* Generated $1.4 billion of free cash flow
* Paid $545 million in regular dividends and repurchased $440 million of shares

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights and Cash Return
Volumes and Capital Expenditures
From Ezra Yacob, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
“EOG delivered another quarter of strong operational performance. Third quarter oil, gas, and NGL volumes exceeded the midpoints of our guidance. Higher volumes, combined with lower-than-expected per-unit cash operating costs and DD&A, helped drive outstanding financial results.
We generated substantial free cash flow of $1.4 billion, which helped support nearly $1.0 billion of cash return to shareholders, including $440 million of opportunistic share repurchases. As of quarter-end, we have committed to return 89% of our estimated annual free cash flow to shareholders, with the potential to return additional cash over the balance of the year.
Our ability to deliver operational excellence quarter after quarter is the result of EOG’s unique culture and the quality of our multi-basin portfolio. EOG’s foundational assets, the Delaware Basin, Eagle Ford, and Utica, are delivering strong returns, exceeding our expectations. In the Utica, the integration of the Encino assets is proceeding exceptionally well, with continued incremental efficiency gains. Our emerging and international assets are also performing well, with strong well results in Dorado, the Powder River Basin, and Trinidad, along with continued progress in our exploration prospects in Bahrain and the UAE.
Our business has never been stronger. Our pristine balance sheet provides unmatched flexibility to continue to improve our high-return, long-duration asset base while delivering significant cash returns through commodity price cycles. EOG has never been better positioned to create long-term value for our shareholders.”
Regular Dividend and Third Quarter Share Repurchases
The Board of Directors today declared a dividend of $1.02 per share on EOG’s common stock. The dividend will be payable January 30, 2026, to shareholders of record as of January 16, 2026. This dividend represents an indicated annual rate of $4.08 per share. EOG has never suspended or reduced its regular dividend.
During the third quarter, the company repurchased 3.8 million shares for $440 million under its share repurchase authorization. EOG has $4.0 billion remaining on its current share buyback authorization.

EOG typically uses words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “strategy,” “intend,” “plan,” “target,” “aims,” “ambition,” “initiative,” “goal,” “may,” “will,” “focused on,” “should” and “believe” or the negative of those terms or other variations or comparable terminology to identify its forward-looking statements. In particular, statements, express or implied, concerning (i) EOG’s future financial or operating results and returns, (ii) EOG’s ability to replace or increase reserves, increase production, generate returns and rates of return, replace or increase drilling locations, reduce or otherwise control drilling, completion and operating costs and capital expenditures, generate cash flows, pay down or refinance indebtedness, achieve, reach or otherwise meet initiatives, plans, goals, ambitions or targets with respect to emissions, other environmental matters or safety matters, pay and/or increase regular and/or special dividends or repurchase shares or (iii) the successful integration of Encino’s assets and operations or the strategic rationale for, or anticipated benefits of, EOG’s acquisition of Encino, in each case are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Although EOG believes the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable and are based on reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that such assumptions are accurate or will prove to have been correct or that any of such expectations will be achieved (in full or at all) or will be achieved on the expected or anticipated timelines. Moreover, EOG’s forward-looking statements may be affected by known, unknown or currently unforeseen risks, events or circumstances that may be outside EOG’s control. Important factors that could cause EOG’s actual results to differ materially from the expectations reflected in EOG’s forward-looking statements include, among others:
* the timing, magnitude and duration of changes in prices for, supplies of, and demand for, crude oil and condensate, natural gas liquids (NGLs),
* natural gas and related commodities;
* the extent to which EOG is successful in its efforts to acquire or discover additional reserves;
* the extent to which EOG is successful in its efforts to (i) economically develop its acreage in, (ii) produce reserves and achieve anticipated production levels and rates of return from, (iii) decrease or otherwise control its drilling, completion and operating costs and capital expenditures related to, and (iv) maximize reserve recoveries from, its existing and future crude oil and natural gas exploration and development projects and associated potential and existing drilling locations;
* the success of EOG’s cost-mitigation initiatives and actions in offsetting the impact of any inflationary or other pressures on EOG’s operating costs and capital expenditures;

* security threats, including cybersecurity threats and disruptions to our business and operations from breaches of our information technology systems, physical breaches of our facilities and other infrastructure or breaches of the information technology systems, facilities and infrastructure of third parties with which we transact business, and enhanced regulatory focus on the prevention of, and disclosure requirements relating to, cyber incidents;
* the availability, proximity and capacity of, and costs associated with, appropriate gathering, processing, compression, storage, transportation, refining, liquefaction and export facilities and equipment;
* the availability, cost, terms and timing of issuance or execution of mineral licenses, concessions and leases and governmental and other permits and rights-of-way, and EOG’s ability to retain mineral licenses, concessions and leases;

