Description: NOG Northern Oil & Gas January 10, 2026
Northern Oil & Gas Inc. (NYSE: NOG) is an independent U.S. energy firm that acquires, explores, develops, and produces crude oil and natural-gas assets across the lower 48 states. Founded in 2006, the company is headquartered in Minnetonka, Minnesota, and trades as a common-stock under the GICS sub-industry “Oil & Gas Exploration & Production.”
Key recent metrics: (1) Proven reserves of roughly 150 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMboe) as of Q3 2024, (2) cash-flow conversion around 70 % of net income, and (3) net-debt-to-EBITDA of ≈ 2.2×, indicating a relatively low leverage profile for an E&P player. The firm’s earnings are especially sensitive to U.S. Henry Hub natural-gas prices and WTI-to-natural-gas spread dynamics, both of which are driven by macro-level demand shifts, inventory levels, and Federal Reserve monetary policy.
