- APA has scheduled its third-quarter results and conference call for Thursday, November 5.
- Management's preliminary update included production, pricing, buyback and cost benchmarks for the quarter.
- Analyst target changes leave commodity prices, production and capital allocation as key investor variables.
APA Corporation is entering its third-quarter reporting week with investor attention split between revised analyst views and the company’s operating update. The oil and gas producer is scheduled to release results on Thursday, November 5, followed by a conference call at 10 a.m. Central time, according to Morningstar, which republished the company’s October 7 release.
That release said APA expected average realized United States oil prices of 87.50 US dollars per barrel and international oil prices of 98.50 US dollars per barrel for the third quarter. It also cited 36 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day in Egypt tax barrels and a 190 million US dollar pretax net gain on oil and gas purchases and sales.
Analyst targets raise the stakes
Analyst estimates have moved in both directions. MarketScreener’s APA Corporation coverage lists Susquehanna’s October 20 target change to 58 US dollars from 47 US dollars, while the same page reports Goldman Sachs moving its target to 47 US dollars from 44 US dollars on October 27. A price target reflects an analyst view, not company guidance.
APA Corporation stock traded at 42.99 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 10:04 p.m. CET on Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Investors can follow the real-time quote of APA Corporation stock.
