Exhibit 1
October 22, 2025, Mexico City, Mexico
Vista Energy, S.A.B. de C.V. (“Vista” or the “Company”) (NYSE: VIST; BMV: VISTA), reported today its financial and operational results corresponding to Q3 2025.
Q3 2025 highlights:
| | Total production in Q3 2025 was 126,752 boe/d, a 74% increase compared to Q3 2024, and a 7% increase compared to Q2 2025. Oil production in Q3 2025 was 109,677 bbl/d, a 73% increase y-o-y, and a 7% increase q-o-q. |
| | In Q3 2025, the average realized crude oil price was 64.6 $/bbl, a 5% decrease compared to Q3 2024, and a 4% increase compared to Q2 2025, in both cases driven by international prices. During Q3 2025, 100% of oil volumes were sold at export parity prices. |
| | The realized natural gas price for Q3 2025 was 3.3 $/MMBtu, a 14% decrease y-o-y, driven by lower prices both in the domestic and export markets. |
| | Total revenues in Q3 2025 were 706.1 $MM, 53% above Q3 2024 and 16% above Q2 2025, driven by higher oil production and sequentially higher oil prices. Net revenues during the quarter were 687.3 $MM. Net revenues from oil and gas exports were 414.4 $MM, representing 60% of total net revenues. |
| | Lifting cost in Q3 2025 was 4.4 $/boe, 6% below Q3 2024 and 5% below Q2 2025, reflecting the Company’s focus on cost control. |
| | Selling expenses in Q3 2025 were 4.2 $/boe, an interannual decrease of 24%, driven by the elimination of trucking as of Q2 2025, as the Oldelval Duplicar pipeline became online. |
| | Adjusted EBITDA in Q3 2025 was 472.4 $MM, 52% above Q3 2024, mainly driven by production growth, explained by a 15% growth in our operated blocks and the consolidation of a 50% working interest in La Amarga Chica. On a sequential basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased 17%, mainly driven by production growth, both in our operated and non-operated blocks. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 67%, or 2 p.p. above Q3 2024, as production growth and the elimination of oil trucking offset lower oil prices. |
| | Adjusted net income during Q3 2025 totaled 155.5 $MM. Net income was 315.3 $MM, reflecting a gain of 288.1 $MM from the PEPASA acquisition and a Deferred income tax expense of 119.1 $MM. Adjusted EPS was 1.5 $/share in Q3 2025, compared to 0.6 $/share in Q3 2024. EPS was 3.0 $/share in Q3 2025, compared to 1.7 $/share in Q3 2024. |
| | Capex during Q3 2025 was 350.8 $MM. The Company invested 216.0 $MM in drilling, completion and workover of Vaca Muerta operated wells, having drilled 9 wells and completed 16, reflecting the standard D&C cost of 12.8 $MM per well and adjusted by the actual longer lateral |
Page 2
| length of the wells connected in the quarter. Additionally, the Company invested 105.4 $MM in the development of La Amarga Chica (where 6 wells were drilled and 6 were completed), 13.6 $MM in development facilities in the operated blocks, and 15.8 $MM in G&G studies, IT and other projects. |
| | In Q3 2025, the Company recorded a negative free cash flow of 28.8 $MM. Cash flow generated by operating activities was 303.9 $MM, reflecting the increase in Adj. EBITDA, income tax payments of 179.2 $MM and a decrease in working capital of 42.8 $MM. Cash flow used in investing activities reached 332.7 $MM for Q3 2025, reflecting accrued capex of 350.8 $MM, partially offset by a decrease in capex-related working capital of 16.6 $MM. Cash flow from financing activities totaled 194.7 $MM, mainly driven by proceeds from borrowings of 500.0 $MM, which was partially offset by the repayment of borrowings’ capital of 193.3 $MM and the repurchase of shares of 50.0 $MM.(1) |
| (1) | Cash flow from financing activities is the sum of: (i) cash flow generated by financing activities for 205.0 $MM; (ii) effect of exposure to changes in the foreign currency rate of cash and cash equivalents and other financial results for -8.4 $MM; and (iii) the variation in Argentine government bonds for -1.9 $MM. |

Adjusted EBITDA was 472.4 $MM in Q3 2025, a 52% increase compared to 310.2 $MM in Q3 2024, mainly driven by production growth, explained by a 15% growth in the Company’s operated production and the consolidation of 50% working interest in La Amarga Chica. On a sequential basis, Adjusted EBITDA increased by 17%, mainly driven by oil production growth, explained by robust productivity from new well tie ins.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 67%, 2 p.p. above Q3 2024, as production growth and the elimination of trucked volumes offset the lower oil prices, and 1 p.p. above Q2 2025.

