Comstock Resources, Inc. reported significant financial improvements in its latest quarterly results, with total revenues reaching $449.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, a 47.7% increase from $304.5 million in the same period last year. The company's net income for the quarter was $118.1 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $25.7 million, or $(0.09) per share, in the third quarter of 2024. For the nine months ending September 30, 2025, revenues totaled $1.43 billion, up 61.5% from $887.1 million in the prior year, driven primarily by higher natural gas prices and increased gas service revenues.
The company experienced a notable increase in natural gas sales, which rose to $307.9 million in Q3 2025 from $252.7 million in Q3 2024, reflecting a 22% increase. The average realized price for natural gas was $2.75 per thousand cubic feet (Mcf), a 45% increase from the previous year. However, natural gas production decreased by 16% to 111.8 billion cubic feet (Bcf) in Q3 2025, down from 133.1 Bcf in Q3 2024. Oil sales also saw a rise, albeit from a low base, contributing to the overall revenue growth.
Operationally, Comstock has made strategic moves, including the divestiture of certain natural gas properties in East Texas and North Louisiana for $15.2 million, which resulted in a pre-tax loss of $2.5 million. The company also reported a significant increase in gas service revenues, which surged to $141.3 million in Q3 2025, up 178% from $50.8 million in Q3 2024. This growth was attributed to higher natural gas prices related to sales of gas purchased to utilize excess transport capacity. The company’s total operating expenses for the quarter were $399.6 million, a slight increase from $365.8 million in the prior year, primarily due to higher gas service expenses.
As of September 30, 2025, Comstock's total assets amounted to $6.84 billion, with total liabilities of $4.22 billion, resulting in stockholders' equity of $2.62 billion. The company reported cash and cash equivalents of $19.2 million, up from $6.8 million at the end of 2024. Comstock's liquidity position remains strong, with $939.2 million available, including $920 million in unused borrowing capacity under its bank credit facility. The company anticipates using cash flows from operations and available borrowings to fund future development and exploration activities.
Looking ahead, Comstock expects to continue benefiting from favorable market conditions, including higher natural gas prices. The company plans to spend an additional $250 million to $350 million in the remaining months of 2025 on drilling, completion, and infrastructure activities. Additionally, Comstock has entered into an agreement to sell interests in producing wells and undeveloped leasehold acreage for $430 million, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2025. This transaction is anticipated to further strengthen the company's financial position and support its ongoing operational strategies.
