Market Focus02:49

On August 6, apache rose 5.41% in regular trading, trading at $36.535/share, with turnover of $169 million. The rally was driven by the release of strong second-quarter earnings and reaffirmed full-year production guidance.

APA Corporation reported Q2 adjusted earnings of $1.89 per diluted share, up 117% from $0.87 a year earlier, largely in line with the FactSet consensus estimate of $1.90. Revenue came in at $2.37 billion, an 8.7% year-over-year increase from $2.18 billion, though slightly below the $2.46 billion analyst expectation. The company maintained its full-year U.S. oil production guidance at 123,000 barrels per day while holding capital expenditure steady at $1.3 billion, underscoring strict capital discipline.

Additionally, management disclosed during the earnings call that its next exploration well is now expected to begin drilling in 2027, pushed back from the previously anticipated Q4 timeline. The significant earnings growth paired with stable operational guidance boosted market confidence in the stock.
