Circle April 22 on your calendar
Matador Resources isn’t serving up the results yet, but it did hand investors the date: Q1 2026 earnings land after the market closes on April 22, with the call following on May 7 at 11:00 AM ET. In other words, the company just turned the suspense dial up a notch.
Why investors care
This is the kind of update that matters because Matador lives in the messy, very real world of oil prices, drilling costs, and production volumes. If the company can keep the beat going after a solid prior quarter, that’s a nice reminder that the engine is still humming. If not, the market will be quick to ask whether 2026 is turning into a tougher ride.
The setup looks familiar
Analysts are expecting about $1.19 in EPS and $887.09 million in revenue, which gives you a rough scoreboard before the game starts. For context, Matador’s last quarter topped EPS expectations, but revenue still slid 15.7% year over year — the kind of split-screen result that keeps analysts busy and investors mildly annoyed.
Big picture
The good news: Matador also has a quarterly dividend in the mix, which means income investors will be watching this one like hawks. The not-so-good news: energy names can look sleepy right up until they don’t, so this earnings date is the first real checkpoint for how much grit the company has left in 2026.
