AI Summary
Q3 2025

Efficiency Gains: Expand Energy delivered strong cost reductions and productivity improvements, spending less capital for higher production, notably in the Haynesville where well costs are now over 25% lower and productivity is up 40% versus basin averages.

Breakeven Costs: Management emphasized that company-wide breakeven costs are now well below $3, with Haynesville asset breakevens at $2.75, a significant improvement versus earlier guidance.

Capital Guidance: CapEx for 2026 is expected to be flat with 2025 at about $2.85 billion, supporting 7.5 Bcf per day of production. These cost levels include appraisal spending for Western Haynesville.

Debt Reduction & Returns: Since the merger, the company has eliminated $1.2 billion in gross debt and returned $850 million to shareholders, with future focus still on debt reduction but maintaining flexibility for capital returns.

Marketing Strategy: Expand announced a premium supply deal with Lake Charles Methanol, highlighting a shift from value protection to value creation. The marketing team expects to add margin and sees substantial deal opportunities ahead.

Western Haynesville Expansion: The company secured 75,000 net acres in Western Haynesville, viewing early development as high-potential but still cautious, with appraisal drilling ongoing and a measured approach planned.

Macro Outlook: Management expects strong demand growth along the Gulf Coast due to LNG, power, and industrial needs, and believes the company is well-positioned with its large inventory and market connectivity.

Hedge Program: Expand continues to layer on hedges for downside protection, with about 47% of 2026 production hedged, and sees recent hedging as effective in volatile markets.
