Item 2.02 

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On November 13, 2025, Battalion Oil Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release with respect to the Company’s third quarter 2025 financial results. The press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The press release contains certain measures discussed below that may be deemed “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In each case, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and information reconciling the GAAP and non-GAAP measures is also included in the press release.

Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, and will not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, unless specifically identified therein as being incorporated therein by reference.

From time to time management discloses net income (loss) and earnings per share excluding selected items as well as EBITDA, LTM EBITDA, cash flow from operations, general and administrative expenses adjusted for selected items. These measures are presented based on management’s belief that these non-GAAP measures enable a user of the financial information to understand the impact of these items on reported results. Additionally, this presentation provides a beneficial comparison to similarly adjusted measurements of prior periods. These measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, earnings per share and cash flow from operations, as defined by GAAP. These measures may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP measures that other companies may use and may not be useful in comparing the performance of those companies to our performance.

Battalion Oil Corporation Announces Third Quarter 2025 Financial and Operating Results

HOUSTON, TEXAS – November 13, 2025 – Battalion Oil Corporation (NYSE American: BATL, “Battalion” or the “Company”) today announced financial and operating results for the third quarter of 2025.

Key Highlights

Generated third quarter 2025 sales volumes of 12,293 barrels of oil equivalent per day (“Boe/d”) (53% oil)
AGI facility remains out of service
Gas Production is being treated by third party
The Company has entered into an amendment of its existing credit facility allowing additional operational flexibility
The Company continues to pursue potential merger, acquisition and divestiture opportunities

Management Comments

Drilling and completion operations concluded in the West Quito Draw with two wells coming online and producing an average of 883 Boe/d over the first 120 days of production. Well operations yielded more than $1.1 million in savings per well across all phases compared to AFE. Both wells are still on choke while flowing back, confirming the significant inventory in the asset area.

The acid gas injection (“AGI”) facility ceased operations on August 11, 2025 and remains out of service. In response, we temporarily shut in a portion of our Monument Draw field and redirected our gas production to alternative gas processing options available in the immediate vicinity of our operations. Currently, we have brought most wells back online; however, approximately 1,600 barrels of oil per day remain shut-in across Monument Draw ready to flow to sales.

Results of Operations

Average daily net production and total operating revenue during the third quarter of 2025 were 12,293 Boe/d (53% oil) and $43.5 million, respectively, as compared to production and revenue of 12,076 Boe/d (52% oil) and $45.3 million, respectively, during the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in revenues in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the third quarter of 2024 is primarily attributable to a $2.24 decrease per Boe in average realized prices (excluding the impact of hedges) partially offset by an approximate 217 Boe/d increase in average daily production. Excluding the impact of hedges, Battalion realized 98.3% of the average NYMEX oil price during the third quarter of 2025. Realized hedge gains totaled approximately $4.1 million during the third quarter of 2025.

Lease operating and workover expense was $11.69 per Boe in the third quarter of 2025 versus $11.56 per Boe in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in lease operating and workover expense per Boe year-over-year is primarily the result of increased water production from new wells yielding higher disposal costs. Gathering and other expenses were $9.02 per Boe in the third quarter of 2025 versus $11.20 per Boe in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in gathering and other expenses per Boe is primarily related to progress made at the central production facilities yielding lower labor and repair costs as well as increased throughput and overall production volumes being treated by the AGI facility during 2025. Although the AGI facility ceased operations on August 11, 2025, we were able to secure treatment at alternative facilities.

1


The AGI facility treated natural gas production from March 2024 to August 11, 2025. General and administrative expenses were $2.73 per Boe in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $3.46 per Boe in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2025 is primarily due to lower merger costs. Excluding non-recurring charges, general and administrative expenses would have been $2.44 per Boe in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $2.58 per Boe in the third quarter of 2024.

For the third quarter of 2025, the Company reported a net loss available to common stockholders of $15.0 million and a net loss of $0.91 per share available to common stockholders. After adjusting for selected items, the Company reported an adjusted diluted net loss available to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2025 of $15.7 million or an adjusted diluted net loss of $0.96 per common share (see Reconciliation for additional information). Adjusted EBITDA during the third quarter ended September 30, 2025 was $18.9 million as compared to $13.5 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 (see Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation table for additional information).

Liquidity and Balance Sheet

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $213.8 million of term loan indebtedness outstanding and total liquidity made up of cash and cash equivalents of $50.5 million.

On November 12, 2025, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Senior Secured Credit Agreement which provides total net leverage ratio and asset coverage ratio covenant relief through the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2027.

For additional details on liquidity, financial position, and recent developments, please refer to Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Risk Factors included in Battalion’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

(1) Amount reflects net (loss) income available to common stockholders on a diluted basis for earnings per share purposes as calculated using the two-class method of computing earnings per share which is further described in Note 15, Earnings Per Share in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
(2) Net (loss) income per share excluding selected items and cash flows from operations before changes in working capital adjusted for selected items are non-GAAP measures presented based on management's belief that they will enable a user of the financial information to understand the impact of these items on reported results. These financial measures are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, earnings per share and cash flows from operations, as defined by GAAP. These financial measures may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures that other companies may use and may not be useful in comparing the performance of those companies to Battalion's performance.
(3) The impact of selected items for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 were calculated based upon weighted average diluted shares of 16.5 million due to the net (loss) income available to common stockholders, excluding selected items.
