Pampa Energía S.A.: Pampa Energía Announces Second Quarter 2025 Results: Shale Oil Ramp-up, Gas Production Record

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / Pampa Energía S.A. (NYSE:PAM)(Buenos Aires Stock Exchange:PAMP), an independent company with active participation in Argentine oil, gas and electricity, announces the results for the six-month period and quarter ended on June 30, 2025.

Pampa reports its financial information in US$, its functional currency. For local currency equivalents, transactional exchange rate ('FX') is applied. However, Transener and Transportadora de Gas del Sur's ('TGS') figures are adjusted for inflation as of June 30, 2025, and converted into US$ using the period-end FX. Previously reported figures remained unchanged.

Second quarter 2025 ('Q2 25') main results¹

Sales recorded US$486 million in US$486 million in Q2 25², a 3% year-on-year slight decline, driven by lower deliveries under the Plan Gas Long-term gas sale agreement ('GSA') and a drop in petrochemical and crude oil prices, partially offset by contributions from Parque Eólico Pampa Energía 6 ('PEPE 6'), higher spot energy prices and increased export volumes of gas, crude and reformer products.

During Q2 25, oil production rose at Rincón de Aranda and wind power generation achieved a high load factor.

Pampa's main operational KPIs				Q2 25				Q2 24			Variation
Oil and gas	Production (k boe/day)			84.1				90.8				-7	%
	Gas production (kboepd)			76.1				85.4				-11	%
	Crude oil production (kbpd)			8.0				5.4				+47	%
	Average gas price (US$/MBTU)			4.0				4.0				-1	%
	Average oil price (US$/bbl)			61.6				71.8				-14	%
Power	Generation (GWh)			4,704				5,067				-7	%
	Gross margin (US$/MWh)			25.8				24.7				+5	%
Petrochemicals	Volume sold (k ton)			125				111				+12	%
	Average price (US$/ton)			978				1,199				-18	%

Adjusted EBITDA reached US$239 million in Q2 25, 17% less than Q2 24, explained by lower gas deliveries under Plan Gas and weaker domestic demand, a decline in petrochemical prices and higher operating expenses, partially offset by higher spot prices, PEPE 6 and increased oil output and gas exports.

Net income attributable to shareholders was US$40 million, 60% decrease year-on-year³, mainly explained by higher non-cash deferred tax charges and a lower operating margin, offset by gains from holding financial instruments and the absence of impairments recorded on Q2 24.

Net debt totaled US$712 million, representing a net-debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.1x, mainly due to higher working capital needs and continued investments in the development of Rincón de Aranda.

¹ The information is based on financial statements ('FS') prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') in force in Argentina.
² Sales from the affiliates CTBSA, Transener and TGS are excluded, shown as 'Results for participation in joint businesses and associates.'
³ Consolidated adjusted EBITDA represents the flows before financial items, income tax, depreciations and amortizations, extraordinary and non-cash income and expense, equity income, and includes affiliates' EBITDA at our ownership. Further information on section 3.1.
