TXO earnings analysis
What we found in TXO's 10-Q: the parts that mattered, the offsets in the same document, and what the company said about what comes next.
Our reading of the filing · Free to read, no account needed
TXO delivered a sharp Q2 recovery, with revenue up 68% year over year to $150.9 million and operating income of $57.7 million versus a $3.7 million loss; the calculated operating margin improved to 38.2% from -4.1%. The turnaround was driven by Williston production and a 58% increase in unhedged oil prices, alongside lower per-Boe production and G&A costs. Liquidity improved through Cross Timbers asset-sale proceeds and lower debt, although the first half still recorded an $80.2 million hedging loss and management identifies continued commodity-price, inflation, and variable-rate debt risks.
The parts that mattered.
Pulled out of the filing itself, with the figures the company reported.
- Revenue sharply rebounds to $150.9M
- Q2 revenue rose $61.0 million, or 68%, year over year to $150.9 million from $89.9 million. Sequentially, revenue rebounded from $28.3 million in Q1, aided by higher oil pricing, Williston volumes and favorable quarterly derivative marks.
- Profitability turns materially positive
- Operating income was $57.7 million, versus a $3.7 million operating loss a year earlier; the resulting operating margin was 38.2%, versus -4.1% in Q2 2025. Net income was $60.8 million, compared with a $0.1 million loss.
- Williston acquisition drives volume growth
- Production increased 228 MBoe year over year to 2,596 MBoe in Q2. Williston acquisitions added 492 MBoe, partly offset by 201 MBoe lost through the Cross Timbers sale and natural declines in the San Juan and Permian basins.
- Cash generation and distribution capacity improve
- Operating cash flow increased to $49.1 million in Q2 from $26.9 million a year earlier. Development costs were $15.2 million, while management's Cash Available for Distribution rose to $34.6 million from $18.8 million.
- Liquidity and working capital improve
- Credit Facility debt declined to $263.0 million at June 30 from $284.0 million at December 31, while availability increased to $147.0 million from $126.0 million. Net working capital improved to positive $22.1 million from negative $71.8 million.
- Asset-sale proceeds support capital structure
- The partnership declared a $0.40-per-unit Q2 distribution. It also realized $100.3 million of six-month property-sale proceeds; after quarter-end, it received a $95.0 million Cross Timbers distribution, used $70.0 million for the deferred White Rock payment, and applied the remainder to debt reduction.
And the other side of it.
The offsets in the same document — the things a summary that only listed the good news would have left out.
- No risk-factor update; hedge volatility remains
- There were no material changes to risk factors versus the 2025 10-K. However, commodity-hedge exposure remains substantial: derivative contracts were a net $17.2 million liability at June 30, and a hypothetical 10% commodity-price move would change fair value by approximately $29.2 million.
- First-half hedge losses remain a drag
- Despite Q2's $1.6 million net hedging gain, first-half hedging activity produced $80.2 million of net losses, including $44.3 million of realized losses. This materially limited the benefit of higher production and a 27% increase in unhedged oil prices.
- Leverage and floating-rate interest exposure
- Variable-rate Credit Facility borrowings were $263.0 million at June 30 and carried a 7.4% weighted-average rate in the first half. A 1% rate change would alter annual interest expense by approximately $2.6 million; Q2 interest expense was $5.6 million, up 117% year over year.
- Gas-price weakness and cost inflation
- Natural-gas pricing remains a headwind: the Q2 unhedged natural-gas price fell 47% to $1.06 per Mcf from $1.99 per Mcf, reducing quarterly revenue by $6.3 million. Management expects commodity markets to remain volatile and expects continuing inflationary cost pressure.
- Capex and distribution depend on cash flow
- The company expects about $80.0 million of 2026 development spending after incurring $33.1 million in the first half. Management notes it may reduce capex and/or distributions if operating cash flow does not meet expectations, and the $0.40 quarterly distribution may vary materially or be zero.

What they said about what is next.
The 10-Q provides no revenue or EPS guidance. Management expects to spend approximately $80.0 million on 2026 drilling, completion, recompletion and facilities costs and expects, based on current commodity prices and drilling results, to fund distributions, debt obligations and the 2026 development program from operating cash flow and Credit Facility borrowings.
