Northern Oil and Gas, Inc. (NOG - Free Report) is set to release third-quarter results on Nov. 6, 2025. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 82 cents per share and that for revenues is pinned at $506.36 million.
Let us delve into the factors that are likely to have influenced this oil and gas exploration and production company’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter. But first, it is worth taking a look at NOG’s performance in the last reported quarter.
Highlights of NOG’s Q2 Earnings
In the last reported quarter, this Minnetonka, MN-based independent energy company’s earnings beat the Zacks consensus mark thanks to year-over-year strong production. The company reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.37, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 87 cents. Additionally, revenues of $574.4 million surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $519 million.
The company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in three of the last four quarters and fell short in one, resulting in an average surprise of 23.79%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for third-quarter 2025 earnings has witnessed two upward and one downward movements in the past seven days. The estimated figure indicates a 1.40% year-over-year decrease. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues indicates a 41.43% decrease from the year-ago period.
Factors to Consider for NOG’s Q3 Performance
NOG's Natural Gas and NGL revenues are likely to have improved in the quarter to be reported. The company generates revenues by acquiring oil and gas properties in high-potential areas and then extracting and selling oil and natural gas. Northern Oil and Gas often holds non-operating working interests in wells, which allows it to earn a share of the revenues without bearing the operational costs associated with drilling and maintaining those wells. This strategy is advantageous as it minimizes financial risk while still capitalizing on production.
Income from these operations has been heavily influenced by market conditions, particularly the fluctuating prices of oil and gas. Our model projects third-quarter Natural Gas and NGL revenues to increase 111.6% year over year compared with the year-ago quarter’s level of $498.8 million.
According to our model, NOG's total average daily production volume is expected to increase 7.5% year over year, reaching 131 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (Mboe/d). The daily production volume for oil is expected to rise 1.6%, while natural gas and NGL production are projected to increase 15.5% year over year in the quarter to be reported.
On a net basis, total production volumes are anticipated to climb 7.5% year over year to 12,047.5 Mboe. Net oil production is projected to grow 1.8% to 6,638.6 thousand barrels of oil (MBbls), while natural gas and NGL volumes are expected to surge 15.5% to 32,453.3 million cubic feet.
On a somewhat bearish note, the increase in NOG’s costs might have dented its to-be-reported bottom line. The company’s third-quarter total operating expenses are likely to total $353.8 million, which is up 10.7% from the year-ago quarter’s level. Moreover, its production tax expenses are expected to increase from $14.7 million to $42.4 million in the same time frame. Its general and administrative expenses are expected to increase from $10 million to $12.9 million in the same period.
