4px rgba(0,0,0,.5), inset 1px 1px 3px rgba(255,255,255,.5); font-size:10.5pt; text-shadow:0 -1px 2px #000; background: #dc0000; background: linear-gradient(to bottom,#dc0000 0,#dc0000 50%,#dc0000 70%,#dc0000 100%); filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#dc0000',endColorstr='#dc0000',GradientType=0); color:#fff; font-weight:bold; cursor: pointer; } #commentary-module footer p, #commentary-module footer p a {font-size:10px;} </style> <section id="commentary-module"> <h1 class="headline">Zacks' 7 Best<br /> Strong Buy Stocks for December, 2024</h1> <p>Our experts picked 7 Zacks Rank #1 Strong Buy stocks with the best chance to skyrocket within the next 30-90 days.</p> <p>Recent stocks from this report have soared up to +67.5% within 30 days - this month's picks could be even better.

This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +24.10% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through October 7, 2024. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations. Zacks may license the Zacks Mutual Fund rating provided herein to third parties, including but not limited to the issuer.</p> <p>Visit <a class="in_copy" href="/performance_disclosure">Performance Disclosure</a> for information about the performance numbers displayed above.</p> <p>Visit <a class="in_copy newwin" href="http://www.zacksdata.com">www.zacksdata.com</a> to get our data and content for your mobile app or website.</p> <p>Real time prices by BATS.
