<p>EON Resources Inc. (NYSE:EONR) is an upstream energy company focused on oil and gas properties in the Permian basin.</p>
<p>EON Resources Inc. (NYSE:EONR) skyrocketed after the company announced on March 11 that it had expanded its oil hedging position and locked in the recent oil price spikes until the end of 2027, offering a promising financial cushion in the future. EON revealed that its next 15 months are approximately 75% hedged, while the last nine months of 2027 are also now over 50% hedged. Notably, approximately 12% of the 2026 hedges stand at over $70 per barrel.</p>
<p>The plan also includes ramping up production at the Grayburg-Jackson site and a horizontal drilling program at San Andres, which are expected to boost the company’s output in the second half of 2026.</p>
<p>Mitchell B. Trotter, CFO at EON Resources Inc. (NYSE:EONR), stated:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>“We are really pleased to have filled our hedging positions for the Grayburg-Jackson waterflood for a few strategic business reasons. First, having these hedges in place mitigates the risks of unfavorable price movement while providing base level protection for the cash requirements necessary for operating expenses and any potential debt service requirements. The second reason, of course, is that EON is now more attractive to potential future debt financing. The third and a major reason is that having our hedging at this level is a great hedge platform for upcoming production growth via the San Andres horizontal drilling program.</p>
