APA Corporation (APA) — Financial Snapshot

Income Statement Summary

Metric FY2022 FY2023 FY2024 YoY
Revenue $12.13B $8.19B $9.74B +18.9%
Gross Margin ~45% ~40% ~38%
Operating Margin ~30% ~18% ~15%
Net Income $3.67B $2.90B $804M -72.4%
EPS (diluted, GAAP) $11.02 $9.25 $2.27 -75.5%
EPS (adjusted) $7.68 $4.53 $3.77 -16.8%

FY2022 peak earnings reflect $90+ WTI prices. FY2023 sharp revenue decline from oil price normalization. FY2024 revenue recovery (+18.9%) driven by Callon acquisition (completed April 2024), but GAAP net income collapsed due to acquisition-related costs, increased D&A, and higher interest expense from assumed Callon debt. Adjusted EPS of $3.77 is the more useful profitability metric.

Cash Flow & Balance Sheet (FY2024)

Metric Value
Operating Cash Flow (FY2024) $3.6B
Adjusted EBITDAX (FY2024) $5.9B
Free Cash Flow (FY2024) ~$1.0–1.3B (post capex)

Suriname GranMorgu capex (2025) $200M
FCF Return Commitment 60%+ to shareholders

Key Ratios (approximate)

  • P/E: ~6–7x (adjusted) | EV/EBITDA: ~3–4x | FCF Yield: ~12–15%
  • Revenue Growth (FY2024): +18.9% (Callon-driven) | Adj. EBITDAX margin: ~61%
  • Production guidance (FY2025): ~396,000 BOE/day (+3% YoY)
  • Egypt arrears owed to APA: ~$1.3B (expected cleared by mid-2026)

Growth Profile

APA is a commodity-price-driven E&P with significant international optionality. The Callon acquisition added Permian scale but also debt and integration risk. The transformative long-term catalyst is Suriname Block 58 — the GranMorgu deepwater oil project reached FID in late 2024, with first oil expected mid-decade and gross capacity of ~220K bbl/day. Egypt's new premium gas pricing agreement ($3.58-4.25/Mcf) and clearing of $1.3B in government arrears are near-term cash flow catalysts.

Forward Estimates

  • FY2025 production: ~396,000 BOE/day guided
  • FY2025 capex: $2.5-2.6B (includes $200M Suriname + $100M Alaska)
  • Egypt arrears: ~$1.3B expected recovered by mid-2026 (potential special dividend trigger)
  • Suriname first oil: Expected ~2027-2028 (FID 2024, ~3 year construction)
  • Analyst consensus: Mixed; stock down sharply from 2022 highs as commodity prices normalized
