The APA corporation has had a rollercoaster year, experiencing low points and certain periods of stability. Amid market challenges, the stock touched 52-week low at $22.66. However, strategic moves have countervailed some instability, such as expanding its partnership with Palantir to leverage AI technology across oil and gas operations, and a successful debt offer where it received up to 95% participation rates.
The corporation continued to make headway in Q3 2024 with general internal shuffle, including the appointment of a new Board member and a noticeable shift in stock ownership with institutional shareholders owning 86% of the company. Financial fluctuations were also a noteworthy topic in this period, with the discussion of APA's potential to outperform amidst an energy price downturn, despite a rating downgrade.
The corporation further progressed by launching a $1B refinancing deal, selling non-core Permian assets for $950 million, and proceeding with acquisitions such as that of Callon Petroleum. Amid these reshuffles, APA has not lost sight of sustainability, sharing an impressive report of its 2024 commitments, also continued its support for clean cooking business champions in West Africa and has committed to a $10.5 billion Suriname oil project alongside TotalEnergies.
