What the Analysts think about MTDR
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Matador Resources stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Matador Resources stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Matador delivered record second-quarter oil production of 126,106 barrels a day and raised its 2026 oil-growth outlook to 7%. It also generated $303 million of adjusted free cash flow in the quarter. (Matador Resources)
Paloma production beat Matador’s underwriting estimate by about 10%, and the completed Paloma and Ridge Runner deals lift its Delaware Basin acreage to around 240,000 net acres, nearly 20% above its October 2025 position. The larger position supports a longer runway for drilling and production growth. (Matador Resources, Matador Resources)
Matador’s first Woodford well averaged more than 1,000 barrels of oil a day over its first 100 producing days and is on track to beat its initial recovery estimate. Successful follow-up drilling could add another source of high-quality inventory and future growth. (Matador Resources)
The Federal lease purchase and Paloma and Ridge Runner deals are being funded with cash and borrowings under Matador’s credit facility. Management expects to reach its 1.0-times leverage target only by the end of 2027, leaving free cash flow committed to debt repayment. (Matador Resources)
Matador cut its 2026 adjusted free-cash-flow outlook from $1.1–1.2 billion in May to about $900 million in August, based on updated commodity-price assumptions. That weaker forecast makes the pace of debt repayment more vulnerable to oil and gas prices. (Matador Resources, Matador Resources)
San Mateo’s $650 million term loan for the Cardinal deal is due in July 2027, while the acquired assets are expected to reach up to $110 million of annualised EBITDA only by 2028. The gap creates refinancing risk before the assets are expected to reach full utilisation. (Financial Times)