This presentation does not contain all the Company’s financial information. As a result, investors should read this presentation in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and other financial information available on the Company’s website. Some of the amounts contained herein are unaudited.
Rounding amounts and percentages: Certain amounts and percentages included in this presentation have been rounded for ease of presentation. Percentage figures included in this presentation have not in all cases been calculated on the basis of such rounded figures, but on the basis of such amounts prior to rounding. For this reason, certain percentage amounts in this presentation may vary from those obtained by performing the same calculations using the figures in the financial statements. In addition, certain other amounts that appear in this presentation may not sum due to rounding.
This presentation contains certain metrics that do not have standardized meanings or standard methods of calculation and therefore such measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies. Such metrics have been included herein to provide readers with additional measures to evaluate the Company’s performance; however, such measures are not reliable indicators of future performance of the Company and future results may not be comparable to past performance.
No reliance should be placed for any purpose whatsoever on the information contained in this document or on its completeness. Certain information contained in this document has been obtained from published sources, which may not have been independently verified or audited.

This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” concerning the future. The words such as “believes,” “thinks,” “forecasts,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “should,” “seeks,” “estimates,” and “future” or similar expressions are included with the intention of identifying statements about the future. For the avoidance of doubt, any projection, guidance or similar estimation about future results, performance or achievements is a forward-looking statement. Although the assumptions and estimates on which forward-looking statements are based are believed by our management to be reasonable and based on the best currently available information, such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control.

There will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially greater or materially less than those contained in the projections. Projections related to production results as well as cost estimations – including any anticipated performance and guidance of Vista included in this document – are based on information as of the date of this presentation and reflect numerous assumptions including assumptions with respect to type curves for new well designs and certain frac spacing expectations, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control and remain subject to several risks and uncertainties. The inclusion of the projected financial information in this document should not be regarded as an indication that we or our management considered or consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events. As such, no representation can be made as to the attainability of projections, guidances or other estimations of future results, performance or achievements. We have not warranted the accuracy, reliability, appropriateness or completeness of the projections to anyone. Neither our management nor any of our representatives has made or makes any representation to any person regarding our future performance compared to the information contained in the projections, and none of them intends to or undertakes any obligation to update or otherwise revise the projections to reflect circumstances existing after the date when made or to reflect the occurrence of future events in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the projections are shown to be in error. We may or may not refer back to these projections in our future periodic reports filed or furnished under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These expectations and projections are subject to significant known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any expected or projected results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Many important factors could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements, including, among other things: uncertainties relating to future government concessions and exploration permits; adverse outcomes in litigation that may arise in the future; general political, economic, social, demographic and business conditions in Argentina, Mexico and in other countries in which we operate; the impact of political developments and uncertainties relating to political and economic conditions in Argentina, including the policies of the current government in Argentina; significant economic or political developments in Mexico, Argentina and the United States; changes in laws, rules, regulations and their interpretation and enforcement to the Argentine and Mexican energy sectors and throughout Latin America, including changes to the regulatory environment in which we operate and changes to programs established to promote investments in the energy industry; any unexpected increases in financing costs or an inability to obtain financing and/or additional capital pursuant to attractive terms; any changes in the capital markets in general that may affect the policies or attitude in Argentina and/or Mexico, and/or Argentine and Mexican companies with respect to financings extended to or investments made in Argentina and Mexico or Argentine and Mexican companies; fines or other penalties and claims by the authorities and/or customers; any future restrictions on the ability to exchange Mexican or Argentine Pesos into foreign currencies or to transfer funds abroad; the imposition of import restrictions on goods that are key for the maintenance of our assets; the revocation or amendment of our respective concession agreements by the granting authority; our ability to renew certain concessions; our ability to implement our capital expenditures plans or business strategy, including our ability to obtain financing when necessary and on reasonable terms; government intervention, including measures that result in changes to the Argentine and Mexican, labor markets, exchange markets or tax systems; continued and/or higher rates of inflation and fluctuations in exchange rates, including the devaluation and/or appreciation of the Mexican Peso or Argentine Peso; any force majeure events, or fluctuations or reductions in the value of Argentine public debt; changes to the demand for oil and gas in particular, and energy in general, in Argentina, Mexico and globally; the effects of a pandemic or epidemic and any subsequent mandatory regulatory restrictions or containment measures; environmental, health and safety regulations and industry standards that are becoming more stringent; energy markets, including the timing and extent of changes and volatility in commodity prices, and the impact of any protracted or material reduction in oil prices from historical averages; our relationship with our employees and our ability to retain key members of our senior management and key technical employees; the ability of our directors and officers to identify an adequate number of potential acquisition