* the extent to which EOG is able to successfully and economically develop, implement and carry out its emissions and other environmental or safety-related initiatives and achieve its related targets, goals, ambitions and initiatives;
* EOG’s failure to realize, in full or at all, the anticipated benefits of its acquisition of Encino and/or business disruptions resulting from the acquisition (e.g., relating to the integration of Encino’s assets and operations into EOG’s operations) that could harm EOG’s business operations (including current plans and operations and the diversion of management’s attention from EOG’s ongoing business operations);
* EOG’s ability to effectively integrate acquired crude oil and natural gas properties into its operations, identify and resolve existing and potential issues with respect to such properties and accurately estimate reserves, production, drilling, completion and operating costs and capital expenditures with respect to such properties;
* the extent to which EOG’s third-party-operated crude oil and natural gas properties are operated successfully, economically and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

* the availability and cost of, and competition in the oil and gas exploration and production industry for, employees, labor and other personnel, facilities, equipment, materials (such as water, sand, fuel and tubulars) and services;
* the accuracy of reserve estimates, which by their nature involve the exercise of professional judgment and may therefore be imprecise;

* the ability of EOG’s customers and other contractual counterparties to satisfy their obligations to EOG and, related thereto, to access the credit and capital markets to obtain financing needed to satisfy their obligations to EOG;

* the timing and extent of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, inflation rates, global and domestic financial market conditions and global and domestic general economic conditions;
* the economic and financial impact of epidemics, pandemics or other public health issues;
* geopolitical factors and political conditions and developments around the world (such as the imposition of tariffs or trade or other economic sanctions, political instability and armed conflicts), including in the areas in which EOG operates;
* the extent to which EOG incurs uninsured losses and liabilities or losses and liabilities in excess of its insurance coverage; and
* the other factors described under ITEM 1A, Risk Factors of EOG’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and any updates to those factors set forth in EOG’s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events anticipated by EOG’s forward-looking statements may not occur, and, if any of such events do, we may not have anticipated the timing of their occurrence or the duration or extent of their impact on our actual results. Accordingly, you should not place any undue reliance on any of EOG’s forward-looking statements. EOG’s forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and EOG undertakes no obligation, other than as required by applicable law, to update or revise its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events, anticipated or unanticipated circumstances or otherwise.
Historical Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
Reconciliation schedules and definitions for the historical non-GAAP financial measures included or referenced herein as well as related discussion can be found on the EOG website at http://www.eogresources.com.
Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
In addition, this press release and any accompanying disclosures may include or reference certain forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures, such as free cash flow, adjusted cash flow from operations and return on capital employed, and certain related estimates regarding future performance, commodity prices and operating and financial results. Because we provide these measures on a forward-looking basis, we cannot reliably or reasonably predict certain of the necessary components of the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures, such as future changes in working capital and future impairments. Accordingly, we are unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking, non-GAAP financial measures to the respective most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on our ultimate results. However, management believes these forward-looking, non-GAAP measures may be a useful tool for the investment community in comparing EOG’s forecasted financial performance to the forecasted financial performance of other companies in the industry. Any such forward-looking measures and estimates are intended to be illustrative only and are not intended to reflect the results that EOG will necessarily achieve for the period(s) presented; EOG’s actual results may differ materially from such measures and estimates.
Oil and Gas Reserves:
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits oil and gas companies, in their filings with the SEC, to disclose not only “proved” reserves (i.e., quantities of oil and gas that are estimated to be recoverable with a high degree of confidence), but also “probable” reserves (i.e., quantities of oil and gas that are as likely as not to be recovered) as well as “possible” reserves (i.e., additional quantities of oil and gas that might be recovered, but with a lower probability than probable reserves). Statements of reserves are only estimates and may not correspond to the ultimate quantities of oil and gas recovered. Any reserve or resource estimates provided in this press release or any accompanying disclosures that are not specifically designated as being estimates of proved reserves may include “potential” reserves, “resource potential” and/or other estimated reserves or estimated resources not necessarily calculated in accordance with, or contemplated by, the SEC’s latest reserve reporting guidelines. Investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in EOG’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (and any updates to such disclosure set forth in EOG’s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K), available from EOG at P.O. Box 4362, Houston, Texas 77210-4362 (Attn: Investor Relations). You can also obtain this report from the SEC by calling 1-800-SEC-0330 or from the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.
