Analyzing E&P Valuations at Updated Strip Pricing for

2026-27 Amid Oil Price Volatility

AC1Q26 prints, we thought it would be useful to publish a set of valuation charts for Arun Jayaram

our E&P coverage at updated 2026/2027 strip pricing of $90.28/$77.29 per bbl (1-212) 622-8541

WTI & $3.73/$3.53 per MMBtu NYMEX gas (based on closing prices on 5/19/26). arun.jayaram@jpmchase.com

In this note, we rank our coverage group on key valuation metrics including FCF Zach Parham AC

yield, FCF/EV yield, EV/EBITDA multiple, EV/DACF multiple, and leverage (1-212) 622-5837

metrics. One caveat to our sensitivity analysis is that we have left our published zach.parham@jpmorgan.com

capex and production estimates unchanged, though we note that changes to Pankaj Bhatter, CFA

development plans are possible in a higher price environment. (1-212) 622-3795
