VNOM's Riverbend acquisition expands its Permian royalty footprint and lifts 2026 production guidance, while development activity stays elevated.

Viper Energy, Inc. has completed several acquisitions. The latest was Riverbend. Recent deals, including the Riverbend acquisition, were likely negotiated before the sharp rise in commodity prices. VNOM's acquisition-driven growth is well-timed for a 'higher for longer' commodity price environment.

Viper Energy NASDAQ: VNOM said steady development activity across its mineral and royalty acreage supported second-quarter execution and prompted the company to initiate third-quarter average production guidance implying roughly 4.5% growth from the second quarter.

Viper Energy, Inc. (VNOM) Q2 2026 Earnings Call Transcript

Viper's Q2 earnings surpass estimates as higher production and realized oil prices drive strong growth and lift its 2026 outlook.

Although the revenue and EPS for Viper Energy (VNOM) give a sense of how its business performed in the quarter ended June 2026, it might be worth considering how some key metrics compare with Wall Street estimates and the year-ago numbers.

MIDLAND, Texas, Aug. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Viper Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:VNOM) (“Viper,” “we,” “our” or the “Company”), a subsidiary of Diamondback Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FANG) (“Diamondback”), today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Viper Energy offers a compelling royalty model, strong cash flow, and shareholder-friendly capital returns, but current valuation limits its appeal. VNOM trades at 17x forward earnings with a 5%+ yield, but peers like Black Stone Minerals and Dorchester Minerals offer higher yields and cheaper multiples. Recent asset sales improved VNOM's balance sheet, enabling debt reduction, dividend hikes, and aggressive buybacks, but production growth appears well priced in.
