About Diamondback Energy, Inc.

Focused on the Permian Basin in West Texas, Diamondback Energy is an independent oil and natural gas company. It drills and operates wells that produce crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. It also owns a publicly traded subsidiary, Viper Energy, which holds mineral and royalty interests. Its output is delivered to refiners, marketers and midstream companies, and the business is organised around its upstream operations in the basin.

Income depends on the oil, natural gas and liquids Diamondback produces, so it moves with output volumes and commodity prices. Revenue was $17.1 billion over the last twelve months and has grown at 15.9% a year across the last three years. The operating margin is 6.3%, and the business earns 2% on the capital invested in it. Net debt is 1.9 times EBITDA, and the dividend yield is 2.1%. On the site's X-Ray Score it receives 33 out of 100.

Debt = borrowings plus lease liabilities. Cash & securities = cash, equivalents and short-term marketable securities (long-term securities are not counted, so net cash can be understated for companies like Apple). Net debt = debt minus cash & securities. Source: latest SEC 10-Q/10-K. EBIT / EV yield = operating profit divided by market cap plus net debt.
Fair value estimate
$119model spread $100 – $142
Overvalued −41.8% to fair value
Equal blend of three models: peer multiples, a fundamentals-adjusted multiple (growth, ROIC and margin) and a 10-year DCF scaled to the market's average. Earnings-power value (no growth) is a floor and not part of the blend. Model uncertainty is High, so the safety margin is 40%.
Multiples use through-the-cycle earnings (1.17x of the last twelve months)

What this means

Weak business, priced high

Our models put fair value below today's price, so a lot of good news may already be in the price. A high score does not guarantee a good outcome; it shifts the odds a little. Use the checklist as a prompt for your own research.

Oscillators use the usual thresholds (RSI 30/70, Stochastic 20/80, CCI ±100, Williams %R −80/−20; MACD and momentum above zero are bullish). Weekly and monthly views use closing prices only.
