Battalion Oil Corp SEC Filings

Battalion Oil Corporation reported operational updates after shifting how it processes natural gas from its Monument Draw Field. The company terminated its Gas Treating Agreement with Wink Amine Treater, LLC after that provider’s acid gas injection facility remained offline since on or about August 11, 2025, and used its contractual right to end the agreement due to the continued service interruption.

Following this, Battalion entered into an agreement with a publicly traded large‑cap midstream provider to process its gas at an alternative facility. A facility expansion completed in the fourth quarter of 2025 now allows this provider to handle substantially all of Battalion’s gas volumes from Monument Draw. As expanded capacity came online, gas volumes processed increased to more than 30 MMcf/d, compared with a December average of about 17.4 MMcf/d, and the company’s average oil production rose by roughly 1,200 net barrels of oil per day month‑to‑date in January 2026 versus its December average, improving flow assurance and operational reliability.

Battalion Oil Corporation has agreed to sell substantially all of its oil and natural gas properties in the West Quito Draw area of the Southern Delaware Basin in Ward County, Texas to MCM Delaware Resources for approximately $62.59 million. The sale covers about 6,207 net acres with proved reserves of roughly 8 MMBoe, which represented about 12.4% of Battalion’s 2024 year-end proved reserves. Battalion plans to use the net proceeds to repay amounts outstanding under its Senior Secured Credit Agreement and for general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions and planned drilling. The deal is effective as of December 1, 2025 and is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions and purchase price adjustments; MCM has placed a deposit of about $6.26 million into escrow.

Battalion Oil Corporation filed its Q3 2025 10‑Q, showing mixed results and liquidity pressure. Q3 operating revenues were $43.5 million, with a net loss of $0.7 million, while a net gain on derivative contracts of $5.2 million offset part of $6.7 million in interest expense. For the nine months, net income was $10.1 million and operating cash flow reached $50.9 million.

Cash and cash equivalents were $50.5 million, and total debt (face value) was $213.8 million, with long‑term debt, net, of $186.2 million. Borrowings under the 2024 Amended Term Loan carried a weighted average interest rate of 12.19% in Q3. The company reported negative working capital of $3.9 million and noted it is at risk of potential non‑compliance with debt covenants over the next 12 months, citing a support letter to purchase up to $30.0 million of preferred equity on or before August 31, 2026.

Preferred stock PIK dividends were $14.3 million in Q3 and $34.4 million year‑to‑date, with the preferred balance at $211.9 million. The August 11, 2025 cessation of operations at the Wink Amine Treater facility increased processing costs and reduced production and revenue. Shares outstanding were 16,456,563 as of November 6, 2025.

Battalion Oil Corporation furnished an update on its recent performance by issuing a press release covering its third quarter 2025 financial results. The company submitted this information through a Current Report on Form 8-K and attached the full press release as Exhibit 99.1.

The press release includes several non-GAAP financial measures, such as net income and earnings per share excluding selected items, EBITDA, LTM EBITDA, cash flow from operations, and adjusted general and administrative expenses. For each non-GAAP measure, the company provides the most directly comparable GAAP figure and a reconciliation, helping readers see how the adjustments affect reported results. Battalion notes that these non-GAAP metrics are intended to give users additional perspective on its performance over time but are not a substitute for GAAP results.

Battalion Oil Corporation received notice from NYSE American that its plan to regain compliance with the exchange’s listing standards has been accepted. The company had previously fallen below required stockholders’ equity thresholds tied to multi-year net losses under Sections 1003(a)(i) and 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE American Company Guide. NYSE American has granted a compliance period through November 30, 2026, during which the exchange will monitor progress under the plan and may still initiate delisting if progress is insufficient. Battalion’s common stock will continue trading on NYSE American under the symbol BATL pursuant to an exception and remains subject to all other listing requirements. The company states that the listing issue does not affect its ongoing operations or SEC reporting, though there is no assurance it will regain compliance by the deadline.

Battalion Oil Corporation issued a press release on August 14, 2025 announcing its second-quarter 2025 financial results; that press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K. The filing states the press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures such as EBITDA and adjusted earnings metrics, and that the most directly comparable GAAP measures and reconciliations are included in the press release.

The company clarifies these non-GAAP measures are presented to help users understand selected items' impact on reported results, but they are not substitutes for GAAP and may not be comparable to measures used by other companies. The filing also notes Exhibit 99.1 is furnished, not filed, and therefore is not automatically incorporated by reference. The report is signed by CEO Matthew B. Steele and lists the company headquarters in Houston, Texas.
