Diamondback Energy raised its 2026 production outlook and increased shareholder distributions in results released on Monday, November 2, 2026. The company said third-quarter oil production averaged 525,000 barrels per day, while total production reached 1.034 million barrels of oil equivalent per day.

Diamondback Energy stock traded at 163.08 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 16:33 CET on Thursday, November 12, 2026. That was 1.84 percent above the 160.14-euro quote recorded in the previous report at 16:00 CET on Tuesday, November 10.

Production targets move higher

In its third-quarter release, Diamondback lifted full-year 2026 oil production guidance to approximately 524,000 barrels per day from more than 522,000 previously. Total production guidance increased to approximately 1.015 million barrels of oil equivalent per day from more than 1 million.

Fourth-quarter guidance calls for oil production of 518,000 to 528,000 barrels per day and total production of 1.025 million to 1.045 million barrels of oil equivalent per day. Full-year cash capital expenditure guidance rose to 3.95 billion to 4.00 billion US dollars from approximately 3.9 billion US dollars, adding a higher spending requirement to the revised operating plan.

Dividend sets next investor date

The board approved a 7.3 percent increase in the quarterly base dividend to 1.18 US dollars per common share. The annual base dividend is now 4.72 US dollars per share, an 18 percent increase from a year earlier. Shareholders of record at the close of business on November 12 are scheduled to receive the payment on November 19, 2026.

Third-quarter revenue reached 5.431 billion US dollars, while net income attributable to Diamondback Energy was 1.603 billion US dollars. The combination of higher output targets, increased capital spending and a larger base payout leaves commodity prices and execution as key factors for future cash generation.
