Magnolia Oil & Gas reported Q2 net income of $181.8 million, a 124% increase year‑over‑year, driven by higher oil/NGL prices and production growth from Giddings. Adjusted EBITDAX rose to $370.3 million and free cash flow more than doubled to $234.6 million, allowing $80.1 million returned to shareholders via buybacks and a 9% dividend increase. On July 20 the company agreed to acquire WildFire Energy, financing the deal by issuing 53.3 million new shares (≈$1.23 billion net) and $500 million of 6.625% senior notes due 2034. Management raised 2026 production growth guidance to 6% but flagged Q3 production to hold near Q2 levels and warned of pricing headwinds and higher interest expense, with results still heavily dependent on Giddings performance. » More on finance.yahoo.com
